Yeah. That play to build a fucking watermelon catapult during the match was sheer brilliance. You could tell he was up to something, but weren't sure what it was until he finished. I always love it when people combine cards in unexpected ways.

I couldn't think of anything to put here but not having one makes me look like a noob

While we all may hate Antag, we know some matches are legit. And I have to admit that using poison and healing potion together in one of the legit matches was clever of him.

Yeah, the dude did have talent. Too bad he had to screw it all up.

So, I've discovered a new combo, I think. It's a little complicated, so bear with me here:

So, Espresso lets you take 2 bonus actions next turn, right? It's decent, but outclassed by things like Treadmill in that manner, so largely forgotten. however, since Espresso is a consumable, by playing Environmental Reforms, Espresso becomes a reusable. still not busted, because Environmental Reforms wears off after a few turns, and you can only use Espresso once a turn. however, you can then stack it with Radioactive Turntable to use Espresso more than once per turn, allowing you to stack bonus actions. Throw in some Search items to get you the specific things you need like discard protection, and you can effectively stack up to 100 actions per turn. Looking online, I couldn't find any record of it, so I can hope there wasn't a patch taking it out. God, if this works...

Radioactive Turntable was patched so you can only use one RT per turn. Still a BUNCH of actions, but not that broken.

Yeah, that combo really only works in the 3rd edition.

Hey, found this commentary on that legendary game. Any thoughts?

I can't recall the last time I've seen the xylophone used in the game. I remember it being replaced by the drum set years ago when players found not only had the same function, but also had more sonic damage.

Get taxed. Idiot.

You can still find it used among newbies who haven't really built up their collections yet. Gave my spare xylophone to my little brother once he started playing the game, and he uses it all the time. Heck, I use my current one as a backup for the drums.

There's one or two combos where the Xylophone works better than Drums, but none of them are really relevant to the current meta.

Of course, it's a very different story if you're talking about the Marimba or Metallophone...

Gotta say, I wish more tourneys used the rotating battle style. It allows for so many more antics, what with building off your teammates items.

I heard KyleX59 is planning a team invitational some time in the future. No info on a date though.

Happy new year, everyone! After a few months of no activity from the team, we finally got a new set! 2023 Party Accessories seems useful, you can decrease both your and your opponent’s style significantly, so it’s a pretty good counter to setup sweep teams with the Spy Gadgets (nice nod with their damage relying on style, too, haha).

Hmm, a loadout based around the style stat? That could be interesting. I should try that out sometime.

Style-focused strategies haven't been used much since they nerfed the "Dandystorm" combo.

Hello everyone, welcome to your monthly update to this quiet discussion thread.

The VTuber set has had a release date announced! March 1st. They also teased more of the items. Capture Card looks like it’ll be a total counter to “unpredictability” strategies like the old toy crocodile/flagpole. Not that that was seeing any play anymore in the first place. Seeing your opponent’s ENTIRE deck is pretty OP, though, it’s screaming “prerelease nerf”.

...there's a VTuber collab? If it's Hololive I'm not gonna participate in an event for the first time in my life.

This was announced last year, have you been living under a rock? And no, it's not a collab, just a general theme.

I am the rock

I wonder if they made a whole-ass VTuber model to act as their mascot in that part of streaming, like Pokémon did with Iono.

I read the blog regarding Vtuber items. They get a buff when currency items are in play, but only in team matches with 4 or more people per team. Looks like they thought ahead and got rid of any exploitable strats that can happen in single matches.

Get taxed. Idiot.

Great, more team-match-player pandering. Single-match players have been getting left high and dry lately in terms of item releases. It seems the game's original intended format has been all but forgotten.

I like cute things. You gotta deal with it.

I mean, I don’t like it either, but it makes sense. The legendary match that put the game on the map was a 3v3.
