Description

The 2018 Weiß Schwarz Fate/Apocrypha expansion captures the intense conflict of the Great Holy Grail War, bringing beloved anime characters into the strategic realm of the trading card game. Among the diverse roster of Servants, the "Lord of the Land" Lancer of Black stands out as a pivotal character for players who appreciate synergistic board control and resource management. Identified by the set code APO/S53-TE11, this TD rarity card offers distinct gameplay mechanics that reward careful deck construction and tactical timing. As a Character card with the Servant and Royalty subtypes, Lancer of Black provides consistent value through its continuous effect. The card grants a +500 power boost to all allied characters positioned in front of it, making it an excellent anchor for defensive strategies or for supporting high-power finishers. This ability allows collectors and players to build cohesive units that can withstand heavy pressure while maintaining offensive potential. The card’s auto effect adds a layer of strategic depth, particularly during the early game. When placed on the stage from the hand, players reveal the top card of their deck.

The trade-off involves discarding a card from the hand to the waiting room, creating a dynamic risk-reward scenario that tests a player's decision-making skills. This interaction highlights the intricate balance of resource management that defines the Weiß Schwarz experience. Collectors of anime-themed TCGs often seek out specific Servants to complete themed collections or to enhance their competitive decks. The "Lord of the Land" Lancer of Black card represents a key piece of the Fate/Apocrypha narrative, offering both nostalgic appeal and functional utility. Its unique abilities make it a versatile addition to any collection, appealing to those who value both the artistic representation of their favorite characters and the strategic depth of the game.
