The Frost Alchemist

 

Izumi Curtis, Protector

7 Command--Elric Faction--Level 2

Human*Hero

4 Strength--5 Wits--6 Alchemy

"Quick Alchemy: 1

React Strength 6: Izumi Curtis blocks this attack."

The Rundown: Izumi's more available level 2 allows her to Block attacks, which is pretty useful for saving that character that you don't want to be taken down just yet. She also has decent stats for a level 2 and comes equipped with Quick Alchemy, much like her level 1. Not too shabby.

The Downside: First off, this Izumi has 7 command, which isn't all that great unless there's an effect or stats to make up for it. Unfortunately, looking at this effect, it isn't all that great. This is mostly due to the fact that Izumi doesn't meet the stat requirement right off the bat. In addition, Strength is not Izumi's best stat, so you're less likely to have Strength boosting equipment in your deck. That means you're likely to have to Equivalent Exchange in order to use her effect, and you want to have to EE for things as seldom as possible.

Final Word: Overall, I'm not too impressed with this leader. It's alright if you're wanting to run Izumi as your leader, but aside from that, try to get your hands on Izumi Curtis, PO'ed. She has 8 command, slightly lower stats, Quick Alchemy 2, and a slightly more useful effect.

I give Izumi Curtis, Protector a 3 out of 5.
