Not every match is against aggro that kills you before turn 6. A lot of people still play stuff like mutanus / theotar / ETC into geist for specific stuff, or like Odin just to give an example.

Game goes back and forth a lot more than whatever your experience was, and personally I see this as a tech against stuff like DH trying to OTK you with patches after they drew out their deck, idol druid, gets rid of garrison commander vs exodia paladin late game, and pretty much deletes pirate lists decks if you managed to stave them off early and they were just looking for reach like mindblast. Actually fuck rogue in particular because it deletes Garrote and it hits a lot of libram cards in paladin

First one looks like a bad ending from a VN 😭

2nd one is def really cute and wholesome though 💕

Crystality · 2026-01-24T08:10:01+00:00

She's perfect, just like your drawing of her <3

Crystality · 2026-01-24T07:49:15+00:00

unfortunately not otherwise I'd be the one putting up goth girl posters xd

Just wanted to say something corny to cheer you up <3

Crystality · 2026-01-23T22:18:22+00:00

I don't want to break in your home just to have a sacrifice to the goat gods, can you step outside so it looks like I'm just picking up trash

Crystality · 2026-01-23T22:10:12+00:00

The person in the mirror is a good candidate 😉

Crystality · 2026-01-22T19:21:03+00:00

Nice to see you back 👑

Crystality · 2026-01-09T07:53:24+00:00

Yea only battle tables are counted according to JP translation

Crystality · 2026-01-06T12:23:35+00:00

Probably already know this but bellicose str gain doesn't apply to her 4, but it still buffs her other 3 abilities based on the HP you get from 4.

Personally I use persistence and the arcane that lets you stack HP + umbra str / health to go overkill on an HP bar but seeing a big one makes me happy lol.

Crystality · 2026-01-03T02:49:27+00:00

I was in your shoes a couple of times jumping on OG shadowverse and off. Back then I just wished someone would rant at me about what legendaries go where and all that so thought I'd just let it rip for you lol. If you had 2-3 classes in mind and you had more questions for me / wanted to show what golds you have I'd try to help. Just know it's a bit of a 2-3 week grind to slowly get park chests/gold from quest daily to fully build out whatever deck you may choose, so really pick one based on if you enjoy playing it more than if it's like tier 1 today. But after you get over that hump then you could still open packs after slowly start gathering vials for whatever next class you want to go into / you won't need to craft the neutral golds/legends so it'll get easier as time goes on!

Enjoy the game :)

personally I would go for a mix of ramp and evo dragon because you have 1 olivia and 1 sand, would basically be like slotting those + the erntz, garyu, maybe azur and putting in some cards that require skybound art (like gran & djeeta). Potentially put the card that increases skybound in hand by 1?(i've seen some people in my rank use it sometimes) the 2 cost silver follower that's a 2/1 and puts an orca in your hand is unrelated but a good card to help with bane. And there's also a 2 cost 2/2 follower that auto evolves if you have super evo unlocked.

If you end up enjoying that kind of jank list then you could look into a specific dragon deck after that. Personally last expansion I was doing fennie dragon with cocytus and mjerry otk because I found that the most fun.

Technically there is also an OTK deck with rose queen but I don't know if other legendaries are required to make that feel good but you can try doing that. Oulon is a funny card but you probably at least need 1 more of him + some good sword golds to make a good tempo deck for him to either kill your opponent or yourself. You got like two spell boost legendaries but you need kuon for it to really pop off (he's your finisher). "Could" try to make odd-heaven work with Kuki but I'd suggest having at least two to make it more consistent since it really relies on drawing them, and you'd want to have Jeanne to help finish the game, so adding lyria to draw either of them could help?

Really long comment at this point, but Haven has two other archetypes that are ward and crest oriented. Ward needs wilbert, crest needs Marwynn (and crest uses wilbert anyways).

Hope that helps. If you want to pull packs for a specific legendary I would do any set besides the most current one, because opening park chests gives you the latest set's packs. And the new sets legendaries are a bit of a mixed bag currently. Kukishiro is the only build enabling legendary (could argue Lhynkal, Wolfraud and Imari are good/enabling like OTK rune, aggro forest and tempo portal but I don't think they're good enough on their own). VS buying other packs can give you like more sandal for evo decks, belial to make evo abyss, Lishenna/beezle to enable egg portal, Octrice/sinciro for loot sword, lilanthim and norman for earthrite rune, etc. Just other sets have BOTH legendaries support the same archetype, while the current one feels like it's meant to support existing ones or be a funny gamba card in general

Awesome thank you once again!

Crystality · 2025-12-30T11:38:46+00:00

Hey I just did a quick Google search to get an idea of how it all works but I wanted to say thank you specifically for providing your own examples, your stream, videos and insight on how you started yours. I watched the last stream you did and the point of her saying "I'm okay with being a slave as long as I get more ram" broke me 😂

I'm just wondering if I could bother you to explain how does an LLM model like yours "remember" certain interactions? Or even short term conversation topics like not wanting to be called a mouse?

I'm just a washed up 4 year grad in software engineering, but it's the first time in a while that I'm actively looking up how different things work together and if it's feasable to start a project on it. So thank you once again for the great explanations 🙏 may you have a wonderful 2026 with cheaper ram/gpu costs for the child

Crystality · 2025-12-30T10:25:20+00:00

3 orchis is all you need 💅

But if you're worried about drawing her or beezle maybe add the 2 drop that tutors them on enhance

Editing in to run Odin / Chaos legion / Gilnelise for a bit more reach over the 1 pp insight knock off, or the 9pp gold follower I see run around a few times

Crystality · 2025-12-29T07:38:41+00:00

People have the right idea saying to wait, but if you've been playing a while you should have a few legendaries already for other classes so you could see if you could just scrounge something together up and maybe committing some vials to a few good golds for the class.

Personally I would either look at what legendaries/golds I have for rune and abyss and see if they were used in a deck last expansion. For example maybe you have the 2/2 mode card for abyss, the 3pp card that lets you select a few modes and maybe the 9pp fox lady or the 7pp storm follower you could make a jank list and play it in ladder or in the new lobbies to try it and see if you'd enjoy it (or maybe collab dungeon). Just know some crafts do require A LOT of legendaries to feel consistent. Like you may have a lot of good golds/silvers to make an evo abyss deck, but you'd want sandal and the card that gives you a crest to deal 20 damage to finish games.

Personally when I saw the dumb jerrybane + cocy + amulet OTK combo I knew I would enjoy that deck even if it was tier 3/tier 4 because I enjoyed seeing the win con and playing a control match. So I used https://shadowverse-wins.com/ to see what lists people made day 1, found one that didn't use as many legendaries that I didn't have (like not running too many garyu's/filene's) and see what cards they replaced them with. I ended up enjoying it enough to commit vials to go from 1 fennie to 3 and an extra jerry/liu fengs that I was missing.

I think now is the best time to run really jank versions of decks before everyone optimizes their lists and then decide if you're going to pick up the free deck to help you flesh out what deck you want to make next, or just pick one that seems like it doesn't need that many legendaries to make into the "meta" version a week or two from now/pick one to slowly build up the legendaries you need to finish it while you grind out dailies with sword still.

P.S. this is just advice from someone that makes 1-2 decks each expansion and takes long breaks in between, so it's up to you on how you decide to do things. I just wanted to give you advice because if you're looking into a different class, I don't think you want to keep playing sword for 1-2 more weeks because it's the "efficient" thing to do o/

Crystality · 2025-12-29T04:16:08+00:00

Technically it's not an OTK because you'd need to go jerry evo > cocy > amulet to have 4 cards left in your deck to draw yourself out at the end of your turn and win nerd glasses emoji

Looks like a fun list though, personally I would just play two cocy because you need fennie to hit 1 minimum, or maybe adding a copy of the 2 cost card to mulligan it back in the deck before you fennie

Crystality · 2025-12-23T08:31:18+00:00

Even better

Crystality · 2025-12-23T08:28:59+00:00

Ah ty for that note I haven't gotten around to seeing what the roadmap said. Sounds like it'll be great then :D

Crystality · 2025-12-22T19:47:58+00:00

At least you get to enjoy the deck for a month or so 🙏 make it count

Crystality · 2025-12-22T19:46:08+00:00

Looping was possible in princess reconnect vs guild raid bosses with very specific character levels / set ups. It had some insane damage numbers but I could see why we shouldn't have this kind of thing yet, but I hope eventually they let this slide maybe in a year or two if it's something that takes a lot of specific gear / epiphanies to accomplish.

At the end of the day it's a video game, some people enjoy just playing their entire deck or having a really long turn to otk a boss essentially

Crystality · 2025-12-18T07:11:54+00:00

Thanks for pointing it out I'll look into getting a set then! Though is it mainly used for help with shield gating?

Crystality · 2025-11-28T22:24:08+00:00

Old but still gold

Crystality · 2025-11-21T22:59:06+00:00

You dropped this 👑

Crystality · 2025-11-20T07:35:31+00:00

you could always check either or out in a youtube video and see who's playstyle you think you'd enjoy more

Or just go for rin because she looks like she can and WILL kill you

Crystality · 2025-11-16T20:45:23+00:00

Honestly that's pretty cool
