New Royal Paladin Archetype: Jewel Knights (BT10) [UPDATE: 01/26/13]


With the newest episode of the Cardfight!! Vanguard anime, came a new archetype for the Royal Paladin clan - Jewel Knights! As Kourin's main deck and clan, the archetype seems to be similar in playstyle as to the general Royal Paladin clan - power in numbers and superior calling from the deck. Below are some images and names of some cards, including a new Flash Shield, Iseult - Jewel Knight, Iseult!

  1. I think that releasing a new perfect guard for the RP is something really stupid... I mean, it's exactly the same card, apart from the fact that the new one is "Jewel Knight" (meaning that is a bit more useful). I don't get the point...

    Sorry for my english, I'm from Argentina.

    1. Well the more Jewel Knights, the more chance you'll have the cards you need to counterblast for in your damage zone. Remember that most of the Jewel Knights need specifically Jewel Knights to counterblast.

    2. Not to mention, considering the new PG reprints for a number of clans (whether by reprint in booster or clan extra pack or like Iseult), I think they're trying to get the prices for the PG's of popular clans more in line with other RR's.
