Things We Know: DC Dice Masters


Lots of good stuff in this January edition of Game Trade Magazine. 

First, we get clear pics of a WHOLE BUNCH of dice. We also have a few super rares identified, and they reiterate the three cards - Batman, Wonder Woman, and Constantine - that they showed once before.

Join us after the jump for more.




The Dice


Just look at those! They're lovely! First off, we get a nicely confirmed Booster Gold there, three in from the right. These look fantastic!

Here's who I see:

Flash (Red, bolt with circle)
Wonder Woman (Red w/ logo)
Green Arrow (tan w/ arrow)
Green Lantern (Green w/ logo)
Catwoman (Grey w/ her face)
Green Lantern Power Ring (Green w/ ring)
Blue Beetle (Blue w/ insect logo)
Cyborg (White with red face)
Black Canary (Yellow with bird)
Constantine
Zatanna (Purple w/ magician's hat)
Deathstroke (Orange w/ his face)
The Atom (Blue w/ atom logo)
Captain Marvel (Red w/ bolt)
Joker (Purple w/ green face)
Martian Manhunter
Booster Gold (Yellow w/ star)
Harley Quinn (Red w/ her head)
Sinestro (Yello w/ Yellow Lantern logo)
Superman (Duh)
Batarang (White non-basic action)
Lex Luthor (Green die with purple Lexcorp logo)
Firestorm (Yellow w/ his head)
Robin (Red w/ Robin logo)
Red Tornado (Blue w/ the last airbender)
Spectre (White with shrouded figure)
Darkseid (Possibly? The color scheme is like the Colossus die, which doesn't follow)
Solomon Grundy (The zombie hand? Maybe?)
Zod (Black & Gold; not 100% sure here; Could be Plastic Man)
Batman (Duh)
Aquaman (Green with his yellow belt logo)
Constantine (Cream w/ Pentacle)
Deadman (white w/ red head/collar)
Brainiac (Grey w/ three purple dots)
Starman (Blue die w/ staff)
Katana (White die w/ mask and red dot)
Black Manta (Black w/ Manta's head)
Vixen (Gold with catlike logo)

I know I'm missing a few here. Help out! It's also hard to see all of these and my brains started to boil after a little while. Here's what we don't have a guess for yet:

Orange die on the far left
The brown and gold one on the right
The tan and blue one on the right


The Super Rares

The article spoils the four super rare cards - Constantine, Black Canary, Catwoman, and The Flash.

We also know their abilities! Here's a quote from the article:

"Constantine – Hellblazer is a great foil to any opponent who only has one focus on winning. They’ll be forced to play around him all game. When The Flash is by himself, he can’t be blocked. Catwoman uses your opponent’s strongest dice against them. Black Canary will clear away your opponent’s potential blockers."


The Organized Play

DC Dice Masters Organized Play will follow the Trinity War event - a five-month cycle. The final OP award will be a villain that is not otherwise in the set. Trinity War was a 2013 event that saw a few iterations of the Justice League battling over Pandora's Box and also brought in Earth-3.

    1. For real I was always expecting this set to be great, but this REALLY looks great.
