The end of WIldlife Week on Pojo's FMA COTD is today, and we have the cutest dog to ever grace a TCG card... Black Hayate, Mascot!


Faction: Military
Cost: 2
Strength: 2
Wits: 2
Alchemy: 0
Ability: SEARCH WITS Sacrifice Black Hayate: Reset target character in your home and move him tot he search party.
Keywords: Animal

for 2 cost, it has awesome stats... Its ability can be useful to let a used character int he Mai Phase join the fray, but most of the time, it will be a dead card. only useful in decks that need him as a combo piece.... BUT THE PICTURE IS SOOO CUTE!!!

Rating: 2.6/5... not really useful... OMG CUTE!!!!!!!

2 Cost--Military Faction

Animal

2 Strength--2 Wits--0 Alchemy

"Search Wits Sacrifice Black Hayate: Reset target character in your home and move him into the search party."


The Rundown: While he has average stats for a 2 cost ally, Black Hayate
makes up for it by having a very handy effect--most notably against
Homunculus. Homunculus has several cards and allies that set your allies or
make it so that your allies cannot assign to the search party. But, with
Black Hayate, you can sacrifice him and then move one of your allies into
the search party from home. It also has some use against Yoki and his "send
home" cheese.

The Downside: Well, you have to sacrifice him in order to gain his effect.
Which means you spent 2 command to recruit an ally that is no longer there.
In addition, you have to spend a search action in order to use his effect.
So, instead of attacking an opponent this turn, you instead spend it
sacrificing one of your allies to move another one into the search party.
Doesn't seem too productive...

Final Word: While you may have to spend a search action to get this little
guy's effect, it's worth it if your opponent made it to where you couldn't
assign your 8/8/9 Veteran Alchemists this turn. While Black Hayate won't be
something you'll find in every deck, he's not a bad choice to stick in there
just in case.

I give Black Hayate, Mascot a 3 out of 5.

Black Hayate - Mascot
Cost - 2

S=1
W=1
A=0
Search Wits: Sacrifice Black Hayate: Reset Target Military Character you control and move it into the search party.
This card belongs in any Roy deck that plans to go above level 3 (Man who would be king) because the level 4 has to be set during the recruit to use its effect and this card just helps the MWWBK out sooo much, in my Roy, I packed 3 of these because they, just like Den, foolish pawns, and others of that sort, are moving targets. . . This card is also good with things like Gracia Hughes - Pregnant Mom.
4/5
My apologies if I formatted wrong or anything and I was wondering if I could start a deck garage thread, if I'm taking things to fast or too many wants in too little time just tell me and also plz tell me what I did wrong if I did anything wrong w/ the ratings. . .
