2:12 fwiw, OG Love Live also got the movie EB and the one new card from the variety set in EN, which came after SIF vol 2 (all 3 were combined into DX vol 2) 5:37 "I guess we'll find out when the cardlist comes out" Yeah, you'd expect so, wouldn't you >.> 10:12 For some reason I just found this hilarious :D "SIF… 6 or something?" "SIF 2." They don't go through mobile games *that* fast >.> (Though perhaps we're due for SIF 3? Which would be the 4th one if you count All Stars) 24:30 I was thinking the same thing, and looking it up it seems like the first hit to LSS (on March 1, 2018) didn't restrict You herself, so you could in fact play 4 You and 4 standby in the same deck for a bit under a year (Apr 27, 2018 to Feb 1, 2019). You've never been able to play 4 You and 8 standby in the same deck, though (the 6th anni set came out on Aug 9, 2019). 27:55 Yeah, I remember thinking that like search brainstorms maintain compression better when you hit, plus I guess there was just generally less deckspeed, so often less stuff in wr. Though if I was going to go back and build a deck from that time now, I might still prefer a salvage brainstorm, I'm not sure. I doubt most decks had a choice anyway 31:12 The confusion around the boxtoppers is great :D I do wish Bushiroad had actually told us what the boxtoppers were, but these reactions are a nice silver lining to the fact that they didn't 33:06 Wait, wasn't All Stars the game that Nijigasaki started in? Like the first LNJ set was SIF All Stars Looking it up, it looks like that Setsuna was a birthday promo card from SIF, so it doesn't have different art for the idolized version 33:55 I do like that lv0 Lanzhu in JP Nijigasaki; a large part of that is that there isn't a ton of stockgen (and also red fix can be rough). It's especially nice when you go first and can guarantee it (or maybe see that it'll whiff and attack with something else instead), but just generally a decent card. Doesn't swing particularly big though, and of course it's still a coinflip, so sometimes it just does nothing except show your opp the top card of your deck. Probably worse in Bang Dream since that set can convert hand to stock pretty easily, so has less need to try to get extra stock like this. 35:27 The issue with using the tap counter with Kanata I suppose is that you're not getting stock from attacks, so that 4 stock cost becomes pretty hefty. There was the Haruka/Kanata standby deck that was around for a while, which had giant 2/1s and then sat on a bunch of defensive counters I think; the Karin lv3 combo also works pretty well with the tap counter I suppose, already running a bunch of events and not using stock during attack phase (and since it's a clock kick, you're already looking to win board on offense). Of course in EN I suppose the only option is Rina, or Shioriko with SIF2. Rina also effectively doesn't use stock during attack phase (and can be untargetable), but has a pretty hefty hand cost. Shioriko does use stock during attack phase, but tends to want to front-load that anyway, and also already wants direct lanes. So I could see it being usable with either of those, though probably not amazing. 39:09 Huh, were there? The only stockswap+fumio sets I can think of are LL, KS, BD, and SDS. I guess FS and now RWBY have stockswap + fumio for 0 [oh, Persona & IM & KGL as well, and technically MK], and MTI has a single card that's stockswap+fumio. Oh right, forgot about Key as well. And ARI, though that has a trait restriction on the fumio; same for DJ. And RW has stockswap + fumio for 0 in a single card. But a lot of those are more recent sets (looking through the ones with fumio for at least 1, it's: LL 2015, BD 2017, KS 2018, MTI & SDS 2021, Key 2022, ARI & DJ 2023. So more post-covid than pre). Then again, perhaps you don't need a lot of stockswap+fumios to be obnoxious :P …I guess I should have listened to a bit more before going and looking all that up, since Randall kinda says the same thing. Still, it was interesting to look into. 40:09 It's not though, because she's smiling. Why is she smiling (I've only watched the anime, not read the game stories; I'm sure there's a reason) 41:44 No you're right; the one that got reprinted was the one from the second set. 42:58 Pay 2 check 3 is honestly pretty nice for digging for a cx. Basically the same cost as playing a lv3 with cip check 3 for a card; can also be nice as a stock outlet earlier in the game. I will admit that I feel like stock is often the bottleneck with Rina combo, though. 44:57 Looked it up out of curiosity, and yeah, looks like the only previous +6k in front of a lv3 was once again Girlfriend Beta, as it happens. Or wait, there were a couple promos before it as well, AB and GC; AB was actually the first one, I believe, released in June 2015. So this one was half a year later in Jan 2016, but "one of the first" still seems reasonable to me. 57:46 Apparently KNK and GRI and AZL and UMA got that profile, for anyone wondering 1:07:29 I did have an EN LNJ decklist built before I found out about the boxtoppers, using 4 Shiyoko 2-souls and 4 Idol Theme Cup 2-souls :P So meme for sure, but I wouldn't call it unplayable, exactly. And with the boxtoppers I think it's actually kinda real; honestly might even be better than LL or LSS just on the back of that finisher, though maybe that's a stretch. (I have a decklist for that as well, incidentally.) Well, I wasn't actually expecting to watch this entire hour-long video, and this comment ended up a tad long, but here we are I guess. Definitely a nice video :)

Bushiroad out here really giving us all of the cool reprints and support cards and just never giving us the the core for all of the love live decks (please just give us 6th ani set bushi-sama im begging you)

[@rolvirata9003]

Speaking of surprises in Weiss, did we know that the sign card in Guilty Gear does NOT replace one of the SP in the case before it was released? Basically it existed out of the "formula" and a "dead box" could still have that sign card...

[@TressasCollectibles]

Yep! Definitely was a pleasant surprise there, would love to see it implemented in more sets

[@PsychoticSashimiS]

Finally, maybe EN fans of Love Live won't suffer as much anymore 😭 I'll finally run something other than my 8 2soul Ruby/Riko deck LMAO (I use to play the meta Chika/You deck from like 2017-2021 kek)

[@デク黒]

can you create a somewhat competitive deck wit the premium booster only?

[@TressasCollectibles]

Unfortunately this set cannot be played as a standalone set, there arent any climaxes in the set proper and it’s designed to be a bunch of reprints with new art

[@MannyGamboaTV]

I want nijigasaki in EN :(
