kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I sure do love me some more expansion slot majestics, they fight right in with the shadow runeblade I want to build. @fabtcg.com please, never print another set with as many expansion slot Ms as in-set, this makes buying sealed product feel so shit. 250
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 20/09/2026This being said, in pre-releases I actually didn't mind that I pulled 2 more expansion Ms, because majestics have no place in that environment (yes, I did die to the 11 power levia M, how'd you know?) 000
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 18/09/2026At #fabtcg WP seoul we went through 6 boxes in draft, and ended up with a 3:1 ratio of expansion slot majestics to in-set. Its such a feels bad to open a majestic thats not relevant when you're interested in a set. Especially if they're not meta relevant: I don't want three chains of consecration! 370
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Never a scapel whan a sledgehammer is possible, huh LSS. Most sga changes are interesting, but triple wizard ban is a lot, especially with kayo back and shadow buffed. RIP marvel emeitus playset, you were expensive last weekend... 010
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Shoutout LSS for hosting two china callings this year, both while I happen to be teaching over there :D 000
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Can't stop thinking about use cases for this aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 010
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Multiple pages of notes, and a hell spreadsheet later, I've established that a #fabtcg LL kano deck can deterministically stack, worst case, a 30 card perfect kill combo in 118 turns. It'll be less if I allow the blues to be interchangeable, but then it gets way more complex. 120
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Fooling around with #fabtcg vis2 ideas, and all I can really say is RIP soul reaping. 000
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 12/08/2026LSS are never beating bias accusations after deciding assassin (260 LL points in OMN season) needs yet more support instead of brute (0 LL points this season). I like uzuri getting support but this feels like a bad joke. 110
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 17/07/2026I need it to pay for these tickets 040
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 07/07/2026The intersection of differing nats sizes + LL multipliers still looks so jarring: katsu with 1 win gains as many points as gravy with 3! 000
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 03/07/2026Coming back to this, it really does make me wonder what the point of the new Legendary headpiece really is. Afterthought to an afterthought? 021
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Every katsu player watching prism LL, victor reaching the brink: "this time it really definitely actually is a katsu meta, no I'm not coping" 010
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 24/06/2026From @thethreadedren.bsky.social's amazing donation incentive earlier this month, mail day! Happy pride month ya'll. 020
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 18/06/2026At what point do we give up and realize the real game was flesh and board state all along? 010
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 10/06/2026I don't think I've ever seen a company as willing to have their new cards/heros lose in promotional videos than LSS. Its weirdly endearing. 140

kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 29/05/2026Oscilio 2 in sealed is the most wizard-like anything in #fabtcg has felt since kano hit LL. Well done LSS, I did not expect to get so much joy out of sealed! 1110
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 15/05/2026I wish I was watching #eurovision this week, but not when they keep including reprehensible regimes in as they do. Its a real pity, I've discovered so much incredible music through that event, but when such cowardice and double standards prevail in an organization, its just not worth supporting. 000
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Shoutout LSS for having the players backs! Was only offered a partial refund for my earlybird ticket to prague (can't make it due to war). One email to LSS and its fixed! great company, now if only they'd hurry up and print viserai 2. 020

kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 22/02/2026I feel like #fabtcg SAGE would be a far better format if they printed an ice wizard weapon, maybe a once per turn instant that costs 2, but can only be activated if you've played a NAA this turn. Hell, it could even do 2 or 3 damage. Not often I'm pro ice, but I think it'd address a lot of issues. 171
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 03/02/2026Its interesting how new spellvoid, landmark destruction, and graveyard interactions imply #fabtcg PEN is trying to address polarizing matchups, except for wizard's weak matchups, which look worse and worse. I think its the first time a fab spoiler season had made me actively want to buy less. :( 310

kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 24/01/2026The removal of elo as a system has made #fabtcg R2N so much more fun to attend: no-one has to worry about arbitrary numbers, so all the irksome stress is gone. 040
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 08/12/2025Its a pity that #eurovision decided keeping a genocide state in was more important than morals, guess I'm not watching next year. For shame. 000
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 05/12/2025"[Oscilio] players often had one incredibly powerful “Greaves + specialization” turn, but the rest of their games became awkward and inconsistent." Kinda still sums up a lot about the hero, I feel. 110
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 04/11/2025Aside from all the moral reasons to not go to the USA right now, its really nice to not have to stress about Kano being on 980 LL points with a relevant meta position going into worlds. 020

kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 27/10/2025Aside from the frustration of having my decks for PQ bonked, I think this is making it pretty clear that LSS probably should switching to hitting classes with one ban/unban at a time for a format like LL. 110
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 26/10/2025Missed top cut for the first time this season as Kano, after GEM decided to face me into every prism in the room. Also, DTD Herald of Judgement text is wrong it turns out, and this was a bad fact to learn when I had a winning state with a kano'd photon splicing targeting a followup angel attack. 000
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 19/10/2025Made top4, top4, top4, and top4 with Kano this #fabtcg PQ + store champs season. When he reaches 992, I'd like everyone to know the reason kano didn't LL this season is because of wellington. 060
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 09/10/2025Opening 12 packs of #fabtcg MPG for 4 rainbow foil commons, lets go. EV through the roof. (Got smash palace from a closing down sale, thought I'd pre-crack to get my shines) 110
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 06/10/2025The arbitrary scaling of #fabtcg LL points looks ridiculous here: the hero who gained the most LL points in the week is #6 for wins (kano), two warriors on the same number of wins see a ~3x difference in LL points (fang 3 to dori 8), and riptide with 1 win gains more LL points than arakni with 2! 170
kotarou, the barefoot wizard @kotarou-c.bsky.social · 06/10/2025Since Oscilio has fewer LL points than every other ROS hero, every HNT hero, and Gravy bones of the unfortunate name, surely hes actually weak enough that we can get Tome of Aetherwind back, right? Right? 120
