  Tuesday, December 31, 2013    

Now this is something that I can say most of us weren't expecting until we saw the preview for the most recent episode of Vanguard. Despite it being delivered in one of the most random ways ever, Bushiroad created Blue Storm Industry Dragon, Maelstrom "Reverse", a reverse unit of one of the more popular Aqua Force boss units. Let's take a look at it, shall we?

[JCG] Deck Check: The Joker and the Thief

  Saturday, December 21, 2013    

It is safe to say that Link Joker have been ruling over the Japanese meta game for a good while now. Ever since their main debut in Booster Set 12, they have been a force to be reckoned with and they're becoming more and more of a problem. Today on Deck Check, we'll be analyzing the top Link Joker deck that's stomping out the competition: Chaos Breaker Dragon.

  Wednesday, December 18, 2013

Set Check! Booster Set 14: Brilliant Strike!

  Sunday, December 15, 2013    

Hello, and welcome to our first installment of Set Check! This series will mainly be a recap of what byak and I believe to be the most potent cards in the set of discussion, often around the release date of the booster so that people can start to experiment with the various meta game contenders early! We will discuss the top 3 decks that we find the best from the set in detail, giving acknowledgement to another 2 that we can believe will also make it.

Quintet Walls - Are They More than Perfect?

  Saturday, December 14, 2013    

With Booster Set 14 being released this week, we were officially introduced to a new kind of Sentinel: Quintet Walls. By now, we've grown so used to the original Perfect Guards that we can't live without them at this point. We were all used to throwing four copies into our deck because of how valuable they were, especially with the rise of Break Ride units. Now that Bushiroad has given us an alternative path for Sentinels, we need to ask ourselves: how effective are they?
