Edward Elric,
Enraged
7-cost Elric Faction Ally
5/5/6
Quick Alchemy: 2
As an additional cost for Edward Elric to
attack, discard one card.
First of all, before I get to my review, I would
like to say thanks to the Pojo Staff for
allowing me to be a part of their CotD team.
And, now we are off with my first Card of the
Day review: Edward Elric, Enraged.
First of all, for a 7-drop Elric faction, his
stats are beyond amazing. He doesn't get
restricted like the other overpowerful Elric
ally (Alphonse Elric, Impenetrable Armor) and
can play events.
Edward is really at his best when along side
Izumi Curtis, Teacher. He becomes a six-drop,
and has amazing first turn potential.
Besides as an ally for Izumi, Edward isn't too
amazing. Researcher has 5 alchemy, and has the
ability to cancel. This makes him a bit more
tech useful. But, if your main goal is to dish
out a lot of pain, Enraged is the way to go.
Oh, and don't forget, Enraged has Quick Alchemy:
2.
That's like having a 7/7/8 boomstick. =D
Sealed: 3/5 (In sealed you need all the cards
you can get, but his stats cannot be beaten)
Constructed: Izumi Leader: 4/5 (A first turn
Shadow is much easier with this Edward)
Non-Izumi Leader: 2/5 (A bit slow, and not as
techy as
Researcher)

Elric
7 Cost
Human—State Alchemist—Hero
5 / 5 / 6
Quick Alchemy: 2
As an additional cost for Edward Elric to
attack, discard 1 card.
Welcome to quick week! Quick is a new mechanic
from Alchemist Gate which lets you use any
events of the stated type as a battle pump. For
example, "Quick Alchemy: 2" is the same as:
"Battle Alchemy: Discard an Alchemy event. This
character gets +2 to each attribute." Quick
makes your cards more versatile, and I think it
is a great mechanic.
This Ed packs a punch. Only a 7 cost, and
potentially a 7 / 7 / 8 in battle. That's
unheard of for a 7 drop. Unfortunately, this Ed
burns through your hand fast. You don't want to
keep attacking with this guy, or your hand will
be gone in no time. Luckily, the second effect
only comes into play when Ed attacks, so if he's
defending, no discard. Your opponent would have
to be desperate to attack him, with 7 / 7 / 8
potential for only 1 discard.
A lot of power for a lvl2 dropper, but use his
ability mainly as a deterrent. Make your
opponent afraid to attack him, and he's free
points toward attribute goals =).
Rating: 3/5 (Powerful Stats, Card Disadvantage)
