A Closer Look at Reiju in OP08 (@ikailakai)
Reiju is a deck that feels like she should be good, but couldn’t quite become meta. When the bans were announced, some thought that this deck would be tier 0. I believe that this is largely due to the fact that Reiju as a deck has always been that 1 step away from being meta in Japan in OP08, g...

Intro (@Cross_Aii)
Earlier this week RP Law leader & Lucci’s Ennies Lobby had OFFICIALLY been banned. Only two cards were hit, yet these changes seem to have a HUGE impact on the meta.
My quick summary of the change in the meta is that the fall-off of RP Law, ...

OP07 Moria Theory - The Possibility of Removal Moria
Intro (@Cross_Aii)
Similar to the last set, the Morias of this set seem to be split on whether to run removal cards like Ice Age or not.

Intro
We finally made some progress with Perona. I know Kai has been preaching for Perona for a minute now, and I DO believe the deck is strong. But I don’t believe the current Perona lists are capable of beating GOOD Lucci & Perona players. 2024-08-05 12:08:17 +0000 UTC View Post

Against Whitebeard you want to focus more on defense than offense. Thanks to Moria & 3 Cost Brooks, it's very easy to COMPLETELY control the opponent's board.
