There was a first turn win available in the L5R CCG during the Clan War Arc, but it had to be incredibly specific in order to do it. First play Lion (first player), then when revealing Dynasty Cards, reveal Evil Feeds Upon Itself, Doom of Fu Leng, Desperate Measures and Unxepected Allies (getting a Tactician with at least 6 force). Fate wise you need Focus (Tactian keyword), Strength of Purity (if personality had 3 personal honor) or Charge! (2 or 3 of either). Crab could get province strength up to 10.
1:55 You have given me what I was searching for....! You start out with the Holding. The Card gives you resources and fixes alot of the issues other Cardgames have! Those heavily invested other Card game players....limited minds...not open for the fun. Man the Follower mechanic is so cool. I was wondering how and what it is...and now it makes sense that its troops folling the champion. How cool is that! They really thought this through...and fixed alot of the problems MTG had.
Great video - I love to see people appreciating the old game. I am working on an L5R CCG revival with a few of my friends, and the format we're focusing on first is "Original Border" format (which is exactly what it sounds like and spans from 1995 to early 1999). Let me know if you'd ever like to join us online for a game or two.
I'd love to buy some Gold Edition decks and boosters... any idea where could I still find those for sale, please? Doesn't need to be sealed, only mint, in the case of the decks. Thank you very much.
yes i also have this in like 6 different clans, and also are not interested in the new l5r, its pearl edition and the game is not dead you just need to find some who also plays it, with the old or new cards

Happy days. I like the old l5r rules still.

Pick me
Hit a Kolat up when you are ready to play.
The stories behind the game were excellent as well. I read them on occasion to this day.
Each new rulebook had a new short story....
I loved this game so much .
7:15 Thank you!
Do you know of an old school L5R community that still plays the old CCG?
There many of us on Reddit at r/L5R
@@ookamiprime6646 Ah thx. I also found some people on a L5R discord channel.
Looking forward to seeing more videos of this amazing game, thank you!

Try eBay: Gold Edition is easier to find that one may think.
I started in Diamond Edition, left in 2012; old5R was absolutely amazing.
Starting in Diamond? every edition after must have felt like a power-up!

What is going on with the crazy jumpcuts?
