Been playing Guardian since March-April, with the new Dash coming up, might consider "Mangle" as it's 4 where you can throw with a tunic and a blue to break their legs equipment, but "erase face" also works good with dash and with the new heroes~ Then again, Victor is the hero that's not up nor down, it's just that aggro decks are the rage rn, What's better than having the having card effects that can kill you!? LOL. I really wish you all the best in the coming PQ! May consistency wins you the crown and may you match up against Ninja, Aurora decks ALL the way!
Mangle is a card I’ve always been on the fence about but it definitely has a powerful ability in the current meta! I appreciate the good luck! Hoping for good results this weekend 🙂
Whats your thoughts on guardian mirror? Haven't had that matchup as of yet so im inexperience, would you keep titans fist into a mirror just so that augum plus COD would get you that early estate? Or would you run anothos for breakpoint value
The guardian mirror as a whole is very skill intensive and rewards tight play. The Victor mirror has a lot more variance, sadly. Clashing adds a lot of variance that I don't like. I personally like Anothos for the consistency. If you run Titan's Fist with Aegis and play all 3 GME plus winning a clash or two, you are getting major might value. The game doesn't always play out that way though and because of that I prefer the consistency of Anothos in the mirror.
I think Balance should main deck at this point. DIO very often will draw 2 cards at least one turn per game, and Aurora will as well withh CLV/gold/snatch/etc,
Yaay victor deck tech. Have you ever considered running 2 Pummels or even cutting them? As good as they are they make you lose clashes and only running 2 lets you bluff the 3rd one for the remainder of the game. Did you ever consider running Buckling Blow over Boulder Drop or do you value 3 cost over +1 power for clashes? You mentioned you didn't like Rouse the Ancients for a long time. What did you play instead? I've been considering cutting it because (while it wins against non attacks) it usually makes you lose clashes and I feel like the 2 block is a big price, especially in my local meta that currently has 2 DIOs and a Dori. With Visit Goldmane Estate in the early game is it better to play it to go up to 2 gold or pitch it? It feels bad playing it without creating mights but I think turning on your other estates and The Golden Son is more valuable. I noticed you switched out The Weakest Link for Erase Face a while ago. Since my local meta doesn't really have any lightning or earth hero do you think that Weakest Link would be better to keep in that slot? How do the cards compare into DIO? Is the 3 block of Weakest Link worth a bit weaker ability? As a side note on my way to wining my second armory last friday I managed to throw a 0 card 6 after full blocking DIO and winning 2 trounces one of which hit a Thunk and one a Wallop. I considered swinging back hard because I had a pummel in hand but after DIO presented lethal damage I was forced to full block and send back my Titan's fist for 6. I'm really enjoying Victor so thanks for making this deck tech :)
Playing 2 Pummels could be good. Losing clashes to Pummel is always a feels bad. I think Pummel might be too good to cut tbh. I was on Buckling Blow for a long time but switched to Boulder Drop when it became an aggro meta. I think the text on Boulder Drop is better than the +1 from Buckling Blow. I ran Blue Clash of Vigor over Rouse for a long time. Winning a Vigor for a potential 4 for 8 and potentially hitting a Golden Son is so good. When it comes to playing vs pitching Goldmane Estate, it really depends on the matchup tbh. A grindy matchup, I will pitch it. If I have one in hand to play against an aggro deck, I will just play it to see what my turn can look like. If your meta is a lot of DIO and not really any Lightning and Earth, then I would say The Weakest Link is fine. Blocking 3 is big but there is always a chance that The Weakest Link doesn't hit and Erase Face will always deny go again to Dash IO. Congrats on racking up the wins! I hope to hear about more soon 🙂
@@AggroBlaze96 Agreed I think may be a meta call I playtested this after the card guys a to z 90% of the time it’s a 3 block arms but the one time I needed to use the ability it won me the game adversely time I really could have gotten extra value out of gauntlets
You don't even really need boj vs kayo, I find it better to just run dominion so that estate is online from t0 so that it's harder for them to fridge your disruption early on. It can be hard to win clashes vs Kayo so starting with 2 gold right away is just too good.
Victor nation let's go
Víctor is back 🎉

Aurora doesn’t draw 2 cards in a turn consistently enough from my experience. Although, BoJ does seem good into DIO.

@@AggroBlaze96 Thanks for the help. I think you're right pummels are just too good to cut. I was just salty after losing 5 clashes in a DIO matchup.
@@mojeime3 That is a real feels bad, I bet that was frustrating.
Crater fist lets you keep tempo when u get an all blue hand demanding 3. Cards or armor on a blue 6 or better with cranial 4:12
Crater Fist has more utility than blocking like Gauntlets. I still think Gauntlets are better, most of the time.

I agree on it being a meta call, for sure.

I haven’t tried CoD into Kayo, that’s interesting. I’ll have to try this out!
Victor needs a new specialization: Horse Power.
The flavor would be too good!
Been saying this! I want a horse charge attack
