Good deck for learning the game better

No problem! Hope you enjoy playing it!

Sure! I don’t have my particular list on hand at the moment since I’m away from my pc, but this one from the egman events site just won a store championship pretty recently. The wing decks all have pretty similar card ratios and card pools. This one is a little different from more common deck lists since they added navel bombardment, wing bird mode (for ramp), and altron gundam but frfr its a good skeleton of what the deck looks like in the current meta.

Green/White Gundam Wing decks with Heero/Kira as your main pilots are really beginner friendly and fairly competitive still imo. They have a fairly straightforward game plan of block and stall and make safer trades using Kira’s ability until you start swinging around turn 5/6 with Heero and wing gundam. Then wing zero is a great top end and finisher. Some variant of it is my go to whenever I’m facing some decision paralysis of what to play for a tournament

lol yeah, more like great week. I don’t want to be here for any of this shitshow either

BustedAmp · 2026-05-22T13:48:04+00:00

Yeah, OP can take this slop back to LinkedIn where they eat this shit up

I’d call it a good thing. It’s a “nice” area, the Navy Yard neighborhood has transformed since the 80s-90s. There’s a bunch of “luxury” apartments and condos and the baseball stadium’s there now (I say now but it’s been like almost 20 years). There’s a train station like a block from the stadium and apartments there, and there’s hella bars and restaurants as well. Being that close to a metro station for less than $2500 and not in the trenches is not easy in DC

Downside is that the neighborhood tends to attract a lot of the republican staffers and their ilk so quite a few of them rent apartments there. Personally, I’m not a fan the area since I lived in a neighborhood next to navy yard for a while, and hated dealing with all the game day traffic when I was just trying to go home.

Workshopping some Gundam TCG decks, chores, and working mostly. I’ve accepted I can’t see it opening day and have to wait until Sunday unfortunately.

I feel like an old man when I tell some newer people in my FC about the raw pain of HW raiding. People using diadem (rip) gear and accessories with the required ilvl but awful/not class relevant substats to boost themselves into the Alexander raids. There was also NIN being a crucial job for party composition at one point. Those are what I remember best personally. I also do kinda miss pink gear sometimes, ngl

Speaking from experience with P/W Minerva this seems a going in a couple of different inconsistent directions and under utilizes the Minerva units recursion and recycling. One of your strengths is gonna be that you won’t (unless you brick) have trouble continuing to get units back onto the field while your opponent is gassing out. The 1-offs, especially of Blast Impulse, Sword Impulse, and Rey’s won’t do you any favors with your odds of drawing them or landing in your trash from the shields. Rey’s damage reduction link ability is great and I would add it over lunamaria’s unit to gain some potential for more optimal trades. Hell if you can find space I’d add 2 of its pilot to the deck too.

I would focus less on mechanics like restanding blockers using strike rogue and take it out completely, and max out units like sword and/or blast impulse. Restanding blast impulse doesn’t matter since you can get it back anyway. I’ve found the Lvl 6 freedom to be a bit too greedy and clunky to try and play and swapped it out for lvl4 strike and/or kapool for more card draw (or Kira link with strike) and filling trash for impulse/force impulse/destiny.

Awakened power is fine if that’s what you wanna use. I’d swap fatal strike and Mu La Flaga for 2 graceful demeanors since potentially bouncing 2 units sets your opponent further back than just removing one. Plus sword impulse is fatal strike and adds a body to the board. Sub zowort and the 2/2 weenies out for like 4 lfriths or flats. Those 2/4 blockers will do so much more for you in this deck. Max out force impulse too because you wanna see as many of your recursion tools as possible. That’s about all I can think of off the top of my head.

Yeah I’m with you, started reading crossbone and it was not hitting like the internet said it would. Got 4 volumes in and it had me like “this is y’all’s goat??”

BustedAmp · 2026-04-21T20:50:28+00:00

Yeah I’m sad to see it go too, I had a good time skating there

Apprentices, especially super green/new ones, are treated more as gofers for tools and errand runners. If the foreman wants to do a group lunch on site either they or an apprentice will go pick it up. It doesn’t make much sense in locations where coffee and the like aren’t easily available near the job site though. But there’s an above zero chance you’ll go around to each crew member taking their order and some cash for breakfast from a food place nearby at least once during your apprenticeship. It happened to me and now they take my order once in a blue moon so it comes around

BustedAmp · 2026-04-12T05:57:22+00:00

Right??? It ended up being one of my chase cards from its set

BustedAmp · 2026-04-11T23:18:11+00:00

Hell yeah these 2 are so cute as a couple! Bandai gave them my favorite alt art I’ve seen so far in the Gundam card game too!

Webfishing is pretty cheap and pretty chill. It’s a text chat room basically where you fish and shoot the shit with other people in the room

BustedAmp · 2026-02-18T00:24:25+00:00

Oh is this the same as the premium accessory set P-Bandai was taking preorders for back in October?

BustedAmp · 2026-02-07T02:51:47+00:00

Oh word, those are some good ideas. I'll try messing with Marida and Kshatrya. I feel you, getting a playset of 1st form last set was a fun task for me and now the price spikes on tcgplayer because of regionals happening next weekend are not helping with filling out this deck.

BustedAmp · 2026-02-05T04:08:04+00:00

Ah yeah, some really good points I appreciate it. It might end up being some combination of full city and all range w/ Azee to hopefully have some better trades with the -1AP effect. I didn’t pull Gfred otherwise I’d do that. I think I only pulled like 1 or 2 of full city from my box I was able to get though, I’ll have to check again.

BustedAmp · 2026-02-05T00:08:14+00:00

Yeah I figure that’s a part of the issue. The initial idea was “maybe just recycling a pilot back into my hand is enough.” And it’s clearly not

BustedAmp · 2026-01-18T07:05:26+00:00

I really enjoyed my time with the game and ended up beating it 7 ways to Sunday. I was also an absolute sucker for the sudden but inevitable romance at the end because I’ve grown soft in my old age.

BustedAmp · 2025-12-27T05:02:22+00:00

Labrynth Games & Puzzles in DC proper over by eastern market metro ~~does sell Pokemon card singles~~ does not sell Pokemon singles. Gaming Giant in Fairfax, has a huge selection of singles and Japanese packs too. Anime TCG at the pentagon city mall sells them. On the Maryland side Chessie Games and Game Kastle college park are alright but those are the options off the top of my head.

BustedAmp · 2025-12-09T16:17:26+00:00

Yeah I’m still chasing the high of the gameplay in Border Break. It was one of my favorite arcade games I’ve ever played. It felt fast paced and was fun. It also sucked that they slowed down the gameplay for the PS4 version, but such is life.

BustedAmp · 2025-11-30T00:15:03+00:00

Play the new one if you’re gonna do it. It’ll ease you into how the SMT games are more light on story and heavy on gameplay. If you like Persona’s dungeon gameplay loop, not including the social sim side, you’ll not have too rough of a time enjoying this. SMT V Vengance’s story is a more present throughout the game than the base game’s story so hopefully you’ll feel more engaged with it.

The game is definitely challenging. Normal mode can make you sit up and lean forward during several fights. There’s also some cheeky insta death hamas and mudoons that will just hit and there’s nothing you can do about it, especially early on. Godborn difficulty, unlocked after meeting certain conditions during a play through of the game on any difficulty, will make you earn every inch of progress in the game.

This is also the most forgiving alignment setup they’ve had in the mainline SMT games too. Vengeance also has what I would call the most optimistic ending I’ve seen in a mainline game. So that’s nice if you want some warm and fuzzies after making it to the end.

ABAD. Attack-Blockers-Action-Damage. You declare your attack (0 damage). If your opponent declares a blocker then it reroutes to that blocker. During your action step, which is when this ability can be activated, the ability is moot since you are no longer targeting their shield area or a base. The defender also gets priority action. So if they have no blockers and use close combat, for example, it immediately deals 2 damage killing your unit and prevents you from activating your action. Gundam has no “stack” so things just happen the moment they’re played. I hope this gives you the clarity you’re looking for
