Twisted-Vanguard: If TWST Boys plays CFV - Heartslabyul Edition
Yeah, I'm making a self-indulge Twisted Wonderland x Cardfight!! Vanguard crossover because I can. Combining my recent favorite game with my all-time favorite anime (don't judge me!) is kinda inevitable. 
Mostly I'm just finding the perfect clan for the TWST boys according to the clan's main mechanic. I'm not ready yet to rewrite the whole Twisted-Wonderland Card Game AU just yet (maybe someday) or choosing which units and playstyle of the TWST boys, but at least I'll have an early material to work with.
To premise this: It had been a long time since I've played Vanguard and my knowledge is very limited, so there will be some mistakes. I'm focusing on using the original and G-series installation, not the V-series or OverDress because I'm a boomer. For this matching, I'll be using the TWST boys' unique magic to make my job easier, but for those who hadn't got their UM, there will be a bonus section.
So, let’s stand up, Vanguard! Heartslabyul Edition!
1. Riddle Rosehearts
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clan Chosen: Link Joker
Link Joker’s playstyle focuses on 'lock'. Basically, they can make their opponent's units unusable without removing them from the field. Some units can give extra advantages like giving you an extra attack or disadvantages like forcing your opponent to place a card on the field and locking it, lessening the playing area of your opponent's.
Now, you read this and tell me this doesn't sound suspiciously similar to 'Off With Your Head'? Right of the bat, when I made this AU for the first time, I immediately knew what clan is perfect for Riddle who just love to put magic collar that can render you magicless.
2. Deuce Spade
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clan Chosen: Angel Feather
Angel Feather's playstyle focuses with the damage zone, either by swapping cards between hand and zone, gaining extra power when a card enters the zone, or just straight-up healing. With that, it's easier to remove face-down card to gain extra charge for counterblast.
Now this might sound weird. You see, I can give Deuce one of the more offensive clan, but remember I'm basing this on their unique magic. Deuce's unique magic reflects his opponents attack, like a mirror. Now, in a vanguard fight, you lose when you have six damages in your damage zone and to give damage to your opponent, you need to attack their vanguard. Deuce's 'Bet the Limit' and Angel Feather's mechanic is nearly the same: gaining advantages from taking attacks from damages.
3. Trey Clover
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clan Chosen: Neo Nectar
Neo Nectar's playstyle focuses on gaining advantages from having the same card name as the units that are already on the field, like gaining extra power or adding new move.
Choosing a clan for Trey is hard because I don't want to give him similar clan to controlling-focus unique magic like Ruggie or Jamil. But something we have to admit that 'Doodle Suit' is honestly underused. You can rewrite any magic no matter how temporary it is as your own. Neo Nectar and Trey's UM have advantages from having/ rewriting to the same name.
4. Cater Diamond
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clan Chosen: Murakumo
Murakumo's playstyle focuses on 'cloning', basically summoning multiple copies of their units from the deck at once, which means you can get extra attack.
I'm actually debating whether I should give Cater Neo Nectar or Murakumo because both clans gain advantages from having units with the same name. But in the end, I went for Murakumo because of the 'shadow clone tactic' which is basicaly just Cater's 'Split Card'. There's just no denying it.
+1 Ace Trappola
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clan Chosen: Aqua Force
Aqua Force's playstyle focuses on tactical movement. Many of the units' skills can be activated after a certain number of battles have occurred during that turn.
Our dear Ace here doesn't have a unique magic as far as we know, so I don't know which deck is actually good for him. But, let's try and see him for a moment. In our first meeting with Ace, we thought he was a good kid until he called Grim a tanuki. There's something between Ace and his timing of the revelation, how throughout the story we see him actually being smarter than we thought but only show it at a certain moment. This is the same as Aqua Force where they would gain power during a certain turn of attack. So, temporarily, Ace will be using this clan.
