Fun Digica 69- Booster Set 5 Card Previews

[MarcFBR]

Man, there has been a lot of stuff tonight...

Episode 69 of Fun Digica just went up

The new episode of Fun Digica has Cody and Hideyoshi introduce 7 cards from Booster Set 5 Battle of Omega!


Jump right into the cards. We haven't seen any of these cards, although we did get art previews of 2 of them awhile ago...

​

We start with OmegaShoutmon, who gets some nice art of him doing his attack 'Omega the Fusion', featuring him attacking with an aura of Omegamon.
Then we get option card Absolute Blast, featuring Hexeblaumon charging a shot of absolute zero cold from the dragon on his shoulder.
Tactimon features the well liked Digimon leading an evil army with a great villainous leader pose.
Taichi and Yamato is a dual character white tamer card featuring both characters in the art-style from Adventure:
MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode features MetalGreymon firing the Positron Blaster from the Alterous arm.
WereGarurumon: Sagittarius Mode features WereGarurumon using some of his Sagittarius wing blades as weapons.
Rafflesimon shows her firing her Ballet Gun, likely aiming for the various reflectors she has setup to create a web of lasers.




Another batch of cards that all look really nice.

[DragonicEmperor]

That Tactimon and Rafflesimon artwork is dope.

Alterous and Sagittarius Mode look so much better in these arts than they have ever done in the show. Even though MetalGreymon's pose now just full on is RizeGreymon vibes. (And basically taking away the one difference they had over each other between cannon and metal claw. Guess one of the two is still buff.)

Also goddamn, Absolute Blast. HexeBlaumon is amazing. I love the attention it's getting. Hopefully we get way more. (Witchelny one day. One day for sure.)

 

[Tarama]

Seeing that OmegaShoutmon card made me realize that Shoutmon DX is more-greymon than Omegamon himself.

Rafflesimon. Shouldn't she be Level 7?

 

[Muur]

Some nice cameos in that Tactimon card. We rarely see Tekkamon! Not even in the DRB.

Rafflesiamon nice. Sad she's not a lv7, oh well.

Hopefully that OmniShoutmon doesn't have a warp evolution clause... if it does, no King.

 

[Amandil7]

The artwork is next level as usual, I wish Raflessimon was level 7 but I guess she can evolve from both level 5 and level 6 Digimon, same mechanic for the two mode digimon, which gives more flexibility in terms of evolution.

 

[Rohan]

Damn, they've been throwing so much at us today. I'll have to take some time to think before giving some in depth thoughts.

Hopefully that OmniShoutmon doesn't have a warp evolution clause... if it does, no King.

It does, but I personally don't see that as excluding King since OmegaShoutmon can still evolve from a LV4 normally so I reckon they'll throw him in.

 

[Muur]

So he warps from Shoutmon? My reaction: nooooooooooooo. King Shoutmon was all I wanted from this set. Bandai plz Ive been a good boy this year.

 

[Geode]

You really like Shoutmon king don’t you, I get it he is a champion but they probably felt that it looks to much like the rookie like Icemon look like Gotsumon but it still might show up and the card of Tactimon is awesome wish they put Ghoulmon and Skullmammothmon in Fusion.

Because it makes things easier. Shoutmon to OmniShoutmon in the games is a pain in the ass. Needs a level 86 rookie Shoutmon to get to OSmon in cyber slueth. Rookies are meant to evolve around lv15.

And on top of that, Shoutmon > King Shoutmon > OSmon > Shoutmon DX is a nice four stage full evolution line. Whilst king isn't changed much I think using it allows more potential and makes things easier in other media so I'd like them to fully establish it rather than it being stuck in the DRB. having king in CS would've made his evolution less painful.

 

[Momentai]

I ag

Rafflesiamon nice. Sad she's not a lv7, oh well.

Agree. I can see this mechanic being applied also for Saver's Bust Modes, but maybe they'll introduce something original.

Btw she is very beautiful. Actually there's not a single arwork among these that doesn't look particulary good.

I personally think they should use red Veedramon as Shoutmon’s champion like in DWNO, in CS but you’re right, still could imagine Shoutmon Digivolve to King Shoutmon and battle Argomon Champion in the anime I don’t think that feels right since it’s still the size of Gatomon.

 

[McGann]

Yes! I've been waiting on Rafflesimon. Really lovely art!
I was expecting her to be a Lvl.7 too, but still awesome none the less. Guess this makes sense given her treatment as a Mega in the V-Pets.
Tactimon was an unexpected but welcome surprise too

 

[MechaMadness]

God, I love the artwork on Absolute Blast, it's absolutely stellar. I also just appreciate that Evolution Removal can finally translate into a form of actual Digimon removal with this card, and the best form of removal at that. Plus the CrysPaledramon and Sora/Joe reveal earlier just makes me a super happy camper, love that they're really going in on supporting that style of Blue in this set.

Neat to see Rafflesimon, and I think it's a really cool concept to have a Lv6 be able to evolve into itself to amass more materials for DigiBurst, think that's rather cool and plays well into Green being more DigiBurst-focused then the other colors.

The other two standouts to me are OmegaShoutmon and Tactimon, just because they're rather interesting and unique cards. I doubt OmegaShoutmon being able to Warp from regular Shoutmon deconfirms Shoutmon King since OmegaShoutmon can evolve naturally from a Lv4 anyways, plus I somewhat doubt they'd leave us without a Lv4 to excavate off Shoutmon's On Play effects unless they just give us a generic Lv4 with Advance/Blitz for that role.

Overall, alot of super neat cards got revealed recently, so I'm really excited for the rest of the set.

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

Seeing Hexeblaumon's chest having the normal clothes under the armor made me like him even more. I thought it's just same armor as Royal Knights but nope you can see he wears the normal clothes even crystal necklace. Absolute Blast indeed!

Oooh finally Rafflesimon! Lv6...? What the...?! Isn't she jogress of Rosemon/Lotusmon?! Hmm she better have powerful effects!

Tekkamon, SkullMammon, Gokumon, SkullSatamon, and Gigadramon nice. Tekkamon showed up yo

 

[doublewizard]

These cards are very nice! I noticed in the top right corner of Tactimon’s card you can see a little bit of SkullSatamon’s leg. There’s also a black feather/ wing in the top left, any ideas whose it could be, because I can’t figure it out?

 

[TMS]

We were just talking about that in the Discord. Saberdramon is my guess.

 

[YongYoKyo]

It is a bit weird seeing Rafflesimon as a Lv.6 that can alternatively evolve from other Lv.6's, but it does give the appearance of two different Green evolution-sources.

I like that they incorporated Magical Witches' Aquary emblem in Hexeblaumon's attack.

Because it makes things easier. Shoutmon to OmniShoutmon in the games is a pain in the ass. Needs a level 86 rookie Shoutmon to get to OSmon in cyber slueth. Rookies are meant to evolve around lv15.

And on top of that, Shoutmon > King Shoutmon > OSmon > Shoutmon DX is a nice four stage full evolution line. Whilst king isn't changed much I think using it allows more potential and makes things easier in other media so I'd like them to fully establish it rather than it being stuck in the DRB. having king in CS would've made his evolution less painful.

The statistical gameplay-elements of Cyber Sleuth or other video games is irrelevant to the Card Game, and vice versa. OmegaShoutmon has "warp"-evolved from Shoutmon in the first two seasons of Xros Wars, so why should that option of evolution be excluded just because of gameplay issues from a completely different media?

Not to mention, if you were going for a non-Xros evolution line, Shoutmon DX is a Xros (and similarly follows the Shoutmon XX naming-scheme). If evolution levels are an issue, they can always just use X3 > X5 > X7, similar to what the Pendulum Z did.

 

[Krverde]

Rafflesimon! Finally! I've been waiting for that one for a while, the only other cards I'll be looking forward to now are the PenZ II mons and the KoKabuterimon line, can't wait to see the rest of the set

 

[Rohan]

Okay I'm back, with some thoughts.

OmegaShoutmon continues the trend of the Shoutmon-line being ridiculous and I love it.
Tactimon is weird in a very tactical (hah) way. Being able to choose from a variety of effects when you attack is a nice compromise to being the only Digimon on the field. I am curious as to who he'll be Evolving from (other than Troopmon as his Adult Level). The 20th Pendulum has Troopmon either being able to go from Impmon or Phascomon so I presume it'll be the latter with a branching path for Belphemon as the obligatory SGDL for this Set maybe?
Not a huge lot to say about Taichi/Yamato other than I wish the art was a little more dynamic for the Tamers -maybe have the pair riding Omegamon or something? There's six potential slots left which makes me wonder if we're going to have a normal Colour (single) Tamer in this Set?
Lastly, Rafflesimon be looking an absolute beauty. Her being able to Evolve up from a LV6 is certainly a useful tool for building up DigiBurst and she even punishes your opponent for using it which is cool.

 

[Santaskid]

Gotta say while I'm a little surprised/sad that Rafflesi is a 6 and not a 7 I get it. so far we've got what Zwart, Alter S, Omega, and RagnaLord for the 7s right? I'm probably forgetting one or two confirmed but yeah. They all obviously have a similar vibe Oh Chaosmon I think was a 7 alo right?

7 are obviosuly meant to be special and I kinda feel like maybe Rafflesi was originally designed as just another plant mega only to be expanded upon as a combination of Rose and Lotus down the road rather than being designed as such- i mean maybe she was designed as such but visually she doesn't feel like she was. However while I understand they want 7s to be more specal and such the fact that she's relegated to being a 6 feels a little sad... like come on are the other 7s afraid of some female representation that they needed to keep her at 6?

Upside at least she can evolve from a 6 so while technically she's still a 6 she's close enough (how dare they descriminate against her )
