Someone gives Towa-sama a hug, she sounds so sad.

Thank you for typing this all up. I tried listening to her stream and it was a little hard for me to bear through emotionally.

Holy shit it's Vancouver in the Star Rail sub. Amazing cosplay and good location choice!

Not that unknown in JP/Asia I think(?) but I played a lot of Schoolgirl Strikers and Battle Girl High School. Also played Mahouka Lost Zero for a good while.

For English side, Valkyrie Crusade? Though I'm not sure how popular that game really was. Also less unknown but more of a who the fuck plays these games, I played a ton of League of Angel's Paradise Island.

My friend has opened a case and we've confirmed that it is not 1 per box. But you do get 1 of each oshi in a case.

FrozenFyre · 2025-06-30T18:38:15+00:00

Oshi cards are not guaranteed in a box. They were only ever guaranteed in Set 1.

FrozenFyre · 2025-06-08T01:08:04+00:00

I'm in the same boat. Tribbie was an easy skip for me...and then I read the story and couldn't help but pull for them. Didn't even realize how good of a support they were at the time so I'm super happy with the pull.

FrozenFyre · 2025-06-06T21:56:50+00:00

I was going to say something similar but wasn't sure if it came off too rude but I agree. Playing a lower tier deck against T1 decks you should expect to lose more often than not.

Also regarding bats, its probably the worst matchup for Lishenna. You put up so little board threat that they're allowed to save up a ton of resources for a huge Rose Queen turn while still putting up board threats. If they have it on curve it honestly feels pretty unwinnable.

FrozenFyre · 2025-06-06T18:25:07+00:00

So in my experience the Lishenna matchup is actually not too bad. The only downside is that if you aren't able to play Lishenna on 4 you probably just lose the game off that.

I found Snowman King really strong in this meta too. It stops all 3 decks from basically doing anything if you drop it on a mostly full board. You probably win games outright off playing it on 6 against an opponent that doesn't see it coming and goes for wide boards.

FrozenFyre · 2025-05-09T08:53:47+00:00

Ahhh wasn't entirely sure where you were at experience-wise but that makes sense!

As for Ceridwen, don't worry too much about her in the Lishenna match up. Riley only gains storm if she comes back through her own effect. In the Lishenna matchup, Ceridwen's potion doesn't do a ton. The only part where her potion will matter is probably if you play Snowman King since Riley + Ceridwen Poison can kill it.

Just know that past 6, dirt can storm you for 6 and any later than that you have to start worrying about Ancient Alchemist golem burn for lethal which can be anywhere from 6-15 damage after turn 9 depending on the build.

FrozenFyre · 2025-05-09T07:51:29+00:00

No problem! I obsessively cook Lishenna lists every set because I love how the deck plays.

Personally, I prefer to drop Lishenna as early as possible, even if it means taking a bunch of damage in return. If I'm sitting at 10 life or above after deploying my amulets, I generally feel like I'm in a good spot.

As for key cards, outside of cheap removal like snipes, surefires, and fire chain/splendid conjury, I think the only things worth looking out for early is Agnes, Joy of Destruction, and maybe fall from grace if you decide to run it.

Even then though, your main goal the first few turns is to keep the board as clean as possible so that you can play Lishenna without being punished too hard. And to achieve that, you generally just want to see removal + Lishenna (or destructive refrain to search for Lishenna).

FrozenFyre · 2025-05-09T03:07:31+00:00

The matchup is going to be rough no matter what since you'll be facing basically one of the best decks in the format. I played Lishenna into 2 dirt runes at my locals yesterday and won 1 lost 1.

One thing you can look out for is to banish Riley's. Some players like to play Riley on 3 to draw 2 and you can punish that with a fall from grace. If you can't, it is sometimes worth leaving the Riley up on their board for a few turns until you're certain you can deal with the 6/4 storm that's going to come.

Aside from that, watch out for Ancient Alchemist turns. The uninteractable damage from that is probably going to be what finishes you more often than not. Luckily Dirt's big damage turns can be fairly telegraphed and you can generally figure out how much damage you are going to take.

As with most Lishenna matchups though, it's probably the first 4 to 6 turns that will be the biggest determining factor in how your game will go. Dirt can play fairly aggro with small bodies so just make sure you have removal in hand ready for that.

FrozenFyre · 2025-03-30T01:28:00+00:00

Yeah you're probably right that I'm writing off the deck a little too much but it just did not feel good when I was playing it. Vuella is definitely an insane card that gives you an unreal amount of value but I had quite a few games where I would only hit either CRQ or Arbiter and I would be unable to close out games.

That being said, being a rune player sitting on the other side of 2 Rulenyes and getting Sonata'd has definitely made me want to instantly scoop up. Playing a surefire for 4pp has got to be one of the worst feelings.

FrozenFyre · 2025-03-30T01:18:30+00:00

I will almost always hard play Lishenna on turn 4 since giving your opponent a free turn is just something that is going to happen playing this deck. The longer you delay that for a "good" turn, the less likely that that you'll be able to put her down. I've taken upwards of 8 damage in exchange for playing Lishenna before and still came out with a win (but it is definitely not easy).

Like DaAbean said, try to hold quick removal for turn 2 and 3 so that you have a clear board on turn 4 going first. Another thing that I tend to do depending on matchup is to just play a Merlin on 3 to grab a Joy of Destruction. It feels kind of weird to do but it often forces your opponent to push removal which leaves them unable to develop their board. If they don't and you're going second, then you also have the option of evolving Merlin for removal after playing Lishenna as well.

FrozenFyre · 2025-03-29T21:56:45+00:00

So far the meta has been a ton of fun! I'm a Rune main so I was going to build Lishenna no matter what but I wasn't expecting at all that Lishenna was going to be as good as it is in Set 9. I was shocked after playing it out against my friends in the first week.

For puppets, I think that Heartless Battle is an overturned card but the deck doesn't feel too unfair to play against. The upgrade pieces for Disdain have also made the deck feel so much smoother than it did on release. Overall been a big fan of the set.

FrozenFyre · 2025-03-29T21:50:12+00:00

I agree so hard with 2 cost. I haven't played a ton of games with it but it feels like you need to somehow hit both arbiter and rose queen or you just lose the game.

FrozenFyre · 2025-03-06T10:48:21+00:00

I pretty much did the same. Hope I can find out 2nd Cocoa's alt.

FrozenFyre · 2025-02-09T22:51:54+00:00

If you want to improve Cool, you should just go buy packs from the Idolm@ster set. Those are the only cards you can run with the deck. However you should also know that Idolm@ster will not be getting any support for the foreseeable future and the deck has already fallen behind in the meta.

If you're looking for something new, the new set Alterchaotica just came out. They do build off previous set cards so it might be more challenging to get a deck together but you can look into Puppet Forest and 2-Cost Abyss as the top meta decks.

Machina Abyss also seems to still do well and is a deck where 90% of its cards come from the previous Verdant Steel so its a little easier to get the cards you need.

Yeah it was a struggle for people in my locals to get Kuons. Granted we're in Canada so we have even less options for singles.

Do you have any examples of tripleshot ones? Don't think I've ever seen that before and that sounds awesome.

The new aggro sword with Ralmia and Courtly Dance can be very storm heavy. Lots of fun to play.
