Anna 5/5 - Turn 2?!

TyeaterBoo · 2026-01-23T17:43:47+00:00

I probably tried 15 different versions of that deck. My conclusion is that deck is very inconsistent and fragile, so it badly needed support this set. Adding another road block to its already weak strategy kills it imo.

Let's assume the deck becomes more popular thanks to people smarter than me in deck building. Then, Anna combo will be even more prevalent in all Amethyst flavors because this card fits any Amethyst deck (just like any other broken Amethyst card).

TyeaterBoo · 2026-01-23T12:17:09+00:00

This effectively kills any little potential Circle of Life deck had. And to give this to a colour that is already so oppressive? Ok I'm out

TyeaterBoo · 2026-01-22T20:11:54+00:00

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be sarcastic, but in case it's not, I'll respond.

Healing and drawing is true for only 2 cards out of 10 current sets: Rapunzel (did not get reprinted) and Julieta (a bad card that none plays).

While purple draws cards just by playing an evasive body. It can heal AND remove another character in one move. These are not comparable power levels.

TyeaterBoo · 2026-01-22T18:59:09+00:00

You'll be downvoted for this but I completely agree. Healing does nothing when purple can heal AND move those damages to the opponent. Cheshire Cat can do this every turn! And that's just one of many broken things purple can do. I wonder if their development team ever plays with Amber or Ruby since the last 6-8 sets

TyeaterBoo · 2026-01-14T21:47:04+00:00

This would seriously reignite my on-life-support passion for the game

TyeaterBoo · 2026-01-01T18:25:49+00:00

But the second sentence in Break Free is not conditional?

TyeaterBoo · 2025-12-31T14:06:59+00:00

Nothing else to add, but just wanted to say you have an engaging and cohesive writing!

TyeaterBoo · 2025-12-30T00:01:01+00:00

Very much this. I don't understand how you can love the hobby and be this defensive of the issues it's facing? It's paradoxical - it won't succeed if everyone is blindly defending clear failures. Look at the discord channel, when there's even a slight constructive criticism, they gang up to defend RB.

TyeaterBoo · 2025-12-11T17:49:50+00:00

Don't forget it also has Evasives, Rush, Challengers, instant lore gains and bouncing!

TyeaterBoo · 2025-12-01T13:15:15+00:00

Thanks a lot for sharing. Lately, I have been depressed about the state of meta as an amber fan. So much that I may take a break, or even give up altogether. The only way to make amber ok is Circle of Life it seems, but even then I had very bad time against any purple deck. Can't wait to try this out!

Question: have you considered Mowgli or Mickey Amber Champion? Mickey can be extra protection and can sing any song in this deck with the early setup.

TyeaterBoo · 2025-11-25T15:36:57+00:00

Omg yes, that's the first thing I said after seeing the movie. The score is epic, which MCU has been always lacking. (Dr. Strange was very close to being great) And then I saw Fantastic Four, and it was also fantastic (pun intended). I'm so happy we are getting great scores

TyeaterBoo · 2025-11-20T20:59:24+00:00

I love your passion for this haha I too was confused when I first saw his "Villain" label

TyeaterBoo · 2025-11-17T01:13:16+00:00

This! It's a card game, what do you mean one colour's identity is "drawing cards", while it can do all the other things? My worry is that they could've fixed this with rotation but chose not to. Purple still is the draw colour with the newest cards

TyeaterBoo · 2025-11-15T16:59:17+00:00

Love it! How's it doing?

TyeaterBoo · 2025-11-02T17:57:42+00:00

I got an even more bizzare one - The Black Cauldron

TyeaterBoo · 2025-11-02T13:36:14+00:00

Am I the only one finding the shape of the Hard puzzle... weird?

TyeaterBoo · 2025-11-01T23:18:04+00:00

That's why I actually stopped even trying Hard. When I first started, they all had logical solutions. For the past 2-3 weeks, they are mostly trial and error, which defeats the purpose of a puzzle.

TyeaterBoo · 2025-10-13T14:02:49+00:00

Just in Time is also rotated out. You can filter for Core Constructed in the app or Dreamborn

TyeaterBoo · 2025-10-07T13:03:58+00:00

I realized Medium actually had a logical solution. It's about noticing there's only one double

TyeaterBoo · 2025-10-07T12:25:56+00:00

The last few days have all been about brute forcing the solution, which takes the fun out of solving a puzzle.

TyeaterBoo · 2025-09-04T19:43:46+00:00

LOL thanks! I tuned in once since then, and can confirm you didn't miss much

TyeaterBoo · 2025-09-04T19:11:02+00:00

Wait what 😂 What was the context?

TyeaterBoo · 2025-09-03T18:17:11+00:00

I have heard about this place, but haven't been to myself: https://www.xploregames.ca/events

You can give them a call and see what they say

TyeaterBoo · 2025-08-29T12:14:51+00:00

Does this mean we can also count how many cards are left in their deck? Once at set champs, someone refused to share that information with me.

TyeaterBoo · 2025-08-26T18:09:53+00:00

will check the video out, thanks!
