- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2023
- Sup guys, Vv back with another video. This is just a basic tutorial-style video geared a bit more towards newer players who aren't sure which Color they should start out with getting in to the game. Hope it helps! If I missed anything, please don't hesitate to add some helpful information. And of course if anyone has any questions, ask away!
Thanks for stopping by, please don't forget to Like and Subscribe.
This video is a bit out of date, I'm working on updating it soon!
Did you make a new one? I loved the explanation and detail as a new player coming in.
@@KP-uz3nk It's literally in the works right now, I want this one to be much better, it will hopefully be done in about a month!
Green: Rests characters, and KO's rested characters
Purple: -DON for bonuses, Ramp and control
Black: Lowers costs, and KO's based on cost
Blue: Draw cards, and control your top deck
Yeloow: manipulate life
Red: wins
Red: “wins” lol
red deck wins is a thing in like 3 TCG’s now?
@@zEr-ne5ri There is this guy at my local who was telling me he was a DragonBall player before moving to One Piece, apparently in the early days of Dragon Ball red was the most busted too. So hopefully Bandai is faster at fixing this a second time around
@@magmatard8737 was also in digimon where red/blue omnimon was meta but the red version was stronger with purple beelzemon decks being also good but not on the same powerlevel
Just wanted to add to the acclaim. I am looking to get into One Piece after being in and out of MTG for many years and needed to start finding what style i would like. This video has been such a great video for this!
0:00 - intro
1:00 - red
6:19 - green
15:56 - blue
20:22 - purple
26:30 - black
32:29 - yellow
36:27 - conclusion/summary
I think every color can do everything thats like draw, ko s, rush, basic things, but it differs in;
Red manipulates power
Black manipulates cost
Purple manipulates don
Blue manipulates deck
Yellow manipulates life
Green manipulates stance
Beautifully described as a magic. The gathering player and a huge one piece geek this describes it perfectly. I think in the beginning they weren't exactly straightforward as to how the color schematic was going to work, but I feel like everybody kind of just figured it out
May i know weakness from everyone colors,like red win against purple or something like this
Been an MtG player since the early 2000s. Although I’m very versed with MtG (L1 judge as well), this video was of GREAT, thorough help for me. It’s been over 2 decades since I’ve learned another TCG and boy am I excited. Great vid sir!
Thank you so much. I'm glad you are checking out this game, I don't know if I've ever had so much fun playing a TCG (and I did really enjoy MTG).
i am so ecstatic that you're making these types of videos, they are truly helping me learn and giving me A LOT of motivation to really pick up optcg
Thank you so much ! This was such an amazing intro to colors. I've watched 1-2 videos about the game in general, so all the extra info was amazing. Can't wait to try the game, thanks again!
This is such a thorough overview of the colors and I really appreciate this as an awesome resource for me moving forward as I slowly venture into OP TCG. Truly appreciate this
Ngl this is an awesome video, i have just enough game knowledge to piece together what you’re talking about but not enough to watch a more complicated video yet, this video is exactly what i needed, thank you!
dont ever apologize. you did great in the video. got into op tcg literally yesterday and this was so resourceful
Thank you for this video! Ive recently gotten interested in the One Piece TCG and Im glad you were able to explain the game so well ❤️
As someone who is looking to jump into one piece, this video was fantastic. Thanks for taking the time and effort to do it
You picked a great time to get into the game actually, OP-03 is going to be wrapping up in a little less than a month, and many people viewed the "meta" in OP-03 as a bit boring and too much Red, which is understandable. However, in OP-04 we are going to get access to some really strong Leaders who should be able to balance things out and shake things up a little bit (especially Blue/Black Rebecca and Purple/Green Doffy coming in OP-04).
Good timing. This got recc'd to me just as I was thinking about getting into the game.
Awesome to hear that, if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. I have been playing TCG's competitively for about 15 years now (starting with MTG back in 2008 and moving through most the big name titles) and One Piece TCG is one of the best TCG's I've ever played. The amount of polish and thought they put into this game is really satisfying. They made sure that you would never have to worry about being Resource starved or flooded, they simultaneously made sure that your resources will double over late in the game as ways to buff your Characters, the way different Leaders can change the entire playstyle of a deck that might share the same color as another Leader, lol I could go on, but I think you get my point. I'll finish with this: I had quit playing TCG's right before COVID and didn't plan on returning and then I came across this game and now I'm hooked and even running a RUclips channel on it haha.
few examples of less subscribers, but puts out great content. you earned yourself a like man. (which i rarely do like videos)
I dislike the quality of the visual cards. At times I can barely read the text. Other than that, FULLY agree.
I know so much about this game, but I still LOVE these kinds of videos. Especially I like how the youtuber isn't presenting him as the guy who knows everything. But it's overall pretty accurate and easy yet still interesting explained.
If you read this, pls continue like that, I like it- subbed. Maybe you find better resolutions for the card or upload in a better quality, I don't know what it is
Just started getting into this card game. Thanks for the video and explanations as I learn more 💯💯
This video is very insightfull. I'm getting into the game now and i'm searching for info all over the place. I managed to buy the thre captains ultra deck (red/purple) and all things considered, seems to have been a nice choice.
Hey bro, thanks alot. I just had my first game today with my zoro deck. But i think ill make a green deck next. Probably Law. Keep it up man, this helped alot. And when this game gets more popular itll help others too🙏
Bro this is great content. Keep it up! ❤
Very helpful and amazing video ! :)
I love Megellan and all the Navy stuff I might have to try some weird purple or black testing haha but I'll look into the others colours too :D
The double colour leaders seem fun to play around with and I love theory crafting. Maybe I can make an awesome Kaido or Z Deck.
If you want to win, red or yellow. If you want to have fun, literally anything else.
What a great video. Im just starting and this help me decide which deck to focus.
Thank you so much and really glad to hear that!
I’m gonna get some cards soon thanks for the tutorial and descriptions super helpful
I'm finishing up a video (should be done by the end of this week) on building and buying your first budget deck, it might also help.
@@Vvulfrik that's gonna be very useful, subscribed so I can see more of your content man thanks
Black also tends to care about its trash pile. Unlike any of the other colors so far, black uses the trash as a resource:
- OP-03 Blueno brings a character back from the trash on K.O.
- OP-03 Kaku and OP-03 Rob Lucci character bottom deck two cards from the trash to activate their effects
- The Dressrosa archetype from OP-04 trashes cards from the deck and uses the trash to activate many of their effects
- OP-02 Sakazuki character et al. send a potential resource to the trash from the hand to activate their effects
- Many of the OP-05 black cards revealed use the trash:
- e.g. OP-05 Rob Lucci sends three cards from the trash to the bottom of the deck to activate his effect
- e.g. OP-05 Rebecca brings a cost 3-7 card from the trash to hand then plays a cost 3 card from the hand)
- Every black searcher iirc sends cards to the trash in addition to searching.
Very good, informative video overall btw.
Excellent point, I should have mentioned this in the video
The alternative to this is picking the card with the sickest art and then going from there :)
but in all seriousness this is much appreciated
still learning the game but based on what you said with purple it reminds me of the black color in magic the gathering. Black can do basically anything the other colors do, but usually at the cost of resources/life. So I can imagine as the games card pool expands purple could end up being crazy good.
Thank you for the good video helped out a lot keep it up👍
Great Video! Very informative
great video thanks, subscribed for the update video
Played my first games against my friend who is also a new player and we would refer back to this video if we need any questions answered! Thanks, it was so helpful (‘:
Awesome! Very glad to hear that, and any questions, don't be afraid to ask
As a new player but day 1 fan of the anime I need to add that what makes this game so fun for me is some of the effects makes sense for the characters. Examples I’ve noticed is red / green Law’s Shambles ability, Doflamingo’s puppeteer ability & Namis run away ability lol that’s only a couple of the more obvious examples
Another one I just noticed is black SR Shanks ability to clear the field with 1 cost characters is obviously his conquerors Haki lol
I bought 1 random booster out of curiosity, and got the 1of2 Secret Rare Katakuri and that immediately hooked me. I’m just getting into this and attending a OP04 release on Friday!
Love to hear it. I hope you enjoy it, you are coming into the game at a great time.
Briliant content. Thanks a lot.
My friend been playing from the very beginning and I’m just getting into it now. This video has saved many minutes of him having to further explain these to me😂 great video!
I just watched this, thank you
This video was great
great video thank you very much
Hey that's me! I'm a new red purple Law player and I'm trying to get good and move to purple green Luffy next season.
Hey love the vids!! I just had one question for the trigger ability! Does the ability only trigger when my leader takes damage or does it also trigger with other characters ? thank you very much great vid! Picking up a booster box today
Appreciate the compliments :] As to the Trigger question: A Trigger can only be activated when you take a Life. When you take Life, every time be sure to check for a trigger, and if you have no Trigger or if you get a Trigger you do not want to use, make sure to tell your opponent as you bring the card to your hand: "No Trigger." However if you do get a Trigger from Life that you want to use, then you would simply reveal the card, use whatever the Triggered Effect is and then trash the card with the Trigger. All Triggered cards will be trashed upon using their Triggered Effect unless otherwise stated on the card (Example: Fuugetsu Omusubi) which is very rare.
Hope that helped, if it wasn't clear by all means ask away and I'll answer it to the best of my ability
Great video. Question: is there any "recycling" color or archetype? I like the feeling of being able to retrieve and reuse cards, especially the trash/graveyard.
Yes, Black has the trash interactions and recursion (which didn't even really exist until after I put this video out). I want to remake this video soon, it's still pretty accurate, but its one of my older videos now and my recording/production quality has gone up a lot since then.
Was looking into the game in the past few days and was about to buy a starter deck from a local shop to try it out with a friend. Was going blue since i like the seven warlords theme. I usually play control style deck in other card games, and seeing that the one i was about to buy is a control deck made me happy. From this video and explanation i also find interest in black deck. And a Black + Blue deck could maybe be interesting. Any pointers to what to look up to for making up a Black + Blue deck?
Yes, definitely check out the Blue Black Rebecca deck. It is a control style deck. The Leader is dual colored but still has 5 Life and can not attack lol, that's how "control"-y it is. The Leader's Effect is: Cost 1: If you have 6 or less Cards in Hand Look at the top 2 cards of your deck, you may reveal and add 1 Dressrosa type card to your hand and trash the rest. The deck is Dressrosa type, so you should always be hitting with the Leaders Effect.
@@Vvulfrik Was looking at your Rebecca deck profile right now! I personally find interesting a leader card that cannot attack. Also the double color have less life was kind of a bummer, but hearing that Rebecca is double color and 5 LIfe like most of mono colors leaders solve the problem and i rather "sacrifice" my attack then the
@@Elpitto Awesome, yes OPTCGSIM is incredible for playtesting decks and learning the game. Good luck!
@@Vvulfrik Thanks thanks! Will do my best!
as a magic player and OP fan I have been looking at this game and it looks great and fun.
I do have the concern that the fundamental design feels kind of restrictive I wonder if their is enough design space within the game to keep it frash long term.
I started playing MTG back in 2008 and I will always have a special place for that game in my heart as it really is what introduced me to the TCG universe and was an incredibly fun and well designed game. However, I stopped playing MTG about 10 years ago and just started playing other TCG's and even taking breaks and such like when the pandemic hit etc.
I was not a One Piece fan at all and only got into the game because I was looking for a new TCG to get into with my son. He is a huge One Piece fan, so I thought, "why not, lets give it a try." Here I am now haha, making a video every day and pouring hours of research and playtesting into the game and can't believe how good it is.
In some ways the game is restrictive how there is no equivalent to MTG's "Instant" cast Spells, but there is still a lot of interactions between you and your opponent, which allows for potential outplays and so on. I have voiced some concerns in some of my other videos similar to this one where I actually have a big problem with how there is no equivalent to Doomblade in this game or even Terror or Wrath of God. However, I think as the game continues to age (because it is still very young at 3 sets) I think it will get through some of these growing pains. I hope so at least
@@Vvulfrik I think I am gonna give it a shot and I will be happy to follow your content.
@@amandasmith1920 That's awesome, I hope you enjoy it (both the game and the channel)!
Amazing. I am having a hard time to choose what deck to build
I think it really depends on what kind of playstyle you like, would you rather be an aggressive style deck? Maybe try Red out. If you want a more midrange feel, try out Yellow or Black. If you want to try out something that has more of a slower paced but control oriented playstyle, maybe try out Blue or Green. But ultimately, you can definitely play whichever color you want and try to make it your own style.
Thanks. I like gimmicky style so I just decided to go for Law red-green deck. Can't wait to build my own deck
For red u didn't mention board control via destruction
This has big 'college lecture' vibes, and if these were the classes being offered at the time, I might not have flunked out.
What exactly does lowering a cost of an opponents character do? Like how does it benefit you? (Trying to learn about the game)
So a Character card will always have a cost and certain removal cards will only be usable on Characters who cost a certain amount. However, if you can lower the cost of these characters into range to hit with your removal, you can start removing really big targets with smaller removal. So think of it like a way to combo.
Example:
1. A Character costs 5
2. You have removal that can hit a 3 cost or less
3. If you can lower the cost of the Character by -2, you can now hit the 5 cost Character with your KO that can only target 3's or less.
Hopefully that made sense
@@Vvulfrik yes that makes sense!Also is the lowered cost like a permanent effect or for that turn only? Thank you for answering!
as a new player, which sets should i invest in to make a deck for competitive play?
As a new player it will probably be best to just buy singles. The two cheapest and best routs to get into the game with right now are probably Yellow and Green. I did an entire video showcasing a super tight and cheap Yellow deck, and just recently the ST-11 Green Uta deck hit the shelves and is very nice + affordable. The only expensive necessary card is the searcher Nami. Was there a specific deck (color) you were looking at starting off with?
@@Vvulfrik hey Vv. sorry for the long wait, i was busy sorting through all my cards. a little background went from pokemon collecting in aug 2023 to op tcg playing in jan 2024
the deck it looks like i like to play would be blue or yellow. i have enel/katakuri for yellow and nami for blue. im leaning towards yellow because of the life manipulation (i watched from your other video) but i do like nami's ability to win games but reaching 0 cards on your deck as well. i have been looking through the meta decks from each set to see how each cards might still be relevant.
i have some event singles from op 01. i have 2 booster boxes from op02, op03, op04 and 3 boxes from op03. i live near op tcg shop in NJ so im able to get st-01, st-07,st-11. st-13, for retail (including op03,04,05)! op-02 and 1 box of op-05 was aftermarket unfortunately and op01 is crazy expensive
yellow cards w/ katakuri i pretty much have all the cards necessary except for 8c katakuri since i only have 1 of them. and with enel, the 8c yamato from 04 is my only missing card(s).
i actually taught my gf how to play and we played each other with st-11 decks, you were right on your other video, the deck is OP! our first TCG!
sorry this is a bit long but thank you for any wisedom and/or feedback as i do want to be competitive in this game.
❤
So the video is helpful but saying somthing then saying oops srry then saying somthing backing up again confused me enough that i had to rewind several times
Why is lowering the cost of your opponents character a good thing? Doesn’t it mean your opponent can use the card for less Don and then use another card since he has some don left over?
Good question. So your opponent will play the card for it's normal cost from their hand. However, when it is on the Field, Black cards can manipulate it's cost, lowering it into range of your Removal effects.
Example:
Sakazuki, a 6cost Character can KO a 5 Cost Character. If your opponent has a 10 Cost Character, then he is safe from Sakazuki. However, if you can lower said Characters by 5 (from an effect like Ice Age, or the 10 cost Kuzan's effect) you will be able to take out the 10 cost Character your opponent controls.
Hopefully that made sense, just say if not I'll try to explain it again :]
What so you mean by midrange? It's in nearly all the color slides.
A "midrange" deck is a deck that just seeks to develop it's board taller (bigger characters) as opposed to building wider (smaller characters flooding the board). For example, a rush deck will typically not have a Character in it that costs 6 or more resources. Whereas a Midrange deck will have a very balanced curve of cards that might have 40% Characters that cost below 4, 40% that cost 4-7, and then 20% that cost 8+. Those numbers don't have to be exact, but you get the idea.
@@Vvulfrik thanks for the explanation!
Are games harder with matching color opponents? Red v. red
They can be, for example, within the color Red, you might go against a Whitebeard who is more of a midrange style deck and you might be playing a Rush deck (Leader: Zoro). In that case, Game knowledge will really come in to play. But either deck can definitely win.
When playing why not just keep attacking your opponents leader? What’s the point of attacking characters if you can keep buffing your characters and quickly get through life?
So that is definitely one strategy, however, if you don't find ways to keep your opponents Characters in check they start to get control of the board. Then once they get to the point where they start dropping blockers it becomes very hard to close out the game. Again, it's a good idea to go for the Leader with attacks as much as possible, buffing and smashing etc. Just got to make sure they don't take too much control of the board.
To help, I can give you a more practical example.
As you know, characters cannot Attack usually on the turn they are played. If a player manager to keep a lot of characters on the board versus (you in this example) a player that just attacks leader, initially probably you Will gain a Life advantage, but after he deals with your characters you are in a position where you have immediate access to only your leader Attack, while your opponent can attack a lot more, wich probably will close the initial gap, and It puts you into a difficult situation to come back from.
Trying to reach this situation Is one of the reasons why someone might want to try controlling the board, the goal Is forcing the opposition into having to invest resources in dealing with immediate threats and pressuring them into a losing position.
@@Vvulfrik I thought of another question (these answers really helped). Is there any rock-paper-scissors like consensus on how colors interact with each other? Like is red strong against blue and yellow strong against red or anything?
@@Spookyghost7 So in my opinion (other people might disagree) I think it's more about how the deck is built. For example, if a deck is built to be really Aggressive, like Law (Red/Green) it will do some major damage to a Control deck like Queen (Blue/Yellow) before it can get the ball rolling and has a very favorable matchup against it. However, another version of Blue like Croc, which is more Midrange-y actually has a pretty good matchup into the faster decks. So while both decks are technically Blue (with some Yellow in Queen), they have different strengths and weakness, even within the same color.
Hopefully that helped :]
This game is so busted. Currently (OP-04) RED beats everything in an extreme manner. On the long term, I think that only RED, BLACK and BLUE are worthwhile decks in this game
Is there like standard or anything like that or can any card be used in tournaments
So currently all cards are legal that have been printed that you can buy (as long as it is an English version over here in the West, because the East is a set ahead of us). They are still on the first "Devil Fruit" at the bottom right of the card as of OP-04. However, in OP-05 they are starting to print Devil Fruit symbols with a #2 inside of them. So if I had to guess they will probably have 1-2 year cycled formats. Again, I have no way of proving that, just an informed/educated guess.
@Vvulfrik sounds good we have a bit b4 next set I'd assume since we just got this one
@@shayed_6668 Oh definitely, and if I had to guess they will probably keep the 1st rotation for at least 3 more sets. Because currently there are still under 1000 cards over all out of all sets and structure decks combined (including OP-05 stuff that hasn't come out yet). So if I had to guess, it will be based on a cycle of 4 sets a year = 1 cycle and once they have probably 3-4 full cycles, they will cycle out the oldest etc. But again, I don't have actual confirmation on that theory, but it makes a lot of sense.
What would be a good beginner deck?
It really depends on which color/playstyle appealed to you the most. Which color(s) were you leaning towards?
@@Vvulfrik tbh katakuri I have a yellow Yamato starter deck I’m new to the game
@@Krab9494 Good choice, Katakuri is a fun deck to start with, I'd recommend a list similar to this (which is a 3rd Place, 1024 player tournament deck):
4x Sanji (2k Counter) $4
4x Charlotte Opera $1
4x Charlotte Cracker (Smoothie can work here as well) $16
4x Charlotte Pudding (Searcher) $2
4x Charlotte Perospero $40
4x Streusen (2k Counter) $3
4x Shirahoshi $1
4x Charlotte Katakuri (8c) $120
4x Charlotte Linlin (10c) $20
1x Charlotte Linlin (7c) $3
2x Charlotte Katakuri (4c) $1
4x Charlotte Brulee $15
4x Charlotte Pudding (2k Counter) $1
3x Thunderbolt $1
Now, some of these cards are a little expensive and I don't know your budget/collection. My recommendations on substitutions until you can afford the list as is would be:
4x Shirley in the place of Perospero
4x Charlotte Smoothie in the place of Cracker
4x Charlotte Daifuku in the place of Katakuri (8c)
4x Charlotte Linlin (7c) in the place of Linlin (10c)
4x Pekoms in the place of Brulee
1x Thunderbolt for the final spot after replacing the Linlin 10c's with 7c's.
The last thing that I would recommend is to just buy an ST-07 Set, which will include 2 of the Charlotte Linlin 7c's, 2 Charlotte Katakrui 4c's, 4x Pudding (2k counter), and I believe 4x Brulee. It will also have the Daifuku's to help compensate for anything you might be missing. Another good option, since you already have the Yamato starter is to substitute in the Oden's, Ace's, and 5 cost Vanilla Yamato's wherever needed. Ultimately though, if you are serious about running Katakuri, you can get around not running 4 of the 8c Katakuri. The starter cheaper list I would recommend would be as follows:
4x Sanji (2k)
4x Opera
4x Smoothie
4x Pudding (searcher)
4x Shirley
4x Streusen (2k)
4x Shirahoshi
4x Daifuku
2x Linlin (10c)
2x Linlin (7c)
4x Katakuri (4c)
4x Pudding (2k)
4x Thunderbolt
2x Oden
Hope this helps and wasn't too confusing lol.
Thank you man yea I’m trying to get into the game so this helps out alot but my locals is more competitive so idk how I will be able to practice
@@Krab9494 I'm working on a video (that should be done by the end of this week) on making/buying your first budget deck.
How the fuck are you gonna put midrange-control on every single color....
they all waste your time because this game is terrible
