r/cardfightvanguard

So I just wanna gather thoughts and ideas. Been playtesting Zerith online and sad to say, the deck is so mid 😭 you win some and you lose some. And deck is slow, they should have made the order give 10K when there are two of the order bounded instead of 3.

Berucrea is actually much more better than this deck, was kind of hoping that at least it will be on par but no.

Main problem of the deck is cc. Opp can easily damage deny you.

Hope that in the new support will give us cc and that the new zerith boss is not mid and has other good support.

I was thinking about a couple of ideas for what a possible new Vanguard video game could be like, especially since this year is the 15th anniversary soo i would like to share them to you all:

• It would be multi platform (playstation, X-box, Switch and PC, with crossplay included);
• The story mode would cover all of the anime series (OG, G, Shinemon and major arcs of V reboot, Overdress and Divinez) Movies and could include the mangas aswell, covering all of the major fights;
• Every major characters of the series would be playable (MC's, Rivals, Villans, major supporting characters, etc.), characters from the games like Dear Days also would be available, they also would have interactions based on which one you pick to play and fight;
• Characters with variants like Fantome forms or Reversed versions would have them available as alternate costumes;
• Characters would also have lines for the cards they played in the series, and if there's have enough budget, ace units have a ride animation;
• Card pool would include all cards all the way to the most recent set (Dzb 17 as of time to this post), Vintage mode from DD2 would return(now renamed to premium mode) and updated with the new cards included, and also V-Premium mode would be included;
• You could customize rules of the duel to add extra mechanics (like include the EG in premium for example).

Soo theses are my ideas for the game, it might not actually happen but is fun to imagine, what do you think? Something i need to add, change or remove? Would you play this game if it exist? let me know.

Given the new phantom units introduced such as Levidras, Lianorn and manga characters such as Taizo and Welstra Fantome, how would you have modified the story. I would have certainly introduced Kuon and Levidras, since in my opinion he should have been one of the most important characters for how he was introduced, and I would have fought Erika against Taizo.
Characters like Ryugs should not be removed rather as it should have been managed.
How would you have structured this season with these changes.

Just been craving my golden years with CFV now I'm not actively playing and I know no one that plays or wishes to I just wanna go and experience the cards I know and love but it'd be nice to be able to read them and not to need to look them up to double check, it doesn't have to ever be a good translation, serviceable and accurate cards is all I really care for x

Next Episode on Weekly Vanguard Bites (August 25)
• Revealing ride line with "Malefics, Ominagruzio "Fantôme"" from DZ-BT17 Parallactic Fate, as well as their related cards (amount not specified). We can also see this unit is <Battleroid/Fantôme>.
• Revealing the limited illustration for the 8-person tournament at WGP Deluxe 2026 Season2 in Shizuoka.
• Revealing the next rubber playmat design for the "Bushiroad Authorized Store Support Course".

Been really wanting to play some fantome decks but damn those prices of generics keeps getting higher and higher.

More fantome units are coming but bushi still not making any reprints for the generic cyclers as usual. Not only the generics per clan, but there’s also the moon if you wanna play the better moon competitive wise.

The cyclers and moon are a must “four of” in any fantome decks and bushi surely is milking us sadly.

Especially if it's Akina, he just pulls a trigger out his ass whenever. 🤷

EPISODE NAME: "THE UNISON DRAGONS"

Plot:

An alternative route takes hold in the Au where the Side-Man, Nikku resides, after Akina defeats Sybilt, the corrupting Unison Dragon escapes and takes hold of our beloved Side-Man himself.

However, it doesn't replace him. Instead, it replicates our boy. Similar to Hikari's case.

It gave birth to a new Fantome. A selfish Side-Man that never lost a fight. Coming from a world where he spins the story of Divinez in his own image where he is the main character and casting aside Akina; Nikku "Fantome"....
