Ad yeah Hatman that card. But of course FFG would not release a so horribly needed to compete card that's impossible to get would they?!

King doesn't have Fire. Neither does Ivy (unless you count her ta-tas which set horny nerdz on fire by spontaneous combustion BUT THAT IS NONE OF MY CONCERN)

Or exploring the game (Working on Zhao Daiyu at the moment... if it works it will be funny, and I know Target X built a fast as hell Nightmare that might as well be called Kazuya by the way you have NO board.) moar.

no... good + fire, good + fire, good + earth, good + earth- the four 'good' characters - Hilde, Temujin, Sig, and King (sorry Lu Chen's support is lame except for in very few characters, note he also has life which one other good character card also has). Everything good has either fire or earth also has - nix Cursed. Cursed alone is not 'significant' diversification.

If you disagree you haven't tried to build a good character and realized that the other symbol on that good character is 'that' much better.

Why only 4 copies of 4 different cards for the prerelease, especially when the foundation promos are pretty much required in playsets (bloodline rebellion should have been the prerelease promo and paid to protect should have been the boxtopper)

I'd rather her share more symbols with Raphael, so instead of Fire, I'd prefer Life (considering only the last Raphael).

No way does Yoshi have Fire, I would kill a man. Soooo not in character. I could see them mirroring Mitsurugi's symbols with Yoshi, actually... your pred already has All-Life vs Void-Death. :D

Is no one else blown out by the fact that there's an offer of 48 packs and 8 promos for $50!!!!! ?

It's not bad, but the sets are nearly 2-3 sets late.  While good, it's not that amazing when everyone in our group has already bought box upon box of these cards.  Now, if they could guarantee that all the booster boxes were chock full of Knight Breakers and Fury of the Ancients that would be a different story.

So?

I define diversification as "doing something else than". Take all the Good stuff and put it together, there's your diversification. Is building Good a good idea? Hell no. There's no synergy within the symbol (exception Enemies now Friends + Lu Chen and partial blocks).

However, don't tell me King support is the same as Hilde support is the same as Lu Chen support. You know that's a lie. You may not see the diversification, but I do. Diversification doesn't mean a symbol is worth playing, though.

Yea he knows that king support isn't the same as Hilde or Lu Chen support, BUT he is a compulsive lier.

First off, other than in Lu Chen, there's only a handful of cards in his support useful to everyone else.  Namely, Robes, Know when to talk... and Chi Disruptor to an extent.

Very few cards in King support can be used better (outside of King) by a Good deck than an Earth deck.  That is, except random Konvict Kick inorder to fulfill the combo for Dragon Lifter, and then again Konvict Kick won't work with that.

Very few cards in Hilde support can be used better by a Good deck than a Fire deck (I'm ignoring Order's existence like everyone else when I make this statement).  Sure, Good can make use of Glanzende Nova and Frischer Himmel, but in Fire with speed boosts and stuns and the need for card draw, it's pretty much a thousand times more useful in Fire.  Even Hilde herself, themed or not, can run Fire better than Good or Order. 

Temujin... no one seems to care about his support.  Dragon's Flame might require a mid "weapon", and thus not allow for mid throw cheatery into it, but Mark of the Beast and Dragon's Breath (actually kind of fun because the string of attacks would be Dragon-themed lol) are good mid-weapons.  I'm sure the next set will release more.

Additionally, nothing prevents Temujin from running both Knight Breaker AND Dragon's Flame, considering that Dragon's Flame will fulfill Knight Breaker and they both share Fire with Midnight Launcher.

Mark of the Beast for 4, Midnight Launcher for 7, Knight Breaker for 12, Temujin F (rearrange card pool to KB, MotB, ML), Dragon's Flame for 22...

The point is, since I lost track of what I was talking about, I think it was that we need different symbol spreads: Order without Fire, Good without Fire, Good without Earth, Water without Life?

I think Good just needs a kill card. I mean the foundation base is quite good. It's the only symbol that can run both Man Behind the Mask AND Hope for Ones People as well as a lot of very good 1 Diffs(Torn Hero, Hunt For Jin, Cursed Blood, From The Hawk Alertness, and Knows When to Talk). It can easily spam more foundations than any other symbol right now. Thats at least gotta be worth something.

I think the kill card for Good is Siegfried himself.  Making piddly attacks do 5+ damage is a big threat in my book.
