Even tho I don't play FoB I really appreciated the little cards showing up when he talks about a new deck he's facing. Ik it's extra work for the editor and not always worth it, but hello Mr editor, I just wanted to tell you that it was very cool when you did it and I'd really appreciate it if you could do it again :)
He's actually been super busy with University lately, which is why we haven't really had any uploads. I was really busy the last few days but I wanted to get this video out even if it didn't have the cards hovered
Ayyo! I was the first match Arakni you fatalitied (Black jacket with an arakni-mask pin in the pocket) I did /not/ respect the Kano; was fully expecting all the prisms to scare yall away. San Fran was actually my first ever event I traveled to for FAB. Even though it was an incredibly short match I appreciate the lesson XD
I love stacking Kano. It's super challenging - especially when the stack requires some sorting out to pull it off - but it's a huge thrill when it all comes together and you blaze for lethal. And just because you've chosen a stacking strategy doesn't mean you can't pop off if you find a window! Now...if I could just figure out how to play the mirror!
Pitch stack Kano is so stupid for balance and so satisfying to achieve. Like I like the sense of accomplishment when you do it. I played on talishar today and had a turn hitting second cycle where I spent 41 resources to play a disgusting kano combo. Also my experience learning it has been that 90% of blues don’t need specific memory. My house is my memory palace and all blues except gaze the ages and eye of ophidia are just blue jeans or bottles of Azul tequila based on if they are in a place i would set pants or food. So like I am in the kitchen and my tome of Aether wind is a cook book, and then in the fridge are two bottles of stupid expensive tequila. The only blues that get their own thing are gaze and eye bc eye cannot be hit with kano if I end up with a problem and having to banish a blue, and gaze can be hit to play and bottom two cards that I want to get rid of in the pitch stack.
"Let's talk about Kano", says he after talking about Kano in every single FAB video xDDD I literally started playing this game bc of you man, you owe me like 400 dollars already :D so keep talking bout Kano
This is awesome to hear since I'm working on this too. Is there any way you could talk about how to line up the tomes with blues? or how you start with a bad hand for your pitch stack?
Ideally you want to stack 2 blues after each Tome so when you get to stack you know that if you activate Kano into Tome, you know that playing Tome will draw you 2 blues. But this doesn't always happen when you're playing the game. Sometimes you'll stack 2 Tomes in a row or a Tome and then Blazing (or whatever) and then some blues. With your stack memorized, you'll know what to expect - so when you activate Kano and find the Tome you'll know not to play it right away but to activate Kano again to reveal Blazing - and then play your Tome.
It would be sweet if your starting hand (in a pitch strategy game) was like Tome, Blue, Blue, Wildfire or something - but it doesn't always line up like that. Sometimes the first few cards of your stack end up being garbage....or a bunch of blues. But knowing this about your stack - you are still in a good spot. It just means that you will DRAW into your stack instead of KANO-ING into it (if that makes sense). Memorizing the cards in your stack and their placement within the stack is crucial - but also memorize the logic of your stack. How is it gonna play out?
Is it really important to know the exact cards? I remember one of your stream where you were trying to remember which blues were after your tome, but the only important information is that there are 2 blues. When I pitch stack with kano, I just try to remember this: threats, blues, and tomes. Sometimes I remember more details about the threats, because this time it's important. But most of the time, it's "Ok, now I know that it's a tome, then a threat, then 2 blues, then a tome, then 2 blues, then 3 threats". And I just banish tomes and threats, draws blues, and once the threats are banished, I can see them and know in which order I need to play them.
Using this technique it's a lot easier for me if I remember the exact cards. Because then the other cards have context around them instead of just nameless blue
FaB is unique in that you get a brand new hand of 4 cards every turn. Having to take notes on every new card you see would be very cumbersome which is why it's just straight up banned outside of keeping track of life totals.
I'm sorry but you are so wrong. Kano isn't playing classic because he's rich, he's playing improv Jazz because he's a smug talented asshole and wants to flex his skills. Also, I took Kano to my local PQ after playing it once at the armory the same week and ended up 3-2. first loss was against Prism who dropped a Genesis on turn 0 then another on turn 1 and the other was a Katsu who did an AoW turn while I was holding a potion so I don't think I could have done better. After that, I got a paired into a Dash (OG, not I/O) and did a nice 60+ damage turn one so that felt good.
I'm a simple man. I see a Story Time FaB video, I click on it. Keep up the great work!

Come on man, I don't even play FaB but I really enjoy these story times, keep it up! :D
Have you considered playing FaB 👀
@@MajiinBae TBH I have! lol but you know the say, you can only get into 1 tcg at a time unless u rich lmao I currently play the pokemon tcg
Haha. Part of this story is about me! Seems fitting I get beat by the best Kano there is. (I was the Hatchet Dori)
Adding engagement for Flesh and Blood content, love seeing more of it, and glad you're enjoying the game so much!

"After a couple hours of practice, I was at the point where I was able to remember about 30 cards". I consider myself fairly smart but god damn...
It's the mnemonic trick! It works way better than I had expected
Good to see Austin get a shout-out here. Used to run with him back in his mtg days.
Appreciate the awesome Kano content! You're such an amazing storyteller!
More Kano you say? Really leaving your comfort zone these days ;P
Sitting here, watching this video, looking at the Richmond top 8, hoping for a part two.
Fab is goated. My fave tcg
Really want to see you playing another hero, Viserai and Prism looks nice.
Letsgooo storytime
You heard it here lss. We need a card generic card or an item that forces our opponent to shuffle their deck
Always love a story time
Still don't know how to play FaB, but love the stories.
I always found using a memory palace for the same task repeatedly very difficult because I often couldn't let go of my last iteration.
Yesss a new Majiin vid!
Think you'd like katsu mate, aggro/combo is a lot of fun. Also hanabi dash or DIO might be a good pick up

@@ryantame Yup! Totally agree with all this
Huh, this is how I learn why I’m so terrible at Kano. Before today didn’t know Aphantasia was a thing lol
So I'm curious if you happened to have rags fail due to a rhinar intimate could that mess up your combo to a substantial enough level?
Sounds to me like it's BOLTYN time! Farm the Prisms!

How does your Kayo buddy play a pitch stacking Kano? What does he do differently?
Don't be afraid to take off turns to set up bigger turns down the line
@@MajiinBae Thanks. I run Scour for those cast bones/agile windup turns. But I can see why those kinds of turns can be problematic.
Is it frowned upon or illegal to take notes? I’m been recently getting into Lorcana and saw a bit of debate about this, but people doing it anyways
It’s illegal to take notes
