YO THAT NEW REGION.

[NUKE9.13]

Oh gods, you're right. What a nightmare. Moreso for them given the number of cards they have that do nothing, but still. Blech.

[Failbird105]

You know what I'm thinking this calls for? Cards that do something just for being in your deck.

[NUKE9.13]

I have considered cards that say something like "You may start with this card in your opening hand", to improve consistency. Given the uni also allows unlimited stars-for-cards, things that use discarding as a cost would also work well.

Spoiler: Ideas, not this-turn proposals (click to show/hide)

*Card Name: Knowledge Elemental
*Card Picture:
*Background Color: Purple
Attack: 2
Hearts: 4
Stars: 1
Card Effect: Whenever you discard a card (from your hand), this card gains +1/+1 for each card discarded.
  You may choose to discard a card instead of attack with this card.
Flavor Text: Knowledge is power. No matter the source.
Metadata: A card that benefits greatly from other cards that discard, but has a way to trigger itself if no better means are available.
Reference:

*Card Name: Keeper of Secrets
*Card Picture:
*Background Color: Orange/Purple
Attack: 8
Hearts: 5
Stars: 1
Card Effect: At the start of your turn, discard a card. If you can't, this card is destroyed.
Flavor Text: He already knows them all, but wants to hear you say it.
Metadata: A demon, but instead of demanding payment in blood, it demands payment in secrets (cards).
Reference: The image is of N'kari, a greater daemon of Slaanesh (which are called Keepers of Secrets). But it isn't super relevant.

The Battle Phase is now beginning!

Refer to the second post of the Core Thread to see a list of regions and their effects. You now get to pick one as your preferred battlefield. Note that a region is not guaranteed to be a battlefield unless a player from both teams chooses it. If your region is not chosen you will instead play in a random one that was chosen by the opposing team. You will want to build your deck while considering the possibility that you might not fight on your favored terrain, such is the chaos of war!

As a reminder, you cannot pick a preferred region already picked by someone else on your team for this round.

You will also need to pick what cards you want to put in your 40 card deck!

... Yes, there has been quite a few nerfs. Trust me, the other team got nerfed too, and you'll be glad they did!

Star Wish Waifu X6
Pacifist Gunsligner Waifu X3
Unintentional Bombardment X6
Fog of War X6
Backfire X4
Cyberpunk Waifu X2
Refinery X6
Destructive Analysis X5
Mountain of Bodies X1
Isekai X1

I'm going for Space Station Theta! Does Cyberpunk Waifu count as a machine card?

[Failbird105]

While PGW is certainly better for Mountain building, I'm honestly probably gonna go minimal on copies of her from here on out in favor of Cyberpunk Waifu. She's nowhere near as strong, and still won't survive a direct strike from a Firebase or max-rolled Meteor Shower(at least, on her first turn in play), but she's, y'know, actually capable of functioning as a unit, rather than as a pure stat wall for the enemy to chew through which could have been better achieved with an actual wall.

Edit: felt like sharing this, a Google Sheets thing I made quite some time ago that I intended to use to do some concepting for CYOGTCG decks. I sorta started on it, but never really got all that far into the singular deck I began working on. Got really inspired by playing Slime Rancher 2 though so I started up a second concept deck.

Alright. I'm aiming for the Blazing Caldera, with the following decklist:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

TURN 3 DECK - Hi, I'm Not A Demon
6 Demon Footsoldier
4 Cyberpunk Waifu
2 Anglerfish Dragon
4 Star Wish Waifu
4 Enkaphalin Refinery
3 Deploy the Lifeboats
6 Fog of War
4 Backfire
4 Unintentional Bombardment
3 Organ Harvest

If I get in, then Demon Footsoldier will be great. However, since the other team is highly unlikely to attack zones they already control, there's a 50% chance I'll be fighting elsewhere. I think this decklist is functional in most zones, though. But if anyone has any suggestions for alterations, I'm all ears.

Speaking of which:

Destructive Analysis X5
Mountain of Bodies X1
Isekai X1

I don't think you need 5 Destructive Analysis. It appears to be only there to enable Mountain, but since it can't put the high-value cards in the bin, you won't want to use it until you've already had a few big cards die- in which case having 5 is excessive, you'd be likely to draw one if you only had 3-4, and drawing more than one is virtually useless (I guess you could grab Isekai if you have a bazillion stars already, but you're probably winning at that point regardless).
I also think that Cyberpunk Waifu is good enough to deserve more slots.

She's better for facepunching, which works well with Fog, Bombardment, and Isekai.

Aren't you supposed to be Mr.Consistency? The ability to pull any card you want is powerful on its own, and I have enough backfires that I can afford the cost. It is designed to work well with MoB and does a pretty good job of it, but it can also:

-Grab me Unintentional Bombardment whenever I need a board wipe
-Grab me Fog whenever I need to face punch, or summon+flip
-Grab me Cyberpunk Waifu when I have a hand full of Backfire and Fog
-Set up and grab me Isekai (if I do get my designated area then I have double star gen and thus can use it fairy easy)
-Give me a monster cardo when my hand is filled with spells

You can't just plug and chug for free MoB, but it is a really versatile card even when the discard is considered a drawback.

[notquitethere]

It's a good setup card, but if you take a turn where you are just drawing a card, then you're not playing a card, so it's pretty slow. Maybe it's worth it to set up the perfect combo.

[NUKE9.13]

If discarding was the only cost, I agree that it would do great stuff for consistency. But it also costs "playing a card", which is a high cost, only worth it for finding really impactful things. At least, that's my view.

[notquitethere]

I'm inclined to agree. I think as it stands, I think I would only have it in a banishment deck. If I need to draw specific card, I'll just stock more of it in the deck.

I’m so confident I choose Windy Plains Zone

Cyberpunk Vs Anglerfish, One has 2-Stars so way easier to play and scales naturally, is weak to their current cards to a 7-Damage roll Meteor and a blast from their Firebase?, two Storm Cells?, The innate scaling is probably extremely scary, you could Unintentional to clear the board and then pop a Cyberpunk next turn. Anglerfish could kill a Big Scary Ghost before they could react with Solo Star Power as well attacking immediately in the Shipyard. I feel like I should have a bunch of Demon Footsoldiers to defend the Refineries for Star Gain, but they have Storm Cell and what cards to cut?

[NUKE9.13]

6 Anglers seems really high, for such a high star cost. You really don't want to be stuck with several in hand early on.
