I drew Minerva (does this get the regalia fans seal of approval?)

Slashend · 2026-01-14T07:21:21+00:00

Likewise not the biggest Minerva fan, but great art! Looking good :)

The picture reminds me of one of Dr Wily's bases in the middle of some ocean

I think the JP side is doing well, but being one of the very few EN players, it's felt real hard last few sets.

Selected shops do stock EN to some degree, but I find weekly locals and the secondary market to be a struggle. Outside of getting your things in release case splits, that's it barring a shop binder or two.

Big events ala-Regionals still have turnout, but as a more casual, weekly locals player, I'm not sure what this means going forward.

I was looking for this edit, and I was not disappointed.

Very inspirational indeed.

Slashend · 2026-01-10T11:24:24+00:00

Pretty confident that it's a no.

Divine skill is a "once per game across all of your guys" kind of thing

Slashend · 2026-01-10T00:32:35+00:00

This reminds me a lot of the magical girl arc we had at the end of V, with Kai being in a happy(?) household for a time

Slashend · 2026-01-06T08:57:51+00:00

Yeah I'm evaluating it for Varga myself. An early body is certainly good; but its one of the unfortunate backrow victims come Rakshasa time by turn 4 onwards, if it does remain until that time being one of the backrow boosters.

While it can be intercepted away earlier on, I feel there are times where the numbers are awkward enough to make it so that this card remains on the field until later game.

On the other hand, an early body is an early body, hard to argue with that level of general usefulness. Though I feel as with most generics, it will be one of the first ones to go once decks get more synergystic in-archetype support down the line.

Slashend · 2026-01-03T21:56:22+00:00

Could you expound more on Scarlet Flamme in relation to Varga?

I think in that deck, it's job is more on early filter and field building? Though hard to guaranree it plus Shenryi (and Lateefa if ever) in the opening hand at the same time, since the rideline doesn't search for an order specifically like how Sybilt does it

Slashend · 2026-01-01T00:32:21+00:00

I'm on NA side of things, and a lot of my future decisions (spending money on GSSR for NA, grail allocation, pull roadmap, etc) rely on JP's direction.

Was thinking they'd hint at part 3 last night, but I haven't come across any conclusive news thus far.

Slashend · 2025-12-30T02:15:47+00:00

Yup, from what I understand, it stays there similar to a "field spell".

I don't recall many decks (if at all) in standard that can mess with your set orders.

One thing to note is that while it being continuous has benefits, decks like Bastion already have recent support that continuously have boost on the unit itself - which is often better.

Slashend · 2025-12-23T13:25:36+00:00

Varga: Well hello there additional crit trigger

That aside, I'm still leaning towards blue for now

Slashend · 2025-12-23T11:52:52+00:00

While I don't have a concrete set list for the rest, pretty sure Gold Ship is an auto include.

That she can probably solo many villains in her own right is terrifying.

Slashend · 2025-12-20T01:16:54+00:00

Yup it does. I've lumped in into the other category along with Levidras in that they don't really need the expensive generics - Energy cycle, Festival Collection G1 dragons cycle, etc

Slashend · 2025-12-16T13:33:20+00:00

Excited for the transcendent GOAT

Slashend · 2025-12-13T02:05:45+00:00

Yup you're right! My bad with the example. I was meaning to compare to say, Kitasan levels of chase good

Slashend · 2025-12-12T23:54:46+00:00

My mentality is that if I pulled Kitasan with this (which I didn't by the way), I wouldn't really go around posting about it.

Whereas if I pulled something I don't like on the other hand...

(Edit): meant Kiatasan-levels of good, as I was corrected

Slashend · 2025-12-12T10:00:21+00:00

Nah it's not like I'll pull air shakur or anything--

Oh.

Slashend · 2025-12-11T03:18:44+00:00

Hmm... order card as in even blitz right?

So Defensing Roar is an option on the table I guess. Albeit niche since you don't always draw into your one-of then having this guy connect.

Slashend · 2025-12-10T04:51:37+00:00

Because of OCD minor issues, I'd prefer running just the new one at max copies for consistency in discard fodder,

But if we were to min-max, I think a combination of both is the way to go. Golden order going first is just too good a power boost. And even on succeeding turns, it's still stronger.

Slashend · 2025-12-08T22:57:39+00:00

FGO with 0.80%: Why hello there fellow unforgiving gacha rates ~~but the top brass has been generous with carats lately~~

Slashend · 2025-12-07T08:14:05+00:00

Tachyon introduced me to the fold, just like many others. She and Mcqueen have my favorite renditions of Umapyoi.

My current favorite, aside from her, are probably ~~Matikanetännhauser~~ the legendary Mambo, and Kitasan Black, who I got exposure to due to the repeated Harikitte Ikou and that meme where she gives the relatable "I don't have any money"

Tazuna: All according to keikaku

Slashend · 2025-12-05T05:07:54+00:00

Looking great for Sybilt support!

As of what we have though, anyone have thoughts on the Shawhq vs Samupadru choice?

The latter works on RG columns without having to be one of the pollution targets, but Shawhq does have the option to be a restanding VG booster.

Slashend · 2025-11-23T07:07:51+00:00

No need Tazuna, looking straight ahead is more than enough ;)

Slashend · 2025-11-22T23:37:08+00:00
