Alphonse Elric, "The Fullmetal Alchemist"

While Alphonse Elric has an attachment, he gets "Main Wits 7: Shuffle the current location into it’s Owner’s location deck. He plays a new location Strength 5 wits 6 alchemy 6 level 2 leader

Not a big fan of this lv. 2 Alphonse. He has some playability of course just not as much as Protective Soul or Demon Armor. He can change the location if he has an attachment but if your playing Alphonse attachment you want to have protective soul to fight again for more defeating. If you want control you can use Demon Armor for homing or Suit of Armor for a built in antique armor ability.

2.5/5 due to better lv. 2

The Frost Alchemist

Subject: Alphonse Elric, "The Fullmetal Alchemist"

Ok. Here we go:

Alphonse Elric, "The Fullmetal Alchemist"

7 Command Elric Faction

Spirit - Hero Level 2

5 Strength 6 Wits 6 Alchemy

While Alphonse Elric has an attachment, he gets "Main Wits 7: Shuffle the current location into its owner's location deck. He plays a new location."

Stat wise: Slightly better stats than "Protective Soul", and definately better stats than "Demon Armor".

Effect wise: Here's where we get to the fun part. this Al's effect is handy for countering cards like "Roy Mustang, Master Manipulator" and "A Clue for the Search". The downside is that, if the location came from your opponent's

location deck, it's going to be their location again. So, if you're playing against a person that has locations you can't win and they play "A Clue for the Search", Al won't be able to do too much to help you. However, against "Master Manipulator", he has more of a fighting chance. Because if your opponent switches the current location for a location in his victory pile that is YOUR location, you get to shuffle your location back in and play a new one. But wait, "Master Manipulator" is Level 3. So chances are, you'll be level 3 too. Oh well. Sorry "The Fullmetal Alchemist".

This promo card is cool, but I definately have it only for collector's value. Try "Alphonse Elric: Protective Soul" if you like being able to have a bit more control, or "Alphonse Elric: Demon Armor" if you want to have 8 Command.

This Al gets a 2 out of 5 from me.
