I've been looking for a themed pirate deck. Great suggestions!
@@Bastion97 thanks!
Nice mat & proxy cards. Definitely neat
Honestly great build I’m gonna have to try it out
If you do I'd love to hear your thoughts once you've played it! 😀
I played against a pirate deck in my first tournament. Despite losing, I enjoyed watching it go to work!
Oh wow, not something you see too.often, what were you playing?
The Merlin playmat is epic! A pirate deck!!! Excellent!!! Thank you for sharing your decks and the details pertaining to deck building and their mechanics!
My pleasure, I'm really happy you enjoyed it!
I truly enjoy the content.. and thank you for your time in making content for us all to view.. and thank you for the opportunity to see this great deck.. not to mention the great give away as well.. keep up the great work.
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch & comment, I hope we make more great stuff you enjoy going forward also!
I had a different take on the pirate deck, but I am liking this deck list a lot!
This is great! My daughter really wants to create her own custom pirate deck and this has given a lot of inspiration! Thank you for another great video! 😊
My pleasure, I hope she enjoys it! If you cut the beasts it's a pretty affordable build for sure.
Thanks for the deck breakdown and doing giveaways for the community!
My pleasure, thanks so much for watching & commenting! 😀
Thanks for making these videos! I just dove into the world of Lorcana and I must say I’m addicted. I’m excited to learn more from your videos! :)
It is quite addicting, same thing definitely happened to me haha. We have invested in playsets of everything so sky's the limit!
Had my first TCG tournament last Saturday! Gimme that mat 😂 need to show off your work for more subscribers 😉
Lol, once the giveaway is complete I will be uploading the file to for all tier 2 patreon members. $10 a month gets you access to all currently available files & if you remain subscribed new ones when they become available. This will include playmat designs as well as proxy designs...
But, in the interim, good luck on the giveaway!
Pirates seems like a fun archetype to run
It really is super fun it's just not the best in the current meta in my experience. Who knows what they'll add next set to really push it over the top though. I'd like to see them support it more since it's really the only deck right now that is super location focused.
Thanks for the video. Some great info!
Thanks for commenting & watching!
as a pirate main i love the archetype. think pirates are definitely competitive just very underestimated!
and i would LOVE to have an autographed fake enchanted beast to keep as like a memorabilia thing
Well I definitely appreciate that. So far the feedback around those is positive so definitely considering giving some away! 😀
This mat is amazing to thank you for the chance!!! Can't wait to win it and show it off in May. Love the video and showing off the pirates.
Thanks so much, hopefully you'll dig some of the other content also. Good luck on the giveaway! If you don't get lucky this time don't fret, many more to come!
This is my new deck goal, I've been wanting to play something themed and fun while also being strong! Love this type of content from you!
Hey, thanks so much, really hope you enjoy the deck. I've definitely got more ideas for decks so there will be more coming soon!
I love Pirates with John Silver!
Looks like a fun deck to build/play - I wonder how close it is to the one that Ryan Miller has talked about before in interviews - that he had built and likes to play.
Idk 🤷♂️ I'll have to check him out, I watch a few lorcana youtubers but not familiar with that person. If you try it out I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Gonna have to try it out!
Love to hear your thoughts if you do!
Just subscribed and just getting into Lorcana deck building
Oh thats awesome, I love deckbuilding for this game. Magic has become absurd in recent years for me.
I might need to place an order on TCG this deck looks like a ton of fun
The deck is VERY fun & I'd love to hear about your experience if you try it!
Rad! I just subscribed. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos. I look forward to watching along as the channel grows. Cheers!
Thank you so much, that means more to us than you know! Hope we continue to make good content for you & you'll always share your opinion!
I love the deck build. Looks like fun. Love the mat too. Keep the great content coming.
Thanks so much, we most definitely will!
I really like the beast tragic hero proxy cards! Its some great art, and I understand why you cant sell, but I would like a play set just to have in deck when playing around with others.
Well, good news, due to the outpouring of support I will be giving a set away in the next video. Everyone who entered by commenting will have a shot at them. Once the giveaway is complete all the art will be uploaded for tier 2 patreon members also.
Those beast proxies are amazing!!! I love pirates but don't think their time in the meta is quite at hand
Thanks so much, yeah I'd agree for the most part. If the deck curves out well it can be pretty overwhelming for the opponent but then there's also games where you draw 3 jolly Roger's you don't need lol.
Love the deck and playmat. If you don't mind me asking where did you get the playmat
I made it, we actually gave two if them already. If you're interested in the file to print one it's available on our patreon.
Thanks for the video, those mats are awesome.
I love the pirate deck you do a really good job at explaining the decks I can’t wait to watch more of your content. My husband would love those proxy’s and a chance at that amazing playmat I love mim dragon and Merlin is the best
Hey, thanks so much for that feedback. Got another gameplay video coming along with some more deck breakdowns very soon! Good luck on this giveaway & the future ones!
That Mim/Merlin playmat is amazing!! The GOAT if you will 😉
Silver John Silver seems real good to me
When he comes down with some locations he can absolutely devestate the game.
I was working on a pirate deck too and it was similar to yours. Also I feel like it would be better if you add the deck list from dream born.Keep on making these videos.
Thanks so much, just do clarify, do you mean I should add a link to the deck in the comments? Really appreciate you watching and the feedback!
You can add a link in your description or pin a comment with the link.
I’m loving r/s pirates! So strong. Also, those beast proxies are amazing. And thank you for doing the mat giveaway, so excited for a chance to win one because it looks incredible!
Hey, thanks so much for all the compliments, it's my pleasure, more to come! Thanks so much for tuning in & checking out the profile!
Can't wait to win one of those sick mats! 😂
Make sure you're getting all those entries in! :) Good luck!
Can’t wait to see this pirate deck!! I’m new to deck building so these videos are so helpful!
This is super similar to my husbands pirate deck! He loves have the pirates all party on the Jolly Roger!
That's awesome, your husband must be a pretty cool dude! 😎
Awesome deck tech! Pirates is a fun archetype that can be underestimated and steal some games.
Thanks so much, I couldn't agree more, it's always hilarious to me when John Silver starts really putting in work.
cool build! maybe a grab your sword or two for all them singers in the deck?
Thank you for keeping family friendly content.
Always, even when we slip up we donald duck quack it out 😆 we do our best though!
As having a pirate persona for cons, I loveeeee this video ♥️ thank you so much for making this video 🎉
My pleasure! Sounds like you're pretty cool so the compliment means that much more!
Gonna have to show this to my gf. She was looking to make such a deck. :)
I'd love to hear your/her thoughts on it if/when that happens!
@@thenerdcaveyt Yeah, it's gonna take a while. We need to go shopping for some of the cards. That's what happens when you play the same color! :p
@lorddonovan6755 oh yeah that is a struggle for sure. I'm building decks for myself & John so I have a similar issue.
Great video. Very helpful :)
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀
So much fun to watch!! Both the deck play and you!
I've been trying to make pirates work since the start of Set 3, if steel had better locations, the deck would be even better 💪
Keep up the good work
Thanks so much, that's the plan!
This looks like a sick deck! I'd love to try it if I had more sad beasts. Thanks for the breakdown
That's why I tried to offer some alternative to them for it to still be good but the deck definitely feels better with at least 2. I know a lot of people don't have a set, we consider ourselves very fortunate to have access to the cards we do.
Fantastic alternative deck , great job .
Thanks so much, I like to think of stuff that's not the obvious meta decks. Deckbuilding is one of my favorite parts of the game. I was one of the early ones on the pinnochio rafiki tech with R/A & now everyone & their mom is running it. 😆 🤣
I love that play Matt
Very cool deck. Been trying it on Pixelborn and this is probably my favorite currently. I am missing a lot of cards but have pushed them all to the top of my wish list. Fun factor is more important than having ‘the best’ deck for me, but this one is surprisingly good and you still get the fun pirate theme.
I’d love to see your take on a villain deck at some point. My Amber Amethyst villain deck is my labor of love currently and I am working on optimizing it.
We did do an amber amethyst aggro build video. John was previously playing it with the queen that boosts villians quest power but we cut her ultimately. I could definitely try my hand at putting something together one of these days.
Just brewed up a Sapphire steel deck I'm enjoying that I'll be sharing soon most likely. Appreciate the idea though, I have deck adhd sometimes haha.
Hope you continue to enjoy the pirate build, if I was going to tweak anything based on meta it would probably be dropping a red hook & the 2 jim hawkins for more direct removal if needed.
@@thenerdcaveyt Oh Nice! I missed that one. Just glanced at the card list. Mine is more of a mid-game deck (and more villain focused), so I'll have to watch your full breakdown and try it to see which I like better. Thanks!
@@chrislandon4629 I'd love to hear what your experience is with it if you do. 😀
Pirates, rawr!
Rawr indeed Nik...rawr indeed!
What's crazy is I was literally brewing something like this...thanks for the video!
My pleasure! It's like they say, great minds think alike! 😉
I love a good themed deck! Thanks
My pleasure, great username! 😀
The beast proxys are looking sick🫨
Also, really cool deck profile. I feel like the locations from Set 3 really add new layers and especially the Jolly Roger seems really good with the pirate theme
Hey, thanks so much for the compliments! Locations have definitely shaken up the game for the better & made more decks viable which is awesome. I will say Jolly Roger is basically unplayable without having lots of pirates... but for this deck it's the GOAT. haha
@@thenerdcaveyt yeah, Jolly Roger ist literally unplayable in any other Deck :D
But if you see it that way this it what keeps most cards balanced (at least mostly)
Because you cant throw them into everything
We are just getting into building decks and wanted to build a pirate deck! This is so helpful :)
I'm really happy you enjoyed it, if you don't have the beasts you could play something like storm rage on to help a bit with the card draw!
I don’t have any beasts so I’ll have to try that. Thank you!
The playmat 😍
I’m really digging the Merlin/Mim playmat. Maybe I’ll give the Amethyst/Ruby bounce package a try 😁
Amethyst Ruby is awesome, there's a lot of good decks these days but I'm definitely leaning that way for set championships.
Here for the mat!!
Man I love the beast!
Beast is a beast 💪 😆 🤣
The beast proxy is awesome
Love the playmat!
I am new to TCGs what is your recommendations for card storage, sleeves, and organization of lorcana?
I've been playing a pirates deck focused more on challenging with Queen of Hearts and Shere Khan. It's pretty fun! It doesn't run bayou because 3 will power is just too low to stay on the board, but it pretty much runs all the other locations, along with John silver and Jim Hawkins.
I like this version of the deck. I’ll be checking it out in lab. I definitely feel the pain of only having one play set of sad beasts.
It's 4 more sad beasts than a lot of people so I try not to gripe too much about it haha. I'd love to hear your exp with it if you try it!
AWESOME
Yar, har, fiddle dee dee! I am a pirate!
Ain't that the truth! XD
Ah good old pirates love the build!
Thanks so much, I try to put a good amount of thought into my decks & they typically go through multiple versions before I settle. 😀
This deck looks like a ton of fun!
When it curves out right its a great time! If you try it I'd love to hear about your experience with it.
Happy to follow!
❤ love it!!
Hey, thanks so much! Great screen name haha!
Just subscribed 💪🏻🔥🔥
Hey thanks so much, hope you're enjoying it, good luck on this giveaway & those to come!
Awesome deck!
Came from FB post on Central Florida TCG page!!
I would love a set of those beast just because.
I can dig this
Love the vids brotha!
Thanks so much!
I think I will always have steel in my decks. Just too good in my opinion.
The amount of people playing steel right now is the reason I probably won't play mufasa for set championships haha.
Going to start playing this now
I'd love to hear your thoughts after you give it a try!
Awesome deck profile
Thanks for the video and the chance to win
Cool play mat where can I buy one 😢
They are not currently available for purchase but the good news is if you stick around you could win one now or maybe even in the future!
This seems like a good deck for captain hooks rapier. Have you play tested it with it?
This mat is epic!! ❤
Nice mat. Subscribed 😊
Cool mat!
Thanks so much, hopefully the deck was also cool! haha
Cool!
I am new to this game
Well I hope to do some more deck building fundamentals videos & gameplay very soon. Hopefully I can help you learn to play with the greats! 😀
@@thenerdcaveyt I am still trying to figure out how to build a deck.
@@Tami_winn I'm sure you'll be building awesome decks in no time!
Pirates!
Good, but not quite meta competitive, maybe with some cards from the next set.
MATT ME DOOOOD!!
Why teeth over ba-boom?? I dont see a benefit of teeth
Ba-boom could definitely also be good, the biggest benefit with teeth is the ability to sing it & if you have john with a couple locations you can actually do it without taking damage on your guy. Since the deck doesn't draw too much early singing can help free up some ink to get card draw going.
Oh right, i keep forgetting that teeth is a song 😅. Thx for the quick answer 🙂
Here for the mat!!
