Nexus At Night Podcast

The pandemic continues to rage. Buddyfight's gone. There's not a lot of tournaments or locals. And yet, Bushiroad is still releasing sets every month, and has messed up on rarity ratios. Why, exactly? Vanguard players the world over are wondering if it's worth it to continue following this game. Prospective new players are a little skeptical about starting the game. SolemnVanguard thinks there might be a reboot on the horizon, and all this has us wondering: is it all worth it?Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon!Follow Atlas on Twitter or Instagram @atlasnovackFollow Matt on Twitter @wiggumzzFollow Alvin/Root Beer on Twitter @plasmaeclipseDon't forget to send us Create-a-Card ideas if you got em, with the hashtag #nexuscards!Send us episode ideas, questions, or just come say hi!Listen to Atlas' other podcast, Bad Reading, here!Or watch it here! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nexusatnight/support

You asked, we asked you, you delivered, and now we're reviewing some of your custom cards once again! This time it's a tale of two dinos, some more Blue Wing support, a well balanced knight, and a loose interpretation of how "great" Great Nature really is.Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon!Follow Atlas on Twitter or Instagram @atlasnovackFollow Matt on Twitter @wiggumzzFollow Alvin/Root Beer on Twitter @plasmaeclipseDon't forget to send us Create-a-Card ideas if you got em, with the hashtag #nexuscards!Send us episode ideas, questions, or just come say hi!Listen to Atlas' other podcast, Bad Reading, here!Or watch it here! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nexusatnight/support

A new set is out once again, and this time it's not gonna be two hours of us complaining about one card... Oh wait, yes it is. Welcome to Silverdust Blaze, where most of the cards are pretty solid but it doesn't matter because the X is back. On the bright side, the podcast welcomes a first-time guest, Vince! Vince is a Link Joker player and good friend of Atlas', and he has decided to bring his wisdom to the show about why yet another clan gets to be Granblue.Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon!Follow Atlas on Twitter or Instagram @atlasnovackFollow Matt on Twitter @wiggumzzFollow Alvin/Root Beer on Twitter @plasmaeclipseDon't forget to send us Create-a-Card ideas if you got em, with the hashtag #nexuscards!Send us episode ideas, questions, or just come say hi!Listen to Atlas' other podcast, Bad Reading, here!Or watch it here! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nexusatnight/support

*Rod Serling voice* Imagine, if you will, a world that's gotten so far up the asshole of capitalism that Bushiroad has started laying off even Vanguard clans. Hundreds of units would have to move to other departments or just be fired altogether. *Normal voice* that's what we're doing today! We decided to conduct a little thought experiment on what clans could either be assimilated into others, or just outright cut.What did you think? What clans would YOU cut?

This is just like us, isn't it? 2 weeks after we do an in-depth review of Granblue as a clan in premium, Bushiroad releases a whole new mechanic for them: treasure markers. So much like a zombie pirate rising from the grave to do battle, Commander Jaime is back (along with long-time guest host James) to talk about what these treasure markers do, and how they might fare in both formats.Check out CommanderJaime's Granblue blog!Follow Jaime on Twitter @JaimeUlisesAlv1Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon!Follow Atlas on Twitter or Instagram @atlasnovackFollow Matt on Twitter @wiggumzzFollow Alvin/Root Beer on Twitter @plasmaeclipseDon't forget to send us Create-a-Card ideas if you got em, with the hashtag #nexuscards!Send us episode ideas, questions, or just come say hi!Listen to Atlas' other podcast, Bad Reading, here!Or watch it here! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nexusatnight/support

Freakin' finally, we can put this to bed! We've been teasing this episode for weeks, with bits and pieces about it leaking out in our other episodes. With a new premium collection set comes new strides for all the clans. But you don't care about that.The big thing everyone's talking about this side of everywhere is Rain Element, Zazan, a card in Premium Collection 2020 that is wreaking havoc on the playerbase as people see its meta-destroying power. What better person to bring on to chat about that than SolemnVanguard?

There we was completely wasting/ stuck inside and bored/ so far cards in pre-collection were nothing but a snore/felt as though Bushi didn't care/if they made good strides/but they shock and awed us with some cards that breathed new life/BREAKIN' THE LAW BREAKIN' THE LAWTerrible song parodies aside, there are certain cards in the game that downright break the rules that Bushiroad has set up for Vanguard. Today, we'll be looking at two of those strides in the upcoming Premium Collection. Are these anomalies good for the game, or will they rip apart the fabric of it?CommanderJaime's premium ripple deck profile (that we mistakenly attributed to WaveNation!)Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon!Follow Atlas on Twitter or Instagram @atlasnovackFollow Matt on Twitter @wiggumzzFollow Alvin/Root Beer on Twitter @plasmaeclipse.

Vanguard Zero is now out in the west, and we're gonna talk about it in way less detail than Differentfight did! All 3 of us are... kinda not too jazzed on it. On the other hand, a new Narukami stride is out in the upcoming premium collection, and we think it's FAN-tastic!

Chrono and friends are back, and so are their clans! Which can only mean one thing... one more excuse for Atlas to gush over Altmile's abs. Oh, and there's some cards too we guess, for Royal Paladin, Gear Chronicle, and Neo Nectar.

You know the guy... the one who miracle heals every game. He pulls all the high rarity cards out of his prize packs. He double crits you from 3. There are many names for him, but we here at N@N know him as Chris. We've mentioned Chris a multitude of times across our history, and today we finally brought him on, not just to try to gain the secret to his strange lucksacking abilities, but also to see how he's been since we all left college.

We're all nerds here, we all play this game... But some of us play MORE THAN ONE GAME *gasp* how do they do it?! Well, Atlas, who recently started getting back into Yu-gi-oh, and Matt, who is playing anywhere between 2-4 tcgs depending on what's going on in his life, have some insight into how it's possible to juggle 2 games at once. What do you think about playing multiple tcgs at once? What's your experience? Let us know!

Yes? WHAT COST?! We'll tell you what cost. Card costs are literally the first thing you see at the start of any effect in this game, they've developed along with power creep throughout Vanguard's history, and yet no one talks about it. So we're here to do that! Join the in-debt triumvirate as we talk about the history of effect costs in Vanguard, and what we think it means with the new card orders.Follow us on Twitter or Instagram @NexusatNight, or support us on Patreon! patreon.com/nexuscorpsFollow Atlas on Twitter or Instagram @atlasnovack, Matt on Twitter @wiggumzz, or Alvin/Root Beer on Twitter @plasmaeclipse.

As you may have heard, a thing happened in Vanguard recently: a player was banned from big Bushiroad events for "unsportsmanlike conduct" following a top from that player. The guys delve into what that means for the community, and how that affects people who regularly address our community. Meanwhile, Atlas is literally drunk, and we also talk about the pressures of trying to keep this show going, and what it could mean for the future of N@N.
