I started watching the anime so long ago and now the whole game has changed, i never lived near anyone who played. Hopefully one day i can finally get into, 10 years and still waiting
I actually just went to my local store and they said after the format changes, many people either quit or switched card games. Its rlly sad and they said theres only abt 2-3 rlly active players
The best part if vanguard is thay you dont have to wait for millennia to have your turn unlike some other card games. *cough cough* going second in yugioh *cough cough*
the sad part is that the waiting part is true even for tcg pokemon, but unlike Yu Gi Oh, in the tcg pokemon, after 30 minutes of opponent solitaire, you can actually play
On the counter point, there is NOTHING that plays like Yugioh. Yugioh is much nuance and still boasts far more micro-interactions in almost every game. I still enjoy Lorcana, Vanguard, Digimon and the like, but it just doesn't give the same feeling that Yugioh does... In fact, I don’t think any card game invokes the same feelings that Yugioh can provide when it comes to interaction. The unique nature of Yugioh is something I can never move away from.
@@cbgg1585yes I do agree nothing is more anger invoking than yugioh. The game where if you’re not going first and don’t draw the perfect hand you lose by turn 2… and not to mention the $1000 deck cost just not to even play more than 3 cards half of the games
i highly enjoyed this vid, i've played the game when it first came out and got out of it cause i was more of a yugioh player back then in 2011. but i got super involved with Vanguard last year and started collecting again. im glad it has a bigger community now a days
Why isn't there a video like this for every live western TCG right now? Awesome video. I wonder if there's anything like this for Force Of Will? The more the video goes on, respect intensifies.
This was a comprehensive explanation for sure. I realized that the last time I visited a card shop was for this game back in 2013. Nice to see how it's grown 😄
Great video! Very well explained and broken down! Just subbed. Keep up the great work! Looking forward to more content! 💪 I will refer this to new players to help them in their journey into Vanguard.
Glad this is still going on. I started when the first season came out. Glad they haven’t changed to much with it. I’ve always liked how it’s deck building but tcg at the same time.
Very nice and informative video! One can sense that you really like the game, keep it up. Oh and a better microphone would go a long way. But still great video and I hope for more
I'm very interested in getting into the game but It's kinda sad to see that there isn't really an accessible digital format. That's usually my preferred method of playing these games. I got next to no knowledge about the game but you really helped clarify things like the different reboots, awesome job!
My take on this is that if you’re locals provide pre orders, take them. Some shops charge about 100$-200$ depending on the nation. Usually that’s a great price to pay over time or to be set on a reasonable price that doesn’t ruin your fundings with on release prices and quantity.
Awesome video, I'll pass the link to any new players... With only exception on C tier.... Everyone keeps telling me Mediell is crap and C tier.... For some reason I find it's like B tier. I beat A tier decks, not consistently, but still not that rare, so some C tiers are just slept on. So new players need to be careful there too... Not everything that people say is crap, is actually crap😅 Thanks for the awesome video. You're awesome with how laid back and informative you were.
@@sheriffvanguard6556 Mediell just like any other deck, if you're into it you can pull it off 😉 There are some decks that really need support, Mediell has her issues, but that restanding rearguard with crit and drop zone recursion is pretty fun. But I understand I'm biased as I simp over her 😅 Again thanks for the awesome video and I obviously subscribed to your channel as well.
Perfect timing. I just got into it last month, coming from Yu-Gi-Oh, and what makes me start playing Vanguard is ironically Dear Days. The full art cards are simply otherworldly compared to Yu-Gi-Oh's frankly more limited art space. Bought an Alden deck as my first deck and can't wait to play!
@@f1r3hunt3rz5 people were just upset his new form with the divine skill doesn’t go above and beyond. They’re just looking at the wrong part of him though, his abilities and rear guards make up a pretty sweet strategy that’s showed some competitive play recently!
Glad to know my old Gold paladin started deck can still be used in standard format. Vanguard is the only TCG I have real interest in playing but the only shop near me don't sell it and I'm not even sure if any other shop still sells Vanguard in my country. Such a shame
When it cames to V series, V my be a little broken based on the community, but by far is the fairest and most consistent series out of every other series, because v series could get you a good playable deck for cheap, specially the vanguard units, and their probably the most powerfull and scraiest in terms of offence with multuple attacks on 20-30k something each attack or with 3 attacks as heavy as 50-70k each, their also probably the most brutal series. Overall their probably better then the other series at some point. The best part about V is that you can use almost any card in any deck with no problem as long as their from the same clan. While overdress on the other hand is kinda once you chose a deck your stuck with that deck and its support unless you change your deck entirely, it may be more player friendly but its also not the fairest one because instead of being a pay to win, this series is a pay to play kind, because you can barely play the game with only common rare cards in the deck. And the nations playstyle is not as consistent as V clans so you'll have a hard time mixing decks. But at the end of the day Vanguard is still the best and fairest cardgames out there.
what a great video! Im currently thinking of getting back into Vanguard (I played a bit with friends near the end of the G era with Chronojet) while I play YGO as my main one. Currently I'm considering playing when the Divine Z Start Up Trial decks comes out and playing at my locals Fated Clash release tournament. Is this a good starting point, or is there anymore I should look into potentially buying/ knowing about before jumping back in? thanks again !!
Glad to hear you're interested! The new start up trial decks are a bit awkward, a large majority of the cards in it are vanilla versions of cards releasing in fated clash (to make them easier for new players to learn) and even then once upgraded aren't very viable. If you're looking for a starter deck to help you get back into the game, something like the tohya starter deck for keter sanctuary is really good. Fated clash though is a great set with useful and good cards, so best of luck at the tournament if you decide to go!
the starter decks are roughly 10 dollars homie, its the stand-up decksets and stride decks that cost 50 bucks because they're meant to be more advanced decks (which are still cheaper than commander decks that serve the same purpose???)
@sheriffvanguard6556 sorry yeah I meant the stand up decks ;-;. But also I didn't hear that they are more advanced in the video and that makes more sense. Thank you for clarifying and I didn't mean to be critical or whatever I was gonna get it either way cause of nostalgia. Also commander decks aren't more advanced decks but more like starter decks for a different format.
I entirely disagree that Messiah isn’t playable outside of the box. It’s just as playable as Chronojet out of the box, in my opinion even more so. I also recommend that you don’t preach doom and gloom about Luard and Shiranui when you’re making a video for newer players.
Never said Messiah wasn't playable out of the box, just that chronojet is more complete by comparison. Also wasn't necessarily trying to doom on shiranui or luard, just talking about them (and how they'll likely be good decks again with their track record). Believe me when I say I don't want to scare new players away either, I made the video so people could get into vanguard easier after all (plus I believe stride decks are good for the game anyways, good decks at an affordable price is good for players who can't afford something like youthberk)
@@sheriffvanguard6556 totally agree, love how affordable the stride decks and the stand up deck sets are. Regardless of my nitpicky complaints, thanks for the video :) always down to get people into our favorite card game.
My buddy got me into Vanguard with Premium and I've been enjoying it, even when he beats my ass in new and exciting ways, and I'm about to try to get a friend of mine into it too. I was just surprised by how well balanced the game was. Even if you wanna say Premium format got wonky, it's nowhere near as bad as Yu-Gi-Oh has gotten.
I've gotten the chronojet deck, and im trying to think of upgrades for it. And so far, i can't think of any. Next one I'm getting is either Gramgrace or Favrneel. Don't know which one, but one of them, since they come out bear my birthday.
Nice! The chronojet deck is pretty well complete but some better triggers can definitely help the deck. Also cool to hear you're interested in gramgrace and favrneel!
I'm just recently getting back into card games in general. Loving yugioh, despite how different it is these days. Glad that Cardfight!! Vanguard isn't dead. Sadly, I don't have $50 to spare at the moment...
Glad to hear you've been enjoying the hobby! It might end up costing extra with shipping but the sealed decks are usually quite cheaper if you buy the cards online from tcgplayer
@sheriffvanguard6556 the ones I found interesting were messiah, orfist, and the Shiranui deckset coming out February. But they're all still somewhere in the range of ~ $30-$50. I'm going to start with a few of the start decks, though since they're pretty cheap and I can give one to my brother, so I have someone to play against. 😅 I'll save up for a deck set or wait until my tax return.
Vanguard is a good side tcg. Just I don't recommend you to push high level play in it. Unless you want to have luck determined your games 70% of the time.
I didn't actually know about the stand-up deck sets had I known about them before I probably would have bought the orfist and favernel ones instead of the messiah deckset although I do really like the messiahs
Do you know if my p deck set vge-dz-ps02 is still playable? I got it because it’s from my favorite clan the shadow paladins but then I found out there are only 5 nations now.
@imteevy so that's a deck for premium, the format where you get to play all cards that ever came out. It's definitely a good deck you can play but the main format bushiroad supports is standard, which that deck doesn't work for
most recent is stride to victory which is JP only and has cards in the original era (so good card pool but will have some gameplay mechanics that are no longer really in standard)
I feel like standard needs at least 60 cards to run. I'm a bav main and it's hard to be creative when there's only like 10 slots left, after inlcuding all the triggers, arms, rideline and perfect guards 😅😅
Is this game super competitive? Like I tried to play yugioh once but everyone at the card shop I went to was super mean and didn't want to teach me anything. Is it any different in the vanguard community?
Kinda depends, there's definitely people that play to win and build top tier decks to win but a big grab for vanguard is the neat decks so a lot of players stick to their favorites regardless of how good they are. Bc of that, my locals was super supportive and helped me make my first deck when i started out. And now we still do the same helping new players that are interested. To answer your question I want to say no its not SUPER competitive but again in depends on where you look
So there's the official switch/pc game dear days thats online but costs money and there's the pc game cardfight area that's online and free but is much lower quality
tbh, 10k triggers, ride deck, imaginary gift and overtriggers made the game impalatable to me. 5k triggers were fine, you just needed more defensive options. Also, stride was definetly ruining the game economy, but in the other hand, you had a huge diversity of extra deck builds. And the power crept that Imaginary gifts made just make premium a fast forward format that they needed to errata old cards into super-duper-hyper-mega awesome versions for them to be used again. Also, because current stadard has the ride deck and you're guaranteed to ride that card over having different strategies and they took out the most power crept mechanic ever made, imaginary gifts, most new bosses have little impact on premium while having the same build over and over in standard. and tbf, Bushiroad never invested in the game like LSS does with FAB nor have a good eye for social formats like EDH ( mtg) or UPF (FAB), making the game even more monotuos.

Glad you liked it! I agree the lack of a good online game just makes it way harder to try it out:/
@sheriffvanguard6556 Give it time. Sure it'll happen one day as long as the community continues to grow.
My take on this is that if you’re locals provide pre orders, take them. Some shops charge about 100$-200$ depending on the nation. Usually that’s a great price to pay over time or to be set on a reasonable price that doesn’t ruin your fundings with on release prices and quantity.

You have locals? *insert that one meme from that one movie*

Great video!
Thank you!
Good video as an intro for my friends although I believe it is my own responsibility to show them how fun vanguard is if they want to play.
I played in the OG era. Kagero and DI as my main decks. I'd like to get back into it but it feels like the game plays so differently now.
It's definitely faster than og era but that's mostly just because of more effects, the gameplay still feels great if you ever decide to give it a try

I nearly broke when I heard the starter decks were $50 each. I didn't think there could be a card game more expensive than Magic.

pour one out for G era, killed by Shiranui
Hyped for shiranui in D 💯
It was pretty evenly split between shiranui, ange and ztb
Vanguard is a good side tcg. Just I don't recommend you to push high level play in it. Unless you want to have luck determined your games 70% of the time.
I mean so long as you shuffle a deck the game is luck determined lol
Considering there are players who top consistently, the luck factor you’re saying exists is exaggerated.
I’ve loved vanguard for 10 or so years, but unfortunately have never lived near a shop the supports the game. So, I am stuck playing card fight area.
I'm sorry to hear brother hopefully one day that changes for you🙏
im a old player that stopped during early grade 4 era. Now i have 0 idea tf is going on
the last time i play vanguard was, G deck. nad now we have V and D??
my friend...what vanguard game is that in 2:19 - 3:00? Is it available on pc and can it play online?
@reizal7200 its cardfight area, a free fan made online game for pc! Only downside is that it's manual so no effects or anything get done for you
@@sheriffvanguard6556 oouh does it have any update and what rules does it uses
If you dont mind, I'd like to share this in hopes of getting more traffic to my fav card game?
I'd be happy if you did! I made this video to get more traffic for vanguard and get people into it so feel free to
Just curious though where are you going to share it?
im left the game in og era played a bit of striding but like im just lost rn lmfao
i wonder where my deck stands because i put in 1 card that no one else would
need a vid on how to play
I'll see what I can do!
Ngl, I remember link joker in vanguard zero, NHL it was tempting to play it but I was loyal to kagero😭
I didn't actually know about the stand-up deck sets had I known about them before I probably would have bought the orfist and favernel ones instead of the messiah deckset although I do really like the messiahs
Do you know if my p deck set vge-dz-ps02 is still playable? I got it because it’s from my favorite clan the shadow paladins but then I found out there are only 5 nations now.
And I wanted to get back to the game so I got it. So I cannot play it then I got no choice but to get from either keter, dragon empire, etc?

Good video only held back from your mic. Please fix.
Yeah I agree it's on the to do list to replace it💀
so like...i can use my kagero pg in my dragon empire deck?
no since your dragon empire deck is for standard, which only uses D series/overdress era cards and none of the older ones
@@sheriffvanguard6556 thanx
So which of the 3ds/ switch games is the most modern one? That would be the easiest way for me to try the game out.
most recent is stride to victory which is JP only and has cards in the original era (so good card pool but will have some gameplay mechanics that are no longer really in standard)
@@sheriffvanguard6556 thanks i will look into it, maybe there is a english patch.
I feel like standard needs at least 60 cards to run. I'm a bav main and it's hard to be creative when there's only like 10 slots left, after inlcuding all the triggers, arms, rideline and perfect guards 😅😅
I know what you mean my orfist deck is so tight on space and I deck out most games I play baromagnes😅
I just want to play giant super robots in Standard without dealing with the rest of the V-era bs
Why must life be so cruel
Daikaiser my beloved...
I feel you friend😔 at least encounters may yet bring back your beloved one day
Is this game super competitive? Like I tried to play yugioh once but everyone at the card shop I went to was super mean and didn't want to teach me anything. Is it any different in the vanguard community?
Kinda depends, there's definitely people that play to win and build top tier decks to win but a big grab for vanguard is the neat decks so a lot of players stick to their favorites regardless of how good they are. Bc of that, my locals was super supportive and helped me make my first deck when i started out. And now we still do the same helping new players that are interested. To answer your question I want to say no its not SUPER competitive but again in depends on where you look
is there a way to play it online? I know that the mobile version got shut down a few months ago
So there's the official switch/pc game dear days thats online but costs money and there's the pc game cardfight area that's online and free but is much lower quality
Is vanguard dear days updated til the current standard set?
No it's a few sets behind, they've been making slow but somewhat consistent effort to update the game and add new sets though
Too bad I don’t know a store in LA that sells vanguard
Anime Jungle in Little Tokyo is a store that's also a Vanguard local
❤
"Luard is why V died" HAH. Did you even see gurguit?
Untap?
Also a good recommendation! Forgot about that until now sadly but thanks for bringing it up!
I haven’t watched it yet but the correct answer is : money.
The easiest way to get into standard is dont
Removing the clan system is so silly makes decks feel more generic
‘CFA, good manual experience’
Lol no
V era was really Vanguard's flop era.
Only way to get into the game is to shell out 150$ for gandeeva and hard win because it’s brain dead haha
Don't need a meta deck to get into the game, don't even need a good deck to get into the game and just enjoy it with friends
tbh, 10k triggers, ride deck, imaginary gift and overtriggers made the game impalatable to me.
5k triggers were fine, you just needed more defensive options. Also, stride was definetly ruining the game economy, but in the other hand, you had a huge diversity of extra deck builds.
And the power crept that Imaginary gifts made just make premium a fast forward format that they needed to errata old cards into super-duper-hyper-mega awesome versions for them to be used again.
Also, because current stadard has the ride deck and you're guaranteed to ride that card over having different strategies and they took out the most power crept mechanic ever made, imaginary gifts, most new bosses have little impact on premium while having the same build over and over in standard.
and tbf, Bushiroad never invested in the game like LSS does with FAB nor have a good eye for social formats like EDH ( mtg) or UPF (FAB), making the game even more monotuos.
Yeah, nah, I think I'll stick with Yu-Gi-Oh.
This game seems a bit too "Overdressed"
