What to do with Gurguit Post-Choice Restriction
DISCLAIMER: This is the first time I'm writing a blog on the wikia post wikia changes so bare with me if I make any editing mistakes.
I'm sure everyone has already read and/or heard it by now. Gurguit got restricted, CHOICE restricted with Percival in Standard. Most people were expecting it to get a bump down eventually so it shouldn't have been that surprising. Nevertheless, Gurguit does get hurt by this. Let's be honest, while Gurguit can still do well without Percival, his long term play speed just took a big dive. There is a major vacuum there with Percival gone and it really does need to be filled up.
To the Japanese players, this shouldn't be a problem. They've played with Gurguit competitively for a long time and they probably won't m…

Off-Topic: Exarch's Obscure Romance Manga Recommendation of the Month 12
To start the new year and put an end to 2020, I thought it would be good to draw attention to this cute little fledgling romance series in the hopes of getting more readers!
Title: Konna Watashi ni Kitaishinai de
Author: Risumai

Status: Ongoing
Chapters: 5
Genres: Comedy, Romance, School Life, Slice of Life, Shounen
Summary:
Half-Russian Tachibana Elicia is well-known for being a cool beauty and an ice queen that the girls adore and the boys fawn over. She treats those who speak to her with cold indifference at best and an icy glare at worst. But in truth, this is a carefully crafted facade put on by the innocent girl, because that is what is expected of a beautiful half-foreign girl such as herself! In truth, her inner thoughts are mor…

Predictions: ZERO set 14
Plenty of YouTubers put out prediction videos detailing what they expect to happen next within a TCG... Well, I don't have a super fancy camera or video editing software, so I'll just roll with this.
ZERO set 14: Catastrophic Outbreak
Now comes the part where I have to explain why I arranged these as such.
Lock it in: When Sports analysts try to predict the outcome of a game, they may refer to a pick as a lock (particularly when choosing a heavy favorite over an underdog). Well, I decided a good Vanguard pun is well deserved here. This category is where I put the dead obvious choices: Tetra-Drive, Chaos Breaker, Reverse Daiyusha, and Ramiel Reverse. Additionally, Daikaiser would be in this spot, and I fully expect Colony Maker to get a RRR pr…
BEST FOILED CARD
It's been a long time and I haven't came across with this certain topic, but I want to know which VG card has the best foiling. (At least a top five I guess?)
Dauntless the Enigma
I need feedback on this list, I've played Dauntless extensively but I don't feel 100% confident in what I have so far.
conroe x1
Draw x8 (4 are pg)
crit x4
heal x4
Lava Flow x4
Aermo x4
Heat Shot x4
Sabel x1
Striken x4
Torridcannon x4
Berserk x4
Dauntless x4
Waterfall x4
tbh nothing works with Dauntless better than Dauntless, maybe it would be better to run 4 grade 3s and instead play tactics of strong-arming to get more early pressure or halo of bonds to make getting Dauntless easier. I could almost see Elixir working if you went for force 2 or were pushing for final damage.
all of this is moot if we get another grade 3 in the special set
though...
