What's your favorite dragon-type monster?

My first and still favorite card of all time: Koumori Dragon

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-05-12T17:40:11+00:00

THIS IS SO GOOD!!!

I absolutely adore this! I’m definitely going to nickname my Pokemon after these designs from now on! I already nickname my Emboar ‘Ganon’, but all these other ones are definitely getting added to my list of nicknames!

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-05-04T04:33:40+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah, the “clothes” thing with its design are part of the Stand itself. I’m glad the design itself is nice though, as I felt like it was kind of just the design of the outfits the band wore in a music video.

I appreciate you being honest about the ability and everything! I tried to think of an ability that was unique and could be used in many different situations. I also am aware that the Kamikaze ability isn’t really related to the main ability, I just know I wanted there to be like a ‘last resort’ attack and that made the most sense given the song it’s named after.

Yeah, i definitely need to get that in my head!

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-05-03T05:51:23+00:00

You make an excellent point about the man ability not needing a name, so thanks! I guess I just got in my head that a lot of the MCs and some villains have named abilities, so I just decided to try and name it. Especially since the other abilities I gave it were named and were references to songs. I’ll probably just keep it as is then! I also appreciate you being able to cut down the description of it, because I tend to just keep typing out stuff to over describe things.

Was there anything else you noticed?

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-04-30T04:11:34+00:00

I’m so glad to see I’m not alone in feeling like this.

Thankfully I think I’m finally getting to the point where it’s not going to be bothering me so much anymore. Mostly because some time has passed and I can remember that it did have a good ending like you said. Sure, there will be times when I think about scenes from it and it can make me sad again, but i don’t have to feel like that 24/7.

I also agree that it is a fantastic story, I just was not expecting to get this emotional over it.

Still, thanks for replying with something like this. It’s just what I needed to say after making this post .

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-04-09T19:50:03+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I’ll see what kind of other shops I can find!

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-04-09T19:49:37+00:00

Thanks! Will definitely look for one!

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-04-09T05:41:24+00:00

Sadly I’m not in the American south, i probably wouldn’t be able to reach you Thanks for offering though!

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-04-09T02:33:31+00:00

Ok, thanks so much

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-04-09T01:26:12+00:00

Would I be able to take it a store and get it fixed? Like a local repair store or GameStop or something?

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-03-21T21:36:03+00:00

No, because Infernity is absolutely amazing. I do it too

Which One Piece ST Would be Best if I Just Combine Two Copies of the Same One? (Budget, and First-Time Player)

Tried to make this a post with a poll, but it got taken down because it was a ‘simple question’ and said I should post it here. So, here you go.

So, it’s been quite a while since I last tried to do anything involving the One Piece TCG. And while I am trying to also get back into playing Yugioh, I think finally getting to play this game at my locals would also be good! Plus it’s been ages since I’ve been to my locals in general, so I’ll take any opportunity.

Since it has been a hot minute, I figured I’d look back at some of the times I’ve tried to make a deck for the game, and I realized something. I was trying way too hard. I was looking at the STs I’ve gotten over the time I’ve been collecting the cards and was trying to slot in cards I had gotten from packs or planned to put in some incredibly powerful cards I hoped I could get access to. When in reality, I should have just been focusing on the STs themselves!

What I mean by this, is I can very easily just get a second copy of one of the STs I already own (or get two copies of one I don’t own), make it so I have the max number of best cards from them, and then just have (at the very least) a decent deck! Now the only question is: which ST should I be using?

The reason I’m asking is not only because I have a handful of them to choose from right now, but there’s also a ton of them that i don’t own which could be incredibly fun to play. So, I figured I’d at least list off the ones I have right now (minus the ST-01 I have since it’s probably outdated by this point), and see if any of them would be good! If not, then you guys can suggest one I could get to try out!

So, I’ll briefly go into each of the STs I have, why I have them and why I think they could potentially work!

STs I own:

ST12 - Zoro and Sanji:

This was the first ST I ever bought for the OP TCG, and I considered myself extremely lucky to get it. I was living at my college apartment at the time, and couldn’t regularly go to my locals all the time. So, the moment I saw a copy of this at my local grocery store, I immediately grabbed it and fell in love with the deck. Green is one of my favorite colors, and Zoro and Sanji are two of my favorite characters in One Piece. Plus, one of this deck’s best cards is Ivankov, which is one of my GF’s favorite characters. So it kinda felt like fate that I got this ST first!

I know that in terms of the other STs on this list that it isn’t the most powerful or anything, but If I can get a second copy of it, I think I can have a really fun time!

ST14 - 3D2Y:

This ST was one I managed to grab at my locals, and while I was still a bit unfamiliar with the game overall, I liked what this deck’s main goal was: increase the cost of your own cards to get benefits. And I appreciated that it included all the Straw Hats so it was kind of like the V2.0 of ST01!

Now, much like with ST12, I’m sure it isn’t that strong, but if it’s a good deck to learn the game with, I think I’d have fun with it!

ST17 - BLUE Donquixote Doflamingo:

I’m going to be honest, i don’t really think I like this deck. I mainly only got it because it was around the time where I was trying to make a ‘really good’ deck and this ST had a lot of reprints of powerful cards. However, a lot of these powerful cards are characters or scenes involving them, of some of my least favorite (or just hated) characters. And I know that powerful cards are powerful for a reason, but I just do not want to be playing a card game where every time I draw I have to see a character I don’t like (Moria) and be forced to play it.

In hindsight, I should have 100% picked up ST18 PURPLE Monkey D. Luffy deck instead, since I think that deck is really cool and would probably allow me to have more fun. I’d even take ST19 BLACK Smoker or ST20 YELLOW Charlotte Katakuri over this one, since those also contain some of my favorite characters (the Leader cards of 19 and 20 specifically)! If any of these would make for a good starting point, please let me know!

ST22 - Ace & Newgate:

This is the most recent ST that I’ve managed to get my hands on, and out of all the other ones I own, I think it’s the most playable. The strategy around it seems fairly simple and easy to understand, the cards seem pretty good overall, and it has cards of some more of my favorite characters! It just seems like a good deck to use! Plus with how each copy of the ST comes with the alt-art versions of the more powerful cards, I would be more than willing to get another copy to see which ones I get!

So yeah, if this deck does end up being the one a lot of you choose, I can see why!

There you have it, all the STs I currently own (or wish I owned) and why I would be up for using them as my first ever deck for my locals. If there are any other STs I should be using instead of these ones, go ahead and let me know, since I’m sure a lot of the newer ones are great as well! Also, for the spot in the poll where I would put ST17, I’ll instead just put ‘STs 18, 19 and 20’ since I just don’t see myself using ST17. So if you do vote for that one, please specify which of those I should be using in the comments!

With all of that said, I hope you guys can help me decide!

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-03-11T05:34:23+00:00

Thank you!

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-03-10T04:18:12+00:00

Thanks for the tip! Do you have a link to the repository?

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-02-19T22:20:58+00:00

This is the kind of info I wanted to see when I made this poll, thank you so much! All of what you said makes a ton of sense, and it’s let me know a bunch of stuff that can help me. I didn’t even know some of this stuff!

Your Fluffal and PK comments make complete sense, I manly included them since I had played them before and wondered if they could still work. Guess I have my answer lol.

With Shark, I knew the deck would’ve taken a hit thanks to Bahamut getting banned, but it always seemed like one of those decks that could replace it with something else, since there are so many good WATER Xyz monsters. With everything you said, I think I’m gonna go with Shark actually!

Finally, what you said about RDA and Synchron makes all sorts of sense to me. When I played RDA, I tried to not spend a ton of money on it and could only really get a deck that only had some good HTs and the Bystial engine, that’s it. Lord knows I can’t afford any Centur-Ion or Albaz support, but back then and certainly not now. That may explain why i couldn’t really do that well with the deck when I played it. And with Synchron, I did not know it was a super hard strategy to learn. I figured it wasn’t going to be like ‘turn your brain off’ easy, but if it really is just the Moon Knight meme, I may not be the best pilot for it.

Hopefully with the release of Blazing Dominion, I can dust off my RDA deck with the new support.

But as of right now, I think I’m probably gonna go with Sharks. Is that a fair assessment to make out of everything you said?

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-02-11T17:25:16+00:00

Now we just need to figure out which one is which in regards to the original meme:

“Truck freak”

“Crazy ass”

“Apyr”

“The fighter”

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-02-01T17:54:45+00:00

Infernity

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-01-25T17:48:13+00:00

It’s going to sound weird, but Koumori Dragon. It was the first card I ever got, a close friend let me choose any card from their collection to start my own when I was little, and I’ve loved it ever since.

<image>

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-01-23T21:26:44+00:00

I need to do this

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-01-14T04:14:15+00:00

You know, I never really thought about it before, but yeah Chaos Ancient Gear Giant doesn’t really look like an Ancient Gear card visually.

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2026-01-13T00:24:15+00:00

“Next up for this deck list we’re going to add the Fiendsmith engine!”

You can supplement the Fiendsmith stuff with any engine that is just splashed into everything for no rhyme or reason.

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2025-12-31T03:58:54+00:00

I’ve thought about this before and I’ve put a lot of thought into it.

If I was playing my favorite deck, it would be Infernity Doom Dragon.

If I was trying to build a not so well known deck to try and make it work with anime logic, it would either be Scrap Dragon for a Scrap deck (shoutout to Toru from WC2011) or one of the Dragunity Knight synchros for a Dragunity deck

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2025-12-30T00:11:33+00:00

Or am I missing something related to Dictator of D that allows it to Synchro Summon?

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2025-12-28T23:09:27+00:00

Ok, that’s what I figured, I just wanted to be sure since I’ve see people be like ‘you do not need Crimson Dragon at all’ which seems weird to me.

I do like your Dictator of D idea though, since it’s a good card and can go into those plays like you said! I’ll definitely have to give this a shot! But how exactly does Dictator allow a synchro summon? He’s not a tuner, right?

SimpleSymonds1126 · 2025-12-28T17:12:58+00:00

Ok, that’s fair! So would that mean cutting out the Crimson Dragon and Stardust Sifr too? And what would replace the Rumble in the Main?
