Swordsman of the Explosive Flames, Palamedes returns to Cardfight!! Vanguard with two new skills. He also has a Force marker. These new skills give him more playability than his original version. I prefer his new artwork over his original art from the original Cardfight!! Vanguard. This artwork is full of life, and this is a common trend with units in Cardfight!! Vanguard V.

Swordsman of the Explosive Flames, Palamedes’s first skill soul charges one card when he becomes the vanguard or a rear-guard. This skill is useful in decks with Soul Saver Dragon. Palamedes is preparing your winning image. He is an additional resource for charging cards into the soul. You want to soul charge early and often in games.

Finally, Swordsman of the Explosive Flames, Palamedes serves as a good backup vanguard for a deck with Soul Saver Dragon. His skills can be used on the vanguard circle and rear-guard circle.
