Hackmon, Blucomon, Herissmon, Espimon, & HoverEspimon Previews for Booster Set RB-01

[MarcFBR]

The Digimon Card Game Twitter (2) (3) has updated with card previews from Booster Set RB-01 Rising Wind. This time it's Hackmon, Blucomon, Herissmon, Espimon, & HoverEspimon.

Reprint previews this time are Hackmon, Blucomon, and Herissmon. They are all promo cards.

Espimon features some nicely detailed art of him setting various Mot Bombs. HoverEspimon features him rushing forward using the thrust from his Stamper Missiles, rather than using them as projectiles.

We don't even have the originals in English yet which is god damn. We need them soon sand should've had them by now as based on release Japan got them waaay before we did (if ever...) If we can get them twice in the promo set and here in quick succession that'd be nice. My deck would welcome the hackmon

I appreciate the throwbacks to MegaGargomon in HoverEspiemon's design. also: nipple cannons!

That HoverEspimon card is stupidly good, it's basically the best Champion in the game. You basically always win its effect

HoverEspimon has no Inherited Effect. I wonder if it'll have a digivolution this set?

Since HoverEspimon is SR, I doubt it will get an evo this set (though Fuhmamon would fit perfectly as an ultimate and it is basically confirmed for this set). My guess is that unless Ghost Game gets a second season or another 40 episodes, we wont see espimon get any evos, which is quite sad. We will have to see if we get Gulus' evos and Proximamon this set to see if they are holding out on some ghost game spoilers. If we dont see them, I would assume they are also holding back on Espimon evos as well.

My guess, HoverEspimon won't evolve further in Ghost Game, but he could in Dreamers.

 

[Eitaroutarouman]

Given the updated intro has Espimon included in the final group shot, I think it's safe to say they consider him a main character (sort of), so maybe it's possible he'll receive a BE Memory down the line that contains his last two evos.

He should evolve to Hover, since it's not in the DRB so they're witholding it for a reason. Could wait till it evolved in Dreamers instead of the anime I guess.
