I've been learning Vanguard for a few days thanks to the Overdress anime, and your videos have been very helpful! Deck profiles videos for each vanilla start deck + tips to upgrade them would be amazing! I know you touched on that a little in some videos but having everything wrapped up together would be great for new players like myself :) Thanks for the great content anyway!
Burning Flail is a really good card here as he can go into soul multiple times per game. Discarding or guarding early with it means it'll be revived by Bav when Armed then go to soul afterwards.
This seems to be a pretty fun deck to pilot! Never thought Bushi could make me want to play something from Dragon Empire. But, as you said, her waifu game is too strong ✊😔
One card that has been an absolute MVP is Orlando!!! He synergizes very well with Basvagara against certain control matchups and if you need the board they are easy to spam out onto the field which is a weakness of the deck. Basically they are meant to pad out your early rush or as early ditch targets, then when on G3 they are meant to be on columns you swing with before Vanguard because when Vanguard swings they go to soul and give +5k soul. Definitely would recommend considering in any Arms deck!
Yeah Orlando does synergize with Bavsargra pretty well, especially since Set 3 Bavsargra doesn't CB that much (I rarely use the Sword ping) Another card I've looked into is Randor (the G2 of the Eugene ride line). While the two or less RG requirement is iffy, he can SC1 and gain 5k power on attack which makes him another 15k beater that also fuels Bavsargra.
YO WAIY IM 18:38 sec into the video but HOLD ON.... BLACKOUT SLEEVES!??!? we got a phony Bavsargra fan here guys No need to thank me for calling him out, just like the comment
This is very nice. Somehow RU-vid ended up recommending me this video. Of course there has been new card releases since DBT04. Anyhow, ordered quite a few cards to make this deck. I messed up big time, though. I was thinking Trickmoon would be in the Start Deck. Little did I know the little guy is sitting at 110€ish for a Playset. God knows what the reason for the price inflation is. Price from 2-3 months ago on Cardmarket was 12.50€ per card.
I gotta ask... would Dragon Monk, Gojo be a good card in this deck? seems like the deck can be a little Counterblast heavy, and Bavsargra can revive him. Not only that, but I feel it would encourage players to guard against Bavsarga more because they dont want you gaining back resources
Kris, love your content but how do you talk about Standard decks for half an hour every time without fail? When I do a standard profile, I have trouble reaching 7 minutes lol
I think it helps to put yourself in the perspective that you're explaining these cards to a complete beginner that knows very little about the game, that's basically how I've been approaching it LOL
Bavsarga replaced Bruce in my heart because her playstyle resonates more for me. In Yugioh, one of my favorite decks was Zexal Weapon Utopia and Bavsarga brings me back to those nostalgic times. Also her art is high quality
So uuuuhhhh... how many of the shield do you run? If you mentioned on the video, I can't seem to find the spot. But pretty great video regardless. My friends just got me into this not too long ago and I'm a sucker for dragon themes. I want to play around with this deck but I'm not sure what the ratio guidelines are yet. I also want to point out that I appreciate how you take the time to this deck out and explain things for newbies. I know it's easy to just assume your audience is well versed but everything about this video has made me a subscriber. Already my preferred youtuber for this game.
For early game and aggression I'm finding very useful the dinosaur with on hit effect and the RR that goes in to soul for the ride line. On turn 2 they are 21k that can generate advance and disrupt the counter rush of your opponent. But I don't run the G3 for now and yep there are occasions that it can save the day so I'm considering him at 2x. I'm not a big fan of Namorkhar in the main. For sure I'm not a fan of the Trickstar version lol Btw waiting for the Spear and Trickmoon 🥰 Good list and thanks for the content.
kinda wish bavsargra had some soul charge cards in that sd.... but oh well i guess edit.... wait the 1st effect of bavsargra has a soul charge bit.... i thought it was a soul blast one
I actually picked up this new start deck before Christmas. I just hadn’t had a chance to pull out of the box due to waiting on some sound equipment which should be in tomorrow. Plus, been enjoying my newly upgrade decks because of Set 3.
I need some answer please... My friend insisted that an order that sent to prison will go straight to drop, will the order cards will kept in prison or not? Also any evidence or whatever to support your statement, cause my friend won't believe without sort of evidence...
They go to prison if they are in prison say from hand (in case of pure light from the soul) but when you pay the cost to free them they instantly get sent to drop zone
Can you choose when to use the Shield Arms card skill? or does it have to be used on your opponent's first attack? Also, I wonder how they will port Bavsargra to Vanguard Zero 🤔
Question: Don't you have to resolve Arhinsa (the G0 sv) first due to Namorkahr soul blast? Or can you still activate the G0 draw effect even when its already soul blasted?
I’ve been waiting for this, dude. Bavsargra simps rise up! Interesting build. How often do you run into CB issues, out of curiosity? I tried Tensha stead myself, tended to run into CB issues (but I’m not gonna claim to be the best player around, so maybe just playing poorly)
I tend to throw the sword 0-1 times per game. Consistently getting the +1 crit from soul blasting and always swinging for 23+ seems better to me. I throw the sword after getting good drive checks (especially with persona) and when the opponent is at 4.
I don't really run out much since I only really use the sword max 2 times per game, and Tensha is mostly there for hit pressure too so often he just gets guarded
slightly off-topic but since i'm interested in picking up this deck, will it rotate out of standard after X months and therefore be no longer usable? i still struggle on how the overdress standard format works (too many tcgs lmao)
I’ve tested Original Saver Zero and from my testing it’s a very hard deck to build and can feel difficult as your a zero base power it’s really hard to guard I think the main difficulty with this deck to make it good is all the deck building and I still can’t decide if I should run 8 draws because of all the retire or crits for pressure and shield that you definitely need. Also on a side note I’m almost certain that Force 1 is needed
I couldn't agree with you any more: Bavsargra even with just up to Set 3 cards is already so much fun as I can't help but love her playstyle. Being able to do almost a little bit of everything from retires, easy Crits, high-powered columns and even defense and recursion via the Shield and her first skill. Then there's the use of the Arms Orders that have various which personally for me makes for a cool deck both in playstyle and theming. And yes, Bavsargra is indeed bae, DEFINITELY my favorite female unit out of Overdress atm and might even be one of my fav female units period alongside Nightrose, Gavrail and Salome. Plus I love Mirei so much as well. I'm currently trying out a lot of things in my Pre-Set 4 Bavsargra list based on the currently available generic DE stuff out there. Some cards I've tried/am looking into are: Volcanigun Dragon to hit 28k with a 10k booster after Bavsargra's retire skill, Randor (the G2 of the Eugene line) and Orlando to fuel Soul/gain power, and Brachioforce (some common G2 from Set 3) for early game draw + retire. I do agree the Trickstar + Arcs package feels clunky in the deck since there's no way to consistently search Trickstar and as you said, I'd better off prioritizing the 2nd Arm for the mulligan.
I have the starter deck and used it but don’t understand how the arms work like for the shield do we have to c-blast 1 every time we you it or just once and for the sword so i s-blast 1 one to play with it but my opponent has 5 damage in the damage zone do i still get the plus 10k
Good thing I live in America and got this deck, the English version that is. I did put in Hungersaurus and Volcanic “Blaster” Dragon, because Bavsargra’s effect to wipe out the Front row with ease really makes it scary. Especially on a Persona Ride turn.
Because of the wording on the shield my friend says that with it being an auto skill that the first time that your vanguard is attacked while being equipped by The shield during each battle phase that it triggers and you can't choose when to use it. Is that correct?
Nice deck profile! I'm waiting for my Bavsagra to arrive and I'll be sure to follow your guide good sir! Btw anyone know what oversleeve did he used in this video?
When I bought the deck D-SD06, I was wondering only one weapon can be armored in a turn may be too slow...then the next day the spear is revealed and solve the problem
