is unique the best cards and how can you tell the rarity?

From the future, thinking about a twin suns deck with palpatine playing both sides

I just realized I never finished watching this video! 🫠 Thanks for the shoutout! 🫡 Can't wait for our local 2v2 event!

There are so many ways to make a QR code look good, with different shapes and colours. It’s sad they just went with the default ones, instead of making it fit the look of the cards

The jab at Merlin was so hilarious! Nice content!

End of the year is so close. I look forward to your next top 5 tierlist for 2024! ❤

That’s an insane number of boxes without a showcase. I’ve opened 5 without one so caved in and bought a Nute showcase from eBay as that’s my main deck.

I come from Pokemon tcg and I'm interested in picking back up UVS (I played VFS casually back in the day). Might be at an advantage with the early game issue you mentioned, it isn't uncommon to come under 25 cards left in deck turn 1, so I haven't considered that issue of playing a lot of cards early game.

The worst part of level 3 decks is fighting against Allies decks (wind allies etc) and aggro decks (FiZa) because the base elements in this game are just so strong and can kill you before you even realize it. Some other things that feel bad is just taking icebound slam right away after your turn 1, and now you HAVE to level otherwise you risk taking another icebound slam. Sometimes you just don't draw any taunts or intercepts or just any form of defense. So you go negative right away to banish whatever was in memory just to level. If you play a level 3 deck, most times you just die while at low level because "hey your opponent was able to play for pure advantage the whole game and prevent you from any form of stabilization". It feels bad for certain decks like Tristan where you don't get time to generate preparation before leveling because you risk dying otherwise. There are level 3 champions that can stabilize because they draw an extra card every turn or they have the most broken possible advanced element cards possible(Merlin and Silvie). They need to lower the power of the base element cards just a tiny bit because they are as good as quite a few advanced element cards and get the job done faster in a lot of scenarios. It's why we have things like Fire Lorraine, Fire Aggro Zander, Wind/Water Allies, Razorgale, Erupting(before it's ban) are running around. I don't want these decks dead, but like it's understandable why people play these decks when they have fairly consistent quick kill lines and ruin stabilization plans. It's a shame because level 3 champions are the coolest cards because they do the craziest things which is what makes these decks really fun

Tried FAB, didnt care for it.

I wish you would SHOW the examples instead of just describing them. Seeing the action vs hearing about it is far more helpful for those of us that have to see things to understand them easier.

I got no loyalty points for signing up you should send me a free present i used your code I would love anything and also your autograph Sincerely

So I just got into the game last week after doing some research into some TCGs. I was having an itch and really didn't want to get back into magic simply because I do not like how the game has changed over the years and the direction it is heading. When I found this game, a couple of things stood out to me. First the memory system, I absolutely love it. I think it is a very unique system, and the non-reliance on a land system makes starting the game on a kitchen table just that much faster. Secondly, I think that the way the cards are designed, from a format perspective are just amazing. They are simple to understand at a quick glance. They also feel familiar because they remind me so much of magic when just looking at them. Some extra points. I think that they went with a joke as a company name, in my opinion, actually helps people get into the game. When I introduced the game to one of my friends, he was so excited, because he saw the joke name as a company that is doing this simply for the love TCGs games and doesn't feel like they are going out of their way to just make a quick buck. There is going to be more passion into the design of the game. I really hope the company does not start doing collabs. I think the idea of growing the IP and focusing on the immersion is the way to go to keep people playing long term, and if people are playing long term, the game will be introduced to more people in the long run. I think the best way for a growth is to have systems like a draft to get people at the store in large groups playing on a regular basis. People will wonder what they are playing, and it will grow interest. This is exactly how I found out how One Piece had a TCG.

Great episode

do you get the sacrifice effects on the herbs when you brew with them?

Like this set a lot

Love this in depth topic for GA.

🎉🎉🎉

Great job guys 🎉

love the interesting topics that Recollection Step discusses 🙏 bless you guys

I have a rules question regarding the cardtext "when attacked". If I kill a unit with a card like "open fire" which deals damage but isn't attacking an unit via another unit of mine, is it still an attack? Cuz in twilight of the Republic is a card which creates marker everytime it is being attacked but we were unsure whether it still activates when I play an open fire and deal damage.

I think the reason why Kongming has plenty of heals and Jin has Immortality and why weebs said that this set is for new players, is because they know that it's hard for new players to get into the game with how powerful the older players are. The power gap and cost gap to build a competitive deck was high. It sure boiled down a little but the fact that the reprinted DG is still at Rare is what I think pushes new players away from investing further into the game, based solely on this economic state we're all in globally. Also, I noticed that the players in my locals that started during DOA like me, have stayed with the game longer than those that started during ALC. I'm currently observing my locals for this exact reason and hoping the new players during AMB stays with us for the long run.

I'm having issues with take the initiative.. sounds simple but still not 100% grasping it. Explain please?

The art looks great but the actual game markings look ridiculous. Way too much going on.

Level 3 is simultaneously what brings players to the game and what makes them quit. They see level 3's, they get into the game, they fail hard because of the reasons you explained, they get told to buy Dungeon Guides, they see the price, they see it's out of stock anyway, they quit. Heavenly Guide being an SR doesn't help either. The game needs a Common strictly worse alternative to Dungeon Guide (like a 1/2 for 4 with exactly the same effect) because right now a single card is being a massive bottleneck in the onboarding pipeline. Good Floating Memory cards just isn't enough when "that guy" builds aggro and gatekeeps everyone from the cool part of the game when you're trying to set up a locals.

And then you get stupidly bad luck and draw only level 3 element cards.

favorite lvl 3 is rai!!

I'm the fire aggro tristan in the local meta. KEK

When I teach new players, I describe it as "when you get to level 3, fun is allowed"

Duluth is where I go for Vanguard events. It'd be awesome if you can get a GA scene going there

now that altered is out, what is your thought on altered fiting this criteria? too competitive? also why don't you consider pokemon a casual enough game?

Ive tried not playing Dumgeon Guide and wow it makes a lvl 3 deck so hard. The rush strategies in the game are too fast without Dungeon Guide. I wonder if GATCG should experiment with mixed element cards maybe if Dungeon Guide is an issue. Like say a mage spell that deals 2 damage as fire but if you have Arcane it deals 2+LV with Efficiency. But really Dungeon Guide should be an uncommon.

Is a unit with multiple aspect icons considered a unit of all of those aspects regardless of the color of the card? For example a red card that has the red and black icon.

Do you control your leader when its on its horizontal side for the keyword coordinate and other purposes?

Love your content, keep it up

Are the original cards still compatible with this new set? Same mechanics?

Wow, I assumed the big 3 just to have there own tier. Odd list. I would like to try Grand Archive and Flesh and Blood. Hope they make their games digital, since I don't go out much.

You're absolutely incredible! I can't get enough of these videos! I've just dove into Star Wars Unlimited, and as a massive Star Wars fan, it's everything I've been looking for! I've always wanted to explore TCG games, but nothing has captivated me like this one. Your videos make it so easy to grasp and super enjoyable-I'm having a blast! Keep up the amazing work! Thank you a million times over!

Is using a shield when the character that has one would take damage mandatory?

Hey Dan and Jordan, thanks for the effort you guys put into the podcast! Here is my #MailBag question - what do you guys think of the recent Robin Hood errata? Do you think their decision to change the card text (rather than remove the bureaucrat tag) was the best option? Thanks so much!!

thank you for previewing this for us!

Awesome video would love to see more Universus content its a super fun game with alot of strategic decisions but is also vary excusable with clash decks being really good just buy 2 and your good to go at standard events and the starter decks lower powered and easy to learn on for first time players

This was a very enjoyable episode! 2v2 sounds like it'd be really fun to try! Hoping to get enough people at our locals to try a 2v2 though 😅

We've just tested a way to make atsadi work ! 2v2 ! With a muna ramp help ! Magical !! Aja, mana reaping on a small card, daughters if yggdrasil, kitsune for drawing cards. And we even anchored kaibara with Parvati!

Great video! Please make another that goes into more detail about deck building rules and build options for 2v2 and Free for All.

#mailbag My personal thought about the best side event! It would be locations with effects. These could be implemented in a few ways, but simply put a random effects deck that is shuffled and revealed when an expedition is revealed. The effects could be when revealed this side of the expedition is put to sleep and characters played here next turn will come in asleep. Another example would be this expedition will only count the highest stat of a character and all others become zero for scoring. If tied, the player picks which stat is counted. You could also have expeditions that are unbalanced like 2 zones of only water, or have 1 zone changed to be all 3 just like the starting zones. If this side events is real what effects would you like to see? Complex way to implement it would be like AEG's slot in upgrades for mystic vale or custom heroes
