>>94699821I want a full Goblimon archetype deck similar to what Numemon had.Goblimon, SnowGoblimon, Shamamon, Ogremon, Hyogamon, Fugamon, Ogremon X-Antibody...Also obligatory "Give me a good Phantomon card in Violet's Ghost deck"
>>94699941Kind of a shame that the Titamon deck that was almost good in BT6 never really got a followup.
>>94699941How would you even connect them all?
>>94700231Demon type. Just gotta rule it on some level 5s and 6s.
>>94700231A couple ways, the first is like >>94700280 said with Demons, as all Goblis and Ogres are Demon with the exception of BT11 Hyogamon (only Ice-Snow), and only the 2 Grumblemon and 3 K/Ginkakumon are also Demons but they aren't too influential.The second is to pull a Targetmon and put "Name: Also treated as having [Goblimon/Ogremon]" on the Shamas/Fugas.
egge
>>94700606Weird egg effect. I thought the accel deck was going to focus on options as well as jogress.
>>94700606This seems pretty good for an egg in a jogress deck.
>>94700606Digipapus...i feel the old chaosmon arent going to be playable in this deck...It would be a good deck if the realese a new darkdramon or make a rule for the one in BT16 to be part of the accelThey should make the deck a gracenovamon 2.0
>>94700606How to build a good Chaosmon deck?
Sistermon Blanc Awakened when?
>>94700827dark masters base, then I dunno. I made mine black purple, using the bt15 Piedmons and Machinedramons, then the new black/purple Machinedramons because they can evo off either searcher. Mother egg to enable white options, then the option that lets you DNA with 1 on board and one in hand. Some purple mons that draw and trash to find Chaosmon and trash the 6s it needs.Keep in mind the self deletion of Dark Masters so you don't screw yourself with the colours (I did once). If you already have some purple 6s, then play a purple dark masters, as he's gonna commit sudoku and play the black one, so next turn you're ready for dna.
>>94700606Damn that's a good egg. Shame it's not black or yellow cause promo Armadillomon is perfect for the deck otherwise.
>>94700606This made me think about SR eggs with how good the effect looks in a vacuum.
Nu-Chaosmon looks pretty bad so far. The rookies and champions are both dull and I dont think that the ultimates and megas can save it.
>>94701646They're dull, but they're also clearly supposed to be dull. The Singularity Option pretty much tells us that the meat of the deck is going to be coming out of the On Play effects of the higher level Digimon. I will say that both lines' inherits being redundant on different Chaosmons (Barrier on BT16 and Piercing on Ultimate if you have 4 Megas to fuse) is pretty lame but since you lose access to those inherits after your first Chaosmon Partitions it at least means you won't miss them.The real weak point of what we've seen of the deck is the pretty common weakness of new decks, that only two sets of 3s and 4s sucks.
While you control a level 4 with Pinamon in its stack and your opponent is obviously holding an Ace: Play this with Singularity for an effective cost of 4, turn off their Ace's When Digivolving and shrink it, trigger Pinamon to evolve your level 4 into...
>>94701897...pic related, suspend their would-be Ace, buff itself, and swing into it. As long as their Ace is less than 12k or exactly 12k and you have a Barrier inherit, you delete it. Your opponent is probably better off just letting their stack die.
>>94701897damn I wish this guy was a cyborg so I could cram it into machinedramon
>>94701983You have no idea how many times I read this as "I wish I was a cyborg so I could cram it into machinedramon".
The nu-chaosmon stuff looks like peak 'We'll fix it later with a third line'. These ultimates aren't giving me much hope.
>>946982874-4-4-3.EX8 fixed so many problems with the deck.
>>94702367Eh, I think they’re alright. Chaos has access to the black/yellow memory boost and promo Armadillomon which can help. A Accel trait Kudamon and D-Brigade line is practically guaranteed.
>>94701897Wish this evolved for 3 from leomon too
>>94703266This and hybrid Liollmon would have been great for Leomon deck if only they had bothered to blackbox them.
>>94704645I'm surprised that bt16 paildramon is 4th. Ukko being 1st makes sense since that fucker can go in just about anything
>>94702438>EX8 fixed so many problems with the deck.For insectiods or NSP?4 mega seems like a ton since youre fighting for space between promo and metallife and rhino since all 3 of them are very good.
>Order my second Special Limited Set>Didn't register for Rando TCG website, and they never sent an email w/ tracking, so sitting blind>Arrives several days later, courier leaves it on the doorstep instead of the mailbox, in the rain and melting snow; only noticed it when taking out the garbage in the evening, was probably there all day.>Cardboard box it was delivered in is soft, and damp, but the actual card box itself is dry, if cold.>Cards are entirely fine>MagnaKid - Imperialdramon - Ruin ModeProbably my favourite product in a long time - guaranteed cards, with AAs being a special bonus, but I can't help but imagine the scenario where stores sold individual loose packs, and imagine the pain of not getting a full playset>probably won't even run a full playset of scrambles, just like having 4-ofs for future proofing.
>>94705728This LM set has just been nice. Everyone I know that's managed to buy one at a fair price has been pretty happy with them. I got Magnakid, Quantamon, and Ruin in mine. Was pretty happy
>>94705901I think I'd be happy with pretty much any alternate arts in the set; I managed to get lucky with Blanc, DeathX, and Ruin Mode, but I would have loved GranKuwagamon, and Chaosdramon X even though they're super cheap.
>>94705728Congratulations on dodging a bullet.
>>94705923>>94705901>>94705728>ruin mode>ruin mode>ruin mode and a deathX>I'd be fine with anything, hahahaI pulled Chaosdramon and Kuwagamon. If not for Kuwagamon I'd be rather disappointed, Chaosdramon looks so boring. So does Imperialdramon, so good thing I didn't pull that. But the scrambles and Aces are amazing, I especially like the Gabu/Agubonds
>>94707274Machinedramon, and Kuwagamon are some of my favourite 'mons, so things adjacent to them are nice. I already have a playset of GranKuwa Ace, and Chaosdramon X but the textured foils in the digimon tcg are amazing.
>>94707290I like Machinedramons, Chaosdramons though... some of them look good, but generally I don't really like 'em.>textured foils in the digimon tcg are amazing.Yes, also when they started doing the improved foiling on normal rares, damn that's nice. Stuff like Sakuyamon BT17 or Seraphimon Ace are so nice.But the recent rare foils on some cards from SP2.0 were pretty bad, my Agunimon and Lobomon look like they have black armor essentially. Other rares luckily looked good though.
>>94705728Anything is better than chaos x...
Jesus fucking christ
>>94707514No memory fuckery for the Seekers variant
>>94707514Fortitude is a neat way to trigger the original Takemikazuchi's Digivolve-from-trash if it happens during your turn.>>94707517>No memory fuckery for the Seekers variantYou can certainly still try it, you just have to run Climbmon instead of any other Pulsemon level 4 and it won't be searchable off of SEEKERS Loogamon.
>>94707348damn those sistermons look great
I feel like they've revealed nothing but seekers, accel and jesmon support
>>94707611they also revealed crabmon!
>>94707611This set really doesnt look good.
>>94707611They've shown us all of Examon except for Dracomon and maybe an egg, they've shown us HeavyMetaldramon, they've shown us 3 of likely 8 R/P Imperialdramon cards (potentially 11 if they include an egg, a Tamer, and a new Virus counterpart to Paladin Mode, but the latter is a real stretch), they've shown us 4/10-ish likely Chronicle cards, and they've showed us the 3s and 4s for Violet's deck.
I'm slowly getting better at this game, but I STILL have no idea how to deal with Hybrids
>>94707939Take the menoa and eos-pill
>>94707991Already did, it's one of my favorite decks alongside Diaboromon. Nature Spirits and Ryugumon are fun too but my wins with those are a mixed bag
>>94707991She really is a villainess need to be fixed.
>>94707991>alongside DiaboromonSensei why supremacist decks only exist to be a pain in the ass?
>>94707939Depending on the deck you are using, you can't. It feels more like a problem in game mechanics than anything else. When you play against hybrids, checking their security helps them a lot every time you hit a tamer in security, which is pretty common
>>94708082Feels like Hybrid should be hit hard by the next banlist. It's either getting killed in two-three turns, or spending 30 goddamn minutes trying to stop the combo only for them to somehow still get all the pieces needed to attempt the combo all over again next turn, and only winning because they have no physical way to continue comboing.
>>94708155There's no reasonable way to hit them because they duplicated all their effects on the SRs and tamers. We'll be stuck with them until power creep wipes them out, and then they'll do another frontier set that nobody asked for and they'll all be back and worse than ever
>>94708183I'd say hitting the Agnimon and Wolfmon who let you evolve into the Ancients for free is a good start
>>94708155lol no. The banlist is based mostly on results in JP and it's radically different than elsewhere due to best of 1 vs best of 3. I don't think the game devs truly understand or care about just how bad certain interactions are. I.E. Seccon isn't a thing in JP as much as it is elsewhere because it is amazing at going to time when you play more than one game
>>94707611Good. Sistermon is based and I need more.
Here it is
>>94708746epic bird
>>94708746De-digivolve feels too common these days.
>>94708756eh it's in both Chaosmon and Leomon already so I don't think it's too bad. Plus everything and its mother is immune to deletion so it is all black has
>>94708746>>94708749Giving them both the EoT DNA effect feels a little redundant. Hopefully the inevitable Darkdramon and Kentarosmon don't also have that effect.Also, simultaneously impressed and disappointed that they're Uncommons. On the plus side, they're pretty strong for Uncommon megas. On the down side, that Valdurmon art with the planet in the background would have looked good in SR foil.
>>94708865If you've played much of the field decks, only having it one Digimon and nowhere in the inherits is terrible
>>94708866Also Bancho Bancho can become BT16 Chaos and Valdur Valdur can become UltimateChaos (both can also form Valdur Arm) so in a pinch playing both can work
Sorting through my bulk looking for two cards that aren't where they should be and considering just binning everything from before BT14 (I only bought boxes until EX2, and then only singles for the decks I did/do play). Already filtered out the vanillas to toss but some of these old effects are so bad they may as well be.How do you guys decide which cards to let go of?
>>94709412I don'tthe collection just growsanything that involves me getting rid of stuff is just getting rid of duplicates to reduce the collection, I don't need 12 copies of some trash vanilla, 4 copies is plenty.
>>94708749Valdurmon is sadly a bit underwhelming, doesn't do a ton when spit out by partition. Though meeting both colors for UltimateChaosmon is nice.
>>94709412update the two staple cards were in fact with my other staples. No idea why I thought they weren't At least I've sorted my bulk and scrapped a few hundred cards
>>94709573Bancho is better but Valdur can still be useful just for stalling by suspending everything. I hope the deck keeps getting support and isn’t immediately forgotten. We need Accel trait Kudamon and D-Brigade lines now.
>>94709412I only keep cards in archetypes that I have decks for and generic good cards that work in a lot of decks. I left the rest of my bulk at the LGS
https://x.com/digimon_tcg/status/1874425344171647299Another year of Liberator?
>>94710226Was just about to post this. It's certainly something I've not seen on the Twitter account before.
>>94710230Is it a good card effecvt?
>>94710226Maybe? It seems more like we're at the halfway point or further with how the pacing has been similar to Seekers.>>94710274It's an AA for Digimon Liberator.
>>94710274It's just the white Digimon Liberator promo
>>94710030Valdur is good as a stepping stone into Valdur Arm, but I just wish he did something stronger on partition.
>VALDUR arm>VARODURUmon
>>94710836Sleip arm when?
>>94710836I'm not a stickler for moon names, but I will never stop calling them "Valdurmon", "Alraumon", and "Chrysalimon", because localizing loanwords phonetically is fucking retarded.
>>94710836I always thought it was supposed to be Barad-duramon.
>>94710991It really should be Baldurmon
It's so funny that Ordinemon was the first level 7 DNA in the game and it hasn't gotten a single card since
>>94708749What an amazing way to butcher a name
>>94711039Ceresmon was the first relevant green deck and hasn't had a card since BT3.
>>94710969Goburimon will forever stick with me, because of the Digimon ps1 games.
>>94708749Weird Crowmon or Varodurumon didnt get the effect of "[All Turns] [Once Per Turn] When this Digimon deletes your opponent's Digimon in battle, trash their top security card."We are getting two more lines the Darkdramon and the Sleipmon on BT20 or it would be in other one?
>>94711683I'm just glad we're finally free of "Kerpymon".
>>94711683HIGH TENSION JAPANESE GOBURI, I AM eto... JAPANESE GOBURI
>>947102262025 is a year of the snake so I get why, like, Coatlmon and Mervamon are there, and the ShootingStarmons are like fireworks so they're okay. But what about, like, AncientVolcamon and Dynasmon? Are we spoiling future appearances for Close and Cool Boy's decks or something?
>>94711891Ancient Volcanomon is apparently referencing some superstition about dreaming of Mt. Fuji on new years.
>>94711891Probably the Mt. Fuji and eggplant dream thing that's supposed to bring good fortune in Japan
>>94711891Happy New Year'sAncientVolcanomonIt's snowing on Mt. Fuji
Here's our second 5 cost tamer. Im excited to try this new variant out.
>>94713714Neat. Seems kind of crappy for a 5 cost since it doesn't work with any of the older digimon that go with them.
>>94713714Why does this cost 5 lmao
>>94713714>5 costThe new level 6s better be amazing to justify this cost.
>>94713813dual colour memory setter
>>94713755>>94713813If you actually get multiple on the field it could get really strong, because they can all trigger off of one attack, immediately jumping you from Rookie to Mega. And since your level 5s both play a Rookie to your breeding area, you're all set up to do it again every turn.
>Digimon TTRPG>NPC Nanimon appears>GM gives him the fucking StrongBad voiceGreat, now I can't see that ugly ball of shit without hearing StrongBad. At least nobody ever uses him.
>>94713873That would be good, but playing multiple 5-cost tamers is not something you would want to do. That being said, multiple bt16 Ken and Davises is fucking hilarious so I'm all for doing that as a janky deck
>>94714268Raptordramon has the "if you have 1 or less tamers you may play a Kota" effect so unlike Davis and Ken there's an early game way to play it for free. I don't think it provides as much value as Mirei, Marcus or Takuya & Koji (who all can also be played for free consistently) but I guess the alternative would be Willis & Shu-Chong style, reduce by 2 but gain no memory.
>>94714182There's a ttrpg?
>>94714182Is something wrong with that? I mean if Nanimon were to have a HomestarRunner voice Bubs might work better.>>94714943Tabletop RPG. You know like Dungeons and Dragons.
>>94714943Pretty sure it's either a homebrew that anon is in or a fanmade one that you can find online
>>94714268>That would be good, but playing multiple 5-cost tamers is not something you would want to do.I guess I wasn't clear enough. The reason they cost 5 is because they have a really strong effect that scales well in multiples, so the 5 cost is there to make achieving that more difficult.
>>94714953I'm a retard I read that as what's a TTRPG.
>>94713714>>94713873>immediately jumping you from Rookie to MegaOh my shit! I have faith but still sad cuz' no x-antibody trait. https://youtu.be/DWM4b63qua4?t=8
>>94714953>>94715118Silly Billy>>94714999Figured it was a fanmade thing, if that anon could post a link i'd appreciate it.
>>94715119>>immediately jumping you from Rookie to MegaOnly after paying 15 mem for setting them up.How do they work tho? You attack with a mon, then suspend them all, their effects all wait to resolve and that's what's jumping you multiple levels, yes? The timing for suspending seems to be the same as [when attacking]?
>>94715294The last Ouryuken gained a shitton of memory at the end of its turn so maybe they'll do that again. But yes timing is the same as When Attacking. Suspend one tamer each time you Digivolve, activate any When Digivolving effects and continue
What deck do you think this based gentleman is playing?
>>94715527Galacticmon
>>94715555it was DigiPolice
>>94715179This looks good but I bet it'll suck in practice. Even if you're running a "pure" Chronicle deck, you're going to need some of the old Dorumons or Rydamons that aren't Chronicle, which the Main effect misses and the Delay effect doesn't work with. It'll also whiff on any Tamers that aren't Chronicle or your X-Anti Options. And that Delay effect actually throws off your level 5s' tempo if you use it during your opponent's turn.Getting to digivolve from trash is pretty useful when you only have 8 level 4s with the Chronicle trait though, so it might be worth playing regardless.>>94715294Raptordramon lets you play the first two for free.>>94715363It doesn't let you digivolve into Oryuken, he's a level 7.
>>94715783yes, but it's presumably a DNA deck and the point of the tamer is to end your turn with evolving into the new Ouryuken via the effects of your level 6's
>>94713714Lot of discussion about this tamer being able to Evo something in raising because of the "on the field" wording, which is new and hasn't been written before.The option referencing breeding also supports this. We'll have to see what the official statement is
I HATE VELGRMON I HATE VELGRMON I HATE VELGRMON
Thoughts on MedievalGallantmon? I remember people hyping it up a lot when it was revealed, but it doesn't seem to have made that much of an impact on the JP meta. Although the tri-colored gallant X is just amazingly good.
>>94717309>Thoughts on MedievalGallantmon? I remember people hyping it up a lot when it was revealed,Yea, why wouldn't it be?>Huankun Evo and plays lunamon>MedGallant taps Luna, nukes huankun Or>Play worm/vee off daiken>Get the search but lose a body
I've been out of the game for a year and the meta seems really shit. Am I missing something? It's all purple decks, imperialdramon to counter the purple, and a splash of magnamon x. Everything they're printing is the same stack deck weve had since 2022 or some weird DNA deck.I was looking at the red decks they've printed in the last year and it's just DNA, red hybrid AGAIN, and stacks.
>>94717309>Thoughts on MedievalGallantmon?It is a very good card but deck space is so tight in many decks that there is no room for it.
3 days until an announcement from Bandai for Digimon. Any hopes or expectations?
>>94719053Disappointment that looks nice at first.
>>94719053Probably some dumbass pop-up shop with adventure themed merch like it always is
I'm bored of this set already, I want to see the v-pet shit in the next EX.
>>94719342the next ex set is after bt21 i think? So we have protagslop and the adventure starters first
>>94719078I don't like that you're probably right.
>>94719457God damn it.
Increase your hand and trash nothing!
>>94719837Seems pretty standard.
>>94719888Just like Ryutaro's Agumon it searches for archetype and tamer rather than archetype and Liberator. Sucks to be worse just for being dual colour?
>>94719837Fucking finally.
>>94719927They're being careful incase anyone discovers the Guilmon synergy(lmao)
>>94720305All I see is some overlap with Megidramon.
>>94720329I'm mostly joking, assuming your entire maindeck becomes red/purple and you throw out shit like Orochimon, there isn't much in the Guilmon line you'd wanna play.>None of the Guilmons do anything unless you spec heavily into the line>EX3 Growlmon is almost playable but costs 3 unless you throw it over a Guilmon>X antibody line is good but again needs you to commit to it super hardWargrowl Ace and Megidra Ace are playable though. A mixed deck would be really cool but the current card pool doesn't really facilitate it at the moment, you need to commit to hard to either side to make it feel worthwhile but maybe someone can crack the code.
>>94719888It should have made you trash a card in your hand if you added any, like BT15 DemiDevimon (which was Myotismon support) or EX5 Gabumon X. That way even in the best/worst scenario where you add 2 cards, your hand size breaks even in the end.
>>94720422WarGrowl Ace isn't a Dark Dragon so now you're paying a penalty to digivolve him into HeavyMetaldramon (unless you Blast again, in which case you're wagering a massive 7 memory), and Megidra Ace is significantly less appealing if you aren't running any Guilmons which you probably won't be.
>>94720490>WarGrowl Ace isn't a Dark DragonOh right, I forgot it's a Cyborg, no double typing.I'd argue they're still kind of playable just for being Red things with a good on-play to cheat out with Heavymetal Ace but it's a pipedream to try and mix these decks despite the possible synergy.
>The west finally gets multi colored memory boosts for jogress decks>Following jogress decks are all multi color anywayWhat was the fucking point?
>>94720541Well seekers don't share a colour at least
>>94720589Fair.
>>94720512The Ace should have been Loudmon, change my mind.
>>94720655Retaliation blocker is nice to go with the ace
>>94719837>>94720655>inherit 2K Unga bungaImpmon was a mistake.
>>94720655DemiDevi is Evil-type. Sorta splashable.
>>94720897Previous Punkmon also has that.The only demidevi that had some worth on this deck was picrel and he's kinda been superceded by the new Impmon as the Yuukisearcher. Not to mention that he's fucking impossible to find due to him being ancient at this point.
>>94719837>>94720655Why do they hate this deck so fucking much
>>94721378'Cuz people needs good looking waifus that are not too expensive-desu. Even if the digibro have a shit mechanic.
>>94721424Then how come Violet AA price rocket up?
>>94720655Seems decent? Redundancy on Blocker is nice but this also passes Retaliate.I've been playing Darklizarmon to be a retaliate dude to cheat out but this does that better.God I hope the new Loudmon is good.
Hi everyone who is going to store tournaments over the next few months. Give me your Yaos. I will actually play Aquatic unlike you. Give.
Digipapus...be honest with me the Violet deck is going to use a lot of Purple cards like Anubis, Dark Animal and Levia right...
>>94721970>will a purple deck use good purple cards
Why does the art of this one look so weird?
>>94721173i meánt this Punkmon could be splashable. Maybe NSo or any of the fifteen other purple decks that run DemiDevi would like a Retaliation Blocker.
>>94722190Because it looks like it has tits.
I want a whole set of zero antibody cards. Imagine bulkmon zero, how bara can you get?
>>94721569People are destined to autodestruction.>>94722190I bet that nigga is a high volume with this one while beat the shit out to rockies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkOJ9uNj9EY

>EX8 already out next week in WestHoly fuck I feel like that crept up. At least I'll be able to get my hands on Dino/Justimon. Been very excited for both of those decks.
>>94722968>this hits the field>mirage can't out itMonke CHADS, its our time.
>>94723415hopefully nobody cares about DS because I just want MetalSeadramon
>>94723433oh shit, I forgot about Deep Savers too, as a fish-head.I think this might be the first set I buy boxes for in a bit, as I definitely want a few copies of MedievalGallant as well.
>>94722190This is actually pretty nice, it's a second source of the Sec Attack aura but passing Raid Piercing is probably the second thing they wanted most next to a level 5 that just plays out itself.
I've been thinking about playing Zephaga, but I have no idea of what I'm doing. Any tips?
>>94723293>Yellow base Maste
if I could limit 3 cards they would be protoform, black magnamon and miragegaogamon
>>94723892I would limit bowmon, fuck that stupid dog
>>94723901oh yeahmaybe take Magnamon off the list and add it to itVelgrmon banned
>>94722190Damn this makes the other Loudmon look like unplayable garbage.
>>94722703This.
>>94723978the 7k threshold is so dogshit man.
Yuukibros we never left!You think they'll give us another orochi/nidhogg or some other evil/dark dragon? or is this it?
>>94724254pretty sure it's just going to be the one line.
>>94724254Unlikely. Most if not all of the room left in Purple seems to be reserved for the rest of Violet's stuff and the Wormmon side of RP Imperial. There's room for another line in Red besides the rest of the Veemon side and Oryumon, but that feels like pack filler slots.
>>94724314On closer inspection the extra slots in Red look like they'll only be enough room for a Champion and an Ultimate, so yeah that's probably just filler.
BT20 seems like an odd set with how many different things are in it.
>>94724966Imagine how odd it will be combined with the Tamers and Xros shit from BT19
>>94723293I'm about to give up building this deck, Mastemon is just too much!Going to list my deck online to see if any takers will nab and swap to Sakuyamon because I like her gimmick more.
>>94725610>and swap to Sakuyamon because I like her gimmick more.Don't be tempted brother. It's a trap to lure you in and take your seed. Remain your faith and finish mastemon.
>>94726561Time is a flat fucking circle.
>>947265612k egg is nice
>>94725247It's going to be the schizo pack
BT20 has 5 (FIVE) purple digimon lines
>>94724254Probably nothing new in this set itself, but the second wave does a lot for the deck, it's probably still dogshit in the greater scheme of things but it feels playable now.
>>94727005Is that a record? Ignoring the special combined boosters
>>94726561WOAHDon't need it.
>>94727235That is a neat generic tamer
>>94727235Lucemonfags gonna fucking nut over this.
>>94727398You can put Lucemon under this, but you can't play it. It's play cost 3 or less. It got me the first time too. I can already imagine people putting a cost 4 under this only to realize you can't play it.
>>94727235Y'know, this'd be a solid way to get an extra colour in a hybrid deck - slap one of the level 3's with an inheritable under it, then digivolve it into one of the level 4 hybrids.
How the FUCK do you beat Imperialdramon
>>94727886Leviamon
>>94727902I hate that deck
>>94727886Which deck were you using? Levia and Mirage are pretty solid hard counters to it
>>94727917I was using Galaxy, although I don't use it that much compared to Eosmon/Diaboromon
>>94727923Actual Galaxy or the builds that just use it's engine to make memory then go into the good blue level 6s? Imperial is weak to dedigi from Diaboro though
>>94727928pure galaxy
>>94727934Hope they brick then. Pure Galaxay is a much weaker deck
>>94727907Oh well.
>>94727923Dia is also a decent counter to Imperial. There's not much we can do to help if you're just bad.
Can someone explain what the top decks are and why? Digimonmeta is completely useless right now, I'm seeing a dozen different decks, none of which look very strong. Purple Hybrid looks powerful with its resource and removal loop but everything else looks like a more convoluted version of what D-Brigade was doing last year. I feel like you could roll up and beat any of the decks on Meta with Hunters, so I must be missing something.
>>94727990>There's not much we can do to help if you're just bad.That's the thread in general>>94728021Imperial, purple hybrid, galaxy mirage, 7gdl, red/blue hybrid off the top of my head.Meta is a shit aggregate that doesnt give you enough about the bo1, 2 man locals topping so you probably can beat those people with hunters.
>>94727235Not sure that there's any deck that would rather use this than a relatively generic setter like Black TaiI guess he's supposed to be Sam the Clown and Virus Imperial can technically climb from one level 3 but it doesn't do much
>>94728035Okay, thanks. And is anything upcoming supposed to be good? The new Nene Lumina stuff seems efficient and low to the ground, but IDK.
>>94728169Gallant X
>>94728056Virus Imperial is probably the exact idea, though I'd hate to tuck a Wormmon just to save it for later.It's a good option to have, at the very least.
>>94727990>There's not much we can do to help if you're just badThat's a shit argument
>>94728321It's not an argument at all, anon.
Oh dear.
>>94728766Two colors really hurt this card's usability. We'll have to see if the new level 4s are 2-color or not but as it stands you either already need 2 Digimon or a DNA to play the top half of this card, in which case you should already be doing the combo.
>>94726561This better not be taking Bebydamon's spot as a red egg
>>94729318there's already a red bebydomon :^)
Be honest, has anyone had any luck with DarkKnightmon at their locals in this format? Would love to see a list or just some general advice, I've been grinding the shit out of it on DCGO with mixed results
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcbrWMdGu64Digimon on the bandai card games fest stream
>special message from the english producer>it's just things we already knewBANDAI!
>>94727557But its white.
>>94728766Secret hawkmon support
>>94728766Seems great except, except for getting the colors unless they get their own tame. Main use I currently see is using it to play a level 4 for the cost of the option to then DNA. The delay is potentially really strong. We just need to see what the new virus imperialmon dragon mode can do
Going to my first store tournament tomorrow. Does the decklist need to be AA accurate or can I just use the card numbers?e.g. if I use 1 TK from the RB reprint and 1 from BT1 do I need to have them both seperate in the TCG+ app
>>94731811I didn't know you can register your decklist in the app, it's never come up at locals. I don't think anyone cares unless someone gets caught cheating. Game rules only care about the card number
>>94731820Oh okay I thought the "confirm contents and apply" meant confirm contents (of the deck) and I've seen the JP twitter post decklists with the cards separated by art so thought that was why
>>94731889Nah, it just means that you've read what the tourney/event is. The twitter posts are just people showing their deck and sorted to make it easier to go through. Best of luck, hope you have fun
>>94731889>I've seen the JP twitter post decklists with the cards separated by art so thought that was whyThat and they want to brag by showing off how much money they spent. Id do the same too.
lmao didn't see the card and thought Takato was flipping the bird
>>94732951The battle with Political Correctness changed him.
>>94731820I had to do it for a regional event recently, they swapped over to using the official app apparently because bandai said they have to for big events now.It worked fine, so that might become a bit more of the norm going forward if you play in stuff above locals level.
>>94733144It's a good system for regionals and larger events provided Bandai has the app made in a way that judges/TOs can just instantly pull up anyone's decklist for a deck check.
Please make gigaseadramon a fucking DS.
>>94733595>Please make gigaseadramon a fucking DS.lol, lmao even.
>>94733595they didn't even give Crabmon X aquatic, they aren't going to do SHIT for GigaSeadramon (besides maybe giving it Aquatic)
>>94733595Pretty nice with how commonplace hybrids are right now. One thing I appreciate about Fish deck is there’s a lot of ways to go about building it. Assuming Gigasea is good this will be a much more Seadramon tribal focused version.
>>94733628A significant amount of the Aqua deck doesn't care about the rookies' type. Memory setter Yao not being one of them is a pretty big hurdle though.
>>94733628It’s crazy how schizophrenic they are with fish and what cards call for what traits. Only other deck that has it that bad to my knowledge is Darkknight where they change the conditions for the searchers every single wave of support.
>>94733716or when they made MarinDevimon compatible with Leviamon's (intended) level 3's and 4's but limited Whamon - arguably the reason the archetype exists in the first place - to DS rather than include Aqua/Sea Animal.
>>94726561return of the KING!
Im gonna shove a Giga in my ds deck like it or not.
>>94734429bro digivolved a neckbeard
>>94734482I think it's just a goatee.
Can someone explain the thought process behind bandai putting all of their 7 games under a single stream so each of them can get a single round?Why.
>>94734728No one fucking knows, not even the people at Bandai.
>>94734482idramon did it first
>>94733595Weird they haven't revealed Betamon X yet, but did reveal Crabmon X.Also this makes me realize that there is only one single card with Betamon in name and an inheritable.Despite being one of the original two rookies from the first V-pet, Betamon has gotten shockingly little love in the TCG.
Dear Bandai,Please make GigaSeadramon part whiteSincerely, Half of The Playable MetalSeadramon in The Game
Yoooooo look at that deep saver. Fuck.
>>94735903Bro literally just play your Deep Savers Seadramons in an Aqua deck. MetalSeadramon at least is generically good.
>>94735903It's funny that after all this time, playing a free level 5 is about the limit of how strong you can make a card. We've literally been able to do it since like BT3 with that one guy who played a purple option. I don't know if that limit will ever be broken, honestly. Level 6s and 7s are so strong. Level 5 might be the absolute limit before you start creating dozens of different infinite loops.
NSp, NSo, DS. Which is the most fun? Are any of them fun? Which is the best?
>>94735903Did Yoda write this effect?
>>94736950Yeah it is weird. It only saves a few words from using>If this Digimon has [MetalSeadramon] or [X Antibody] in its Digivolution cards, you may play 1 level 5 or lower Digimon card from this Digimon's digivolution cards without paying the cost.
>>94736950It feels like all the cards they've been showing have had poor wording lately
>>94737031As long as they're not as bad as EX3 we'll be fine
>>94737040This. The wording here is still technically correct, just a little stilted.
>>94735903Considering this game tends to favor aggro topends most of the time I think focusing on Giga over Xiangpeng will be the better path for fish deck for now. That said I don’t think full Seadramon tribal is the best way now cause Marinebull and the Huankuns are just too good to give up.
>>94736950Was Joda a blue player all the time?
Argomon... forgotten...
>Hybrids and Imperialdramon are among the strongest decks right now>BT-21 is going to be a protagonist set>Meaning more support for themI want to get off this wild ride
>>94738446You were in the wrong for liking side characters. You'll take your shitty dinosaur and like it.
>>94738446If it helps the pack art has Magnamon rather than Paildramon lol
>>94738541V-mon and its consequences have been a disaster to the card game
>Bandai Card Games fes>Digimon finals is 7GDL vs Leviahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5PF78hBV5I
>>94738600These commentators don't understand both decks.
>>947386002.3k viewers is huge wtf, imagine we had proper streams.
>think I have a way through Magnamon X>oops here's Gabubond Ace! Haha!FUCK BLUE
>>94738600What happened when he evolved into Leviamon with Lucemon in play? He bottom deck lucemon to play Levia but then triggered rise and put something below the gate and then played another levia????
>>94738600Why do these fan made comics look better than anything Bandai has ever published.
>>94738899Because unlike Bandai, people actually put effort into them, also nice nulber.
>>94738899Made with love and care
>>94738899>>94738922Bandai is too busy gearing up for a simultaneous worldwide release of Gundam: the Gathering and Gundamhammer. Prease understandu.
>>94736528Okay well nobody fucking replied so I went through their effects and figured it out myself>NSp+Defensive mechanicsPowerful blockers on the low endHighest number of good targets for option's security effect, strong on-plays, strong passives, blockers+TlalocGenerally the strongest payoff. Plays two level 5s with good effects and dumpsters minimum 21k DP worth of digimon (every turn). Extremely strong even without DNA.-ladderingNo alternative jogress condition on tlaloc, no level 5 that plays more digimon (piximon doesn't count), no DNA level 5. You are totally reliant on Elradimon to turbo into your boss - otherwise, you'll have to hard-evolve into it (fine), or have one of your strong level 5s / aces survive on the field for a turn-removalNO hard removal anywhere in the deck below Tlaloc, barely even any suspends to help swing over enemies. Reliant on Kabuterimon + motimon to clear board threats.Conclusion: Toolbox deck of the three. You don't have a strong path to your payoff, but you have multiple strong choices of ACE, a powerful low-end, lots of good level 5s, the largest card pool in general. You're going to be hard-playing lots of digimon and hoping they survive a turn.
>>94739835>NSo+Low play costs3-cost level 4s and 5-cost level 5s.+DNA level 6Callismon is by far the strongest of the DNA level 6s.+DNA condition on a level 5Myotismon has the "immediately DNA and attack" passive that is normally on a level 6. Because of this, if you've already gone into Piedmon ACE on the enemy's attacking turn, you can immediately go into Boltboutamon if they check the option in your security.+OTKEasiest deck of the three to OTK with via things like SkullMeramon, Callismon, Myotismon's unsuspend, etc.-weak low endLow end generally can't accomplish anything on its own. NO blockers mean that you are entirely reliant on recovery, aces, and security effects to defend yourself.+RemovalIt's everywhere.Conclusion: Of the three, NSo is the turbo deck. Build a stack in raising and go into your big boss as fast as possible. Ideally OTK.
>>94739848>DS+low-end aggroBlue shit. Jamming, card draw, memory gain, clear level 3s, whatever.+COMBOOOOOThe egg makes for interesting combo turns and you can reuse it through jogress. Swing, gain some memory, hard play a level 4, jogress into whamon, swing, gain a memory, play a level 4, digivolve into plesio, play a level 4, jogress into whamon, swing, play a level 4...+protectionProbably the best suite of protection effects, even considering NSo's blanket Scapegoat. Notably Aegis is the only payoff that can play a level 6, so you can potentially throw up an on-play floodgate, a when digivolving floodgate, and a blanket effect immunity (at various memory levels) to protect yourself. Dedigi and dp reduction immunity, and scapegoat are all available.-removalit's REALLY bad. You're reliant on a few conditional sources of stun. Aegis might not even be able to block enemy digimon.-whamonDeck is entirely reliant on whamon to do anything, you'll wish you had 8 copies. It's even your only defensive option to play off the option.Conclusion: Aggro / swarm deck. Your top end isn't actually that good and mostly serves as a way to turn off aces and blockers and protect your weak low-end. You're going to take level 4s out of raising and swing with them.
>>94739835>>94739848>>94739855My take: NSO is probably the strongest because of OTK potential, removal, and not needing to leave anything on the board which will just get deleted.
>>94739848NSo DOES have a blocker, it's just a promo not in the first wave of support, a level 6, and therefore a little bit awkward.
>>94738446EX8 seems to make Gallantmon the best deck so you'll get some reprieve from those two.
>>94739870I feel like you don't use that card. The similar promos for the other tribes maybe, but it doesn't mesh with NSo
Okay.
>>94741459Replacing Sistermon something fierce.
>>94741459I think it's bad when everything can clear level 5's before attacking because it means we have to rely on level 7 aces and they're harder to remove
>>94741534Jesmon has already been doing that since bt13, 10 if you include the fact that x can rape your field on attack.
>>94741459this seems more relevent to knights than to jesmon
>>94741459They should so a liberator chapter where Arisa plays a Jesmon deck
>opponent has a full Huankunmon Magna X stack>tries to attack security while there's a suspended Dinomon in playhttps://youtu.be/xTQVW3KMkpE?feature=shared
>>94741459No, no wait, I've got it:Zeed
>>94742679Unsuspend blitz not enough for you? Greedy
Okay I guess this explains why the set's BaoHuckmon lets you play a Gankoomon. Then this digivolves Bao into the new Savior, who has the EoT that digivolves himself into a Jesmon by suspending Gankoomon, who has Reboot so it's basically for no additional cost.
>>94731811Update I brought an aggro deck to a control party :(still had fun
I heard Nats participation was like 300 people. Isn't that insanely low? I feel like we hit 1k last year.
>>94742670the greatest counter to the blue player is creating a board state where he has to actually think and pay attention
>>94743144and when they make that twink from the bara comic a tamer who can further reduce the playcost of gankoomon? what then?
>>94743502I think last year was around the same. This year was 320
>>94743144People really gonna sit here and tell me this man isn't a Bancho with that design.
>>94741459>Cost 3>>94743144>Cost 4Black hate is real
>>94744872Just don't be half cast, easy as. Gankoo trying to bridge the red/black divide instead of just going all in on digivolving off red exclusively is his core issue since the decks he is built for only have racially pure level 5s.
>>94723892>black magnamonthat card makes me seethe so fucking much. I always seem to run into it.
That 7GDL list that won is the most vanilla list ever. The deck is good but its so matchup reliant, it has a good mirage match up but any magna X will end your run. Wish the game had sideboard
>>94746030It's kind of funny that both of the LIBERATOR decks coming out this week are OTK decks disguised as something else.
>>94746066Did not mean to reply
>>94746066What do you mean? Mineral is explicitly an OTK deck and I don't see how Tyrannomon can OTK
>>94746105Skadimon and Mineral both bill themselves as long-term value control decks when you look at their mechanics, but they both just unsuspend multiple times with Sec+1 and OTK.
>>94746030While I really like sideboards, I'm not sure how it would work out in this game. If it were 5 cards, 10% of the total deck size, it would mostly be floodgates. The crazier suggestions I've seen of 10 card sideboards would let purple and wargrey change out their entire strategy. With the game being Bo1 in JP, I don't see them considering it unless that were to change as well
>>94746902Yeah plus Black and Yellow don't need the freedom to slot in whichever additional ShadowSeraphi/MegaGargo/Valkyrimon they need to beat the matchup. Other colours don't have the ace flexibility, it wouldn't be fair
>>94745165why does the simulator never let me evolve into magna after combat?
>>94747181Do you have a valid target? It used to work but by the time I'm hitting sec they always seem to have magna X in play anyway
>>94747181Because the simulator is shit.
>>94747181Do you have a veemon on your board..?
>>94748011nta, but we're talking about st17 magnamon, right? black/blue? Just looking at it, it says '1 of your digimon may digivolve into this card without paying the digivolution cost'; it doesn't explicitly specify Veemon must be the target.
>>94748116
>>94748510Unless the effect says otherwise, you always have to obey the rules of the game when resolving the effect.
>>94748524meant for>>94748116
>>94748510>>94748524This is the first time I've actually looked at the card, and at a glance, the black box [Veemon] is just an alternate option that would allow something like an off-colour Veemon to digivolve for 3, but a level 3 blue or black should also be an applicable target for the security effect, right?
>>94748533Yes.
>>94748551okay, because the retard-helmet post, the 'do you have a veemon on the board' post, and the sim supposedly not having the implementation was gaslighting me into thinking I was missing something.
>>94746462Pyramidimon cant really OTK, it needs a shitload of setup. Minimum 2 Close and 3 minerals in trash. Any deck could OTK with two tamers and a pride memory boost that went their way. Skadimon you're right though.
Zephagamon deck will be 100% promo at the end of the year
Okay now this alphamon is podracing.>>94748953Maybe zephga ace will ebt he sec, it is in this set after all.
>>94748953It is odd how many promo cards have been made for it and cendrillmon.
>>94749148lmfao at these guys being Kazuchimon and Fenriloogamon but black
>>94749148Is it a controversial opinion to kinda prefer that sword over Oryuken?
>>94749204Both are cool, I prefer the sword though and my shf has it equipped.
Digivolving your breeding area should have been Nanimon and Digitamamon's gimmick
>>94749148>Black Yellow AlphamonThat's kind of sick, shame it kind of sucks outside of being Jogress food.
>>94749204The Ouryuken is pretty boring, honestly
>>94748561You are if you didn't have a valid digi target.
>>94747282yes, even when I have a veemon out he almost never prompts to evolve on the simulator. I thought the card got errata'd or something. I think I have seen it work once or twice but not since paladin mode ace came out. Dozens of times it could have or should have prompted me.
>>94749621See, I REALLY don't like that you think I'm engaging in this conversation trying to digivolve a level 7 into a fucking level 4, or something retarded -- that with the omission of details that need not be explicitly stated, you think I'm trying to do some game breaking thing, when the fact of the matter, is that the simulator is fucking broken and doesn't consider valid targets to be applicable for ST17 Magnamon's security effect.NO BUT YOUR VEEMON THONow, maybe I'm using an outdated version of the game, but I just tested it, and it absolutely did not acknowledge a blue rookie I had on the field.
>>94749780the imperium of dramon thanks you for your service. stay angry and stay based.
>>94749808I don't even like/play Imperialdramon, Magna, or anything tangentially related to veemon, I just found the reply chain to be agitating. I guess what I didn't pick up on ('tism?), is that Magnamon players are perceived to be retarded, and the intrinsic expectation, is that the other MagnAnon is a fucking Microcephaly baby trying to digivolve on a non-valid target.But the whole approach to the conversation just makes you guys come off as dickheads for no reason, giving utterly useless non-answers that are the equivalent of 'is it plugged in'? Seeing the slanted response fucking made me start to question my reading of the card, because apparently operating in good faith, and expecting a basic understand of game rules from playing magnamon is too much, and the immediate response, is to imply they don't have a basic understanding of the game.There was ONE guy who said the sim doesn't work, but it was diluted in the sea useless replies. jfc
>>94749859there is always a great deal of low quality posting from beta males and trannies. I just want to security bomb twice as hard, I am a simple man.
What do you guys think of the standardized 7-cost level 6s they've been pumping out? I think it's a great sign that they realize something's wrong with the game (not enough decks have in-engine followup when they get board wiped) but it's kind of rough when you realize most of them are going to get compared to MedievalGallant. I don't think they've quite found the right balance yet, I don't know why I'd ever play AvengeKidmon for instance.
>>94749148The Chronicle deck looks fun but where's the egg?
>>94749780Unless you're playing some weird jank deck that for some reason includes promo Magnamon, Magnamon decks play only Veemons.
>>94749859Have you ever considered taking a break from the internet?
>>94750037>>94750037>>94750037
>>94750005my magna deck is a magna package in imperial, so I run worms too
