My only issue with these types of Shanks builds is that they don’t have a way to deal with P Luffy’s board early. I would really try to tech a couple S Snakes for that matchup. They also combo great with 5c marco. I’m also a fun of Roo
Building snake with marco is an interesting idea! Someone else suggested jet pistols. Gonna get my purple Luffy paper deck built next week and start testing with the homies!
I don’t quite understand why all shanks decks prefer the Rayleigh over Newgate? Especially being their almost all teching into BB with these sticky bodies. Edward is an activate main so you can actively clear Laboons, DQs, Vascos?? I guess they’re keeping Rayleighs for the Doffy matchup? But even then I feel like Newgate being able to clear bodies every turn gains for sustainable value. Help me see the Rayleigh value
Setting aside BB first, Rayleigh hits 6k power whereas Newgate only hits 5k, which makes it far better into decks with lots of 6k guys like purple Luffy (kid,queen,zorojuro) and smoker/lucci (5c tashigi, 4c lucci, sabo after the effect wears off) It also combos way better with otama (8k vs 7k, letting you hit breakpoints like jack, luffytaro and opposing Rayleigh/newgate) Having the extra 2k power down as well can let you clear a second guy by battle more easily into matchups like Doflamingo/pluffy. Vs BB: neither are amazing, Newgate is definitely better but I’d rather be playing a sticky 5c into dragon in most situations anyway. 9k dragon swing is gonna clear the laboon/VA etc anyway and is a slightly bigger body to have down. I also think your BB matchup is reasonably good already with the sticky 5c and lots of top end rush options, as well as Roger forcing win in a lot of situations if you can find him
Love from Texas, been watching your vids 👍can't wait for shanks
Thanks for watching brother 👊 I’ve just put him together in paper, can’t wait to start playing him at locals!

Lucky roux can help alot
Gum gum jet pistol would like to test it for early play removal
Interesting thought! I’ll have to give it a go :)
How can u have alt arts in sim?
There’s a link to the alt art folder on maebatsu’s (sim dev) link tree 👊 you have to copy the images over 1 by 1 though it takes a while 😂
@ did it once and it was giving me white cardsbords but i guess i really needed to do 1by 1 lol
@ not sure what would cause that! Did you replace the full folder? Could be cards that didn’t have alts and lost their image somehow?
@ i think i justed dropped the aa folder to the cards folder
HONGO COMBOOOO
