ETA stands for 'Estimated Time of Arrival' for those that are not aware. I would hate to think that me and my friends are the only ones experiencing this, but I would also hate the idea that others are also experiencing this as well. Sad situation overall. Hoping this all gets resolved soon. In the meantime look forward to a potential new deck profile for the channel with Solrairon and his new DZ-BT02 support!

[@TheInfinityBreaker]

Man, that is absolutely horrible! I’m sorry about all the delays you guys have been having to deal with. 20 individual boxes does not make up for the lack of the case you ordered. :/ Hope all goes well and you guys can get your cards and staples soon.

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

At the rate things have been going Set 3 might be the hype period for me personally since Ezel and Vermillion get new support which will be cool atleast.

[@TheInfinityBreaker]

@@GuardianCircleCFV very real and understandable. I’ve been playing Ezel a little more recently and it’s such a well rounded deck that just needs the ability to push a little more. Hopefully we can get Platina in the near future.

The case delays have been a nightmare, its bad enough if your shop is late on acquiring product but putting down a large amount of money on a pre-order for a case then not receiving that case in 2 months heavily discentivises you from participating in the local scene. You can't really buy the cards you're missing so you dont fall behind since you've already paid for a cases worth of product so realistically all you can do is wait for the seller/supplier to contact you with updates or get a full refund. Hopefully we see less supply issues going forward because this is not acceptable by any means and continued issues like this will absolutely reduce the playerbase for an otherwise amazing era of Vanguard.

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

Couldn't agree more, I'm pretty much sticking with the decks I've got (like I have a choice), but I can only play them for so long before wanting to play something else. The fact that stock has been this difficult for a businesses to acquire is ridiculous and Bushiroad really need to be setting their standards higher for their product distribution. Problems like this can lead to players becoming disincentivised to even play the game simply because they can't get the new cards to upgrade or build new decks in confidence. It's not a good look to have. Yeah I hope issues like this can be addressed since I don't want to be missing out on more of this era due to a lack of competence outside of my control. It just sucks.

[@Fluors_]

DivineZ Set 1 shipping in July sounds like they are waiting for the 2nd printing than the original you ordered.

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

Yeah we were thinking the same thing, but apparently they didn't even have an ETA for that either so what we were experiencing could of happened with the 2nd printing also. In the end we decided to just get a refund and use that money to get the singles of the main things we wanted basically. Shame, but it is what it is.

[@GemaCoven]

I get your point, sucks when products get delayed... Btw, where did you get that playmat?? :o it's gorgeous!

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

Yeah it just feels bad when you can't update your decks, constantly feeling behind and missing out on all of the cool new stuff. It is what it is at the end of the day. The playmat I bought from a friend who got it at an event, it was custom made. I asked if I could buy it off them when they didn't want it anymore because it had MLB on it 😆

[@GemaCoven]

@@GuardianCircleCFV cheer up, eventually the new support will arrive and you'll have a blast! ^^ U thinking abaou going to BCS this year? Omg, so lucky! That custom playmat is beautiful, I'd love to have one like it (rolf, he sold it just becuase of MLB? He's iconic in vanguard!)

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

Yeah it'll all be sorted out eventually in the near future with any luck. We're considering BCS, not sure at the moment though. Oh no, I meant it as in they know MLB is one of my favourite units and were ok with selling it to me if they decided too at any point :)

[@GemaCoven]

​@@GuardianCircleCFV sometimes boosters get delayed over here too, but cardmarket helped me get singles for the decks I needed, maybe it would serve you well too :) ohhhh, got it got it. Still, whoever did the art for the playmat had a GREAT ideia. Feels like MLB, Thegrea and Gurguit are gathered at a round table, which might be a reference to the card "Form up, O Chosen Knights", which itself is reference to the Knights of King Arthur.

PH COURTSIDE? Jokes aside I relate to the delays and man I hope they could fix this.

Truuuuue 💪

[@LostSyGa]

These ongoing issues are honestly why I've picked up a different hobby to spend my time on. I've jumped. I'm just left on the fringe now. If stuff is late I don't care anymore. I'm no longer in a rush to get anything.

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

We've been playing alot of MTG Commander to pass the time which helped, then when the fatigue for that kicked in I played some old school Yugioh with a few friends. Always handy to have some other hobbies that you can dip into if another one ends up in a messy situation.

[@LostSyGa]

@@GuardianCircleCFV I've picked up those new Hasbro spinning tops. (Beyblade X, we don't speak of Burst) And started diving into the data side of the game, aswell as working with two LGS to start up local events. (One Independent, One Franchise) It's actually got WPN support coming into play from September so trying to network to build up a scene across two neighbouring cities.

[@Wslasher]

We too are also having delay issues with Divinez Set 2 here in the Philippines. Fescolle 2024 about to release in 6 days & we still haven't gotten are cases. And the ironic thing about this is Bushiroad Global is in Singapore & EN cards are allegedly produced in Malaysia, all 3 countries of which is close to each other. BTW: Where can I get me that Thegrea play mat?

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

Now that's interesting, I don't know what's been going on from their end of things but DivineZ has started off terribly with product distribution in some areas more than others. We had no issues before DivineZ, but since it started it's been a delay nightmare. We're hoping it was this UK distributor that was at fault and the EU one will improve things. I bought the playmat from a friend who got it at an event, it was custom made I believe. I said if they ever decided to get rid of it to sell it to me because it had MLB on it 😆

[@clyden1685]

@@GuardianCircleCFV No issues before DivineZ is a bit of a stretch. There were a few sets in Overdress which were delayed for around 2-3 weeks. Granted, one of them was released during holiday season (set 7 iirc). Delays really ruin the hype and impact our meta significantly.
