"too much cost" "you lose an attack" "it doesn't fill the needs of the deck"... Meanwhile, the Brandt archetype has a g3 that makes your oponent plus, a g2 that SB the starter (to prevent players to abuse looking the top too much, god forbid it) and... well... Brandt itself
Hydro Hurricane is useless in AqF. I don't hate it, but what were they thinking when they came up with the card? I'm honestly curious as to what their thought process was. I feel like Hydro Hurricane got a downgrade from its original version, which is pretty ridiculous when you think about how they've been trying to make unpopular cards get their time in the spotlight with the V series.
@@yoshuaho9030 It does remove cards, but it doesn't benefit the clan in any way. When you play AqF, you don't have the time to play control. You're trying to take the opponent down asap, since AqF doesn't have that much draw power. The second issue is that Hydro Hurricane needs to attack first for its second ability to activate. Algos and Tidal wants to you attack with vanguard second at least, and Blue Wings want your vanguard to attack last. Also, with Battle Siren, Parthenia, you can now also retire with Maelstrom builds without using Hydro Hurricane. It's on hit, but the pressure helps force your opponent to guard so you can win more quickly, or you retire one of their units. On regular Malstrom, Parthenia is even better, since your opponent is so preoccupied with guarding the 3rd and 4th attacks, which are usually hitting for big numbers. Even as a budget option, Hydro Hurricane is bad, since there is Navalgazer, a card that works with both Algos/Tidal and Blue Wings. It sucks, since I was really hoping that Hydro Hurricane would be cool, especially realizing the V series gave older cards a chance to become cooler than they were back in the original series.

An idiot sandwich.
That's why it's in the mention section and not on the actual list as yes the card has some potential but currently the clan has no actual way to capitalize on it hopefully with Astral Force this all will change
Ergodiel at best is a decent first ride for some early game control before riding into Metatron as before. The card would be better if there were more cards that activate from the player's damage zone and be worth enough for self minusing.
Yeah, I don't get why Scanning Operator couldn't just be move to soul to draw one. Also, glad that the Naru stride made the list. I picked it up just because but then I was like "...What do I actually want to remove for this? I can't think of any situation I'd want to Stride this..."
As soon as the video started, *like* Edit: like I told someone in another video, Infinidiety Cradle was a shitty garbage set. The only benefits were God Hand and Hanzo, just two cards and few of their supports but other than that fuck that set. Glad that I didn't invest in it. Edit2: The fact that Arc Saver is on this list, doesn't disappoint me in the slightest. Had Bushi not gave out that fucking ruling, it'd be terrific.
G4 Amaruda, if the act ability was not limited to how cards are in soul & auto was available during vanguard attack as well, would've made it so much better.
As both a Genesis and AnF player I think that Erg is nowhere in the same league as Astraios. Even without support she can bring the deck to hit pretty hard and I had quite a few fights where being forced into 2nd ride Metatron instead of an Erg actually killed my momentum. Surely she's not BT06 material but I really hope that Phant was an error they are correcting by banning and not through creep. Instead of her you could dishonorably mention basically every genesis card at RR level in BT07. For me another honourable is Full Moon Tsuku. The revamped ride chain is fun but fully committing to a deckout risk is not the playstyle I want for a deck manipulation clan
Scanning Operator has no point even in the current deck. The deck isn't combo heavy enough that it'd be willing to -1 for a filter and if you want a G1 that can refill the soul then just use Syringe Lesser, that card is a -1 too but it gives you a decent power gain for it.
I have found 1 use on fulgrate, which is if you get at least thunderstrike 7 on first stride but not gb3. It is prety niche and requires people to not know how to play against premium naru but at least its something.
Glory Maker is pretty good in premium. There's plenty of decks and people that run G1 PG's because if archetype or skill. Locking them out of their PG when staring down an 80-100k X-gallop with multiple crits and a restand is scary. Is it always useful? No. But I don't think it deserves a "Worst" spot.
yeah I really disappointing with Hydro Hurricane Dragon. it's doesn't work well with Blue Wing. I only run one copy of this shit in my blue wing deck during 2019. and I never this unit once
I started playing Vanguard since V series GBT deck was available. seeing EoS on this list made my day. truly the worst g3 in V series PM, even with Visible Songster I would win more games than him, and that's just sad considering how limited Songster is in Standard
I haven't seen Scanning Operator used in any builds of Angel Feather, so it's even worse than you describe. Erdogiel is actually a good card though, a lot of decks have moved away from counter blast resources from what I've seen so the 2cc isn't as good for them as having units on the field.
Yeah, I've used it a few times to some decent effect, but it's extremely rare you can use any of their abilities and two 15K swings usually aren't great.
the only grade 4's we got were in the premium collection and I already dit a Winners/ Lossers videos back when the set come out. as for normal G4 we only got like 4 of those and they fail in comparison with strides.
I mean its a free on hit call which can work wonders in the early game for rush or even in the late game to extend Agravains reach to more units. Also because it's an on-hit means if its one of the first attacks your opponent most likely will block for it so less time for a defensive trigger which is the clan/decks main weakness/problem. This card isn't one of the best far from it but same can be said regarding the worst cards. Its a usable card that can fit in some peoples playstyles.
@@VanguardInsider But doesn't your vanguard have to be a grade lower than your opponent to activate his skill, meaning its only useful if you are behind and missed a ride?

Ergodiel is the best counter charger royals could ask for. Also the number 1 killed my hopes for a interesting deck.
@José Carlos Silva He means as in Ergodie giving the opponent free Countercharges.
@José Carlos Silva Its a bad joke since the card benefits others more than it helps itself. Its just a worse retire.
Protect 2 isn't on the list. Not accurate.

Johnny Wu Thank You
I don't think it is that bad because it can help remove certain finishers or important cards on the enemies field like cards that have guars restrict

Johnny Wu It has some use in premium, but yeah, it’s definitely useless in standard.
@@--6560 I'm surprised it actually has uses in premium. I thought it'd be bad in premium too(just from assumption).

The similarity between No.1 worst card in 2017 & 2019
1. Grade 4
2. Are used by the MC.
3. Are used against the main boss of the seasons
I don't think Angel G3 VR should be up there. The card is one of the two cards that Angel player could do something with opponent's field.
That's why it's in the mention section and not on the actual list as yes the card has some potential but currently the clan has no actual way to capitalize on it hopefully with Astral Force this all will change

I really don't understand why they designed Fulgurate like a bad card for mid G Era in a broken premium collection lol
Glory maker is good if your enemy does not have draw pg
Very few decks don't run draw pgs.
Yeah, I don't get why Scanning Operator couldn't just be move to soul to draw one.
Also, glad that the Naru stride made the list. I picked it up just because but then I was like "...What do I actually want to remove for this? I can't think of any situation I'd want to Stride this..."
Collector's item! ... T-that is really not worth anything... ...you know what, nevermind... :-P
It’s actually fairly useful I’ve used it numerous times but a lot less than I’d hope for 😔
Glory maker has done wonders for me, mainly in premium, but in standard the moment I see a 12-crit deck I can secure a win with the card no issue
As soon as the video started, *like*

A blue wing g3 that said crits are also regarded as heal but there effect stays the same is what would have been good.

Tyler Lofback it is on the list because it is useless in standard
Imo hydro hurricane is ok in premium. I personally really hate it in casual.
Nothing for a liberator player like me will ever be worse than Escrad, the very idea of that card is heresy.
yeah I really disappointing with Hydro Hurricane Dragon. it's doesn't work well with Blue Wing. I only run one copy of this shit in my blue wing deck during 2019. and I never this unit once
End of stage isnt that bad anymore.
Silver thorn promo and eva helped a lot.
Card is great because of Trapezist + Artilleryman

where the fuck is gunwild wolf? that card is literally unplayable
funny enough It made a budget deck for spike be possible
@@VanguardInsider spike cards are dirt cheap, that card isn't budget. it's fucking horrible
Watching and hoping to see the new Mujinlord from Premium Collection for Nubatama. Its garbage
Yeah, I've used it a few times to some decent effect, but it's extremely rare you can use any of their abilities and two 15K swings usually aren't great.
Top 10 best grade 4 pls
the only grade 4's we got were in the premium collection and I already dit a Winners/ Lossers videos back when the set come out. as for normal G4 we only got like 4 of those and they fail in comparison with strides.
Duuuuuuude! You forgot to include the whole gear chronicle clan there!
Too real...
My heart :'(((
@@VanguardInsider Next set, buddy, keep it together... ;-)
Guus van Voorst i reaally hope so, at least, we are getting chronofang.
Field feather is better than arc saver
Om Ghosal hence the reason why some blaster players use the card as second g3.
Agreed
9:39 No, It’s because people don’t know how to use it
Ahaha, how are you going to know how to use it when you will never to live long enough to use the card
How, then, do you use it?
Worse than vbuster first stride, worse than voltage second stride and beyond, tell me how this card can be used.
Use it as your finisher, Don’t use it for anything else, 4 Drives with no PG guard is great when your opponent is on 5 damage
It’s good but not in this meta
No "little battler, Tron"?
