It's probably the biggest /co/ related game out there, does /co/ dig it?
>>152768468I like the arts for it at least
>>152769264On average it's been pretty good. There's only been a handful I've seen that I thought looked bad. Pic not related, I like the storybook style.
>>152768468I play with a friend of mine off and on but I mostly play online with ink table to try out new decks. I usually suck at tcgs but this one is really good for beginners.
>>152768468Is Kingdom Hearts involved?
>>152769405No, and if there is a God it never will be.
>>152768468I remember this game, they got caught using AI.
>>152769593One freelance artist used AI for like two cards, hardly a systemic issue.
>>152768468Love it. Very excited to abuse Tod and Mulan from the new set by introducing them to Alice-Growing Girl.
>>152769976Seems overly complicated at the moment, but I like the theory.
>>152770378Is it really that complicated? If you have all 3 out, plus a a few items, you quest with Tod (2), and use the Support ability that Alice gives him to boost Mulan up by 6 power. Then, you quest with Mulan (6), and use her Support on Alice. Then target Tod with an item to ready him, and quest again (2), giving his Support to Alice, which activates her ability and lets her quest for (5), and if you have any more items, you could have Tod quest one more time (2). So, in a single turn, you could gain 14 to 16 lore on this combo.
>>152770583And here's Mulan, for those who haven't seen her yet.
>>152770583>still no good sources for hi-res versions of the art on the card.So annoying. I think the enchanted version of this at least had a playmat.Is it even usable any more? Thought they were removing sets now.
>>152770583In practice, yes. Blurple will Elsa/Hades/Let It Go everything, Dogs will Under the Sea you, Amber/Steel or Purple/Steel will just go brrrr while casting Strength, and regular Blue Green will Phillip wipe you.I'm not against the idea, I just don't think it's practical.
>>152770638I think that'll be set 13, but even then, they reprinted Alice in Fabled, so she's safe for many sets to come.
>>152770640Practical, maybe not, it's unlikely that you can pull the whole combo off. I was just saying it wasn't *complicated*.
>>152770685Besides, you can always use Tiny Tim's Crutch as Tod's item if you can't get Alice out, and that's still a swing for 10. Tod and Mulan could be an absolute menace together.
Tick Tock, dogs fags.
>>152770640>>152771146I haven't been able to get out to a league night or tourney in a few sets due to an injury... are Dogs the meta right now?
>>152771397Dogs is easily the most powerful deck right now, in large part because this bitch accelerates the whole deck a ton.
>>152771809>deck full of dogs >the TREE is the bitchThat's funny.
>it acknowledges Gargoylesimpressive
>>152772315Yeah, they were featured in the last set, and they even added Eliza's gargoyle form in the current set.
>>152772397And also Angela. I don't know if this was intentional, but I seem to recall that Goliath's wings had a similar effect when he possessed the Eye of Odin.
>>152772437Found a screen cap of it. Similar idea, from the looks of it, but the card gives the stars higher detail.
>>152772437I think it's most likely because this is a Dreamborn card, and Dreamborn characters tend to be more fanciful "idealized" versions of the characters.
>>152772473Oh for sure, I wouldn't doubt that. It could still be a reference to the episode, but I don't see the Eye anywhere on her costume.
I wonder how long it'll take to get into the really modern TV stuff. I think the most recent we've seen was Duck Tales 2017.
>>152772888I'm not sure if you're just counting TV stuff, but I think the most recent properties are either Moana 2, or Raya, if you're not counting sequels. But yeah, for modern TV stuff, it would be cool to see some Gravity Falls or Owl House in there.
>>152772990Well I did specifically say TV. Also those shows are lame and gay, give me Phineas and Ferb.
>>152773010Ha, that's fine. Everyone's going to have different opinions on which ones should be in the game. Actually, I wonder if that might be a reason why they're hesitant to start adding them. Maybe they think they'll get backlash from one rabid Fandom or the other if they're upset at not being included.
>>152773076Maybe. I think they've done a good job of mostly focusing on the "timeless" classics while including some of the more popular modern stuff, with a few niche fan favorites like Gargoyles or Black Cauldron.
>>152773188I might have a bias as a Gargoyles fan, but I didn't think it was all that niche? I mean, not compared to Black Cauldron, at least.
>>152773234In the grand scheme of Disney TV cartoons it's pretty niche. It's definitely no Duck Tales or Goof Troop or Rescue Rangers.
>>152768468I like it. I'm not very good at playing it, but I like it.
>>152773327I'd *really* like to say 'No, shut up, you're WRONG.', but you're probably right. I'm just going to cross my arms, stick out my bottom lip, and petulantly whine that's it's underrated and people have NO taste.
>>152773510I hear ya. I haven't placed in a serious tournament yet, but I'll be damned if I'm not having fun trying.

>>152774449It's like Magic The Gathering, except Disney characters, and also not terrible.
>>152774647Problem is you’d have to support Disney to get into it
>>152774897Sure, but you could always proxy, if that's your preference.
>>152775204Proxy what? The good stuff’s over.
>>152775551What do you mean? They haven't even gotten to Pixar yet.
>>152775620I thought he meant proxy shows. I didn’t know you could proxy cards too.
Have they added Pepper Ann yet?
>>152768468I think its funny how Anna always gets a sword in spinoff stuff but not in the actual movies
>>152775703No idea why they keep wanting to make her some kind of warrior.
I miss him.
>>152768468nah, they make the art for the cards with AI
>>152776435It was just one guy.
>>152769629It was 3
>>152775666Oh yeah, sorry Satan. It's a common TCG term to 'proxy' a card by printing out said card instead of actually owning it. Thereby denying Disney their sheckles. But, don't bullshit me, you're all streaming D+ anyway, you lying hypocrites.
>>152770583>re-reads his old post>14 to 16Jesus Christ, can I even MATH?I meant 15 to 17.I am retard.
>>152776152Cause Elsa is the sorceress, obviously, so you have to maintain the balance.
>>152777445Who cares?By the way, I love Lorcana, but not because of the game itself (I don't know how to play) but because I love to see the "alternative versions" of Disney's characters (Dreamborn and Floodborn). >>152775703Some ideas, like this Anna Knight are similar to heir designs back in Mirrorverse.
>>152768468How do I become Mickey?I want kisses from my beautiful mouse wife.
>>152776435They immediately fired the dude that tried pulling that.
>>152772888I saw somewhere that they do a survey on which shows/movies people want to see
>>152778688They do at least one survey each set to get general feedback on the game, and so far they've actually done a good job of listening to what people want.
>>152776152Warrior women are hot.
>>152778808I miss when this card was playable.
>>152778808>princess knightI love those hentai
She needs better cards. It's bullshit that Robin got all the good ones.
>>152779635That particular one was pretty unique at least. I was considering building an Ally deck, but never got around to it.
>>152779878Blue Steel allies is actually a solid deck, Marian just doesn't fit into the curve and isn't worth it sadly. Especially since Sapphire is just going to ramp to Cindy every game.
>>152779896I don't pay much attention to the meta, but I could definitely see potential there. Good to hear that my instincts were pointing me in the right direction. Maybe I'll look into an Ally deck again in the future.
>>152770603>Mulan>Clearly her brotherWhat a blunder.
>>152780501Look, they note their mistake in the errata all the time and Ravensburger has apologized profusely. They thought Mulan was his LAST name.
>>152780501>>152780580Ha! Trust a dude like Ping to be labeled ''Mulan" and STILL come out looking like the hyper masculine Chad that he is.
I wish it was easier to make a whole playable deck out of one franchise. I want a Hundred Acre Woods deck that is exclusively Winnie the Pooh characters and locations.
>>152781079Well there's something coming you're probably going to like.
>>152781090Oh shit, when did they announce this?!
>>152781111Officially they haven't. But there were confirmed leaks of it.
>>152781120Yeah, that seems to be the case after googling around a bit. Very excited for another Illumineer's Quest. Interesting that they're not tying themselves down to the idea of having each one backed by a big Disney villain (unless this Vine is a puppet of one of them).
>>152781090Oh yeah! I forgot that was a thing.
>>152777445It looks like AI was only used for the backgrounds.I don't blame him, painting backgrounds sucks
>>152781090Palace Heist was a huge improvement on Deep Trouble, so it'll be cool to see what they do in the newest one. Hopefully it will continue to grow in quality.
>>152781090Fuck yes, Hunny Wizard Pooh!They must be listening to our feedback. Hunny Wizard was such a great character design for Pooh, but the card was so boring. Glad they're bringing it back!
>>152781695I want an even bigger Hunny Wizard that can shift on to the existing. Like 10 cost shift 8 fucking eldrazi. Pooh, The Honey's End.
>>152781752Hunny God Pooh: Sweet Jesus
>Next Disney Lorcana Challenge is Infinity FormatGuess who's back?Back again.Discards back.Cards in hand?
>>152777445that's the only one who got caught so far, who knows how many more are just AI
>>152782537Well, get to work, AI Detective! Go catch those bad guys!
>>152782850That's a boy, so you're gay.
>>152768468at least got some of the black cauldren
>>152783287I was surprised to see that they put more Cauldron into the next set. I thought it would be one and done.
>>152783287All the cards suck though.
>>152783818Honestly, I've never actually watched the movie. Kind of want to, despite hearing that it's not great.
>>152776152It's not like she has all that much to her character otherwise.
>>152784222I guess they could make her a... sandwich chef?She'd never finish them, though.
>>152783212No way, Jose!
>>152776152she decked a guy in the face in the original movie and liked a joan of arc painting, so there's a little backing to it
I don't understand some of the picks for the continental championships.
>>152785340I've always wondered if they just pick the ones *they* like, or if they pick ones that are popular among players, but even then, I often wonder who these players are? I'm not sure if I've heard much hype about any of these cards.
>>152785846They did admit that these cards were picked "a while ago", so it's likely cards they like and assumed would be big.
>>152785878Sounds about right.
>>152782537I doubt most artists are going to risk tanking future career prospects solely because they wanted to cut corners.
>>152770603Is it just me or is this card nuts? You just need to boost her up and she'll start snowballing.
>>152768468Marvel Rivals is bigger
>>152787116Agreed. All it takes is a support character or two, and Mr. Ping here wrecks shop.
>>152787130Any video game is going to be bigger and more accessible than a card game, I'm pretty sure OP meant compared to other card games.
>>152785359I don't mind this one... reminds me of a cross between Flynn Rider and Rockstar Stitch, from a game mechanic point of view.
>>152768468>It's probably the biggest /co/ related game out thereIt does depend on where you live. Some places it's very active, some places it's dead in the water.In the TCG sphere, it is doing well, but it is nowhere near and never will be near the popularity of the Big 3 of Pokemon, YuGiOh, and Magic the Gathering, which causes some people to get all doom and gloomy about it online for clicks.
>>152789489There's a good chance it's overtaking YGO in the west, YGO has been in a steep decline for years now. Most card shops don't even carry it anymore because of how little people are buying the product. Meanwhile MTG is doing its best to follow suit with UB.If anything it has to compete with One Piece and Digimon.
>>152789980I don't know how people can stand shit like YGO where turn 1 or 2 wins are not uncommon at all. Hell someone recently came up with a fucking turn 0 win.
>>152768468>does /co/ dig it?I have some cards but my biggest complaint with Lorcana is the cost of meta decks, last time I checked they tend to run into the triple-digits and Pokémon has had that problem locked away in a vault since the early SV sets. I'd also complain about the lack of a fixed pull rate in booster boxes but I'm not sure if that's been addressed in recent sets.>>152769405KH stuff is something that's possible (especially after the success of MTG's FF set) but I wouldn't expect them after a year or so, I've seen some people ask for KH stuff in general and Disney seems to be cautiously approaching the IP with each passing year.
>>152790207Have you tried not being poor?
>>152790237His president doesn't allow that.
>>152790207The fact that they're meta decks is the only reason they're that expensive. That's the problem, when someone thinks they've 'solved' the meta, it drives up the price of those cards because everyone wants to copycat. It also makes tournament play boring when you keep running into the same decks. But everything besides the meta cards? Mostly cheap as heck.
>>152768468Cute
>>152791823And stuff shifts up and down a ton. Dumbo was 70 bucks when he came out but now he's closer to 30.
>>152793433Is he? I might have to grab a few. I haven't checked prices in a while.
>>152793462Oh I guess he bounced back up to 40. But still noticeably cheaper than when Fabled came out.
>>152791823No, anon is pointing to the fact that Pokemon's metadecks aren't similar expensive, but there's different reasons there. One, Pokemon is a fucking speculation hellscape, so there's actually a completely different market dynamic going on. It's incredibly easy to get most cards, because the people dumping money into the boosters to try and hit it big on the cards worth hundreds of dollars are flooding the market with everything else.But, and I don't know exactly what Lorcana is doing here, Pokemon has also made it so it's fairly trivial to get at least any version of a card. All the truly rare, expensive cards are actually just alt art versions of otherwise easier to obtain, and thus cheaper, cards. So if you're just in it for the actual game, it's incredibly easy to get a proper meta deck.I couldn't say which of these is the bigger factor. It feels like the glut of cards caused by the former is probably tipping the scales, but also that wouldn't matter if the meta cards were still actually rare and the subject of the speculative market. It's the latter that keeps that from happening anyway.
I'm happy this thread has been alive for so long. There's barely ever any discussion on /tg/
>>152793481I don't follow pokemon at all but what does a top tier meta card go for? Like the guy above pointed out the most expensive Lorcana cards rarely break 40 bucks a piece.
>>152768468who kissed mickey
>>152794502That's a stupid question.
>>152794527Different anon here... where's her lipstick, tho?
>>152794590On Mickey.
>>152794491Agreed, all they ever do is talk about anime games or bitch about FAB.
i can't lie, i just come to these threads to look at the pretty pictures
>>152794690That's fair.
>>152794650Or how Commander is awful, or great, or ruining the game or saving it.
>>152794493>>152790207 here, I brought up the the comparison between the prices of Pokémon's and Lorcana's decks because of the sheer difference between them.>What does a top tier meta card go for?Let me put it this way: the price of one meta DECK for Pokémon costs around the same price (give or take 10 bucks) of Dumbo.Here are the overall costs for five of Pokémon's meta decks right now at their lowest rarity:>Dragapult ex: $51.03 (most expensive card is Neo Upper Energy ACE SPEC at 20 bucks)>Gardevoir ex: $41.54 (Most expensive cards are Secret Box ACE SPEC and Mew ex at 10 bucks each)>Gholdengo ex: $26.70 (Most expensive card is Fezandipidi ex at 3-to-4 bucks)>Charizard ex: $35.99 (Most expensive card is Charizard ex at 4-to-5 bucks per card)>Mega Absol Box: $33.28 (Most expensive card is Precious Trolley ACE SPEC at 4 bucks)The thing that I've noticed about Pokémon is that TPCi will make products that help players get into the competitive scene (Dragapult ex, Gardevoir ex, and Charizard ex have League Battle Decks based around them) and those products also cause the price of singles to drop. Another issue I noticed is that the pack structures between Lorcana and Pokémon are vastly different.For recent PokémonTCG sets you generally have this kind of pack structure:>4 Commons>3 Uncommons>1 Reverse Holo (which can be either a common or a rare)>1 Reverse Holo, Illustrator Rare, Secret Illustrator Rare, or Hyper Rare>1 Rare, Double Rare, or Ultra Rare card>1 Code CardMeanwhile, I was able to find this little breakdown on Lorcana's packs but it doesn't account for Epics and Iconics:>6 Common cards>3 Uncommon cards>2 Rare, Super Rare, or Legendary cards – Both non-foil>1 Foil Card (from Common to Enchanted)>1 Art/Marketing CardThe problem I'm seeing with Lorcana's packs are that Rare, Super Rare, or Legendary cards are jumbled into two slots (three if the holo slot is counted) and there's no standardized pull rate for boxes.
>>152795549Oh, sorry, I was referring specifically to the /acg/ threads where what little Lorcana discussion we have is relegated, since we can't seem to maintain a standalone thread. But in the greater sense of /tg/ as a whole, you are very correct.
>>152795803Oh yeah, if it's not borderline anime child porn they don't give a shit.
>>152790125Most people don't, the game is on life support now and Konami's scrambling to salvage whatever's left. More extreme banlists, tripling down on nostalgia support, full art cards, new formats. Konami is desperate to court players back into the game.>Hell someone recently came up with a fucking turn 0 win.Hoo boy, just wait until you see Duel Links and its meta. It's been FTK hell for the past year or so now.
>>152795997Explains why they're mostly fine with it when the furry diaper porn game gets brought up.
>>152795606I have mixed feelings on fixed pull rates. While it is nice to basically never get a "bad" box, I also enjoy the chase and having no guaranteed rarity makes the good pulls feel more special.
>>152795606I bet if Lorcana sold/printed in a volume anywhere near what Pokémon does, you'd probably see similar prices.
>>152796364Pokémon's pull rates are fixed in some sense. A booster box is guaranteed to give you 4-6 Double Rares but the pool of Double Rares is small (Perfect Order has 9 Double Rares, for example), 3 Illustrator Rares (Perfect Order has 11), 1-2 Ultra Rares (Perfect Order has 18), 0-1 Secret Illustrator Rares (Perfect Order has 6), and 0-1 Hyper Rares per box (Perfect Order only has 1). As far as a sealed booster case (which contains 6 boxes) is concerned you're likely to find 2-3 Secret Illustrator Rares (for Mega Evolutions sets and late SV sets, early SV sets had at least 6 in case) and even Hyper Rares aren't guaranteed AFAIK.I think what would help Lorcana out as far as competitive accessibility is concerned is releasing products similar to Trainer's Toolkits (they're basically box containing a block consisting of at 2 copies of each meta Item, Tool, Supporter, Stadium, and Special Energy card and one or 2 copies of a meta Ultra Rare Pokémon card) and the previously-mentioned League Battle Decks.
>>152797351They routinely have 2000 and 4000 person tournaments that sell out instantly, and at least locally the lorcana leagues get more people than pokemon. So I'm not sure how much "accessible" it needs to be.
I wish this game had an app or something. I'd buy the cards but i dont think there's any place near me that plays it
>>152796013>full art cardsDon't forget that those full art cards come in three different rarities, one of which is serialized.>>152797514>They routinely have 2000 and 4000 person tournaments that sell out instantly.The same is true for Pokémon, Seattle Regionals had 2231 players in their Masters division while the European International Championship had 4011 players.>>152797604There used to be an unofficial one but they got DMCA'd a while back.
>>152797626There's several options for playing online now. All still unofficial but they work.
>>152768468i wish i cared about TGC still, because id love to get into this but i just dont have the patience. the art is always great and the game seems kinda fun and very easy to learn and teach.
>Several cool looking cards>None are very goodMy duck wife deserves better.
>>152798457She was *kind of* scary back when Scrooge's Lucky Dime came out, but yeah, pretty much nerfed since.
>>152769976>>152770583>>152770603>>152770779May I ask for your full deck list good sir?
>>152798875To be quite honest with you, I haven't built it yet. It's been a really heavy overtime work week. But, tomorrow's Friday, maybe I'll have some more time to build it, then. In the meantime if anyone wants to make suggestions, they're welcome. I do have a few other cards I intend to add, just have to figure out how to fill in the rest. Naturally, floodborn Tod needs a shift target, so let's start with that.
>>152798989Since we have Tod, Vixy seems like an obvious add.
>>152768468It seems like kind of thing that would only appeal to those terrifying people who still go to Disneyland by themselves after age 30.
>>152799010Playing heavily into the Support theme, Nick seems like another good one-drop... and wow, that's a lot of foxes so far. Maybe I should try to fit Robin or Marian in here somehow.
>>152799021That would be me, if I had the money for it. I was there once, as a toddler, so I can't remember a fucking thing about it.
>>152799050Education or Elimination seems like a good song to ready Tod with, because why quest for 2 when you can quest cumulatively for 5? ...or 9!
>>152799095I'm toying with the idea of putting in Game Preserve, just because there will be a few evasive characters to help keep it alive.
>>152799119...and Clarabelle has boosts for days.That's about as far as I've gotten for the main theme of the deck so far. It would be nice to get some more ramp or card draw options in there, and having more songs or items that can trigger Tod wouldn't hurt, either.
>>152799095It might be wise to consider adding a few 4 cost characters to sing this unless you plan to pay the full ink cost, since you don't have many above 3, except Tod, who you wouldn't use for obvious reasons.
>>152799386>>152799155Oh, I didn't notice Clarabelle. She'd work, but but more might not be a bad idea.
Is Jack Sparrow or my girl Tigerlily in this?
>>152790207>last time I checked they tend to run into the triple-digitsFucking seriously? I thought the whole point of alt arts was to have the game pieces be commons while giving collectors something to chase after.
>>152800163The trouble is, sometimes a card becomes so useful that the demand for it becomes so high that even the more common version of it explodes in price. In the case of Dumbo, as mentioned earlier, the regular version goes for about $45 market price, while pic related, the Enchanted version, can list anywhere from $235 to $455. Thankfully, there's usually not many that retain such a high value for long.
>>152800375Dumbo is also kind of unique in that 1. Rotation just happened so the card pool shrank and 2. Fabled was massively under-printed so the few good legendary cards were scarce.
>>152801008For sure, the rotation was a big factor, and I wonder if we'll see a similar standout in the next rotation. I honestly wish they had chosen to drop 1 set with every new set instead of doing a huge rotation once per year, but maybe others will disagree.
I have an idea for a card.>Bear.>A grizzly bear.>Holy shit run away.
>>152801151I mean... we have Kenai.
>>152789980I'm in a bubble here of course, but at my local shop I don't think they even sell Digimon, and One Piece I've never seen actually played. But the Star Wards card game is huge and will be a full house when there's a tournament on.Pokemon is still the actual ruling TCG here. Most of the local Lorcana players in fact are actually just the parents of the young kids playing Pokemon who need something to play themselves whilst waiting for them to be done, because Lorcana is super easy to pick up and the Disney characters are appealing.
>>152801080Dropping one set with every new set leaves no chance for any kind of meta to develop since you're completely changing the game every 3 months. Maybe that's what you want but historically it's bad for competitive scenes which is why most games use this kind of "block" system.
>>152801319Not that anon, but I don't find that strange at all. Everyone likes to pretend that what goes on at their LCS is the norm, but every community is different. Lorcana seems to be hit or miss depending on the area, it's different all over.
>>152801336All right, I guess I can see that, but I actually kind of hate the meta, so that doesn't really sound like a bad thing to me. If it was constantly being shaken up, then it would be the innovators that win, not just the wealthy followers.
>>152801345For sure. For example here Lorcana is big and we have like 7 stores each getting a dozen people for their league each week, while almost every store has dropped Star Wars completely because no one showed up. Hell fucking Gundam gets more players around me than Star Wars.
>>152801360Innovators are still absolutely the ones winning at the high levels. Copying a meta deck might be fine for locals but at the high level it's just going to be average.
>>152799545There's been no live action characters yet, but if they do get included, Jack will be inevitable.I'll be shocked if Tigerlily ever makes it in, as Disney seem determined keep the Red Man and his tribe in the Disney vault There's been a ton of Peter Pan cards including the lost boys and random named members of Hook's crew, but the tribe has never been referenced once. Even the Never Land card itself is of the Mermaid Lagoon and looks out more towards the ocean so you can't ever even see a teepee.
>art is of Sis>call the character Little Sister, who is actually the female mouse who lives at the churchI hope somebody was fired for this blunder
>>152801478I agree that showing the 'Injuns' is unlikely, but if any of them ever make it in, it'll be Tigerlilly and Tigerlilly only.
Meanwhile, Pocahontas is perfectly fine.
>>152801782Because she's not an outdated obviously offensive stereotype.
>>152801786I seem to recall some offense taken to her anyway, and some would call her outdated as well. Not as much as TigerLilly, naturally, but there's always *some* degree of controversy.
>>152801928All offense regarding Pocahontas is because her story is a retelling of history which gets a lot of the details completely wrong. Nobody cares if you adjust the ending of a fairytale or misrepresent some Greek mythological figures, but when you're dealing with historic figures with who are the heroes and villains there's a little more scrutiny.There's a reason why she's the one Disney princess who breaks up with her man in the straight to video sequel.
>>152801953All correct, but my point stands anyway. If people find both TigerLilly and Pocahontas offensive why does one get to be in the game, but the other doesn't? It all comes down to where Disney or Ravensburger draw the line, I guess.
>>152802004So you literally didn't read any of the posts at all.
>>152768468When I saw an entire convention hall filled with nothing but a line of incels waiting for 8 hours to get a box, I decided for myself I'm not retarded enough to play that and will never be.Eventually I still ended up playing it and it's the pacifist garbage I hate most about card games these days.
I got a couple of decks. I have set up with only Set 9 - 11 since rotation is coming back. Here is one.
>>152802335And Deck 2
>>152802383Oops forgot to edit this. Judy was removed from the deck. Must have been from the original building.
>>152802145>pacifist garbageBitch, I can blast Snow White to death with a cannon. What's pacifist about that?
>>152802335Why not the big Darkwing Duck? Also Minnie is meh and your 2 drop slot is full enough.
>>152802685>Why not the big Darkwing Duck?Meh, couldn't really think to use them, plus probably expensive at the moment.>Also Minnie is meh and your 2 drop slot is full enough.In case I can't get Darkwing or Aurora out, I can at least power up the Alice with 3 and 6.
>>152803050Steel Minnie, not Emerald Minnie.
>>152803199Friends told me to add it just in case. I was thinking about removing it but they kept telling me to keep it.
>>152802409You've got to be careful when you leave more than one rabbit in one place. They probably just multiplied on you.
>>152801308I mean the bear from Balto/Fox and the Hound.
>>152804597I barely remember Balto... were the bears from each similar?Anyhow, I just realized, we're also going to get the bears from Brave soon, too.
>>152803336Well, you gotta keep Minnie, she's too sexy to get rid of.On second thought, unhand my wife.
>>152805858She's my wife.
>>152807142>glares at you murderously>you glare backSo... spitroast?
>>152802383I dig it. I see you've mixed Support with a lot of Ward. I'm tempted to mix mine with more Evasive. I do like the idea of putting Little John in there, though. He's a powerhouse just by himself.
>Taipei Challenge is starting now>Round 1 on stream is Dogs losingGood. Fuck dogs.
>>152808329>Good. Fuck dogs.I... guess I could go find some white women?
>>152808337No need.
>>152808376>101 Penetrations
>>152799386Good call, and I think I found a 4 drop that works well with the theme, but will probably be more useful boosting Tod, Mulan, and Alice with her own ability.
>>152781695Based on Piglet they are probably going to make a Vanilla theme with cards caring about characters without abilities.>>152781079
>>152808822What makes you say that? Previous Quests haven't included themed player decks, just ones built from recent sets. Unless, of course, they're trying to break from that mould, then anything's possible.
I've been unable to get into it because it always comes across as soullessLike, a good card game has to be evocative. Best case scenario, each card has to properly capture the essence of its flavor in the mechanics; characters and ideas had to be represented not just in the art, but mechanically as well. This is what provided a major factor in achieving success for games like Star Wars Unlimited and the Digimon TCG. Failing that, just playing the game had to be able to sell the idea of what you were doing; if you were wizards controlling land or martial warriors channeling big energy attacks n' shit, then the game had to represent that, which games like Sorcery and DBS: Fusion World did. Like in the latter, I can accept a character just being reduced down to generic "On Play: Draw 1 Card" when the mechanics of the game still have shit like "agh you've hit me enough that I must pull out my final form" or "it's time for the last attack, everyone give me your energy" represented real well.And then you look over at Lorcana, and there's rarely anything about the properly being properly represented in the card. At best, it's in the shallowest and most direct route possible, or instead it relies on what the character has been turned into, rather than what they are in the source material. Despite this, it's always a major seller at LCS/LGSes, even though the game nights for it are usually rather sparse. While I imagine the actual mechanics must still be fun, it absolutely feels like Disney was just slapped on to appeal to casuals and speculators and buy their way to prominence
>>152808893>success for games like Star Wars UnlimitedThat game is actually 100% dead everywhere.
>>152808893>it absolutely feels like Disney was just slapped on to appeal to casualsTo me, your whole point just sounds like confirmation bias against Disney. Sure, some characters are just an unexplained assortment of game mechanics, but there are still plenty that fit the theme perfectly.
>>152808934Then it shall become more powerful than you can ever imagine.
>>152809527It still won't beat Pokémon or MTG.
>>152809614maybe in our western sphere, in japan and asia they have like top ten tcg's and actually play it rather than just collecting and selling
>>152809123>To me, your whole point just sounds like confirmation bias against DisneyIt huts me that you can't engage with my worlds more wholeheartedly, and with this we will never be friends.
>>152809639>...and actually play it rather than just collecting and sellingAnd people still play Pokémon to such a level where their big tournaments bring in thousands of players and where their World Championships actually had to put a player cap into effect last year?
>>152809657>It huts me that you can't engage with my worlds more wholeheartedlyI guess the feeling is mutual, then. My world is Lorcana and I think it sucks that you can treat it so dismissively. I accept your denial of friendship and propose to escalate our relationship status to that of nemesis. I would cordially wish you good day, but that would hardly be appropriate given my newly minted adversarial stance. Harsh tidings and ill portents to you, then.Scallywag.
>>152798875All right, I think I've got my deck list sorted. Deck name: Fox Around And Find OutI decided to drop Vixy and Game Preserve because I found more effective substitutes. The large majority of my characters are heroes, so Anna and Prince Philip make sense to me, and Little John can take Tod's place as a multi-quester in a pinch. Belle will help me ramp and Donald will increase my card draw, while either of them can sing for me. B.E.N. can also sing, and has Support, but being a robot, he can also activate Baymax's Healthcare Chip for extra healing. Alice Saavy Sailor can heap extra lore gain on to Tod or Little John. And, add in Snow Fort, and my characters could potentially have some combinination of Ward, Resistance, Evasive, Support, and boosted power and lore gain. Seems like a pretty solid start, but feel free to suggest substitutions if you like.
>>152809882Health Chip is garbage
>>152809882>ScallywagBro, calm down! You didn't have to do him like that!
>>152811313It's only there to provide a cheap activation for Tod. If you've got a better low cost item that activates for free to choose a character, feel free to suggest it. It's certainly not there on its own merit.
My cute wife needs a new card.
>>152812389How was the movie, anyway? Raya and Black Cauldron are just about the only movies in Lorcana I haven't seen, so I find myself tempted to watch them.
>>152812510It's not bad. It has a cool world and a neat plot, but it got forgotten because it released during covid. Also pretty much every character in the movie is good except for Raya, which hurts it a bit.
>>152812550>because it released during covidHonestly, that's exactly why I didn't see it. Not that I couldn't have streamed it, of course, there was just a lot on my mind at the time. Also, it's kind of funny, I got the same impression just from the cards 'Wow, most of these characters seem interesting... except for Raya."
>>152812645I also just miss when she ruled the world.
>>152813486That *was* an amazing card at the time, yes. All feared the big Sisu.
>>152813486>>152813536Oh, I remember. I played a Sisu and Musketeer Minnie deck. I had a bunch of other cards that raised or lowered power so I could take out any target in the mid range as well.
>>152814521This card was never good.
>>152815822Sure, it was only 'ok', but I thought it was a fun idea, and I liked the art on both versions.
>>152816357World's Greatest Criminal Mind was better, but in both cases, it was always funny when playing against someone unfamiliar with either, and I'd boost one of their character's power and they'd look at me, confused.
>>152801786Nah, even people in the 90s were criticizing Pocahontas for perpetuating the "noble savage" stereotype.
>>152771146>>152771809So is it like a 101 Dalmatians deck or just a general dog deck?
>>152818342There's no 101 Dalmatians in it, the Lady and the Tramp cards are the big enablers.
>>152818420Dammit. Was hoping some madlad found a way to make the 99 pups gimmick viable.
>>152820077I've made Puppy decks that are perfectly playable, though they obviously wouldn't be winning any tournaments.
>>152808376What set is this art from?
>>152820358Better question: Does the condom give Ward, Resistance, or a Willpower bonus?
>>152820638I think it prevents Goofy from being born.
>>152821080NOTHING CAN IMPEDE THE BIRTH OF THE PROPHET....A-hyuk.
>>152801319>but at my local shop I don't think they even sell Digimon, and One Piece I've never seen actually playedDoesn't help those games are being scalped to hell and back, tbf.
>>152812510Thoroughly mediocre.
>>152822086No one is scalping Digimon.
