Thanks for these videos chaps. I've been trying to engage more with the competitive aspect of the game and one thing that i really need to do more is understand the meta more. Thanks for your constant quality videos.
11:56 Yeah the CSM list was me :) 11:14 Well, it only gets to pay 1 salvage if it reverses a 2 or higher, so it honestly doesn't come up that much, since a lot of the lv2+s you'll see are bigger than 11k (or can back up bigger) One funny case I encountered was tying the AYT pants lv3 combo with it, which also doesn't work because it's a lv0 on stage >.> But 4 or more EPs in general are quite nice, and even more so when you have something sitting on stage that can sac a character productively (so double EP is quite reasonable - so long as you actually have them in hand, which isn't too likely as a 2-of; it did happen a couple times, but I could certainly see running more of them if you want to play more into the heals) 11:20 I'd say the topend is fairly stock-heavy, honestly, since ideally you want to play the toast event and then attack with the combo first attack, which is already 9 stock, but yeah it absolutely still works with less stock 12:15 The combo swings for 2 by default because it sacs the cx, but you can bump that up to 3 with toast 12:21 The big caveat there is that the opp has to actually have 3 non-cxs in wr (which is the idea behind including the icytail, though I ended up not actually using that, for better or for worse)
Shana's anti-burn works against *character* AUTOs, so it won't help with Shot, anyway. In fact all anti-burn effects currently printed specific Character AUTOs.
I know it'll actually suck to deal with IRL, but i am psyched for shot CXs to matter in any way shape or form. i really like the use of actual shot in the previews so far, as well as the bar and pants CXs also being shots. super cool to see one of my favorite triggers actually become playable.
4:14 hmm, of the 3 decks that people are expecting to be the top 3, TSK has a pretty big board itself (that it gets essentially for free), SDS has some pretty good anti-board tools (cart titan and escanor bomb), and OVL is a bit of both
I cant help feeling like we're not seeing something with Nikke. It's just so obviously broken, and it isnt something like Sokka where it might have been unexpected. As it stands, I'm kind of hoping for preemptive EN nerfs. Otherwise I might take a break from Weiss when Nikke hits. I dont really want to play into a meta like that with an absurdly horny set too.
I think the top 16 being super diverse is a really nice thing. I hope it continues to be that way, even if the top top winds up being more expected. It helps the meta not feel stale when you can see more decks doing well
I can only speculate, but it's probably one of the licensers that complained. +points if it's Aniplex since Aniplex has a huge amount of IPs on Weiss and also has a competing Union Arena TCG and would hate for more people to play Weiss. Either way it sucks. So yeah, ima continue to use the sim as is.

Oh, shoot, you're right. I didn't even think about that. I guess Haruhi is the only true answer. - Colton

The PRs in Nikke seem to be all new-illustrations for R and RR. The prices won't be the problem... the combo will be.

Good catch, thank you. - Colton

Watch this goldbar deck suck and everyone forgets this was thought to be op in a year from now xD
Time to make a Weiss fanzine and throw in a cd-r with the sim burned on it in every copy, lol.
