Deck Analytics Part 1

This is the first and hopefully one of the many deck analysis that I would put up. I am not at all a pro, so take my comments with a grain of salt and a large dose of your own opinion. If you have any views or opinions, please post them in the comment section! Thanks!

This is the Decklist that had won the Vanguard Fight Championship 2012 Seniors in Japan. I am Going to attempt to analyze the deck, so that we would be able to gain more insights into deck construction. Of course what I think may not actually be correct, if you have other perspective or noticed any errors, please comment below so that I can add in or make any changes. The purpose of this deck analysis is not to encourage netdecking, I still think that you should construct your deck according to your playstyle. However, by taking a look at other decks, we hope to gain insights which allow us to create our own personal decks better. :)

Now, general deck idea would seem to be a beatdown deck. With 12 criticals, the deck tries to create columns that hit the magic number to pressure your opponent. With the 12 critical triggers, your opponents will be forced into more pressure.

So let's Start with the Grade 3s.

4 Alfreds and 3 Palomides. Palomides is straight forward beatdown. Together with the Marrons and Toypugals, you will have your 21k and 22k columns to force your opponents into a 15k guards if their vanguard is 10k/11k. Alfred with a full field will be 20k, meeting the min of a magic number, with 4 rearguards, 18k, meeting the magic number for crossrides. You are also able to use his counterblast to finish making your ideal field.

About the Grade 2s.

Now the first thing you may notice is the 5 10k vanilla. Now, currently the 10k vanillas may not be as useful in our english meta as the Japanese, as we do not have any crossrides yet. The 10k Vanillas, together with Marrons and Toypugals will meet 18k, the first magic numbers for crossrides. With the rampant running of DOTE in the Japanese meta, this is actually quite important. They can also be used to intercept, which frees the space for your palomides to come in. 4 Blaster blades, almost a card staple in a Royal Paladin deck, although not always at 4, allows you to retire any irritating rearguard that your opponent may call into the field(since using only 2 cb, will allow you to use your alfred's cb). Also, with Iseult, will hit 15k, with Liens, toypugals and Marrons will hit at least 16k. The 2 Akane will allow you to fetch out the toypugals which you may need to complete your columns, intercepting after that. However, with Lien will reach 15k and at least 16k with Toypugals and Marrons.

About the Grade 1s.

4 Iseults, Staples, almost every deck in the Japanese meta will contain 4 perfect guards to guard against crossrides and other big hitters. Marrons and Toypugals, will complete your 21k columns together with Palomides. They will also allow you to hit 16k with Blaster blade, Akane and 16k with the 10k Vanilla. The 3 Lien other than making 16k Columns will allow you to cycle cards you do not need, such as Alfreds when you have already ridden one. Since Alfred cannot be boosted, Lien will most probably go under your Vanguard so that you can still use its ability with Alfred as your vanguard since it can't be boosted. Making use of all the cards in your field.

About the Grade 0s.

12 Crit triggers, maximum pressure to your opponent. 4 Heal Triggers, Self explanatory, almost in every deck. Wingal Brave, with Barcgal being banned as Starting Vanguard, just the next better alternative since Drangal is only useful in a Galahad Deck, Bluegal in a High Beast Deck. Wingal Brave allows you to get another Blaster blade if it boosts a Blaster Blade, Since you have 4, it's quite likely.

Imagine! (Perfect field)

The perfect field will most likely be Alfred as your vanguard with Lien behind it. One or two columns of Palomides and Toypugals/Marrons to finish your opponent. Else one column is Blasterblade with the Grade 1 boosters to reach 16k.

Conclusion

This deck is fast, easy to complete your perfect field, straightforward and hits hard. With Alfred, Akane and Lien, they allow you to get the cards that you want to complete the perfect field for you to end the game. 12 Crits puts maximum pressure on your opponent. A lean and mean machine this deck is. As this deck do not have any Draw triggers, you may not be able to gain as much card advantage, however, Alfred, Akane and even Blasterblade would be able to help you with that problem.

You should also mention that Wingal Brave can boost Palomides to hit the magic 18K when facing crossride units.

This is one of my first Deck construction Articles, so bear with me. This is not a perfect deck and I am not a Pro, just some idea that I throw around. So if you have any useful tips or think that I am wrong, please comment below. :)

This is one of my first few deck that I am quite happy with. Great if you wish to play a Budget deck since cards of the Granblue clan are not very expensive.

Imagine! (Perfect Field)

I'll start with the perfect field. Cocytus boosted with Dragon spirit double critting your opponent's vanguard for the win!!

The side columns can be just a Ruin Shade, Blueblood, Thanatos or Any grade 2 with a 8k booster. Best would be Skull Dragon with Romario for a 21k Column.

The idea of the deck, is to delay your opponent for as long as possible to enable your Cocytus Vanguard to Crit your opponent. Since Cocytus boosted by Dragon Spirit, when soul blasted, will reach 26k after limit break, your opponent will either have to perfect guard it or let it through. The rest of the deck should try to delay your opponent as long as possible through super intercepting or by killing their rearguards.

Grade 3s

4 Cocytus, the main player in this deck. Allows you to reach 26k after limit break and boosted by dragon spirit, or 21k without either limit break or Dragon spirit. The second ability allows you to revive any unit from your discard pile, be it getting a dragon spirit behind it or getting thanatos or your grade 2s to your field. You can ride another Cocytus over your Cocytus to use its ability again. Thanatos will create maxmum pressure on your opponent as they will most likely want to block it. It will also distract your opponent from attacking your Vanguard so that you will have more chance to attack him. Dragon Skull, only 1 as you can revive it or search it our with nightkid. Will reach 21k with romario boosting behind it.

Grade 2s

4 Ruin Shades, Use these to attack your opponent's Rearguard, since after using its ability will push it to 11k and allow you to fill your discard pile for revival. Blueblood Commodore is used to attack your opponents' rearguards and pietro is used to unflip damage used for your counterblasts since the deck is quite counterblast heavy.

Grade 1s.

4 Dragon Spirits, these will go behind Cocytus to boost it to 26k. You may reduce it to 3 if you find that you can do without the extra 1. 3 Gust Jinn, perfect Guards, Staples. Samurai Spirits and Romarios, used to boost your Rearguards to reach 16k magic number. Samurai Spirits allow you to adjust your field and bring it back. Romario also goes with Skull Dragon to reach 21k. 2 King Seahorses, to allow you to cycle cards in your hand that you do not need. It can go behind your vanguard in the beginning or if you cannot get your Dragon spirit to reach 16k/21k. If you find that you do not make use of it often enough, change it out for more of the other grade 1s or an additional Blueblood.

Grade 0s.

12 Crit Triggers to pressure your opponent. Also to allow you to crit your opponent to death using your vanguard. Rough Sea Banshee also allows you to feed your Dragonspirit by sould charging it if you can afford the lost in defense. 4 Heal Triggers, Staple in any deck. Skeleton Assault Troops Captain as Starter, I actually prefer this as my Starter as it allows me to look for Cocytus and provides consistency, however some may prefer Captain Nightkid as the starter for the tool boxing ability.

The Deck

Try to Delay your opponent for as long as possible so that your Cocytus have more chance to hit your opponent's Vanguard. This deck is quite against rush deck as it needs time to set up. Another thing is that you need the discipline to attack your opponent's rearguards to reduce their hand size and slow them down. Sometimes even using your vanguard to do that.

I hope that you enjoyed this article and that you would gain something from it! :)

Keep Cardfighting!

Attack!!

Sequence of attack.

So how do we choose which of our units to attack? When do we attack? Does it make a difference? I'll be discussing these problems in this article. So, how do we decide which of our units to attack first? There are basically 3 ways of attacking if you have a full field. Attacking with the vanguard first, then the remaining 2 rearguards, attacking with one rearguard, followed by the vanguard and then the last rearguard and finally attacking with both rearguard then the vanguard.

Attacking with the vanguard followed by rearguards

Now this attacking sequence is normally used if you have no stand triggers in your deck, mostly critical triggers. By attacking with the vanguard first, if it is guarded completely by your opponent, using high guard units or a perfect guard, you would be able to place the effects of the triggers you drew to your rearguard, not wasting them. If you had attacked with both your rearguards, the triggers will be wasted as no other units can make use of them.

Attacking with one rearguard then vanguard, lastly with the second rearguard

This attacking sequence will normally be used by decks that have both stand and critical triggers. By attacking with one rearguard first, you can be sure that if you drive check a stand trigger, you would be able to stand one of your rearguards. This attack sequence also allows you to place a critical trigger onto the remaining rearguard if your vanguard's attack is guarded. Normally I would attack with a high unboosted power rearguard first as when I drive check a stand trigger, it would still have enough power to attack the opponent's vanguard with a unit boosting it. If you would have a low power column and a high power column, you would attack with the low power column first, otherwise, if your opponent damage checks a trigger your low power column will not be able to attack.

Attacking with both rearguards and then the vanguard

This attacking sequence is usually used if you use a lot of stand triggers. However do note that even if you have a lot of stand triggers in your deck, it is still not very encouraged to use this attack sequence. By attacking with both rearguards first, you are sure that you will be able to make use of both stand triggers if you are able to drive check them, however, this possibility is actually quite small. If you attack with both rearguards and your vanguard is guarded while you drive check a heal trigger, the 5k boost will be wasted since you can't place it anywhere else. I would still recommend using the second attack sequence, but maybe you could attack with a full column, an attacking rearguard with a boosting unit so if you really drive check 2 stands, you would still be able to stand 2 units. This attack sequence and the first attack sequence is also useful if you wish to remove your opponent's grade two to prevent them from intercepting. This attack sequence will be mainly used by Aqua Force when they are out.

When to attack

So when do we start attacking your opponents. It is normally a good idea to attack with your vanguard for its drive checks as it will help increase your hand size even if the attack is pointless. However, there are instances where this is not a very good idea. In the first turn, if your opponent needs a damage for counterblast, it may be better to lose the card advantage and not attack, foiling your opponent's plans. One example is if your opponent have barcgal, by not allow him a counterblast, he would not be able to use the barcgal superior ride into blasterblade. This, of course you have to decide if by not allowing him to counterblast, is the advantage more than an additional card in your hand and one point of damage to him. Always remember that if your opponents have 4 damage, he would be able to activate limit breaks and at 5, he would have the chance to megablast. Also the number of unflipped damage he have left would also justify if you should attack his vanguard or his rearguard to prevent him from counterblasting. These are all factor you could consider when you are deciding if you should attack your opponent's vanguard or rearguards.

Sometimes at late game, if you think you cannot deal the last damage to your opponent, it may be better to just attack his rearguards to slow him down and continue the assault the next turn. I had once read an article for magic the gathering that mentions, the first 19 life is unimportant, only the last 20th point of damage will decide if you win or lose. I feel that in cardfight! Vanguard, the first 4/5 damage is not important(although at 4 damage there is the fear that your opponent may critical trigger you thus ending the game), only the last damage will determine if you win or lose the game. If you attack randomly, you may have just given your opponent the advantage instead!!! So play more, hone your abilities and find out the various circumstances on when is it better to attack the vanguard and when is it better to attack the rearguards.

Keep cardfighting!!

Basic Playing Tips...

This time, I'm going to talk about some basic tips and tricks for playing cardfight vanguard. As always, these are just simple tips that may help players who are just beginning, these are not advance game play methods, so most of them should be what good players would had already know.

Watch the vanguard anime

Watch the anime? Although some of you may not like the cardfight! Vanguard anime, there are some basic tips and tricks in it, as it is suppose to mirror real life gameplay. Be it general or clan specific. So it's nice to watch it once in a while, you'll be able to pick up some techniques from it.

Have at least 1 of each grade 1-3 in your starting hand.

As I had mentioned in the mulligan article, try to have at least a grade 1, 2, 3 each in your hand. This is so you would not misride and you would have a grade 3 vanguard on your 3rd turn.

Order of attack

Think about the order of your attack. In a deck where trigger is balanced, the normal order of attack if full field would be first rearguard, then vanguard, ending with the other rearguard. This is so that you would be able to make use of any of your triggers when you drive check them. I may elaborate this in the future.

Know the abilities of your cards

Since you are just getting into the game, you don't have to know the abilities of all the cards in cardfight vanguard, however, it's good to know the abilities of your cards so that you will not forget to use them when you need them. After playing a lot, you will be able to know more and more abilities of the other cards in cardfight vanguard.

Do not overextend

Do not overextend and flood your field with all the cards you have while leaving none in your hand. Although this would add pressure to your opponent, it would also allow him to get rid of your cards easier, and since you do not have any cards left, you will be defenseless. Try not to call grade 0s unless you really need to because it would be better to use them to guard.

Do not guard every attack

Just like you shouldn't place every card you have into your field, you should not guard every attack. Taking some damage early on may actually be beneficial as you would be able to use them for counterblasts and limit breaks. Considering when to take the damage and when to guard is very important over the whole course of the game.

Remember the magic numbers

Try to arrange your rearguards such that they will be able to reach the magic numbers of your opponent's vanguard to make your attacks more efficient. When placing your rearguards, keep in mind the various position and think ahead the position of the rearguards that you are going to put in the future. Which rearguards will go with which to create the most effective column.

Keep the pressure on your opponent

If you are able to keep the pressure on your opponent you will be able to control the flow of the battle.

and most of all... Have Fun!!

The whole point to playing the game is to have FUN! Right!?

do share if you have more tips for playing vanguard!

The Magic Numbers...

So the previous time I had talked about Imagine!, the perfect field. Now I'm going to talk about magic numbers. You may be thinking what are magic numbers and why do we need to consider them during deck construction. Well, magic numbers are numbers that would make your deck  more efficient, it would also allow you to decide between some cards to put into your deck that would provide the maximum pressure.

Now what are the magic numbers? The main magic numbers would be 11000, 16000, 21000 and 26000. The secondary numbers will be 10000, 15000, 20000 and 25000. Notice anything? The main numbers start from 11000 with 5000 increments, while the secondary starts with 10000 with 5000 increments. In the future, the magic numbers may include 13000 with 5000 increments. So why are these numbers important? It's because they allow you to hit your opponent's vanguard more effectively.

A typical grade 3 vanguard you will encounter, which will be most of the time since your opponent should ride a new one almost every turn, will have a strength of 10000 or 11000. So if your attacking units hit 10000, your opponent if he doesn't want to take damage will be required to block with at least a 5000 shield unit. So now if you reach 15000, he will be forced to use a 10k guard, and at 20k, he will need a 15k guard. So this means, you are just hitting the minimum amount to make your opponent discard more cards, very soon, your opponent will be having lesser cards in his hand, giving you greater card advantage. The same is true for the 11ks and 13ks for the respective vanguards.

So now how does this translate into insights for deck building. Now that you have selected some cards based on how you are going to win, you need more cards for support and how do you choose them? Fr example, the grade 2 that you have chosen is a 8k unit, so it would be better to choose a grade 1 that is 8k to hit 16k... A 10k booster will not be efficient as you would hit 18k, the extra 2k will be wasted, since the opponent will have to use a 10k anyway. For a 12k attacker, a booster that can reach 9k will be best to reach 21k. It is always good to keep the magic numbers in mind when selecting cards for your deck since cards with better effects will have lower attack power, do you choose a 8k vanilla unit or a 6k unit with a nice effect? It depends on the rest of your cards, whether you need the extra power to hit the magic numbers.

The main magic numbers are the 11k sets as those are the more common higher attacking units, this is why 11k units are so great, not only because of their great offense, but rather their great defense as your opponent will have a harder time reaching your magic numbers. Allowing you to conserve more cards in your hand.

So by keeping the magic numbers in mind while constructing your deck, you would be able to create a more efficient attacking column, thus creating a stronger deck. It will dictate where you are going to call your rearguards to allow the columns to hit the magic numbers. So who says that cardfight! Vanguard is just a luck game?

Do try out and continue tweaking your decks, and keep cardfighting!!!

Black Tortoise...

This is our first guest article written by one of our players!

He wish to announce to the world the power of the black tortoise... enjoy!

Black Tortoise

From the ashes of Nova Grappler rises the Black Tortoise once more! This deck used to terrorise

many players, ending matches before they had a full field… For if they did… They lost the next turn…

Today, we will be reviewing one of the more powerful decks available for English players. The Black

Tortoise deck.( Okay, some people probably call it the Azure Dragon/Asura Kaiser build or even the

Divine Beast deck) This deck is rather cost-efficient on both your wallet and on counterblasts. It

boasts excellent defence, high powered attackers, decent speed and is rather easy to understand

and to use.

Here’s a sample decklist for everyone to see.

Sample decklist

FV- Divine Beast, White Tiger

Trigger setup- 6crit, 6 stand, 4 heal.

Grade 1

Tough Boy X4

Twin Blader X4

Announcer Shout X2

Claydoll Mechanic X4

Brutal Jack X4

King of Sword X3

Deck breakdown

White Tiger

It’s the perfect starter or this type of Divine Beast deck. With the ability to re-stand your fishing

companion, Black Tortoise, or even the whacker, Azure Dragon, this card proves to be very versatile

in this deck, which causes headaches for the opponent when it comes to guarding choices.

Tough Boy

Black Tortoise’s man-at-arms, perfectly suited to boost Black Tortoise to a respectable 16K attacking

force. This forces a larger guard from the opponent to prevent you from over-fishing. One of the

best hand-burners in this deck, especially in the early game when boosting Black Tortoise.

Announcer Shout/ Claydoll Mechanic

Nothing to see here. If only there were more 8K boosters.

Twin Blader

The pikemen of the Divine Beast Corps. This bad boy keeps the opponent at bay, until you get the

fatter 10K guards to buffer the attacks. Due to zero draw triggers, your hand may be a tad small,

which is where this card comes in. This card can ditch the spare Grade 3s in hand as well, or you may

have a lot more Grade 3s than needed, due to the fishing skills of the Black Tortoise.

Divine Beast, Black Tortoise

The namesake of this deck. With its monstrous searching ability, as well as excellent synergy with

White Tiger as well as the boosts which enable it to hit at least 15K, this Tortoise ain’t your regular

tortoise. This card is a “Hand Burner”, as it forces your opponent to guard, to prevent you from

pulling out a Grade 3 and setting up your triggers at the bottom. This is the best vanguard you

could have as a Grade 2, as many opponents will not guard against his attacks, leading to a fishing

party. With the multiple stand triggers, it is likely that this tortoise can attack more than once as a

rearguard as well.

Brutal Jack

The frontline infantry of the Divine Beast Corps. This 11K monster is especially good as target of

stand triggers, being able to solo all units, save a post-megablast Agravain. This power comes at a

cost however. A tiny cost of one counterblast. Which this deck does not use at all. Can be used until

you get another Grade 3 to use, without the payments, but with better perks.

King of Sword

Nothing to say. Your standard conscript, I suppose.

Grade 3

Asura Kaiser

The head honcho of the gang. With its excellent skill to restand your powerful rearguards, just by

checking a Grade 3. This places more pressure especially in the late game, where more attacks can

end the match slightly more effectively than critical triggers.

Divine Beast, Azure Dragon

The reinforcements of the army. These fellas take over the work of Brutal Jack as 11K whackers. It

is better than Jack due to good synergy with the stars of the show : Black Tortoise and White Tiger.

Enough said.

Ratings (From A to D, where D is the worst possible score.)

Cost friendly : B

Power output: A

Speed : C+

“Fishing” skills: B+

Defence: A

Consistency: C

This deck can be considered cheap as it has 12 foils, all of which can be bought at prices below $15,

probably. For starters, I know that the Kaiser and Dragon can be bought for around $10 from people

who do not play Nova Grappler, whilst Twin Blader at most only costs around $15. We have all the

necessary singles as well. Feel free to check our “singles” section.

Now, on to the power output. In short… This deck is over powered. Literally. This deck easily hits

those crazy high numbers like 17, 18, 19K. But how much does it take to guard them?... 10 K even if

you had attacked with 15K. But numbers like 17, 18 and 19 are useful still. These power levels can

force 10K shields out of 13 K vanguards quite easily, something the English version hasn’t managed

to do well yet, due to the lack of cards like Palomedes, the knights of friendship, nullity and loyalty

as well as Burning Horn Dragon. So, although this extra power may seem like a novelty now, it is

actually of use next year when the 13K monsters get unleashed!

Speed is a minor issue for this deck. This deck only has moderate speed, period. With zero draw

triggers, your only chances to pull fighters and boosters are from your drive checks and draws.

That would be a problem except… ALL YOUR BLEEDING CARDS ARE 10K MONSTROSITIES AND 7K

BOOSTERS!! So, done and done.

Fishing time. Black Tortoise is using a super rod from pokemon. And there are four of them. They

may fish more than once in a turn. Go figure.

Defence is a strong point of this deck. With 8 11K vanguards and no way to go, you’re definitely a

11K at Grade 3. And 11Ks are excellent tanks. Plus your frontliners are most likely 11K tanks too. If

that’s not enough defence for you, I can only refer you to the Knight of Fury, Agravain, which MIGHT

get 15K defence.

Due to the unpredictable fishing ability of Black Tortoise, no two games are ever the same. Do I need

say more…

Black Tortoise is so awesome. It deserves a good theme song. One that makes little children run to

their mommies. Something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLI3fSgccZU

No. Seriously. If anyone gets an inspiration to write a Black Tortoise epic. Go ahead.

Obviously I’m not going to teach you how to use the deck, but rather point out the excellent synergy

this deck has. Every card has a purpose. Every card is precious. There are no weak or strong cards.

Any card can become strong with the right support. Disregard my learned colleague’s statement in

the article” Protection”. Every card should be loved and cherished.

So are you caught up in the tortoise fever yet? What are you waiting for!?!?!

Imagine!!!

Now that you had learned about some basic deck building tips, and hopefully played a few games, the deck that you had made would be playable. However against better players you may not win as often. So today I'm going to talk about a concept that you can use during your deck construction, Imagine! or as some other people say, the wining field.

Now as you may have notice, a game of cardfight! vanguard is very fast paced, the early game and mid games is in the first few rounds of the game, and then you reach the endgame(sometimes you may not even reach it), where everyone have a number of rearguards with a grade 3 vanguard. The end game would proceed from there on. So now, about Imagine!, which was used by Kai in the anime, is to imagine how are you going to win the game. So how is this related to your deck? By knowing how you are going to win a game, you would know the cards that you would be using, and the cards that will help you create the possibility of that endgame scenario. Thus most of the cards that should be in your deck, the backbone of the deck, would be selected. The rest of your deck, you would use to support the endgame or try to bring about that specific scenario.

An example would be my granblue deck, which I may talk about in the future, has the imagine! Scenario that uses cocytus, necromancer of the icy prison boosted by dragon spirit to reach 26k after limit break as a vanguard and aiming to crit the opponent for victory. So cocytus and dragon spirit will most likely be placed in my deck, along with 12 critical triggers. The rest of the cards will either help me slow the opponent down, increasing my defense, so that cocytus will be able to attack more times, thus activating that critical triggers, or help me get cocytus out as vanguard.

So as you can see, through using Imagine! You would most likely construct your deck from the top down, selecting the particular grade 3s you wish to use in the endgame, then selecting the supporting grade 2s, followed by the grade 1s. The triggers that you select, although may be affected by the type of deck that you play, would also depend on your play style. Of course you may also have a backup plan, which is always a good idea in case you are unable to create the main winning field, to fall upon, thus deciding the selection of more cards into your deck.

So what do you do after selecting the cards for your deck? Play test them! Play test to see if your endgame is easily achievable and able to bring you victory, if not tweak your deck to make it more efficient in creating the endgame field that you want and to make a stronger endgame field.

So now that you had learned about Imagine!, your deck your be stronger and you would be less likely to lose, next up I will discuss about another thing to consider during deck construction, the magic numbers!
