  • With the reveal of the main BCS formats this competitive Vanguard season, it has become clear the V Premium will no longer be a main competitive Words format anymore, and instead relegated to a side event.
    Let's look back on why V Premium ended up this way, and why it suffered an even worse fate in Japan.

    RIP V-Premium. This is the format I started with at the tail end of the era back in 2020 (yes the dark times), but through this format I became introduced to the incredible game of Vanguard. Farewell V, see you in the side events

    My dream product was always a premium/V set where the cards both worked as individual V deck support units and easily supplemented into their respective premium builds, like say Bigbelly or Ahsha. Shame that Bushiroad was so adamant about ending V that they never even attempted to explore that design space.

    V premium will never die, so long as the old guard perseveres it. We can still do community tournaments through remote fights. We now have a format that the community can regulate outside of Bushiroad. I can see it now, community ban and restriction lists, maybe even community erratas. We could even incorporate ride decks im those community tournament.

Most of my stuff is V Series, my Overdress stuff is really far behind.

    I feel that the biggest problem that V-Premium faced was that the new D format cards were unusable in V-Premium decks. The D cards however could be used in Premium decks, which is all well and good, but outside of the clan collections V-Premium had no new releases. And why would Bushiroad allocate resources towards an older version of their game while trying to further production on the newest version? From a business perspective it makes sense, but I will certainly miss having an official format with no OT.

    Let's be honest, they fucked up V the second they made secondary Imaginary Gifts and allowed for one gift to draw 1. Idk if they made secondary Gifts before set 1 or after, but it very clearly was a mistake in the long run. It even negatively effected Premium.
    I'm am happy that V was a thing tho, despite my problems with it. It's was the testing grounds for what D standard is now. The game design now wouldn't be as good without the experimentation in V.

      @-Cetus- 27 дней назад +1

      They really should have just made it so all gifts can be used by all clans, to allow counterplay in gift choosing, with clans specializing in one gift but being able to lean into others.
      I do think though V was always going to be a format with an expiration date on it, due to the clan issue being something Bushiroad needed to resolve for rotating support. I want to believe they made the format as a drawing board to see what works and what doesn't in the game for experimenting while D was cooking in the background. In hindsight, rebooting the anime to take after the manga like that while releasing redone decks felt like something they wouldn't be able to keep up forever, even when they started making new content with Shinemon to have something new for the franchise.

  • @johnnywu8708
    @johnnywu8708 Месяц назад +6

    I really enjoyed V honestly. I remember I actually didn't like Standard very much when it came out. Even now, I still think V card design made decks feel different from one another compared to Standard. V made decks actually feel like they had their own identity. With Standard, a nation's gimmick only serves as a different method to achieve the same end goal most other decks have. You always have a restander/restand enabler RG. You always have a draw 1 RG. And if not a restander RG, your VG either restands itself or restands an RG. V was by no means perfect, but it still did a decent number of things right.

      ​@@DifferentFight I would say the reason is because in Thailand we have both Japan cards and Thai cards at the same time. Japan card community is huge, and we play mostly D-standard, even larger than Yu-gi-oh at this point. (a lot of players left during V, myself included).
      So when the Thai card reached D, the player already knew what to expect and see how popular D is, the abandonment of V is pretty seamless.

    I never really liked the meta decks in V but when you went to tier 2 or tier 3 decks there was a lot of fun to be had in a lot of formats so it's a bit bittersweet to see the format go for that purpose, but mainly sad to see it go because let's be honest, standard is not premium support, outside of very niche cards, basically nothing goes into the format, where every V set, or every clan collection would spice up the format, at least a little bit, so it's sad to see it be officially shelved for that reason.

My buddy already liked Vanguard and loved the Colorful Pastorale anime, so I said I'd open the set too , but he'd essentially tell me what to buy for my deck . Waifu bait (mermaid idols) worked. Had a crappy Melody deck mainly using Serena and Fina since we purposely made my deck different (read worse), but it did eventually lead us finding 2 more players at a small convention . Even with our currently still small group, I've come to love the game and have between at least 20-30 decks with all formats. Lots of Lyrical /Bermuda Decks. I'm planning to build V-duo . I've never played in tournaments beyond standard ones, which has only been recently, since being dropped at bigger events really doesn't affect me much

    V was definitely fun towards the end, but man were those first 2.5 years rough. It just feels like the main draw is no OTs, and 1 CB cranks like 100k power in terms of value at times. Its definitely a fun break in between P and D when my friends and I just wanted a pallet cleanser. But for the sake of premium in JP, from my understanding Japan usually just moves on as new things come out. Very rarely are old things supported or even looked at, because its old things that companies would have to invest man power and dev time into them, whereas they could just be allocating resources to the new thing. But I just feel like thats really crappy to your legacy players. Personally I've been playing vanguard since 2012 and I would like for my cards to remain playable and supported from time to time. Unless they unify the game to just premium again, I think its ridiculous to expect a bunch of product releases for premium when OD is the primary format. However I would like a reprint set and a supplementary set every year to keep the game fresh (and a ban list would also be nice, instead of playing the same format for a year).

    One thing I would've liked to see more of is Clan Collections, even if they didn't sell super well in the end.
    It was a neat way to give "modern" support to decks in Premium, even if they didn't work out in V-Premium (often due to lack of cards, see Metalborg, Seal Dragon, Enigman, etc). Though I also very much did not like when they essentially scrapped old gimmicks in their V remakes (see V Tirua only working with bouncing, not botdecking, or Raindear being a highlander cards instead of having her g3 gimmick)
    Without those around, all those old archetypes are effectively left to rot unless they just happen to get an Encounter in Standard, and nowadays that only even works if the relevant support cards don't even cost Energy to use (Prem. Coral for example would probably run 1 of the Encounter Coral G3 for going first, but it just can't use it because there's no Energy).
    I think it's a shame seeing beloved decks effectively stagnate forever, and Clan Collections were a great way to alleviate that, so I hope we'll get *something*, *anything* to replace them in the future.

    I started the game with Ezel so I missed out on playing the OG Royals like Alfred and Gancelot but still loved them because of the anime. I got somewhat of a chance with Liberator, but the start of V Era was such a hype period of my life simply due to how much I liked the old characters and units. Reflecting on it later down the line, V was all kind of messed up from the power levels to the markers etc etc, but I enjoyed it for what it was, a nostalgia trip and I was happy to go through it (once). Saying that of course as mentioned, D Series even though has its own problems (OT), it feels way better overall as a game and has a lot more staying power for growth and expansion. Not to mention the anime hits a lot harder too which really helps the brand.

    Amazing that most V-premium players also wanted to play standard and premium. Meaning that the format itself and the way they made it as a compensatory excuse for rebooting again, is yet again, another bad decision made by Bushiroad.
    Also, the fact that they didn't release any material for one year,proves to us that they wanted to end the format and keep only standard vs Premium.
    To me, it is just another evidence that this game is not for me. And that i made the right decision to sell out this garbage company's game.

    a moment of silence for all the decks I was interested in when I got into the game. Aka most of the budget BT decks that got no direct support after twinkle melody. V was how I got into the game following Vanguard Zero during the pandemic, so it has a place in my heart, but I am having a lot of fun for the most part in standard! I don't think I could ever look back!

    A very noisy player actually got my vanguard locals to switch to V premium entirely from standard last year. They showed up for about 2 weeks of that and then never again. Shortly after, shop started alternating weeks but could never get enough people for V premium so like 3 months later it was back to normal every week. This guy hasn’t been back once since lol

Then V happen , they retcon em from scratch and give us whatever the hell is that force passing and Gacha Nature. I feel like im forcing myself to play the game.

    2018 through 2020 were really the darkest times for me as almost all players here stopped playing immediately on the reboot announcement, including trying to sell all their cards even. Legit a self fulfilled catastrophe by ourselves. It (very) slowly recovered and I did have some moments of fun with V, Zanbaku and Luard vs Angerblader (yes, I loved this). But it is hard to think positively when gifts have probably made it really hard to design for premium forever lol.
    I think premium is in a more than ok spot right now but I also agree that banning OT and adding energy would immediately rejuvenate the format.

    I REALLY loved the V clan collections. It felt like they fixed all the problems that V had (besides Steam Maidens hehe). The new decks that came from the V clan collections were creative, fun, and some powerful enough to keep up with the end of V level of power creep.
    I do wish JP would do more Premium tournaments. The way I see it is that we don’t get much Premium product because it doesn’t sell well in JP. It doesn’t sell well in JP because the format isn’t popular. The format isn’t popular because they don’t have enough tournament support for it. So in theory, doing more tournaments for it would fix all that.
    Either that, or give the global side exclusive premium product.

  • @LittIeClank

    V holds a special in my heart cause it acted as a weird proxy nostalgia cause I was pretty much a TD Andy up till V cause of no income, then when V happened I had income so I could play the cards I wanted to play back in the day that I couldn't and when I got tired of the nostalgia Shinemon happened and the unique playstyles of the original units were wonderful. Sadly couldn't keep my interest in other when they announced the reboot as it became a format that would only get updated like once a year. Interesting enough V's lasting legacy for me is that G is the death of Vanguard, which didn't help when Zero died after G and the stride deck sets doing what they have been doing to D.

  • @toeichiearth
    @toeichiearth 19 дней назад

    3 Weeks late, but I should say that energy generator is a mechanic that could be harmful to premium by design. They created the mechanic to have control over the things they release in standard. If a card skill could break premium the could just put the energy requirement to avoid it.

  • @Yusei5DSynchro
    @Yusei5DSynchro Месяц назад +2

    If it wasn't for V series, I might've quit Vanguard after the G era with how harmful stride was becoming for the game. V felt refreshing to me by moving away from the Stride mechanic and embracing the Imaginary Gift system and it was fun because it felt like we were back to the roots of Vanguard but with higher numbers.
    With V not as prominent now, I fear that Premium may suffer the same fate at a later time due to its overreliance on V for support along with D making more Energy-based and ride deck-based support which are practically unusable in Premium. Without any new products (And I mean actual new cards. Not reprints or erratas), it'll only be a matter of time.

  • @velar25
    @velar25 Месяц назад

    I think Bushiroad should just rip the band aid off and put the ride deck on premium. Would it be a nightmare for some cases? yes, but it'd also make every D product a must for premium players.

    V-Premium was a lot of hype for me as it was a way for me to get back into the game after all of the second half of G really burnt me out and the fact that I was much more lacking in purchasing power back in the day. I eventually landed myself a Brufas deck which I had a lot of fun with for a while and I felt myself enjoying it a lot again but I did somewhat miss the premium stuff I gave up after I quit the game briefly. I still haven't gotten back into the game physically in D format as I'm more conservative in spending money on hobbies currently but I do plan on doing so eventually, just when my interest is on the up again.

    I'm gonna miss it. V was the format I came back into the game with and grew to really like it. Sadly, I saw the writing on the wall with standard, so this doesn't surprise me. That being said, as much as I cherish my memories of Vanguard as a whole, I don't like standards feel and can't get people to try premium, so it's kinda the end of the road.

    I wish our community didnt die. They had a following for D. I left in earlier stages of D format but apparently a year and a half after my departure, it got to a point where one player started becoming inaufferable to be around and it didnt matter where they would go to play the game. This player would follow them. The TO who told me all this legit was on vacation with his wife and when they would come back they would prepare more tournements for the community. The insufferable player kept harassing them on socials over tournament dates that in the end the guy gave up on the game pretty much. Its just sad to see that one player ruined it for a community of about 20-25 people.

    I was introduced during V, fell in love with Granblue and Nightrose, and although it's not quite a Nightrose unit Dragon Undead, Skull Dragon is my boy. I tried playing V more but it felt too much like League of Legends for Cardfight. Sure, you can have a cool thing but it was toxic primarily because of the Imaginary Gifts certain clans got. I often found myself in the situation of, "Oh, you have another PG? Well I have 8 attackers on the front row," or something like that.
    I won't she'd tears if they shut down the tourneys completely, or it gets fully absorbed into Premium, but it's not lost on me that people prefer it. I just disagree that it should have lasted in EN for as long as it did.
