Just finished our Block 3 Air Patch yesterday,

Eww, /gag. Sounds painful. Why block 3? That's not for 2 more months, lol.

because more or less all groups want to rush to the next block to feel special.......... and if you try to play standard {block 2} decks you get "oh why are you still playing those stupid/broken/old cards? It's been block 3 since worlds." *has been forced to block 3 or gets above sentance after playing/checking any standard block cards* **currently hates block 3, new nako support did not help either...**

Block 3 is godawful right now. It got a bit more manageable with set 11's release, but either way it's still pretty bad. I flat out refuse to play block 3 format right now.

Anyone that says "it's been block 3 since worlds" is flat out WRONG.

yea, try running mono life.... oh wait you cant... no win condition, unless you know stall for like 50 or so minutes by sitting on a pile of vitality gain foundations that depend on your opponent (and get committed out by said person) hell block 2 life can barely do anything since every resource either returns speed to printed/half of printed, and olcadamns mentoring gets rid of the only damage pump (that doesn't remove your kill condition aka attacks) and the damage reduction stuff, and the anti-keyword in hand cards getting rid of your attacks.

Why so much hate on block three?

At any rate, I haven't done an air event yet, much less even build an air deck.

because block 3 is a race to see who draws into their momentum generation and one or two kitty spikes (unless your character doesn't have those resources then your sortta screwed (unless you have some other big multiple/OTK since lots of the vitality gain makes long attack strings pointless).

the main reason I'm playing block 3 is because I figure I might as well get used to not having certain cards or characters, otherwise I'd be playing promo Alba + Arrogance. I pretty much hate legacy for the fact that Yoga Mastery and YWNE just make events not fun for me.

sucks that your group is like that though. they're totally wrong and you're allowed to play block 2 as standard until march <_<

well promo alba cycled as soon as set 11 hit (just like the two good nakorurus) its mostly one player... I built the new nako off of water, and he got in trouble from the store owner cus I played out a turn one day and he picks up a couple cards that I played and went "oh F#@!ing guy, copying my deck and its stratagies." (AKA staple water cards like chinese boxing, program malfunction, ayame's scarf, stained honor, ect.)

so I'm basically at a lose - lose situation, play standard {block 2} and get bitched at for each standard block card that is played/checked/removed from game, or get bitched at for "copying his decks"

Block 3 life has two kill conditions. One is Chaos Flare and the other is Yi-Shan.

Also, sorry your store owner is a ******. Sounds like a man in need of a good ***J. Talbain*** match or a round or two of I-Spin lockdowns. I've been complained at a few times at our store because I build so many decks I eventually stumble across people's ideas, and then add to the fact that I'm pretty much borrowing 99% of the cards for a deck, and I sometimes get yelled at for using a deck someone else built (especially if it's really annoying like Death/Order *** Gill).

Don't let him (or the rest of your group I guess) get to you. Just get even by playing the most evil decks you can possibly create demonio.gif

My playgroup is block 3 exclusive, and now we see the benefits of going block 3 only. We understand the meta very well now, and don't have to play catch up or wish that certain cards are in the format. Right now I feel the meta is very fair with the exception of a character (talbain). Agro has very good possibilities and so does control. So what if you can't play life, go play somethng that wins then...

Also, awsome that your store owner is nice . Sounds like a man in need of a good ***J. Talbain*** match or a round or two of I-Spin lockdowns.

fixed for ya. the 3 different stores owners are really good. the person who swore at me was another player, store owner scolded him for it

meh I put my current deck (rare Rera) up in the deck building forum got a reply, responded and nothing else happened... did a bit of changes, but if you have ideas for it feel free to add...
