One Piece Card Game Not to be confused with 2005's One Piece Collectable Card Game is a collectable card game released in 2022 (July in Japan, December worldwide) based on Eiichiro Oda's worldwide smash hit manga One Piece. Run your ship with your leader, direct your crew to defeat your enemies and strike the final blow when all their defenses are down. Take a mix of the Pokémon TCG's prize cards, Hearthstone's mana generation, Digimon's security checks, Cardfight Vanguard's shield values, the One Piece CG borrows a bit from many games and makes its own unique play experience out of it all. A normal deck contains
Leader Cards O captain! My captain! All decks have a single leader card and they define what kind of deck you'll be building.
Character Cards We've got manga art, anime art, original art and of course chase cards. Monsters, Creatures, Rear-guards, call them whatever you want. The majority of the cards you'll be using in your decks. There's a bunch to break down here.
Stage Cards The first booster set doesn't have any, just two of the four starters did. What were they thinking? You know about Pokémon's Stadium cards or Yu-Gi-Oh!'s Field cards? It's One Piece's version of them.
Event Cards A straight to the chest or cross counter in the face? Yu-Gi-Oh! calls them spells or traps. One Piece combines them together.
DON!! Cards Not DOOM!! Like a mix between Energy Cards and Mana, Oda's favorite sound effect plays an important role as your key resource. Each turn, that player places two cards from the DON!! deck to the cost area active (the starting player places only one on their first turn) with a max of ten available. DON!! have a variety of uses:
The Play Field
Rules/Gameplay The basic flow of a game goes like this.
Battles
Victory Conditions Victory is yours when you pull one of these off.
Color Playstyles These are just general descriptions, who knows what future sets will do to them!
Sets and Themes Each set has cards representing various arcs from the series. Of the ones known so far,
Where to Play Check your local game store and ask if they stock the game or plan to run events. Or check the official website and search your area. I've heard of an unofficial online simulator but haven't done enough looking into it to talk about it, sorry. Maybe Bandai will make an official app like Digimon has in the future. Useful Links The official english website: Keep up with errata'd cards, find the official rulebook, locate tournaments to play in and other news/articles/advertisements. Official Tutorial Video: For those who like to learn rules by seeing the game in action. Apple and Android Tutorial Apps: For those who like to learn by playing. One Piece Top Decks: It's got card leaks from Japanese sets, articles/deck reviews, tournament winning deck lists, there's a bunch of info to be found here.

Seems like there's going to be reprints of the series 1 stuff + starter decks in April. We got real lucky and our shop in town only sells stuff at/around retail--but I've had pretty good luck at Target and Barnes & Noble.

It really is impressive how much they dropped the ball on this. Our store got three boxes for the set 2 prerelease, which was only enough for 12 people, but they sent us prerelease kits/promos for 16 people. How does that even happen?

Yeah, its been impossible to get here in the UK also. Sucks! Managed to get 3 of the initial starter decks at least

https://twitter.com/ONEPIECE_tcg_EN/status/1639267795492896771 Following Japan's lead they're preemptively banning Moby Dick and Cabaji when set three's prereleases happen globally. Moby Dick because the Whitebeard Pirates gain a searcher card in set three making it a bit too consistently found for Whitebeard's endgame. Cabaji because he promoted a bit too much solitaire style play for the upcoming Nami leader.

This got announced like the DAY I built my whitebeard stage deck lol Got to participate in one of the online regional tournaments with it last weekend, went 5-4. None of the top 8 whitebeards were using moby dick so I'm changing it up to run strawhats instead.

Hey so I've been playing and very much enjoying this game. Currently the main deck I run is Smoker, though I have dabbled in Magellan and Kaido. Anyway, over the past few weeks the local meta has heavily skewed toward lots of Blue Doffy (amidst the consistent sea of red decks)...and quite frankly I don't quite know how to counter the doffy match up well...the consistency of them getting extra bodies on the field without having to spend a card just feels very much like an uphill battle for Smoker. So uh, does anyone have any advice for that particular match-up? Any ideas on good cards to include to help with the matchup?

Upsidads posted:Are the prices safe yet? Are you talking about for boxes? Singles? Anyway I can only speak about here in the US (and specifically in the South Eastern US) So for boxes prices have stabilized between 100-140 depending on what LGS you buy from, however there is inconsistent distribution (which seems to be worse with LGS's supplied by, Alliance Game Distributers than everything else) The price for singles is relatively good actually. With the exception of Alternate Arts and Promos most cards are relatively cheap, with the most expensive secret rare cards usually getting to about 30 dollars. (Specifically the 8 drop Katakuri and 5 drop Marco). Generally speaking you can build most tier 1 decks for around 100 dollars on Tcg player (again if you don't care about alt-art cards).

That's about what I'm seeing. Seems like shops around me are starting to get more stuff a littttle more consistently, esp prizing for tournament participation and other events. I'm really pumped for Buddy Battles kicking off sometime mid-august. There's allllso a simulator available that's been pretty cool for trying out new decks before committing to getting some physical cards.

I really need to get on it so I can start grinding matches in op04 so I can know what tier 2 deck I will run and lose to Whitebeard with. Probably Blue/Yellow Queen.

Ha! I'm that Whitebeard scum, but.. nowhere near as dominating as the current Zoro/WB meta I've been seeing. Also so, so many Katakuris. It's such a weird match-up for me bc I'll neverrr let Soul Pocus take away one of my life cards, but still end up in weirdly close games.

So currently in op03 I'm running Lucci and honestly, I generally let them trash my life, and will often go to 0 life pretty early because I have Borsalino + Blueno + Fukuro as really good blockers that yellow has a hard time getting through because once I'm at 0 life, their 7 cost big moms, 10 drop big mom's and soul pocuses become mediocre at best. Then I just push in for 7k like 4-5 times in one turn and take them from like 4 life to dead in 1 turn. But yeah there is a ton of Katakuri in the local meta...its the big events where all y'all WBs and Zoros come out to play.

Oh, GOD that Fukuro is such a good blocker. He and Blueno are the reason I'm keeping the st01 rush Luffy around. I had dreams of alternating between Nami and WB but I feel like I need a little more something-something to actually pull it off with her. Kinda wish they limited that Cabaji card instead of doing a full ban on it.

Eh, I played the Cabaji version on the sim a bit...and I got to say I am glad its banned. It is not a fun deck to play against since it just plays solitaire. But to each their own. Its one of those decks I am happy has been relegated, for now, into the high-roll meme deck bracket along with Sanji. Though, admittedly, I would like Sanji to get some support since I think that is a fun deck to play. Madmarker fucked around with this message at 16:32 on Jul 18, 2023 |

Upsidads posted:Finally got to play. Love that skirmishes actually happen and Yamato is a tough monster Yeah the life system is great. The fact that it sort of acts like a rubber band, giving cards to the person who is behind, definitely helps ensure that games feel close even when they are not. What deck were you playing Upsidads? Kinemon?

i want to play this game a lot. big mom deck is great and i added more Charlottes and a couple sanjis. i also want to make a nami deck but after opening an entire booster box i don't even have enough cards for the deck. they should really have some low power genetic all color cards or do more cross flavor dual color cards. it's nice that each color seems synergistic and has their own goals. i need to look at other sets and spend ten bucks on a hundred dirt cheap singles.

The only roadblock is finding out how trigger cards go "on the stack" if there even is one. this mostly is puzzling for yellow cards that do the fun life stack shenanigans.

# ? Jul 20, 2023 00:49 |

so, something confusing came up when playing with upsidads, there's cards that say in bold "you may trash X cards in your hand" or something. do you need to trash the card in order to get the effect after the colon? it doesn't say i need to trash a card to get an effect. it makes sense for black because it has trash pile recursion, but for yellow cards that have that it makes a little less sense.

Party Miser posted:so, something confusing came up when playing with upsidads, there's cards that say in bold "you may trash X cards in your hand" or something. do you need to trash the card in order to get the effect after the colon? Or lets say you want to play the card Thunder Bolt from hand (not as a trigger), you MUST take a card from life into hand to use the effect. So if you have no life, you cannot play Thunderbolt from hand. Now this is only true of costs. Lets say you play Soul Pocus or Seven Cost Big Mom. These force your opponent to choose whether to let you gain a life, or they must trash a life. If your opponent has 0 life, they can choose to trash a life, and simply fail to do so since they are choosing an effect to occur, not a cost to pay. Party Miser posted:The only roadblock is finding out how trigger cards go "on the stack" if there even is one. this mostly is puzzling for yellow cards that do the fun life stack shenanigans. There really isn't much of a "STACK" in the MTG sense in this game. Triggers occur after the attack is completed so their really isn't too much for it to interact with. However, if two events would somehow happen at the same time (for example a Rob Lucci leader ko's a character with an "ON K.O." effect) the active players effect has to resolve first, then the defending player will resolve their effect. (For example I swing at your leader with Rob Lucci. You block with Boodle. Before you trash a card from the top of your deck with Boodle I MUST decide whether or not to restand my Lucci by trashing 2 cards.

Having additional Don!! will not allow that ability to be used more than once. However, if the ability occurs "When Attacking", if you restand the character and have them attack again, you could get the effect again. (once for the 1st attack and once for the 2nd attack)

thank you very much for the clarification, we have been playing for the last few days and just winging it. I can not find a store that sells cards for good prices online yet. Local round chicagoland starters can be anywhere from 20 to 35 dollars prerelease on TCG prices are absolute against the grain goofy speculative prices. Just roll some dice and use that as your price for cards, commons? rares? just make up a number

And yeah wish I could help you there, most places around here are selling starters for around 15-20. Now don't get me wrong, when our supply was real tight those starter decks went UP in cost for a while. And yes only the defender can play counter events.

So guess I'm double posting, but uh...theres been a ban/restricted list update. Note this is only in the English meta at this time. 9 Cost Whitebeard 4 Cost Marco (the blocker) and Radical Beam have all been restricted to 1 per deck. I'm unsure how this will playout in the meta, though I imagine it spells good things for Katakuri, Zoro and Law.

It's me, I'm the guy that's really down about the WB restrictions. I loved the setup bc of the do-or-die position I'd be put in and felt like I had a pretty good sense of the endgame. Gonna try to make it work but I feel like I might mostly keep it around for the memories and have to put something else together to stay competitive.

Supposedly a more aggressive strawbeard build is still going to be decently competitive, haven't tested it myself though. So WB likely isn't dead yet.
