Doesn't the luffy leader just turn maria into a ramp 1-2? You can use her ability on 3 don, go to 8, and then when you go down to 2 at end of turn, it would trigger the ramp 2 from leader, right?
I'm excited to see where the meta is going to go. Hopefully, the banlist addresses the current issues of the game. They most likely will hit R/P Law. He's affecting the game in a way where none of the new leaders theyve released get to shine. I'm also expecting a Gecko hit. However, the banlist needs to more than just hit 3 cards like the last one.
So for sure, the game is very strong and every leader needs to come with support to enter the pool that exists. I think it could be productive to say “assuming this gets the support it needs, this could be however strong” and could use that to talk about what support you need. Robin needs a big bad that is probably leader locked or purple. Luffy needs more don -2 effects that are straw hats. A blocker and some removal could be great
@@curiouschao1 Not really since that isn’t true. You can give a leader the support they need but it doesn’t matter if another leader’s support is too oppressive and counters your playstyle. PY Pudding & BP King were given all the tools to be great and it didn’t matter because RP Law is too oppressive. Power creep has gotten to the point where you can’t make assumptions like that anymore. If 3 months ago you would’ve showed someone Pudding, Marco & King reveals and said that none of them would be meta nobody would’ve believed you. If your playstyle can’t compete with the best deck you’re not good, & powercreep has gotten so exponential that it has made predicting the competitive climate feel like a coin toss.
@@SmallHatCrew I just think it makes for more interactive and fun content. You can add the disclaimer that we all hope and pray that we get saved from the Law OP08 format, I just felt like a lot of the video was dedicated to facts that are kinda known that don’t really have anything to do with these leaders. I understand where you’re coming from though.
And to that end, I didn’t say that your conclusion has to be that these will be regional winners, it’s just how far could it be pushed if it got a perfect pool of support and what would that look like.
@@curiouschao1 I hear you, but if you look at older reveal critiques where we did that and gave full disclosure, in the event the speculative prediction ended up being wrong the obnoxious commenters that don’t understand nuance go “Remember when you were wrong about Vivi? What about Yamato?” almost a year later. I stopped doing critiques altogether for a while because it just wasn’t worth it anymore since it stopped being fun. This is the middle ground now since the alternative is not speaking on a leader at all. If my hobby that I do for fun turns into something I dread doing I just won’t do it anymore. Notice there is no Ain video? You have other commenters to thank for that lol.
@@SmallHatCrew ah, fair enough, I picked the game up in early April, so only been engaging with content so long. I forget par for the course are stupid people. Because I, ya know as a not trash person, thought, oh it would be cool when you were later right or that card does come out in the support. It makes more sense that most people do the opposite lol. Well keep on fighting the good fight, appreciate the content y’all do make.
Yamato is a fictional character. If I mess up an actual person’s pronouns then by all means correct me, but Yamato is not real and doesn’t have feelings. This is a non-issue.
@@SmallHatCrewAs a trans person myself who sees people intentionally misgendering my favorite character all the time it says you don’t view trans identities as valid, furthermore it goes against Oda’s authorial intent. Everyone in the story uses his correct pronouns. It’s like going out of your way to call Robin ‘he’s or Luffy ‘she’. Comes off like you’re being intentionally disrespectful
It sounds more like you’re just looking for something to be upset about when my comment LITERALLY says “If I mess up an ACTUAL person’s pronouns then by all means correct me”. Your “people in the story use the correct pronouns” rebuttal doesn’t mean anything when some of us dropped OP well before Yamato was introduced. I’ve donated over $100 to trans causes starting as far back as covid, the FIRST person I EVER entrusted mod permissions to in my discord server is trans, and I NEVER misgender my trans friends or anyone that tells me their preferred pronouns. Get over yourself if you think messing up a cartoon character’s pronouns makes me transphobic. I’m begging you to touch grass if people not instinctively knowing a cartoon character’s gender identity is a problem for you.
@@SmallHatCrew I was just trying to let you know it comes off as disrespectful. You didn’t need to trot out all your accomplishments to prove you aren’t transphobic. That wasn’t even on the table before you brought it up. Lol. It’s cool tho, I’ll just unsubscribe. It ain’t like there aren’t infinity other channels on YT that do the exact same shit you guys do but better, Hahah.
Please unsubscribe, you won’t be missed! ❤️ I have plenty of well meaning trans viewers that unlike yourself don’t actively damage the community’s image the way you do and none of them would respect your harmful approach to “spreading awareness”. Keep telling allies “you don’t view trans identities as valid” and you might unintentionally push a lot of people to the other side. For the sake of trans identifying people please do better. Also take some accountability. You can’t say “that was never on the table” immediately after saying “you don’t view trans identities as valid”. You’re literal scum.
@@NickGNight It isn’t a problem of not having enough searchers, between Nami & “In 2 years”that’s already 8. The criticism is directed purely at the purple searcher Zoro.
Btw, the art of robin from sky island arc. Her baroque works outfit is purple.
Now assalamualaikum but how do you know this sir
@@TruAbsoluteZer0 Aalaikum Assalam! From my memory. For confirmation, you can search robin skypiea and you'll see she is wearing that exact outfit.
As a Nico Robin fan can confirm 😂 this is right before Eminem gets zap happy and should be the one who should disappear
Appreciate the both of you @@GRAsayHEY

I read this as a gecko leader hit and thought you were out of your mind 😂
I don't think they will ban Gecko because there is his reprint in the reprint set. Maybe a limit.
@@starbound100 I hope they errata him some how
Like at least Color lock it if not type lock if
Yeah removal on a leader is just too strong, you get to abuse that sh*t every turn, he gotta go

the combo is you drop 10cost luffy go to 6 play black maria and ramp to 10 again :D
*cries in Lim*
Isn't there a 1c event searcher for strawhat, kid, and hearts pirates?
2:48 here we goo 😭😂
Do y’all think we’ll get a leader with an “on play”. Like when you put leader down they do something?
@@andrewjones162 No because you have to reveal leaders before you decide who goes first, starting hands and life. It wouldn't make sense.

Nice face candy hommie 👨
most attractive in the op scene fr
With Luffy, if you have a kid on the board, or another type to ramp 1 like pudding, you can back to back 9 drop kaido
"when you're at sea, you fight pirates" searches any color straw hat in a purple event so you can do stuff like Onami off that

Please let robin be meta enough to spook off yellow but not meta enough to make me deal with banish leaders
