Last Card, Revonn – Cardfight Vanguard Review

Hilarious fact: Korea made a mistake on the text and gave it Critical +5000 instead of Power. Imagine the possibilities.

UUUUURGH I’m really not sure how to feel here. I mean, Revvon works to a point…but you need five rear-guards rested, so that basically means that unless you happen to have one spare rear-guard on an Accel Circle or are cheesing it with Blue Wings or something Revvon will almost certainly be attacking last…and that’s when the opponent drops a Perfect Guard and that extra Drive, power and even Critical won’t mean much. SO as you can tell it’s basically going to rely on the opponent never running control, which in the upcoming Vanquisher-heavy meta’s a bit big an ask, frankly.

So comparing this to Maelstrom build, Maelstrom can still fulfill its conditions with less cards because of the nature of its skill, and there’s always a chance to cheese a win unless the opponent hits triggers in damage constantly. Revvon’s just got too many answers against it and is likely to blow itself up in the face. Just about its only trick is -5k power but Maelstrom can kiss columns against Force as well without needing to gimp pressure first.

Build looks nice, but I want the more consistent Maelstrom.
