Digimon Card Battle is back with episode 97!



digimoncardbattle_v2_97_01_october20_2022.jpg


Last week was a break with just a news update, but it's back with a new match, which looks to be beginning a series of team matches...




The match includes cards up through Booster Set 11.

The match is Iwai vs. Chiba.

Notable because, if I remember correctly, when they did various matches to show off potential new decks for Iwai, he ended up with going with a deck based on what Chiba used.




Also after the match we get our card previews for Booster Set 12 Across Time during the post match housekeeping (going over products, etc.)

The previews is Arresterdramon: Superior Mode Preview! Not a shock after the run of Gumdramon family cards. He gets some very good actiony art, and appears to be using Blaze Spiker, swinging it's special right arm as hard as it can to break through nearly anything.

Shortly after the episode better quality versions (with sample text) was put up by the Digimon Card Twitter. Both versions are included above.

Arresterdramon SM looks a lot worse here than in the DRB art and the anime. Can't say I'm a fan of this art.

Sometimes I wonder if the non-Bagra'd Superior Mode was just an invention of the anime team and it was originally supposed to just be Arresterdramon xros'd with the arm. It's annoying how this version is the only one Bandai seems to acknowledge.

It was officially retconned roughly 8 years ago, so expecting the original version to ever show up is going to lead to consistent disappointment. It's not like the coexisting redesigns, like Cyberdramon or Falcomon, it's full on a replacement for the official design.

It does become weird how he gains Bagramon stuff...for no reason. No lore explanation or anything, he just gains it.

Arresterdramon continues to pursue his surfing hobby in this card art.

It has an inheritable so I wonder what the intended mega is since his xros with bagramon's armed was retconned into his base form.

[End of your turn] (Once Per Turn) If this Digimon has 4 or more digivolution cards, this Digimon can attack without suspending.

Judging by its effect, he's definitely Bagramon support, which is interesting because the only bagramon we have doesnt have save so it wouldnt benefit from his inheritable. Wonder if DarknessBagramon will have save and if will get a new Yuu for this set.

Or for an example of redesigns that did replace the originals: some of the Digimon World recolors, such as Shamamon.

Maybe he does go Ultimate when equipped with the Brave Snatcher. Though, as we've seen with Shoutmon, equipment DigiXroses tend to just be the same level as their base forms, but it could be an exception.

I guess the parallel will be done by Sasasi.

I would be happy. Gumdramon deserves a dragonic Ultimate form. Brave Snatcher could work like Ouryuken or Omega Sword.
If it is, Arresterdramon will be the digimon to have a mode change after mode change and keep levelling up.

Oh right, I didn't consider Ouryuken (which is kinda an upgrade if you regard Super Ultimate as a stage). I was mostly just thinking of equips as they've usually worked within Xros Wars.

Holding the brave snatcher might not even count as its own Digimon in the first place...
