v3rse 614 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 Restored gohan beat empowered broly in the final (is it still set 6?) Some interesting decks played. No pikkon or king kai that I heard of though (wasn't there). Here's the top 8 according to face book: North Kai Top 8! Top 8 is Seed 1- Raymond Duvall Namekian Knowledge Cell Vs Seed 8- Frank DeLuca Saiyan Empowered Gohan Seed 2- Tony Murry Orange Retribution Cooler Vs Seed 7- Arvel Rowe Orange Retribution Gohan Seed 3- Derek Apfel Namekian Knowledge Piccolo Vs Seed 6- Shawn Sons Saiyan Empowered Broly Seed 4- Matt Tambor Namekian Restored Gohan Vs Seed 5- Brandon Suchan Orange Retribution Trunks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mid tier DBZ players are some of the most uncreative people on the planet. Easier to let someone else come up with the next big thing and then just jump on the band wagon. 1 sh0ryu_repp4 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Majin Goo 602 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 All this talk about broken and people avoided playing the broken lol. Yep, just as I thought. A bunch of whiny people complaining about things being broken because someone told them it was broken but not one of them wants to figure out how it's broken on their own. 1 sh0ryu_repp4 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No King Kai, no Future Gohan, no Orange 20 with Bicycle Kick? Like is it just me or does this list look WEIRD!? Geez not even Ruthless Trunks... Incorrect. There were several future gohan decks (empowered and retribution that I noted). And I believe tim batow was there with orange 20 (at least it sounded that way on Facebook. I can't confirm that for sure.) Those decks just didn't top. Supposedly more specific info on style distributions etc. Is supposed to come out at some point (probably with top 8 deck lists). Edit: and the orange trunks in top 8 was actually a sword build, not mppv. There was a cool adept 17 that had a good showing as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That... is exactly my point. I don't see any of the legit really good stuff that I would think I would be seeing ALOT of. That is why it confuses me. Also, uncalled for much? and to be fair, yes those were my last three decks but i was also saying how good all those decks were before they started topping events. and got told i was wrong for each one... so yeah...

v3rse 614 Report post Posted March 30, 2017 Retribution isn't even the problemat this point. The orange card pool is just super strong now and has all kinds of synergy with any of the masteries. Hence why there were more adept masteries played than all the black and blue masteries besides resolute. Think about that for a second. Adept (one of the weakest masteries in the game) had an equal showing to resolute (one of the best new masteries). And from what I heard the adept decks finished better as well.

Adept (one of the weakest masteries in the game) had an equal showing to resolute (one of the best new masteries). And from what I heard the adept decks finished better as well. Unfortunately, as with any other TCG, players aren't looking at the overall situation. They see something that they believe contributes solely to the problem and attack it. It's the same with BK. BK didn't break the game, he centralized it. An errata or a ban would not have fixed the BK meta. It would have still been small and there would still have only been 2-3 top decks. There just wasn't the card pool needed at the time to support a largely varied meta especially since most of the issue came from MP's with poor designs to begin with in the form of not enough effect on the game.
