Lowemon & KaiserLeomon Previews for Digimon Card Game Booster Set 18 (2024)

The Digimon Card Game Twitter has updated with card previews from Booster Set 18. This time it's Lowemon & KaiserLeomon.

Lowemon gets some nice art of it blasting with one of the versions of Endlich Meteor, shooting golden energy from the lion mouth on its chest.

KaiserLeomon gets some art of it dashes forward at high speed before attacking. It doesn't appear to be using a specific attack, but it may be starting up Schwarz Konig, creating an energy aura lion around itself. Some nice mecha style detailing on this one.

I rewatched Frontier only a couple of years ago so there’s no reason I shouldn’t know, but for some reason I’m only now noticing that KaiserLeomon’s Kaiser and KaiserGreymon’s Kaiser are different. Weird.

KaiserLeomon uses the more general Kaizā spelling for "Kaiser". The Kaizeru spelling that KaiserGreymon uses is commonly used in Japan to refer to "Wilhelm II", the last and most recognizable German Kaiser.

Essentially, KaiserLeomon uses the 'title', while KaiserGreymon uses the 'name'.

I'm a bit lost on this Kaiser topic. No idea.

But it's really really weird to see all Legendary Spirit Warriors having cards added with additional colors.

Agnimon with Purple
Wolfmon with Blue
Blitzmon with both Yellow and Black
Fairymon with Red
Chackmon with Red

It's like seeing those elemental warriors added their weaknesses to expose completely in Pokemon style. Like Fairymon green which is full of Nature but added with Red color like fire.

Agunimon is a demon so purple fits

Lobomon was already blue, yellow is what was added.

Metalkabuterimon is a robot (black) and uses thunder (yellow)

Kazemon has wind powers which most birds are in red (weak justification)

Kumamon…is part of kaisergreymon. Yeah no justification on that one really other than that. Not a dragon or bird

All those new cards designed for Susanoomon with ACE card. I know that but still I really wish all Legendary Spirit Warriors with new cards are supposed to be solo color to stay true to their elements while the new rule added trait saying For each color at your hand with Hybrid trait, reduce Digievolve cost by 1 or gain other color(s) by sending other card(s) with Hybrid trait for evolving successfully as much as you can for Susanoomon in hand or deck.

But I'm not complaining because all new effects Ancient Warriors cards references to their official profiles for all abilities to pass to certain Types to support -Type- Decks.

But... I see some comments saying they prefer old cards of Ancient Warriors over those new ones. So it's tough to design cards...

The only ones that really have elements outright that match the colors are Fire with Red, Water and Ice with Blue, Light with Yellow (and, of course, Light hadn't been Yellow until this set), Dark with Purple, Steel with Black, and Wood with Green.

Wind, Electric, and Earth? None of those matched up to any of the colors, not in a way that would make you "stay true to an element." Wind for all its constituent Digimon has variously been Yellow, Red, and Green, Earth has been Red and Green and Black, and Electric has been Green, Yellow, Red, Black...

Black often matched up with Mineral Types and Earth but much less Earthy. But I really have zero theories on what the Hades Black color is for.

Elements and colors is something I tend to have to make it faithful to stay true to match. It's just... My strict preferences. Something makes me wanna force it.

But I don't think it gotta be 100% absolute perfect matches. Since the Digimon Card Game designers already made weird decisions made me cringe or interested.

KaiserLeomon art looks great. If only he got more screen times, I'd worship him.

For wind, I think the yellow is because it's a fairy type or because AncientIrismon is a rainbow, the red is because of the hot wind attack, and the green is because the forest is windy? Blue can be if it is related to the sky.

For earth, red is because of volcanic areas, green is because of grass areas or more like areas for Nature Spirits, and black is because of trash areas like the "Dust Zone" in Xros Wars.

For electricity, the area between the ocean and the mountains is a potential area for the formation of lightning clouds, so it can be green or blue. Red because the volcanic area has lightning. Black because the machine cannot be separated from the electricity. And I think yellow is most appropriate because lightning is also light?

But it is true that they are not consistent in one color because basically it depends on the situation.

Right, my point is that you can't really say that keeping those three Spirits solo color to "be true to their elements" is a great idea, because they don't line up with any one color better than the other ones. And even the ones that are true to specific elements fall into the problem of, uh... well, the Spirits are actually kinda shit at that? Most of them have an attack or two in one of their forms that is absolutely just an attack from one of the other elements, and the worst offender of this is definitely Light, where almost all of the forms have at least one attack that absolutely, positively, 100% should be an Ice attack - which along with the Garurumon references is why they've been Blue instead of the actually fitting-to-Light Yellow.
