Cardfight!! Vanguard ZERO English version is now available in App Store & Google Play


Cardfight!! Vanguard ZERO is a digital Cardfight!! Vanguard game for smartphones. An English version is confirmed to be released on April 9, 2020. However, a PC version was released through Shiftgames and only for Japanese users on March 30, 2020.

The game follows the original 2011 anime series with now the Story mode available till season 1 where Aichi Sendou and his fellow friends up against Team AL4 in the National Tournament.

New Mechanics

Certain rules and mechanics are changed from the Standard Fight Rules to the fastest interaction, which is more mobile-friendly, such as:
  • Some cards have new abilities, either for rebalancing purposes or to adjust to the changes in-game mechanics, as well as the card text was updated.

  • Your deck must have 40 cards, where the only grade 0 card is your first vanguard, and you must have exactly thirteen cards for each grade 1-2-3.

  • Grade 0 cards that would be called or added to the player's hand by a card effect are created from outside the deck similar to token units. Unlike tokens, however, those grade 0 cards are treated as part of the player's deck so they can exist in areas outside the field.

  • Because the deck no longer contains grade 0 cards besides the first vanguard, grade 3 cards are now also trigger units. Additionally, the player can customize which trigger effect each of their grade 3 cards have during deck construction.

  • There is a hand size limit of 9 cards. If a new card is put into your hand while you already have 9 cards, that card is discarded to the drop zone immediately.

  • While the first-turn player draws a card, the second-turn player shall draw two cards.

  • When your drive check reveals a trigger effect, that card is put into your drop zone, or when it is a normal unit, that card is put on the bottom of your deck.

  • When your vanguard is dealt damage by your opponent's attack, that unit gets [Power]+5000 until end of turn, which is known as "Damage Shield".

  • "Intercept" works differently, now it forces the opponent to attack a rear-guard with Intercept before attacking anything other units.

  • During the battle that your vanguard is being attacked and will be hit, the Perfect Guard in your hand will activate by itself due to one of the conditions and be put into your drop zone:
    • While you have three or more damage, your opponent's unit during that battle has two or more [Critical] after the drive check.
    • The attack that would deal you the 6th damage.

  • As a result of these changes, the guardian circle was removed.

Interdimensional Dragon, Beyond Order Dragon | Generation Break 8 | Deck Profile

Interdimensional Dragon, Beyond Order Dragon
[Stride]-Stride Step-[Choose one or more cards with the sum of their grades being 3 or greater from your hand, and discard them] Stride this card on your (VC) from face down. 
[ACT](VC)[1/Turn] Generation Break 8:[Counter Blast (1) & Soul Blast (1) & Bind eight cards from the top of your deck face up] After the original battle phase of this turn, you perform an additional main phase and battle phase. Until end of turn, this unit gets "[AUTO](VC):At the beginning of your main phase, [Stand] this unit, and it gets drive -1 until end of turn.". (Perform the end phase after the additional phase)
Generation Break 8 can be achieved when you have a G unit on your Vanguard circle and 7 face up G unit on your G zone. It's not that easy right to survived that long? :)

Today I'm going to do a deck profile for Gear Chronicle clan, Interdimensional Dragon, Beyond Order Dragon build. Let's take a look at what cards will I choose.

*Please be noted that this deck profile is build based on Cardfight Area 1.95 update.

Blaster Blade Exceed Revealed | Card Review

Blaster Blade Exceed
[AUTO](VC):[Counter Blast (1)] When your G unit with "Saver" in its card name Stride during your turn, you may pay the cost. If you do, search your deck for up to one card with "Blaster Blade" in its card name, reveal it, put it into your hand, and shuffle your deck. 
[AUTO]:[Counter Blast (1)] When this unit is placed on (VC) or (RC), you may pay the cost. If you do, choose one of your opponent's grade 1 or greater rear-guards, and retire it.
Finally, Blaster Blade is back! Yeah, of coz since Aichi will be featuring on the next episode in Cardfight!! Vanguard G: NEXT. This time in Grade 3 just like Blaster Dark "Diablo". The first Stride skill is kinda predictable, since all the G units have "Saver" in its card name. So, by paying 1 Counter Blast you get to add one "Blaster Blade" card from your deck. It is just so Aichi, spamming Blaster Blade on each turn.

The second skill is common for Blaster Blade, retire an opponent rear-guard with 1 Counter Blaster just like "Blaster Blade Seeker" and others. It can used on rear-guard circle too. It is kinda disappointing for me actually. It would be better if you can Superior Call any Blaster Blade with Boost though.

And this card comes with the new Alfred G unit, Divine Knight King, Alfred Holy Saver.

Divine Knight King, Alfred Holy Saver
[Stride]-Stride Step-[Choose one or more cards with the sum of their grades being 3 or greater from your hand, and discard them] Stride this card on your (VC) from face down. 
[ACT](VC)[1/Turn] Generation Break 2:[Counter Blast (1) & Choose a face down card with the same card name as this unit from your G zone, and turn it face up, choose a card from your hand, and discard it] If you have a heart card with "Alfred" or "Blaster" in its card name, choose one of your rear-guards with "Blaster Blade" in its card name, and until end of turn, it gets [Power]+3000, and "[CONT](RC):During this unit's first battle of this turn, this unit performs Twin Drive!!.".
Okay, Alfred Holy Saver is quite interesting! The cost is relevant. So, you can choose one of Blaster Blade unit and give he a Twin Drive!! However, if only the unit attack on the first battle. Thus, you are available for Quintuple Pentadruple Drive (5 times Drive) on the turn you stride this G unit.

Last but not least I would like to include the new G Guardian, the beautiful one, Great Flash, Iseult.

Great Flash, Iseult
[G guardian] (Usable when both fighters' vanguards are grade 3 or greater, and the number of face up G guardians in your G zone is three or less)-Opponent Turn's Guard Step-[Choose a card with "Heal" from your hand, and discard it] Call this card to your (GC) from face down. 
[AUTO]:[Counter Blast (1)] When this unit is placed on (GC), if you have a vanguard with "Alfred" or "Blaster" in its card name, you may pay the cost. If you do, this unit gets [Shield]+5000 for each of your rear-guards until end of that battle.
Basically, she only works with "Alfred" or "Blaster" vanguard, minus 1 over there. However, The art is gorgeous but the skill is kinda mehh. It depends on how many rear-guards you have. Its a totally disaster against with burning deck like Kagero and Narukami.

The returning of Aichi maybe awesome but his deck is disappointing.

Holy Dragon, Myriad Soul Saver Card Review!

Holy Dragon, Myriad Soul Saver
(This card cannot be in your main deck) 
[Stride] (Released when both players' vanguards are grade 3 or greater!)-Stride Step-[Choose one or more cards with the sum of their grades being 3 or greater from your hand, and discard them] Stride this card on your (VC) from face down. (When this card strides, it gains the power and card name of one heart. At the end of the turn, return it face up) 
[AUTO](VC):[Soul Blast (3)] When this unit attacks a vanguard, if you have a heart card with "Alfred" or "Blaster" in its card name, you may pay the cost. If you do, choose up to five of your rear-guards, they get [Power]+5000 until end of turn.
So the third Legend deck, Aichi "The Blaster" is coming out soon. What got my attention here is this new beautiful Soul Saver G unit, Holy Dragon, Myriad Soul Saver!

You will need an Alfred or Blaster vanguard to fully utilize this G unit. By basically paying the cost, you can give your other 5 rear-guards 5,000 boost until end of your turn.

This G unit can be really dangerous in late game. I bet this G unit will be Aichi's ace G unit!
