[One Piece Card Information Bureau] ST29 Egghead Cards Reveals

 

We've got some card reveals for ST29 deck. Now, I'm not sure if this deck will have completely new Egghead supports, or this deck will be mixing with old Egghead to make up for 50 cards deck. Currently, there's a few cards revealed, and some of them are interesting especially the new Luffy Leader.

Cards

Monkey.D.Luffy

Yellow Leader (ST29-001)

6 Life / 5000 Power (Strike)

Egghead / The Four Emperors / Straw Hat Crew

[When Attacking] If you have 2 or less Life cards, draw 1 card then trash 1 card from your hand.

A 6 Life Leader without any drawbacks. You can pretty much run any engine with this Luffy as that 6 Life can be pretty good, especially combined with some Life gain cards to make your opponent take ages to go through our Life cards. But that's only if you don't care about the effect since it is only a hand filter effect which can make a difference during the late games, but not in the early games.

Sanji

Yellow Character (ST29-004)

4 Cost / 5000 Power (Strike)

[Counter +1000]

Egghead/Straw Hat Crew

[On Play] Look at 4 cards from top of your deck, reveal up to 1 {Straw Hat Crew} type card and add it to your hand. Then, place the rest at the bottom of your deck in any order.

[Trigger] You may trash 1 card from your hand: Play this card.

A nice 4 drop searcher, and since we have plenty of SH in Egghead, it won't be difficult to see at least one of them in your search. Plus, we also have a 5k beat stick to swing, rather than replacing the card once you used the effect. You also have a nice old trigger effect where you trash to play this card, so you could run this in decks that have plenty of SH in the build.

Roronoa Zoro

Yellow Character (ST12-014)

6 Cost / 8000 Power (slash)

Egghead/Straw Hat Crew

<Rush: Character> (This Character can attack Characters on the turn it’s played)
[Activate: Main] [Once Per Turn] You may trash 1 card with a [Trigger] from your hand: Draw 1 card and give up to 1 rested DON!! to your Leader or 1 of your Characters.

A new keyword, Rush Character, so now there's an official name for Pseudo Rush effects. I still think this is pretty strong as we can attach rested DONs to our cards, and some cards like yellow Bonney build could benefit more with rested DONs. However, Zoro doesn't have a trigger ability, and I think they know about yellow Bonney with this card if Zoro has a trigger ability.

Kizaru! We’re 100 times stronger than we were 2 years ago!!

1 Cost Yellow Event (ST12-016)

Egghead/ The Four Emperors/ Straw Hat Crew

[Main] Your Leader with [Monkey.D.Luffy] gains <Unblockable> for this turn.

[Counter] Up to 1 of your Leader gains +3000 power during this battle.

Another new keyword, Unblockable, but this existed just like Rush Character, but they will be shortening the text down as they will be doing the same thing, just different wording. Unfortunately, this Event only makes Luffy Unblockable as a Leader, so we need cards like Otama who can power up our Leader to force a lot of counters from your opponent's hand. Luckily, the counter effect will be handy as we don't need to focus on the main effect.

Raw Heat Strike

1 Cost Yellow Event (ST29-015)

Egghead/Straw Hat Crew

[Counter] Up to 1 of your Leader or Character cards gains +2000 power during this battle. Then, if you have 1 or less Life cards, give up to 1 of your opponent's Leader or Character cards -2000 power during this turn.

[Trigger] Draw 1 card. 

This could be going in Enel build as Enel can easily maintain 1 or less Life cards easily, and you could benefit this effect with the power to power up you cards as well as reducing your opponent's cards. There's also the trigger effect which lets you draw 1 card which is what Enel needs to survive easily.

Death Lion Strike

2 Cost Yellow Event (ST29-017)

Egghead / Straw Hat Crew

[Counter] Up to 1 of your Leader or Character cards gains +4000 power during this battle. Then, if you have 2 or less Life cards, KO up to 1 of your opponent's Characters with a cost of 3 or less.

[Trigger] Draw 2 cards, then trash 1 card from your hand. 

I am not sure about this effect. The 4k power is handy, but for the KOing side, we can only target 3 or less Characters. I guess you could also run this card for the trigger effect since that draw power is handy. I could use this in Vegapunk since Vegapunk needs all the draw power it can get to survive a very low health deck.
