Digimon Card Battle 52- Starter Deck 9 & 10 Match w/ Booster Set 8 BelialVamdemon Preview

[MarcFBR]

Digimon Card Battle is back with episode 52!

The tournament is over, and everyone is back in the studio for the first 'normal' episode of the show in awhile




This time we get a match focusing on Starter Decks 9 and 10.

The match is Takahashi vs. Maguro.

Before the match they go over some of their cards and other details.






Also after the match they show off Booster Set 8 during the post match housekeeping (going over products, etc.)

​

We get a preview of BelialVamdemon from Booster Set 8 New Hero! (Not a shock who they showed off after previews of an option card featuring him and the Oikawa cards last night.)

BelialVamdemon gets some rather striking art. Both his cannons are firing, he's posing, he has a nice glow with dark lightning going off. It has a nice powerful look to it, and his grin helps add a bit of extra menace to it.

Shortly after the episode went up, the Digimon Card Game Twitter put up a nicer quality preview of the card, but with sample text on it. Both previews are included here.

[Bancho]

I'm not much of a fan of MaloMyotismon, VenomMyotismon is a much better design, yet this might be my favorite art so far this set. The unapologetic use of bright colors works well for me

MaloMyotismon
[On Play] If you have 5 or more cards with [Myotismon] in their name in your trash, delete 1 of your opponent's unsuspended Digimon and trash the top card of your opponent's security stack.
[When Digivolving] Trash the top 5 cards of your deck. Then, if you have a card with [Myotismon] in its name in your trash, gain 1 memory.

 

[Rohan]

Oh yeah, I forgot that this card was revealed today.

That On Play skill is nuts...not because it's that good but because I don't see many people are going to Pay 13 Memory for such an underwhelming effect.

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

Wow BelialVamdemon sure looks so boss in that epic art! I like it

 

[Bancho]

That On Play skill is nuts...not because it's that good but because I don't see many people are going to Pay 13 Memory for such an underwhelming effect.

I get that he wants to be cheated into play by cards like Oikawa but.... this shouldn't be SR, it should have been a budget Lv. 6 boss monster like SlashAngemon or BanchoStingmon were by having MaloMyotismon printed at U or R rarity. Using Pandemonium Flame then activating both of Oikawa's effects is a combo but the result of it still isn't huge for a 3 card investment

 

[Momentai]

Don't forget it can be cheated into play also by arukenimon end mummymon's effects (edit: although then you're playing less Myotismon). The art is indeed well done.

 

[Mattman324]

The main problem you're going to have with Belielvamdemon is that there's four Vamdemons in Digimon unless they print Venom Undead or Neovamdemon Darkness Mode, and three of them are Ultimates. Unless they print a shitload of the Perfect Vamdemon, you're not getting anywhere even remotely near consistency with it. And while it's likely they'll print more, of the currently extant ones:

~One is a vanilla.
~One is a promo with an ability that probably isn't worth playing it over the vanilla for.
~One has Vamdemon support, but only really notably in decks that have a lot of a specific ability as well, which a number of the other Vamdemon cards will not, though this is at least itself supported by Starter Deck Venomvamdemon.

Unless they get something to smooth consistency over, and preferably some lower level forms (this card game is going to have to make new Digimon eventually!), I don't think this strategy has legs.


(Also, we still don't have Neovamdemon in this game, so like)
