First Ability:

Wedgemove Dragon binds a card from the hand and draws a card when his attack hits the vanguard. This ability provides multiple advantages for Gear Chronicle. It enables the strategy for some archetypes and draws a card.

Furthermore, Wedgemove Dragon is a good card for your first vanguard. You can bind a unit for usage later in the game for some decks. Then, you may draw a more useful card at the early stage of the game.

In addition, many archetypes from Gear Chronicle want to bind cards. The bind zone is a second hand or a source for abilities for Gear Chronicle. Units such as Interdimensional Dragon, Mystery-flare Dragon (V Series) and Steam Maiden, Elul (V Series) utilize the bind zone. 

Second Ability:

Wedgemove Dragon becomes a grade three unit when you discard him from the hand. You will only activate this ability when you need to pay a cost. Gear Chronicle discard cards to superior ride grade four units from the deck.

Gear Chronicle in the V Series has a similar strategy to Stride. The clan superior rides grade four units from the deck when you discard a number of cards with a sum of grade three or greater. You only need to discard this single card.

Therefore, Wedgemove Dragon is one of the best cards for this strategy. You conserve cards in the hand. You may save your grade three units in the hand to ride one of them on your next turn for an Imaginary Gift. 

Support:

Wedgemove Dragon is a generic card for Gear Chronicle. You can play this card in a variety of decks from the clan. Many archetypes can use his abilities. For instance, many decks in the clan superior ride grade four units and this card pays the cost for those abilities. 

Wedgemove Dragon is a great fit in decks with Steam Maiden. His ability complements the archetype’s strategy. Steam Maiden binds cards and superior call those units for additional battles. Wedgemove Dragon sets up the deck’s strategy for a wave of battles with Steam Maiden’s abilities.
