Trial Deck 10 + 11

Infodump.

I wanted a new dragon something as cool as navalgazer but I'll settle for a break ride from the same artist as Solitary Liberator.

(I am going absolutely ballistic on each ShadowPala revealed and you can't stop me.)

So, the new clan is already f****** badass.

f***. Yes.

The new clan is supposedly called Link Joker.

And my word do they look cool.

Ah I cant wait for 10, I've been waiting for this forever.

In case it isn't obvious and no one clicked Touya's link, Shadow Paladin's equivalent to Liberators are Revengers.

Also:
>Link Joker clan
are you trying to tell me some meaningful title dropping plot is going to kick in for the anime or

Because it hasn't been said yet here, Link Joker is the Void's clan.

Apparently it's gonna introduce a new concept that "defies 'common sense'", and its members are the corrupted members of other clans.

For example, the two so far are LJ's Blaster Blade and, apparently, LJ's Phantom Blaster Dragon.

thank god void wasn't just a random monster for the season

The defying common sense scares me for the format, but the corrupted clan members seem nice? ... Not sure why they added a Phantom Blaster Dragon considering that he's... already corrupted.

AUTO [Counter Blast (2)]: When this unit is placed on V or R, if you
have a vanguard with “Revenger” in its card name, you may pay the cost.
If you do, choose one of your opponent’s rear-guards in the front row,
and retire it.

I would have preferred if he also had a CONT (V): When you have 3 or more "Revenger" rearguards, this unit gets Power +1000.

Even so, Shadow Paladins have actual field control now.

They had it with the Blaster Dark chain, but it's much more effective here, that's for sure.
