    battletacticslogo 300x76 Battle Tactics #1: Gate Card Placement   January 2010

    Welcome to the first issue of Battle Tactics with BrightLight!

    I’m very excited to bring you this new article which will be published monthly, highlighting battle strategies for you to hone your brawling skills and become a top brawler. And with Baku-Con just around the corner, there’s no better time than now to develop your brawling tactics!

    Let’s get this brawl started with my first strategy tip!

    Gate Card Placement: Conditional

    The order in which you play your Gate cards is almost as important as which cards you choose to play with. Gate cards are unusual as they don’t necessarily do anything outside of a battle. It’s not until they are actually used in a brawl that you will see their full affect. So, you have to strategically think ahead when playing Gate cards.

    Using a card more than once is a great battle tactic! Take for example, the Gate card ‘Flybeetle Rescue’ which allows you to put a used Red Ability card into your unused pile. When using this Gate card you need to make sure that by the time a battle begins on the card that you have a Red Ability card in your used pile. If you are using a Red Ability card with a generic use like ‘Try Again’, which allows you to re-roll any Pyrus, Haos, or Subterra Bakugan, then don’t play ‘Flybeetle Rescue’ until you have already used ‘Try Again’. However, if you are using a Red Ability card like ‘Flames of Light’ then you can play ‘Flybeetle Rescue’ first. Then, use the ‘Flames of Light’ to add a Bakugan to the Gate card when your opponent lands on it.

    Using Gate cards and Ability cards in a strategic order is critical to claiming ultimate victory on the battlefield and is one of the most basic but necessary tactics to keep in mind.

      what is your strongest bakugan

    11. i have only battled twice:with my cousin and second with a kid at a toysrus thing.i thought it would have been more crowded but 1 of the workers told me it was crowded like an hour ago.plus i had to let the kid use my bakugan,and he won!!the good thing was that was his first battle,so it built some confidence.

    12. how old are you

    13. oops (turbine)

      lol I barely battle bcause of the place im from, I just battle with a friend whenever i get the chance (hardly ever). This kind of time lets me work on my strategies, thats my expertise, using bakugan in a way u wouldnt expect.

    15. same with me.because i barely battle,i have time to figure out many possible strategies.the next time i battle someone,they’ll be in for a huge surprise.
