Gundam fans?
>>97299373Missed you too, buddy. I leave the thread alone for one winter holiday and well, just look at the state of it. Compendium of Rathe is going to change Flesh and Blood forever. There is no doubt about that. This is a Marquee set on the eve of a monumental tournament season. The prices of boxes are going up, yes they are, folks. LSS said it's an extra special pricing that won't be sticking around *winks*. I'll see it when I believe it.With cards like Pursuit of Knowledge being spoiled, I think it's safe to say this is History Pack's bizarro brother. See History Pack was white bordered and cheap. It was meant to be a collection of all of the staple cards to catch new players up to the original adopters, just none of that foiling crap so they can dance around reprinting promises. It gave people a chance to reclaim past Legendaries and Majestics, so they could start playing the hero they wanted, and on a reasonable budget. But PEN? That's the opposite side of this concept. Though it's still intended to help on-board new players into the game, it's being turned into a special foil wonderland that comes at a special price. People will delight as they get to relive all of fab's wonderful history of cards, with a few surprises thrown in there to help boost classes in need. I mean, look at the wonderful design of the boots in the OP? Those are stone cold stunners, as in stone dead. These are horrendous replacements for Snapdragon Scalers, a common card so powerful it could never be topped in game design, so they banned it. But now you have Bolt'n'Boots; you're welcome! So dredging back up old ass cards that never see play anyways, like Pursuit, and new cards that are kinda ass, like Boots. What a great premium product, am I right? But you have a chance to pull a legendary generic! That piece will never leave your collection (no value). The real chase is the Fables, which set a dangerous precedent that you have to have them in order to compete. Fantastic.
>>97299425That is such a simple deck bro. You abyss all their shit after playing svernir over and over.
>>97299514I drew Svernir once out of the two times I tried it. I'll give it another go because it looks so fucking cool.
>>97299443No, Savage.
>>97299532https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Kk5eQDN10Here's a video of a similar build in action. Your three drops like One winged and Highheel fill the graveyard so you can use Svernir and Primitive to spam your board. Then you put Rising Abyss Taboo under Abysslove and win from there.
>>97299543Ooooh okay. I drew two Svernir and Primitive came a bit later than that. I haven't finished testing yet but the way I'm building makes way more fucking sense thanks anon. Rising Abyss Taboo isn't in the deck but looking over it again the Dangerous cards are supposed to make up my finishing plays if I had to guess. The only floodgate is Dangerous = Jack but the decklist I posted doesn't seem to give much of a fuck about preventing anything just stalling.
>>97299641>Rising Abyss Taboo isn't in the deckIt was in the list you posted so I assumed it was.
in terms of collecting and pack opening experience, art, foil, designs, etc.1. pokemon2. one piecehuge gap3. riftboundhuge gape4. lorcana5. magic play boosters (collectors msrp too expensive to even consider and it's barely better than play)why is lorcana so bad? like who's idea was it to think cold foils were a good idea or make the one holo card in a park a possible common or uncommon like how it is in auraless mtgidk what else to buy and collect now that one peice is being scalped
>>97299652>Rising Abyss TabooFuck yeah it was I must be blind good grief sorry about that. I drew that card an awful lot not once did I utilize it properly, looks absolutely brutal.
>>97299543>Svernir and Primitive Soul's effects chain togetherHaha that's epic.
>>97299678It's your main objective, really. Wipe their board and either leave them with nothing, or attack swiftly with your evolution creatures if they're not a shield trigger deck.>>97299703Exactly. Svernir gets Primitive which gets Svernir etc. One winged helps you mill and Just in You is another 4 copies of Svernir to get you rolling.
maybe we can try /anrg/ during vantage point spoiler season? :3c
In Sorcery do you get to draw a card if you grapple shot into enemy with battlemage and kill it?
>>97299783Battlemage can only draw a card when it has used the ‘move and attack’ ability. Grapple is mobility plus a strike.
>>97299443Of course.
it has cool mecha
ALRIGHT! Finally got the feel of the deck down a little bit.
>>97299963On what are you playing?
>>97300016Untap.in because free and up to date as far as I can tell. Can't get Duel Masters Play's to work and that shit isn't free anyway
>ftw you remember Gate Ruler existed
>>97300048What the fuck is Gate Ruler?
>>97300054Don't worry about it.
>>97299677I love Lorcana, but I can agree that the foils are annoying. In addition to being warped as fuck, they also make the cards way harder to read. I actively avoid putting foils in my decks unless I don't have an alternative. Sometimes they can look pretty, but the esthetics don't outweigh the negatives.
>>97299359>TQScoreZ for over 25 years. Such a good game. My friends and I often joke that we'll take our decks to the grave with us.
>>97299677>pokemonDepending on what kind of autism you have Pokémon can actually be awful to collect because modern sets have no thematic consistency.
>>97299501No one else here cares about fab enough to tell rangerfaggot that these are actually worse than Snapdragon Scalers and that SS aren't banned in the only format that matters (Classic Constructed), nor the fact that these special wunderkind snowflake boots are only for his class.
Plus, this is the card rangerfaggot wants you to be sad is "going away" in the format that won't matter to anyone with a brain or a heart.
Warlordanon must've actually really factually died or moved on from the game because industry websites are reporting that Feb 2026 is a lock for the retail release. Hooray?
>>97301370the fuck is this game? it has big numbers all over the card
>>97301282>these are actually worse than Snapdragon ScalersI guess my sarcasm is too strong for you. I know the boots are garbage. They're for the new sage format, which is the only format that matters to LSS now, where snaps are banned. You know Silver age, in other words the only format in 2026 you can even dream of using ranger. The boltnboots are rare not even common, which makes about zero sense for how bad they are. Basically it's everything wrong with ranger in one lovely gear piece; finicky timing window to get full value, resource dependent and mandatory buff requirement just to get one hitpoint and go again. That's expert fab design right there, forcing a class that's already got too much on its mind to even function just to keep up with flip kicking ninjas or warriors with go-again out the wazoo. Hell next you'll point out Pursuit is a promo. I knew that too, and I still think this is another History Pack jank jamboree set. They're keeping these old concept cards 'in rotation' by allowing new players to have the fun of realizing there's really no home for Pursuit of Knowledge in their deck. Maybe new players will see the potential in it like the original ones did and get sucked into the long belief that one day the game will make use of these not-quite-good-enough cards; why else would they exist? Why else design useless gear over and over if everyone just jams the reprints? It has to mean James has a plan for all this... Doesn't he?
>>97301548i quit fab last year and i think the game's trying to appear to be deeper than it already is from the lack of hero-specific tutorials, i think this would get more people thinking about the game and more varied playstyles would emerge
>>97300048It's a shame it died. I liked the cards and themes
>>97302062They certainly had a variety of fun art.
>>97302071Maybe some acgs could've been digital. Maybe it's cheaper to run, and Asian players could carry the servers costs
What's going on with the Wixoss draft?
>>97302062It did 'toon world' better than Yugioh did by making it toon galaxy. It tried to do a lot of things better than Yugioh, in fact.
To my one piece players, is it worth getting 2 of the new set boxes at MSRP?
>>97303518I don't know the rules, but by what I have seen, its art and card template are better than many games
>>97303606The almost traffic light looking values are Attack (punching units), Hit Points and Strike (punching players). Typically you can't have a bunch of stuff out on the field so it has to kinda work for its place out there. Your Ruler card dictates a lot of how things are played.Here's a ruler as an example. So no hand size, ever, but you auto cast the top two cards of your deck, regardless of cost. So as you can imagine, you want big beefy units or massive table flips that earn their keep for taking up your drives during your turn. Game was really something else, really felt like a Japanese concept though, a weird mix of abstraction and common sense.
>>97303771>The almost traffic light looking values are Attack (punching units), Hit Points and Strike (punching players). Typically you can't have a bunch of stuff out on the field so it has to kinda work for its place out there.Sounds simple enough>Ruler card dictates a lot of how things are played.>picrelSounds KINO
>>97303795I think you're beginning to understand why I'm pissed that it's dead now.
>>97303771Sounds like a balancing nightmare.
>>97303970Game was gonzo style anime battle, units did not stick around forever and the games move fast. They could easily just ban a Ruler if things got out of hand. I think they even did release updated versions of Rulers, not quite sure if it was for that reason. The ability to split attack between unit or player destruction was a nice lever to pull when designing cards. A glass cannon might be good at striking but garbage at blocking with middling attack. There was also life point card triggers, but I honestly am forgetting how that worked. This one has a CNT trigger that says the opponent loses a life. I think that happens any time this card is stripped form deck and stacked up in your damage pile (counts up to your health pool and at max you die).Been years since I've thought of this shit though. Could be misremembering.
Look at this sick cunt. Not even got a power, just big numbers. Imagine driving two of these out.
>>97303897What did happen with it again? Was it sold to chinks or something?
>>97304069I don't know if that if a good rate:power, but if it is then the flavor text is amazing
>>97304037CNTs were a combination of damage trigger and damage resistance. You got an effect AND discarded the card afterwards. It was like reverse Build Divide. Most Rulers came out to about 30% CNTs per deck so you always had a decent chance of surviving lethal. Game absolutely ran on rule of cool.
>>97304118A lot of crazy shit happened. The short version of the story is that the creator(?) was a fucking nutjob.
>>97305084don't forget they busted them sitting on piles and piles of product trying to market manipulate and it came out
>>97305084Please elaborate. This sounds juicy.
>>97305175There was so much crazy shit I don't even remember it all. Creator had meltdowns in public, refused to pay people, I think he even had the game taken from him at one point but somehow he came back?Gate Ruler Anon used to keep us updated about it all.
Done some more thinking on the wixoss progression series and fiddled a bit with cockatrice. The program is just as unwieldy as i remember it to be. We have two choices here, but first i need to explain something to the people that don't know wixoss.Wixoss has gone through three different formats during it's life cycle: original wixoss, key selection, and diva selection. While the basic rules remain the same, there are a lot of differences on how they play and are almost different games. Think of them as sequels. I bring this up because the automated wixoss simulator currently only contains diva selection cards. this means that to play from the very beginning, we'll have to use cockatrice, which is quite outdated and not automated at all. So I'll leave the discussion to you>Start from the very beginning, but use a worse program>Use a more comfortable program, but start from the latest format insteadOf course if you have other ideas I'd be happy to hear it
>>97305823>Of course if you have other ideas I'd be happy to hear itWe do DM instead. Or Buddyfight.
>>97305967we might have to do dm instead. Wixoss is turning out to be too much of a pain in the ass
>>97305318>Creator had meltdowns in publicUse to talk mad shit, burned bridges in a hurry. Dude was kinda based but he was also an idiot that tanked his game so it pisses me off.
>>97305982And use what for DM? The only automated program is a f2p that isn't translated to english. I don't mind using something that isn't automated for Wixoss. I won't mind starting at a different format either.
>>97306196We wait 100 years for the anon making the sim to finish.
>>97306196>>97306243OCTGN works fine and shobu.io is another option that is automated, but it's only updated until DM-09 (for now). Tabletop Sim can also work, but you need a copy on Steam.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVycMhDwQJs
>>97306243I was under the impression that shobu had all sets but it only goes up to six, nevermind
>>97306262Correction*It's currently up to DM-10 and it's slowly adding more.
>>97306243I'm working on it.>>97306196I think Untap is the best option right now (even though it's manual), but don't quote me on that when you try it out and it sucks.
Playing Yugioh has spoiled me. Its sim are 100/10.
>>97306436At this point, if you're actively playing ygo in this day and age, you would be a fool not to use an auto-sim of some sort. The only exception would be playing an older format or practicing for irl play on Duelingbook, but even then you see a lot less using it.
I'm unboxing shadowrun mayhem and those Topps card are the most piece of shit cards I ever saw.Fake yugioh cards had better quality.
>>97305967Buddyfight would be cool. What's drafting like there? I only played constructed.
>>97305823god I wish DIVA never existedAnd why on earth they decided to bring diva to the west?Legit no one in the west know what the fuck an idol is and most importantly the theme is so small. The idols should have been an "archetype", not a whole game.Not even my gooner friends wanted to open booster pack when the only thing they will get is different colors of a "generic anime girl with microphone".Anyway do we have an idea how is going in japan? Is diva here to stay?
>>97305823How's Untap for Wixoss?
>>97307956Tapped
The last card games I got involved with are all dead now, so I don't fuck with them anymore. Got some "complete" sets though>Call of Cthulhu LCG>Warhammer Invasion LCG>Final War>Mage Wars Arena and Dominion
>fabians admit deck building in flesh and blood is mundane and egregiously flawed >everyone's fed up with how broken Gravy is despite him getting two targeted bansOh yeah, this game's cooked. There's no saving what is fundamentally broken, especially if the company making this shit ignores the fanbase and continues to arm only the most hyped flavor of the year heroes and classes. Boardstate heroes break the entire game in half every single time they are introduced, usually only requiring their introductory set in order to thrive. Meanwhile they haven't designed a good ranger character since they broke the game with elemenalist talents nearly half a decade ago.
>>97308500>FOTM pilot whining about FOTM deck>as a dromai playerI stopped reading there>>97306436When is the YGO prog series
if compendium of rathe is just history pack with extra steps i'm going to be so mad, i wanted it to be crucible of war 2
>>97305823DM isn't that much less cumbersome to play and the only big problem I can think of with drafting Wixoss is LRIGs needing to be compatible with each other, which isn't actually that much of an issue because you can just look at what people who draft Pokémon do (only include the top levels in the draft and then get the pieces to get there for free). Adding starting decks to the pool should mitigate the other possible issue of struggling to fill out a deck of a given colour. I say we at least try it out and if the drafting proves too complicated / Cockatrice proves too awful then we can switch to something else. I feel like if convenience and ease was what we're primarily after we probably wouldn't be on /acg/ in the first place, as nice as it would be for all these games to have proper simulators.
>>97308584A case of the broken leading the blind, unfortunately. It takes someone who knows how bullshit illusionist is to identify how even MORE bullshit Necromancer Pirate turned out to be. That rant was posted in a Ranger board too, hence the reference to the blind.
>>97308839At this point LSS can do anything they want because the players that have chosen to stay this long wont leave unless the game is kill. It's one of those things where drama happens now and I don't even bother to engage with it because there's no point, the people in the game dont care. It's only when I have randos ask me about it I make sure to just suggest doing some research on the people running the game and the nonsense that keeps happening consistently year over year. Some companies right now that get talked about here just keep doing it and getting away with it, i guess it is what it is. The consumers are speaking with wallets
I cannot wait to see what the Ki mechanic does in Fusion World. I just hope it's not just a generic power 10000 power boost like Don!! in One Piece. Ideally to me getting enough Ki under a card would unlock some kind of ability the card can do.
>>97308943I want to see this game succeed so badly. The rules are really neat and fun as far as the current bandai simplistic games out there go!!!The lack of meaningful effort support and transition when the went away from the old one is so frustrating. I forgot this game existed and I actively keep up with bandais out of curiosity
What's your favorite "we can't say tap so here's our version of the term" instance?
>>97308963I honestly cannot tell if you're being sarcastic or not.
>>97309153Dead serious. The old dragonball got bloated to shit and needed a change. Bandai has been cooking up a ton of simplistic games lately that have seen success: digimon and op are okay, union arena just below, gundam mediocre, and I literally forgot DBS existed because of how botched the handling of it has been. But the idea of how battles work I think is a better mechanic for me fun wise than digimon making these stupid fucking stacks and now linking digimon, or gundam with the pilot system which has promise but the game is functionally dead because of the design , card draw, and blocker thingAnd also, dragonball is just a funny goofy universe to be 'battling' with
>>97308018>The last card games I got involved with are all dead now, so I don't fuck with them anymore.What do you mean? You stop playing or engaging with games once they die?
>>97309151I think "Rest" is a pretty simple one. For sheer silliness I like "Roll" from Gundam War.
>>97309380>You stop playing or engaging with games once they die?I'd say most people do. Not many people are willing to engage with a hobby with no future and no support
>>97309294Hmmm, alright then. I do agree with you I've never played Masters but besides the fact that there are no locals for it near me anyway I'd never try to get into it with all the bloat it has. Digimon is fine I haven't played it since like BT14 though and I think One Piece and Gundam are two of the worst games on the market, especially Gundam. So as far as Bandai games that just leaves Fusion World which also just happens to have a client unlike their other games which means I don't even have to leave my house to play it but I also just enjoy it more than their other games.I really hope the Ki mechanic will be interesting. If it's just a generic power boost then I think that will be a disaster and I'll lose all hope in the game. I think counters wouldn't be the worst thing to add eventually even Digimon added them and that was always touted as a casual game.
>>97309438Yeah. Gotta consume. Playing isn't the point. Just need more product.
>>97308018My favorite from the soulful FFG era was game of thrones second edition. Such a good game.
How much can you reasonable expect to get from unique foil lands such as Saintweald, Fields of Camlann or River of Flame? In many sites they go over 100e but are people actually willing to pay that much?
