What's up, you guys?! So we're looking at more cards
that aren't really out yet, which is always a crazy
awesome thing, so let's take a look at more nuns!
Battle Sister, Monaka
Power: 11000
Grade 3
Clan: Oracle Think Tank
Race: Elf
[ACT](VC) Limit Break 4 (This ability is active if you
have four or more damage):[Counter Blast (1) & Choose a
card named "Battle Sister, Monaka" from your hand, and
discard it] Look at five cards from the top of your
deck, search for two cards from among them, put them
into your hand, and put the rest on the bottom of your
deck in any order.
[ACT](VC):[Counter Blast (2)-card with "Battle Sister"
in its card name] This unit gets [Power]+5000 until end
of turn.
[CONT](VC/RC): Lord (If you have a unit without a same
clan as this unit, this unit cannot attack)
...I see this one as a more situational Parfait,
which is still in its own right. Monaka is an 11,000
Power unit that can become stronger with a Especial
Counterblast 2 that'll give her an extra 5,000 Power, so
it's good in those tight situations where you're trying
to squeeze out that extra Shield from your opponent for
the final push. Also, her Limit Break, while situational
in the fact that it's a Persona Blast, is a pretty good
one as you get to grab 2 cards from the top 5 cards of
your deck. This makes it so that it can add some extra
Sentinels and Shields or give you more cards to add to
your attack formation, so the possibilities of this card
are pretty high as it matters with the top 5 cards.
Overall, I can see this card being used as much as
Parfait if not with her as two solid bosses.
Rating: 3.5/5 (Still slightly prefer Parfait over
her.)
Art: 4.5/5 (...though her art is definitely better! XP)
Next Time: Of what I've been told, the Magus deck is
pretty Stellar.
Go Rogue...Go Pro!
...and DON'T be a Sackboy!!!

Battle Sister, Monaka
Third this week is Battle
Sister, Monaka. Her Limit Break skill is to CB2 and
Persona Blast to look at the top 5 cards of a deck, put
two to the hand, and put the rest at the bottom. Oh, and
a Especial CB of 2 that gives her 5k, but that's rarely
useful on a VG.
First thing you think of is
her ability to search for an instant +1 out of a good
variety of cards. Honestly though, she's pretty boring.
She comes with too many flaws making her largely
uncompetitive. Let me list them:
1. She depends on having
another copy of herself in the hand, so it relies on
chance to pull off.
2. It suffers the same
problem as Hexagonal Magus in that CEO can do her shtick
of stacking things EVERY turn.
3. If you were to look at
her in terms of strict advantage gained, what she
essentially is is a delayed Coco. She can net 2 cards
instantly on-ride, whereas Monaka has to wait AND
fulfill another condition to use.
4. Monaka's ability to
obtain more physical cards doesn't stack up to CEO's
ability to net more triggers in terms of overall shield
obtained. The random cards to the hand will be at best
5k shield average, whereas CEO can get you more 10k
shields to the hand, so CEO in terms of long term
benefits is better.
With no reliable way to
search herself, I can't really recommend her or the
Battle Sisters. Once they stop being crap Coco or crap
Neo Nectar then we'll talk.
1.5/5
