“ Liberating the Generation Zone! ”

—Chant for when declaring Stride

PR-0183EN (Sample)

Snow Element, Blizza

"Stride" (超越ストライド Sutoraido) is a keyword used in G Units, introduced in Movie Booster 1: Neon Messiah, which allows you to put a face down G unit located in your G Zone onto your (VC) face up when certain conditions and cost are fulfilled. It appears marked by an icon of a gear-like circle with "超越ストライド"/"Stride" written next to it; thump /thump.

How It Works

  • You can perform Stride in the stride step (which comes after the ride step while still being in the ride phase) when both you and your opponent have a grade 3 or greater vanguard by discarding cards in your hand with a total grade of 3 or more.
  • Next, select a face-down G unit from your G zone (It is located in front of the damage zone and to the left of the main field. It can hold up to 8 face-down cards at the start of the game, which includes a maximum of 4 copies' of identical G-Units just like a standard deck. Only G units may be placed here) and place it on your vanguard circle. Your previous vanguard becomes the Heart (they do not count towards the soul). If your vanguard was in Legion, both units become the Heart. If your vanguard was deleted, flip it face-up and it becomes the Heart.
  • When you have a Legion vanguard and you stride, place the G Unit on top of the 2 cards, and both of the units that are in Legion become the Heart. However, choose 1 of the Legion units, and the G unit only gains the power and name of that unit. (For example, when Harmonics Messiah is Stridden over Light Source Seeker, Alfred Exiv, it will have both the name "Harmonic Messiah" and "Light Source Seeker, Alfred Exiv", and it will have 27000 power.)
  • At the end of the turn, return the G Unit used for Stride to the G zone face-up, and your Heart are now treated as the vanguard. If your Heart were in Legion prior to Striding, they return in Legion state.
  • Striding does not count as a ride, so effects involving ride are not activated.
  • The G unit strides in the same state (Stand or Rest) as your vanguard before striding.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Question: What is "Stride"?
    Answer: "Stride" is a powerful ability to call a G unit from Generation Zone, and becomes a vanguard. The previous vanguard(s) becomes "Heart", and it is put under the G unit, and the number of the G Unit and Heart' power are summed. Also, when attacking, Drive Check is performed 3 times.
  2. Question: Until when Stride continues?
    Answer: Stride continues until the end of its owner's turn.
  3. Question: When performing Stride on a unit with a Break Ride ability, does the ability activates?
    Answer: No. Stride and ride are different actions, thus the effect cannot be used.
  4. Question: What happened when performing a Stride on a vanguard that is in Legion?
    Answer: Both vanguards that are in Legion became "Heart". When a Stride is performed, choose either of the Heart, and the power and the card name of the chosen Heart will be taken. At the end of turn, when the G unit is returned, both of the Heart became the vanguards in Legion status.
  5. Question: What happened when performing a Stride on a deleted vanguard?
    Answer:The vanguard would turned face up and become a "Heart", and the G unit and the Heart would combine normally.
  6. Question: What happened if you ride on a G Unit?
    Answer: The G Unit will return to the Generation Zone, and the Heart will go into your soul.

Background

What is Stride? (October 10, 2014)

"Stride" refers to the phenomena that heroes from the past and warriors from the future being summoned to modern Cray, due to the effect of the aberrant condition "Interdimensional Crosstalk".
One who possesses a specific and strong image of power they are seeking, and the warrior whose wavelength overlaps with that image. As their wavelengths superpose, the mighty warrior can be temporarily summoned from the Interdimensional Crosstalk.
Most cases of "Stride" are incidental events generated from the sub-conscious of individuals involved, but it is said that a mysterious party whose members use "Stride" intentionally emerges, stirring up the situation.

What is Stride? (December 5, 2014)

The phenomenon known as "Stride" has been reported in many places of Cray. An armed group, calling themselves "Gear Chronicle", manipulate a very similar technique. Among the members of the group, some individuals can create portal-like force fields in the space, and researchers call these force fields "Gate". It is considered that the phenomenon is, in essence, the summoning of beings outside this world through the Gates. At this point, it is reported that these beings have been observed in all nations of Cray, including the colossal dragon came into view on the spot where "Stride" occurred in Dragon Empire. Further actions include collection of information about "Gear Chronicle", plus investigation and analysis of "Stride", in collaboration with the knightly orders.

Bearers of Stride (Jan 13th, 2015)

Due to the great war in the past, planet Cray was scarred by "Interdimensional Crosstalk". Though "Gear Chronicle" descended to Cray in order to cure the damage, the "Gate" they created within the distortion of spacetime caused accidental opening of "Gates" in many places of Cray, and lead to the occurrence of the phenomenon "Stride". Now, "Gear Chronicle" is trying to maintain the balance of spacetime with a new method, that is, to send emissaries to different nations and teach those potent beings the technique to control "Stride". More and more bearers of this technique are emerging, including "Altmile" of the Holy Nation, "Thavas" of Marine Nation, and "Ahsha" of Green Nation.
Heralded by powerful image is the encounter with "Hope" and "Possibilities". And so the curtain is opened, of the new history of planet Cray---

The "Rampage" of "Stride" and the meaning of the Gates (Monthly Bushiroad February 2015 Issue)

When "Stride" is done under control, beings from other spacetimes are summoned to modern times through "Gates". The Gates are force fields created on Cray by "Gear Chronicle". The Gates can input simple knowledge of modern times into summoned beings' brains to allow communication, and send the summoned beings back to their original epochs under the will of the summoners. Furthermore, the Gates have the impressive function as a memory device, cleaning and storing the memories of the summoned beings when they return, and re-inputting the memories when they are summoned again. However, if a summoner loses their consciousness when performing "Stride", the functions of the Gate would be ceased. The summoned beings are unable to return in such cases. This is the accident of "Stride", known as "Rampages".

The Timespan of "Stride" (Monthly Bushiroad March 2015 Issue)

The timespan of "Stride" is mostly determined by the synchronization between the two parties. As long as the wavelengths of the summoner and the summoned remain superposed, the summoned can maintain its existence in the modern Cray. The training of "Stride" is to train the minds of the summoners, to control their emotions and maintain the feelings of superposition without shaking.

The Heroes' "Possibilities in the Future" (Apr 3rd, 2015)

"Stride" is a magi-technology that summons heroes from "another era", surpassing time and space. This technique enhances temporal contact with "beings existed" in the past and "beings that would exist" in the future. One notable point is that beings summoned from the future are "beings of possibilities". According to the messenger from Gear Chronicle, there are multiple diverging points on the timeline to reach beings in the future, and it is possible to summon the same individual in different forms due to differential synchronization with his or her mind. This information agrees with the opinions of our corporation's prophets, and is judged as creditable. Among the many beings successfully summoned all over the world, the beings from the future are merely possibilities, and they are not necessarily realized in the future. Staff working on future information should keep this in mind and ensure proper management of information.
