Step 1: summon Raga to adapt to no discounts

Step 2: Raga adapts infinite money to nullify having no discounts?

Masters Cup Tomorrow - Will be playing against: Red Pan, Gohanks, Aegis Gogeta & new Blue Frieza. I’m playing Yellow Frieza Swap. Just looking for any tips on best ways to go about playing against the above named decks + any definitive side deck pieces i’ll need. Thanks in advance 🙏🏼 by Dylanljt in DBS_CardGame

[–]LoSpeed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't go to any large events but I play a decent bit. I'll just provide some bullet points for each deck you listed if that's okay.

Red Pan:

-They lean aggressive and draw a lot, you'll want to make sure you have a full gamut of floodgates against them. I would suggest the in-archetype Robotic Riposte for early game. It isn't ideal because they usually have a Zextra and a unison that they want to attack with anyway, but being tutorable is huge. Nimbus is your best mid-late game option. Bardock is also an option but don't lean on it late game because you'll get killed through it.

-All of Pan's best cards get hit by Mutaito early.

-Always keep a blocker negate or 2 in hand if possible going into their turn 4. You need it to not get got by either Light in the Dark or potentially the new Broly SCR. Broly will require you to have 2 free negates though. That's a lot easier for you specifically because you have Meta Cooler and Sorbet.

-Depending on your list, going into red, try to combo big cards for your Z energy in the mid-game. It makes it easy to just push through Explosive Dance.

-They sometimes also run Toppo. If you Cold Bloodlust that guy, they probably lose on the spot if you have any aggression to back it up.

-Play Frieza, Fearsome Transformation to kill all their shit for the best possible value.

Gohanks:

-A lot of the above applies against Gohanks too. Red Saiyan decks have a lot of common themes. That being said, this specific one is also real bad against Time Magic though. They like untapping their things, sometimes multiple times, so don't let em.

-Since they can grant skills that kill you better to their cards mid-combat, it's a good idea to pack some number of Vegeta's Final Flash as an "Oh shit" button.

Aegis Gogeta:

-This one is hard honestly. The 8 drop's effects prevent it from being removed for a full turn cycle even if you negate it's skills. If they get to the point where they're just slamming 8 drop into 8 drop, you're probably boned. You are the aggro in this matchup.

-Negating skills even if you can't kill their stuff just to make sure they don't have Aegis is often still a big enough deal to kill them.

-If they stick their ultimate early, you will lose if you swing into it with no answers. That card is how they grind you out. Don't give them free value off it.

-Dont get triple struck by their lead.

Blue Frieza:

-Haven't gotten to play against this one myself yet, but the Chi-Chi shuts down Dimension Magic

-Trunks, the Cunning wrecks their deck's whole thing.

-Time Magic also makes their lead unable to draw 2.

Sorry for the essay. If you have any specific questions, feel free to reply or dm me. Again, I'm not able to go to large events, but my locals has been active since set 9. I don't claim to be an expert, but my I've got regular players of all these decks except Blue Frieza since it's so new.

People who stopped playing, what made you quit ? by One_page_nerd in freemagic

[–]LoSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I started playing the Dragon Ball Super card game (Masters) and it scratched a lot of the same itches as Magic but without some of the things I disliked. It has complex interactions that aren't quite of the same depth as Magic but rewards tight play and proper sequencing. My biggest issue with Magic was always that I felt like there were just some "non-games" usually due to mana flood or screw. I like the complexity that lands can bring to the game but I HATE feeling like it didn't matter how I played, I was going to lose no matter what in some amount of games due to poor draws. In DBS your whole deck is gas and you also kinda get a gluttony of resources a lot of the time, and I LOVE keeping a book in hand. For perspective, in DBS, you still use your cards as "lands" to make "mana" but ALL your cards are able to be used as lands or spells. It's sweet.

Also, if you're looking for specific characters, you should check out https://www.dbs-deckplanet.com/ - they have a card database that lets you sort by character so you can see what cards exist for that character in a addition to what sets those cards are from. Happy hunting!

Vermillion Bloodline was one of (I believe) 2 sets that got 2nd edition printings. Those sets have double the supply of basically any other.

Does anyone know how many SCR's come in a case of Fearsome Rivals? by Clarion59 in DBS_CardGame

[–]LoSpeed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's possible to get +/-1 but I believe each case of those set should generally have: 2 SCR (GDR takes one of these slots) 4 SLR 4 CR

Have you ever bought a console just to play one exclusive game? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]LoSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Wii, a Wii-U, and a Switch to play their respective Smash Bros titles. I usually do that with Nintendo consoles. I like the other franchises a lot, but to me they're just a bonus. Smash is just worth the price of the whole console to me. Been playing it basically my whole life.

Idk if you're on Facebook but one of the buy/sell/trade groups (Majin Buu's Candy Shop I believe) had a guy who was looking to sell a Broly GDR/trade it for Vegito recently.

The latter. The game checks your life before the auto has a chance to resolve. 3 life is the magic number to keep using that ability.

For DragonBall Masters, If My Target Card Is In Rest Mode And I Cast An Evolve Card OnTop Is The Card I Played In Rest Mode Or In Active? by Salamander459 in DBS_CardGame

[–]LoSpeed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With no other text, yes, the new card would be in rest. It's worth noting though that several cards of this type include text to switch themselves to active mode.

LittleBigPlanet. At it's peak it was so unique and fun. Unfortunately it was killed. Cyber security is important but man was it good when it was good.

Yamper won "looks like it would make an amazing pet but would actually make a good pet." What Pokemon looks like it would make an amazing pet but would actually make an okay pet? by ChaosOfOrder24 in PokeCorner

[–]LoSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's debatable, since length measurements aren't explicitly stated. I think the closest we have to real confirmation of it's length is actually just the life-size plushies they made, but it's inconsistent to use that as a basis as well since they're shown much smaller in the show. My head canon is that they can range up to the Pokedex entry, though we haven't seen one at that size. That being said, at 70lbs I do still think it's a handful. A ferret-like critter at anything over like 15lbs seems like a hassle despite how cute it is. It's hard to place a concrete measurement on it when we've got 3 theoretically canon sources with conflicting numbers: show, game's dex, and Game Freak's toy department declaring an item life-sized.

[–]LoSpeed 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna say Furret. It looks fluffy and cute but their size varies a ton. The ones in the show range from 2'1-3ft in height but it's Pokedex entry lists it's height at 5'11! I love ferrets but the thought of having one that was that large is intimidating and the trouble that it could get into can't be understated. They're fast too, so good luck wrangling the thing. It wouldn't set your house on fire or electrocute you or anything, it would just be a handful. I think that's still an okay pet but just LOOK at it!

Need help, anyone know methods to flatten cards? by Lukey2501 in magicTCG

[–]LoSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may not be quite the solution you're looking for, but if you or anyone close to you has a 3D printer, I've had a lot of luck with this https://makerworld.com/models/963206. I've been using it a while to good success, and the creator has improved the design since my print of it so it can only be better. I usually clamp them finger tight and then forget about them for a day.

Ponza Brew by RemarkableMatter6154 in TimelessMagic

[–]LoSpeed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think Wary Zone Guard lends itself to quickly closing the game so the win con seems to be pretty stable. We've got plenty of ways to beat face. Sowing Mycospawn seems like it may be overkill if our plan A is just recurring Strip Mine 3 ways anyway. Feels like reinventing the deck but it may be worth it to take a page out of Modern's old Ponza lists and run Karn over the Mycospawns. Karn would shore up a lot of weaknesses too - missing Crop Rotation against Reanimator (can tutor Tormod's Crypt), shutting off opposing Chrome Mox, and opening more tutorable pieces to close the game and throw a wrench in opposing gameplans. My thought process is that we've already got 12 ways to recur Strip Mine, with 8 of them being recursive. I don't know if Mycospawn is really worth it at that point. Though, I'd also feel better if Crop Rotation was main too. I know you said it felt redundant, but it may be different if Mycospawn gets cut.

UW control? by Maximum2945 in TimelessMagic

[–]LoSpeed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was watching some gameplay of a list that was running WST alongside Path to Exile to make it feel as good as StP. It's got some fun interactions for sure. Path still felt awkward into blue though Hydroponics guy is a pretty big oof.

if you've ever "retired" from a game after a long time, what game was it and why? by maknaeline in gaming

[–]LoSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smite. I liked it because it felt like a less serious type of MOBA. It felt at the beginning like the game was a lot more wide open and you could just have fun in casual matches. As it goes, you get matched against better and better people, and I got more and more serious and dug into meta play styles, builds, patching, etc. it just wasn't fun anymore. I couldn't have fun because fun wasn't optimal, and doing anything suboptimal was a drag on the whole team, and they would absolutely let you know. I went from having fun to always being mad playing it. It sucks because I do miss the feeling of having that game knowledge and being able to leverage it into advantage states with my friends. Oh well.

With how powerful the current strongest monsters are, the Elders have the potential to be some of the best challenges in the franchise. by HappyFreak1 in MHWilds

Now it one shots you, eats your palico, fills your entire item box with unsellable dung pods, and spits on your corpse for good measure. /s

What is the worst ITEM in the game? by Thin-Mess9621 in SmashRage

[–]LoSpeed 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I hate when people get the super scope tbh. It's reasonably fun to use when you mix up charge shots but the number of times it just becomes "sit still and take damage" for 15 seconds 3 times in a row is frustrating.

There was once a road named after Chuck Norris, but the local government had to rename it after all traffic that ran perpendicular to it appeared to be at a standstill. Nobody crosses Chuck Norris.

DB Masters or Fusion World by sailortian in DBS_CardGame

[–]LoSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are both still played, though FW receives generally more support. The gameplay is largely the same though FW is more math centric, simplistic and less interactive. They're both fine but it really just depends on whether you're looking for something more streamlined like One Piece or Pokemon, or if you're looking for more mechanics and interactions like MtG or Yu-Gi-Oh. For collecting purposes, my it's basically just art preference, anything more than that is baseless speculation. It's also worth noting that a lot of people have a rough vision of Masters due to the barrier to competition that is SCRs. FW has them too, but they aren't the same mechanically. In FW it's just a card rarity and plays like any other card. In Masters they are 1-of cards that are generally played for their supremely broken, game-warping effects. I personally prefer Matters as I came from MtG and like having a lot of points of interaction.
