Today's video looks at how option cards have evolved in the Digimon card game. Previously, option cards have had two main roles, but now with delays these have branched off into something more, and ultimately I feel this is where Bandai is slowly guiding us towards item-esque cards.

    I think item cards would be pretty cool! I think generically id like if we had them function more like x-antibody or the ex6 legend-arms cards where you pay memory to tuck it under a digimon in order to get some kind of effect, but at the same time i don't think that feels particularly unique or flavorful haha.

    Agreed! And we are starting to see a lot more type of equipments as well. I'm sure they could do a lot more in regard to tribal and archetypes but I'll save that for another video when I want to expand more on it ha ha.

    Items/equipments as options are a cool idea. I can understand Bandai being hesitant about adding card types as more card types means less Deck slot space in what is already kinda tight with tamers and options having roughly 10 or less space for slots depending on the archetype. The only way they could make room for more card types would be if they reworked major areas like scraping Digitamas and have the Rookies/Lv3 be considered the 'new' Digitama and adding more space slots for the deck. (But that would be waaay to much effort like errating on plays to on hatch and with decks where the digitama is the whole gimmick be reworded)

    Scrapping digitamas and having us start at 3's would also be interesting. It would revert us back to a style of Hyper Colosseum where we set our level 3 down first then everyone flips. I don't see Bandai pursuing this although with the most recent announcement of a 3 color secret option card, a dual color egg might be in the works that's a secret.

    I've long advocated for a Digivice option series that would slot under tamers like X-Antibody does for Digimon and give them additional effects. Either alternative tamer effects or bonus effects when they trigger normally.

    This would be a cool way to introduce both digi-eggs and digivices into the game too. Maybe digivices give you an anytime search for a digimon or something, and eggs let you recycle an armor card and digivolve into it for free?

  • @DIGI-PANDA

    @DIGI-PANDA

    That'd be the concept! Digivices searching for Digimon, delaying to maybe reduce the digivolution costs. Digi-Eggs (in regards to armor digivolution) for finding armor trait Digimon and then reducing the digivolution costs. The concept is endless.

  • @DudesPlayingVidGames
    @DudesPlayingVidGamesАй бұрын

    The idea of an item catf I always thought would work more like an inheratible. That way the card can be removed through stripping or de-digivolve if the effect gets to strong. I always thought we'd get a Rika that would do this for Renamon and options (specifically plug ins). Though these could work similarly if the idea is they are one turn use. Example: Brave shield offers a once pur turn protection for a small body to keep a flood gate on the feild or to prevent deathx's all turns effect. I prefer this because to many top ends have amazing protection that causes the player in control to snowball, and think protection on smaller bodies (lvl3's and 4's) works better and helps non-meta decks more than just giving everyone a new toy.

    @@DIGI-PANDA I heard, hence the plug-in effect off a Rika to give Rena a pseudo equipment/item effect. It gives the Sakuyamon deck some juice, more identity, more ways to use plug in options, and of course more flavor. Allowing her to hold plug ins like the current 3M is shooting for makes for a more varried deck.

    ​@@DIGI-PANDA Yeah the cost is insane for an effect with that much value, especially considering Analogman is the closest equivalent and he's a cost 4 tamer who could be interacted with. I agree with some others that think 'item' options should do an effect and then become a source of a Digimon on the field. That way Blue has means of dealing with it via source stripping, Black can destroy an entire stack if you dedigivolve to an 'Item', Red/Purple can attempt to pop since it's a Digimon, and Green can suspend/attack into it, etc. It might not be the most original way to approach it but if the Design team dives into the concept, I'm sure they would likely design something that makes us entirely regret the idea.
