* MightyGlacier: Plenty of cards can be considered slow in Cipher, but the really strong ones include...
** [[https://serenesforest.net/wiki/index.php/Ike_(Cipher) Ike]], whose SR cards from Booster Set 3 and 5, General of the Divine Blade and Radiant Hero, respectively, become more powerful the more cards he has underneath it (termed as a "stack"). Good luck lasting long enough to both get Ike's stack big enough and pulling off his skills more than once.
*** While General of the Divine Blade, Ike, has at least 4 cards underneath him, he gains 10 Attack, and ''always breaks two Orbs'' when he defeats the Main Character.
*** Meanwhile, Radiant Hero, Ike, has the Aether skill, which lets him ''flip 5 Bonds'' to gain 10 Attack and destroy two of your opponent's other units when he attacks the Main Character. Sound expensive? His other skill is Memories of War, reducing the cost of using Aether by 1 Bond flip for every card stacked underneath him.

** Another example would include the various "Flip 3 Bonds, discard a card with the same name as this card" skills seen in the various "Lords" in Fire Emblem. While they give all of your units 30 Attack, a sizable boost, along with another effect, the requirements are immense, as one could instead use the Bonds to use other skills that they could have used while waiting to obtain enough Bonds to use the Flip-3 skill.
* BoringButPractical: Stall, or "Mage," decks. These feature a relatively low-Attack character as their Main Character, and attempt to buy time by hiding in the Back Line and using Godspeed Evasions, before promoting to a card that provides immense advantage, while whittling down their opponent's, often with the use of Manaketes or other powerful high-cost cards. Duels against these decks can often take an immense amount of time, and being unable to attack the Main Character is a hassle, in and of itself.
