Only two cents I have is if people see blaster rideline they are less likely to rush. It’s not just about the twin drive. Specifically in Bastion you WANT your opponent to damage deny early since early game shield for a grade 3 deck is sus sometimes. Just my opinion Derrick is obviously leagues ahead of me just stating why some Bastion players choose the blaster Rideline, it’s a draw two or no damage turn, either is awesome and I’m not calling my OT
Thanks for your insights as always, Derick!Now I have better idea how to finalize my Bastion Accord build. I do wish to hear your opinions on two of my current dilemmas on the build though: first being before Sapient Owl become available on Dec 8th, I do ran two copies of Rhondalia and Dark Strain each in my main deck (as much as I like Rondalia, I do keep Dark Strain at reserve since it gives me consistent field presence, plus I do have 2 Sajess available for SC) . After I make room for 3-4 copies of Owls, should I make space for DBT-13 G3 Dragon cycler Sword Light Dragon Skylizen? I consider it to be direct upgrade of Dark Strain (giving 2 units boost should be more than enough especially by then Owl exists AND extra G3 shield is nice), do you think they are worth the deck space? The second one being like your build I ran 4 Accord (one in Ride deck) and 3 Prime, but instead of OG Bastion, I ran two Deliebere for Bastion searches, the one-hit pressure is actually quite nice and they do help me deck thinning even further. What do you think? Thank you and look forward to your future comprehensive guides! (Secret wish: hopefully we will have a Lianorn Vivace one coming XD, I already finished my theory crafting, but your insights are definitely invaluable)
On-hit effects I feel are too restrictive and are controlled by your opponent guarding which means it is not reliable enough to get what I want. Instead, I would run the card I need to up the chances to find it. You can test around with different cards in your build and it all comes from what your deck synergizes best with.
i think you could somehow save money by buying tohya SD and gramgrace stand up deck for the ride , triggers and pg. it's the grade 3's that costs somewhat a lot
Ok, so I have seen a lot of Bastion players run 3 copies of G4 and 2-3 copies of Regular Bastion on top of Draws and I really don´t get why, if you are playing that many Bastions then play fronts to make your attacks harder to guard, another thing I don´t get is why people keep in their main deck Rondahlia over Honnetaria, especially if you play the normal Bastion rideline. Using Rondhalia gives you no real advantage, a -1 to make a collumn hit even harder is not that great, even if she can provide later support from soul its much better to play Honnetaria for the offset on being either a boost or an attacker herself for whom you can actually plus, another thing that is fantastic about Honnetaria is that if you call her to rear due to Fort skill when ridden, if you have the CB, you can call another G3 from hand, making a nightmare of a turn 2 for the opponent (especially if you call a Sajess to make almost any defensive trigger useless). Also Rondahlia its pretty much uslees thanks to Sapient Owl who is a natural Boost that counts as a G3, even Skylanzen (The new G3 RRR from BT13) its a much better alternative, as it targets 2 units and gives them boost at the cost of either having a G4 VG or revealing a G4 in your hand. Now you may say that revealing such information to the opponent its not a good idea, but really the only thing you are showing the opponent is 2 things: Your cost for Accord Skill or proof that if they damage deny you they have to deal with 5 battles next turn. Also, he can draw you a card if used as cost for ride when you go to G3 and the units you choose to give boost can also be G2 or G4 in case something weird happens. Anyways sorry for the wall of text I guess.

I started this game with Bastion, Tohya being my favorite character, and I love how customizable this deck is. There's always room to adjust.

Doesn't accord drive check skill only activates if your opp's vanguard is grade 3? How could you perform drive check for rear guard if you went first?
That is true, thanks for pointing that out!
Any update for the deck for 50 cards format?
Will a comprehensive guide come out for Drajeweled Ignis anytime soon?
Thank you some one playing 4 Aldin i thought I was crazy one see every one play 2 lol
Can u drop an update now that we have owl and the stride dragon!
What are your thoughts on running g1 Incision Angel over g1 Fort for the ride line?
I think Fort is better because it gives you a unit on the board.
How many ferm up 0 chosen knights do you uses your camera was in the way

Godness, it's expensive lol The order is like 50 bucks and the generic grade 3 ist like 30 bucks a copy. Can we get a budget build as well?
I explained all of the budget counterparts in the video.
