Finally, CAN:D has all the Attributes! Now we just need to get that WIND Dian Keto’s Boss Monster.
About the Monster, it’s a good way to facilitate Fusion Summon, specifically the Fusion Monsters focused on CAN:D.
And well, I think it’s safe to say that several Romin’s cards (CAN:D or Vi-FRND) will be printed here.
Now wait for new card for each main characters
Yuga
Luke
Gakuto
Yudias
Yuamu
Yuhi
Zuwijo
Manabu
And maybe for Nail, Roa and Asama
Though you have to play a copy of the original and it must be in your GY at activation, Eb:D is still an amazing Fusion Substitute. It’s balanced around being part of a Deck focused on Special Summoning Level 7 Psychic monstets, so it’s a bit easier to use than Mask Master, who needs a bit more set up. Stellalizer is comparatively harder to bring out and its name change effect is limited only to being Fusion Summoned with Fusion. She can even optionally recover Fusion or CAN:D, and both are designed to make it easier to go into LIVE if you have Psypickupper in the GY.
Back Beat alt art makes sense. Konami has been pushing V-FRND for a while, we got another woman only alt art in The Secret of Manifestation, and to my knowledge had been used in the meta in the past which makes sense since most of the reprints in here are competitive based. Even Eb:D may be a reference to Melo:D’s prominence in the Thunderbold meta.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s something for Vi-FRND in this Anniversary Pack or in “Accel Road of the Attack”
In fact, I’m increasingly thinking that “Accel Road of the Attack” will be a Pack to reinforce/improve Decks that came in SEVENS Era.
Yes! More CAN:D support!
