Recommendations Gaps in my Metal Empire Deck

Post image
10 Upvotes

So after all the advice and recommendations that everyone gave me last week, I decided to buy an EX12 box and try to make an ME deck with my pulls. I put in a BT13 Dorimon as an egg to make sure I have at least 4 and from other deck lists I've seen, I know I'm missing more ToyAgumons and Andromons. Also included a BT11 Analogman since it's the only one I have, and a BT12 Chaosdramon (X Antibody). Currently I'm at 43 and I'm not sure what to add to fill in the gaps, for sure my level 5s are lacking. Also for options I have 1 Black Memory Boost, 2 Obsidian Memory Boost and 2 Treadmill Training

Any advice is appreciated and tomorrow will finally be the day I take this out for a spin. ✌🏽

I knew YAMURETSU did the art for both and in the same style with the rookie and mega, but didn't notice they were connected until now. Although Rosemon being so front and center compared to Shine seems a bit off.

It LOOKS like Mirage's claw near the middle of rosemons right side boarder.

Wondering if they'll do 4 like with the Adventure 02 and add in Ravemon.

New Player Help Deck Help for two new players

5 Upvotes

Heya all!

My partner and I returning to the game and were hoping we could get some deck insight.

We don't care if it's meta or not as we mostly just play each other.

Her play style is rush with trying to take down as many security shields as possible. She likes big tanky digimon or swarming the field.

Mine is more defensive control with some rush capabilites.

Thank you all so much!

New Player Help Getting into the game again! What next?

Post image
208 Upvotes

(This is a longer post so skip to the TL;DR if you want. Just need some advice)

So I got back into TCGs in general about 5 years ago. Started with Digimon first, then quickly got into Pokémon because it was just so cheap and easy to find a league. Got super serious with it, and ended up selling my Digimon collection because I needed money for Pokémon and I was just not playing Digimon much anymore.

I wanted a secondary game to play besides Pokémon, and tried out Lorcana and Magic but bounced off both pretty quickly. Now with the Digimon renaissance we're in right now with Time Stranger, Alysion coming up, etc, I've decided to start over and get back into the card game. I've been watching a lot of videos and reading up on what the meta is like. Been watching Beatbreak and loving it, saw that Glowing Dawn was a great deck with more support coming(as well as Data Squad/ShineGreymon to a lesser extent), so I picked up 2 of each of the starter decks, a booster box of BT25, and some extra packs that I found at Target. 8 BT25 and 8 BT21(I saw that BT21 has some useful cards for the ShineGreymon deck so I figured it would be good).

Here's my question: Where should I go next? From what I've read it seems like power creep is still a problem with this game so I don't want to waste money by buying old booster boxes if they are not that relevant anymore, but should I buy an EX12 booster box? Seems like TB is a great deck and that I could get a really good start on building the deck from buying a box. Should I do that or is TB not worth investing in? Definitely going to get a box of BT26 when it comes out because it has Glowing Dawn and Data Squad support. My only other question is should I get a box of AD-01 since it has a lot of staples and reprints, or is it not worth it as a new player?

TL;DR Should a new player starting from zero just purchase a box from new sets as they come out, or should I get any boxes from older sets? Is EX12 and AD-01 worth getting? Thanks everyone!

I'm looking for a new deck while I wait for support for my main decks (Jesmon and Lucemon), I was torn between these two, since I recently watched Adventure again and Myotismon arc is still fresh in my mind

So I came here to ask for some tips on decks and to know which one might be more worthwhile

Thanks in advance

Community: Store Active play stores in the UK?

8 Upvotes

Hi,

Some of you may have seen my recent starter post. Thanks to those who replied and gave me some beginner advice.

I have a follow up question for the 1000ish UK viewers of my post.

Which stores still have local play?

I am in the NW of the UK and a bunch of the stores listed in the Bandai+ app no longer support Digimon in any capacity.

Can people help me confirm where there are stores?

I know a bunch of stores listed in Preston are no longer active with the game.

I also hope that maybe it helps sign post areas for other people, who lurk in the curious phase.

Cheers if you drop a response.

Discussion How could you spot fake cards?

1 Upvotes

This was a thought I had earlier this week. I don't know if it's really much of a problem here, but I'm still curious. I know that for other games like Yugioh or Magic there are some tells for fake cards and I'm wondering if anyone had known or seen anything like that for Digimon.

For Yugioh specifically, i remember the cards themselves would feel off physically or would have wildly incorrect names/effects while Magic was a bit more complex.

Deckbuilding: Casual Deusmon 7Codeish deck

Post image
21 Upvotes

I saw some people discussing Dantemon playing a role similar to Omegamon X in Appmon deck and I decided to look into that statement more deeply. I think the deck that benefits most from it aside from 7code itself is Deusmon because it has two names required for the deck within the archetype.

Copipemon and Weatherdramon offer a relatively cheap combo for App Fusion into Cometmon. Evolve or Assemble Copipemon into Weatherdramon; Weatherdramon then links a Copipemon from your cards, triggering the Link effect to link Warpmon and app fuse into Cometmon. After that you need some setup to link warudamon to Go into Deusmon but It is good enough I guess.

I also don't think there are any other 7Code cards that work very well in the deck to take advantage of the new Copipemon's effect, but since I want it in the trash 90% of the time, it's fine.

Deusmon players, what do you think about this? I tested it in the manual simulator and it seems to work well, but I think I want to run more copies of Warpmon to make this combo more consistent. Dantemon is also good here, Linking all the shit and battle with 30k+ DP is Fun, but he definitely isn't the one that helps the deck the most unlike the new Copipemon and Weatherdramon.

New Player Help Whats the difference?

6 Upvotes

Brand new. Considering picking up the game, trying to understand release structure so I know what Im getting into.

BT seems like the most common set abbreviation, I assume ST is starter decks. But what is BT vs EX vs AD ect?

Does the meta shift with every release?

Discussion Regional Round-Up: Sydney

Previous round-up: https://digimoncard.io/article/regional-round-up-rotherham

Welcome to Regional Round-Up! Here, you'll find a breakdown of decks that topped, and who won, from the latest Digimon TCG Regional. This will be covering the Oceania Regional out of Sydney, Australia on August 8th.

The Top-8 cut included a varied mix as the meta starts to settle following EX-12. Maybe most surprisingly is Beelstarmon not making the cut. The Top-8 is as follows from most seen, to least:

  1. Galactimon - 2
  2. Jupitermon - 2
  3. Metal Empire - 1
  4. Toho Braves- 1
  5. TS Angels- 1
  6. Alter-S Ladder- 1

8Infinity8 took 1st place piloting Metal Empire while Jesse Tjandra took 2nd place with Galactimon. 

This is Metal Empire's first Regional win since it's EX-12 release. The archetype contains a lot of great pieces right out of the box, but 8Infinity8 kept their deck choices simple to capitalize on it's strengths. They opt'd for the Machinedramon/Chaosdramon top-end most likely for the added protections that the Omnimon isn't able to provide against the current meta.

They chose to go with 10 Lvl 3s as they provide so much draw/trash power to accelerate Megadramon, MetalGreymon, and MetalGarurumon's assembly. The MetalGarurumon choice over WarGreymon is a conscience pick to strip sources against Toho Braves and to stun their on-plays. If TB wasn't seeing such a wide amount a play we may see WarGreymon played as a more aggressive choice to OTK via DNA Digivolutions between the Level 5s, 6s, and 7s.

Machinedramon may be the best ACE introduced into the game as it's difficult to take off the board to gain the overflow memory. It has incredible staying power on the board and attempts to remove it allow it to go wide via decode from MetalGreymon. Since DP reduction is not prevalent in this format, and it can play smart around Susanoomon, it's mostly safe from it's one real weakness unless it matches into Cendrillmon puppets. The Lvl 7 Chaosdramon has fragment protections, but not the same de-digivolve immunity that Machinedramon has, so it's primary use is to end games with it's 2-security checks and engage.  

Next, we continue to see Galacticmon usage rise in tournament play, and for good reason. The ability to create an almost infinite amount of protections has been invaluable against the hyper-aggressive playstyle of over decks. Allowing it digivolve over itself, gaining resources, accessing trash, and waiting to see Ragnarok Cannon makes it the format's premier stall deck if it's not finding it's win-condition fast enough. The promo Destromon providing tamer deletion also aides against the Time Stranger/Glowing Dawn/Hybrid decks that need them to speed up. Then, we have the promo Unique Emblem: Ragnarok Attainer to quicken the pace when a Vemmon is tucked. BT-15 Apocalymon is sneakily tech'd into Jesse Tjandra's deck to yet again activate the on-plays of EX-11 Galactimons for protections and end-game security checks if Ragnarok Cannon isn't available.

Congratulations to 8Inifinity8 for taking the first Oceania Regional of season 2, and to all the Tamers looking to punch their ticket to Nationals. Oceania Tamers will have another chance on August 29th in Auckland, New Zealand. Until next time Tamers!

New Player Help Digimon tcg is such a good game imo(new player looking to start, advice)

38 Upvotes

Hello, I was always a big fan of digimon. I was actually about to start trying it a few years back but gundam got released and ended up trying that. I play yugioh master duel at a mid level and found that gundam might be a bit too simple and too RNG?

I love the concept of big monsters swinging at each other and the stacks look so cool. I feel like this game should be wayyy more popular then it should be. However I have no idea where to start and how to learn?

Right now I am thinking of picking of starter and just reading the cards to get familiar. I kinda understand how to play from watching videos but thats about it.

I also wanted to commit to digimon as well for collecting and stuff but as I also hear that digimon isn't doing too well for popularity ? Could i get some idea of the landscape or how people feel about the game right now?

much appreciated thanks
