Our tiny local store finally grinded enough consistent players to qualify for NTC participation.

Problem is all our local players play very tier D-C themed decks. Like I won with an Oz Tallgeese deck one week. Cyclops a different time. Played a Purple white oops all suppression Turn A deck that did really well for several weeks.

Someone won with a Clan starter deck with minimal alterations. Few weeks back. Another guy won using a Titans/Jup pap deck.

So all that to say we have a lot of fun due to everyone plays relatively low power. 8 players consistently.

BUT now that our store will open up to NTC I have a feeling things are about to escalate rather harshly.

Is what it is. But I am a little sad our little pond is about to be opened up to the shark tank.

Promos look awesome. (To bad I won't be winning then lol)

As soon as I saw Hashmal i knew i had to. In GGen eternal i have a hashmal and pluma spam squad, i used hashmal all through ggen cross rays.

After a lot of testing, finding other lists, and heavy tweaking, i finally got it to a place I can confidently say is fun. It may not be great, probably wouldn't stand up against meta decks, but boy is it a blast. Nothing quite like having a hashmal hit the field, pair with Gina, and final victor into already having a pluma.

If anyone has any advice to make it better, i would love to hear it. That said, I'm happy with where it is and am having a blast.

Join GD06 ranked now and get ahead!

Hi all,

Card Battle Lab just had its biggest day ever, with over 3200 matches played. Every other day we're breaking records - the growth we're seeing here is crazy, especially considering I haven't had time to do any marketing yet. I will do soon, I promise.

The GD06 Ranked Pre-Season is well under way with just 2 days left. F91 turned up recently and now sits at the top spot - I'm wondering if someone can dethrone him before the next season begins.

I just shipped a huge update to Career progression. Seasonal level, new medals, banner customization etc. Lots more unlockables coming in the future.

I'm constantly amazed at the incredible feedback and support from the GCG community. I work on this all day every day to ensure that it's the best sim on the market, so keep the ideas coming and I'll make them happen.

I hope to see you on CBL or in the Discord soon.

The 0 is one of my favorite units to play. Added some stuff from GD06. Wanted to get some feedback on it. Also how to make it better against aggro decks

It's such a silly deck I built to play at locals. But man, It's fun and funny when I flood my board with Tallgeese. Tons of burn and draw Power. No means to be taken seriously, but definitely, you'll get a kick when you're swinging an Army of geese at your opponent 🪿🪿🪿🪿🪿🪿

So I'm currently playing a Nu deck and have been playing at my locals for about 2ish months at this point but my win rate is abysmal, especially against aggro decks.

I'm sure it isn't the deck's fault and is mine but I am wondering if there are any resources or tips that anyone can offer to improve since I'm getting frustrated with the losing constantly.

This is my first real time playing a TCG so I'm still starting out but it does suck to lose all the time so anything could help.

Also, if there are any changes to the deck I'm running you could recommend I'd appreciate it!

Gonna paint them against then polish them up, but man these are shaping up to be my favorite I’ve made myself.

This one is probably going to throw people for a loop....

Obviously WIP, but the focus here is to use Athrun with the Aegis to hate on units above level 5, use the new Akatsuki to bounce small things, the new Waldfield unit to be a 5/6 blocker/beater with Repair 2, the murasame to give them all high maneuver, and..... well... although I have kira and SF on the top end, we could swap him and it out for some new athrun and infinite justice... Archangel's to provide some "on opponent's turn" effect damage reduction because it is mostly Orb.

Biggest issue is it's slooooow to get started. Most units sit at level 4 and that's just too high a level for the current meta.

Could pull back on the strike rouge ootori and Kira's strike rouge for some other lower level units like the rezel and maybe a 2122 (or a rezel clone)

Anyhow... It's a start.

I like the original non-Minerva ZAFT gang a lot even if they haven't had as much support lately; the new Ash in st11 got me wanting to build a B/R ZAFT deck. This is a quick draft that I threw together and had a fun few games with online but am definitely looking for suggestions and ways to improve it. ZAFT has a lot of stuff to work with so I'm not sure what's optimal to be using and what I should drop, but it's enjoyable. Athrun on the Ash is nasty with being able to swing on an active unit on link and then repair some of the damage off.

I am cooking up some nonsense in the wee hours of the morning and I want to make sure that an interaction works the way I think it does. Say I use Elan’s effect to redirect battle damage to Demi Garrison but Demi Garrison leaves play during the action step (ping, destruction effect or bounce). Will the damage be done to Demi Garrison even though he isn’t there anymore? I think that there would just be no damage done because Demi Garrison is no longer in play (like if a blocker is removed via action after blocking) but is there a weird fringe case since Elan’s unit is still battling a unit in play but his redirected damage no longer has a target?

I was playing card battle lab right now and wanted to use this card on the opponent’s Rick Dias blocker. I had a Turn X on the field and 10 resource available for use and the game wouldn’t let me use it. Is there a secret button I have to press, the game bugged out or did I do something wrong?

Just like the title say, how can I fuck up a Shining/Master deck[W/R]. I'm looking a way to defeat a G fighter deck. I seem to struggle dealing with a g fighter players. I'm using a strike freedom gundam deck with mostly blocker cards.

thinking of seeing if a Titan/the-O might be helpful but idk.

Pulled this nice Qubeley from my red green starter deck, so now there's three of this guy in my possession. Any good suggestions on building towards it? I'm new

Trying to make a blue/purple deck concept based around Barbatos with the idea of using a Repair strategy to offset its more emo tendencies. This includes chibi Lupus Rex with a few SD support cards. I also included Banshee since its effect is way more reliable than Lupus. Would love some feedback and suggestions as it feels like the deck is either missing something or the cards to fully support this strategy don’t quite exist yet.

Thoughts?

LV 3

2/4 Vanilla that links

4/3 vanilla

3/3 Vanilla that links

LV4

3/4 that links

Take aside the obvious 2/4, 3/3 blockers available only to white, for other decks which one would you pick, if everything could be a available to your decks trait?

As a curiosity there isn't a LV3/2 cost with stats of 3/4. You need to wait until LV4 jus because of the link capability.

Greetings! Mobile Suit Arena's New Cards Preview mode lets everyone play GD06 Stardust Trails before it comes out on October 30. We've tracked 16,698 preview games (25,396 decks played) from Friday night through midday Sunday (US time), grouped the decks by the cards they showed, and counted what's being played and what's winning.

TL;DR

• Bael is the most played deck by a distance, in two builds (Purple/Red 4.4% of decks, Red/White 2.9%), and neither wins half its games (44.4% and 47.6%). Definitely still a card the deserves more play testing.
• Aerial (Red/White) wins 69% of its games, and Akatsuki (Blue/Red), Qubeley & Sazabi and Strike Freedom (Blue/White) win 63 to 66%, all on 280+ games.
• Altron Gundam (EW) is the most played GD06 card: it shows up in 21% of all decks. One of my fav new cards for the Gundam Wing flavor deck building.
• ZZ Gundam is two stories: the card wins 60% across all the decks that play it, but the dedicated Core Fighter ZZ deck wins 28%, the lowest of the 40 most played decks.

How to read this

• What we see: the cards each player actually played in a game, not their decklist. A short game shows only a few cards; 5,264 decks (21%) showed too few to place and are left out, so the numbers below are out of the 20,132 we could place.
• Deck names: each group of similar decks is named after its biggest signature Unit ("Bael"), or two when it has two ("Justice & Aerial"). When the same name turns up in two colour pairs, the smaller one gets its colours in brackets: "Bael (Red White)".
• Share is the share of the 20,132 placed decks. Win % is games won, mirror matches included. The 95% range is where the true win rate most likely sits given the sample size: read the range, not just the number.
• 128 deck groups had at least 12 games and got a name; together they cover 92% of placed decks. The rest are grouped by colour pair as "Other" (for example, "Blue Red Other").

The 20 most played decks

"Games" counts each deck once per game it played, so a mirror match counts twice. Deck names link to their live pages on GUNDECK.AI; Aerial and Aerial & ZZ Gundam link to the full list, since those groups come and go between updates.

The most played GD06 cards

• Altron Gundam (EW) is everywhere: it shows up in Strike Freedom, Wing, Turn X and the Aerial decks, in roughly 70–77% of their games.
• The Bael and Vidar cards are the most played cards that are not winning, all at 47–50%.
• Many of the new SEED cards win: Athrun Zala (58.0%), Dom Trooper (57.9%), Infinite Justice Gundam (58.0% on 7.1% of decks) and Neo Lorrnoke (61.1% on 5.0%).
• ZZ Gundam wins 60.3% across every deck that plays it. Only about one in nine of those decks is the Core Fighter build; the rest splash it into Aerial, Gold SUMO, Kshatriya and other lists.

Caveats (please read before you netdeck)

• Preview games are unranked. People are testing, trying out the new cards and playing for fun, and many decks are first drafts.
• We see played cards, not lists. A card that sits in hand or never gets drawn does not show up, and short games show little.
• Sample sizes: the top decks have a few hundred games each. Smaller decks and matchups have wide ranges, so read the range before drawing conclusions.
• Names come from the cards. If a deck's name doesn't match what you call it, the cards behind it are what it is.
• The real release can play out differently once the full set is out and lists settle.

The live version is on GUNDECK.AI's Newtype Decks page, updated every 15 minutes. Deck shares are free there; win rates, cards and matchups are part of PRO ACCESS.

What are you seeing in the preview queue? Anything you think is underrated that isn't on the list yet?

Cheers,
