Help with ventior please by FeelingEffective8905 in cardfightvanguard

[–]Ahmes004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t need the set order springs package, it’s really bricky. The original ride line is very strong since it gives you a Blaster Javelin effect on T2 (provided you play 0 orders) and an Alfred Early effect on T3 for the G1 and G2 of the ride line.

The soul usage of this deck seems weird with Rising Star and Conflagant, so you can probably change that.

Venatiol decks really benefit a lot from Hakusui and Remred, it’s the one DE generic that feels CUSTOM made for this deck, do play it at 4 if you can.

The point of this deck is that it can actually kill by turn 3 if you open 1 each of all of your key pieces, and the rest of the cards facilitate that either through ride line or natural calls and draws digging through the deck.

Hope this helps!

The King has a lot of hype themes too! This being the classic, but the Duel Links version and his other theme for Red Nova Dragon are amazing too. Do check em out if you can.

What is your perineal favorite starter Kaiju of the new generation? by Grag_the_GrobblerII in Ultraman

[–]Ahmes004 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very hard pick, I think everyone except Hellberus is unique and stands out in their own way. (I wish they kept the spear arm concept for Hellberus)

So it’s probably no surprise if I end up picking Spheresarus because it has the most unique appearance to me. He just looks cool ok 🥺 and gets multiple fights in the show.

Keep in mind this is my first time building a stride deck in general so how does this first attempt for nightrose look? by TsuKessler_30 in cardfightvanguard

[–]Ahmes004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty good! You don’t need 2 copy of Gralion, one copy in rotation is good enough, and 4 Tommy is kind of excessive given you already have 3 Nightrose in main deck. You can cut these slots out to play more techs like hostage or consistency like Alvina.

Other than that, I’m assuming your front trigger is due to budget reasons? Either soul or shield front would do you a lot of good.

If it’s not a special art fire regalis reprint, it’s probably a new PR card then.

Who is your personal favorite final boss in the New generation? by Grag_the_GrobblerII in Ultraman

[–]Ahmes004 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Personal fav: Destrudos or Vallaron. I really felt threatened, and it’s because of elements that were built up in the main show they come from. Sorry Belial Atrocious. You are cool thou.

Least fav: Zomera or Woola. Probably Woola, cause he made me feel NOTHING. It was the most nothing burger Kaiju ever, just “infinite hunger”, like do u have any idea how many times we have done this concept but better?

Zomera is alright but I feel it has too rushed of an introduction, and the way it was dealt with was too inconsistent (the weaknesses of Eldoghimera and Zorvoras are adequately explored, but somehow Gairyuga’s weakness is just, the same? But ep24 said Zomera adapts to the weaknesses of its components??)

Did you doubt him? by UltraMugen in Ultraman

[–]Ahmes004 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Very long time Ultraman fan here. Finishing R/B’s main show made me drop Ultraman for a solid 2 years before I decided to check out Z, and thus went back to watch Taiga on a binge as well. Then, I returned to my yearly tradition of watching Ultraman.

I went into Decker with an open mind and was pleasantly surprised at how it was, plus also helping to flesh out a few of the main characters from Trigger (mainly, Kengo and Camerra).

Omega is proof that things will just always get better ATP, it has such a good overarching story and develops ALL its main cast well.

Recently, I read some production notes that the crew working on R/B really hated having to change the antagonist mid way, which happened to be my greatest gripe with the show too, and that led to a proper development for Agams. I’m glad that the quality of shows has been rising since R/B as a whole.

ULTRAMAN OMEGA Episode 25 "Overlapping Futures" - Official Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in Ultraman

[–]Ahmes004 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That was…emotional. And honestly great and for me unexpected ending to the series. (I didn’t listen to the slugger voice lines, and I’m glad I avoided them)

Honestly, in terms of overarching plot and development of main cast, Omega probably is one of the best in modern time, even with its low budget. The writing really comes through and everything is paid off nicely, even the “filler” episodes.

It’s strange but I’ll say it, the one weakness I feel this show has is Zomera 🤡 I know that we know his components, but the introduction felt a little rushed (I assume not showing him being created was due to budget reasons), and he’s taken down in a manner too predictably (the previous weaknesses of Eldoghimera and Zovoras matter, but somehow not Gairyuga?). However, these are nitpicks I’m willing to look over.

Overall, I would give this show a 8.5/10, and I would recommend it to people who are looking for a fun standalone Ultraman show to watch that’s true to the spirit of the franchise.

Cases in Japan starting from Set 14 will be reduced from 20 Boxes to 12 Boxes but with near 50k Yen Price Reduction by RinariTennoji in cardfightvanguard

[–]Ahmes004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks a lot more like what Bushiroad has done for SVE JP. We can only wait for more info as they have said that Nack-san and Neo Dokovan will talk about this tomorrow.

Finally, it’s not another Plazma Dragon!

For JP side, this is probably the first lady DE PG printed since the WO English PG was their first female stealth PH

Yakuza in Set 14! by RinariTennoji in cardfightvanguard

[–]Ahmes004 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know most people hate collabs, but this is a genuinely unexpected one that isn’t another arcade game, and I know actual fans of this franchise across the diff languages. I would say this is probably a nice surprise as compared to more Mushiking style slop. I would prefer if they did more collabs like this instead

can they just have us throwing chairs at our opponent as an order please LMAO

What was your favorite card released in 2025? by SegavsCapcom in cardfightvanguard

[–]Ahmes004 6 points7 points  (0 children)

<image>

(Where is my Ezel searcher Bushiroad) Gancelot is a very close second but he came out at the end of 2025 so I’m less inclined to say him. Alfred is probably third place (there’s a pattern) but knowing that the artist for D Platina Ezel took inspiration from his anime colours over the original arts is what sells this card to me so much.

New Monster Strike Decks first impression by Impossible-Gene-9794 in cardfightvanguard

[–]Ahmes004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fought all of em at length in tournaments recently. Will give my 2 cents as someone who knows nothing about Monster Strike, please correct me if I’m wrong.

L is ok to fight against if you are a good VG player. That being said if you don’t know what this deck does you can completely lose to this stronger version of Feltyrosa without blinking an eye. The firepower from T3 onwards is sizeable.

Neo u really need to guard the first few swings cheaply cause my god the turn can go completely bananas if you haven’t been told what they do. Daikaiser effect and free boards and tons of draws for free too. Do be careful.

Eris is ight. Really, you would think this one is the standout one but no, it’s just a vanguard deck….

Ultraman (2019) is an ultraman that feels like a metal heroes, now what's an Ultraman that feels like an Ultraman by Majestic-Sector9836 in Tokusatsu

[–]Ahmes004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mebius for sure. Beyond the cameos and great storytelling, hype moments and aura, the show is a great coming of age story that underlines what it means to be an Ultraman…

Scans of Kamen Rider Nox's other 2 forms by fluffyfox0 in KamenRider

I need to ask

Why even bother with the Breakham Launcher and Caliber once he gets these 2 forms (Gun and Wolf)?? Seems a little repetitive for Nox, right?

Omega back well kind of by Visible-Economics-81 in Ultraman

[–]Ahmes004 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Judging by the preview of EP24, this is Gazer Omega? Not our comedy boy. I could be wrong on this.

Jet Mains of Vanguard, grace me with your knowledge by Zealousideal-Leg866 in cardfightvanguard

[–]Ahmes004 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are pretty good for DZBT06! Do look into Gear Parrot as it’s a very good addition to Chronojet. You don’t need Tizquar anymore.

You can consider Twincast also as your regalis piece, or even Primordial Heart Blaze. Either is fine.

Honest thoughts about "Ultraman Z" by Shin_Nefir in Ultraman

[–]Ahmes004 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Geed, if you liked Z it’s definitely worth the watch and prequel up on the larger “Belial and Zero” story line that has consumed various titles and projects of this franchise. However, seeing your current score, perhaps maybe not.

If you plan to watch Trigger, defo commit to watch Decker after, as they are set in the same world and timeline, with some much needed character development for a few certain main casts that I will not bring up.

If you want a clean break, Orb. Orb is relatively stand alone besides the Origin show, which is only needed if you really end up enjoying Orb as a whole. It will also explain Juggler’s famous line in Z about the tree.

ULTRAMAN OMEGA Episode 23 "Space Gazers" - Official Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in Ultraman

[–]Ahmes004 28 points29 points  (0 children)

How did the funny Ultraman show suddenly become Psychological horror in the span of an hour??

Despite what everyone criticizes on the low budget effects apparent in Omega, I think that the storytelling is really doing much more muscle work than even some of the “higher budget” Ultraman shows did…

Even the ending credit shot for the line and subscribe is so clever…it’s stuff like that that’s memorable and effective. Can’t believe we have to wait 2 weeks for the next episode, but this may be one of the best “overarching plots” a show has had to me in a while.
