So happy to see this! Getting into FaB with the Aria blitz decks kinda sucked. Those decks felt like awkward piles of cards, these seem so focused and well designed. As a Commoner lover I'm going to stick to that as my teaching tool but it's great to have an LGS supporting product I can forward people to. :)
Those how to play cards are such a sweet include! Was so awkward looking stuff up when I first got into FaB int blitz decks. Also love how many playsets of cards they have. Rather than a bunch of 1 off rares making the deck feel very uncomfortable to pilot because you had to keep reading new cards. So excited for new FaB players. :D
brand new player here, just watched the Tolarian Community College pitfight episode having never seen any FaB gameplay before and was instantly intrigued so came over here, I havent even watched a "How To Play" yet...maybe I should since my biggest question right now is "how do you gain resources??" lol...and I'm sure that's in there Azalea and Uzuri both both super interesting to play though...might find more in depth info on those guys. THANKS FOR THE VID!!
I love that these decks make such a nice little pod that you can pull out when friends come over. So far they seem to play really well against each other and are nicely balanced. They're actually really good decks, too.
Great video Kel, looks like I can finally replace my traveling Ira learn to play decks with this brick - oh, and.. well.. not going to bother stating the obvious on my fav hero😉
They try to make them play better. This isn't a product for existing players. This is introductory for newcomers. It does not need to have special bling. Dromai was a disaster. This is actually playable and enjoyable
Yeah honestly with no foil cards, this has made the product dead, honestly majority of blitz decks would be purchased by existing players for the foil young heroes, and it still didn’t deplete access from these decks to new players. Also with no majestics or mentors, the product is a flop imho.
As a brand new player, i was thrilled my friend and i could drop 12 bucks a pop to get a real taste of the game. B, my LGS can't keep them in stock because people curious have a simple entry point. I think people forgot what starter decks are lol
Got Arakni and Azalea to try out the game. So far, Azalea seems to struggle playing her game considering Arakni's more consistent damage and access to inertia.
I really like this product. Having 6 different heroes lets you build a "battle box" like you mentions. Easy to use for quick casual kitchen table games or teaching people how to play. You can even get a display and give everyone 4 packs to upgrade their decks! This is how Blitz decks should be made and sold!
How do they match against the history pack 1 blitz decks? I wanted to make a 12 deck battle box 😅 auf deutsch, extra für Anfänger 🤭 greetings from Germany ♥️
@@RedZoneRogue thx! I guess i'll give it a go, since i need to teach my whole family FaB 😅 What do you mean with the arcane dmg? I guess that the Outsiders precons would be a Bit weak to it? Then i would Note it and Tell everyone before playing🫣 Thanks so much, for this and everThing you do, you are truly amazing for the Fab/tcg Community ❤
I'm officially revealing it tomorrow for the RZR 15k special! It's our own OC drawn by a FAB artist Crovius - the mat and sleeves are available right now on redzonerogue.com 😁
Rip off, for collectors that Expected foil young heros, mentors or full art, if I wanted to intro this i have plenty of bulk for teaching. Bad communication from Lss on this one.

Many FaB players asks the question: Is it worth it to buy Outsider blitz starter decks?
So happy to see this! Getting into FaB with the Aria blitz decks kinda sucked. Those decks felt like awkward piles of cards, these seem so focused and well designed.

I love the precon decks for quick play that's theoretically balanced against each other. I have way more than I'll ever need lol
Been curious about the game for a while but never see the cards anywhere. Decided to order this recently and looking forward to trying the game out.
Cheers! I hope you have a blast!
Some of the best precons I've seen for any tcg. Full playsets, simple well made decks. Perfect for newer players. Well done lss!
Great video Kel, looks like I can finally replace my traveling Ira learn to play decks with this brick - oh, and.. well.. not going to bother stating the obvious on my fav hero😉
haha I had to throw in a little #azaleacult in there ;)
No rainbow foil Young Heroes, Full arts of Adult Heroes, and no specializations like previous Blitz deck? Sad.
They try to make them play better.
This isn't a product for existing players. This is introductory for newcomers. It does not need to have special bling.
Dromai was a disaster. This is actually playable and enjoyable
@@TelucDK I don't see how no full art and foil make it better to play

No foils , and full art what a fail.

I have a set coming that I am keeping as a game night box. Excited to use them to get my friends into fab
Absolutely great idea!
Got Arakni and Azalea to try out the game. So far, Azalea seems to struggle playing her game considering Arakni's more consistent damage and access to inertia.
Amazing for new players. If they put 1 chase card in it tho like a full art card would make it sell more as current players will want it too

This is how Blitz decks should be made and sold!
I completely agree! 👍
I'm new to the game and picked up the Benji deck, so just to be sure, does Benji's hero ability apply to the Kidachis too?
It only applies to attack action cards so the Kodachis are unaffected!
@@RedZoneRogue Thank you so much!
Just got to the end. Fish boy is my favorite aesthetic but Uzuri takes it with her incredibly cool ability!
How do they match against the history pack 1 blitz decks? I wanted to make a 12 deck battle box 😅 auf deutsch, extra für Anfänger 🤭 greetings from Germany ♥️
The HP1 decks are also VERY good! I haven't played Outsiders vs HP1 but I imagine they might be good together (arcane damage might be rough though)
@@RedZoneRogue thx! I guess i'll give it a go, since i need to teach my whole family FaB 😅

🙋♀️alot of information, hence the long video. Still a good video RZR!🥰
Wow interesting...tq for making this blitz deck video... As I request... Tq very much this help me a lot
Treating these as sealed decks with nullrunes gear added to the sideboard lol 😆
Did i missed the Part with the Tokens?😅
So for Flesh and Blood do you need to buy 2 decks to have a playset of things like a lot of other card games or is one deck enough?
For Blitz a playset is only 2 cards so these are will have playsets of many of the cards. For Classic Constructed a playset is 3 cards
@@RedZoneRogue thank you I appreciate it
Which Playmate is this? It looks beautiful.
I'm officially revealing it tomorrow for the RZR 15k special! It's our own OC drawn by a FAB artist Crovius - the mat and sleeves are available right now on redzonerogue.com 😁
@@RedZoneRogue Thx you for the fast answer. I ordered one. :)
No foils??
Benji is my boy.
So no foil hero, no mentor card, no specialization card and no full art card. Why should anyone except new players buy these?
I wouldn't recommend them to established players unless you want to use them to teach new players or make a battlebox kinda thing

It's what reviews like this are for! I hope to give folks more of an idea of what they're getting so they can make an informed decision!

How do these match up to past blitz decks? I imagine they are a bit weak without mentor?
