Card Talk With The Sack Boys

Heading back to the digital world Conor and Louis look through Digimon set 6 Double Diamond. Lamenting all the cool stuff this set can bring to the game if it could only get released, and free us of our pink knight overlords.

After a job forced hiatus the Sack boys have returned to cover all of what they have missed. This includes Overdress set 3, the new banlist, as well as changes to fighters regulations all of which spell interesting things for the game of Vanguard going forward.

After a slight break the boys are back to do some major catch up with Vanguard's sixth nation. Watch in Awe as Conor deals with temptation to buy into bind based game mechanics that he so much enjoyed during V. Afterward we return to the V-Premium booster where a lot of the cards seem kinda whelming but at least they all seem to draw a single card.

A day later then expected but the boys return for another episode of Card Talk. Today Conor and Andrew have an extended conversation about card design before we jump back into Overdress set 2 to see what new tools our favorite decks have to play with. All the while actively going out of our way to avoid talking about Monster Strike because that's all we've gotten for like 3 weeks make it stop.

Andrew goes away for another episode as the sackboys do their first episode of the newly biweekly schedule. Conor and Louis return to the digital world to discuss Digimon's 5th set which is full of Omnimon, Omnimon accessories, and a few other things like a meta defining pink knight who needs an errata.

After taking another break from recording (we might as well be biweekly at this point) the boys return to talk about all the new D-set 2 releases. This includes some brand new faces, as well as the return of some old, ancient, and very not young units that caused an outrage at their reveal. Time to see what they actually do.

After a few minute long mumblefest mostly pertaining to Records of Ragnarok the Sackboys go over everything the new premium has to offer in terms of reprints for the included clans. Some of them are pretty good others.......are not. Following that they talk about new reveals making Conor even more excited for the very existence of Bruce, all the while betraying his own common sense with his choice for springfest.

Conor takes a break this week as the rest of the boys discuss the things shown off in the latest Bushiroad strategy meeting. Along with a bunch of side tangents you have probably come to know and expect from us. Along with the return of some old friends some of us wish would have stayed gone just a little bit longer.

The Sackboys are back continuing on with their discussions on the ever growing line up of Touken Ranbu. Following this the boys cheerfully celebrate the return of one of the most beloved aspects of Vanguard that was sadly missing during the V era......the lore.

Touken Ranbu makes it's long awaited return to vanguard much to the Sackboys glee, showcasing what they will bring to the game in the new Overdress era. Aside from that we have all the new cards from the new festival collection and uh.......not a lot of the new cards are good sad to say.

Conor and Louis are back at it again for another wacky trip to the digital world. Join these who as they discuss set 4 of Digimon, and all the interesting new cards that set will bring. The answer is a lot of favorites for the two of them and the man, the myth, the legend Marcus Daimon which gets both of us hype.

Reveals are finishing up today on Card Talk as the Sackboys make their way down the final reveals of the first Overdress booster all the while asking question and answering them with further questions. It eventually comes to a point where Conor has to do deploy his stand King Crimson more frequently then is usually required much to his annoyance, and amusement of the others.

While Conor is away Louis ,and Andrew will play in this two man episode. Actually it's closer to a two and a half man because they are joined by the successor to a very old friend while talking about reveals for the last week. Also something about League of Legends which has the two of them very excited.

Another week another episode of three guys going on tangents wile talking about Vanguard.

They are however blown away by the new support Bruce has received, and now that man is ready to play some of the most violent sportsball of all time.

All four Sackboys are together again to as per usual have about thirty minutes rambling and around twenty minutes(at most) of actual card game discussion as the new subthemes of Dark States, and Keter Sanctuary are revealed. All the while the boys are still riding the high of Zorga so these new sub themes have a lot to live up to.
