Good thing FaB is now approximately 70% nature-themed by volume with infinite Aria support. :^)

Anyway here's the full splash for the secret insert spoilers for set 20 contained in set 19.
Shadow is getting a new aura that cracks open the banished zone for every single blood debt card! I'm so sad Wizard already got covered during Omens - shadow wizard fucking never.

The answer is supernatural fuckery that isn't really apparent. Failing that, risk of burning down always keeps them interesting.

> FaB is now approximately 70% nature-themed by volume
What a lark. They don't have any concern for ecology, fauna, flora or anything to do with overcoming natural obstacles. But yes, Aria being as big of a piece of the pie as it is adds insult to injury that the real law of the wild, the Savage Lands, will never ever happen at this rate.

>When was the last time you played a card game outside?
Last summer my LGS had accidentally booked 4 tournaments at the same time. They ran out of space so they told us lowly Grand Archive players that if we wanted to run the tournament we'd have to play in the parking lot on some of those white plastic tables with no chairs. As an apology they waived the entry fee and gave us all a free drink.
Honestly it was a good time. An ice cream truck drove by in the middle of round 2 and we all agreed on a 10 minute treat break. I ended up taking 4th place out of 12 people, highest I ever placed in that game.

So for the discussion in the last thread, apparently we know a little more about Usurp, it will be a keyword featured in the next set IAR. This is also implying there's more rune whatevers to be spoiled for the next set, 6 more I believe between the first and second one that's been revealed. Our new DEMON non hero will feature an adult version with, you guessed it, 66hp. Yeah, that combined with the shadow talent surely won't unleash hell on FAB like his predecessor before him. Nope!

what's your favorite take on cards like gear and runes that attach to other cards? do you prefer the sort that throws everything away as one big thing (making removal more card-efficient the more you put into a single thing) or do you prefer it when it falls off as soon as whatever it's attached to leaves play, letting you re-attach it to other shit?

>>98095583
It's a business/industrial themed card game where you each start with 20 capital and are racing to 50. Capital is what you use to pay the cost for your cards with the goal being to invest in cards that help you build an income. While racing to 50 you may also play cards that trip your opponent up giving it a level of interaction you wouldn't expect.
50 cards in a deck, whatever color combination you want. You can play any card from a color as long as you have a single resource of that color in play. Resources are not something you tap but act as a starting point for your infrastructure which provides spaces for your productions
I plan on launching a youtube channel here in the coming weeks, including a video series on building a prototype production line to do in house booster packing

Shadow at least has a robust concept in banish manipulation and self inflicted damage.
If they build out the Shadow pool in a way that gives it a strong identity, then I'm happy. If the set is just 3-5 heroes and their ultra rigid archetype cards with no enduring relevance, then it sucks.
I'm tired of seeing the game designed as a series of hero-modules.

I will die on this hill: Rosetta and Superslam are the only talent sets with a healthy, broad-minded design philosophy that bothers to develop type identities over individual decks.

What a delectably evil way of creating artificial hype for the set for no reason! I'm curious to see if the playersbase will demonstrate enough self-control to not overbuy this set for such a reason.
The funny thing about it is that this is actually very bad for investorfags. Chase cards confirmed to be invalidated in three months defeat the entire purpose of hoarding boxes.

>agree that it's lame, because the point system incentivized bringing in and teaching new players and drove sales of the latest set by giving challenges that would require the newer cards
>owner offers that if I could propose a suitable new points system for upcoming set, he'd consider running it

So yeah, I'm thinking of doing this, if only for fun (and hopefully attract more players for league).
The old point system worked as follows:
>players can earn up to 10 points per league event
>their points are added up until the end of each 'season' (typically from the release of a new set until the following set)
>the players get rewards distributed based on their score total for the season
>win a 2 of 3 match : 2 points
>lose a 2 of 3 match: 1 point
>sign up for the league season: 1 point for that day
>bring a friend : 1 point
>teach a new player how to play: 2 points
>wear an article of Disney related paraphernalia (tattoos and Lorcana pins count, providing that they're visible): 1 point
>each new set would have 6-8 themed 'achievements' that would each earn you 1 point, often requiring a player to make new decks to meet the criteria, for example, one set required you to have 3 members of the Madrigal family at the Casa Madrigal location at the same time. Most achievements could be done using common and uncommon cards from the new set.

Anyhow, I'm looking forward to trying to write these achievements. Does anyone else have an Lcs that does anything similar, Lorcana or otherwise?

i kinda hate that one piece pushed more companies to make tcgs.... the big 3 should always and forever be ygo/mtg/pkmn. all these new tcgs are disgusting cash grabs and it pisses me off.

Funny enough lorcana's biggest issue for my city despite its popularity is getting people to locals.

Lots of the 'pro' players just play online only. They don't bother going to locals because its too casual for them and its a waste of time.

Actually, the people I was playing with were saying the same thing... in fact, they were mostly there because they said they were getting TOO used to online play.

>>98100597
>big three
At the lcs I was at, the owner turned away 2 people who were looking for Yu-Gi-Oh, as the guy down the street specialized in it and he didn't carry it. Then, when a family came In looking for Pokémon, he had to tell them how a lot of the stores in the area wouldn't carry it because people kept breaking in to the ones that did. They mostly just dealt in Mtg out of the big 3, and that suited them just fine.

I think it would be funny to have a Mike Wazowski achievement, where you have to gain X amount of lore with Mike W, while his face is covered by a damage token.
The set is said to involve a giant vine that's creating leafy clones of certain characters, so I'm thinking a 'Weed Whacker' achievement where you banish X amount of these plants in a single game.
For certain, Turning Red will have some song-related content that I can work with.
I'll have to keep my eyes open for the leaks as they are revealed. If you guys have any somewhat serious suggestions, I'll be sure to consider them.

>>98101919
The owner only occasionally plays Lorcana, and his wife, who manages the shop, plays MtG instead, so neither really have the time or inclination to learn enough about the upcoming sets to come up with the 'achievements' (which had previously been provided by Ravensburger), but if I put in a little creativity and research, I could potentially boost the player count and variety of decks I can play against, and they'd get a boost in revenue. It's kind of win/win. I see it as an excuse to keep up with the latest card leaks, and they might get more money/players (assuming this experiment works).

And he would be right. Not the only reason, but it stopped a lot of casuals from bothering and the casuals are your local scene. Comp players just play online forever. Also local prizing packs are just straight up worse than pins. They can be better if Lorcana prints actual meta/desired cards in there but they don't last I checked.
It's been a while since I played Lorcana cause it died at my locals so I may be wrong on some of the more up to date things.

Just had my fourth game of Gwent today. It's the self contained box so not really a TCG but it's such a tight gameplay that make you think "is it safe to end this round now?". So good.

Made me wander if there was a way to salvage the Pokemon card game. It took the easy road of NotMTG when it could have been so much more. I think allowing only 6 different Pokemons in your deck (they start on your belt though) would have been a bold but tone accurate move. Getting ride of the mana mechanism and have PP limited attacks instead would have been nice too. What do you think?

It's going to be DOA regardless. No meaningful IP attached, no major publisher means unlikely to be stocked by LGS, way too much text, boring looking cards.

>>98100350
Lorcana meta has barely changed in the last three sets. It's still Dumbo-driven Purple/Blue or Purple/Steel, Dogs, and Blue/Green control, and most of those decks are unchanged since Fabled.

Rotation was too soon and they gave us an even worse meta than pre-rotation. I've lost my appetite for the game desu. I'll probably go to the set champs at my LGS because I've got a blue green deck already built, but I'm not really jazzed up about another year of Dumbo decks, with nothing else having come out this last year that has even threatened to compete with it.

Toys is a complete bust, so unless they reprint daisy + be prepared in set 13 I don't see how anything else will be worth playing but Purple/X.

>>98106291
Really? The folks at my Lgs were saying mostly the opposite, that they're rarely using Dumbo any more and that Toys were great. I'm still planning to build a toy deck, personally. Anyhow, there's only a month and a half left before next rotation, and I'm looking forward to seeing how the changes work out.

>>98106228

Show me a successful new game with a paragraph of text or with zero IP attachment. There are plenty of dead games without, and even some with one or both factors.

>>98106978
Sorcery and Elestrals both have pretty simple rule boxes. Elestrals is moving more complex, but they didn't have that kind of length for the first several sets. Both are also pretty hard carried by the art.

Still, those are examples. So maybe the real problem is this one looks generic, has too many words set 1, and also doesn't have anything to carry it.

Maybe I'll be wrong, and if so I'll be happy to sleeve up a deck for locals. But I'd not count on it. Especially if their best marketing is "raised 2x the lowball number we put on Kickstarter, that will surely be insufficient to fund printing."

>>98106971

It's the original game but with sensible deck building options (no more than 2 medic and spy, this kind of thing). That and adding special powers to low value card was all it ever took to make it tabletop ready honestly.

>capitalism TCG
Was doing some playtesting between my planned starter decks and gathered some data. Without the interaction that other cards in the set offers, the game plays very much like a drag race. With little restrictions on what cards can be played each player can dump as many cards as possible in to their field and then it becomes a matter of coasting to the finish. Cards in the set will allow you to play things later in the game for defense, but as far as the starters are go it's an interesting observation
Maybe someone more math inclined will see this and determine there is or isn't even a game here

the yellow profit start to rise after some turn and add nothing the start of the play. maybe you shouldn't make it this way because maybe the player playing will have no benefits and will lose the game because the other deck already build a profit at the start of the game. I'm not sure if I understood well your game. tell me if I'm wrong. I tried to help, don't know if this help

>>98109455
>because maybe the player playing will have no benefits and will lose the game because the other deck already build a profit at the start of the game
I understand what you're saying and that is the case in these starter deck games where there is little interaction or ability to slow down profit. In the full set you would have access to removal cards that could cause them to lose capital they've invested and slow them down.
I'll be collecting more data as I get more testing done for sure

>>98109273
Maybe consider adding in a few of the offense and defense options into the starters? Usually the early starter decks of a tcg determine the base experience of the entire game going forward, and the first set expands the experience of the starter decks by letting players customize their decks and choosing whether to pursue a particular existing game plan or archetype, instead of introducing new ones or new game mechanics. So if the starter decks are missing any mechanics, there is a chance players could get turned off of the game by the starter decks without realizing the full game plays differently.

>>98109402
That foiling definitely looks like garbage.

Yea I might have to make offensive cards more common. Right now outright Production removal is only 1% of the set 1 cards, and there are no ways to remove an opponents infrastructure or resource cards.
I may be leaning too far in to the solitaire elements of the game in an effort to prevent the meta from becoming shutting down anybody attempting to focus on income and turning the game in to a slog

>>98109479
did you already test your cards with someone?

>>98109627
I've tested it with a couple of people but they're not really TCG types though they enjoy it when they play and support its creation (as friends do). During those games there were some very close ones including a game where the one card that could pull of the win was drawn which encouraged me that there is a game here.
Now that I have tabletop simulator it allows me to do much better playtesting, and I've only just now started actually collecting the data

Which is fine if that's what you want the game to be, but if it's an important enough strategy that will become central to every deck going forward, then maybe limiting them to the randomized part of the product isn't a good idea. Keep it low power if you must though

The Buggy deck is very cheap. A starter deck, some cent cards and maybe a couple of 5 euro cards at most is what it'll need.

Thanks for the Beta suggestion bros. I was on the fence because I like that the booster box for Gothic doubles as a high quality storage box. Beta's looking pretty good from what I've seen so far, but I think they may have pushed water synergies a little too much. I've avoided spoiling the set for myself till now, so perhaps it isn't as pervasive in the wild as I think it might be. I think I'll throw together a pirate themed deck, and see how it plays

>>98110399
>the tutorial are actively holding me back.
Well good news, because they made Trailblazers as an alternative to Rangers for people with zero attention span and lack of long term goals needed to complete a campaign. Seriously, this was produced because they were hearing too often that people bought the card game, love everything about it, but are too fucking lazy to actually play it and finish the story. Unironically check out trailblazers, it will be more your speed.

There's some videos out about it now that the kickstarter has launched, I'm still working my way through the Team Cov one presently. Personally, and I'm going to be real with you, I massively prefer Rangers to what I'm seeing here. It's not that this is bad, it's that this is a completely different experience. They're going huge scope with stuff being tracked by tokens rather than building a beautiful board-state with the Rangers card game. I'm personally going to think twice if I really want this, but I do really enjoy the project so far and thing they do wonderful work.

There is a chance as you can see in the upper right they've changed the number to a 2 rather than the 1 cards have been getting. The issue being however then is that it would mean a yearly block system currently. Instead of doing something like from X set to Y set with same stipulation on starter decks. Maybe if the reprint bundle also goes ahead with updating some to being in new year sections it could work out, but currently it'd be better off to hope for them to make banlists that are not nothingburgers

>>98111693
>too fucking lazy to actually play it and finish the story
that's because it's duller than watching paint dry.
there's a reason when anyone here brings up EBG here all they care about is Hubworld, it's because that's an actual game. Rangers somehow manages to be a co-op that's even more braindead and boring than marvel champions.

>>98112126
>There is a chance as you can see in the upper right they've changed the number to a 2 rather than the 1 cards have been getting
This means literally nothing. All Bandai games do this but only One Piece out of all their games is doing rotation.

Not really, no. There's a living breathing world to step foot through, you can help denizens and study exotic wildlife. Do you find hiking and observing animals duller than paint drying?
>anyone here brings up EBG here all they care about is Hubworld, it's because that's an actual game.
Saying something isn't a game when it actually is a very detailed and robust role playing game doesn't make it true. That's not actual criticism so much as school yard japing
>Rangers somehow manages to be a co-op that's even more braindead and boring than marvel champions.
What is braindead about it? You have to manage energy, soothe fatigue and injuries, equip and assortment of gadgets to aid you in your challenges. There's lots of decisions to be made on your turn, and pushing your luck with the challenge deck comes with tricks of its own. Not to mention that days can be as long as you have the cards and endurance to meet them. The systems in Rangers are robust and actually can support quite a lot of complex scenarios, with what has been put out really only demonstrating the tip of the iceberg. It feels like a very clever roleplaying experience in card form. None of that is dull to people who like those things.

All of what you will be getting up to in Ranger will be on offer in Trailblazer, but the systems have been watered down and gamified to keep things running buttery smooth. I am glad others get their less heady game but I'll continue to play Rangers over this and enjoy a much longer form narrative while roleplaying the characters that I dream up.

>"you MUST be black!"

Bitch, this is my story. I could be a talking cat for all you know.

Haven't gotten all of the way through the video to comprehend what's up with Trailblazers, but you can see the over simplification of the cards as they line up 1 to 1. This card functions similarly, but what it's missing is uses outside of being a scout goggle (the contributing symbol on the left) as well as more nuanced archetyping as well as equipment complexity. In the new game you just get three equipment slots per character, many of them have been single use only. So not tracking how complex the item is or having typing to key off of future card effect combos is understandable but still demonstrates what we're losing in translation.

>>98113293
For real, though, that's unfortunate. The most appealing part of EBR was the light simulation elements.
It's still a white extinction fantasy, and fuck you for going along with that.

I thought word on the street was that they're going to do a revised style set with cards from all of the existing sets. So, I was thinking of waiting for that until I pick up singles. And worst case is if card prices go crazy for a long time, I could sell one of my higher value cards for a few decks

How much are these worth? Cardmarket out right refused to upload them, which is very disappointing. I don't want to open one and don't know how much to sell it for.
I also wonder about the prices of the Gem pack variants.

>>98114920
They're probably worth barely anything right now because nobody actually chases or hoards FaB singles. Not in any meaningful numbers, at least.
FaB has always been obsessed with individual card populations (on a per-printing basis, that is. Let's sidestep the shitshow that was PEN), so I don't doubt they're relatively scarce, but that doesn't mean shit when the demand isn't there.

These things probably can't find a settled price until 1 month AFTER the next set comes out.

In addition: If you're one of the 3 people who actually wants to collect the rare cards from this game. Make sure you are targeting heroes as they rotate out. When the game finally does end this shit is going to be nearly impossible to track down.

>>98114985
They are marvel rarity though. Surely that alone puts them in the 100 euros plus range.

>>98115010
I know that you know that's not how prices work, We can't just point to something like marvel sigils for a clear anchor.
These are unusual because we have no way of evaluating their playability right now, so the baseline demand for "bling my deck" isn't really in play, and it won't be for quite some time.

>>98114638
>With this reveal can we accept EBR is at best just a board game that gets expansions and not a /acg/

Actually this is definitive proof Rangers absolutely is a card game, because they are going out of their way to water it down and turn it into a feel good every time board game experience for the lazy masses. Neysayers eternally blown the fuck out, sorry.

>>98115181
Fair enough. We also don't know their upcoming rarity in the next set. In SEA the amulets were all majestic rarity, but this time they might just be rare. They were also mass printed in the Gem packs.
The intent might be more on the mass availablity's side this time. The shadow hero will still hold its price though.

So Net Runner, Ashes, Marvel Champions, Lord of the Rings, Arkham Horror and a ton of others aren't card games by this Anon's definition.

>being an EBR fan and seeing this campaign and feeling anything less like you got kicked in the face, they literally couldnt care less about that game as a system
But that's wrong though, and nothing was said about one being dropped over the other. They're actively releasing expansions for Rangers still, there's at least two more of these on the way before they do another crowd fund for their big box expansion plus whatever else they have cooked up. Trailblazers is tandem development, not stealing the team away from Rangers.

Think of Rangers as the Macro level RPG campaign in card form, and Trailblazers as the bird's eye view heroic alternative to introduce people to the setting. They fill different niches, but EBG is banking on the fact this latest campaign will get their world of Earthborne out there more forward leaning so it picks up a broader audience. No one that likes their games is upset by this. They're growing as a company and since Aidalon and Rangers are their *card games* they are now finally branching out into *board games*

>>98115233
So you accept it's a card game, and thus since it isn't big three it is welcomed to be discussed here. Thank you for clarifying that.

A game that people have been sharpening their pitchforks against ever since it was announced in the thread years ago. It's a real card game, you play it as a long form narrative campaign, the systems are a blend of roleplaying and deckbuilder with minor resource management. The story is set in the far future of a post-apocalyptic Colorado, with ruins of the past dotting a flourishing biome among the mountains, rivers and forest. The folks you play from the perspective as are born in an archeology, living underground during the dark times and after centuries have returned to the surface to find that nature has dramatically healed the wounds made by greedy corporations and warmongers. It's a hopeful setting where humanity has collectively vowed to never resort to the self-destructive ways of their forebears, instead dedicating their lives to understanding the earth in its new form and protecting the life that populates the landscapes. We call these folks Rangers, as in Earth Borne Rangers (EBR) from with the title is named.

>>98115442
Cardmarket is the best place for that and a lot of other games too.
But with how steep the shipping costs can get, it's recommended to look for stores near you that deal in singles. They usually offer stock above its price trend, but the quicker and cheaper shipping is something that they can compete with somebody on the other side of the continent.

Not interested in roleplaying games? Fair enough, but it's far from boring. You get to explore the land sandbox style and set your own pace. You can race through territories and only focus down missions if you're not interested in stopping to connect with nature.

Nobody is really hating on EBR (or they weren't, anyway), it's just this is the wrong general. which initially was the response it got, just a polite "wrong general, try bgg". 99% of the backlash is just because of one troll who keeps coming back with variations of
>nuh uh this general has "card" in the name and EBR technically has cards so this is the EBR general now
which is so obviously and intentionally dense I can only assume it's a false flag. if so, it is at least a pretty successful one - that anon has proven so persistent and so toxic that it's permanently poisoned the reputation of earthborne games for basically all of tg. he's probably singlehandedly cost them hundreds of sales.

Very convenient memory lapse you have there. This game got bashed for being hopeslop before it was ever even in anyone's hands.

Not exactly, and I know this because I was the one posting about it in these thread. Ultimately there were someanons being more civil about it, there was a vocal racist troll who couldn't live with seeing the game being discussed here at all.

Bottom line is that the game has a right to be discussed here, like any other card game that qualifies. Some people want to keep making up arbitrary reasons it shouldn't be here but the game is billed as and plays entirely out as a card game.

this suggests a total misunderstanding of how a tg general, or really any interaction with a group of other humans, functions. like sure you have a "right" to post whatever the fuck you want, but you're just screaming into the void. if your goal is actually discussing the game and not trolling, the way to do that is to seek out other people who are interested in the game or already playing it. not trying to shoehorn it into a general where it has no topical overlap or common interests.

OF COURSE NOT. But in the same breath some of my favorite games are full on multiplayer solitaire shitters nor is interaction a metric of how much "game" there actually is.
That said, sour grapes aside (congrats on still making progress)
>With little restrictions on what cards can be played each player can dump as many cards as possible in to their field
That might be the factor that speaks louder than it being a simple race. I'm not a huge fan of restrictions for restrictions sake, but in the absence of interaction - be it from card draw, the cards not being in the actual set, or the player doesn't feel compelled to do so - how much decision making you want the player to still have is something important (imo)

Question for people here:
I kinda don't see the point of collecting booster boxes and putting them in display cases. If you like the art just keep the box after opening it. It just feels like investorfagging. Can I get reasons for why people collect boxes sealed? Aside from just reselling them in the future? It mainly happens in pokemon but it hit the OPTCG scene this year. It's just very weird to me when this wasn't really a thing until investors came flooding in.

Your vision can still be your own despite discussing it with other people. Part of the creative process is taking in feedback and filtering out the useful bits of it.
>OF COURSE NOT. But in the same breath some of my favorite games are full on multiplayer solitaire shitters nor is interaction a metric of how much "game" there actually is.

Thank you for saying that! Believe it or not it is encouraging. Every step of this process is met by my brain saying "why do you think you can make a tcg"
>how much decision making you want the player to still have is something important (imo)
This post actually helped me solve that problem I think. One of the issues is how you can dump everything in a few turns until you're left top decking. Instead of over relying on card draw, I think I figured out a way to ramp it while providing more design space

That I know of: Divine Cross.
Specifically any of the sets based on a visual novel with sex scenes. There will be at least a few cards that are just screencaps of the sex scene but just barely censored, sometimes with areola still very visible, maybe some suggestive fluids.

I'm probably not representative, but I do have a small hoard of boxes from a few games - it's nothing exhaustive. (Wixoss, Keyforge, Magic, FaB, even MetaZoo, for the memes)
For me, I just think they're neat, and I sometimes fantasize about opening them up to play sealed decades from now - even though I know that is highly unlikely. I don't put them in display cases, though. I keep mine in a waterproof tub (this also imposes a space limit so I have to be choosy) and out of sight/light/heat.

A bunch of raw cards will have a set price that rides up and down. A sealed box could potentially be all cards in a set magically at once until opened, valuing everything as an aggregate of value. The more boxes that are opened reduces the number of sealed boxes in the world this driving up a premium for sealed. So you either pull the chase card and you're the luckiest son of a gun in the world or you have the potential to be lucky with your box. Do you understand now? Sealed is Schrödinger's chase cards. Opened you either got it or didn't.

The general workaround to this is to upload it to catbox and then post a link.

>>98119181

>>98120198
That works, too. I'm just saying that if you have the image already, catbox is the common way to go to avoid a ban. That way, you don't have to look up a link. But, it's cool that the site makes it readily accessible.

You can literally proxy the whole thing if you want to play with friends and actual events don't even require you to bring your own cards, all those points are pretty moot.

>>98120553
proxies and events run by others only exacerbate the actual meat of the game - that is to say the trash and bad gameplay - that makes it easily one of the worst games ITT even below FAB or Metapoo. And even then when you remove stakes and play "for fun" unfortunately you're engaging in masturbation and not skill based gameplay.

Had some beer and accidentally pulled the trigger on like 400 dollars worth of Gundam cards. I'm huge into Gunpla so this is natural, but I have literally never seen someone play this in real life.

I just think they're neat. My library has like 4 floor to ceiling shelves of Gunpla. My main games are MtG and YGO, but I haven't played them in earnest for a while so the wombo combo got me going.

Hunted like a fiend to find anything with the Grandpa Gundam on it and bought those lmao. GD-01 starter and booster. I couldn't find anything with Char's Zaku on the cover so I'm hoping he's just in there somewhere.

I would also like to note that G-Gundam is apparently in GD-05 so if I like the game I know exactly where I'm headed. I will bring the Gundam Maxter model with me, idc.

my local scene in a smaller town in the midwest has like 6-10 show up weekly, pretty good considering thats more than yugioh.

Also holy shit, for some reason when they have prereleases, its like 24+ people. No idea why they aren't weeklies, but set releases are HUGE here, way bigger than most games.

A bit late but of those, the current Buggy deck is really cheap to make, with the starter deck getting you like 80% there, and the other cards being pretty cheap. It's far from the best deck right now but should be good for starting.
There's a new Buggy leader in the upcoming expansion, and he seems to be pretty good, but I wouldn't recommend building him just yet as a beginner as making decks right when a set releases can be quite expensive.

Hey gundam bros. This anon >>98117698 here. I'm about to leave for locals in about an hour. I just have one question before I leave. Do I need to link this pilot to get the effect or can I still use it if it's only paired? I know some pilots say link specifically but I just want to make sure.

I was in Madrid this week and tried to join some One Piece locals since I had a bit of spare time.
First one had 11 guys, was pretty nice overall. Went 1-2 since I had some awful starting hands those losing games.
Second one we only were 3 players, and they told us we needed at least 4 to play, so that was unfortunate.

Fuck having to buy from that 1 jacked up price. I'm pulling my own cards. It's because of investorfaggots that dead card games don't stay cheap.

>>98121413
I'm not doing anything, Kemo Sabe. The dude asked a question about sealed boxes and why people collect and display them. It's simple, opened cards are a roller coaster and their value sits only with individual chase cards, with copies being added to the market as packs are ripped and collections dissolve. Sealed boxes grow in value however, because they are finite with the existence of sealed boxes going down as time carries on, making them a gradually sloping peak.

There's been some gossip about the office culture having changed strongly for the worse due to certain American-import employees bringing their catty, west coast culture to LSS. Allegedly there's a growing emphasis on achievement-mogging your colleagues and being the smartest, meanest, most socially dominant girl in the room in order to get your designs printed and their designs cut.

Every special card as a preview for set 20 is taken directly from its printrun and then seeded into Omens plus the next gem pack. They will be insanely hard to pull, thus creating an ultra chase get for people to salivate over, even if they don't want to collect any lighting hero cards.

>Only a privileged few will get to stuff 66 life point totals down their unsuspecting CC opponent's log chutes.
There's enough to criticize without resorting to hallucination. He repeatedly emphasized Ballgor, Omen of the Slam is "rarest for now". It's a short run insert marvel from a future set, so that should be obvious.
The demon is not usable in CC, it's not even usable in Sage right now.

>>98124176
It's been confirmed there's an adult version though.

>>98124182
Not in Omens, and not locked to Marvel treatment. Stop muddying the water with deranged schizoposts.
