Need some Tips on Ventus Deck Building

[sharp frigate]

Hey guys,
How can I improve or change the deck I have here and maybe also some deck building tips in general?
Thank you!

[edgy tulip]

triple chain is a risky card to run

[sharp frigate]

yeah, i noticed...

i think i will get rid of it

[grand juniper]

it’s doable but not with how that deck is set up

it’s pretty consistent if you run 3 twister+3 blow away

i can send my list in a few min

Thanks for the tips guys!

Another general tip for deck building is, if you want it to be more consistant, is to not run any "one-off" cards. Meaning just having 1 Storm Breaker when you need it most hard to get consistently than if you chose to run another copy of a different card. It's better to have 2 copies of one card than it is to have 1 copy of 2 cards, at least for consistency.

(Except for Character Ability Cards. Having one each is a great way to diversify your strategy, but can mean you get a dead draw if you lose that bakugan in the early game.)

I'd change storm breaker for Air Battle since it negates gate cards too

[sharp frigate]

thanks for the tips!

[grand juniper]

yep, and i think 1 jump over and 1 air battle is a good balance

[snow ridge]

i dont know much about ventus

but couldnt you just replace jump over with air battle?

since jump over just works with adyacent card

[edgy tulip]

sometimes u dont want to negate a gate card

[cunning mortar]

Well Air Battle prevents a gate card from opening, but it does nothing to negate a gate card that is already open. I agree that Air Battle is definitely better than Jump Over.

[snow ridge]

but you can simply use scarlet twister

[edgy tulip]

oh

[snow ridge]

wait really? it only negates the card before being opened?

[cunning mortar]

Yes.

[edgy tulip]

probably to make it weaker than dive mirage since ventus has other movement

i guess in some cases it's a good thing though

[snow ridge]

that's actually op

also people dont talk about backdraft enough

its basically a negate

[edgy tulip]

ye

[grand juniper]

i run warp gate, so if i’m battiling i can jump over to warp if i have a bakugan on it already

to create a 3v1

[snow ridge]

doom dimension

you're cooked

[edgy tulip]

blow away

[snow ridge]

dark eye superior

[edgy tulip]

another blow away or backdraft

does scarlet twister help in that scenario

regardless ventus has a ton of movement

[grand juniper]

i run 3 twister and 3 blow away

[snow ridge]

as you should

[cunning mortar]

Scarlet Twister works best if your target for the ability is not in battle. Otherwise, the Ventus Bakugan you are using is defeated.

[snow ridge]

facts

[grand juniper]

it’s good tho since u can move ur bakugan or to ur opponents

can create 2v1s and 3v1s with it

[snow ridge]

ventus doesnt really need character cards does it

[grand juniper]

it does

also one thing to note about jump over vs air battle is air battle doesn’t resolve if you have 3 bakugan on that card already, while jump over still works

[snow ridge]

maybe negates but just those

why waste a space on aplha blaster

[grand juniper]

if you go first with ventus you need a character

[snow ridge]

if you can have backdraft

[grand juniper]

or triple battle

[snow ridge]

nonono

[grand juniper]

or something to that effect

[snow ridge]

i meant ability cards

srry

[grand juniper]

ohhh

this is my ventus build

i don’t use any chrachter abilities with it

[snow ridge]

solid deck my guy

yeah that's my point, ventus just doesnt need it

[grand juniper]

it cooks in 2v2s

[pliant creek]

You really want to limit scarlet to 1-2 in a deck. It’s easy for the opponent to read what bakugan is moving which, and in most cases they will just move onto ur bakugan causing a defeat. You really need to be careful when using the ability

[grand juniper]

if you’re mainly using it defensively that makes sense but i run 3 because i use it to bring my own bakugan in the fight to make it a 2v1

[pliant creek]

Still ez to counter. I’d just move onto the bakugan u want to bring over causing u to lose a bakugan and most likely the battle ur already in as u needed to move over. The only way to counter is to use another scarlet, or airbatllw in a chain to cancel the previous scarlet.

It’s a good card but u want to make sure scarlet is the last in a chain

[grand juniper]

i can backdraft, air battle, or jump over as you mentioned

i sent my build in here earlier if you want to take a look

i really don’t find it bad unless i’m playing against aquos

[pliant creek]

It’s not bad. It’s just predictable forcing u to lose card advantage. Like I said, u need it to be the last in a chain or ur dead

[pliant creek]

Kind of. Just scarlet doom to different gate card. Yeah u lose 1 but u saved 2.
