New Cards are being Released

[Ryna]

The Minhiro page was updated today:

http://www.sonicteam.com/psogc/minhiro/event/event65.html

It seems we will be to find Sinow Beat+, Madam's Umbrella+, Rika's Claw+, and Sonic Knuckles+ starting on the 12th.

Also, the stats on several cards are being changed.

[Skorpius]

Oh, cool. Thanks Ryna.

[Ryna]

For anybody that is curious, here are the database links to the cards:

Sinow Beat+:
http://www.pso-world.com/items.php?op=viewarticle&artid=1843&version=v4&sortby=name

Madam's Umbrella+:
http://www.pso-world.com/items.php?op=viewarticle&artid=1999&version=v4&sortby=name

Rika's Claw+:
http://www.pso-world.com/items.php?op=viewarticle&artid=1853&version=v4&sortby=name

Sonic Knuckles+:
http://www.pso-world.com/items.php?op=viewarticle&artid=1854&version=v4&sortby=name

These cards look like they could be useful.

[Skorpius]

Sinow Beat+ and Sonic Knuckle+ seem to be the only realistically usefull cards. I can see a Sinow Beat team deck, using 2 Sinow Beat+ and 4 Sinow Beat, and a Silfer/Saligun Mag & Assist deck with Sonic Knuckle+.

[Ryna]

What do you think of the new card stats (see front page)? How will they effect your deck strategies?

[Skorpius]

I'll rate them, too.
1 - Good
2 - No opinion
3 - Bad


Cross Scar: (1)
HP: 6 -> 8
AP: 1 -> 3
TP: 0 -> 4

Daggers of death. On Silfer, these will own pretty much anything. I guess this was necessary since Blade Dance was pretty much a less costing Cross Scar. 4 TP? Haha, I can finally make the stupidest deck possible. Tech casting daggers XD (Yes, double strike works on techs if you use the assist card Permission).


Guld Milla: (2)
HP: 10 -> 9
AP: 0 -> 2

I don't get it. The card sucks anyway, it's too high-costing to even be worth using. I guess 2 AP will make it more usefull than before.


St. Rappy: (3)
HP: 13 -> 9
AP: 7 -> 6

Uhm, all right. They should have made this 4 cost if they were going to narf it by 4 HP. Nothing really different here AP wise. It will still serve its purpose in my Rappy deck, I guess, but that HP chopoff hurts a little. I guess Inherit was a little too much with 13 HP?


Mil Lilly: (1)
HP: 4 -> 7
AP: 1 -> 2
TP: 2 -> 3

Well, what do you know? Mil Lily is finally worth using outside of Major Death. ;D Fear my Zonding Mil Lily!


Damage Blow: (1)
Cost: 4 -> 2

Baranz will now pwn you even harder.


Attack 6: (3)
Cost: 2 -> 3

Beat > Heavy Attack > Attack 6. This was the most worthless card change. Attack=6 wasn't that dangerous..


Hand Break: (1)
Cost: 3 -> 2
AP: 0 -> 1

Colors: not red or blue

I honestly have no idea what this means. Does this mean it can't be blocked anymore? If so, then coolness. Also, this was made to be usefull now, with 2 cost and 1 AP, it will probably be nice to use at the end of a special attack combo (like SH attack ;o)


Snatch: (1)
Cost: 3 -> 1

And now, for Endu's "All your EXP are belong to me" trick.


Penetrate guard: (3)
Cost: 3 -> 2
HP: 2 -> 1

This became less usefull for non-Penetrating attacks.


Fix: (3)
Cost: 2 -> 4

I will now go cry in the corner. 3 cost would have sufficed. My Endu deck has finally gotten its first official narf.


Heavy Fog: (2)
Cost: 2 -> 3

Uh, ok. Not sure how this was dangerous.


Only thing I greatly disapprove of is that Rio and Peko are still very unbalanced in a bad way.
Rio needs 3 AP.
Peko needs 3 TP.
And if that doesn't happen soon, then I'll just have to pout some more.

on ragol.co.uk there is something about del rappy becoming avaible in vip is it true?

There has been nothing on the official sites about Del Rappy being available in card auctions. I kind of doubt that it would be true.

[Hustler_One]

cross scar = holy crap

how would you apply these new card stats?

What do you mean? Sonic Team has the power to change the stats on cards for online play.

[Skorpius]

Permission allows -anything- to cast Techniques.

Double Attck effects Tech Attacks.

Silfer - 1 TP
Cross Scar - 4 TP (+1 Assist)
Dengeki - TP assist ;D
Rati - 4 TP (+1 Assist)
Simple Tech - 2 TP

That's 13 x 2 on something XD

It is ok Skorpius. The question was a little bit ambigious. That is why I asked for clarification.

[Chibi_Neo]

I'm so glad that Fix got adjusted; it really screwed up my battles the way my low-cost, high-AP deck would be... completely worthless when an Endu-user used Fix so cheaply. Especially when it was the first time this card had been demonstrated to me... the mistranslation screwed me up so bad...

However, when I saw that Dice +1 was changed, I shed a tear. =X.x=

And... why does the Sonic Knuckles+ card have +6 TP? =o_O= That's... scary.

I believe Chao+ has been available for a while now...

Anyways, I remember seeing that the rarity on some of the cards, such as Standstill Shield+, were going to be lowered.

Please post any other new cards that you find.

Also Renamon, what is your character's level?

My character is Lvl 139, but will increase as i reiz bash for the next hour.

Chao+ was available during last yr's christmas season, however, i never encountered it again since that time. Now it had resurfaced, I had a feeling that Sonic team had lowered rarity for all SS cards with the golden background.


"Update"
Just recieved Nano Dragon+

My theory seem to be right http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

[Ryna]

I played a few battles while eating lunch and received the following: Umbrella+, Indi Belra+, Recon+, and Sinow Beat+

I wonder if it is possible to get 100% now?



<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Ryna on 2005-04-12 09:29 ]</font>

[Renamon]

100% is possible, if you managed to get those uber rare N4,N3 cards. Those cards are driving me crazy!

Well, another hour of reiz bash, here i come...

The uber rare N4,N3 cards should be fairly easy to get. Which ones are you missing?

I have 5+ of each of those cards and they aren't doing much good sitting in my card back. Just PM me with a time and place to meet so I can give them to you. I'll be available afte 6 pm EST tonight.

[Skorpius]

>_>

As a note, I've obtained Madam's Umbrella+ and Standstill Shield+ in the same tournament. After that, I got jack squat.

[Ayala]

Played about 10 matches or so since the update, and have found the following SS cards:

Madam's Umbrella+
Sonic Knuckle+ (x3)
BEARS CANE+ (yes, the card is listed like that, all in caps http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif)
Recon+
Sinow Beat+
Indi Belra+
VIP Card

I'm sure I'll find more, as I just got off work a little while ago and plan to play quite a few more matches tonight.

EDIT: Added a couple new cards, including a VIP card that appeared in one of my most recent packs. ^_^ Not sure if it's appearance rate was changed with the recent update, but still a nice find regardless. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Ayala on 2005-04-12 16:46 ]</font>

[SLON]

I played one tournament last night, and got Sinow Beat+ and Madams Umbrella+. Seems these are going to be very common.
As for Attack6, Skorpius, I use this quite a lot with Migiums/Hidooms in my Caves pack (whether it is good strategy or not is a different question). Having it changed to 3 points from 2 lessens its worth.

[Ryna]

I just found a Windmill+. Here is a summary of the cards found so far by everyone:

Madam's Umbrella+
Hildablue Cane+
Recon+
Sinow Beat+
Nano Dragon+
Standstill Shield+
Windmill+
Sonic Knuckles+
Indi Belra+
Meteor Smash+
Windmill+
Rika's Claw+

The thign with that, though, is tha you could just use Heavy Attack now, because it can be chained without having AP reduced.

I checked the visual BBS of ep3, seem like this is the entire list. Chao+ can be added to it since i notice some Jp players are getting it the 1st time.
I was hoping Sonic team release again those cards from the Rappy and "High Cost" festival. ;<

I have a friend that was able to get the Halo Rappy+ from a recent card auction.

VIP card is not easy to come by. Maybe its high time sonic team made it a little more common.

Btw, any chance counter+, slayed+ etc was released in the past? Not sure whether these are release b4..

The VIP was supposed to be "more common" around Christmas, but I never saw anyone find one.

I think I remember Counter+ being available sometime, but don't quote me on that....

[Ayala]

IIRC, Counter+, Slayed/Thread+, and Gather+ appeared in a couple of auctions I was in around Christmas (of course, I didn't win any of them http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif)

Hopefully I'll get lucky and have something good appear when I use my new VIP card http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

[Domon]

I found most of the cards allready listed along with a Chaos Bringers Rifle+.

[Zalana]

Meh, some of those adjustments weren't even needed. Matter of fact, why even fuck with St. Rappy!?

[Ryna]

Low Cost decks fall to Red Saber, Panarms, and Virus >_>

[Rianna_Type1]

I haven't found a single + card and I have over 1022 wins. p_q

I only played like 10 matches yesterday tho'. First time playing in quite some time.

OH WELL!!!!!
