What Happened to Stratoflight and Skyships?
This comment is being made after I saw your breakdown of the Prophetic Visions announcement. I mention that because at around *6:09* in that video, you discussed the number of new cards that could be in the set. And, actually, I wholeheartedly agree with everything you said from about 6:09 - 8:14 in that video as well (more time needs to be dedicated to each set, leaning heavily into reprints, etc.) I was fearful that the jump in the number of sets would lead to a severe hit in quality, and I unfortunately was right. I don't think I was the only one with these concerns either. With their release schedule you would think they were developing a TCG, a headspace that is NOT congruent with Keyforge's design philosophy in the slightest. Worst case scenario, GG truly does not understand Keyforge nor has a concrete plan for its future. Best case scenario, they let ÆS be a lesson that they (hopefully) learn from, and time the time Keyforge requires and deserves to ensure that it not only survives, but thrives. I feel so bad I missed the stream, because I agree with most everything you said and wanted to contribute to the discussion. As excited as I am for Prophetic Visions, the inconsistency of Æmber Skies and its lack of a true identity has left a bad taste in my mouth. You know something went wrong when the debut of a new house only has 2, 2!!!, cards you even care to see when you get that house's pod. AND they are severely overtuned at that. The consequences of having a smaller card pool are that decks are more consistent on the whole, yes, but even outside of Skyborn individual card power varies too widely. At least in my opinion. What we currently have as the set-specific mechanic (house enhancements) I feel can't truly be labeled as such as there is always a chance they could be implemented in future sets.Even within-set, I have several decks without house enhancements, and those decks don't even feel like their from ÆS. It's my sincere hope and expectation that GG be transparent about what transpired during ÆS's development (perhaps during KFC?), and that they not allow this kind of blunder to happen again. At the very least, they need to allot for *significantly* more time to develop each individual set and make a sincere effort to listen to fan and play-tester feedback.
@thedude_66 I completely agree with everything you said. For me personally, I think that we as consumers deserve to be notified when their is going to be a significant change in the final product. Especially if that change will result in a measurable difference in the quality/value of what we are purchasing. PARTICULARLY in a prepurchase environment, like crowdfunding campaigns. This one failure to communicate is, for me, the most troubling thing of all. It seems to signal that they either didn't think it was a big deal, or that they intentionally chose not to announce it because they knew it WAS a big deal and were afraid that sales would take a hit. Both are troubling, and in either case, the behavior shouldn't be repeated.
@@FlightlessPheasant Again, I wholeheartedly agree. The lack of communication on the whole is a bit worrisome, but the reluctance to communicate how the final product would be affected, most likely by changes that were still being made during the campaign, is particularly egregious. Apologies if my op sounded like a rant or a bit overzealous. Taking on a more Sanctum tone - as opposed to Redemption - it is my sincere hope that GG be more upfront with everything they are doing moving forward, especially pertaining to design decisions and the potential impacts of said decisions. I could excuse most of what I mentioned if they had made the effort to be transparent. On the health of the game as a whole, I'm fearful that the lack of communication will foster stubbornness and rigidity. Keyforge is a game that almost requires that the designers allow themselves to be lead by it at times (a la Teliga's flavor text) for the sake of making the best decisions. Recognize and understand the spirit of what the came was, keep and iterate on what worked in meaningful ways, and *take the time* to figure out what that looks like. To that end, I also sincerely hope that GG will lean into, and on, the community much more than they have. Take in feedback from others who have intimate knowledge about the game and want it to succeed as much as they do.
@thedude_66 Here here.
Ooooh! I love KFC! Especially the extra crispy. Sometimes i buy a whole bucket.
@@itsapittie 🤣
wish i had planned better this year. would have loved to be there to get all the cool creator cards plus keyforge of course
@@SpaceVSmatter It does seem like this one's gonna be a lot of fun!
First
@@itsapseudonym568 WOOT!
I also think that the “glimpse of the future” part is a confirmation that they’ll do anomalies again! I’m hoping that they’ll keep the pattern of releasing anomalies every 3 sets. Have you noticed any other patterns in the sets?
@@paulkevinegango671 Not so far, but I've got my eyes peeled for anything juicy.
I'm excited for this set, even with what feels like little info so far😅 I really like AS and ToC (Except I feel like Redline Rotation should be a rare, but that's just me😂) and it feels like they're kind of building something like a design momentum. Thank you, laying out info like the set sizes really puts things into clear view!
@@NileSings I try to help. 😁
I think one set every 9-12 months would be fine. At least until they are able to get enough retailers that they don't need to do crowd-funding. In the meantime, they should be putting a lot more effort into figuring out how to support and improve local OP.
@kevinc5895 I honestly don't mind the crowd funding, as long as it's not an excuse to not support retailers. Which, between the Summer Event and More Mutation being retailer exclusive, I feel like they aren't neglecting LGSs.
21 days is 3 weeks lol. Pretty excited for this set
@@itsapseudonym568 Yeah, I noticed that after posting. 🤣 Oops.
Good information, as usual.
@@itsapittie I try. 😁
First
@@babyfreeD So you are. 🤣
Going where no one has gone before
@@itsapseudonym568 Or where others know better than to try to go. 🤣
First! Ha!
@@itsapittie Indeed
Good to know. Finally. Slacker.
@itsapittie I know, right?
I do love KF adventures.
@@itsapseudonym568 Same
Still not a fan of tokens. I won’t be getting any of these decks
@@itsapseudonym568 That's fair. I like the mechanic just fine, but GG seems to like it quite a bit.
What do you not like about them?
@@NileSings I find them very swingy. Lots are really mediocre then there are a few that are broken.
Gosh, seems like you’re a little disappointed in this set.
@itsapseudonym568 A bit. Skyborn, in particular, is a bit underwhelming.
Good stuff!
@@itsapittie indeed
I agree that Gormangeist seems like a nightmare already, but I know certain decks ate it up at Vault Tours this year. Vault Assault is great! I would love to see the three of you play Vault Assault similar to your Keyraken live video!
@daveo8017 Honestly, that's a great idea!
Enjoyed the update and deck choice thoughts! I don't think you said how your third game went? How did the other players do? Any 3-0's? I agree Redline and Against all Flags do not need the aember pip.
@daveo8017 I was 2-1, Nick/Odensonnah was the only 3-0. He was playing a Treasure Island deck, and artifact control was scarce at our event.
I am a DoK Patreon subscriber so I can see The Orange Adventurer's actual preview SAS! It has an efficiency of 14 (96th percentile) and its overal SAS is 72 (90th percentile)!
@@NileSings WOW! That's not bad at all!
@@FlightlessPheasant Not at all!
The Gormengeist was already crazy hard. Vault assault sounds like fun tho. Ooo first comment🎉
@@itsapseudonym568 👍
Aember Skies is the least fun set since AoA. Skyborn is mostly bad, Brobnar is blah. The lack of creature control/board wipes is a terrible design choice.
@@jasonjanisewski78 They seem to have wanted a more targeted removal approach to creature control. It hasn't seemed to bad to me so far.
@@FlightlessPheasant I agree. The problem is that has made the Sealed experience poor since once you fall behind on board it is game over. Feeling like you just lost because they dropped 4 creatures on Turn 1 and you will never recover is a super feels bad. I sometimes feel sorry for opponents on TCO when I have WoE and see they have AS when I know my board will just spiral out of control while they are helpless to do anything.
@@jasonjanisewski78 Fair. I still haven't played AS against older sets much yet.
These are great, I've got years of keyforge to catch up on! Thank you
@@ummox You're welcome. 😁
Thank you for making these! I started playing this year and I've been going back through your lore series to learn more about the crucible. Thank you thank you!
I'm glad you enjoy them. 😁
Thanks for the update! My LGS doesn't do keyforge events anymore but I'd be willing to travel for a pre-release. Does anyone know if there's a list of home bases or LGS's that will have prerelease events? Also, have they said of Tokens of Change will get a pre-release event?
@@beckn8tor No word on Tokens of Change yet, but my gut tells me they probably won't do a prerelease for it.
I'm so happy sealed at Celebration won't be Grim Reminders😅
@@NileSings I don't know if we've gotten that announcement yet. But I'm hoping it will be Aember Skies.
Let’s get to the brass tacks… if Aember Skies is a lead singer, her outfit would def have brass tacks.
@itsapseudonym568 Yall are wild today! 🤣
Aember Skies? Isn't she the lead singer of Nuclear Wasteland?
@@itsapittie 🤣
You should change your name to "quick draw pheasant"
I do what I can. 🤣
4:12 Archon: "I'm so close to opening this vault! For the last key, I need to imbue it with... screams of agony and... a heart filled with joy?? How and where am I going to quickly find two such drastically different emo-" Dis Demon: *yo* The artwork for Library of the Damned came to mind during that part in your video. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
@@thedude_66 Thank you very much. 😁
Once again, thanks for the lore! Your video reminded me of the fan concept I thought of for when keyforge does a set wherein key colors mattered. I was thinking of what if there were other key colors besides blue, red, and yellow (gold). What if there are orange, green, purple, and grey (silver) keys? Similar to the colors of the archons in the card backs and you can either bring which of the selection you want or the archon card might indicate what you need to bring. But implementing it might be rather complicated as you are not sure which key colors your opponent will bring and a few of your card effects might not work on an oppenent that did not bring key colors that are referenced in your cards. Another implementation may be that some houses are boosted by certain key colors. And only your own cards are affected by the key colors you choose. But that's just that, I don't think it's possible to make a fan format this complex without making an entire set.
@paulkevinegango671 WOW, it seems like a cool idea! But yeah, as a fan creation, it would likely require a whole new card base.
@@FlightlessPheasantI just remembered the key idea when you said that each key is supposed to be unique and to forge a key, aember must be imbued with psychic resonance thus having the keys take characteristics from the archon that forged them. Going by this logic, I think it makes sense to have keys with the same colors as the archons.
Cool!
@@itsapittie Indeed
Lots of fun for today
@@itsapseudonym568 It's a good day. 😁
Love Lore Bites! Watching while using a pen knife shaped Key to open a corrugated box shaped Vault from Ghost Galaxy....
@@daveo8017 🤣
Nice, the YT algorithm must have removed my comment... please check because it's important. Thanx a lot...
@@Papierzeit Will do.
@@FlightlessPheasant thanx a lot :)
More Martian Civil War🎉
Indeed!
The Rebels were victorious at my store! I went undefeated and won a Floomf as well as a store marked deck! My Rebel pod had Rebels, the Nautillixian, and a bunch of creatures with ready and use abilities. Brobnar and Sanctum backed up the ready and fight mentality, while providing token spam and a way to cash in with double Membership Drive. Never got to use the big robot, but the little Rebels got out of hand every game. We had a blast!
@@ketzerapathetic1414 That's awesome to hear! I'm glad people seem to be enjoying the story event!
I’m excited about the creator cards!
@@itsapseudonym568 Same! 🤣
I enjoyed the event as well. I played against your deck and it was quite effective
@itsapseudonym568 I liked it, it was very good.
I read that GG plans to announce the Martian Civil War results at KFC. I really enjoyed my first event at Voss Media! It was great to play in person with you again, and I really enjoyed our third game! I feel pretty good that it was a fairly close game, especially now I know the details of your deck! It was great to see KeyForge friends at the event from all over Central and Southern MI!
@daveo8017 It was great to see you as well, Dave. It's always a special privilege to get to play with you.
Cool art! I like the idea
AceofKeys did an awesome job.
What a useful resource! It can do anything you believe it can do. If you wish upon a star your dreams come true 🤩
@@itsapseudonym568 Aember is crazy useful. The Architects are really looking out for us.
Not including all the tokens in the starter set would be a disservice to the people who buy them. I’d find it very frustrating if I bought a starter set then immediately needed to get more tokens.
@@itsapseudonym568 Yeah, that would be very frustrating.
Love those playmats!
@@itsapseudonym568 Same
Thought I’d watch this all the way through after playing the summer event. Something interrupted me the first time I tried to watch it
@@itsapseudonym568 That happens to me all the time. 🤣
“Discourse in the community” a great phrase
@@itsapseudonym568 👍
Looks cool! I never realized each set had so few houses in it🤔
@@itsapseudonym568 Yep, 7 is standard.
Any chance they will do both sanctum and redemption?
@itsapseudonym568 If they did, it would be the first set to ever have 8 houses, which might be cool.
Has anyone in the US gotten shipping notices yet?
@@beckn8tor Not that I've heard.
