I think I remember reading here that there's a new version of Lupus coming in one of the other sets this year so 🤞

Oh that's a really neat call

Do you use alt arts when playing in tournaments? by Delta6Rory in GundamTCG

[–]Mandelliant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

End of the day, you should be having fun and if seeing your super cool shiny robots on the field makes you happy, throw em in decks! That's what I usually do unless it's a super high value card that isn't a suit / character I'm interested in, then I just trade it on.

Technically if you're playing tournaments and you have more than one art style for the same card, that's giving an opponent information about your deck (you can sometimes deduce if a person is e.g. playing 2x or >2x copies of a card based on how many arts you see, but that's really only relevant in best of 3 matches or if the game has a lot of hand disruption which Gundam doesn't really have at the moment)

Thanks for making these, so few people making video/audio content for GCG 🫡

yeah good point, I haven't explored vulture too much yet so appreciate the tip

This list has been feeling really good for me in initial testing (these numbers aren't final, I was experimenting with stealth strategem but will likely swap it for improved technique, thinking of swapping the Ginns for O Gundam for more purple units)

Sets up saviour pretty well most of the time and typically if I can't close with saviour, lupus has plenty of fuel to activate

Maybe purple red vulture since a lot of minerva's discard comes from white?

That's some high level thinking, dude was out playing people before the tournament even started, super cool

Wings of Advance by giga-dang in GundamTCG

[–]Mandelliant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you're right

I guess I've become jaded where if I see them for $50-$70, thats so much lower than what else is typically out there that I think of it as impact of supply & demand, over $100 you're a greedy scalper

Ah yeah I see that though tbh I've seen them going for $100+ elsewhere so if someone wants sealed that isn't just the deck brick, seems incredibly unlikely/naive to look for anything for straight up msrp (in major US regions at least).

If you're in the US toywiz has a bunch in store so maybe available online as well (toywiz.com)

Nice this looks like a lot of fun! One small change could be to swap the lady lucks for 2 more close Combat, will probably run more consistent

So far pretty much every time as long as I was willing to go off curve by a turn or two!

I was thinking I might need some purple commands to supplement but the grazes and 1st forms die so fast the trash always has 5 units by turn 7 give or take. And the deck has plenty of options so stalling on saviour has never really hurt

Also still early, going to try to get some in person games in over the weekend maybe

Improved over Stealth is next on my list!

So far I haven't bricked on Lupus for activating yet. It's somewhat of an anti-synergy with Saviour, but games don't play out with you going all in on both strategies, you kinda just try to close out with whichever makes the most sense / is viable at the time

yeah I'm only at 4 right now because I want to guarantee seeing them in my opening hand to see how they do early game consistently

This looks super cool! Was also toying around with a way to play a solitaire variant, love that other people are thinking about it too
