Fresh New Fish, Super Cold Amberjack

We have two new evolution of an old card. One is Super Gunma while the other one is Super Cold Amberjack. Both are annoying to evolve. For this time I want to write about Super Cold Amberjack.

It has decent ATK multiplier while Super Gunma... well, its leader skill is crap. I can't see why anyone wants to use Gunma in the era of Tardis, Aerith and many more 1 turn CD card with more powerful awakenings and stats compared to Super Gunma. Super Cold Amberjack, on the other hand, has 1.5x all stats to Physical type (2.25x to all stats for double Amberjack leader), 8x ATK when attacking with Fire, Water and Light at the same time, for a total of 144x ATK multiplier if you're counting the 2.25x to all stats. He only accept Physical type known for their big HP. The only drawback is that most Physical type has crappy RCV so healing could be challenging even with 2.25x boost to RCV. Thankfully Amberjack skill can really help when it comes to healing especially after taking gravity. Amberjack doesn't have built-in shield so its team will take full damage from gravity.

Its skill heals the team for 50% HP while changing unneeded orbs into either fire or water without touching Light orbs. Pretty powerful skill if I must say. It's fast too at only 11 CD.

Now the problem with fielding a team for Amberjack is that many of the good Physical subs comes from either 6* Fest Exclusive or 6* Collab. Both are hard to get. I'd say Amatsu, Blue Cotton and Reincarnated Idunn & Idunna for most attacking power. Revo Idunn & Idunna is very good in Amberjack team because they also have RCV buff built into their skill while also providing enhance for 3 turns. They have decent RCV for Physical type, double TPA and 7c and able to use God Killer latents.

For VDP job, Mega Awoken Blue Odin can be a good VDP sub although his skill will most likely useless since he erased Light orbs needed to activate Amberjack full ATK multiplier. Pixel Yda is also a good VDP. The other alternatives comes mostly from FF collab such as pixel Squall or pixel Tidus. Not that many card has two VDP though.

For this particular run, I opted for this team:




First I don't have neither Amatsu nor Blue Cotton. I'm tempted to change my dupe Green Cotton into Blue but I think I'd go with Fire Cotton when I decided to change her evo. Nees has great HP and awoken bind clear but her skill erased needed orbs for activation. That's why I put Sephiroth as an assist to act as a back up without changing any orbs. Awoken Tachibana Ginchiyo is good too. Nice awakenings and firepower with double 7c, has great skill with board changing. Her only flaw is that she isn't bind proof. Reincarnated Idunn & Idunna is without a dub an MVP for my team while the last sub, Moogle is a versatile utility with very low CD as a Fujin carrier.



Good luck and have fun. See you next time!
