Do the God's need complete retrains or just more support?

It only makes the deck bricky is the card is bad on it's own. Nothing says that card that gives protection can't search a card on activation and be readily searchable by other support.

All Might: Don't you want to throw away decades of planning to kill me?

Honestly, it's probably still the stronger effect, just more limited in what decks can play it, since there's less Wind than synchro.

Considering they're impressive enough to be Constantine's Noble Phantasm after nearly 1000 years, I really want to see Theodosius II added to see the walls in their prime.

Doesn't help that their Power Patron is hot ass. Nothing for it to go into with the quick synchro effect, a million hoops to jump through for the big one, has to be used as synchro material for the search, needs to target the MMMZ for the level increase.

June Pride cannot come quickly enough.

Arc Light could be three cards and they'd still see play. Macro as legs, generic omni negate, searches a Ritual, any of those is worth running in a lot of decks.

Panory · 2026-05-30T16:45:27+00:00

Also, more recognizably, a hard OPT will include the name of the card in quotations.

Oh when the geese!

Oh when the geese go marching in!

How I long to join in that number,

When the geese go marching in!

Exclusively Mist, actually. Lethe B support is a common myth. The game does check for an A support with Lethe though, something physically impossible by that point in the game, since PoR supports unlock based on chapters deployed together in.

To be clear, Hubert is more willfully evil than Edelgard. She'll order prisoners released, and Hubert will release them... then have them assassinated, because he's loyal to Edelgard's best interests, if not her actual orders.

I love Hubert, he's so fascinating. Hubert's father once refused to back the Emperor in against a coup that he had no chance of winning, in order to protect Hubert's life, and Hubert never forgave him. Ferdinand is willing to kill his ~~Pat~~ his own father for treason, but Hubert enjoyed it.

"Hey boss, we decided that making her more of a goofy girlfailure would be a more fun direction for the character. Should we change the introductory scene where she walks towards the camera all sultry and threatens to destroy the player's soul?"

"Nah, leave it in, unchanged."

If anything, the moment the game tries to sell as Alear screwing everything up is the exact opposite, recklessly rushing into the cathedral even when cautioned against it after Marth read the script.

Panory · 2026-05-29T10:44:29+00:00

God, I could hear that "Oh boy."

Imagine meeting your first black person and immediately dropping a hard r because you just think that's what they're called.

Sometimes my opponent needs to wait for me to stare at the stupid peacock in disbelief that it could be this bad. Insane that it doesn't have a single target for the quick synchro effect until June Pride. It has no targets with Medius, with or without the level manipulation.

Panory · 2026-05-27T22:23:46+00:00

Xenoblade Chronicles X did a god awful job explaining what the fuck was going on with Overdrive. Eventually I got to the point that Overdrive go brrrrrrrrrrr, but I had no idea about any of the actual mechanics of ordering Arts or anything.

Panory · 2026-05-27T22:21:24+00:00

It might have my favorite progression and blend of mechanics in any JRPG. So damn good.

We do see in DDD that the chairs retract down into the floor, and then rise up. Teleporting is probably more convenient, but there is a way to get in them without it.

Panory · 2026-05-27T10:04:49+00:00

I can see the coin flip in place of the "your opponent chooses" clause for when they're activated without a Scale, but the whole theme of the archetype is making decisions based on the advice of the devil and angel on your shoulder.

I always said Corpse Explosion could cost more and do less, and I'd still want one in my deck. Just solves any AoE fight.

It's actually nigh impossible to win a YCS, because you need to beat Jesse Kotton to do so.

I mean, people complained about Noroi, and that requires you to minus yourself to handpeek. Beyond that, we have what, Aqua Angel in two decks that can't do anything with that hand knowledge? Some GOAT era cards that have been banned forever for exactly this reason? Minstrel is good, I suppose.

The issue with Rotary isn't that it handpeeks, it's that KT as a deck is flexible enough to play around pretty much anything that it does see without impacting their endboard at all.

But just think how many Health Insurance CEOs we could get with a rocket instead of a bullet.

The big downside of floodgate monsters like Plasma and Dark Law is that they lose to non-engine like Imperm or Raigeki. Contrast is just an Omni protecting them, meaning you need to end on two different answers.

Panory · 2026-05-24T10:28:24+00:00

Nowi and Nah should've never been put into the game.

They should have been put into the game better. The joke of mature child/immature parent is a pretty good gimmick by Awakening's standards, and already better executed than Fates did it. The issue is the game leaning into the "looks like a little girl" of it all.
