Card of the Week – Bardock

Warrior
Type: Alien
Subtype: Saiyan/Male
Turn Cost: 4
Healthy: 4/3
Injured: 3/0
Abilities: Toughness

Bardock is a solid addition to the Alien lineup. The first thing that I noticed when I saw this card was the 3 support. For a turn 4, he’s not currently the best drop (Cell trumps him easily), but the fact that he’s on color for alien, a deck that needs all the on-color chi it can get, makes him stand out. Also, with Toughness, he could act as an important chump blocker when needed. Even though his support goes to 0 when injured, his turn cost is high enough to avoid Kamehameha and Dodonpa, which gives him some reliability, at least for now.

A solid drop, but nothing outstanding. If Giant Ape becomes a more realistic possibility, he may gain some value. Without seeing the rest of the set, we can only speculate, but I see Bardock as a fairly consistent t4 drop for Alien.

Thoughts?
