We haven’t seen terms for these put out anywhere so we’re just going to put them here? Coined terms I suppose? Let us know if a term for what’s listed already exists and we’ll take ours down.

Edit: We do NOT claim to have come up with any of these terms/phrases. Nor do we believe we should. Rephrasing, we haven't seen these terms put out anywhere- though we've seen them used. We are documenting them, if anyone is aware of the original creator(s) of said terms please let us know.

“Front Triggers” - The people, places, things, ideas, and scenarios that may cause a system member to front.

“Positive Front Trigger” - The people, places, things, ideas, and scenarios that cause a system member to front due to positive associations.

“Neutral Front Trigger” -  The people, places, things, ideas, and scenarios that cause a system member to front due to neutral associations.

“Negative Front Trigger” -  The people, places, things, ideas, and scenarios that cause a system member to front due to negative associations.

“Force Front” - When a system member forcibly removes someone from front to take their place. Alternatively when a system member purposefully uses positive, neutral, or negative fronting triggers to bring a specific member to front.

“Force Switch” - When a system member forcibly switches in or out of front due to any number of reasons.

     Examples; Pos/neu/neg triggers, friends/partners are near, something the system member is working on comes up, etc.

“Covert Switch” - A switch between system members that is natural and hard to notice at first, alternatively a switch that isn’t forced.

Not every clan will be getting Front Triggers

A leaked image from the Japanese First Guides packaged with the first Standard format flash decks reveals that not every clan will be getting Cardfight!! Vanguard's newest trigger type.

Front Trigger

“All of your front-row units gain +10000 Power. This is a trigger that only certain clans possess.”

As Front Triggers were created to replace Stands--which producer Shimamura Masatoshi confirmed there will be no more of--it's possible that Bushiroad R&D is seeking to balance Fronts by only giving them to the clans specifically designed for them. Front benefits Accel clans much more than it does Force or Protect, as it addresses both their weakness of being unable to boost their additional rearguard circles and their comparative defensive weakness by giving them a more powerful damage check.

Of note is that where the First Guide describes the different unit abilities like Boost and Intercept, no description of Triple Drive!!! is presented, reinforcing the suspicions that there will be no strides in Standard format.
