[Set 1] Booster V - Deck Upgrade

  At the Duel Den, I bought two booster packs. Turns out flashing that recruiter's holo-card at the clerk got me a discount. She took one look at the Zeldritch INC. logo and practically lit up.

  "Oh my, you got an endorsement from Kalen Nex? Let me see what I can do..."

  In the end, I snagged two packs for [898] Crystal Credits. Sweet. My balance dropped from [1401] to [503], but honestly? Worth it.

  Now... time to crack these packs open.

  First pack:

  Common. Uncommon. Rare! An Evolution (Common)! Common.

  Second pack:

  Common. Support. Uncommon. Uncommon. Another Evolution (Uncommon)!

  I sifted through the cards, examining them carefully. My buddy Spade was just as hyped, his tail wagging as he grinned up at me. I know, buddy. I'm euphoric too.

  My first evolutions and ten new cards!

  I was already thinking about building a deck around Skyrawsoar—it had solid offensive potential. But Angrioon? With its passive ability active, I could run a hyper-aggressive playstyle, dishing out damage like crazy.

  "Luke!" Spade barked excitedly, bounding around my legs.

  "Alright, alright." I crouched down, letting him high-five my hand. "Let's find ourselves an opponent."

  The clerk, still watching from behind the counter, smirked.

  "Well, if you're interested," she said, "there's a ten-card tournament going on across the street."

  Oh, neat.

  "I heard the Duel Center runs matches all day, every day. Free registration, and there are cash prizes depending on your ranking." She leaned forward, giving me a knowing look.

  "As a valued customer, we'd love to keep seeing you around."

  Spade and I exchanged a glance.

  I grinned, believing we had the same idea in mind. Time to put these new cards to the test.
