i smell bias but thats fine this is not an objective list just all in good subjective fun. who cares if some ppl don't like your tcg if u like it thats all that matters

No Final Fantasy?!

Digimon <3

The reason why limited excels at being a great experience is it's essentially the adverse of commander but with the same goal. It's a competitive format in the sense that deck building and game knowledge is the skills required to do well but it accomplishes these things utilizing all the dogshit cards they print that are truly only powerful in these limited environments and you can make and play really cool really interesting strategies that would never see the light of day in their standard environments just like edh of old sought to accomplish by making bulk rares playable. But to place mtg at the front of outstanding is such a joke. The game has lost it's entire identity completely cannibalising itself through UB and EDH. There's really nothing redeeming about the game and quite frankly it's mechanics are outdated and everything truly is just kicker.

Disagree on Lorcana

And no ulcanix xD

Yeah the Spark starter is the only one worth getting. The Luke and Vader decks have great cards for any deck you'll build, and the starter exclusives are the best here. Shadows and Twilight starters arent worth it as a whole, pick up the cards you want on the aftermarket

Flesh and blood its not even close

Netrunner is not a TCG but a living card game. The Fan Project lives on very well and active

Digimon as a whole has always been my preference to Pokemon, even when the TCG was awful. The new card game (that we only recently found out about) finally does the concept justice.

Today i won 3x3 Yugioh tournament i love the competition with my Opponent and the Rest tcgs are chill nothing for me

I hope this game takes off

My biggest complaint about yu gi oh is that you can literally sit there and watch someone play their turn for an hour. What they should do is make a core set like with OG cards and then create a rotation like in mtg or Pokemon.. at least in my opinion

Didn't even have Divorced Dads smh

Fftcg?

Richard Garfield lost all good will/credibility since Artifact (Dota 2 card game). He is one of the major factors why this game failed..

My first TCG game was in the 90s with Pokemon, and then I recently got into Magic The Gathering and Disney Lorcana this year.

I will say this, from my experience, fun decks are generally not competitive, where as competitive decks are not generally fun. Granted I generally have only played a few of these games, so if there is a tcg that changes that rule, I would like to give it a try.

Wow I really feel you on magic. I kind of fell out of love with it but I’m looking forward to getting into flesh & blood

One Piece is better than all except Magic

Cardfight Vanguard is the one that started the trigger system

I hate commander. I've been playing since the 90's and commander is far and away the least interesting format for me. Obv to each their own, but with that said MTG was inherently a competitive outlet for me, not a social one. When I want to socialize, I find alcohol (just as an example) to be something that helps me accomplish the task of "socializing". But there is a reason that MTG isn't colloquially called "social lube". Imo MTG is fundamentally DESIGNED to be competitive. If you want social, I have ALWAYS found D&D to be much more helpful. Rather than working AGAINST those you're playing with, you work TOGETHER. Literally a fundamentally more social experience. Again, to each their own, but I do roll my eyes when folks talk up how beneficial a game of commander is to socializing. It feels like window dressing to a scene where people already are socializing at best, without driving the social experience whatsoever. If others have different experiences, that's chill: have fun w/ it but holy cow is it boring to me. If i wanted to casually do something with people to socialize there are about 99,999,999 other things that come to mind first: watch a movie, get food, do drugs, drink, have sex, explore nature, etc. Clearly commander helps ppl get their rox off w/ commander and, again, that's cool, let 'em but dear lord lets stop pretending that it's fundamentally 'better' than standard. Basically commander is fundamentally casual and standard is fundamentally competitive. If magic is fundamentally designed to be competitive, then the gameplay itself will only synergize when the format best matches card design. Just my take

I played magic since I was 16 so almost 8 ish years starters playing one piece just this year and could never go back to magic

I’ve been really enjoying Kryptik recently, at least at the casual kitchen table level (haven’t delved into the competitive scene yet). It’s like a fresher more streamlined version of magic, and it’s very fun and designed by some cool people, with a lot of input from the community.

No Union arena love❤?

Flesh and Blood 🩸?

As a mostly limited player of Magic, I'd be interested in seeing how you'd rank the limited formats of the TCGs that support it. Also, some of my most played TCGs were all during the '90's boom and mostly followed the IPs I liked: Star Trek (Decipher), Star Wars (Decipher), Overpower, Middle-earth, and Battletech. Have you ever played any of those?

Wish I could play fab but there’s like no scene whatsoever where I live. I haven’t seen a single game shop even carry it

I would also agree that Digimon is very underrated. The resource system is fantastic. My issue is just that Digimon is basically just discount Pokemon. I know some people like it, but it's just not my thing, and that's considering the fact that Pokemon designs haven't even been that good after Gen 2, maybe Gen 3. =/

Bro how is Legends of Runeterra not on this list?

digimon needs a virtual version of the cardgame

Ty for show cards from Play booster only!

Vanguard and magic the gathering top here!!!

Such a heartwarming clip. I love the dry English humour mixed with the Indian kindness. I have a public regular groupe and enjoy to play with a lot different people because on the board it's not about job, finance or even race. It's all about the game and the social experience

Play indie card games!

Android Netrunner is my favourite game of all time. Technically not a TCG (it’s an LCG), but the original was (before it went to FFG then latterly Null Signal Games). Still, it’s great to see it top the list along with FAB which is also an amazing game. A good list for sure.

Lorcana is so much more than what yall made it out to be yall didn’t give it a fare shake

Of course Digimon is the best Bandai TCG, it's not even debatable. The memory system is far better than the DON system, you can basically choke your opponent at 1 memory if you play decent and they can barely do anything on their turn. Plus, it's more complex than One Piece, having inheritable effects to take into account.

put time stamps in your videos man. There should be markers for people to skip ahead.

Used to think yugioh was peak gameplay back in the battle city and gx periods. The game was extremely balanced and had more viable decks than you can imagine with fair rules. Now it’s just an infinite turn shit fest. Like you sit down and your opponent bas played 90% of his deck and combos before you even get a turn. Basically it’s in the same scenario magic has found itself in with everyone only playing one deck (mono red aggro) where you win your second turn.

Y'all are always such a joy to watch/listen to. :)

Yo! The tile at the top of your Galaxy Trucker ship is an illegal placement. I hope it was removed before the journey! Best abstracts are Tzaar and Quantum in my book. If you like sci-fi and haven't played Quantum you need to track down a copy! I agree Caverna is amazingly thematic and my favourite Uwe, but a strong disagree that Lords of Waterdeep isn't thematic! I think the intrigue cards have some womderful thematic twists, and if you have players going to the harbour you genuinely feel dread in wondering what they're scheming in the darkest corners of Skullport.

For people only knowing Monopoly, Gigamic Marrakesh is really the best in all events I've lead: simple rules, closed economy with money exchange, some screw you moment and a simple area control - That gives all the parameters people are comfortable with through Monopoly in a very good (and tactile) game

Great video guys.

I’m literally not upset with a single commander from this seat ngl 😂

Flesh and blood feels like ass. I’m sorry. I don’t get the hype. Glad people enjoy it though. You left out prolly one of the best games to release in years in grand archive.

Was gonna subscribe until I saw the OP TCG ranking and MTG ranking.. lol told me all I need to know

How do you look at vanguard, a TCG that came out in 2011,that has garnered many lovers, and is only held back by the fact of its availability?

Runeterra

Great video again guys! 👍 Best pick: Star Realms! Should have been number 1! Worst pick: Unmatched. Have always found it boring and one dimensional.
