Card of the week 7-23-2013

Card Of The Day
The card of the week for this week is Iris. It’s a new supporter
from Megalo Cannon (link to the set is at the end of the
article.) that we’ll be getting in our Plasma Blast set that
will have pre-releases in early August, and the actual release
in mid August.
The translation for the card is:
During the turn this card is played, damage from you pokemon’s
attacks is increased by 10 for each prize card your opponent has
taken.
This card is interesting because it could be very good in the
end game where you just need that little bit of extra damage. So
lets say you are in a battle, but you have already maxed out
your damage, let’s say with lasers or pluspowers. You still need
to do that crucial 10-40 extra damage, and if you don’t win this
turn, your opponent wins. Things aren’t going in your favor, you
have almost conceded the game, but you get an Iris, play it down
and hit for the exact numbers you need to take your final prizes
to win the game.
So, now that its use has been clearly established lets look at
the pros, and the cons.
Pros:
Can hit for extra damage when needed.
Can boost your pokemon’s attacks by a max of 50 damage.
Playable in almost every deck.
Extra damage is applied before weakness and resistance.
Cons:
It’s a supporter, so if you play it, you can’t play any draw
supporters for the turn.
Isn’t very strong in the early game.
It is hard to fit into decks.
So, those are the pros and the cons. I think it will see play
next season, most likely as a 1, or a 2 of, if it is played at
all. Overall, I would say it is decent, and could be very
strong, but again it is a supporter, and is not strong in the
early game. So, those are my thoughts on the card Iris, but
remember, these are my opinions, so please don’t be rude about
it if you disagree.
