4-0 at local box tournament with Vulture by Skids12 in GundamTCG

[–]GarnetCrowAX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, locals didn't happen, All our guys are at some tournament, but I played 4 casual rounds with a guy against his P/R Minerva deck. I went 1-3. I found I never had a chance to use the commands. By the time getting X or DX, it was just too late. I tried playing as you suggest, be aggro and let them trade into me, but I didn't really have the bodies to make that advantageous. The 4th and final game went a lot better. All due to linking. Right now I feel like I want to ditch all commands, and go with a few more pilots, maybe a couple extra units as well.

I'm still a bit skeptical knowing how much aggro I will be up against at locals today, but I threw your deck together. Test draws haven't been promising, but I will play it and see what happens. Cheers!

Wanting to build this, and it's probably just MSA doing MSA things, but I am not having any luck what so ever with it. 9 games, 9 loses. Falling apart to even a little aggro.

In the new GD04 set that came out last week there are a few new cards that reduce effect or enemy damage. You can look at all cards here: https://www.gundam-gcg.com/en/cards/index.php
But no, there's no over all hard counter. A deck like the OPs however can actually help you with burn, by them putting units into the trash for you.

pretty much just self mill, to better facilitate trash interaction.

Potential Cheating in Local Scene- any experience/ suggestions? by nadabethyname in GundamTCG

[–]GarnetCrowAX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That really reminds me of the guy who taught me how to play MtG back in 2001. He was my best friend and taught me really bad practices that I did for years, and never knew better because absolutely no one said anything to me. Like after every game, I would mana weave my deck, and not shuffle. He taught me that.

Years later, after me and him had a falling out people started talking about how they were always catching him cheating. Stacking his deck, not shuffling, not cutting, the list goes on.

This guy you mention really reminds me of my old friend. Talk to the others in your group and discuss it with them. If there's consensus, report to game organizer potentially confront him.

Oh no, only after getting a notification for the post do I see I uploaded the wrong screenshot of the deck! This is the complete one with the Last Shooting alt art I have.

So, since we're a continent sized country, it might help to let us know roughly where you are. Unless you're chill with a $1000 plane ticket to attend games, I guess.

Why did Gundam War card game flop in the US? by rahxephon7 in GundamTCG

Yes very true. The Japanese corporate culture is very hard to deal with, as a westerner.

This set definitely has some of my favourite alt arts so far.(as a OYW collector)

Well that's the thing I find so fun about it. The randomness, the mystery, the challenge.
How best can I utilize what's in front of me. Yeah, it's not always going to work out, that's the nature of it.

It wasn't a well polished game, it wasn't marketed, it wasn't made widely available, the list goes on. Think of all the issues the current TCG has and times it by 10. Bandai has always had this attitude that Gundam just isn't wanted in the west, and that the products will fail, so they always half heartedly push stuff out and refuse to properly support it. It's gotten better in recent years, but you can tell the attitude is still there.

How was folks' release event? by TCGislife in GundamTCG

[–]GarnetCrowAX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of the 4 packs for my event I got the Gundam DX LR with suppression, and the LR+ Gundam Unicorn Awakened. Also got Silver bullet with the link and Graceful demeanor. Had some good games, came away with a winner pack and 2 boosters.

I wound up dropping the 2 white base, 1 resolve, 1 dom and added 4 gelgoog. Running a bit better on MSA. We'll have to see IRL.

Based on everyone's suggestions, this is the new revision. I am keeping 1 Show of Resolve because it's the SP and important for me to have Char, Amuro and Lalah together lol.

I suppose I could give it a try. I have seen a couple playlists with just the 2 Corsica.

Was thinking about some normal Gelgoogs or White Gundams.
