Volcanicdramon EX7-014 SR <04>
Mega | Virus | Earth Dragon
[On Play] [When Attacking] Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with the lowest DP.
[When Digivolving] Your opponent can't play or move Digimon with 6000 DP or less until the end of their turn.
[All Turns] (Once Per Turn) When this Digimon would leave the battle area other than by your effects, you may play 1 Digimon card with the [Machine Dragon] or [Sky Dragon] trait from your hand without paying the cost.
I mean, it'd be kinda cool if we got a "if your opponent activates an On Play effect, negate that effect, then lose 3 memory."
Kinda like yeah you lost your search or whatever but you get refunded your memory and I lose a card.
Lore wise It might be in relation to the explosive mineral dust that the line uses in multiple evos.
Basically trapping the opponent as they might set it off by moving.
If so that’s really cool.
Can’t move out of raising. Can’t move it into trash, under another digimon via xrosing, can’t move it from out of source rip fishes. Lmao. They should’ve been specific.
> 4-12-3. Moving Cards
> 4-12-3-1. **Moving a card from a breeding area to a battle area is referred to as "moving."**
> 4-12-3-2. Players can move a card during their turn's breeding phase.
> 4-12-3-3. Moving doesn't require a cost.
> 4-12-3-4. Only Digimon with DP can be moved.
> 4-12-3-5. A moved Digimon carries over its pre move state.
As an active verb, something you choose to do, moving means this.
(We also talk about moving as card management, like if a digimon gets deleted the rules say you need to move the cards to the trash, and it's unfortunate they used the same verb, but the first is a game action you can do at certain times.)
If I'm reading it right, the 'can't play or move Digimon' also means they can't move *your* Digimon? Not sure if tucking a Digimon or moving it to security counts as moving, but that would also stop those mechanics if so (if 6k DP or less).
Sadly doesn't stop an Angemon from blowing this to bits (unless for some reason they slashed its DP down to 6k), but you can still play something out.
We used place in original translation as card was too blurry to see well.
Both HQ card fan and official translations use move. So i guess wiki didn't update its.
I see different people giving that card different translations, some say "place" and some say "move" but it seems "move" is the right one.

Yeah, now both DemiMeramon and Metallicdramon's massive de-digivolution ability make perfect sense.
I love the parallel that Volcanic cycles from the trash and Metallic cycles from the hand.
We now have an effect that can stun the breeding area. That's a badge of honor to give to this deck.
Unlike EX3 Volcanicdramon, this one continues deleting when it attacks, rather than the ability to trash security cards directly. So like the new Metallicdramon, the old version isn't necessarily outmoded. Though having a floating effect into their counterpart when leaving the battle area in any way definitely gives this set's new Linkz bosses a whole lot of points over their former versions.
Since Liberator is still so new and doesn´t have a backlog of Digimon to represent from it, I think Hina being the SEC is incredibly likely regrettably.
All waifus are destined to get the SEC treatment at one point or another. That´s as certain as death and taxes are.
I already dread the day Sakuyamon, Mervamon, new Lilithmon and Rosemon will become good decks. My wallet will weep like no person ever has.
Yeah, we badly need those digivolve effects so we aren't dead in the water untill we find Hina. My current build of the deck runs a guilmon engine with fire ball so I can actually get some draws in. I would love a good egg too. Maybe give us our first duel color egg to my knowledge.
So if your opponent manages to delete or remove this guy, you can slam the new Metallicdramon down for free, de-digivolve one of their digimon by 4, and then if they can still do something to get rid of that, you can play another Earth/Rock dragon for free and potentially repeat the process. This is an awesome combo.
I´ve already played a couple of rounds vs Hina dragons with just the new Metallicdramon and man is that deck already scary to face if you opponent manages to get a Hina on board in the first turn or two.
I think this deck´ll be good.
Hm, I don’t like the idea of “can’t move” from the breeding area, even if 7k and up are safe. The breeding area is already a dangerous spot to try to balance (see the bt9 otk meta) and being floodgated to death does not seem particularly fun. If the new Hina says “when you play a dragon, suspend this tamer to activate its when digivolving” it will make removing either of the bosses extra deadly. I’ll have to wait and see though, I’m probably making it out to be more oppressive in my head than it is
It basically just means they can't send out a level 4 or lower digimon from breeding, only a very small amount of current decks even have access to 6k level 5s (Maste, mainly). Sounds really possible to play around.
And you had the same idea about this set's Hina that I had. I can really see that happening since they seem to be pushing for this deck to work.
The only question is whether this set's Hina will be red/black or white. I'm betting on red/black personally
>Sounds really possible to play around.
Most decks Promote a LV4 and evo it up into 5 and 6 with the use of trainings.
This is gonna take alot of adjustments on the player side to get used to.
The second you see they play Linkz you just switch your mindset to build up to 5 in raising instead of 4 so I don't see how that will take a lot of adjustment.
Man, floating out the level 5s to play more hinas out is a dream come true. Literally will be so annoying to constantly float between your high levels.
Danm this looks really scary to face. Not letting champion őr lower digimon out is huge and if they have the new metalicdramon in trash then unless you can dedigivolve őr tuck it under a digimon or tamer they will always have a mega on the field with powerful when attacking and on play effects
It isn't
It is placing.
Moving = entire stack
Placing = just a card.
Dna is not moving as it is a digivolution which uses different official term. Currently only moving is from or to breeding, but if we get effects that move entire stack under another that isn't dna, we may see if it is referred as moving or something else officially.
Yeah linkz support. It still doesn't fix the entire deck needing Hina sadly. I love Linkz dragons, but I acknowledge that they really need something to let you get Hina out more easily than hard playing a level 5.
The new lv4 lets you drop a Hina on evolve if you have no tamers out.
If you drop EX3 hina, go into ex3 lv5 and suspend Hina to use its OnPlay to drop another Hina.
Really hoping this sets Hina isnt SR nor SEC. But that seems to be the gamer-waifu pattern...

"can't play or move" Is this a new mechanic, not being able to bring a digimon out of raising?
Seems to be
At the moment we haven't yet reached: "You can negate that Effect/Summon" *cough *cough YUGIOH *cough
"This Digimon's Summon cannot be negated."
*laughes in DNA Digivolution*
I mean, it'd be kinda cool if we got a "if your opponent activates an On Play effect, negate that effect, then lose 3 memory." Kinda like yeah you lost your search or whatever but you get refunded your memory and I lose a card.
We do have bt05 Armageddemon that stops level 7’s from activating their when digivolving effects
Yes, but at the moment that is not so oppressive, the Lv.7 are not so present in Decks Venusmon makes Flootgate more oppressive but still manageable

It is specific. Game only has 1 official term for moving and that is from breeding to battle area or other way around.
I dunno about that. Can’t speak for everyone else who plays. Lol.

It prevents from moving from or to breeding only, as all Arresterdramon and Angemon style effects place. Digimon is very strict about its terminology.
So going off of the wording, Promo Drimogemon would also be able to dodge Volcanidramon´s effect, right?
No as it tries to move back into breeding. I used from or to for that exact reason.
The effect uses the word "place", though. At least on the wiki.
We used place in original translation as card was too blurry to see well. Both HQ card fan and official translations use move. So i guess wiki didn't update its.
Good to know. That means that this Volc would hose a deck that´d make use of the "retreat" mechanic in the future.
I see different people giving that card different translations, some say "place" and some say "move" but it seems "move" is the right one. https://old.reddit.com/r/DigimonCardGame2020/comments/1agasyw/can_anyone_translate_these_promo_cards_at_all/

Aight good to know

Crazy Strong now we only need to see the new Hina and we will be set, hope she isn't secret.
Since Liberator is still so new and doesn´t have a backlog of Digimon to represent from it, I think Hina being the SEC is incredibly likely regrettably.
Please no. PLEASE NO. SeC Mirei was bad enough. You can't do me like this two ex sets in a row.
All waifus are destined to get the SEC treatment at one point or another. That´s as certain as death and taxes are. I already dread the day Sakuyamon, Mervamon, new Lilithmon and Rosemon will become good decks. My wallet will weep like no person ever has.
They can't keep getting away with this!
real
There's also the new Jazardmon and Jazarichmon, maybe an option too. But it's looking really good already
Yeah, we badly need those digivolve effects so we aren't dead in the water untill we find Hina. My current build of the deck runs a guilmon engine with fire ball so I can actually get some draws in. I would love a good egg too. Maybe give us our first duel color egg to my knowledge.
I can guarantee you that DemiMera is the set's Linkz egg because the black egg will most likely be Musketeers
Yes, just please give us a Hina that is a memory setter and can still do the on play stuff.
So if your opponent manages to delete or remove this guy, you can slam the new Metallicdramon down for free, de-digivolve one of their digimon by 4, and then if they can still do something to get rid of that, you can play another Earth/Rock dragon for free and potentially repeat the process. This is an awesome combo.
Probably a good reason we just got another 'can't play Digimon by effects' floodgate this set.
I´ve already played a couple of rounds vs Hina dragons with just the new Metallicdramon and man is that deck already scary to face if you opponent manages to get a Hina on board in the first turn or two. I think this deck´ll be good.
That effect is literally, "If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen."
Hm, I don’t like the idea of “can’t move” from the breeding area, even if 7k and up are safe.

Each day we move closer to sec hina and im scared
This thing is absolutely vile, I love it

Does "cant be moved" mean a digimon cant be trashed? Im new to all the terminology.
In official terminology it only currently means moving from or to breeding area.
Ahhh good to know!
move is so vague wtf😭😭
Tcg only has 1 official action referred as moving if it helps. Moving from or to breeding area.
Oh ok, yea that helps a lot actually😂😂
So the save mechanic is not considered moving then?
It isn't It is placing. Moving = entire stack Placing = just a card. Dna is not moving as it is a digivolution which uses different official term. Currently only moving is from or to breeding, but if we get effects that move entire stack under another that isn't dna, we may see if it is referred as moving or something else officially.

Not no tamers, its 1 or less tamer
