Both Crow and Jack used zero cards from 5D's right?

Both Jack and Crow either reused or at least showed several 5D's cards, actually. That said, I think what Dexie means is that the focus on Kaito's deck has been completely changed, rather than the cards in it, while Crow still has the exact same focus (Blackfeather) and Jack has only been slightly changed (new Red archetype, but his deck still works the same and still uses Resonators). Kaito has a whole new archetype that works severely differently from "get two 2000 atk monsters, go into Galaxy-Eyes, kill all Xyz".

Crow used a few old school Blackwings like Blizzard and Bora.

As for Kaito, the good thing is that his new ace, if it gets printed unchanged, is straight up new Staple for Rank 8 engines.

Oh did they? I completely forgot.

A new archetype is kinda nice actually since the original photon and galaxy archetypes are all over the place mechanically while the rank 8 Galaxy-Eyes and Tachyon support cards are relatively focused.

Yeah, but he lost and his burn strategy didn't win him the game. It was kind of lame.

I honestly want to see someone win by annoying stall tactics and be celebrated for it.

Yeah, basically this. He's not using Galaxy or Photon monsters anymore, he's using Cipher monsters. I am a rather large fan of the Galaxy archetype and was really hoping for more support for it. :sigh:

I'm all for Cipher monsters if they all look as cool and abstract as Cipher Wing does.

They should have had him use an Orbital deck.

Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon fits in the only part of the Galaxy deck that was worth using, the R8 spam. It's extremely loving good there, in fact!

I mean who cares that it's not a Photon, it's like Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon on steroids.

Jumped back into Arc-V at episode 90 and man, Synchro got crazy in its last few episodes.

Considering how the last few episodes of Standard went too, I feel like the best way to experience Arc-V is to watch the beginning and end of each arc and just read summaries for the rest.

But my favourite stretch of Arc V is still probably the first round of the Maiami championships up until Yuya vs Yuto. Which was just after halfway through.

I just caught up on the show.

I can't believe I got so hyped up I was cheering and freaking out at the appearance of JAEGER.

It was only a year ago I watched 5D's but that was just. I felt this huge rush of nostalgia and fondness for a character who used to freak me out.
