This is top tier content, I've actually regressed and got worse at the game recently as I've not been able to play much at all the last couple of months, this kind of content is such a good refresher. keep going <3

Loved the video! I don’t know if you already planned to talk about this topic, but one thing I‘d like to improve at is playing defensively. More specifically, finding the right time to play blockers and using them effectively to buy me some time

This is some of the most valuable content about this game I have seen

OPTCG needs more content creators like you 😊

[MrMosebey]

Love this content. Theres a solid void for optcg lessons and guides to help people improve imo so would love to see more

[ConleyPMusic]

Awesome, awesome guide man. This reminds me a lot of what I had to learn to play Pokemon VGC, which is very much a Chess game. Appreciate you for breaking this all down.

[djluckycharmz]

A great way to explain it. There’s been a bunch of videos for the curve explanation but this one clicked for me

[zelohyuung]

Great video! Just picked up the game over the weekend and went to a tournament for fun and wow, so much I have to learn! Hope to see more from you

[ShootFoDaZe]

Amazing video! This is the type of analysis that I look forward to every time I see you upload!

I totally agree with the concept of the video and this applies to all card games really! Specifically looking at the example between enel and saka, I would think that if you know your opponent would play Hina into 7c borsa, you’d be fine taking both a lucci and leader hit so you’re at 1 life at the end of the sequence with your leader effect. You would then leader+don into Lucci for 6 and if they block with a 2k they now have 3 cards in hand (1 card less to deal with the Yamato or best case they let it through) and then you play Yamato to pop the Hina + heal.
That leaves you with Yamato and 2 life and your opponent with 3 cards in hand and 7c borsa and lucci. Objectively, is this a worse play? Because you didn’t block the previous turn you’d have 9 cards in hand and would only need to block 1 of the two attacks from Lucci or Leader (assuming you’d take the Borsa hit) to live which would entail them using Don to win through 9 cards in hand. The following turn you can 8c kata if they don’t swing with borsa, but if they do (by trying to go for game) you can kill their board with Yama+leader and then pick off whatever they played with 8c kata.
Appreciate the video nonetheless!

[richardhamelin]

So nice ! Would be happy to play against you one day;)

[saberii]

Third! Will use this to win locals for sure!

[StrawHatAb]

Hey, great video! Quick question, for the kata play, how come you don't swing with leader into the Lucci first and then play out the kata? Just trying to understand sequencing. I always thought its most ideal to do your swings first then play out characters based on how opponent reacts - thoughts?

If you want to be a better player you should start by not showing your opponent your entire hand.
