Training with Blademaster Banryu (Training Example)

Rikun looks crestfallen as Betamon collapses, knocked clean out. "Sorry buddy... I failed you.

"Well.... thanks for the teaching session, then... sweatdrop I feel like I picked up on it pretty quickly. I saw that trap coming way in advance, and was just hoping I could do enough to avoid it... but no dice. Jeez, what a powerful combo...

"GGs." Rikun nods and scrapes up Betamon to go give him some medical treatment... "....it's tough losing, but even despite, that was pretty fun... I hope Betamon enjoyed it just a little."

((...so um... what happens now?))  

[-InsertEgoHere- Liger]

The aura of victory quickly fades away as Raji returns to his mentor-like state of mind. "Now we take things up a notch." He reaches in his card deck for a Digivolve and tosses it to the tamer. "Use this, we're going to do battle at the Champion level."

"Finally... I can go to my true state!" The armadillomon steps away from the group and looks to his tamer. "I'm ready!"

"It's time... TO DIGIVOLVE!!!" He pulls another digivolve card from his reserves and slides it across his purple and gray d-arc digivice.

The armdillomon receives the power of the card and enters a drawn-out digivolution sequence in which he digivolves into his champion form... "LEOMON!!"

Digimon: Hiro, the Leomon

Champion Default Deck




The leomon chuckles and takes a battle stance. "Go back to the default deck thread and pick up the champion deck. Copy and paste the code for the deck and set up as we did as rookies."

"Zuh-wait whatnow?" o___O Before he knows what's up, the Digivolution card is in his hand. Rikun stares at it blankly for a minute, then smirks. "...Well all right then." *sssssSLAH*

Betamon pops awake instantly as he's enveloped in light...
"Betamon digivolve to...."

"GUARDROMON!"

Username: Blademaster Banryu
Digimon: Guardromon (still nameless for time being)
Data-type
HP: 80
MP: 40

Deck: Champion Default




Guardromon clangs his metallic fists together eagerly. "How... how does that even work, anyway... You were an amphibian, now you're a robot...?" Rikun wonders weakly. "Beats me! Maybe it's because you defended me with metal earlier!" "Oh yeah, the trash cans... I guess that kinda works...? Well, let's get this show on the road."

"DICEROLL GOGOGO"

((Lol, could you possibly be waiting for me to roll??? xD))  

[-InsertEgoHere- Liger]

"And looks like we'll start things off.

Digimodify: D-3 Digivice, ACTIVATE!! "


Raji slides the card across his digivice and notes the ominous glow that it gave off as its form shifted into a hybrid cross between a D-3 and a D-Arc. "Attack!" He calls out, pointing the device at his digimon.

"But of course." The massive lion digimon jumps towards the robot and begins to jab at him with swift blows, ignoring the slight recoil from hitting metal.

Guardo
HP 80- (10+5)= 65

Leo
HP 80
MP 40-25= 15
Effect(s): +5atk (entire battle)

"Be sure to notice that there is a change in the amount of dice that you roll for a champion and it increases with each level."

"Also, if you'll notice, here we'll see where attributes come into play. Good thinking playing Guardromon as a data type."

Extra Lesson: Attribution Choice

According to DMA, some digimon have more than one attribute. This can affect everything about that digimon from battles to how it digivolves in the TP Shop. Whenever you come up to that situation, the attribute you choose is your choice... choose wisely.

Note: This does not mean that your digimon if forced to stay that attribute. For example, you can have your digimon act as a Data type in one battle and then choose its other attribute for another. The only time where this is not true is in Tournaments. Which ever attribute you choose when signing up is the attribute you choose for the entire event.

((Lol, could you possibly be waiting for me to roll??? xD))

((Yup hehe.))

Rikun pauses carefully, taking his time to plot out his strategy... I have a feeling he's going the route I was going to take... Although his moving first gives him a bit of a head start, hmm. Dunno if there's much I can do to counteract that, but we'll see... "...Right, I guess this is what we'll go with. It's the best card to start with, anyway," Rikun says matter-of-factly. "Not like I have much of a choice, is it?" rolleyes
"If you say so." 3nodding

"Digi-Modify: Activate D-3 Digivice."

Rikun's own green Digivice undergoes the similar transformation as light shoots out of it, enveloping Guardromon and raising his own attack power.

"Now, gogogo, Robo! Attack!"
"Rrrrright!" Guardromon winds up, then hurls a mighty punch directly at the taller Digimon's torso!

Robo
HP 65
MP 40 - 25 = 15
Effect(s): +5atk (entire battle)

Leo
HP 80 - 5 - 9 = 66
MP 15
Effect(s): +5atk (entire battle)

"...Why did you call me Robo?" Guardromon asks quizzically.
"Oh... hehe, no reason really... you sort of remind me of another Robot I've seen before." sweatdrop
"...If you say so!"  

[-InsertEgoHere- Liger]

Leomon throws up a quick guard as he takes a bit of the blow. "Heh, strong, but you'll have to do better than that!"

"What he said, but how about we take a little of the damage out of his punches!

DIGIMODIFY: Spirit of Nature, Activate!"


Leomon glows with... the spirit of nature, feeling some of his stamina coming back as he takes a break from being completely offensive. (defend)

Rikun smirks a little, if for no other reason than "Yeah, that's what I thought."

"Digi-Modify: Activate Nature Spirits!"

Once again, the same effects Leomon felt apply now to Guardromon also.

"No rest for the weary," Rikun says grimly. "Keep up the assault."
The gung-ho robot keeps at it, winding up and punching with his other fist now. "How's this!?"

Robo
HP 65
MP 15 - 15 = 0
Effect(s): +5atk (entire battle)

Leo
HP 71 - 5 - 6 = 60
MP 15
Effect(s): +5atk (entire battle)

"...very weak," Rikun says flatly. "C'mon, Robo, step it up!" Dx  

[-InsertEgoHere- Liger]

Leomon continues to block the blows, almost as if he were preparing for something or rather waiting for a certain action. "Slow and steady wins the race." he says with a chuckle...

"That's about right. Sometimes, it works better to guard before it it is too late."

"I know what you're trying to get me to do... it's not gonna happen, pal!" Rikun says with a grim smile. "You wanna stall the night away, that's what we'll do too then, eh."

Guardromon hunkers down and Defends.

[-InsertEgoHere- Liger]

"Oh... do you now?

DIGIMODIFY!!! VIRUS BEAN ACTIVATE!!!"


"Time for a change in tactics!" Raji points out with his unarmed hand.

A bean appears in Leomon's as he prepares to punch. "TAKE THIS!!!" As he smashes the bean against Robo's iron frame, the bean takes effect and changes its attribute to a virus type.

((LOL I realized one major move I should have made differently a while ago... Realized it too late though derp. Probably gonna lose again.))

"Oh that's just great," Rikun growls.
Robo's cranium sparks and shorts as he is reprogrammed to be the Virus-type.
"Hgrgrrgrgrrrrkkk...!?!?!"

Guardromon hunkers down and Defends to recover more MP.


Robo

"Things aren't looking so great... hopefully we can make a comeback here..." Rikun mutters nervously.
"You will regret doing that." Guardromon says in a disturbingly cold tone.  

[-InsertEgoHere- Liger]

Blademaster Banryu

((And that is why we train, so you can get an idea of the battle and some basic strategies... ))

"Hahaha... then show me how I will come to regret this." The leomon goes in for yet another hit from his boosted aura, a little slower than usual.

"Hiro, looks to me like you're slowing down a bit..." He reaches for a red card and twirls it around before sliding it across his hybrid D-Arc 3.

"DIGIMODIFY: SUMMERTIME, ACTIVATE!!!"


An aura of rejunvination wafts through the field affecting both of the digimon.

"I... Feel... REJUVENATED!!!" He cries as he darts towards the digimon.

VERY IMPORTANT LESSON: Battle Effect Chains

Now we enter to heart of all battles when continuous cards like Summertime are activated. Once these kind that affect a player kick in it becomes a passive effect. These can range from affecting a single player to affecting both players.

When you come in contact with these, remember this:
Passive Effect--> Used Card Effect+ MP subtraction from card--> Your Attack/Defend

Keep this in mind always as it can both help you and hurt you.
Also Summertime is one of the few cards that affect both players on both of their turns. In this case, we each gain 10 mp at the start of each of our turns.

 

[Blademaster Banryu]

-InsertEgoHere- Liger

((Got it. In this case, I'm thinking that your playing that card is more likely to hurt you, as you're about to see... xD I'm just gonna remind myself that you're probably playing that to prove a point more than to try to win.))

A spark of inspiration flashes in Rikun's green eyes-- he sees an opportunity to strike. "Yeahahaha, that's what we've been waiting for," Rikun mutters to himself and Guardromon with a grin.
Guardromon narrows his eyes, his only source of expression, as he prepares to make good on his threat...

"Digi-Modify! Activate Nova Blast!"

The tank on Guardromon's back glows, then transforms into a high-powered flame cannon!
"Take this, meatbag! Nova Blast!" he roars in his metal-muffled voice, launching a giant fireball from his back-mounted flame cannon! After the attack his back-tank returns to normal.


Robo

Crap, I forgot my diceroll.

EDIT: Does Summertime activate during each our turns? So should I have added the +10 MP into the calcs for my turn?
