#

just make no sense to do it this way

mystic tartan
blissful olive
#

this their idea of an event

#

3 packs a day

mystic tartan
#

yeah

blissful olive
#

idc about rewards but like every set should launch with a battle fest kind of thing

mystic tartan
#

they literally hidden the other leader

#

even tho set coming 2 days

#

for what

blissful olive
#

well im happy that the BP leader is good

#

and maybe discard dragon is back who knows

mystic tartan
#

its the Rune one xdd

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

gonna need 2 see the other 2 legos

umbral seal
#

This was broken.

blissful olive
#

oh shes big burn

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

what was the other

#

the storm girl and who

#

also dont we always get 3 ?

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

oh that guy

#

yeah hes good

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

i might be nuts but i swear we gotten 3 legos before

umbral seal
#

I'm not saying these cards are bad. Both are good. But they're not even close to Lumiore

blissful olive
#

well depending on card pack luck i can probably make 2 decks

#

i will have like 25k vial after refund from nerfs then i think i have around 50 packs saved to open

mystic tartan
#

i have so many vials its crazy lul

blissful olive
#

i would too but i stopped playing for like 2 months

mystic tartan
#

so yeah im not pulling with coins

#

only with free packs

blissful olive
#

why not coins

#

what else u gonna do? take 2?

mystic tartan
#

nah im just saving

#

for collab

blissful olive
#

what collab

mystic tartan
#

prob set 7

blissful olive
#

oh i mean sure

mystic tartan
#

dont know but shadoba usually collab

blissful olive
#

u could save coins forever till like a leader u want come sout ig

#

then blow it all

#

i still cant believe i pulled unkei on a single pack

mystic tartan
#

it happens

blissful olive
#

if i get the haven leader tho sheee

#

ye i also started this game pulling 2 cerby tickets

#

was so happy

mystic tartan
#

my most luck was pulling 2 galmi

#

and 1 sinciro

#

before 100 packs

#

then its average

blissful olive
#

on my 250 pack

#

i got full art fucking kuon

#

smh

mystic tartan
#

WAJAJA

blissful olive
#

garbage ass shit lolo

#

wish i could turn it into vials this 3 copy shit is so ass

#

damn she looks hella good

umbral seal
#

They're going to drop a collab when people are least expecting it

mystic tartan
#

well i dont know when but ill be there

umbral seal
#

Because they want to convert non-spenders

mystic tartan
#

just gotta save Bedge

#

if its set 7 its fine if its later its fine

blissful olive
#

only way they gonna convert non spenders is if they release like

#

a god tier leader that sucks ur dick and makes u breakfast

mystic tartan
#

they got @cinder bay

#

with frieren

blissful olive
#

that forces mentally ill people to drop 500 dollars

mystic tartan
#

-2k

blissful olive
#

lmao

#

wonder what that fella really doing now

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

i want the fate one back

#

Jalter leader

mystic tartan
#

they actually make loads of money with that frieren collab kek

umbral seal
#

Correct but they're not going to overuse the collab button

#

If they're smart, at least

blissful olive
#

space em out every few months or something

#

we had horses and that shit so far right

mystic tartan
#

gimme free alt style collab

#

lul

blissful olive
red plover
#

wonder what amulets they are gonna add excluding that silver follower HmmTea

blissful olive
#

hrmge

#

well the xtals cound as amulets no

#

not to bring back but they should be able to blow them up

red plover
#

they should count for bringing back as well I thought HmmTea

blissful olive
#

well they are creatures not amulets

red plover
#

this says they count as amulets when you do that so I would assume you bring them back as well

blissful olive
#

but u can play them as 1

red plover
#

kuncussion would probably know HmmTea

blissful olive
#

logically it shouldnt

#

cause it comes into play as one but it also isnt one when it dies

red plover
#

but this text from the old game makes me think it does https://shadowverse.fandom.com/wiki/Crystallize
"Creating/Returning an amulet created by a Crystallize follower to the hand will not return it to being a follower and it will remain an amulet."

blissful olive
#

and in the grave it doesnt exist as an amulet its just a follower

red plover
#

which would mean it becomes an amulet instead to me

blissful olive
#

it does but its not going to the grave as an amulet its a follower

red plover
#

also you saying grave reminded me that theres no actual grave in this game you can look in LULE

#

when a card gets banished you cant find it anymore

blissful olive
#

yeah

#

the only thing we got is the log checked destroyed cards etc

red plover
#

yep, pretty annoying sometimes

red plover
#

if this card can be brought back when it gets played with crystallize

#

by this card

blissful olive
#

cause its not really an amu

#

the only way i can see this working is if the game treats them as 2 different cards

umbral seal
#

It would be in the pool because on amulet last words activation, it's in the amulet graveyard

#

If haven has reanimate

#

The follower would be eligible as well

red plover
#

thats what I thought

blissful olive
#

yeah in a normal game with a graveyard it wouldnt

#

but this is sv

red plover
#

it would have been weird to me if they made this card but it wouldnt work with all the other new cards

blissful olive
#

yeah its creating a 2nd card why it works

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

if it was the same card it wouldnt function

umbral seal
#

But this ain't that

umbral seal
#

I don't even remember how revival mechanics work in Hearthstone

#

Because there's no graveyard there either iirc

red plover
#

summoning that 5/3 with rush and bane over and over is gonna be pretty pog

blissful olive
#

i wonder if discard is gonna actually be good

umbral seal
red plover
#

cant wait for skullfane to be finally playable only to be removed next set LULE

blissful olive
#

dragon in general will still be up there id imagine

#

but i def wanna try the new stuff especially since the new leader

umbral seal
umbral seal
#

Hell, discard dragon would probably still run erntz

red plover
#

yea true, still think its gonna see some play at least and its a great card for take 2 and take 2 haven really needs it LULE

#

that 9 drop finally giving haven a decent win condition as well

blissful olive
#

ofc

#

erntz is a staple from now on ngl

red plover
#

didnt even realize I had an animated oluon, free premium mats I guess FeelsGoodMan

blissful olive
#

part of me wants to believe i dont die here

#

but i know its over af

blissful olive
#

this shit old af but still makes unwinnable boards for free

fading echo
#

they made a cthulhu chart for the new expansion

umbral seal
#

At minimum, you can kill the 7/7 with filene so you're not dead on board and not dead to albert sevo

blissful olive
#

nope there was nothing i could do there

umbral seal
#

???

#

I literally outlined what you could do. Filene SEVO + Ocean Rider saves you from death. Just because you cannot clear the entire board in one turn does not mean you lose

#

Terrible fucking logic, but not surprising from the person who's quick to concede.

red plover
#

if you play it right isnt there at most 3 damage on the board left HmmTea

#
  • the heal from the dolphins would have saved you anyway
umbral seal
#

No point trying to explain that to him. He'd rather concede the game instead of accepting a slightly bad position that he can stabilize from next turn

#

Because my line of play literally stops him from dying to anything except oluon rng

red plover
#

oh yea, oluon could have ended him

umbral seal
#

But even dying from oluon there is far from guaranteed and if I was the sword player, I would not do that.

blissful olive
#

u dont drop him when ur ahead

#

unless u just wanna coin flip

red plover
#

yea, no point to oluon with that much hp left

blissful olive
#

i just got royally fucked that game if i had gal i coulda easily wiped it

mystic tartan
blissful olive
#

she cant clear tho barrier

mystic tartan
#

u sevo her

blissful olive
#

no

mystic tartan
#

u have gran djeeta too

blissful olive
#

i was gonna neptune sevo kill the 2/2s and the 7/7

mystic tartan
#

u can clear that u idiot ICANTLOLW

#

no need neptune

blissful olive
#

nah

mystic tartan
#

sevo filene + ocean rider + use the whales to clear soldier (that one soldier dont have ward ) + use filene to kill amelia

umbral seal
umbral seal
#

He's just a shit player, don't bother

mystic tartan
#

LMAOOO

umbral seal
#

3 people, including a person who only plays Haven, outlined a play that saves you from everything except Oluon

blissful olive
#

im a good but lazy player

mystic tartan
#

Amelia magus is not op anymore bro u can clear with many

umbral seal
#

Yet you'll continue to say there's nothing you can do

#

Worthless

mystic tartan
#

honestly if ur hand is ass i understand

umbral seal
#

His hand isn't ass, though. He can clear the biggest threat and then fully clean up the board next turn, while remaining at a healthy life total.

#

Can't help fellas like this, though.

blissful olive
#

yeah i know i could neptune and leave 2 on board

red plover
#

I usually concede because I play pretty low tier decks, but this was playable at least

blissful olive
#

i just wasnt about to go through with all that

mystic tartan
#

bro

#

u dont have to neptune

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

why wouldnt i

umbral seal
#

Literally no one told him to Neptune

blissful olive
#

fil cant clear anything but the 7/7

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

so why would i drop that

red plover
#

removes all the barriers though

umbral seal
#

Good player btw

mystic tartan
#

lol she can clear with ocean rider + grand djeeta

blissful olive
#

so i kill 2 with her tops

mystic tartan
#

u clear that 2 ward with ocean rider after u sevo filene

blissful olive
#

then ocean rider wow ok doesnt matter im still fucked lol

umbral seal
sick oasis
#

i wish i'm playing against dragon players like you, no flame

blissful olive
#

surely

mystic tartan
#

nvm u can even Neptune+ocean rider lol

umbral seal
#

God, he's so fucking stupid

mystic tartan
#

u got 10 pp omg

blissful olive
#

u just mad cause i dont follow through with shit

#

i just dont care enough

mystic tartan
#

wait so u just surrend ??

blissful olive
#

if i played that shit out u would be like god joob lol

umbral seal
#

If you're going to peace out of a super winnable game like this, why are you playing at all?

blissful olive
#

i was very behind tbh

umbral seal
#

No, you weren't

#

No one here thinks that except your clown ass

#

Why do you think that is?

#

Because you're the only one right?

blissful olive
#

probably because im rage baiting u

umbral seal
#

lol Sure.

mystic tartan
red plover
#

just drop the dragon next turn for easy recovery even after albert

blissful olive
#

u know i dont care and will just next

#

i do this all the time

umbral seal
#

Thinking I'm mad because you choose to concede winnable games is certainly a take

#

I find it funny, personally.

blissful olive
#

you do seem to get oddly troubled

umbral seal
#

Again, why play at all if you're going to concede games like that?

blissful olive
#

cause i dont want the headache

umbral seal
#

...headache from what?

#

Using your brain even a tiny bit?

blissful olive
#

if i really wanted to blast and try my hardest every game i could easily be in legend or beyond like everyone else its not that hard lol

#

like getting masters in MD was a lot more cancer than this game

umbral seal
#

Sure, bud. Okay

blissful olive
#

by far

#

and u know that lol

#

honestly this game needs a reward structure to make doing well in ranked worth it

#

like reset ranks every season end of rank u get a bunch of packs and shit like every other card game

umbral seal
#

You do. If you're top 1k or top 10k in MP, you get rewards

mystic tartan
#

yeah and take two too

umbral seal
#

Specifically, for being top 1k, you get seer's globes and 10 packs

mystic tartan
#

like certain ranks

umbral seal
#

But you wouldn't know this

#

Because you've never done it

mystic tartan
#

honestly 1k is a chore lol

blissful olive
#

so u have to be in the peak of it to get anything

mystic tartan
#

i take 5k rewards

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

thats not a good structure lol

red plover
#

do you just have to touch 1k or stay in it?

mystic tartan
#

u just hit gm3 and u'll be in top 5k

#

stay

red plover
#

ah

umbral seal
#

So you have to play a lot daily

#

Which is something I already do in month 1

#

Month 2, I'm usually burnt out

mystic tartan
#

im 100k points rn and rank 2.700 something

red plover
#

yea, I cant imagine playing that much, especially since I play with weaker decks LULE

blissful olive
#

lowkey re do ranks in general

umbral seal
#

It's not that hard if you play a tier 1 deck. Specifically something that wins by or before t10

blissful olive
#

groups are stupid to begin with and having things like A1 AA1 like are you kidding me

red plover
#

yea thats what I mean, If was playing something good I could see myself doing it more than with a t3 deck

umbral seal
#

The system is already there

blissful olive
#

imagine if we just had simple shit

#

bronze silver gold whatever and u got rewards for ranking up

#

in MD u get 100 per rank and 200 on group rank up thats like almost 10 packs right there

#

in sv i think we got like what 200g

#

bruh its just cygames

#

they dunno wtf they doing with this

umbral seal
#

MD is more generous. MD also makes less money than SVWB, based on the last sales report that I saw.

#

So they have no reason to do what MD is doing.

mystic tartan
#

yeah Shadoba is making loads of money cus what they are doing

#

even tho global players are mad the Japanese keep swiping anyway kek cus this game cater towards them

red plover
#

asian players love to be milked apparently LULE

umbral seal
#

Just look at any Korean MMO

red plover
#

exactly

mystic tartan
blissful olive
#

they eat up any KR slop that comes out

#

then it dies n they go next

#

lost ark prob the biggest 1 of that

#

they should just give u a reason to want 2 grind ranked is all

umbral seal
#

I would argue that if a person only wants to play the game for rewards, they shouldn't play at all. Because to me, that usually means they don't enjoy the game.

#

Like sure, I get rewarded for being top 1k MP, but that is not the driving force behind why I play. I don't play for animated sleeves. I don't play for gold. I don't even really play for bragging rights. I just enjoy the game.

#

People who complain about the grind to GM3 also don't enjoy the game. Because the grind to me is nothing.

blissful olive
#

yes and no like every season when i played MD i would go back to master or at least plat

#

cause of how much shit ur getting

#

i like the game but am i gonna sit here for hours on end for what exactly

umbral seal
#

To have fun. The reason anyone should play a game.

#

If I'm not having fun, I log off and do something else

#

Rewards are irrelevant to me.

blissful olive
#

its not enough for most people

umbral seal
#

It's the reason why I skipped the entirety of month 2 heirs despite buying the premium BP. Sure, I lost money. But I wasn't having fun.

#

So I didn't play the game.

#

It's really that simple for me.

blissful olive
#

like the fact that ranking up in this game means nothing is a problem in of itself

#

new player exp is already probably the worst among ocg's but now they get nothing for playing the game too

umbral seal
#

The new player experience definitely sucks right now and it would be wise of them to add incentives for climbing low ranks at some point

#

Might even be at the 1 year anniversary, but they will only do it if they feel they need to do so in order to extract more money long term

#

They're not going to do so out of the goodness of their hearts

blissful olive
#

tbh i dont think you can be a new player and also finish a deck without insane luck

umbral seal
#

@sick oasis What do you think? Considering you're fairly new.

blissful olive
#

but thats also cause the rule of 3 dupes shit they got going on so u cant dust cards

#

like man i fucking wish i could break my cards im never gonna use like these full art kuons

red plover
#

I am still waiting to be able to use my tickets for something else clueless

blissful olive
#

what tickets

red plover
#

ticket exchange

blissful olive
#

oh honey

#

u know thats never happening

red plover
#

I am not actually waiting, Im just memeing

#

I just have no use for them LULE

blissful olive
#

why not

#

u got like 5 of the same 1?

red plover
#

none for the classes I play

#

and I dont care for cosmetics that much to begin with

blissful olive
#

yeah thats just a get rnged moment sadly

#

like me and my kuons

#

lowkey

#

i wish they had missions or events etc that gave take 2 tickets

sick oasis
umbral seal
sick oasis
#

only reason i play card games is cuz of the game itself

umbral seal
#

Anyone else play games for... you know... fun?

blissful olive
#

bro would get in his car drive to work and stay there for 8 hours for free cause its fun

#

u cant gimmie this bs lmao

sick oasis
#

and i have giga experience when it comes to tcg, so even as a new player in SV i have the general idea on what to do

umbral seal
#

I don't enjoy work

sick oasis
#

that's why i giga invested to the deck i chose to play with

blissful olive
#

but when ur paying tho rewards def dont matter

umbral seal
#

But the fact that you're trying to make a comparison between work and a card game

blissful olive
#

so its a moot point

umbral seal
#

Says a lot

blissful olive
#

yeah u can play a game for a game but u also cant say rewards dont matter

umbral seal
#

I'm not saying the rewards don't matter. I'm saying if that's the driving force for why you play, you probably shouldn't play at all. The rewards are a nice bonus. They're not the primary reason for why I play.

#

Pretty simple.

blissful olive
#

well when new sets or events come out like battle fest im all in and can play for hours

#

but outside of that theres no way fella gonna sit down for hours for nothing

#

i superficially need something to work towards

#

wtf auto correct

umbral seal
#

You say "for nothing", when realistically, playing any game ever is "for nothing". There are far more productive things anyone could be doing IRL instead of playing a video game.

blissful olive
#

yeah but its not the same thing as like

#

grinding out some shit in an mmo and u get whatever it is and u feel great about it

#

like if i grinded to legend or whatever in this game what do i actually have to show for it besides ''' i did it ''

#

this isnt just a me thing either like most games nearly every player is reward driven they playing to get something

#

the game should be fun on top of that

umbral seal
#

If you're saying there should be a more permanent reward for reaching & staying in Beyond, I would agree with that.

blissful olive
#

like if they were giving out idk 20 packs maybe more idk for the next set if u hit X rank id be on all day doing this shit and playing better

umbral seal
#

Currently, special titles are gated by the Grand Prix and those are very RNG-heavy even if you're playing a t1 deck.

#

So a special title for reaching & staying in Beyond would satisfy me, personally.

#

Packs would mean less to me since I can already get everything I want on day 1. Special titles are rare.

blissful olive
#

most do both but yeah

#

i feel like the games economy and new player exp would instantly improve if ranks just reset each season with rewards

#

but cygames wont do any QoL stuff probs unless they losing hella money which idk if something like that happened in sv1

#

afaik JP is just carrying right now

umbral seal
#

These crystallize cards are looking very good right now.

blissful olive
#

that seems stupid

#

like 1 xtal to throw it down still

#

should be a bit more for its power scaling

#

dont think we saw the 2nd lego also yet

umbral seal
#

Both Haven legendaries have been revealed already

#

Same for Dragon

blissful olive
#

dont remember the 2nd

#

just breasts

blissful olive
#

oh right the fairy

umbral seal
#

Likely going to be a way to OTK post-lyantoth, meaning a turn 9 kill going 2nd is within the realm of possibility.

#

Should be able to compete with egg portal if they have good defensive tools + healing.

blissful olive
#

are u gonna buy the leader

umbral seal
#

Probably. She's hot. SHRUGGERS

blissful olive
#

i think i wont be lucky ever again since i got unkei on a single

umbral seal
#

I didn't care for Unkei or Imari at all. Especially Imari.

#

She can die in a ditch along with Filene 🚮

blissful olive
#

imari i dont like ya

#

unkei is a good leader tho

umbral seal
#

She seems good, but not to the point where I want to swipe for her.

blissful olive
#

yeah ofc i would never

#

500 bucks is insane

umbral seal
#

There hasn't been a portal nor sword leader I've wanted to really get yet. I pulled 2 beel's just by sheer luck.

#

I only intentionally swiped for Galm, Fediel, Fern & Frieren

#

I guess I also swiped on release, and thankfully the lucky chest gave me Daria (alt art)

blissful olive
#

since this is JP time im guessing we get set sometime tmr night

umbral seal
#

Probably.

mystic tartan
#

i will someday get Unkei

mystic tartan
#

Destroyer of Thirst
5-Cost Abysscraft Follower

Fanfare: Select an allied follower on the field. Destroy it and evolve this follower.

When this follower evolves, summon a Bat and evolve it.

#

this looks good

mystic tartan
#

Enhance Sword kek

#

man this looks like evo sword patch

#

loot got nothing

#

sword lego is bad ngl

mystic tartan
#

oh nvm that yidmera can cook

#

but need to evolve

umbral seal
#

Evo Forest is actually looking really good with the new cards

#

I think mixing in this enhance support with evo sword will be a bit difficult but it's possible. Golden Knight is an enhance but it's late.

#

Armes is a very hard handcheck that portal doesn't have good ways to deal with.

#

He can also be played 6 times if you run 3 of him and yearnful necromancer

#

Basically, you should try to save your last super evo at all costs until abyss uses theirs

mystic tartan
#

Discard Dragon looks fun

blissful olive
#

nodders

umbral seal
#

I'm primarily looking forward to testing out Forest again. Curious about enhance sword. I think Amulet Haven will be one of the strongest day 1 decks.

#

Building it is very straightforward and lyanthoth puts the game on a very short clock

blissful olive
#

did they already show off the rest of the cards

blissful olive
#

dang this nice

#

yeah evo forest getting nice stuff

#

enhance sword doesnt seem very good

mystic tartan
#

Yeah

#

No game changing shit

umbral seal
#

I'll be experimenting with it.

#

Yidmetra's faith being 5 means you can, on average, activate the effect twice per game. 3 times at most. This would put Albert at a 6/8 before evos

#

He would be 18 damage with SEVO. A full otk with boots.

#

This is not even bringing up the fact that Noel's enhance 8 pushes damage, heals you and clears most boards

#

Do y'all need everyone else to think for you?

blissful olive
#

the legos just dont seem good at all

#

the +1+1 might be alright if u can constantly flood the board or something but the other guy just seems awful

#

this guy coulda been cool but not for 8 he'll be a good take 2 card prob

#

this MIGHT be good

#

jesus yeah haven looks fucked up

#

everything they have has like fucking rush bane ward or all 3

mystic tartan
#

if only there is no evo req

blissful olive
#

abyss looks kinda dookie butt

#

except the cat that thing is good

#

like what this is shit lmao

#

medusa for 9 but u have to sevo it and it has aura sure

#

but rather run meds atp

mystic tartan
#

also Clash

blissful olive
#

meds was clash too no

#

this is just like a wilnas situation u cant remove it u lose this thing u cant crash into potential 13 u lose

#

if i pull him i'll try it but no shot ima craft em

red plover
#

and if you actually manage to kill him, that 3 cost follower can just bring him back LULE

#

it is enhance 8 but still funny

blissful olive
#

which 1

#

problem is u still gotta sevo anyways

red plover
#

the new one for abyss

#

also medusa only has strike, for this guy you have to super evolve or not be affected by abilities to be able to hit him

blissful olive
#

this is prob the dumbest card in the whole set its so stupid lol

red plover
#

its uluon but cooler FeelsGoodMan

blissful olive
#

he cant really end the game tho

#

unless u got lucky a bunch of times lol

red plover
#

him going infinite is the best part

umbral seal
#

Follower strike and clash are not the same

blissful olive
#

clash works on opps turn too right

umbral seal
#

There are outs to Armes but he is, by far, the hardest hand check in the game. Going to run him in evo as an alt win con.

umbral seal
#

Medusa is comically easy to remove

#

Armes is not

blissful olive
#

the point of needing to sevo him is just concerning like hes turn 9

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

theres a lot of instances where u need to use points before hand

#

there is that 1 card that gives back normal evo i think it has a bit of potential

#

since it can clear board too or at least early aggro

umbral seal
#

Evo abyss is actually very good at conserving evos. Their problem has historically been the fact that Belial is too slow even if you find him in the mulligan

#

A pure Armes deck is a meme. Armes in evo is very good.

blissful olive
#

ive won a lot of games with billy but u need like shit to be almost perfect

#

the cat tho is super good id say

umbral seal
#

Belial is too slow even against eggs. I'm usually a turn too late

#

Portal has the fewest outs to Armes

blissful olive
#

they cant imari bullshit him yeah

#

are u gonna play ur evo deck now but take out billy or something

umbral seal
#

No, I'd just run both. Belial functions as a board clear as well.

#

I don't think I'd have room for 3x Armes. Probably 2. Unsure.

#

I'll experiment.

#

Probably cut Sandy to 1.

#

I already was doing that when I was doing the 17 dmg combo with Laura

blissful olive
#

abyss's strongest soldier

umbral seal
#

This Merp person seems like a dumbass

blissful olive
#

abyss really does need a good 2 drop tho

#

i might try the 2/2 draw 1 LW

red plover
#

that 7 cost steal seems pretty decent too no? HmmTea

umbral seal
#

Stealing an evo Erntz doesn't stop you from dying to follow up

#

Unless stealing it gives you lethal on that turn

red plover
#

stealing a finisher is gonna feel so good though LULE

cursive crypt
#

is forest good yet

umbral seal
#

Every other archetype basically got nothing

#

Do I think it'll be tier 1? No. Not even sure it'll be t2 but we'll see.

cursive crypt
#

i'll take a look at the cards later

blissful olive
#

forest is looking much better BUT

cursive crypt
#

i do like evo forest

cursive crypt
#

ye ik

blissful olive
#

im hoping discard works out

umbral seal
#

Discard will be good. It'll operate as a more aggressive storm deck.

#

I'm not sure if it'll be t1, though.

blissful olive
#

im sure fan is coming back

umbral seal
#

Well, yeah, it'd be dumb to not run fan.

blissful olive
#

i dont think i would run lux tho

umbral seal
#

Definitely running Yube.

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

yeah its just not enough imo

umbral seal
#

Always been a shit card.

blissful olive
#

id guess fennie has to go

#

dont think shes gonna fit well into that

umbral seal
#

Fennie does not fit in discard at all, lol.

blissful olive
#

yeah

umbral seal
#

There's massive anti synergy there

blissful olive
#

i just wanna make sure im still running shit like erntz

umbral seal
#

Probably but not at 3.

blissful olive
#

hes just 2 good

#

id go down to 2 sure but not 1

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

give em a alt art with big honkers

blissful olive
#

shoulda given us that

umbral seal
#

If they sell that shit in the shop, I'm swiping

#

Without question

blissful olive
#

the shop is honestly lacking in general

#

we have like the battle fest art and eudie for 100 bucks

mystic tartan
#

yeah if Sword is not that great aka its just loot im probably playing dragon mostly

#

man reddit is dumb

#

they fucking have sword bias kek

umbral seal
#

I mean, no shit. It's the easiest craft to play.

#

Maybe dragon is easier.

#

Although I'm curious what comment you saw to make you say that.

mystic tartan
#

i said both sword lego are nothing special

#

honestly if Yidmera doesnt need an evo i might change that kek

blissful olive
#

yeah if sword is only loot which it looks like it is

#

i wont play it very much

mystic tartan
#

loot gonna still be strong

blissful olive
#

yep

#

i just played it a shit load recently so im kinda done with it for now

mystic tartan
#

well discard dragon it is

blissful olive
#

yerp

umbral seal
mystic tartan
#

i expect more

#

but nah

#

its nothing special

umbral seal
#

You expect powercreep to a deck that's been t1 since its inception. The devs didn't print loot support for a reason.

#

Same way they haven't printed roach support since set 2

mystic tartan
#

nah i dont need another loot cards
just expecting more for the so called legos with this new archetype

#

like that 6pp is not that great ICANTLOLW

#

his sevo is mid af

#

this shit reeks of board flood

umbral seal
#

The SEVO is mediocre but I see him as an Amalia replacement. And Amalia is already a very game-winning card in evo sword. I can tell you haven't played anything except loot very much.

mystic tartan
#

like zirconia moment if u cant clear then u dead DeadgeLaugh i dont like playing like that personally

#

well this shit aint surpassing loot so why would i even bother ICANTLOLW i like to hit face is my way of having fun

umbral seal
#

Terrible argument. That's like saying why play anything that isn't a tier 1 deck. That level of argumentation is why you received pushback on reddit.

mystic tartan
#

?

#

what ?

#

both lego is nothing special and i stand by it lmao

#

compared to the others

#

🥱

umbral seal
#

You don't see how saying "this shit ain't surpassing loot so why bother" is similar to saying "why play anything that isn't tier 1?"

#

Board floord decks are not popular but they are very viable.

mystic tartan
#

yeah skip

#

probably trying for a bit

#

im more interested in discard dragon

#

especially cus i like the lego

#

will probably try abyss or forest

#

i'll just watch my streamer play it tho he will eventually back into loot

blissful olive
#

the buffer has potential

#

but the other sword lego is fucking ass

#

hol up

#

who tf is ur streamer

mystic tartan
#

a jp guy

#

he plays sword most of the time

#

like has almost 10k wins on it

blissful olive
#

o i think i seen him b4 ye

mystic tartan
#

i matched him once

#

he got 3 zirconia in a row

#

i dont have clear

blissful olive
#

lol thats how it goes

#

zirc can just outright win the game if not checked

mystic tartan
#

yep

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

the 6 drop

#

like hes just not that good

#

like borderline bad even

umbral seal
#

That would be Noel, and I've already explained how you would use him: as an Amalia replacement. Enhance Sword would essentially be midrange sword. Except instead of playing Amalia, you play Noel instead to push your faith count up.

red plover
#

is enhance an additional effect or does it replace the normal one? I forgot HmmTea

mystic tartan
#

replace

#

oh

#

additional

#

i think

blissful olive
#

whatever the ehance is is the whole eff

mystic tartan
#

yeah nvm

#

whatever the description tells

red plover
#

I c, thanks

mystic tartan
#

like golden knight enhance

red plover
#

ah true

mystic tartan
red plover
#

to be fair, the text says "instead" though LULE

mystic tartan
#

well LULE

blissful olive
#

do we know what time set is out

mystic tartan
#

10more hours

blissful olive
#

hmm

#

damn that sucks

#

i wanted to order food or something while making decks and opening packs n shit

#

but everythin gon be closed

umbral seal
#

Again, won't be a top tier deck. Obviously. Should be decent, though. Will refine more after the patch.

blissful olive
#

that 3/2 was a real shit head lol

#

rose

umbral seal
#

I don't like Rose in general, but the purpose is to avoid situations where Yidmetra is in the bottom half of your deck

mystic tartan
#

not that shit anymore cus u can pull Yidmera with it on enhance

umbral seal
#

Could make it guaranteed by cutting the soldiers but I think the soldiers are necessary for early board presence

#

Knightly Ardor is there because you want to use evos for Zirc but not use SEVO for Yid

mystic tartan
#

yeah that evo req

umbral seal
#

I find it funny how Sham Nacha doesn't have an evo requirement, while Yid does

mystic tartan
umbral seal
#

Anyway, time to theorycraft Abyss

red plover
#

@umbral seal when you enhance noel with 7 or 8, do you get both the fanfare soldier and the enhance one, or just one? FeelsDankMan

mystic tartan
#

pretty sure just one

red plover
#

most of the other enhance effects say instead though HmmTea

mystic tartan
#

yeah this one doesnt have instead

red plover
#

like if you enhance blinding faith, you both get the normal effect and the enhance stuff

mystic tartan
#

oh yeah

#

well idk kek

red plover
#

same LULE

mystic tartan
#

wording man

#

so 2 fearless soldier maybe

#

if enhance

red plover
#

yea, getting 2 soldiers with those effects seems pretty decent

mystic tartan
#

alright so im wrong if that happens

blissful olive
#

if its just one is straight ass

umbral seal
#

It's not one.

#

You get 3 on enhance 8

blissful olive
#

i would iamgine so

red plover
#

oh, didnt know multiple enhances stacked as well

umbral seal
#

That's why I keep calling him an Amalia replacement

red plover
#

thats really good then

umbral seal
#

If it was only 1 soldier, then yes, it's trash

blissful olive
#

hes not better than amalia which is crazy

#

wards rush +1+1 on everything he dont come close

umbral seal
#

I've won a lot of games like that with EVO sword

red plover
#

bane drain and storm does give you a lot of options though

umbral seal
#

Noel is worse in the sense that he won't ever win the game on the spot like that, but he has synergy with yidmetra, can stabilize and can push damage with the storm unit

mystic tartan
#

yeah board flood it up

blissful olive
#

thats lowkey my fear with armes lol

#

hold this 13/13 aura

#

ok bane i win

red plover
#

bane doesnt work on him

mystic tartan
#

no wonder i thought u only get 1

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

wdym he has aura

mystic tartan
#

thats why i said its mid af

blissful olive
#

thats just not target

red plover
#

he cant be destroyed by abilities

umbral seal
mystic tartan
#

i bane

blissful olive
#

oh i thought that was saying the target

umbral seal
#

Like if you use bane on Axia or Lishenna, they don't die either

#

Same concept

blissful olive
#

then i guess only haven can fake reliably get rid of him cause torment

umbral seal
mystic tartan
#

yeah u gotta waste sevo usually

red plover
#

every other class is gonna struggle a lot trying to clear him LULE

blissful olive
#

if they have to clear him tho

#

that late in the game high chance u can go face a lot of the time

red plover
#

well if you dont you lose the next turn

#

unless you can lethal yourself

umbral seal
#

So can loot

blissful olive
#

like dragon wouldnt have that hard a time id guess

umbral seal
#

Not every deck on ladder will be dragon & sword

#

(but I suspect they'll be very popular)

blissful olive
#

dragon absolutely

mystic tartan
blissful olive
#

rune looks like the most concerning one so far

#

like the entire thing is spamming the 1/1

mystic tartan
#

imagine if he has ward sheeesh

red plover
umbral seal
#

The shymm gimmick is the one I'm truly not sold on

mystic tartan
umbral seal
#

Mostly because the pay-off is too RNG

#

It's kind of a meme. More so than Shakdoh

#

Hm... what should I build next...

#

Forest?

#

Even Sathanid doesn't require an evo

#

I don't understand why Yid does

mystic tartan
#

me neither

red plover
#

well, shes the only one that requires 5 faith instead

mystic tartan
#

i mean u can only add that faith if u enhance starting 3pp
Well u have Yid token only 1pp

umbral seal
#

The new 4 drop does it the easiest by giving you two enhances on turn 6

mystic tartan
#

yeah its difficult

#

so im kinda confused by that decision

#

cus u want ur evo

#

on zirconia or something

red plover
#

she gives the easiest enhance card at least

umbral seal
#

You also have to run Zirconia because Serenity's Shield is a toothless card without her

#

IMO, anyway

mystic tartan
#

if u have 2 in hand its fine

red plover
#

yea, its definitely tricky

red plover
#

oh, you mean playing the soldier you get from her as well?

blissful olive
#

enhance is prob the hardest thing to stack in the game

#

cuz the cards all cost so much

#

which makes me wonder why the faith effects arnt better

umbral seal
#

So I do understand their caution

#

I just don't think giving Yid an evo cost was the way to do it

blissful olive
#

for her at least its only 5 faith

umbral seal
#

Thought about the 5 cost that gets discounted on evo but I'd hate to draw that late.

blissful olive
#

surely forest will be good this time

umbral seal
#

It's not going to be t1

#

But it'll be better than it was before

blissful olive
#

t1 is gonna be fukin

#

portal and sword for sure

umbral seal
#

Maybe. Portal honestly did not get much this set. Imari is still broken, though.

blissful olive
#

yeah but even if they got literally nothing

#

imari deck is T1 anyways

umbral seal
#

I wouldn't count on that because ER Rune was, by most people's account, the best deck in Skybound. Got nothing next set and it was noticeable with how much less it got played.

#

They got nothing again this set, so I expect it to be even less popular.

blissful olive
#

im saying no matter what happens that deck is still gonna be insane

umbral seal
#

It really depends on how the meta shakes out. If Armes is super prevalent on the ladder, egg portal is going to be significantly less popular.

#

Puppet portal, imo, is not that good in comparison. It's where I got the most of my wins after Legendary.

red plover
#

do they even have anything that can out armes

umbral seal
#

Evo Sword shits on it

blissful olive
#

i feel like dragon and haven will be the only 2 that dont struggle on armes

#

cause dragon always ahs fat creatures to crash

umbral seal
#

They have no other outs.

red plover
#

ah right

umbral seal
#

I guess technically, you could say flowering artisan, proc 3 times and SEVO but like...

#

That's super specific and probably unreliable lol.

#

Victoria SEVO would be the most reliable, so eggs would have to start making room for 3x Zwei if Armes is meta

#

Was going to theorycraft Amulet Haven but @red plover can do that for me

red plover
#

I dont make decks, Im too FeelsDankMan for that LULE

umbral seal
#

It ain't hard, just read cards and look for synergies SHRUGGERS

#

I know card game players hate reading though

red plover
#

everytime I tried making decks they just sucked tbh, thats why I just netdeck instead

#

I usually just play whatever godofhaven makes LULE

#

the skullfane plays are gonna be great though FeelsGoodMan

#

rodeo gonna be a lot of fun as well

#

especially if you can skullfane after

blissful olive
#

thats what i do

#

net deck and tweak what i dont like

red plover
#

I almost never tweak because I just figure the people making these decks are just smarter then me LULE

mystic tartan
#

yeah i just tweak some dude

blissful olive
#

i keep 1 for 1 copy then copy the deck and do w/e i want with it

umbral seal
#

Not a bad month, except for Cygames not nerfing Imari/Dewdrop. lacWeird

#

Was trying out the Institute of Truth/Odin OTK memes for awhile. Funny when it worked but too flawed. Deadge

blissful olive
#

this is my issue with the friren leaders right here

#

look at gal and then look how insanely plain fern or stark is

umbral seal
#

I mean, that's how they're designed in the actual show. Did you want Cygames to add more to them or something?

#

Then people would complain about the collab not being faithful to the original work.

#

Like, I technically agree with your argument but that's not on Cygames.

red plover
#

its gonna get worse with more collabs in the future having more different art styles and such

blissful olive
#

it has to do with the art style im guessing

#

but they could have done more like this is the kinda leader that u would pay 10 bucks in shop for not 500

mystic tartan
#

u need 2100+ CR for beyond Sword Deadge

umbral seal
#

They gave them custom evo-animations and a background, something non-ticket leaders don't have. Even the skybound leaders that aren't Beel or Belial only have custom borders. They have no background on evo and no custom evo

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

u got like 10 more hours

mystic tartan
#

people are too good

blissful olive
#

get back in here samurai

#

then be better

#

i believe in you

umbral seal
#

Most games in high CR are really decided by draws, since no one makes critical errors

#

Usually.

#

Every time I play on set release, I encounter a lot of people making basic mistakes

#

Which is part of why I can climb so quickly.

mystic tartan
#

im stuck in 2k

blissful olive
#

how much do u lose per game

mystic tartan
#

it depends

umbral seal
blissful olive
#

in general

#

like another 2k person

mystic tartan
#

15

#

usually

umbral seal
#

You generally lose around 15 CR if you lose to someone similarly rated

mystic tartan
#

if similar cr

umbral seal
#

If you lose to someone lower rated

#

You can lose as much as 24 CR

blissful olive
#

what about gain? about the same?

umbral seal
#

If you face someone like, 100 CR above you, I've seen gains of 22 CR

#

Losses as low as 8 if I lose

#

Everyone above 1850 is pretty good. It really just comes down to the power level of your deck and draw RNG.

blissful olive
#

i dont think ima even be able to get back to rating again lol

#

i got GM once just cause i was kinda close but it takes so much to get back there after resets lol

umbral seal
#

20k MP in one month is really not that hard unless you hate playing the game.

blissful olive
#

it depends on how much im enjoying the deck im playing

umbral seal
#

Generally takes me 2 days just to do that. Don't even have to sacrifice sleep or work. Just a social life. kek

blissful olive
#

like im gonna play a bunch of new set then eventually dwindle back to doing dailies n stuff

umbral seal
#

I also like collecting the animated sleeves. It's why I go so ham in the 1st month.

#

Although I can't say I've liked any of the sleeves except for Blossoming Fate.

umbral seal
#

Honestly missed the fact that bibatii is just a generically good card.

blissful olive
#

it is yeah

#

3/3 on its own is cool but draw 2 is huge

#

but having 4 necros by turn 3 tho chances are not happening

umbral seal
#

You have many other plays besides dropping the cat on 3

#

Having 4 shadows on 3 is not even necessary because you might not even have belial in hand at that point

blissful olive
#

hmm

#

if running both armes and billy thats ur 2 sevo points really and u can only do 1 of each

#

if u trying to win with billy anyways

umbral seal
#

It will depend on the match-up. Armes only needs to come down with SEVO if you need to clear the board or if you're confident that your opponent has no way to clear it from an empty board.

blissful olive
#

i would prob wanna try and fit aragavy in also hes such a good card

umbral seal
#

Deprived Destroyer will clear the same boards that Aragavy can, usually

#

While providing 2 evos

blissful olive
#

yeah u just need to save skeletons

umbral seal
#

Having a skeleton just saves you from spending an evo point

blissful olive
#

well no

#

like

#

u have to sac a monster

umbral seal
#

You have to sack a monster to save an evo point. I know how the card works.

blissful olive
#

ah i see

umbral seal
#

Do I need to post the description?

blissful olive
#

yeah i would def save a skele for that

umbral seal
#

And also, it depends. I would only save a skeleton for destroyer if I don't already have nehan in hand

#

In which case, I'd prioritize combo'ing with Nehan

mystic tartan
#

Armes gonna be so annoying kek

umbral seal
#

Indeed. It's just bad design, imo

#

Still gonna use him, though

unkempt lava
#

Another card game

umbral seal
sick oasis
#

sooo... anything new for spellboost?

umbral seal
#

Nope.

sick oasis
umbral seal
#

Enjoy your crystals

sick oasis
#

guess it's time to switch to lizard gaming and try that discard deck

#

actually nvm i might change to abyss

#

playing armes could be fun

mystic tartan
sick oasis
#

mystic tartan
#

not bad

#

well ill take it

#

i do want kandima but not that much kek

mystic tartan
#

bruh forest is cooking

mystic tartan

blissful olive
#

vanguard is way 2 ass kik

#

if it had a proper platform maybe id try

#

one day cygames will fix its shitty servers

umbral seal
#

Anyone bother trying out my lists?

blissful olive
#

i could

#

i just finished the uhh

#

solo junk for free stuff about to open packs

umbral seal
#

I won't have time to play until later today

blissful olive
#

need to get lvl 40 in BP for leader sux ass man

#

thats what like maybe 3 weeks i guess

#

i didnt know this was also a card on its own lol

umbral seal
#

100 online wins gets you a good chunk of BP pts

#

Speed running the BP is only difficult in month 2

blissful olive
#

bruh just getting shit lmao

umbral seal
#

Because there's no chest event

blissful olive
#

there is no chest event rn no

umbral seal
#

Correct, but give it a few days

#

Chest event has never started day 1 of a set

blissful olive
#

i dont recall them announcing 1

umbral seal
#

Every set has launched with a chest event within a few days

#

It's possible that they don't do one but it's unlikely

blissful olive
#

yeah my packs are cursed this is so ass lmao

umbral seal
#

Omegotep seems to be playable in Dragon (of course)

blissful olive
#

i mean sure but hes a meme

#

i do wanna see him brick a game tho for shits and giggles

umbral seal
#

We'll see if late season Fennie decks will still include him. Personally, I don't think I'm playing Fennie at all this set

blissful olive
#

yeah im mainly on discard unless some insane tech comes up

#

i got 40 more packs hoping i get a few things i can use at least smh

mystic tartan
#

now

#

Lyria is also op on enhance sword

#

this is mine

blissful olive
#

i got fucked so hard

#

this is some bullshit

mystic tartan
#

Rose is very good

blissful olive
#

1 cat 0 armes 1 sagatsu

#

umbral seal
mystic tartan
#

blissful olive
#

well this is about what i expected sorta

#

mystic tartan
#

blissful olive
#

umbral seal
#

I'll think about it. Let me know how your matches go.

mystic tartan
#

heartless strategist and rose is a must i think

#

both powerful on this deck

#

i got crushed by evo forest Cooked

blissful olive
#

hmm only need 14k to finish haven

mystic tartan
#

they got so many new stuffs

blissful olive
#

i was thinking on making evo forest but im missing 2 much stuff

#

need 40k to finish it fuck that lol

#

new abyss does look kinda fun

#

def making discard so my 2nd deck is a toss up on haven or abyss

mystic tartan
#

i only match 1 discard

umbral seal
#

Ordine, how quickly do you get Yid online?

mystic tartan
#

Usually turn 6 or 7
Depends

#

I ditch Fearless knight cus rose can fish him

blissful olive
#

@umbral seal

#

we have a situation

umbral seal
#

It's why I told you it's playable

blissful olive
#

its playable but its also a meme at the same time

#

its almost like oloun or w/e his name is

umbral seal
#

It's rng, of course it's a meme

blissful olive
#

cant wait to see that in competitive lmao

umbral seal
#

Won't see play outside of dragon imo

blissful olive
#

gonna run take 2 i guess

#

need to save vials till fellas drop decklists cause i only have 40k

sick oasis
#

blissful olive
#

mystic tartan
#

yeah evo forest might be tier 1 man

blissful olive
#

#

im just clearing every time and he cant attack me

#

LOLOLOL

mystic tartan
#

red plover
#

deck out for haven in take 2 is pretty common LULE

blissful olive
#

that card is pretty good btw

#

spawns 3 copies 4/4 ward

#

those 1/1 fairy are prob the best thing in forest yet lowkey

#

free evos at end of turn n shit

#

and u get so many like a bunch of 3/3 wards

#

i bet evo forest fucks dragon

mystic tartan
#
