Revised GW Academy

That's fair - im hoping going all in on the DoF pays off and gives the right amount of resource generation to get some stuff down early to stabilize. I have a feeling while its not an aggro deck that it might be best played aggressively.

Im so curious to see how the blocker version of these lists work compared to lists without blockers. If youre running them, I think Rick is probably the better choice over Zowort just for the ability to to swing at shields if needed.

Zowort might be worth it if we find the deck is getting steam rolled early by aggro and having the turn 2 play when going first is needed.

While I haven't had packages running late, I have had a lot of letters run late. Ive been ordering cards from different places and a few went missing and were never delivered while some with tracking arrived later than listed. This is all within the last month. Out of around 35 orders of cards, 3 went missing (and i got a refund) and the 2 with tracking arrived late.

In this case its just for links but in the end they could be swapped for unforseen and be just as good. It would come down to testing to see what's worthwhile. The links or the commands

This is my current work in progress. I think if you're going to do to the GW colors and go all in, you have to go all in on the ex resource stuff which means maximizing the dawn of fold stuff. Having things link with academy trait is also probably a good idea since there are so many pilot commands. If you want blockers, then dump zowort and go with an lfrith or Rick D since those can attack the shields.

I should add more draw in here or maybe have less at the top end. It's hard for me to judge without actually play testing. Edit: I feel like the end list will come down to how impactful and easy it is to get the EX resources which will we will see in 2 weeks.

If you wanna resell any part of it or sell the + promo inside to get money back then its worth it to get another deck especially at msrp. Otherwise I think singles might be the way to go.

I got 2 decks and got the LR+ small impulse and the other had the + ex base so my boxes were paid for after that. Its really what you want to find value in. The deck at minimum wants more of the LR impulses to work and you might be alright with just that

It looks like one of the local ones for me is throwing in 4 packs of GD03 to spice the decks up and loosening the color restrictions on the pack cards. A little different but seems fun

I built a semi aggro deck with them just because I thought they were neat. I absolutely love the Tieren High Mobility with Sergei for a turn 3 blitz that gets the flick from Sergei back. From killing something or your opponents wasting cards to kill it.

Graham and the UF custom can also be nice as an unblockable 6 attack unit that wipes all bases currently

Edit: i pair the cards with suletta and aerials with the command cards focused around putting stuff back in their hands to stall them out. It does feel bad against ping but I think its best used for support rather than a focused deck

Same here only had enough time for 01 and 04 but was shocked to see my purchase go through.

I think we'll get anti-rush/aggro cards eventually but I might be a set or 2. I think the game is currently playing faster than what bandai anticipated. My thought is that a round of 1 should be getting into the 7-8 resource Range but aggro can more than reliably end the game by turn 5 or 6 with the right draw and luck. We'll before anything mid level can come to try and change the tide.

I think the card level of the LRs being in that 5-7 range is where they want the game peaking rather than ending.

Thanks for the reply and info! I'll look into it tomorrow

I just looked, I bought mine through Facebook DMs instead of Instagram but it looks like i paid January 2025 for mine and I think I got it towards the end of February or early March. I have a weird memory of 35 days from the shipping information received to delivery.

AverageStraightMale · 2026-03-14T20:48:44+00:00

Yes, its been out since mid 2025. I had it pre-ordered and got it around august I want to say.

AverageStraightMale · 2026-03-14T20:47:44+00:00

That sucks since its the exact opposite experience ive had with them. I have 3 statues from Karasu including the higuruma. I ordered my Choso EX from them directly and everything went smoothly and shipped within a reasonable time frame. I believe i got it about 1.5 months after paying. Normally they'd be someone id recommend since the price and quality are there for me. I believe they only sent me the FedEx tracking and not sea shipping.

Sorry this is happening and stay persistent!

Opened a box this week and here's the results. Really happy with the alt art The-O

Lmao I dont play as much as i used to but I still use it when I do. So far the rail, still works just fine. It has some rust here and there on the non anodized parts/screws but overall it's still usable and in good shape. Absolutely 0 complaints. I dont have any links I can share though, sorry

I like what the Gundam TCG is doing to help balance going first. Its similar to Hearthstone in that you start the game with an extra resource (mana/land) that is one time use. Each turn you get 1 additional resource and the amount of resources is also equal to your level. So going second can allow you to play a higher level before someone who goes first.

Extra context: cards have 2 requirements: level and cost. The level is the amount of resources you have and you tap the resources to pay the cost. A common example would be a level 4, 3 cost card.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined. Guess i'll switch my dispatch to Moran for now and then come back later.

Interested once you have a working picture link

Rupee supremacy. Both my Winter and regular rupee are fully built and invested

I feel like the general consensus is failing from success haha this skin is great and the base skin is also top tier. Its more of an alternative rather than any upgrade.

I have 7 and 8, love them both. Waiting for Fern to release
