I mean yeah, it keeps BnB and having a 6pp storm following up Ipiria will be good in both formats. Shit's going to be nice.

>Implying having the best wards, the beast heals, the best removal, the 2nd best storm, and the best threats in the game isn't already the cancercraft If it wasn't for rune, shadow and dragon being cancer for a couple of expacs, forest would be top of the shit list.

This link should really be temporarily added to the OP's news section with how relevant it is, just in case anyone happened to miss it. shadowverse.com/news/?announce_id=580
Wait. So first I'll spend all my gold on Dawnbreak Nighedge. And then when I am all out of gold they'll release super fancy new cards, into the same pack I just bought. For cards I'll never ever get, and when I try I just get the old stuff all over again?
Why?

What was everyone's thoughts on this? Looking at it, I think it's pretty good. 2-3 months is around the time meta starts getting really stale because everyone has crafted the LMAO EZ win decks.
>implying forest doesn't have best tier 1 deck atm
Landon Howard
Yeah if it wasn't for the other 7 classes Haven would be cancer too.
Christopher Nguyen
If you want to pull whatever legendary cards get added in May for their emblems instead of having to craft them (and yes, according to the JP announcement it will be one more lego per class) then don't buy DN packs until then. Craft what you need the most with your current reserve vials, and keep saving gold.
It's a pretty negative reaction overall, from what I've seen anyway. At least in my opinion, month 3 was the most fun because by then the most outlandishly broken decks were usually dealt with, but now that's not gonna be the case since the new cards will almost inevitably bring issues of their own. I guess month 2 will probably be the most balanced now, so I'll probably be getting GM then as opposed to month 3 like I usually do.
Why wouldn't you, it's gold and pack(s) and isn't good for anything else.
Jace Parker
It's an interesting idea since it's one way to get people to play the game for sure. People like balance but the game being too balanced can make it boring and stale. But it's also an obvious jew tactic to get you to buy more packs.
Parker Morgan
There's gonna be a GP every month so I assume people who are paranoid might want to hold on to them for when they actually need another try.
Rate my dick please. Do you think that Star Phoenix would do it any good. I was thinking about dropping 1 Aiela since it does nothing later on and put a third Staircase. Card off screen is a single Bahamut.
Vial sink/whalebait. Realistically no one is going to buy more packs just for the small chance of pulling the new cards, so people will have to burn lots of vials for any new legends they need. It's just going to lead to a lot of people not pulling on release and running old meta decks for 2 months; or not playing at all for 2 months.
Pretty fucked up desu. Sure it keeps things fresh but it also makes you feel like shit for spending gold buying "incomplete" packs at the start of an expansion. Last moth is when I usually start saving so I'm not even going to buy the new packs most likely. Another problem is if they add moonbun then and not from the start of the expansion. They can also avoid nerfs to problematic cards using the "huuur new cards, so we want to see how the meta changes" blizzard tier argument.

How many leaks left?

>Add 2 FFG to my midshadow >All 4 Daria 1 dirt I've been queuing every day for the good gold, and over 50% of my games were NForest for every stage. The second I tech against Forest and Dragon, they disappear entirely. This game is way too fucking predictable for supposed "RNG matchmaking".
Dylan Howard
You're not mixing enough archetypes. Add some Windmill cards.
Anthony Lee
>he fell for the "counters" meme. Counters never work in this game.
Sebastian Moore
18 cards.
Kevin Gray
I'd actually uninstall immediately Their whole narrative for the stagger is to "refresh the meta", an alternate version of an old rotated card would completely conflict with that
Robert Kelly
My boy Dayan didn't qualify either so everything is fine with the world. Second round was literal luckshit time.
I literally won't play the game after the expansion if that's the case. I'm saving my rupees for Moonbun, and I'm not gonna waste them like KMR wants.
Aaron Hughes
But that just adds more win conditions it's been working pretty good so far you barely ever run out of steam and the constant preassure on board also works to punish most aggro decks.
Brody Taylor
Counters on ladder are mostly useless since the point of ladder is using decks that have the widest range of good matchups so you always have a chance at winning. Counters are for tournaments where you know what you're targetting and have other decks for other matchups.
Christian Moore
He didn't qualify yet? That's weird.
Benjamin Gomez
We recognize your concern, and as such the leader card for Moon Al'Mir-aj will be counted as a rotation legal reprint in order to bring new variety to the format. Thank you, and enjoy Shadowverse.
Austin Perez
He streamed and couldn't get 4 wins for shit. You brick twice in this shit and it's gg. Gran Prix is anything but a display of skill.
Isaac Clark
>old meta decks for 2 months Good fucking luck with that when so much shit rotates. I'm just gonna hang with trusty old aggrosword in unlimited for the first two months. May, maybe craft Celia at the absolute most. Huh, maybe they actually did it to prop up unlimited?
They handled this the worst possible way. If they released the extra cards as some fixed complete set you could buy (with some PvE content would have been cool), I'd have less issue with it. 3 legends per set per class is pushing it to breaking point, but they aren't wrong that nobody really wants to play by month 3 of any meta. And constantly nerfing cards to give bandwagoners free refunds for the next cancer isn't the way to fix it.
Inserting the cards into the existing packs is fucking stupid however, and just makes people not want to buy anything at launch or even drop the game entirely until the full set is out.
Ian Davis
Why did I have a new ticket and a legendary in my crate when I logged in today?
Ian Foster
But he still has time or did he give up already?
Gavin Gonzalez
I got 4 wins on the second round and 3 on the first but I'm in group B how does that work exactly. Do you have to get 4 or more in both?
Caleb Carter
>the inevitability of a bunch of anons that'll get highrolled in the first game this grand prix is nothing but despair
Just buy more crystals for premium matchmaking and premium draws. Enjoy Shadowverse. Thank you.
Ian Gomez
If they want to make the game more exciting in months 2 and 3, they should BUFF some cards instead. That way they don't need to refund vials, and they don't need to print more shit. Make some shit like Mail or Straddler a bit more useful to shake things up.
Nips are spineless betas who will put up with anything
Grayson Carter
I think GP is rigged. I've lost from the most insane literal 1 damage off of surviving and winning kind of stuff several times in the last few days while doing GP.
Jonathan Miller
Is this the expansion with most censored cards we've had yet?
Burn Rune and current forest builds with some tweaks will still be strong. The question mark is Dragon and Mid-Shadow, who right now are losing more than they gain. Shadow still has a bunch of cards left though.
Evan Lee
Yes. There are more censored female cards than uncensored ones.
Liam Rodriguez
Took me 2 tries to get to group A then 7 tries to get into the finals and I was playing the exact same decks. I only won my forth game because the game decided to match me with a bricking haven instead of the usual Dorothy/Forest/Dragon. GP is only slightly less rng than T2. I'd like to see statistics of what percentage of players actually qualified for final stage A.
Nathaniel Evans
Yeah, but it's all worth because we got to watch a couple of dudes mirror match each other with the same 3 decks over and over again on stream for a few hours.
>GP >go first and win >T2 >go second and win Seems 50/50
Zachary Wright
>Do Gran Prix >Don't get a Daria opponent, I win Took a little bit but there you go. The team at Cygames are fucking retarded. There is nothing fun about playing daria, she either high rolls you and you can't do anything, or they brick.
Camden Long
I think pretty much every single card with a cute girl on it is censored in some way. It's pretty ridiculous.
I qualified for group A at the last at the last hour and only because the game matched me against to worst D rank daria and dragon players ever. The rune dude didn't even know the proper time to put the board down. Whoever says GP isn't just luck on hand and shitty opponents is just a liar.
Daniel Ward
You want more draw than that.
Elijah Harris
Dorothy wants to go 2nd though so that fucks up statistics.
Logan Sullivan
>play daria >brick half the time >play dragon >dont get ramp half the time
Someone give me a deck that's actually consistent
Sebastian Myers
Opposite for me Literally won against every single daria deck and lost to literally every single neutral deck. Lost the 50/50 so no sleeves for me.
Jaxon Richardson
Control or Neutral Elf.
Gavin White
Anyone? I saw no reason for why I got it.
John Gray
Every single deck your opponents play, but only when they play it.
There was an unscheduled maintenance yesterday that fucked everyone's runs so they gave out a ticket to compensate and there was a survey to pick a legendary to give out and Queen of the Dread Sea won.
Rejoice.
Kayden Adams
I agree that would make a lot of sense for undertuned cards that were supposed to have an impact, and obviously didn't. But they won't.
Chase Parker
neutral elf is anything but consistent
Joshua Carter
>Nelf >consistent I sure do enjoy drawing all my elf cards when I run 3/4 neutrals.
Brandon Martin
So that's a yes on the third Staircase, being a minion based deck with a bunch of token generation that should be enough, I've never felt a lack of draws when playing it.
Blake Flores
Oh. Neat.
Dylan Diaz
Leaks?
Nathaniel Thompson
In 2 months
Parker Morris
It just highlights how little control you have over outcomes in this game, that many people didn't really notice when grinding dailies. My last GP run I got crushed by perfect curve nelf, won 3, and then lost to a fucking Nep deck who had the perfect answer to my board every single turn. You can't make this shit up, all you can do is shrug and move on.
