So you’ve graduated from the Grasslands and think you’re ready to take on a different caliber of card player. Well, there are quite a few more Queen’s Blood players to challenge in the Junon region, and we’ll run you through all of them.
This is part of the Queen’s Blood quest line in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, which sees Cloud working his way through the ranks of a mysterious hit card game. As we soon learn, it may have some more sinister tones than he expects. We’ll only be covering the opponents who matter for levelling up in the Queen’s Blood standings in this guide.
There are six Queen’s Blood players to beat in Junon in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, ranging from Ranks X to X. You’ll find opponents will start to play a little better here, and you’ll probably want to start modifying your deck a bit if you haven’t already.
Isabelle
Rank: 3
Location: Under Junon
Reward: Card #96: Shiva
Strategy: You might start to see some new mechanics against Isabelle, and some degree of planning. Don’t worry too much, though. Her deck lacks a bit in firepower compared to big cards you might have at this point, like Titan. Secure the board against her, and you’ll rake in a fancy new legendary card in Shiva.
Zogan
Rank: 4
Location: Under Junon
Reward: Card #024: Zemzelett
Strategy: Zogan has some empowering cards, like Cactuar and the Crab, that you might be familiar with. Don’t fret too much, though. Board control can still win the day, and net you a fancy new Zemzelett for your Queen’s Blood collection.
The Moore Twins
Rank: 4
Location: Under Junon
Reward: None / Card #021: Ogre
Strategy: First off, you might have some trouble spotting these two. They’re located upstairs, past the Maghnata Books. They also involve some extra stakes: some gil lost if you lose. Additionally, you’ll have to beat both the Moore Twins to take the win. Your reward for this isn’t all that great, but you’ll need to beat them both to keep climbing the Queen’s Blood ranks, so teach those kids a lesson.
Michaela
Rank: 4
Location: The Crow’s Nest
Reward: Card #027: Mindflayer
Strategy: At this point, my strategy of grabbing a bunch of tiles and letting Shiva Diamond Dust the board was working wonders. Secure the space, and you’ll net a Mindflayer, a potentially new kind of card for you that can actively enfeeble other cards. We might not need that right now, but it will become an archetype you’re very familiar with by the end of your Queen’s Blood journey.
Neil
Rank: 4
Location: The Crow’s Nest
Reward: Card #30: Flametrooper
Strategy: Neil shouldn’t quit his day job for Queen’s Blood, but you can toast him pretty easily for his card, the Flametrooper. This card can do some surprising damage on the field, if the enemy puts up a bit of a wall. Keep it in mind if you end up going into the destroy deck archetype.
Cameron
Rank: 4
Location: The Crow’s Nest
Reward: Card #113: Midgardsormr
Strategy: At some point in this region, you’ll clear enough opponents to reach Rank 3, a.k.a. “Blood Squire.” Once you do, Chadley will contact you and let you know that a talented local by the name of Cameron is waiting to challenge you. These “story matches” are as necessary to advancing as beating the regular QB competitors, so head to the Crow’s Nest and challenge Cameron.
In my game, he was a surprisingly aggressive player who tried to storm into my side of the board early. Counter him in kind, and try to use some big bodies and empowering cards to beat his quantity with your quality. Clear it, and you’ll get both a big story cutscene and the card for Midgardsormr.
With Cameron and the rest of the Junon bunch cleared, you should be moving on up to Rank 4 in Queen’s Blood and achieving the title “Blood Acolyte.” With this, you’re ready for whatever gets thrown at you on the way to Corel and beyond, even a nautical QB tournament. Surely you won’t run into one of those.
