Phantasy Star Online Episode 3 C.A.R.D. Revolution - Famitsu Cup Quest

The Famitsu is no stranger to Phantasy Star. It usually takes place in the form of Maximum Attack where you have to kill as many enemies as possible within a time limit. It's been seen several times on Phantasy Star Online and Phantasy Star Universe and usually features rewards of some kind if enough enemies are killed during the event. What is not widely known is that Episode 3 also had a Famitsu event. The event started and ended before the English version of Episode 3 was released, resulting in this event never having been made available to English players.

In the Episode 3 incarnation of Famitsu, you face 2 Arkz opponents at the same time. The rules state that no Assist Cards can be used and the match has a time limit of 30 minutes. This battle can be difficult - your opponents love to surround you with monsters and hit you repeatedly with techniques. Once your surrounded, it can be very difficult to escape. You can choose to be either a Hunter or Arkz side character for this battle, and both have their own advantages and disadvantages here. Hunters are at risk of being surrounded by monsters and having difficulty breaking free to reach the enemy Arkz before the time limit expires. Arkz can summon creatures right by their opponents, but will face constant technique attacks from the enemy monsters on their vulnerable Story Characters. Guard Items and Guard Creatures are very useful here, and a few Companion Cards can be helpful too.

With no Assist Cards able to be played, I choose to use the Rati Mag in my deck because it grants the Fly ability.

How did you got access to the quest of Famitsu Cup CranberryFo? Thx. :-)

[CranberryFo]

@KamatsuKyoto It was offered as a download quest for a short time on the Japanese Sega servers during the Famitsu event. Someone once had a copy of it up on a Fuzziquer server and I downloaded it from there. They permanently took down the server quite some time ago and I haven't seen the quest up anywhere since.  I don't know how you'd get it today.
