@Ranji74679734 I don’t see that happening, just look at the new sugar that was just revealed. And mamaragan to clear anti removal. The deck would be insane.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

Shanks Decken pair ban?
What are your predictions?

@OPTCGDrCat Let’s see if bandai wants full power up back

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@LucasTCGFEIN Okay, maybe Mihawk shanks pair ban

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@marshmellorcr Good calls

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@BenjiPermoda @endodoug Sounds fair to me and maybe the deck building would be more interesting with the free spots

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@endodoug If they ban 10c Mom in Robin, they should probably leader lock her. Because there’s a number of yellow decks waiting for their time to shine.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@MikeDiggs79 Pair ban shanks with Mihawk could lead to a Rocks era

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@MerryTCG_YT The giant card would have gone straight on my wall.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@XIXOccg Congrats, so many tops and still no worlds invite is crazy

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@OrangeSamuraiD I guess we'll have to rewrite the Flame Fruit Tournament in the anime. Robin seems to be the real winner.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@mro__gaming Could be a way to get through the early game without losing to much life

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

8k Blocker and 7k leader for 4 Don.

No Leader Lock could bring back a lot of black decks.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@Rick_JRPG_Gamer Why not?

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

The restand effect is really good and makes it hard to interact with your board for some matchups. I would not play more than 2 copies in the deck, because you will probably never play more than one on the field. I think in matchups like Mihawk, enel and Luffy&Ace 8c Kata is not good, because they have easy ways around it and it costs you a lot of resources to play him.

Eustass „Captain“ Kid in Robin

+ Good in the mirror, tanks the pressure applied by the opponent leader and you are constantly asking for 2ks on your leader swing.
+ Against luffy&Ace it enables your leader to constantly pressure life without an extra investment. It helps to stay healthy against several 7k attacks. You can attack leader with kid without depending on Big Mom.
+ Really good on curve at 6-7 Don
- Hard to play after 6-7 Don
- Could brick in hand. Especially in the early game, when you can’t use giant.
- Has no trigger and is not searchable
- Kid with cards like borsa, giant and slow slow beam decrease your consistency of hitting trigger, using leader effect, finding early game plays and finding the counter you need.
- It slightly worsens the Mihawk and the Enel matchup.

I would consider to play a maximum of 2-3 Kid depending on the expected meta. What are your thoughts?

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@j_quas „Base Cost“ makes the card interesting, it is probably really good against Sabo and Luffy.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@KT28112003 Could be an option

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

Healing twice every turn? Spandam sounds very defensive and trigger heavy, but he probably misses offensive power.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@OptcgUnc Yes, but it seems like a defensive deck, that heals with leader and a second heal card every turn. Could be wrong of course.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

@chlasho Teach has not a lot of flex spots, but if you can find a spot, it could help against aggressive decks.

[Benjo @Benjo_opcg]

Karoo seems to be a fun leader
