Haven

The Elric Brothers, Edward and Alphonse
Elric

8 Command
Level 2
Human—State Alchemist—Hero
4 / 4 / 5

The Elric Brothers counts as both Edward and Alphonse Elric. Your leader stack can contain Edward Elric and Alphonse Elric.

Search Alchemy 7: Target an attachment in your discard pile. Attach it to The Elric Brothers.

I like the concept of the card, but it still doesn't make it good. I'm assuming that you have to discard any Al or Ed allies that already hit the field before you leveled up. Not only that, but you can't play any Ed or Al allies until level 3. The effect is ok, nothing to write home about. I like the idea of changing leaders, but not being able to play Ed or Al allies for most of the game stinks.

Rating: 1/5 (Play Ed or Al, not this!!!)

Hey guys! Sorry I missed out on Wednesday's review, I was sick, so i'll make up for it somehow... Anyhoo, today we look at The Elric Brothers, Edward and Alphonse. For the rest of the review, we're gonna call it, EB. So... this is the pinacle of my deck, EB. The whole point of using Ed, Novice is to recruit Policeman as a starting ally. Then try sac him, then use Ed Novice's effect. Get an ally for later, such as another Ed, when you get to level 3 Al. (Seven Feet) This card as okay stats, for a level 2. This card's a bit hard to get because it's only availible through conventions, trading, or selling. I like EB because you can flip-flop, using any 3 leaders of Ed or Al. My line-up is Novice, EB, Seven Feet, and Life Saver. Basically I use Al leaders so I can use Ed Allies, such as Researcher, Strategist, Enraged, ect.... His effect is good, say you lose an attachment? Get it back... or when you lose one and the opponent attacks, you can get one back, such as Antique Armour and end the battle. 8 command is good, espeically for the level 2 status. Nice chase template. Overall, it's a great card when you can't decide what leader to play, or you like both Elrics at the same time, :D

Final Judgment:
5/5
Cons: little low stas, you have to discard any Ed or Al allies you have.
Pros: 8 command, good effect, can use ed and al leaders and allies, reletively easy to get out if you use policeman.
