The more time passes, the harder it becomes to find cards from previous sets. To help alleviate this issue, the Battle Evolution Booster includes reprints of cards that fans having been asking for.
The 4 SRs below are included, but that’s not all...
{BT1-053 Senzu Bean},{SD8-04 Defending Father Paragus}, and {DB2-127 Universe 9, Assemble!} are here too!
Core pieces for fan-favorite archetypes are getting reprints, making it easier than ever to find the cards you need.
Next, let’s take a look at some key cards and new deck concepts.
Our first new theme revolves around a Leader Card that unifies Nappa and the Saibaimen into a single deck!
Just like in the source material, Nappa’s grows Saibaimen to make the Z Warriors’ lives miserable! He even puts 2 Saibaimen into play when he awakens!
And to sweeten the deal, the Saibaimen themselves have received a power boost. There are plenty of other new cards that are a perfect fit for this archetype, so be sure to take a look at the card list!
Once you’ve filled your Battle and Drop Areas with Saibaimen, it’s time to play {EB1-58 Nappa, Break Cannon Unleashed}. In the source material, this attack was powerful enough to floor Piccolo, Tien, and Chiaotzu, so we made this card KO 3 of your opponent’s Battle Cards! It’s time for your opponent’s to experience the terror of the Saiyan invasion firsthand!
Next up is the first-ever Android 16 Leader Card!
Android 16 in this set is focused around [Arrival Blue/Green], and has a skill that negates [Energy-Exhaust] to help support multi-color decks. And once he awakens, you can use [Arrival Blue/Green] skills on cards in your energy!
Let’s take a quick look at two Android 16 cards with [Arrival Blue/Green].
{EB1-64 Android 16, Steadfast Comeback} has both [Blocker] and [Revenge], making your opponent’s attacks a total nightmare.
{EB1-63 Android 16, Steadfast Ally} finds Android 21 cards from your deck and puts them into play! Pack your deck with powerful Android 21 cards to suit any situation, then use this card to play them at will! A great place to start is {XD2-08 Android 21, A Bad Omen}, which is also being reprinted in this set!
Finally, let’s introduce Bulma’s Leader Card, her first since BT8!
This time around, Bulma is all about the 《Heroine》 special trait, a theme new to this set. You can’t play Battle Cards without 《Heroine》, but don’t worry -- she gives female characters from past sets this special trait, enabling you to build a deck packed with Dragon Ball’s mightiest female fighters! Her [Auto] activates during your opponent’s turn, too, giving you the perfect chance to overwhelm foes with cards like {EB1-03 Launch, Inspiring Support} and {TB2-011 Heroic Duo Videl}.
Even better, the female characters from Universe 2 in this set all have 《Heroine》, making them great inclusions. {EB1-35 Rozie, Blast Manipulator} strips two cards from your opponent’s hand and gains [Triple Attack] to help lead the Heroine onslaught.
There’s also plenty of support in the set for new themes like 《Vegeta's Lineage》, along with classic favorites like 《Bardock's Crew》, 《Universe 9》, and plenty more besides! Check the card list for all the details!
So, what do you think?
The set includes 68 new cards, 57 reprints, and alternate holographic versions of Common, Uncommon, and Rare cards for a grand total of 233 card types.
We hope you’ll use some of the new cards to craft new deck ideas, or rediscover old favorites. More new cards will be revealed soon, so stay tuned!
