Ultimate Axiom Breakdown!! | Altered TCG - Beyond the Gates Review

[@ulysses2134]

I absolutely love how you constructed the review by having it relate to the heroes rather than looking at the card as a single unit!

[@hellgast0]

That's going to be harder as more sets will release

[@francoisg426]

Great video, thank you ! I like how you did it, you cover every card and it's concise. Keep it up!

[@TricksterCG]

Thanks for the feedback! I might experiment with a slightly different format for the next video. Let me know which one you end up liking more!

[@_VOID1355]

Great Breakdown. Will be interesting to see how the ratings change after the first tournaments. Yzmir next

[@TricksterCG]

It will be interesting! Without a ton of major events right away I wonder how long it will take for the meta to settle.

[@trunks85]

Very good video. My first Treyst deck idea don't have cards with good ratings xD but anyway, always cool to have people thoughts about all cards like that, especially from you ! :) Looking forward Lyra !

[@TricksterCG]

Thanks 🙌 I am pretty set on how I like to play Treyst, but I'm sure there are other ways to play it and maybe they are even better than what I have found so far!

[@StephaneRoumanille]

Great content! Can't wait to see the other factions:)

[@guilty_neco]

More of these kinds of videos please! Love the content!

[@BotaFaCose]

Great video, and I appreciated all the long explanations even on weaker cards. That’s the perfect format good players are looking for :)

[@TricksterCG]

Thanks, watch out for the second instalment tomorrow!

[@woundsdrone]

Trickster, you are a gentleman and a scholar. Thank you so much for doing such a detailed breakdown.

[@TricksterCG]

@@woundsdrone thank you! With such a positive response I hope to do more soon.

[@williamventura1118]

Congrats ! I love this review !

[@besjfo8292]

Great video. I like the fact that you cover all the cards in interaction with all heroes. The only improvement point I see in the video is to not include the textless version of the heroes when explaining them. For the people who are not familiar with all the heros it will be much clearer.

[@TricksterCG]

That is a great point! I will be swapping out the heroes in the next video with the ones that have their effects.

[@nesterpilgrim]

Yes please! More breakdowns would be welcome. I'd be looking for Yzmir or Bravos before GenCon if that is in the cards!

[@TricksterCG]

Might be a little tight! I'll try and get a video up for whatever has the most votes by then 🙌

[@nesterpilgrim]

@@TricksterCG Fair! Don't sacrifice your awesome quality so I have a slightly better chance during the draft 😂

[@andyforge]

Amazing video!! I'd love to see Muna next 🙏

[@Vammaaa]

Amazing, that's very helpful, especially for drafts coming up

[@jorgegarcia1418]

I'll be getting my cards next week, so this video series will be neat to start making my first decks :)

[@TricksterCG]

That's exciting!! I hope you pull some incredible unique cards!

[@Dehwit]

Thank you! Looking up for more Videos :)

[@ragingmonkey137]

Love the video. You should do Yzmir or Bravos next!

[@koalajackalgaming1337]

Thanks! Would love to see Muna or Yzmir next.

[@jeremypotet9324]

Great contents, thx for the video

[@arzhmael7799]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge ! Looking for Lyra

[@eliseosilva9534]

Very great breakdown! Hope you make one for Muna!

[@andreamenegatti-c6f]

Thank u Trickster it's a good faction review!! Explanation card by card from an experienced player can help a lot to novice players to help us enter the gameplay better. So I know it requires time and efforts but it would be a great thing if u can do the same for other factions when you have time: a good mind review for you but precious resource for us 💪💪

[@TricksterCG]

Glad this video is helping people! With the positive reviews I definitely want to make more 💪

[@PiperRECs]

Nice video on the Autobots

[@fotzegockel1]

great vid, yzmir and bravos next pls ❤️‍🔥

[@blondin2fr]

Subscribed, liked, do more like these please^^ !

[@4getMeNot84]

Very interesting. Yes please do the same format for the other factions 😊

[@altaripa8130]

Thanks for the video. Ysmir next 😉

[@cto2702]

Perfect! I think Ganesh C can work well in Sierra, we’ll see

[@TricksterCG]

@@cto2702 for sure! It could definitely be strong and is worth testing. In the right situations I think it can be an absolute powerhouse but I just worry it will be dead in your hand enough people will get tired of the card. With the option to put it in the mana though that might not be a problem!

[@_mxmdn]

I liked the way you presented it. It was clear and precise. Very easy to digest! I just want to see what happens next, in any order, I don't care. It might be handy to have a summary table at the end of the video, what do you think?

[@TricksterCG]

That's a good idea. I thought about making one and decided against it to save time. Would it be okay if the table only had card names instead of pictures like other tier lists?

[@spencerthompson9595]

Quality!

[@arriasl3306]

Hello ! thanks for the video ! Could you please use the non full art version of the hero in the intro ? I had to search their ability by myself, I don't know them fully yet and I believe I am not alone

[@TricksterCG]

@@arriasl3306 that is a good point! I’ll make sure to do so in future reviews.

[@RarecuisineSaucegod-ig8bc]

Pack filler still has a use in limited play, something I really like about Altered

[@TricksterCG]

This is true! And I don't think any of the cards are bad enough that they will only be a mana orb in sealed and draft.

[@elijahmoore9414]

I'm only a bit into the video but for some of these cards it looks like the rare version is just a strict upgrade, like Foundry Mechanic, yet they got a lower score. Is that because of the opportunity cost of using up a rare slot in deck building?

[@TricksterCG]

You are exactly right! With only 15 rare slots available in a 39 card deck you need to be pretty picky. Some cards like Foundry Mechanic that you often discard from the reserve for a support ability won't get as much benefit out of the extra stats. I would probably choose to upgrade a different card.

[@GemaCoven]

Great content! If I may ask, could you do Muna next, please? 😊

[@TricksterCG]

@@GemaCoven seems like Muna and Yzmir are getting the most requests so I’ll try to get to them soon!

[@GemaCoven]

@TricksterCG btw, did you also had that moment that, as you saw Altered for the first time, you knew the faction you'd play the most? For me it was Yzmir 😀

[@TricksterCG]

@@GemaCoven that’s a good question. I don’t have a ton of loyalty to any of the factions yet but I’ll probably gravitate to some of the better ones because I really enjoy when things line up and a deck sings. I’m trying to stay unbiased so that I can make the best decision at the time for future tournaments. I also enjoy trying lots of decks but certain strategies do stand out to me as being especially fun to play. I like Teija, Treyst, Waru, Auraq, Arjun, Afanas, and Atsadi especially so far.

[@BrB_Astro]

Can we get an example deck list for Sierra please?

[@TricksterCG]

@@BrB_Astro I don't have an updated list right now but you can ask about it in the ExAlts Discord and I'm sure someone will have suggestions! discord.gg/ykkJYXAx6J

[@holyknightamax4833]

hey can you also do this for ordis ?

[@TricksterCG]

@@holyknightamax4833 I'm going to try and get to all of the factions! You're the first person to request ordis so I'll probably do some of the others first but I should get there eventually.

[@oliveroc5801]

Thank you I love you kept it concise, great to apprehend deck building with Axiom. You are speaking quite fast which is a challenge for a non native english speaker 😅

[@TricksterCG]

Hello, I am glad you liked the video! I do talk fast sometimes because I get excited and want to keep the video short 😅 Does putting the video on 0.75 speed help? There may also be an option to use auto-translated subtitles. If you are still having trouble after trying these ideas on a future video let me know and I can attempt to decrease my speed!

[@pauldestefano8469]

I enjoyed this review. Please consider reviewing other factions. To make this shorter and less work for you, you could omit any cards that would be rated only 1/3 across the board. I definitely want you to show us any card that is 3/3 for any given hero.

[@TricksterCG]

This is a good idea! I might do something like that or maybe lump them all together at the beginning and get them all out of the way at once.

[@ShadowPhex]

Great video! If it is too time consuming to go through all of the cards, it might makes sense to just go through the best and the ones you think might be over/under valued. A brief summary of the hero abilities at the start might also be nice. I haven't played in a while and had to look them up.

[@TricksterCG]

@@ShadowPhex including the hero abilities is a good idea! I'm working on the Muna video now.

[@macegb9364]

I ruined your 420 sub count. RIP uwu

[@TricksterCG]

@@macegb9364 somebody had to do it... now we just shoot for 690!
