I'll tack on a new preview card from today. Val & Vaira allow you to use the Burst effect of a card on the field, yours or your opponents.And I couldn't work through translating 神羅天使. Anyone have an idea of how to approach it? I came up with 'Angelique' as something both Western and Angel related, but I feel like I'm being pulled by the art into thinking that (French maid attire).
>>96929381Just realized 神羅 is used again near the bottom of the card. Probably related, should inflect off of that instead.
>>96929184>Hubworld: AidalonHow is this at 3p or 4p?
>>96929547so... don't? if everybody in your local is mindlessly netdecking the same two things, bring your own creation tuned to beat the shit out of those.
>>96929184If a set has my Oshi I'll open a box or two for her but otherwise I just grab singles for deckbuilding. That being said, now that I've been meeting people in person to play I've been tempted to open boxes for more trading/selling leverage.
>>96929381>>96929556I don't know if there's any good translation for 神羅. It's a made up word pronounced "shinra". It's literally the exact same shinra as in Shinra Company from Final Fantasy 7.I'd just read it as is without translating it, like it's a name. Lots of cards have it in their title and the ability "Shinra Summon".
>>96929724Where the fuck is the Ina Oshi card
>>96929729 (Me)>>96929381And I forgot to mention, in that case I'd translate the name of that card as "Shinra Angels, Val & Vaira"
>>96929584Played it at 3p a few times and it was pretty good
So, Whispers in the Well pre-release is today. Anyone picking up a preorder? I did, but mine won't arrive until Wednesday.
How many Champions are there for Riftbound that can be your chosen right now? I'm looking at the card list on their site and see Leona, who was a favorite of mine, but I don't know what's actually available.
>>96929584Scales really well and has specific rules to keep things fair.In a three player game you must score an agent from each other player first before you can score your winning third. That means no one gets held down and blown up until it quickly becomes a head to head match. In four player winning the game is achieved by scoring unique agents from each of the three other players. Scoring over one agent from each player technically is possible, but it only keeps a player in the game longer because they have fewer targets on their back. Not too many games feature a system like that where you can help someone's odds of winning by draining their agents wantonly. It also means the other players who did need that specific player's agent to win have to work harder to find another of theirs from their deck and boardstate.
>>96929785Lorcana is actually really fun for what it is, but it's too dead locally to want to stay interested.
Late pledges for Hubworld Aidalon opens up soon. There wasn't anything unique between the last crowdfund and this open version, so dive in any time if you are excited for this game.
>>96931264>if you are excited for this game.LOLOLOLOL
>>96931264I'll probably buy it when it hits retail. I enjoyed the demo decks.
>>96931449Yes, excitement. The quantifiable joy one experiences when engaging with something that is stimulating, beautiful and inventive; all things that Earthborne Games have achieved with their card game projects to date. >>96931468Reminder that's a collectible now, so don't toss em out.
>>96931032Sorry to hear that. I hope it continues to thrive locally for me. The community is part of what makes it so fun.
>>96929785No pre-order, but might pick up a box today when I go to prerelease. Only 6 people signed up for the event starting in 2 hours, which is not a great sign given we normally get 12-16 at weekly tournaments...I expect the only card to keep its current price to be new Cinderella. Do note the lack of "another" in the rules text. This bitch can trigger multiple turns.
>>96932257Motherfucker I swore I put in the Pic.
>>96932257>>96932271I thought At The End Of Your Turn effects could only trigger once by default? Even if so, that's already a really good effect.
>>96932364Really, any effect that lets you ink an uninkable card is already extremely good.
>>96931264>>96931511I really wanted to like this, but I... I just can't. It's just not diverse enough.EBG really lost their way with this one. The children of Yakub have no place in gaming. We have evolved beyond that.Hopefully they return to a world more like Earthborne Rangers in 2026.
>>96932364Once per turn, yes. But she'll trigger herself, and then another turn you play her or another princess, she'd trigger again.Usually she just triggers once but ramp + card selection is kino.
Can I say that I really do like flavor text on cards, fuckin love it honestly. The League cards do that thing though that I don't like with some tcgs where 90% of the flavor text ware throw away empty 1 liners with no real meaning.
>>96932406
>>96932513
>>96932271Some really pretty shades of blue on this card.
>>96932577I dunno, sometimes a collar can be nice.AWOO ^_^
>>96932515>is that a heckin' handarino?Catfish would take that bait.
>>96929184>>Thread Question>Do you regularly open packs or mostly buy singles?I've bought at least a case (4 boxes, 24packs each) of every fab set since the beginning of covid except for 2 specific sets, but those were instances where I went to a lot of limited games so didn't feel the need to buy boxes. I don't open up packs every week but I do I open up a lot of packs every release. I also buy singles to fill what a case and trades didn't bring me, but it's far less than starting from scratch.
>>96929184>Do you regularly open packs or mostly buy singles?I buy 1 box on set release if it's reasonable and then I buy 1 pack every weekly.I buy singles to fill out what I need.
>>96929184Never opened a bad booster box in my entire lifeSure you might not get the cards you want but you can easily sell what you got or trade it for what you do and buy what you need afterThe randomness of the booster box is that it can pay for itself and more or give you cards that in the future will spike when a new set releases a card with synergy for old cards
>>96931511After seeing the retail price to card quality ratio on EBR idk if I care anymore. It's not like theres going to be literally any OP where I live that I'll miss out on because EBG don't give a fuck about people actually playing their games.Honestly if there's basically no OP would this really even qualify as a /acg/. Even Arkham Horror gets fucking OP
>>96928635>But what's the demand for it these days, beyond nostalgia? What would make a Chaotic revival worthwhile and would it reasonably compete in an already crowded market?Scalping is at an all time high right now for card games, why not? There's a huge demand for any card game, I go to Target or Walmart in my area and I can barely find anything not sports-card related (Lorcana deck boxes, Ultra Pro Binders, those little plastic collectible toys). It's frustrating just seeing scalpers ruin the card section.But I think Chaotic could succeed because not only of the nostalgia, but the recent uptick on Whatnot auctions and Ebay sales of old collections and booster boxes shows there's still quite a big community for it. Just like the Netrunners card game before it got a second chance at life. Of course the financial investment risk is there, but that's why I suggest the crowdfunding route. Let the people vote with their wallets. Let them fund the comeback for the card game so you can see the true demand for it. If it fails, it fails, but we'll have a recent data point after 17 years of not trying at all. If it never happens I'll just save up to buy an Ursis card on the 2ndary market because he is my favorite Chaotic creature of all time, but I will always keep hope in my heart because I think the card game deserves it.
Sold my riftbound box for $237. Fucking ridiculous.
How long are Riftbound single prices going to hold? I bought some packs on a lark and got some decent pulls, not sure if I should hold or not.
Fuck scalpers
Am I stupid or is Hidden almost pointless on this card?It's already an Action so you can use it during a battle, so you're just paying one additional mana to turn it into a Reaction instead? That seems like a steep and risky cost for an incredibly niche upside.
>>96936526Last warningBig money is moving out of Poke, out of Mag, and flowing back into other interests. Hide your kids, hide your wife, cause everybody's getting scalped up in here.
>>96936261They're gonna be printing more product, I would imagine that + hype dying down would lead to singles getting cheaper
>>96936678No, you're recycling 1 to turn it into a reaction. You don't pay anything to reveal it.The only downside is that it can only target things at its battlefield if it's hidden.
>>96936861Singles are cheaper when people open packs rather than hoard them. Supply high, demand for singles is outstripped after everyone has theirs. Scalping alone can only impose collector value of cards but it's actual players that are in need of the singles to play that gives them meaning.
>>96932513There are some that are alright
If I just want to start from scratch with very little card experience and none from the past decade+, which game is good?
>>96937453Lorcana 's pretty good for beginners, as long as you don't mind Disney.
>>96937477And if I do?
>>96937518whatever gets played near you
>>96937527What's the best way to do that? Just call up stores and ask what's popular there?
>>96937530That or you can go on their facebook pages or websites. Most stores will have events posted on one of those.
>>96927064Those are STILL a thing? This late in the game?
>>96937518Hmm... maybe Pokemon?
Looks like WotC remembered that the west still has a Duel Masters community. Looks like good things may be coming.https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2612189237
>>96938528WHAT THE FUCKREAL MODERN ENGLISH CARDS?
>>96938540They're dev cards, but yes, they're VERY real. Make sure to let Dillion (one of the current English/JP DM game designers) that you want this back.It's time.
>>96938540Actually wait, apparently they're just like "official proxies" and not "real" real.Still, this is more Duel Masters acknowledgement from WotC than they've done in probably over a decade.
>>96938528>dev proudly shows off his personal Duel Party (Commander) deck that is completely made up of dragon musume cardsBAAAAAAAAASED
>>96936930Wait, flipping hidden cards is FREE?I was explicitly told that you still pay their cast cost, hiding's main advantage was that it made cards reaction speed.
>>96938766Did you not read the card? Recycle a rune to hide them, pay 0 to reveal as reaction. Pretty clear.What isn't clear is you can't flip them the turn you play them, and they can only target the Battlefield that they're at when revealed.
>>96935896>There's a huge demand for any card game, I go to Target or Walmart in my area and I can barely find anything not sports-card relatedAnybody who lived through both of the bubbles of the sports card world in the late '90s and the TCG world of the early 2000s knows we're right in the middle of that cycle yet again.
either I need to stop playing old games, digital versions, or just accept I'll never play with randos again because if this the point where we call this entry level wew boy I'm okay not entering
>>96940815140 - Booster display Beta 40 - Beta Starters 80 - Battlefield Playmat, two player (I've seen it for 40 before, but not anymore)100 - Booster Display for Arthurian Legends 360 dollery doos total They're selling you the stuff people wants/can use at market value and handing you a free Arthurian legends box on top. I wouldn't call that entry level though, I'd stop at one box of precons and 12 packs each player to begin.
>>96941043The deal is so great I'd definitely pick it up if I were in the US. The customs sour the deal too much.
Went 2-1 with Teemo last night, deck feels really solid if you're able to establish a hold early. 50 people for first Nexus Night is giving me hope for the game, hopefully omni-present Kai'sa decks don't gut the player base before the next set can be released
What do you use to store your cards?
>>96942638
>>96942692very stylish
Went to a card show. Found a bunch of things I wanted. Unfortunately the show was 99% pokemon. I did find a guy with some ScoreZ cards, but nothing I wanted.Oh, and several vendors recognize me now, which is fun. One guy started opening his binders to cat cards as I was walking up. Fun day today. Would have loved to see more game variety, though. And absolutely zero Neopets cards anywhere.
Are sorcery precons even needed? If I buy a booster box isn't it just going to have all those cards anyways plus more?
>>96935544this was true before scalpers inflated the price of everything
>>96942638I use the white cardboard boxes that my LGS sells. I don't know the brand name but I'm sure people will know what I'm talking about.
>>96944113BCW. The 5k is overkill get the next step down.
>>96942513I swear everybody in here who posts about Riftbound says they're playing Teemo.Is he the 4chan character?
>>96944426Now way, I'm on Teemo. Should I be worried?
>>96944471Worried about what?
>>96942692You know, I have about as many ziplocks full of cards as I do storage boxes. Whatever works, works. Helps quickly lock in the freshness of a sealed pool, I'll tell you what.
>>96944426I also want to play teemo. Natural troll character
>>96944426this is the first time I've posted about it :((
>>96943298Prob would take more than one box to get all the uniques and elites. Gothic precons will have exclusive avatar alt arts so there’s more of a reason to buy them
>>96945501It's just something I've noticed. I've posted about my Teemo deck and I've seen at minimum 4 other posts about theirs.What's your list? This is mine. Also went 2-1.
>>96938528That's cool and all, but I wouldn't get my hopes up, even if they do manage to release EN cards somehow. WotC are incompetent buffoons and they already fucked up twice with DM alone. If they do release a modern EN version only to axe it again I am going to go rabid.
>>96945603Aren't they 1 and 2 of a kinds? So there's no way to build a precon with a box? I understand pullrates aren't guaranteed but I think that in most other games you should reasonably be able to build a starter with a box break, with very few edge cases where you would just have to buy a couple singles to 100% a precon list. Thanks for mentioning the difference with Gothic as I haven't preordered that yet, but I have two boxes locked in.I have yet to open any sorc cards. Wondering if just a box of alpha would be enough to make a suitable precon if I opened it?
>>96946817>You may put Sherlotta into the Break Zone to produce 1 CPI see
>>96946844>>96946817*cop sirens blairing in the distance*
>>96946425By opening a booster box, you'll most likely end up with a complete, or nearly complete, set of ordinaries, some sets of exceptionals, and most likely singles of elites, not to mention uniques, which you might get none that you need. In my experience, one box will get you an approximate of the precons, but you'll miss the guaranteed identity rarer cards might get you.One booster box most likely will get you a fairly functional limited deck
>>96946425there's pretty much no much way you will be able to recreate any of the starter decks from one box because of the pull rates of uniques/avatars/and exceptional sites. You will be able to make a 2 element deck from one box for sure though. To get the cards from all 4 starter decks you would need to open multiple boxes probably, but by then you'd be able to build a better deck than any of the precons. Beta precon is a good deal if you just want to play right away comes with 4 decks and goes for 35-40 on ebay.
>>96942638shoebox
What's a meta deck in Riftbound cost right now?
>>96948889I'd guess somewhere around like $300-$400 since the Kai'sa and Yi decks run several epics that are around $70 a piece.
>>96948939well fuck that then I'll stick with my Bandaislop the games might suck ass but at least the decks are cheap
>>96948945I think that's why so many people are running Teemo right now. It can stand up to the meta decks pretty well and the only expensive card you need for that is Thousand Tailed Watcher, which is around $40-$50 and most lists I see only run 2 of them.
been playing gundam on that online client, this game is cooked. there are only 2 viable decks. I don't know how they managed to do that
How do you even revive a dead game? Not like literally dead but one that never took off and is still getting sets but is on life support.
>>96949136It can be possible locally if you have a big friend group and you're all looking for something new and your opinion matters to them enough to try and log term what you're suggesting to them. It's rare but I've seen that happen a couple of times. But on the larger scale that stuff is very hard. Like if you're the owner of that game's company, making it happen artificially is impossible. Especially now that the market is so saturated. Smaller local communities keep getting into large games all over the place.
playing against white in gundam is cbt. I regularly play games where even if I am able to maintain board, we both end up top decking for multiple turns at the end of the game. what kind of fucked up design is this
>>96949284>what kind of fucked up design is thisIt's as if they don't care
