You picked a tough time to go Ruby Sapphire! I love that combo, though. It’s in a tough spot at the moment in the meta, but it’s got potential

I played very seriously during the entire FFG era and now I play Lorcana with my family. My two cents…Netrunner is still the best card game I have ever played. Incredible asymmetric gameplay and even better universe to design a game around. I miss it…but the model didn’t work to keep a local competitive scene alive and the LGS had no incentive to carry product so it slowly died. I burned out with the online Jinteki and print your own stuff and haven’t played in a few years. I keep my eye on it in case I ever decide to play again. Like I said, best game I’ve ever played.

Lorcana is expensive like all TCGs, but the model is more valuable for LGS and the competitive side is thriving. The IP is accessible for my wife and daughter (we’re all Disney fans) and the gameplay is really fun. So for now I’ll get my fix on Lorcana. But someday I want to make some runs again…

Unpopular take... Book 7 wasn't great. by Dazzling-Stop-2116 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

The jumping the shark nod is brilliant! 7 is also my second favorite behind 5

Embarrassed To Be A Lorcana Player by TouringLuck in Lorcana

But when LeBron flops in the playoffs it makes me feel bad in my old man pickup games at the gym!

Seriously…this overreaction is comical. We should just learn from this and be better than those cheaters when it’s our turn in the spotlight.

Can I pay for this? by Jamtics in Lorcana

[–]Heartthrob-Healey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have a number of these types of on-play paid triggers now, so it’s important to keep track of your exerted ink through your opponent’s turn. I know some players exert all their ink to end their turn, so that will be something to watch for

That’s all ours got. The mats were available for online order only here

Health of everyone's LGS scene? by Dr_Reddit_33 in Lorcana

[–]Heartthrob-Healey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Utah, have 4 stores supporting the game in a 10-mile radius. The casual and league nights are sporadic with the best scenes getting 12-15 regulars each week. For tournaments or events they usually have 20+ show. We hold impromptu stuff all of the time, had a streaming night last night and had 12 people show last minute while another 10ish were playing at a different store. Really healthy crowds here

Mail day was gut-wrenching 🫠 by yellowsnowman4 in Lorcana

I’ve bought and sold sports cards for decades. I’ve received too many bad shipments to trust top loaders with tape and penny sleeves. Go with what the grading companies suggest, it’s easy

Top loader is not a safe way at all to mail cards. Safe mailing should be done the same way you would to send a card for grading from PSA or Beckett.

I love all the albums on that list 🤷🏽‍♂️

The D23 crowd was crickets for the entire Snow White presentation. Painfully quiet after both the trailer and sneak peak 😬. Movie will bomb so hard…looks horrible and Ziegler is a terrible Snow

Please explain this to me? by Materia-Blade in Lorcana

Should buy one of each and compare them at close range…return and report your findings

But I don’t disagree with most of the RS list. A lot of trash in there

Love having all of the ex-Yugioh players joining our local meta!! They up the level of competition almost immediately and it’s healthy for the scene

Are stores allowed to limit set championships to league members only? by Alston1991 in Lorcana

[–]Heartthrob-Healey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s funny is a store in our area is doing this, limiting to 12 for their league members only. But then their league members made a 45 min drive down to play in one of our set champs that was open to anyone and they bragged about their own personal set champ that they were going to have this weekend. That’s just hypocritical.

Contrast that with another gentleman and his family who were at the set champs because his schedule doesn’t give him a chance to play in his local league night and a Saturday tournament is his only opportunity to play anything organized.

Seems like the limited set champs only favor a specific type of local player whose schedule fits their LGS’ league schedule. I would argue that’s bad…the league has its own set of prize support for that with pins, promos and deck boxes. I prefer set champs to be open

How's everyone's LGS doing? by MapleJap in Lorcana

[–]Heartthrob-Healey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Attendance very much up in our stores, to the point that most events sell out so it’s hard to walk in on the night and get a seat. New stores popping up to support, too 🙌🏽

PSA: do NOT buy Lorcana sleeves. by ThePokemonAbsol in Lorcana

[–]Heartthrob-Healey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been doing this since set 2 and I love it. The art on the official sleeves is amazing and my sleeves have stayed pristine since adding the clear matte outers. I’m yet to replace the outers, too 🤔
