My Loot Of The Day - Cardfight Vanguard Trading Card

So finally i got my very own Cardfight Vanguard Trading Card Game (TCG). A product from Bushiroad, Japan. I also own a Weiss Schwarz (WS) TCG, which is also product from the same company. Currently i have 3 series of WS; Milky Holmes, my main deck, To Aru Majutsu No Index II, and Bakemonogatari. Check out this post of mine during last time bushiroad having a giveaway stuff. Players need to introduce themselves in order to win their sign cards.

Just like Weiss Schwarz card game, a vanguard deck only can consist of 50 cards. But in vanguard, a winner was determined if he/she inflict 6 damage to opponent or the opponent has no more cards to draw. I decided to get a vanguard card game mainly because there was already have many players at my place. I can learn more from them as well as trade some card. Vanguard also have its own anime where the latest episode is 30. 


What i get for myself yesterday was a Trial Deck of Nova Grappler clan consist of 50 starter cards, a volume 01 booster box and card sleeve. Currently there are 4 different clans for trial deck already out; Royal Paladin, Kagero, Oracle Think Tank and Nova Grappler. There was a grand total of 14 clans in the list. For more info on each type of clans, translation, card ability as well as how to play, do check out Cardfight Vanguard Wiki. It's very useful. 

So, a booster box consist of 30 packs. Each packs have 5 cards inside. Make it a grand total of 150 cards in a box. Those cards were randomly given. Normally players aim to get a super rare cards either RRR or SP which is very hard to get and high value. Basically in a box, you will either get 3 pieces of RRR cards or 2 RRR with 1 SP cards, the rest are RR, R and C (common). These rare cards was kinda expensive especially for a SP cards. Check out the price list from here. Correct me if i'm wrong, the most expensive card would be CEO Amaterasu SP which cost about 5,000 yen. You can sell it to other people who was looking for them. 

I was hoping to get a CEO Amaterasu from the first booster box i opened but in the end i got other instead. So my 3 unit of RRR cards are Embodiment of Victory Aleph from Kagero clan, Blaster Blade from Royal Paladin and Battle Sister Cocoa from Oracle Think Tank. 

Later after that, i bought another booster pack which consist 5 cards. Guess what, i finally get the CEO Amaterasu card. Luck must be on my side that day. It's not a SP type though but a RRR. I already trade the Cocoa and Aleph with a friend. Another friend has reserved my Amaterasu at reasonable offer. I'm letting them go since i'm not aiming to become a Oracle or Kagero clan player. 


A total of 10 different clans in volume 01 booster box. There was a total of 4 different volume booster boxes.
