Clash - The Best Flesh and Blood Format You've Never Played

  • Flesh and Blood can be on the more expensive side of things when it comes to competitive play, but that's where budget formats come in. And while Commoner is the officially supported budget format, I'd argue that it pales in comparison to the fanmade format: Clash.

    HELL yeah!!! Please get Clash as much attention as possible. If MTG can coopt EDH into Commander, LSS can do the same with Clash. It's *by far* the best new player experience possible.

    • @Sloopdoop
      @Sloopdoop  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      No clue if LSS will ever pick it up, but I've been having a ton of fun with the format! Also so easy to build decks, so I made 7 to share at the LGS to get people involved

    Clash is AMAZING! Honestly, with how close LSS ear is to the community I wouldn't be surprised if Clash becomes an official format with a year. It would also help new players Grow their collection while also helping them get an idea how FAB decks work beyond commoner. Gives them a road map of 'Commoner->Clash->Blitz->CC' in that they slowly build their collections over time.

    Great coverage of the Format! As a fan of the budget formats, Clash is definitely my go to pick. I love Commoner, but not being able to play hero mechanics due to restrictions is a little feels bad, so Clash definitely makes up for it. Great content as always, keep up the great work :D

    So I need your Vis list!
    And thanks for covering this! I'm the individual that Man Sant passed it off to and it has been so much fun! I literally have a suitcase that I bring to my LGS every week that has a Clash deck for every hero in it. While some of the decks can be expensive, most decks are actually $10-$30 (and much less if you get free bulk from players!)

    Its very possible LSS picks up clash to replace commoner if it gains traction. Just look at EDH turning into commander, now mtg is almost entirely based around it. (We dont need to go that far though)

  • @supermarioblacktiger
    @supermarioblacktiger 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I do have one thought about this format. When the Blitz sideboard was introduced everyone complained about Blitz becoming Mini CC. Clash appears to be a combination of CC and commoner. It is a mini commoner CC. Just without all the majetics and legendaries. It sort of feels like this format is more for introducing people into the CC format on a budget with "shorter" games. I say "shorter" because I've seen blitz games go longer than CC games. Nothing more fun than watching two oldhims go at each other in blitz....
    Of course, I could be wrong and this format could be something that can stand on its own and one day be adopted by LSS. Possibly making its way into a tournament scene. That'd be cool.

  • @DiceCommando
    @DiceCommando 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Can't wait to chat about this. IMHO commoner is a higher deckbuild skill, vs. clash being a hero choice/skill gap.

  • @sharlacher8
    @sharlacher8 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    This has more or less put a format to what we play within my local group. We play blitz but make it a point to not play with expensive cards, basically anything costing more than about 30 dollars per card currently. We use that price as a bit of an LL rotation in our own way, if it becomes meta enough that it costs more than $30 its a living legend card haha and it also encourages us to play different decks. No other restrictions though! I like how Clash can still keep a lot of the flavor of the heroes in tact.

    The only issue with Clash right now is that the ruleset has not been updated in several months.
    It still uses the Skirmish 7 experimental ruleset for Blitz, instead of new Blitz and it has 0 notes regarding Bright Lights (not that it needs any).

    As someone who *only* plays commoner - Clash might be cool, it might not (never played it), but its already insanely hard to find IRL commoner rounds as is and that is with LSS support. Finding people to regularly play clash with IRL seems not even worth the effort of building the deck. With a playerbase this small (especially outside of north america) introducing new formats is novel but ultimately very hard to grip people.
    About Clash: I personally like the hero specs exception the most for flavor reasons, but I can see how this could entirely wreck the balance of a format if for reasons undefined a hero gets 6 majestic specs while others are limited to rare-powerlvl cards. I also think commoner already suffers from the problem that despite it being imo the perfect entry point for new players there is a very small amount of entry level accessible content around it, with clash being even more rare of a topic.

  • @ghostPepperWonton
    @ghostPepperWonton 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I have long held that this should just be the deck building rules of Blitz. If Blitz is supposed to be a competitive-minded, budget-friendly, starter version of CC, then why do I need $250 to put up wins at my weekly FaB night? How do we make this happen? :P

    • @Sloopdoop
      @Sloopdoop  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think that Blitz is fine having access to all cards in the game, the format is still cheaper than CC. But Clash is a good option for those who aren't as involved in FaB as someone like myself

    Dromai is actually a strong commoner decks, without all those ridiculous dragons. I'd say the only hero that has issues without rares is Viserai without Mauvrion Skies. My personal opinion is that commoner is a drastically better format even before considering cost and simplification of what's legal to play. I do hope everyone enjoys any way to play though, FaB is just the best game.
