The DivineZ era and my immediate reactions

Just as the title implies, I will be giving my immediate reactions on all the recent Vanguard news that just dropped about a few days ago.

Nostalgia Overload: Which Encounters do I want?

I've been on a big nostalgia trip recently and with the advent of Prisms, I've decided to do an ultimate compendium of the encounter units that I personally want in Standard. Just to preface this, as much as I love encounters (And I do, they've all been handled wonderfully compared to V) I do not want Standard to become the encounter format. There needs to be a fine line between the two.

Just a few rules before I begin as well. I will not include the more obscure boss units imaginable, so no demon world castle's, Galahad, Lena, Barbaros or anything from Tachikaze (The last one is a joke, put your pitch forks you two). Also, not every clan will be on this list. 

Also, I'll be keeping it at least semi-realistic with the choices (Goodbye Shizuku 😭). Lets begin.

Prisms are coming back (And why they mean the world to me)

Here comes a wave of positivity (With some negative moments) detailing why I'm so excited for the return of Prisms, why I'm also still a bit hesitant and most importantly, why I love Prisms as much as I do to the point of it pushing me to write a blog post about it.

Why V should be eradicated as a format!

Alright, as attention-grabbing and over-the-top as the title is, its exactly how I feel about the format now and I'll explain exactly, and with a moderate amount of detail (If it was an excessive amount, this blog would be far too long, and I want this post out before the 1-2 punch of Xenoblade Wave 4 and Tears of The Kingdom come out) as to why that is.

Finally some good food: My wishes for the next V/P Collection

 Next week is finally the time when we're -finally- getting information on the constantly teased next V/P set. As someone who doesn't like Standard, its been a long wait to finally see something for either of these formats and that time is now. 

I'll be listing out my hopes and wishes for what I want from this set (Or sets). Finally....some good fucking food.

Standard: Why this format is terrible (OT included)

Alright, lets get the beginning statement out of the way first, do I believe what the headline says even though it contradicts my previous post from well over a year ago? Yes. 100%. The current standard format is not only the most unfun of the three current formats by a wide margin, but, its also absolutely a mess of a format with a myriad of problems that I will attempt to explain below. And before anybody shoddily mentions, I have been playing (Before I outright quit) standard for well over a year and have been playing Vanguard since 2014, so I have many comparisons I can easily draw from.

(Future edit: -My- opinions have changed from what you're about to read a decent amount, but a good amount of points still stand)

Cardfight Overdress, Lyrical Monastario and how I'm invested in Vanguard again

Didn't think I'd be making another Vanguard blog post (Or blog post in general), however, here we are. So might as well begin in earnest.

Prisms: The lovely mirage is disappearing

With today's reveal of the returning Prism trio, and after combing through the deck, trying it out and discussing with a few others, I feel comfortable in posting why I dislike the cards shown and why I feel the Prisms I used to love have now fallen to the wayside. 

Just a note, I am mainly referring to the Premium format in this article as that's the format I mainly play.

My Big Problems with Bermuda Triangle

 Firstly, I am lazy and keep putting off writing about the new Granblue stuff, as well as the Bermuda reveals. Granblue (And Rose) is extremely entertaining and I'm very happy that Prisms (And Duo's) are returning, which, is something I'm glad I said before I start ripping through the clan in this blog post. 

Anyway, lets start.

The King of Pirates return!

Welcome back my groovy mates, it is I, Luffy, the pirate king, and this joke is becoming 100% stale. Know what isn't stale? The new Seven Seas support that was just announced, lets talk about a bit.

The Current Standings of "Things"

Hello, and welcome back to my personal blog that is filled to the brim with weekly, monthly and yearly posts!

Now, only one of the above is true, but regardless, I'm here to discuss my current standings and opinions of Vanguard and what I like and don't. So, without further ado, lets begin henceforth!

Update

Hey, guys and gals. Just a quick update for literally anybody who still keeps up with my blog. I've quit Vanguard, so don't expect anymore Vanguard posts from me here (As you can already witness), but I may configure this blog into more of an entertainment blog in the future.

If you're not interested in that, I suggest you stop stopping by, if you don't mind, then its something to look forward too. I haven't made up my mind yet, but if I do, expect something in the next month or so. Perhaps I'll do Nintendo Direct reviews, we shall see.

Anyway, have an awesome day.

Updates + Bermuda + Some Standard/Premium talk

Welcome back to my underwater dungeon my friends and fellow comrades. It is I, your king here and I've decided to scrounge up some updates to talk about as well as an early birthday present Bushiroad gave me a few days ago (I'm writing this on my actual birthday believe it or not)

Lets head right into it.

Standard VS Premium: My Collective (And most certainly Objective!!!!!!) Thoughts

So, its been about three months since my last blog post and just out of nowhere, my inner most conscious is reluctantly pushing me to write out a post detailing my own personal thoughts on both formats in their current state. (Aka, me shilling my opinion all over this baby, you have been warned)

So, while I still have the drive to post, lets get going...

Standard VS Premium: "The Path of Power Creep"

Hey yall, Brawlz here, and yeah, I promised to talk about the BT cards I missed, well, BT in general, but I really need to get this post off my chest. Though, there will be some BT discussion in this post, but not exactly in the way you think.

Anyway, today I'm gonna go over my thoughts, opinions and observations for Standard and Premium, how we ended up here and what I would've done differently. Not sure how long this post will be, but I hope you read to the end.

Vanguard Team League 2018: Stark Gate

Hey guys, what's up. I know I kinda stopped with the whole BT COTD round-up, and I do apologize for that, but I had other things going on IRL as well as school to worry about so I didn't have enough time to really sit down and review anymore cards. I may review the set soon though, so look forward to that.

Anyway, today, I want to talk about my experience at Team League this year, my first ever one. It happened in Toronto, on March 24th (Yeah, I know, this is late). So without further ado, lets get to it.

I don't actually remember who my teams mates fought, so I can't comment much on that, so please keep that in mind.

Now, lets get on with the first week's reveals.

CB07: MB Reveals (It Begins)

And just like the snowy, freezing weather up here in my home land of Canada, BT month always come back to bless (Or Haunt depending on who you ask) us. Except I love BT month (Screw the cold).

Anyways, lets start talking about the 3 cards featured in MB!!
