Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 03/05/2026First draft for Dreamlike Oceans. Honestly shocked this went 3-0, feels like I was a card or two away from being amazing. Usually don’t like drafting wind but this set has just enough to be not a dead element. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 26/04/20263-1 finish - last game was a loss against wind MBM, didn’t draw great, opponent did. Super fun prerelease though. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 26/04/2026Currently 2-0, funny thing is that my MBM pulls were crazy good and I’m not sure they’d be better than what I’m playing. 100
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 26/04/2026First prerelease - made it a personal challenge to not play MBM given how dominant the deck is in limited… of course my MBM pulls were insane. Still very happy with the deck - will post results and picture after. 000
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 23/03/2026I’m really excited for the new set but it sounds like the sealed/limited format is a complete blunder. Basically, it seems as though MBM should have been a starter deck, had its rarities moved around or been split across two sets. Really unfortunate. 000
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 06/03/2026I really enjoy Resident Evils… it’s genuinely impressive how bad I am at them. I really don’t handle the tension all that well haha. 000
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 06/03/2026I’m really excited for the upcoming season, if a bit nervous that this is the first time in 2 years where I feel like I don’t have a “default” deck thanks to the bans. Really hard to say goodbye to a deck that’s done so much for me it feels like. 100
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 02/03/2026Heck of a day for FFTCG discussion lol. Generally, I think the game was in a fine spot but I understand why action was taken and pretty much every card was deserving. I wish Lasswell and GigaWoL and Taivas got checked as well… I’ll talk about it in a video later. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 21/02/2026I started replaying KH2 a bit on PC since I picked up a PC handheld. Finally kinda working my way through that level 1 Crit playthrough. … admittedly, the story in KH2 just isn’t very good. It’s convoluted for no real gain, and follows rule of cool to its own detriment. 130
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 21/02/2026Of the new cards, Rydia is stunning art but I don’t know if she’s worth the 5 CP, Ulmia is incredible, one of the best cards Lightning has ever gotten and Lightning Prerelease is maybe one of the most broken cards they’ve ever printed. Reallllly hope that one doesn’t become a problem. 030
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 26/01/2026That’s damn fun, NGL. Really does feel like a mix of TWEWY and RE. Dunno if I’m excited for anything story wise but gameplay has my interest. 020
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 23/01/2026I would like to say, whoever at Retro decided that Time Attacks in Tropical Freeze don’t need you to input reset after a death made them a million times better. It’s so frustrating to time attack Returns. Also, Dixie makes Returns sooooooo much better it’s not even funny. 020
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 21/01/2026Fuck me - I skipped this and now they back ported Dixie - my all time favorite platformer character to it? Holy shit. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 19/01/2026I need to play the Pragmata demo. I’ve never seen a game give off this heavy of TWEWY vibes with its combat. If it’s actually TWEWY X RE4 in gameplay… that’s a heck of a combo to pull off. 020
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 13/01/2026I genuinely do not understand how crypto rug pulls work. Or continue to work. Surely everyone that could consider them at this point knows what a rug pull is and backs away? Where does the money continue to come from on them to this degree? 000
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 11/01/2026Finished Prime 4. Honestly… I really liked it. It’s got a few issues for sure but it kept me hooked and playing from beginning to end which is a first for a Metroid game. 030
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 02/01/2026It’s really weird - I’ve said for a long time that I think Metroid Prime is an absolute masterpiece that I have bounced off of 3 times and have no interest in playing… and somehow Metroid Prime 4 actually managed to hook me. It’s not perfect at all but it’s the first Metroid I’ve gotten this far on. 010
Reposted by Ghoul02AeonFrodo @aeonfrodo.bsky.social · 04/12/2025So me and @ghoul02.bsky.social are in Japan right now having a blast. Yesterday we went to Disney Sea Tokyo Theme Park, and today we got all these games and some stuff related to it 1181
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 13/11/2025Prerelease no. 2 - actually really proud of this build. Had some nice pulls but I think the single summoner and Bard to enable Locke and WoL LB were standouts. Love when you can do some unique deck building in limited. 020
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 09/11/2025Prerelease deck number 1 - ended 2-1. I think I generally have a very strong deck. I probably needed more backups, but I didn’t have them in Fire or Ice sadly. Still, I think I did decently. No Raijin - I think the defining card of the prerelease, especially paired with Fujins. 110
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 31/10/2025It sucks being a fan of TCGs and wanting to consider branching out and then seeing stuff like this… sure, 18 boxes for a playset of every card is good and normal and healthy. It’s not even egregious compared to other games, it just sucks for everyone. 100

Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 24/08/20252nd place at Materia Cup Gold Coast. So close to that elusive worlds invite. I’ll have to earn it at the Continental Championship. 060
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 21/08/2025Genuinely insanely happy at the new set being announced. Maybe it’s me being a Debbie downer but there is no guarantee that the game will ever continue past any world championships. This pretty much confirms that I’ll be playing at events in 2026. Trying to not take any events for granted. :) 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 20/08/2025This is the least confident I’ve been going to an event in years. :/ I think there are multiple decks that are good and that I’m good with - which one is the one that gets me the most likely to win I have no clue. 030
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 15/07/2025Kinda cool of Master Duel Master Chef to be a bit of a trip down memory lane. Reminds me of my favorite TCG deck of all time in Pascal Kihm’s Demise Sky Striker which is just an incredible deck and such a neat deck for the format. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Man… OCE doesn’t really have any more events for FF until the next set fully releases. Actually really unfortunate, feels like I had one bad weekend and don’t get another chance for another month and a half. :/ 000
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 28/06/2025Materia Cup thread: 0-1 Vs Paul (Cat 4 Yuna/Rydia): 🎲✅ Game: ❌ Early Totto did exactly what was needed and reset the board state. Lots of gas in the deck, proceeded to draw dead the next few rounds into bleeding out. Frustrating - game was winnable if I see any good cards after the board wipe. 100
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 07/06/2025First competitive season win was the Seymour BGBG LQ - I took Leo this time. Deck is really strong and quite fun to play… although still very degenerate. I didn’t realize until now how much the LB deck helps the strategy. 130
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 07/06/2025Australia doesn’t even know how to spell tire. 2 different spellings on the same sign. 020
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 05/06/2025Huh… this is actually really, really cool. Never expected the FF Magic crossover to actually acknowledge FFTCG’s existence. Going to be really funny when Magic players hold these and realize how amazing FF’s cardboard and print quality is. 174
Reposted by Ghoul02GK @ghostkumo.bsky.social · 29/05/2025Just a damn good character design too, communicates so much about her from how she fights to her personality, her having a relatively stoic demeanor but they gave her a cute little tail ribbon to show a touch of a softer side No wonder the character endures perhaps more than Square expected lol 0223
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 28/05/2025Yeah, this is a GOAT format for me I think. Maybe the best since Opus 16 but even back then, I don’t think we had the deck diversity that we have now. There are *sooooo* many decks that can win events right now it’s wild. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 21/05/2025I love this organization. So proud to have a small part in this over the last 10 years. 090
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 20/05/2025I know I say it every time but Master Duel is allergic to making real positive changes to their game. Awesome, we put Maiden to 2 and we’re still refusing to do anything about Snake Eyes or Appo or Curious. Is it that hard to even accidentally get a proper ban list? 000
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Wow. Square with a new one - cancel the mobile game *before* you release it. Honestly, hopefully is a good thing 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Just spent 3 hours doing a practical test for a job interview. Fingers crossed on it. 020
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 11/05/2025Lost in top 4 of my first 2025 #FFTCG LQ with mono-ice Chaos/Ark. Matchups: Earth/Wind Retainer: W Rydia/Golbez: W Refia Control: W Water/Lightning Crystal/Yuna: L 2nd after Swiss, cut to 8: Refia Control: WLW Water/Fire Warriors: LL Deck is absolutely fantastic - would run again. 050
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 10/05/2025There’s apparently just a rule in FFTCG where if you’re the world champion, you just have the Mandate of Heaven. Very exciting to see Hara continue to dominate the game in Japan. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 10/05/2025First #FFTCG LQ in Victoria is tomorrow - I’m so excited to be able to play competitive again. I think I’m going to set a goal of 7 LAs, 7 different decks taken to them. Should be a lot of fun. 150
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 06/05/2025Genuinely might be a GOAT FFTCG format. I think there are something in the range of 10-15 decks that are capable of winning a major event and even with that diversity, the decks and games feel skill testing and diverse. 000

Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 01/05/2025Honestly loving the current FFTCG format. It’s not perfect - it’s annoying that aggro is still this weird minigame that doesn’t resemble FF at all and Yuna is its own brand of unhealthy gameplay loop but every legend this set is impactful except *maybe* Vegnagun but not in a bad way. 120
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 29/04/2025Funny thing about Expedition 33 - not sure there’s been a game since Xenoblade that is simultaneously this pretty and this ugly at times. Generally more the former than the latter which is great and it’s understandable why some of the character models have the rough edges they do. 010
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 28/04/2025Master Duel make one single decent ban list challenge impossible. I really want to love the game but it’s basically impossible with the ban list the game has. 100
Ghoul02 @ghoul02.bsky.social · 27/04/2025I *really* hope they hit the balance levers properly on Expedition 33 - assuming the best thing isn’t painfully unfun to do, the actual combat menuing in speedruns is going to be super cool to watch. 020
