Cardfight!! Vanguard card game (not anime)

Well, not many of these topics of this game, isn't it? I might as well try to start.

Personally, I play the game in a sortof getting the grips of it, got three decks I made so far, a Neo Nectar "Gene Line" build, a Bermuda Triangle "Raindear" build, and a Spike Brothers "Dudley Emperor rushdown" build.

So yeah, anyone actualy play the game / want to share information?

I've thought of trying it out but I don't want another game addiction right now.

If I did though i'd go with Shadow Paladins.

wait till Revengers come out next year, THAT is the awesome Shadow Paladins you should try.

Any other Tropers playing? It's kind of crazy popular at my county college, got a free Granblue deck off of a friend who's really into it and I'm probably gonna be ordering some $20 in new cards sooner or later.

Are Granblue decks cheap to build? I hear that some of them only run 4 Grade 3s.

No idea. Some of the Good Grade 3s are kind of on the expensive side(around $5), but some highly useful cards are dirt cheap($0.25 for crits that you can put into soul).

Hmmm....not many updates here, I'll chip in.

While I don't play much in the US, I did find that Vanguard was pretty big in Taiwan when I visited(close to Japan I guess). I personally play Narukami Eradicators (just the deck I wanted to play from the start), and still considering Link Joker (Big Daddy CBD is expensive as hell, but locking is interesting).

My advice to people starting out is playing something simple like Kagero or Royal Paladins (borrow it if you got friends have one). I've seen Granblue being played beautifully by skilled players, but Granblue is not new people friendly since one needs to know all the tricks and mechanics or risk milling or losing triggers. Also, learn to guard; it makes or breaks games (I still suck).

Oh, does anyone use the programs like Cardfight Area?

Anyone here able to explain to me the value of certain common cards, such as Grade 2 vanilla 10000s and units that specialize in intercepting? Mostly asking because while trying to make my first deck, the decks I was trying to mimic the ratios and such of had no such cards included.

I'm trying to run a Dark Dictator deck right now(for my first deck too), which doesn't use many Revengers aside from triggers because of the Revenger vanguard requirement. (I mean, I do have 4 Mordred Phantom, but my 5 other Grade 3s aren't Revengers and neither are many of my Grade 2s.)

Also money is of no concern as i'm only using digital cards.

I'll need to look into thst Cardfight Area thing. I haven't been able to find any programs to play the game. Kind of annoying, since I've been wanting to try it for a while.

So I finally got Cardfight Area, and... goddamn is it needlessly confusing. As far as I can tell, I've made my deck correctly, but the Test thing is worse than useless, and I have no idea if my deck's actually being shuffled.

Edit: Made a little progress.

any of you guys going to the New York regionals tomorrow? I'm heading up with a group from college.

Where you play?

College mostly. Don't really play outside my group most of the time

Any of you guys still around? got back into this again with college starting up. Run a deck with Cocytus reverse now, and steadily improving my skills. Mostly. I realize it when I do something really dumb at least.
