Thanks for the feedback! I kind of want to avoid showing the list at the start honestly as I think it will impact retention overall, especially as this is the second video from the event. Perhaps I can try to include decks at the end moving forward? Then there is the option to skip to that part & then watch video if you desire idk. I will have a think about it!
at 21:50 when commenting about the snake questing. He would lose the snake for 3 dmg on the Sisu + 2 lore, but more importantly we would be EXTREMELY vulnerable to castle. He would have no board and 4 ink against a castle and that would probably be GG, since you could Be king + put Sisu on the castle on the following turn and only then he would be able to Maui which would not even kill the castle
On your Bucky video, please talk about your thoughts on brooms vs Maleficent in that match up specifically. Mostly because brooms are more removable by steel which makes me lean towards Maleficent with the auto card draw.
Loving these videos man, keep em coming! Really interesting Ruby 1 cost inkable card coming in set 5. "Exert - Chosen character gets +1 damage this turn." Which means you can 1 shot a castle with Maui for the rest of the match. Also counts as another item for Saphire/ruby, thoughts?
How do you feel about the R/A with the Jim Hawkins? I’m seeing a lot of fellow R/A players running this to drop aggressive locations. Nice vid as always!
BUCKY IS THE NEXT VIDEO ;) I am unsure on Pan. I would like to try without it but it might still be the best way! It is one of the most flexible slots for sure
Watching this videos also made me hate malefiz 3 drop 😅. I'am also happy with my 9 one Drops in R/A (+1 malefiz). Still missing the "pen and paper" at the end of the video 😂
I think you are too hard on Maleficent she’s a draw and a potential draw 2 with friend if she can stay on board which a majority of the time she does. I’ve tried brooms with Maleficent and it’s fun drawing 2 cards lol. Or Broom with Rabbit.
Brooms represent the potential of card draw. Maleficent represents card draw. Wait until you have broom with only snakes or foxes and nothing else on the board and it will magnify that it’s potential only. Great video though. I’m a RA player that doesn’t play the brooms. Also Peter Pan is very good in several matchups to keep early lore questers in check in addition to the obvious of Floodborn Diablo. Lastly you can’t draw with Broom and bounce it back to hand to play again for card draw.
To be clear, I can absolutely see why people play Maleficent 3 drop! It's a solid card but just never makes for the cut for me! I view Brooms & Chernabogs as near auto-include when I play Amethyst & need a really strong reason not to play them! They are the easiest cards to cut but i think it's a mistake to do so
@@Xoulrath_ but the aggressiv option on brooms and chernabogs and the lore gain outweight the risk. Furtheremore it takes a lot of knowlegde and skill to know when to play and quest with this cards and when to draw with them. And as you can see in this video it works out pretty well in the mirror cause speci has that skill... coming back to your question - dont you think its a "slow down" for the opponent if he spends higher resources to take out a one cost charakter? I often like to see to put my opponent in such an awkward decission.
@@MarsiDarsi09 dude, stop blowing smoke up speci's ass. It's a subpar play when chosen OVER Maleficent. You seem to forget that there are cards that can wipe the board. Then your Followers and Brooms get nothing for you. That's WHY Mal is BETTER. She ALWAYS gets you the card no matter what your opponent might do. It's for that same reason that Rabbit is better than Mal; he will get you two cards no matter what your opponents do. Now, I'm not saying at all that Followers or the 1 drop Broom are bad cards. I've got an Amb/Ame build that currently runs a set of Followers. It's great for some early lore gain, and then when the opponent drops a character that could trade, I cash in for the draw. The Broom is fine, but if you aren't playing a character, then it's useless. Maybe there is a valid reason for not playing a character that turn. Now you've committed two cards to the board to draw a single card, when you could have simply played a Maleficent to begin with. Followers is a great card in the right deck. I've got a playset of them in the deck already mentioned, as well as an Ame/Sap deck. However, both of those decks also run Maleficent AND Rabbit. What Followers does is provide an early answer against aggro decks to keep them in check, while trading in for card draw when you don't need them anymore. It's a great card for midrange and control decks, and it's worked well for me in my current aggro build, but it is NOT a replacement for Mal. It IS complimentary to her though. There is simply.no circumstance in which I would run Followers and not also be running Mal and Rabbit.
"Hey speci how are you?" "I HATE maleficent 3 drop! I HATE HER!" "Yeah I'm doing good too."
But seriously awesome vid.
Awesome in-depth commentary, I would love a quick 1min intro with your list on screen to help us follow along!

@@SpeciLorcana yeah maybe a mention that list can be found at the end is also handy!

Been watching your videos a while and the thing i love most is the hate on specific cards. Makes me chuckle and influences my decisions too!

Absolutely love these break downs
Awesome video! Thank you for your hard work and sharing!
It’s crazy because out of nowhere red purple seems to be the deck to beat maybe neck in neck with green steel
Love ur videos dude. Thats what inspired me to start making lorcana gameplay videos
Who's that absolute lad in the England shirt 🤔

But will you be in Dallas is the question?
You sold me on broom over 3 drop mal.

Now we didnt make it to the bucky match up but after its all said and done does the pans stick or still a swap out?
BUCKY IS THE NEXT VIDEO ;)
I am unsure on Pan. I would like to try without it but it might still be the best way! It is one of the most flexible slots for sure

Nice win.
Question. Do you think Goat and/or Maui will be change like bucky
Nope!
No, because they can be interacted with.

@@SpeciLorcanaso you give your opponent the opportunity to remove your card draw, before you get the card draw? 😂

@@Xoulrath_ damn you must be pretty mad. Sounds like someone swings the broom's behind you.
