I have an idea for a new Lyrical ride line that I'm sure people would love. Here are the key points and ideas: - The flavor of the deck will be muscular idols. - The deck will revolve around checking the top X cards of the deck to gain advantage, and then shuffling the deck. The Vanguard, support cards and ride line cards will all have this mechanic. You will also gain gauge that will make your cards stronger. - You will have a token set order that allows you to have gauge, and also copy a card's top X check and shuffle effect, enabling you to have at least 2+ shuffles per turn. The order will be called the "Gym", and the gauge zone will be called the "Set" zone. - Every support card will check that your vanguard or ride line contains a specific G3 card, before enabling you to do a top X check and shuffle. This can also be paid with CB or EB or putting a card from hand into soul, lengthening the effect text. - Every card's top X check will be a different number. We will also make sure the card's name has a number as well, but the top X check will be a different number than the card name (eg. A card's name contains the number 6, but it checks top 7). - There will be effects that put cards from your drop into the Set zone. Your RG effects will proc based on the number of same copies in your Set zone, which will in turn generate specific token markers that can be put on your RG circles. - RG effects will also proc harder based on the number and types of specific token markers on the RG circle. There will also be effects that allow your to put cards from drop under RGs as gauge to help proc effects. This will ensure that players will need to constantly check and prove that they have the required cards at different places. The gauge cards under the RG circle will be named "Reps". - The deck will encourage you to build a specific amount of soul and burn through CB as fast as possible, but to perform your deck's gimmick you will always be able to CC the 1 CB required. This is to ensure that your damage zone is always face down, so when players want to check for things they have to turn things face up and remove cards from soul (and show Sets and Reps). - The art on cards will have a lot of bright colours, especially colours that don't work well with red text. - All cards will have a lot of red text, ensuring that higher rarity versions of cards are hard to read (because they don't have a text box). - Since this is a Lyrical deck, the highest rarity will be written in Lyrical language. - There will also be a Lyrical Tazer Lage that is locked to the deck, because Lyrical eventually gets everything. - RGs will be locked to specific circles so players know where to put their cards. To give players agency, every RG will be able to be placed on 2 different circles, and depending on the circle it will grant different red text effects. This is to ensure that players unfamiliar with the cards will have a higher chance to get confused. - All the cards will have their own typing (like Happy Toys), just so that there is an extra line at the bottom of the card that pushes the rest of the text box higher. - Multiple cards will gain and use different amounts of energy, forcing people with proper energy cards to pick up and put back cards many times a turn. - There will be several effects that put back specific types of cards back into the deck, but they will all be different (ie. 1 card puts back non-sentinel normal G3 units, and another puts back non-OT or heal G1 or lower cards). - After testing the deck, players will find that the deck is missing an important piece that pushes the deck to tier 0. This will be patched in the next wave of PRs. - Playing this specific ride line will allow you to play specific cards from other nations, because those nations don't have Gyms so they need to train on a flying whale. The cards haven't been decided yet, but you can find out what they are in the deck building guide on the website (or suggest cards below). Unfortunately, due to the fast changing nature of Gym memberships and New Years resolutions, these cards cannot be listed on the cards themselves. Ideally, through the card art and the amount of actions this deck will require you to do, you too can experience the sweat and tears that comes with being an idol (you will lose to time).

Pokemon Unite ending service.

Big changes for Riftbound 2027 events. All of them look positive. Highlights include points leaderboard similar to what Pokemon has, an increase in venue size to accommodate more people, and a dramatic increase in Showdowns (30-40 each season)! Right now, the amount of events has been a problem in the Oceania region so if there is an increase for it, it will be huge. The venue size increase is also tackling one of the biggest issues plaguing the top TCG space where people aren't even able to sign up to events. Big Ws.

They rebooted Vanguard the first time because it was too complicated and you had to carry more than just your main deck. Now take a look at our new Persona decks were all your rearguards need multiple tokens... – at Galston, New South Wales

This is rice btw – at Sydney, New South Wales

Insane mechanics bloat. There's so many processes or texts in Vanguard that can be streamlined.

I think it's the same place as last time, but that place was great so good stuff.

Remember when Bushiroad manually paired their tournaments with a slip? Then determined top cut by pulling the losers out of a hat? I remember (I was 1 of the 2 that missed top cut).

Damn, some of my favorite games was the Baldur's Gate series and Dragon Age (the first one). Huge loss.

Wow, actually huge move to build good will. If you think about it, the budget for staff travel and expenses can be reallocated to this.

Reminds me of Pursuit for some reason @CrisomeSV – at Sydney, New South Wales
