Zanbamon Preview for Booster Set 5 & Magazine Preview of Omegamon Zwart Defeat

[MarcFBR]

The Digimon Card Game Twitter has updated with a card preview from Booster Set 5 Battle of Omega. This time we get Zanbamon.

Zanbamon certainly isn't someone who shows up a lot nowadays, so getting some really nice cartoon styled art of him that shows him off nicely should make fans of more eclectic Digimon happy.



And on top of that...

From Shonen Jump we get a low color preview of Omegamon Zwart Defeat, also from Booster Set 5!

We knew Defeat would show up in the set, as he was in the initial promo art we saw, but this is the first we've seen of him on a card (and not using that promo art.)

Thanks to Digimon TCG Blog for the image.




Digimon Card Game Booster Set 5 Battle of Omega is scheduled to release on February 26th.

Zanbamon is definitely one of those Digimon I always forget exists, but am happy to see nonetheless.

Zwart D being a Security Digimon certainly surprised me, though it makes sense as he was the Enforcer.

Zanbamon
<Retaliation>

Omnimon Zwart Defeat
[Security] This Digimon does not battle the opponent's Digimon as part of the Security check. Play this card without paying its memory cost
[When Digivolved] Delete 1 of your opponent's Tamer cards
[When Deleted] Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon

 

[MechaMadness]

Was wondering when we'd get an effect that'd be able to outright remove Tamers since it just makes sense as Tamers begin to get stronger and stronger effects. Still, Zwart D just casually walking up and stabbing someone like Tai or whatever is an interesting image to think about. By extension, it's surprisingly wholesome to imagine Armageddemon protecting Arata from being murdered, but I digress.

Anyways, seems like a neat card overall. Feels more like a card that has general value since the payoff for Digivolving isn't as extreme as other Lv7's, but it's cheaper to evolve then most and it doesn't matter if it gets stuck in Security and that Deletion Effect could make trading with it unfavorable.

I don't know how you forget. I'll never forget him in jungle grave. He was so tough and ever since then I have always really liked him.

 

[AppliFang]

Whenever i see Zanbamon it give me nightmares about vsing him in DW3 lol
He was strong xD

 

[Momentai]

Zanbamon. So we have a Kotemon line for yellow and one (or potentially two if we include Tactimon as another Ultimate option?) for purple. I agree it's not the first Digimon that comes to my mind, but this is why it's a pleasure to see it. Interesting 2 cost Ultimate, but there are many ways to get retaliation on a better Lv.6. Althought maybe it is aviable in a turbo Lv.7 deck? I'm not exactly shure, since there is Boltmon which seems better.

Now I hope to see Asuramon soon, I love that guy.

Surprised to see a Security Lv.7 Digimon. It totally makes sense on Zwart D, but I didn't expect it.

 

[Amandil7]

Flashback to being offed by Zanbamon's Hunting Knife.

 

[Lord Bearmon]

Didn't expect a Zanbamon line in this booster. I'm guessing we'll get a purple Kotemon and Musyamon cards as well? Maybe either Asuramon or Vajramon too. (secretly hoping for Generamon)

 

[Mattman324]

Zanbamon's a 2 cost non-Vanilla level 6, that's potentially pretty useful if you're trying to be a fast purple deck.

By extension, it's surprisingly wholesome to imagine Armageddemon protecting Arata from being murdered, but I digress.

It's an Omegamon, he has a natural advantage.

 

[Dynamicmon]

As odd as it may be for Zwart to have a security effect, essentially just dropping in and wrecking everything, that's basically how it shows up in DW:NO.

 

[Ragnalord]

Zanbamon looked like the most ugly thing ever until this card, wow!

 

[Sparrow Hawk]

Zanbamon's art actually look good.

Amazing art of that Omegamon Zwart D. What? Delete Tamer card? lol
