March 16th 2016 - Preconstructed Deck Release: Popoki

Well but that sad, it isnt a deck that needed a nerf that badly, i understand that its balanced for stadnart but why change it for the global format too?
Why not make a new card that has that effekt instead of doing the first nerve here?
No charakters like Zahal and mages will be harder to kill.
It Wil ltake the speed out of the tsoutai deck and you remove the chances of winning agaisnt fast mage decks like noz blast and pirate mages..because they dont let you build up your flawseekers cards...you just die....

Believe me, we took everything into consideration before suggesting this... there are cards that provide spirit bonus and enough attack to the Tsoutai now... and they still can use and .
And who knows, some day they might get more useful card, but this had to be done sorry

[GilgameshXII]

Well i dont really like that change to much but i guess i have to life with it.
Its just sad to see one of my favorite decks go down.
was it not possible to make this changes just for standart by introducing a new item?
Or making a useless card like the new effekt?
i hope youll give them anythign else because right now its just a worse .
Magick attack is in my opinion not that good of an option, you rarely chain with it and more than often its a dead card agaisnt fast decks.
And it baffles me that this is basicly the first nerv in ages?
wasnt REALY necesary.
But oh well, nothing can be done about it.

BTw, old katamaru still works like old text says.

Personaly i dislike neo althing more....that annoying legendary shield

Not the first one... think about . And I think that some more nerfs will be needed If we want a balanced game.

[GilgameshXII]

Well ok, i hope this will become a regular thing with nerving some cards.
i liked the new ban list for the amnezy tournament.
it really too some speed out of the game which i personally realy enjoyed.
goes i have to rebuild my tsoutai deck with some of those hyper expensive cards now...
But please dont releasy more cards like its just althing... but permanent.... i know it will be some time because its new and you want to make money out of it but please consider putting that thing on the ban list in 2-3 months......gives poor wariors and marodeurs an instant loss.

oh and if other nervs occur, pls show them and dont just hide them as re released cards.

[Pikadusk]

Eh, so poor warriors and marauders can't afford to shell out 10k-30k for ? With all the complaining I was expecting it to have increased in price a bit. Also complaining about 's nerf then complaining about which gives the opponent you are facing 0 defense making the second portion of katamaru pointless. You aren't even trying to remain constant, are you?

With that said, I can't help, but notice the older versions of katamaru haven't been reedited in English. Is the change in katamaru only for the new version and the older versions won't be allowed in standard?

For some reason, it takes more time for the staff to update older cards than to create new ones, but it will surely be reedited

So with that said they are just going to let the unedited versions run wild in Standard? I just ran into a tsoutai deck taking advantage of the unedited versions, I kid you not.

[Wolvos]

just wanted to say, tsoutai isnt a disruptive deck to nerf a card of his arsenal, they wont reach the op status as some other decks will and i hope if the gl team is really concerned about fun decks' balance i want to see them handle the highest winrate decks

and try to keep them playable instead of destroy them like lightning deck

this new character has no synergy at all with crows sadly
guem trackers needed something useful, elusive is a golem killer and the new character is not so good as human shuikan, but if you can manage to reduce the defense in turn 1 is great

[Man_Santichai]

Compare to the previous pre-cons' deck, this new character is very weak. I wonder who will pay money to buy this deck.

And the new char is not rare. So even if we don't buy the deck, we can just buy her later when the price go down.

Well the 2 complains were seperated fro meach other, dont mix that up.
The katamaru complains have nothing to do with last barrier complains.

And yes clumsiness helps, but cou can never really tell when the enemy is using this card so you basicly have 1 Free Althing effekt garantued at least.
and if you dont draw a clumsyness or mabye discartet your card like clumsyness because you need to survive agaisnt decks like marodeurs....wel it can just become a permanent althing.
I could argue that isnt to bad, just play i mean that stops althing so no problem right?



Btw, fun fakt we now have the possibility to build a ful lon crow / traccker deck because there are now 3 crow trackers in the game.
so that migh be fun to harness both of the best cards.
Like akrobati fight and the bell of the trackers and play tsumes and okugis trough it, could be fun.
