—Chant for when declaring a G guardian

PR-0255EN

Light Element, Agleam

"G guardian" (Gガーディアン Jī-Gādian) is a keyword exclusive to G units, and introduced in Fighters Collection 2016. The G deck's maximum size was increased from 8 to 16 cards upon this keyword's release. This ability is indicated by a green shield icon with "G Guardian" printed next to it: thump.

Characteristics[]

G units with the "G guardian" ability have the following special characteristics:

  • They have a green-colored card frame with gold lines.
  • They have an original [Shield] Shield icon of 15000 and a more elaborate shield box, representing their defensive nature.
  • They are grade 4 units, but do not have skill icons.
  • They do not have any printed [Power] Power icon nor [Critical] Critical icon. Instead, they have a large "G-GUARDIAN" label where those stats would normally be printed.

How It Works[]

For more information about the Guard Step, see here.

"G guardian" is a continuous ability which, once it is active, allows you to call a face down G unit from your G zone to (GC) during an opponent's attack. It is done through the following process:

  1. During the guard step of your opponent's turn, if both you and your opponent have a grade 3 or greater vanguard and there are three or fewer face up G guardians in your G zone, you may choose a card with "HEAL" (a heal trigger) from your hand, and discard it.
  2. After paying the cost, choose a face-down G guardian from your G zone. Call the chosen G guardian to (GC) in face-up [Rest] Rest state.
  3. Choose one of your units that is being attacked, and the G guardian will guard that unit.
  4. After the above process, all "when placed on" abilities are activated at the same time, and you choose the order in which to resolve them (paying any required costs).

Details[]

  • You must complete the call of a G guardian, and fully resolve any effects that result from this call, before calling or intercepting with any new guardians.
  • While you have four or more face up G guardians in your G zone, you cannot call any more G guardians. However, this does not limit the number of G guardians you may call during a battle or the number of G guardians you may put in your G deck during deck construction.
  • You may call any number of G guardians during the same battle, in addition to calling or intercepting with as many guardians as you want.
  • At the end of a battle, all G guardians called during the battle are put into your G zone face up instead of the drop zone.
  • G guardians on (GC) do not count for Generation Break. If you call one or more G guardians while there are no face up cards in your G zone, your Generation Break abilities do not become active until your G guardians return to the G zone.
  • "G guardian" does not count as a normal call, as it is an ability; therefore, it can be used even if your opponent uses an effect that restricts which cards you can call to (GC) or guard with from your hand.

Background[]

A New "Stride" System (April 4, 2016)

After analysing and improving the mechanisms of "Stride" occurred in many places of "Stride", a new magic system has been developed such that one can utilize that power momentarily as long as he or she possesses a certain level of mana and aptitude to use the system. The system, which can also be called "simplified Stride", is locked so that it cannot be used when the caster possesses the intention to attack, so as to prevent usage in malicious invasions and crimes. The summoner and the summoned beings need to mentally synchronize, with "the will to overcome dangers and challenges". Because the intention to persevere and survive is the key of synchronization, the synchronization ends at the moment of wielding the intention to attack. By the way, the system is now spread to all nations by the messengers of "Gear Chronicle".
