This is a new blog writer for the site.
People from the VC Division call me Yamada so I’m going to go with that as my
handle name here.
Since
I mentioned VC, I’m going to talk about it. Valkyrie Crusade is a mobile card
game app created by nubee Tokyo. The gameplay is pretty simple. At your
kingdom, you build your resource buildings, upgrade them and build some more.
It’s like Farmville in that regard. That’s just one part of Valkyrie Crusade’s
gameplay. The main part is in the card battles and collections. When I say card
battles, most of you will think about Yu-gi-oh, Cardfight Vanguard, etc., but
that’s not the case here. The card battles here are like those found in turn
based RPGs, only that the skills are activated by chance. You get the cards by
either summoning them, as a random drop while exploring the chronicle maps and
rewards from Archwitches. Archwitches are like the boss types in this game.
They are encountered randomly while going through the chronicle maps. The first
encounter of an Archwitch is at level 1 and the maximum level is 200, though in
some events the Archwitch level reaches up to 250. The higher the level of the
Archwitch, the harder it is to kill, but the chance to get powerful cards
increases. Don’t worry if you can’t kill an Archwitch because you can request
Reinforcements after the battle to get your comrades to kill your Archwitch for
you.
There
are over 700 unique cards in the VC world. These cards are categorized by
rarity. These are the Normal (N/HN) cards, Rare (R/HR) cards, Super Rare
(SR/HSR) and the newly released Ultra Rare (UR/HUR) cards. HUR cards are the
most powerful type of cards while the N cards are the weakest and most common
type of cards. Currently, URs are only obtainable via summon. The other
categories are obtainable by summon, archwitch subdue reward and sometimes as
rewards. Cards can be combined to increase their power. For example:
This is card is Snow White. She is by far
the best attack card in the game obtainable through archwitch subdue reward.
She is a 1* SR Card. You can upgrade her by using another copy and “evolving”
her to her HSR form:
This is her HSR form, with new art, higher
attack and defense stat and higher HP.
Another
aspect of VC is the affection points. A card with maximum affection points has
increased ATK/DEF stats. How to know when they are at maximum affection?
Simple, the cards confess to you, like this:
One of the rarest cards in game (and one of
the coolest looking too) Hecate. This is her maximum affection event. All cards
even N cards have them. Every card has a unique confession event when they
reach maximum affection. You can raise the affection level by sending your card
waifu into battle.
VC
is free to play and downloadable in the Apple pp store and Google play.
As a final gift, I
give you my favorite card in the game HSR Spade.
