7/30- Card Review: Raven, Daughter of Trigon

            Last day of the week people, and I’m reviewing Raven.  I see that my post yesterday hasn’t been posted yet, but I’m starting anyways.  I’m writing the date the review was submitted from now on, since it’s not always up the same day.  If you watch the anime, you know how dark and eerie Raven is.  It captures that in VS with her effect. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you can keep her alive till the recovery phase and she gets to recite her chant its pretty much game over.  You skip your entire attack step and even lack any reinforcement.  If you get caught in that situation you better hope you have some awesome character that’ll be able to stall a turn (better hope your affiliation has an awesome eight drop.)  And it’s so simple to keep her alive, with cards like Circle Defense and Heroic Sacrifice, and if you have a Garth on the field you can have a chance to reuse them if you ever need to. 

Not much more to say, it’s the only Titan seven drop out there, and it’s a damn good one, really works in synch with your other cards. 

 

 

 

I give it a 3.8/5.  It’s useless if you can’t make it to turn eight, but with all the defensive cards the Teen Titans have to offer, you should be able to most games.  Just hope your opponent doesn't pull off a Phoenix Force, cause you'll be right back to where you started.
