So we’re getting THIRD forms of Stride-based Grade 3s now. Apparently. Oh good, I don’t think. Anyway.

This new Ahsha gets around Lock by specifying cards, so if nothing else it keeps you from dying to Glendios. You’ll die to something else but hey, it’s a thought. Practically, the first skill’s just there to recycle dead things and rearrange a field, it’s not going to plus you. The Stride skill’s the most important part of her. You don’t need a card set up unlike the last 2 Ahshas and it can recharge your resources if your opponent isn’t playing the field murder game. What sucks is the restriction to Bloom cards, but one’s basically synonymous with the other so I guess that’s not a huge deal.

I’ll enjoy my Grade stall game with her though.

3/5

What’s up, Rogue Squad?!  With the Zoo set finally dropped, we get to have a look at all of the new goodies for Neo Nectar, Megacolony and Great Nature, so let’s stop wasting any time and have a look at our first card: Blue Ahsha.  Blue Ahsha, or Bluesha in short, negates two weaknesses that the deck has: locks and heavy retire decks. The first effect helps with locks by forcing any one card on your field and a card in your drop zone to draw a card and call a card from your hand to the field, and since it doesn’t specifically say a unit or a rear-guard, Ahsha now has an answer for Locks.  As for against heavy retire decks, like Kagero and Narukami, her on Stride allows her to call any normal Bloom unit from your deck to the field, and if you called another unit of the same name, you get a Countercharge and Soulcharge back.  Bluesha is more than your basic waifu card; it’s also a great new ace for your Bloom decks.

Rating: 3.5/5
