how is that annoying
#Nerf Aichi D3A-1
fresh perch
literally just kill it if you can, ignore it if you cant
it only has 2 attack for 2 op cost
play a fighter
manic rampart
yeah, it's so bad, must be a coincidence that there are two in every single competitive jaggro deck
these comp players, so easily duped into including bad cards in their decks
unbelievable

Because it's a good card, but why is it unfair?

don't nerf it. rotate it

I like how many kredits the opponents wastes in early turns operating the thing

I’d much rather have it thrown into the pool than see it be horribly lobotomized by a nerf
manic rampart
Because it's a good card, but why is it unfair?
Because it's a bomber which upon destruction gives you another bomber with smokescreen. It's a little too good.

Yeah, although opponent doesn't even have to operate it. It just sits there menacingly.

2k 2op Destruction: Add a Aichi D3A-2 into your hand
Current aichi is strong, because you kill it
then the enemy will get a smokescreen bomber on his support line without paying extra cost
But also weak, because supply shortage or any bigger fighter would just make it worthless

Eh, I’m a believer in the meat grinder. It slows your opponent
wise warren
it also slow yourself if you rely on it too much
2k for 2 dmg, if you got no support

I'm not saying it's bad, I'm saying people overstate how big of a threat it is
it let's them what, pay 2k to deal 2 damage to a unit
(assuming you don't have a fighter protecting)
wise warren
Probably because of its synergy with Audacity
fresh perch
it's a pretty generic bomber, people just need to get used to dealing with it in a way that doesn't give the enemy the d3a-2

doing 5 dmg in T3

I think patrol being rotated out is responsible for a lot of this frustration

The thing is you need to atk or remove it 2 time to remove the threat completely
I miss patrol, 1 card to do multiple thing at once

It's not about the unit itself being a threat only (which it is, especially it you're playing an aggro deck yourself and there is an uncontested bomber on the field that will spawn another smokescreened one) , it's about giving jaggro more access to damage beyond guards, giving board clear protection which really should be the downside of the deck. That aspect was also what made it unbearable in brit air.
With the audacity synergy and the damage potential on top of that it's just too much
wise warren
T2 D3A-1, T3 Audacity to land 5 dmg on your guard or bigger unit

Also, the D3A user doesnt need to pay extra cost to slap the bomber to the field
while the 442nd users need to spend 3k to redeploy again
just wonder, why no one said Chaika OP, although it always give your another I-16
neon mural
Because it doesn't bypass guard, have the inherent potential to gain attack and trade for free
wise warren
hm, guess so
Beside, it don't have a system or potential synergy like D3A does
It always only do 2 dmg itself
neon mural
Context matters too which gives a lot of weight to these points previously mentioned
Bypassing guards, trading for free and doing more damage is all jaggro wants
neon mural
All Chaika really wants to do is block aichi 
wise warren
Bypassing guards, trading for free and doing more damage is all jaggro wants
The ability to bypass guard and free-trade become so important when jaggro struggle at that part so much
neon mural
It's also the overall strength of jaggro atm that makes it worse, similar to how good it was in brit air. Even without it being part of the best decks the card is just a notch too good though
fresh perch
I think the aichi has a unique ability and use
having some cards that "break the mold" in each archetype is healthy, I feel

yes same thing with 272nd; aichi is more prevalent in the meta, and 272nd isnt broken per se, but it completely invalidates the iosef stalin as an elite and is in general a bad mechanic
wise warren
272 itself is fine. But IS-2 is just bad, doesn't have blitz or having influential effect like Pershing's HP lock or King Tiger targeting denial
verbal oasis
Right but even the Is-2 is buffed the 272nd is just flat better in all cases cuz it spawns an IS
so the effect of 272 just has to change

Guys, guys, this is a thread about Aichi, the most fair card of them all
