PAD Academy Review and Analysis – April 2020

Introduction

The PAD Academy makes a return to North America and comes with delightful school uniforms and glasses for some of your favourite characters.

As a whole, this event is top-heavy with many outdated cards across all rarities. Furthermore, it will be hard to find much value out of the 5 and 6-star cards which further lowers the motivation to roll.

With this in mind, PAD Academy is best approached by doing the free roll and then saving for a stronger event as most rolls will end in sadness from a usability point of view. Of course, if you have a thing for school outfits and glasses, this is the best time to make all your dreams become a reality.

This article will outline the pros and cons for each card within the PAD Academy event to give players a better understanding of what each monster can do.

PAD Academy Review and Analysis – May 2019

Introduction

The PAD Academy event returns to North America and is simply an underwhelming event. This is often the case with older events as GungHo seldom buffs the bottom rarity cards and PAD Academy is a 5-stone event.

Despite the fact that some of your favourite cards are dressed up in school uniforms, it cannot truly justify the mediocrity of this event and i would strongly encourage players to not roll in this event.

Regardless, this article will outline the strengths and weaknesses of this event to give players an idea of what each card has to offer.

PAD Academy REM Review and Analysis – June 2018

Introduction

The PAD Acedemy REM returns this Monday to North America. The event comes with 5 new characters, Limit Break/Super Awakenings for older cards, and the option to utilize the Monster Exchange System to acquire the 8-star cards.

All of this translates into an interesting event; however, the cards themselves are nothing special and after numerous lucrative events, it may be challenging to justify spending your Magic Stones here.

Unfortunately, many of the PAD Academy cards are reskins of existing (and lackluster) REM cards along with the 5 and 6-stars being horribly outdated.

On the bright side, there will be no more 4-star cards coming out of the Event REM and each roll will be festively dressed to fulfill all your School Boy/Girl fantasies.

All 8-star cards are available for trade within the Monster Exchange System. Sakuya  will be available for 300,000 Monster Points but this is unwise as she is underwhelming along with the June Monthly Quests giving one out as a reward for completion.

PAD Academy Review and Quick Analysis

Introduction

The PAD Academy REM is returning the Puzzle and Dragons along with several new cards and evolutions to existing Monsters. For the most part, this Collab is on the luxurious side as it offers modest value for the most part and is more for the collecting/pretty girl aspect. However, based on community feedback, Collab Reviews are important and Academy is more interesting than the Waferman Collab and deserves a quick overview.

With that being said, Monster Hunter Collab is coming to NA/EU soon (when, I do not know so don’t ask) along with new 6-star GFE so there is fierce competition for your Magic Stones.

Summer PAD Academy REM Analysis and Review

Introduction & Overview

School’s out and summer is in full swing. Does that mean beaches, sunshine, and lazy afternoons? Maybe for most people, but we have Puzzle and Dragons to play! Furthermore, GungHo is spoiling us with some of our favourite characters dressed up in fancy school girl/boy uniforms. The Summer PAD Academy REM features a diverse array of cards that are not only pleasing to the eye, but powerful as well.
