I remember I tried playing by myself when i first got into the game, after like 5 minutes i got a huge headache lol, i think im good enough to try again and not let that happen now, great video as always
I call it the honor system. Been doing it for 25 years. Solo Play, to see your and the opps decks strengths/weaknesses has worked extremely well for a very long time, since back long before we had sim and other online ccg tools. The channel is great my dude keep up the hard work!
Something I learnt was playing different deck's every week for locals was fun however you won't win because working full time plus putting time to master a deck in a week is near impossible so when I played a deck 3 weeks in a row i started winning locals
I always thought that playing alone with 2 decks was a bit strange even if I did it a few times. The fact that you say is good thing makes me want to do it more than using ranked games in the sim
I am aware and want to make practice work for not only card games, but studying and other things in life but it always is so hard to put into practice. Do you have any suggestions on ways I can set habits of practice?
Really amazing content here, especially for new players or new competitive players wanting to improve skillsets. Though, I will disagree on grinding games being bad. You did touch on it, and I agree quality > quantity due to bad habits, but, proper grinding, can be extremely helpful, especially at the beginning of a meta. But this is definitely for more experienced players, players who recognize their bad habits and adjust them, etc, but I do think grinding can be a very useful tool.
I also find learning more from watching videos of people playing than from playing on the sim idk why tho. Like on the sim I see how opponents play and compare that to the videos of high level players from regionals etc. and i know exactly what my opponent does wrong. So it doesnt feel gratifying to win knowing that if that was a serious match i probably wouldnt have that tempo i get from their mistakes. Also, could you make a video on how to beat nami? I just cant wrap my head around this deck. And as always ty for the video
Regarding the open-hand two player practice, do you actively abuse the fact that you can see the hand? E.g. opponent has no 2ks so I only swing 6k, or do you play how you would normally play?
You would play normally, just taking for account answers the opponent can have. In a real game you can't know if the opponent has no 2ks unless they gave a tell, so you want to simulate a game that's close to real, just without mistakes to the scope of the knowledge you are given. 3 Player practice mends this a bit it this feels awkward
can you show case starter deck 21 when it comes out? I would like to see what additions are coming for pluffy or purple black luffy with that starter deck. and how we can improve with both those decks. if it is worth while.
as a person who has played every single leader in the game for a few hundred to a few thousand hours like on some meta decks i like, i feel like practicing your opponents deck is the best thing you can possibly do in this card game, and make sure to study every single way the deck can be built, ive won countless games because i knew for a fact that they couldnt defend or get out of what i was doing, or that i could make an entire plan because i know whats in their hand, ive even been able to guess my opponents hand and every draw a few matches, and one time i guessed my opponents exact hand and his next draw and then search and he auto conceded and i guessed his exact life i never saw him come back to the card shop after that, it was a zoro mirror and i had just practiced the deck for a month and a half every day for 15 hours straight to know what i wanted to buy, i had been guessing my own hand to help my mulligans but i never expected to guess someone elses so perfectly
The card holders are actually makeup stands from a dollar store here in Tokyo. Not sure where you'd be able to find them overseas, but just be creative!
How would one simulate a game situation with the standard opponent board? For example I could set up BY Luffy Board with double sabo, 9k Leader, 4 cards in hand. But how do I set up my side? I cant possible know how my board, hand and trash would look like.
instructions unclear, just played 200 games of unraked sim changed decks 23 times, currently 3-37 (they were byes) at locals and quitting the game until next set release
The worst thing about getting good is to know that your favorite deck is not good.
This right here
Just play your favorite deck better than they play meta decks. Easy.

Facts keep it up Kai

Man, this video was really well done in so many ways. Props to you 💯
nah i never knew how much i needed this channel
Felt like I inherently knew some of these pieces of advice, but it was helpful hearing it be articulated!
Interested in that GUta tournament!

Hey man, just discovered your channel last week while learning one piece. Love such indepth videos containing such deep train of thought 🎉
Keep it up!
Great vid man! Your own patreon when?
I just goldfish a bunch of different decks, but I do want to have another table set up so I can test by myself great vid. keep it up
I used to grind solo testing constantly when I played Vanguard. I do it with One Piece too but not nearly as much.

Mic sounds a bit better from your last videos. Good job making the adjustments for your viewers
Great Vid! Where did you get the playmat in the skit?
Looking forward for op10 testing with my boy ussop

nice video
What about the simulator? Would like to see how you deck build and experiment decks on the sinulator
can you show case starter deck 21 when it comes out? I would like to see what additions are coming for pluffy or purple black luffy with that starter deck. and how we can improve with both those decks. if it is worth while.
sure thing. I'll definitely look into it when the cardlist is shown

@@axe2307 ahh, i forgot i learned that thanks for reminding me
Can you please tell me where the artwork from your playmat is?
Yooo nice video 😊
can you let me know where to get those transparent cardholders? can’t find them…
The card holders are actually makeup stands from a dollar store here in Tokyo. Not sure where you'd be able to find them overseas, but just be creative!

Can you link the Image you have on your Rebecca playmat? I wanna make it my wallpaper screen thank you!
that intro doe XD
I always let my favourite deck win but I’ve gotten better at actually trying to beat myself now…. Uhhhh not in that way

Where did you get the playmat? =)
The Rebecca one I drew. The colorful one is by SowSow
@@ikailakai oh wow! Would have loved to get a Rebecca playmat! It looks absolutely amazing!
Practice? We talkin about practice??!!?
"Not a game, not a game! But practice?!!"
Whenever i would like to play zoro, I die 💀
What is your skin care routine, bro?

It happens man don't worry, I'll see you next set brother

Also, another pro tip. Don't take the yellow or black matchup seriously. The colors are just way more broken and so far out of tune in the game 👍
