[@Numbergoose-yl3jj]

lmfao the berserk horse reference was really unhinged i will never see that card the same again

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@Numbergoose-yl3jj hahaha man I couldn't resist! The first time I saw that card I was like what am I looking at?!

[@lordtouchme3362]

Thanks for actually going through the deck in depth. Been trying to make this deck work. I’m sure I will play better thanks to this video

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@lordtouchme3362 hey thank you for the kind words! I really hope it helps! This deck is all about how you handle the mid game. If you can sort that out you're good!

[@lordtouchme3362]

@ well I will try . Thanks for the video. You got one more sub. For your road to 1k

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@lordtouchme3362 appreciate the support I really do!

[@ShiniXgami_]

Great Video as always and finally for Blackbeard 😁 Im fighting with the Decklist and I really like the consistency in the draw. I'm still not sure about Jack in the list. I see the advantage in the late game and in a mirror its two extra cards your opponent has to remove with Liberation. so your own Burges are a bit more safe. and in the late game you can remove a 3 cost yes but you need Laboon/Auger and the position to play it safe. Maybe combined with mansherry that can bring a labor back from trash. Downside is that she works against burges effect. Also I think Tempest Kick could be an alternative, it replaces itself and fills the trash and can be a -3 cost.

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

Hey thank you my guy! Really appreciate the kind words!! Yeah honestly I put this decklist together because I felt it was the most generic and still showcases what the deck is capable of. I'm 100% not sold on Jack. I agree that Mansherry works against the idea of the deck. I do like temptest kick and honestly I'm toying with the idea of the 9c Kaido that trashes a 7 cost. I think on the odd curve that could have insane value!

[@LimiterRemoval]

At 15:20 why would Doffy attack your leader and not your Doc or Laboon??? With that he could avoid getting his weevil K.O.d again

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

I completely agree but I've been running into this tactic a lot with doffy players right now. I think it's because it's still early in the release so they haven't really settled on different strategies yet and the main one they use is to get you to 0 life as quickly as possible to use Perfume Femur. They become sort of blinded by this and just swing at life hoping to get you in range at all costs.

[@LimiterRemoval]

@@thegoldstandardtcg Oh ok, makes sense. Thank you :) Appreciate it

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@LimiterRemoval no thanks the for question! Honestly I thought the same thing the first time they did it to me!

[@aaronfroman6760]

Why not k0 the sangoru instead of the rested zorojuuro and swing 6 at zoro to rip a card from hand since you were planning on playing 10c

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

I'm not sure where you're talking about. What's the timestamp? I assume it's because Van Augur reduces by 3 so I couldn't.

[@MrTizy75]

Never saw a guide video this complete ! Thanks a lot bro ! Liked and subscribed ! Please some more games of BB vs meta decks !

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

Hey thank you kindly my guy! I'll definitely try to get more gameplays. In the meantime I'm working on a Shanks video that might help you beat shanks because it's a tough match up for BB!

[@prettybad6858]

Can we get a peanut butter Luffy video? I've been enjoying that leader a lot

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@prettybad6858 absolutely! I'm making a Buggy video for this week because I wanted something light and fun and then next week I'm doing PB Luffy! So stay tuned!

[@ConnorJG76]

Can you advise all the decks you want to go first against. Like most black i feel going second is always the plan, but B Doffy and P Luffy in particular, going first is big

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

Yeah so a simplified way to think about this is I usually go first against any ramp decks and aggro decks and then second against control decks. This isn't always the case but it's a pretty good rule of thumb. So B doffy, pluffy, bp luffy, pudding and basically any red decks that I suspect will be rush heavy I go first against. Then most black, green, and yellow decks I take second. Again this is super general as there are like 80 leaders in the game but this is a good place to start!

[@ConnorJG76]

@thegoldstandardtcg what a G for responding. Going to my first 09 locals with BB after coming off 2 rotations of Lucci so want to be in a good spot. I'm using the same deck build as you anyway which also helps

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@ConnorJG76 hahaha of course my guy! Hope it helps! Bro this deck is all about the mid game if you can keep up removal and get burgess down before your 10 beards you're good!

[@ConnorJG76]

@thegoldstandardtcg yeah I even sometimes wait till the turn after just to have Jesus and even something else down just to help the long game if their board is a little flooded

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

Totally agree! I think you'll have a lot of success with this deck if you're already thinking about that. Patience is king with this one and I think a lot of people will give up on this leader because they'll gett frustrated in the mid game.

[@monoTNT]

Any ideas on how to not spend around 100$ for laboon?! 😅

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@monoTNT hahaha bro no kidding! Another guy in here was using Kuzan as a replacement and if it sticks on the board that can work. Orlumbus is another than work but you have to ditch him at the end of the turn. Unfortunately Laboon is kinda expensive for a reason right now! It'll come down though. A lot of people will come off Blackbeard in the next few weeks.

[@monoTNT]

@@thegoldstandardtcgproblem with kuzan is that no counter in hand and slow on board 🥲i like the new robin leader so ima throw less money to getting that to work cuz of the cards i have

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@monoTNT I hear you! Yeah Kuzan just ain't the same! Nico is really fun! I played against 2 of them in our local tournament last night and they really suprised me!

[@Quash4]

Full a lead? It’s actually a play on Full of Lead. Like full of bullets. Lead = led.

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@Quash4 thanks for the info!

[@Freddy-D]

Moria the 9 cost could be a good Card in this Deck, 2 of them maybe 😊

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@@Freddy-D do you mean the 8c Moria?

[@Freddy-D]

@thegoldstandardtcg aye, nevermind saw that he got an on play ability..

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@Freddy-D hahaha ok I was like is there some kind of promo Moria or something I don't know about?!

[@Kromm3D]

On plays don't work under your leader ability

[@Freddy-D]

@@Kromm3D exactly 🥲

[@GruntpocalypseGaming]

Itd be cool if we could rebuild our decks to be when attacking but blackbeard is black and has just as much removal as any other black dexk so your when attacking can never proc :) I think Laboon should be banned

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

Totally agree but I wasn't really saying that decks would be transitioning to this exclusively. I was more saying people are going to get creative and come up with interesting work arounds. For instance things like using the shut up and come event to play out a book chopper on their turn and then having access to his ability on your turn. Mostly I'm just excited to see what interesting things people cook up now that on play is not what it used to be or if there will even be enough Blackbeard players to actually have that dramatic an effect on the meta!

[@trackteacher8066]

You were today old when you found out the stage was a play on words. Full of lead (led) like full of bullets.

[@thebanman2293]

I was as soon as I saw the English translation years old when I figured that out

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

Hahaha hat's actually exactly what I text my buddy the other day! He was like I don't know how to pronounce this and I said pretty sure it's Full o' lead like you got shot! Thanks for the confirmation!

[@trackteacher8066]

@@thegoldstandardtcg No problem! Thank you for the video, very informational!

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@trackteacher8066 thanks for the support my guy! And for the clarification. I was half joking when I text him that!

[@ZaRpGamings]

I only had one laboon so im using 3 kuzans now XD

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

Honestly that's a solid substitution my guy! With the card draw it really helps the deck!

[@ZaRpGamings]

@ well the on play doesn’t work and doesn’t have counter but laboons are too expensive now. it’s the only other card i could think of to use for it

[@thegoldstandardtcg]

@ZaRpGamings oh duh that's right! Yeah not having counter is tough. Also not being able to reduce the turn you play it makes it hard because you have to hope it sticks around. I still think it's a decent substitution until the Laboons come down in price!

[@thanoscrackatfortnite6141]

You can also use the pirate party axe hand Morgan even tho you get -3 cost instead of 4 you keep the counter. And since you don’t draw a card via kuzan’s effect it’s probably the best replacement for that overpriced whale.

[@nemesiz9322]

I am using one legged soldier. 2k counter if u need, and -3 as activate main. Only downside is u lose that body and target for your opponent. The only other card i think of using is dressrosa orlumbus. He has also activate main -4. But u have to trash 2 top deck cards( which is not bad for Burgess) and u have to trash a dressrosa type on field. So u could use mansherry here. She brings back a 3-5cost from trash (burgess, Van Augur etc) and after that u can trash her for orlumbus. And since u doesnt have to rest him for that effect its also not bad.
