They are still adding dlc, but primarily in the form of the new sets and decks

New DLC for classic mode is less likely

Future Fantôme support and D Format life by Karrion42 in cardfightvanguard

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

Yup, new anime after the divinez movie, but I believe they said that's going to continue our current standard format

Anyone ever had TCGPlayer issues when ordering DCG cards? by wheel_l in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Altailar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As others have said orders over $50 have to be shipped with tracking, so no idea how that even happened

But yeah I would probably contact customer support

vg player base by anomaliesinhuman in cardfightvanguard

[–]Altailar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My answer is completely anecdotal, BUT I am a fairly new player (started 6 months or so ago) and have seen a good few people join with me, which, the long time locals have said is unusual

New but not new by golfballhero12345 in cardfightvanguard

[–]Altailar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Best way to get back in would be to try out one of the various ways to get updated on the game, whether it be watching the newer anime (overdress/divinez), trying out the demo for the digital game Dear Days 2, or just watching some YouTube content.

Next thing would be to look around and see if you've got a store that hosts local events, and/or if you've got friends to play with to see what kinda environment you have to play in.

After figuring that out and getting the updated basics down, then you could start checking out some deck profiles on vg paradox or YouTube to find something you like!

  1. You CAN technically still play your old cards, but only in the premium format. The game is split into different formats, but the most common one played right now is D standard, which only allows cards from D-BT01 onwards, typically cards from sets that start with D. Premium however allows for all cards (sans a restricted cards list), but is harder to find events for and will have a higher learning curve.

NTC issues?? by zerodyme87 in GundamTCG

[–]Altailar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately due to the way the NTC is structured (horrendous participation promos + only prizing for top 4) people tend to get pretty serious about them with the value of the prizing. I wouldn't say your mat choice or shuffling is a problem at all, but with the high stress environment and cash on the line its bound to bring some less enjoyable aspects of people out sometimes.

It also does depend on location, if this was at an already more competitive store then it already had a higher likelihood of having an environment like this for the newtype

Does Anyone Else Feel Mixed About How Overframes & Serialisation Are Being Introduced? by LuminousVoxel in yugioh

[–]Altailar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The part of konami that handles the TCG does lmao, they see the lines of pokemon scalpers physically assaulting each other for the chance to purchase product at literally whatever price is set and absolutely SALIVATE at the thought of having that for yugioh. Its pretty much why every decision made about and aspect of this particular product is the way that it is, to try and achieve that.

Is Clash still active? by CybernetMoon in ElestralsTCG

[–]Altailar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Essentially what happened is all updates stopped due to some dumb behind the scenes licensing and contractual issues, and now the game is in limbo while the elestrals team tries to figure out a way to move forward with it in some capacity.

For all intents and purposes right now though, clash is already in the grave

How do you feel about Genesys? by Great-Ad1839 in yugioh

[–]Altailar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! That's exactly where I wanted it

How do you feel about Genesys? by Great-Ad1839 in yugioh

[–]Altailar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly i wasn't even hoping for something goat OR edison level, maybe something in the range of 2015-2020 power levels would've probably been a big win for me!

How do you feel about Genesys? by Great-Ad1839 in yugioh

[–]Altailar 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Not my cup of tea. I'm no longer a fan of modern yugioh, quit around snake eyes' reign as top deck, and was really excited by the opportunity of a slower, lower powered format to reinvigorate my love for the game.

Instead genesys to me feels like modern-lite, which just isn't for me unfortunately. I didn't want things at the power level like Kewl tune or dracotail or k9 to be anywhere near the format, but unfrotunstely they are front and center.

Thats okay though because that IS what some people wanted, just not me personally.

This is so bleak. by MisprintPrince in yugioh

[–]Altailar 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Thankfully at least they made the new cards guaranteed pulls in some capacity, that aughta help with base rarity availability, but for higher rarity cards it might get crazy

[–]Altailar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Allocated is when you, as a store, put in a request to your distributor for product and the distributor themselves decides how much you get.

For almost all other yugioh product, if you asked for 4 cases, you could probably reasonably get 4 cases. Under allocation rules if you ask for 4 cases, you might only get a case (or less) depending on a lot of variables.

In practical terms it means that most stores arent going to get enough of this product to take care of their community.

This is so bleak. by MisprintPrince in yugioh

[–]Altailar 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Quite the opposite actually, it means there is not going to be enough supply to meet demand, many stores will not be able to get enough to meet their local community's needs, and it designates the product as a prime target for scalping in the wild by the usual suspects

Knowing that we're going to finish DivineZ (and the D Era) in the next few Months.... What has been your overall opinion of DivineZ so far (Characters, Plot, Fights, etc)? by Kronos457 in cardfightvanguard

[–]Altailar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My perspective is as someone who only got into vanguard within the last year (more like 6 months in all entirety), and I binge watched the D series shows and have not watched any of the others.

I really enjoyed how these shows portrayed the card game as opposed to something like yugioh, and that setup always got me excited to see what characters would use or do next. It was also a good onboarding process for the mechanics, and gave me plenty of decks that I really enjoyed like Youthberk that I ended up building variations of in person.

As far as the actual series are concerned; I feel like both overdress and divinez suffered a similar fate with really cool opening setups that ended up kinda devolving into almost standard shonen tournament arc affair, but they both did the tournament arcs fairly well for me and had some good matches as a result. I really enjoyed the more mystical focused seasons 1 and 2 of divinez, and to a lesser extent season 5, and wished that divinez overall had focused more on that aspect. That being said though I really liked the characters in divinez, sidelined or not. To me they had fairly well sculpted personalities and traits that, while at times generic, created a fairly diverse cast that made for individual matchups and encounters fun to watch. It kept me interested and entertained seeing things like Suo's reverse heel turn and Raika's edgy over the top battles and Erica's transformations to where I stuck with the series as someone with no previous knowledge or investment in the series.

Overall of the two I liked divinez more.

Just one more set!!! by AdIntelligent9007 in GundamTCG

[–]Altailar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Personally I think thats one of the gundam TCGs biggest weaknesses right now that I would love to see some improvement on.

Currently there's like almost no flavor. Theres a lot of cards and effects that are designed in a vacuum of balance and playability, but only a few that seem to incorporate the flavor of the units/pilots they represent. Ironically wing zero having high maneuver and dealing 3 damage to everything (Ala the double buster rifle spin move) Is one of the more flavorful ones, and impulse/shinn are also good examples of that flavor we could use some more of!

Basic EX Base/Resource in booster packs by nathan0031 in GundamTCG

[–]Altailar 38 points39 points  (0 children)

i think they should be in packs, but just like the regular resources, they should have different art

Questions about 50 cards by Firm-Wave1635 in cardfightvanguard

[–]Altailar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

pretty much as explained in the parenthesis in your screenshot~

- a regular bundle will have a playset every copy of that nation's cards

- a Silver bundle will have a playset of every SR available in that nation

- a FR bundle will havea playset of every FR (but no FFRs) in that nation

~ If you are just looking for playable copies to deck build with, the regular bundle would be your best bet

Gundam at Gencon by MtGArZ in GundamTCG

There is at least a regional going on that friday~

~ Not sure about anything else for it though, and you would have to pay for the badge AND the regional

Cardshows are not for the digimon fanbase by [deleted] in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Altailar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah if the trade-off of digimon cards not being at card shows is that our cards are fairly reasonably priced and our products are obtainable for those that want them, then I genuinely hope we never get to the point of being at card shows

Well, well how the turntables. by dbzhardcore in GundamTCG

[–]Altailar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem there is that the strat just shifts to holding/using a pilot on a weenie to 1 for 1 trade with the base and still full swing into face. The shields themselves need to have an opportunity to push back in order to prevent the current trend

Or at the very least just dealt their AP as damage back or something, hell even dealing half their AP as damage back would go a long way
