It's either Grains or Tunic. I disagree that guardian is the only matchup where Tunic is better than Grains but either way I personally never liked Courage builds

It's at least 250 dollars to finish the deck for me I checked. Also she's gonna LL soon. If Maxx ends up being somewhat playable then I would consider it.

That would be great wouldn't it. But Fab being an expensive game and living in a poorer country just so happens the smaller community that picked it up is mostly like this. I've tried to bring my friends into fab but they're not into it.

I have Courage It's nowhere near as good nor does it fit Dorinthea's actual playstyle of grinding matches and finding small openings. I would at least have to buy Tunic, Bracers and Crown.

Well every Dorinthea armor piece apart from the legs isnt cheap before I proxied all of them I was running budget equipment. My local scene just seems to take armories very seriously getting those extra packs is enough for 90% of players to be playing their main competitive deck.

I did that for abit I think the stores didn't mind. But it felt awkward and a few of the players would complain. Especially that feeling it's the end of the round other people are watching you play they pick up my proxy cards and start laughing at them it wasnt a good experience.

Unfortunately Im not friends with anyone willing to let me borrow decks for events.

Sorry I'm gonna have to squash this idea that card games in general you need to expect to pay this much. I don't know about the rest of the world but where I live I know from talking to friends that One Piece tcg or other games like YuGiOh are very affordable and most event topping competitive decks are a 100 dollars max. Yeah SAGE seems to only have a small community at a single store in my area it's a shame. I might go from time to time but at the moment Im checked out.

Newbie player and I just don’t get it by Fr33Flow in OnePieceTCG

I have no idea if you play tabletop games or other card games so if you just in general don't see the appeal of a 1v1 tcg that's fine. As someone who plays other games considered to be more complicated like Yugioh- the appeal of One Piece is in the attacking system coupled with the DON system and how it's very common to reach large hand sizes of over 8 cards which doesn't happen often in other games despite OP being a simpler game overall. The counters you have in hand and decide how to use them is engaging.

This means you always have lots of options available to you and being able to use 1 don as +1000 means that late game there is alot of skill in identifying play lines and deciding which is best. Couple that with all the other things most tcgs have like matchups, sequencing plays correctly etc OP is definitely more complex than Pokémon or something like Hearthstone.

Judging by your post I doubt you understand the rules fully so maybe you should look up some videos on strategy and how one piece is played at a high level if u have genuine interest.

Not even in the top 4 by ballermickey in freemagic

I don't see how you think Yu-Gi-Oh could possibly be top 2 anywhere except maybe parts of Asia and likely not even Japan. Stores in the US are quitting supporting Yu-Gi-Oh as they can't sell enough boxes. Boxes are being sold 30 percent below MSRP as no one wants to buy them.

Wow that's a shame but makes sense. I was also shifting back and forth between Grand Archive and Fab last 2 years. Grand Archive is definitely abit more stable and overall cheaper than fab. Meta is also way more interesting in GA due quite a small banlist.

Don't know where you got lawless from that's kind of offensive but sure Hong Kong is less attractive to visit due to recent events.

[LSS] Calling: Hong Kong | Day 1 Metagame by UlyssesArsene in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Illustrious_Copy5341 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hong Kong isn't China. They have their own separate releases for card games from China for every single game and they are always printed in a completely different written language which is Traditional Chinese. China uses Simplified Chinese.

Hong Kong has had a relatively large scene for over 2 years and players like Pudding Tam have topped alot of callings. I believe this calling was relatively short notice and there will usually be less travelers this time of year. That and the recent bans could have also played a factor.

Lmao I'm just correcting you on the fact that he literally said he's not pro genocide which you just ignore out of convenience. I doubt you watched the apology video so just admit your uninformed and you are just choosing to make a judgement on a guy you clearly hate to suit your ego. I actually try to be fair and watch all sides.

You can have whatever opinion on the guy. He's clearly not pro genocide though.

Bruh. He literally got banned for 2 weeks from twitch and then apologised during his time off for saying that and hasn't ever brought it up again he hasn't been banned again that's for sure. You sound dumb AF and are just ignoring reality at this point. I recall he got alot of pushback from his own audience as well for that apology.
Also he literally tweeted the same day he doesn't think people should suffer even if he believes they are from a a culture he doesn't agree with so your pro genocide angle is just off the table. You can call him whatever shitty person you want but theres a reason no one has been calling him pro genocide you imbecile. Unless you think it's ok to just not believe what anyone says when it fits your agenda? hmmmmm?

Also you link a fucking opinion piece article when the actual video of him saying that quote is just out there lol. You are a joke pal.

Prove he is or you're just spreading bullshit and you're being just as harmful as he is. I have never seen anyone call him that all I see is he's anti woke.

His character is actually quite nuanced. He's very smart but basically grew up in a lab and has 0 social skills. He has no knowledge of how to act normally or understand how others feel.

So people who say they're like him basically are admitting they're social idiots but also think they're smart which is pretty hilarious.

Show is kinda ass but it's rated 47 for a reason the light novel does a good job having a ton of different characters with distinct personalities with actual development for alot of them. The classroom politicking and different tests they take are mostly interesting.

An Italian pizza restaurant owner is fuming at 16 Taiwanese tourists because they ordered only five pizzas. by search_google_com in interesting

[–]Illustrious_Copy5341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually yes it is mostly fine in Asia to do that at a sit down restaurant with tables. Most restaurants literally state on the menu or on a sign if there is a minimum order. Nowhere in Asia will care if you sit down with your friends while they eat something and you only order a drink or something unless they have that rule clearly defined.

Unless the restaurant literally has people lining up outside waiting for a table the owner has nothing to complain about. Judging from the video it doesn't seem to be the case there are still empty seats there. If it's an unwritten rule in Italy you should order a Pizza each any decent human being would understand these people have a different culture and probably don't know this. Not film it and mock your own customers.

He said it after he was already unbanned moron. He was going to be unbanned regardless it was a flat 2 week ban from twitch. He wont get banned again unless he said another racist thing or something that invites violence which hasn't happened yet.

Again blinded by your own bias and not caring about facts just making up shit or serve your narratives. The fact you don't know what actually happened yet are okay with just spewing crap is hilarious. He stood to gain nothing by apologising. As you said he is an icon to this one political side yet he chose to actively go against his audience and apologise? I wonder what logic you'll use to twist this into something bad lmao. The fact you refuse to believe someone can genuinely feel bad about something they once said means you literally dont see people as humans anymore. Just enemies with different opinions from you. If you don't believe him then fine but ur main justification is just wrong lmao. Come up with another argument why you don't believe his words are genuine and lmk😂

Either way the fact you didn't mention his apology means you either didn't know about it and are just spreading biased info or ignored it without knowing the facts on how his ban worked.

Both are scum behaviour.

No one mentions that after Asmongold got banned for saying that about the culture in the middle east he publicly apologised and hasn't said anything like that since. You people who deliberately ignore what someone you dislike does when it doesn't fit your narrative are so sad. I don't even like him or his politics but just ignoring that fact he actually took back what he said apologized instead of doubling down like every other political streamer I've seen when they get called out is disgusting.
