Merry Christmas #fabtcg! Here's my Christmas present to y'all. One of FaB's oldest memes canonized.

Files below for you to mess around with. I intend to turn them into flyers local and have the xcf/psd available too.

Hey is there a place to provide feedback straight to lss about sets? I've had a lot of good discussions with others about omens as a product. I thought about screaming into the void of Twitter, but would rather not today

Tried out that new fangled Rengar deck. Having so much accelerate and ambush to ignore the movement in this game helped my enjoyment a lot... But aren't I just ignoring a core feature of the game like this?

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

Been trying so hard to like riftbound. It's a complete coin toss whether I'm having fun regardless of if I win or lose

Early game, especially at low power, is just so boring, frustrating, volatile? Choices you have to make to not auto lose/win on the first showdown suck imo

@klarecosplays If you're expecting LSS to handle unvoted heroes, or trying to remove playstyles that require heroes, you're probably ignoring Ira

Her text is actually just..okay and is mostly a generic deck carried by Kodachi. There's a chance that if Kodachi Ninja is good, you won't need Ira

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@masoneclark Nah. That's a yugioh dig. That game is notorious for power creep as functional rotation.

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@SigmaOrDoS @PitchItToMePod Yeah, my statement is entirely ignoring SAge. There's an obvious product reason for that one.

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@fA_3132 Yeah, it's recency bias. No one's looking further ahead than in front of themselves

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@OfTheTaco It's kinda frustrating how they just refuse to print or allow anything that could be considered a power card. Really sauceless

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@matt_iwnl I really like the tournament pack idea you presented. I'm just worried that comparing ourselves to IP games is going to be hopeless for generating prizing

The amount Best-Of Metals go for is not a rational imo; it's purely the IP mania bumping it. They don't even look that good

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@IIbisu Bleeggh. I was talking about this with an LSS rep recently, namely about improving Battlegrounds to be more attractive/plentiful

That said, I despise how the modern grinder scene just chases bank. Can't pull anyone of serious weight locally because Riftbound is so profitable

@cooljamz3d Well, duh. Konami's been a dogshit company since the inception of Yugioh. They weren't even treating us right in the beginning.

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

Been noticing this too. I think Riftbound might be turning into a Pokemon. Packs with no value (despite costing above MSRP) because people opening for lottery tickets (aka Signature Cards)

It's nice as someone treating Rift as a side game, but pack prizing does suck on average

[Asefron @Tekkadraw @Asefron29]

Me preocupa la situación del material sellado de Rift, cada expansión las cartas valen menos, y no me malinterpretéis, está bien que el juego no sea tan caro como lo era en Origins, pero si el promedio de valor a abrirte en una caja son 30 euros, para que vas a abrir?+

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

This is some of the dumbest rules management I've ever heard. It's a miracle the game came out remotely playable with all this rules flip flopping, both unintentional and intentional somehow.

[Dave Guskin @davetron]

Hey Riftbounders - we've discovered an area of ambiguity causing confusion for judges globally that is centered around the rules for copying tokens, such as with LeBlanc and Reflection tokens.

With Unleashed’s launch in China, their judge community received official guidance from us that tokens copy everything about the unit including whether the unit is a token or card and this replaces the copy’s trait with this information. (1/4)

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@TCGplayer @fabtcg Does this mean your card sorter will actually sort fab bulk now?

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

Sett in Unleashed is testing so well. Need to see how he does into meta but he has all the components of a functioning deck thanks to extra card draw and ambush. Faefolk is crazy, Arena bar feels so much better.

Won my #fabtcg Skirmish. My opinion on SAge hasn't really changed from it. Out of 6 games, only 1 wasn't a functional auto win for me.

Kinda boring when things are going well.

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

Finished drafting the #FaBTCG duos cube tonight. Dorinthea/Ira won by combining Edge with Perforate, Twist and Turn, and Edict to make explosive turns happen

Last week, it was big dumb Pleiades/Kayo juggling suspense, confidence, and pummels

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

I've been steadily updating this and it's very close to finalized. Me and gf believe this is the best #fabtcg cube out there.

I even assembled an archetype guide to give an idea of what you can do. https://t.co/35CvYYUMzM

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

I updated my GF's #fabtcg cube for PEN. Behold, Duos Cube!
https://t.co/bIqyqJJGzX

The gimmick? 5 heroes & you have 2 hero zones. Get an MtG-like draft & some very illegal combos

Anothos w/ Dori's extra swing. Crouching Tiger backed by RKO. Guardian 6s in Brute

Please enjoy!

[Notable Nobody @_NotableNobody]

@soldkou Part of the problem is FAB isn't new anymore and is still shaking off a bad reputation. It's early association with tcg investors and inflated prices during COVID scared people off

That and TCG culture here is very much fandom culture. 99% of players go to IP games or the big 3
