Card of the day - Tsukuyomi the full moon godess

Today's card of the day is the new 11k oracle think tank Full Moon Goddess, Tsukuyomi

This card's ability requires the previous versions of this card within soul, otherwise the card loses 2k power.



The second ability allows the player to draw two cards during the main phase and send one card to soul from hand, if there is six or more soul underneath tsukuyomi, this is easily acheived by chaining through the abilities of the previous versions(links above).

If i were to run this deck, i would start with a god hawk as the grade 0 vanguard, 4 of each moon godess.

Which leaves you room for your triggers of choice, another 3 grade 3, 10 grade 1 and 8 grade 2, if you were to go by normal distributions, those would be entirely up to your own choice, howver i'd reccomend CEO amaterasu as your 2nd grade 3, Luck birds in grade 1 and silent tom in grade 2.

Card Of The Day

Today's card of the day is Godhawk, Ichibyoshi

This card is the new Grade 0 Oracle Think Tank, that allows a combo into the Tsukuyomi cards, replacing Lozenge Magus(Or Circle Magus for those lucky enough to have pulled or sniped one) as a grade 0 starting card, however effectively taking up a space as a grade 0 in deck.

For those of you who don't read japanese, the card allows you to reveal the top five cards of your deck, and if the grade 1 card "Crescent Moon Goddess, Tsukuyomi" is revealed, you are able to freely ride it over the grade 0, this starts a chain of the same effect, meaning a +1 card if you are able to find the card within the mill, this activates right after draw phase and you are able to ride normally if the grade 1 is revealed, however you are unable to ride again if you did ride the grade 1 from the revealed cards.

As for the usage of this card, it is 100% needed as the starting vanguard if you are running a Tsukuyomi deck that is being released within the third booster set in a weeks time.

Pluses for running this card 
 You are able to use Tsukuyomi's ability
 plus 1 chains of riding into Tsukuyomi(i.e. extra cards in hand if successful)
 the heal triggers start in deck.
 Extra soul
Minuses for running this card
No extra boost from riding over initial vanguard
Minus one in deckspace

As you can see, this card is much needed in the Oracle think tank deck that plans to run the Tsukuyomi chain.

Nova Grapplers + Kagero Deck.

So back when Descent of the knight king came out i had an idea of a deck that ran 12 critical triggers and 4 heal triggers, it worked fine enough and even got me 2nd place in a tourney that i entered out of pure luck. To further thism when Wild Dragon Soul Dance came out, i turned the deck into a fun deck that was just for fun, capitalizing on my 16 crit tirggers, crazy right?

The decklist is below:



Grade 0: 17
4 x Shining lady
4 x Red Lightning
4 x Tahr embodiment of the spear
4 x Demonic Dragon Mage Raksha
1 x Lizard Soldier Conroe

Grade 1: 14
 4 x Dragon Monk Gojo
4 x Embodiment of Armor Bahr
4 x Queen Of Hearts
2 x Twin Blader

Grade 2 : 12
4 x Nehalem
4 x King of Swords
4 x NGM Prototype

Grade 3: 7
4 x Mr. Invincible
3 x Dragonic Overlord.

My deck capitalizes on having a Mr. Invincible in the vanguard circle to unflip damage in an attempt to use Dragonic Overlord's counter blast ability, while the rest of the deck pushes for power in addition to critical hits to hit the opponent where it hurts.

rpgcaster, a friend of mine has started a series called "Cardfight Tips", this video tutorial shows the exceptional broken-ness of the card CEO Amaterasu.

Card Of The Day

So to commemorate the creation of the blog, I will take a look and review today's card of the day, though once i saw it i was dissapointed, as the card is just the null guard.

As you may know, Bushiroad publishes and releases a preview card of the day every weekday, today's card of the day is "March Rabbit of the Nightmare Nation"
So it's your basic null guard for the new Dark Irregular clan, a must have in any dark irregular deck. Nothing too exciting for now.

Creation Successful.

I have created this blog to share information about the Japanese TCG created by Bushiroad named Cardfight Vanguard, future posts will include Decklists, card opinions and such.

Hope you enjoy your stay.
