BATTLE TACTIC #8: SINGLE ATTRIBUTE BAKUGAN… MEGA POWER – AUGUST 2010
BATTLE TACTIC #8: SINGLE ATTRIBUTE BAKUGAN… MEGA POWER – AUGUST 2010
Single Attribute Bakugan… Mega Power
Don’t overlook powerful abilities that only apply to one of your Bakugan or Bakugan Battle Gear in your team.
The blue Ability Card, Enchanted Silver, boosts your Bakugan’s G-Power based on its attribute during a battle where you have a Silver Battle Gear in play. In this case, the Ability Card gives Darkus Bakugan a massive +150 G-Power boost. For a battle example, you can call a Darkus Plitheon to stand and then throw down a Silver Vilantor Gear to give Plitheon its first G-Power boost. Then, devastate your opponent by using Enchanted Silver and add even more Gs to Darkus Plitheon!

BATTLE TACTIC #7: POWER UP WITH DUAL ATTRIBUTES – JULY 2010

BATTLE TACTIC #7: POWER UP WITH DUAL ATTRIBUTES – JULY 2010
POWER UP WITH DUAL ATTRIBUTES
Battle Gear works great when you focus your force around two different attributes.
To get started making a dual-attribute force, take your Battle Gear and look at their reference cards. Each reference card has two special abilities, for two different attributes. Let’s look at the Battle Gear reference card, Battle Crusher.
It has the Haos ability: You get +50 G-Power for each Gate card in your enemy’s used pile if your enemy has more Gate cards in their used pile than you do.
And, it has the Darkus ability: If your opponent has a Gear or Trap at the battle, you get +50 G-Power.
Let’s say you want to build a force around the Battle Crusher Battle Gear card.
Start with your three best G-Powered Bakugan with those attributes. Make sure you have at least one Haos and at least one Darkus. Then, look for Ability cards that benefit both Haos and Darkus, so you’ll be able to use them no matter which of your Bakugan you roll.

Battle Tactic #6: Deploying Your Battle Gear – June 2010
From Bakugan.com
BATTLE TACTIC #6: BATTLE GEAR – JUNE 2010
Now that you’ve selected your Battle Gear, it’s time to use them in battle. Using your Battle Gear is an important strategy to winning the game. During your brawls, you will want to maximize the full potential of your Battle Gear by considering your arsenal and your timing.
DEPLOYING YOUR BATTLE GEAR
First things first, you should try to only deploy your Battle Gear on Bakugan that have matching attributes. It’s obviously not the best to add Battle Gear that have Special Abilities for Pyrus and Darkus to a Haos Bakugan.
Keep in mind that if you deploy Battle Gear on a Gate card whose color matches the Battle Gear’s icon — Copper, Silver, or Gold — you get to choose which Special Ability to use. Being able to use a specific Battle Gear Special Ability can spell the difference between crushing your opponent and losing the Gate Card!
Always keep in mind that your Bakugan gets the Battle Gear’s G-Power bonus whether or not its attribute matches the Battle Gear’s Special Abilities on the Reference Card. It might be a good play to deploy your Battle Gear for its G-Power alone.
Alternately, you can deploy a Trap and a Battle Gear in the same battle. This can let you use a Battle Gear’s Special Ability even if your Bakugan doesn’t match either of its Special Ability attributes! Using a Trap and a Battle Gear in the same battle uses up a lot of your resources all at once though, so be careful. Of course, if you can win your third Gate Card by deploying a Trap and Battle Gear at once, go for it! Remember, if you win the third and final battle you win the game.
While you’re battling, also note that you get to bring Battle Gear back from your Used pile to your Unused pile at the same time as your Bakugan. This can really affect when you choose to play your Battle Gear.

BATTLE TACTIC #5: BATTLE GEAR – MAY 2010
Moving right along with Battle Gear, one of your first decisions when creating your “team” will be choosing your Battle Gear. Now, this can be a fairly simple task, so let’s take a look at your options.
BATTLE TACTIC #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.
I hope you’ve enjoyed my first tip and I can’t wait to share more battle tactics with you each month.
