I enjoy how to the point you are in your videos, not only did you show off example decks, you explained why they did so well and that really helped me understand this game just a bit more. Keep it up!
Great video. Nice to show some example decks and playstyles with the combos. I wonder how the popularity and strength of the decks changes with the physical card game, now that most people don't have all the super rares and legendaries they need yet. In the final tier list, I don't see Amber/Amethyst anywhere though, and Emerald/Sapphire seems to be in there twice. I assume Amber/Amethyst is supposed to be the one in tier 4, I think that's where I'd put it.
Ok so to see if you were correct about this list I have played about 100 games with each deck list. Green orange is trash. Purple red is king. Steel orange is pretty good and probably the best aggro deck in the format.
Honestly its just proof the makers didnt play the game... it has all of BREAD... the entire game takes place on the board. Yugioh and mtg have cards that never hit the field that can win you the game or have cards with resistances to avoid mass removal. Be prepared is 7 mana remove everything with no counter play. If you are aggro and dont land anything you auto lose, if they draw be prepared you auto lose. Any other colour combo doesnt have enough card draw to keep up. Who was like, lets put all removal in 1 colour? bounce is not removal if cards to have an in banish effect. Its just a delay or maybe remove a taunt and you have to trade anyway. If that deck doesnt have be prepared its way closer to a back and forth. Instant speed cards dont exist and theres no item to provent destruction at this time. The people who made the game are crazy... They printed a banable card in the first box... this is all purely because the game is won on the board and when you quest there is no confrontion, no way to block it from going through. I even forgot they have aladin a healing card. It is functionaly a heal. -2 then +2 you. Thats a 4 in tempo. Thats 2 lilos differance. Thats Negated 2 turns of development and removed a card. If you dont open perfectly into red purple you lose. Even if you open perfectly I have done the math you still lose. They have to brick. Thats why they are 80%+ of the meta. I loaded up a random deck list never played it and won 6 games in a row with no effort... a tier 0 on launch is a bad sign man. It bums me out. The card prices too. $200 a box. Thats a mtg modern set... @@ayekaytcg
Fair, should have mentioned that in the video, but I think this is still pretty representative of the meta on pixelborn currently with all cards released there.
My guess is it's in tier 3. Must be an error from the editor. Green and blue are kind ehh, other than ramping blue doesn't offer too much to green, other colors can do what blue can but better. Removals and looking at the top deck can be found from other colors like Amethysts and Ruby. Which is why I think they're meant to be in Tier 4.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your comment.
Dude thank you so much for your content these days. Really helpful in getting me into this game.
Glad to help!

Yes, you are 100% correct.
This is very helpful thank you
Glad it was helpful!
For the Green purple deck, do we have data if its the midrange variant or aggro variant?
We don't. The creator only published color combinations.

Yeah I would agree, Amethyst/Ruby is top right now. It's been strong on Pixelborn, and in most local scenes that im seeing.

I am right there with you on Be Prepared!
How much are things going to shake up with season 3 ..
The problem with this data is season 0 had long periods of time without all the cards. The data is quite flawed for this reason
Fair, should have mentioned that in the video, but I think this is still pretty representative of the meta on pixelborn currently with all cards released there.
Amber Amethyst data seems to be held low by the starter deck
Do you mind sharing the link to the data? Would love to take a look!
I noticed blue purple wasn't on the list, or maby I'm blind. Is it just that bad?
My guess is it's in tier 3. Must be an error from the editor.

@RvBnerd618 yah, but purple gives card draw and blue ramps. With some big haymakers it may be good.
Yeah it was my error when putting the colors on, I accidently put another color combo on the list twice.
