Nope.

Maybe its time for another few lines for the riddle? Or a hint.

Is it a triple triad card?

Yes.

*Trawls Card-FAQs on GameFAQs - zat cheatin'?* ... Squall card?

Not cheating perhaps but maybe not in the spirit of the game! :jess: I can't remember what all the character cards mod into but I am going to just guess the Selphie Card.

Not the Selphie card either.

I started thinking of Devil May Cry 3 and there was that boss Leviathan, it had 3 hearts, so I'm gonna guess Leviathan card. It is good in the southwestern corner too.

I hardly remember the cards individually, just that all the characters had them.

Gamblet has a good point, the southwest- could mean it should be played in southwest (weak bottom & left)?

The "part of the heart in foreign language"- the closest thing I could come up with in heart is pulmonary edema- which the word is close to "Edea"? But I have no idea about the subtle as a sledgehammer.

So I will guess the Edea card?

That's a good point, good work team. :)

subtle as a slegehammer might refer to a card that is good at Triple Triad like a sledgehammer at repairing armour, weapons etc.

pupu

I'm just going to list all possible words for "heart"...by why of phrases with some..

core; feelings; emotions; center; middle; soul; spirit; love;

"At the heart of it all."
"You've got a pure heart."
"It is in one's heart, not to try any idiotic-sty..."
"She's my heart...."

I know I've missed some....

None of the above.

Correct! :D

The Edea card is strong in the north (A) and east (A), weak in the south (3) and west (3), so it's obviously placed in the lower left corner (southwest) in regular play.

It's not related to edema. Admittedly this is obscure. A triple bypass reroutes blood around blocked coronary arteries. Corona is Latin for crown, hence triple bypass refers to the 3 Royal Crowns the Edea card can be refined into.

Very nice.
