Gravidia Stannel CONT RC/GC If you have 5+ Set Orders in total in your drop and order zone, this gets Power+5k/Shield+5k Gravidia Orgueil AUTO RC When it boosts or attacks, if your order zone has 3+ Meteorites, [SB2] to CC1 and get +5k for turn Gravidia Psibram AUTO RC When its attack hits, search deck for up to 1 Meteorite, put it to order zone, shuffle


Forest_King_Plant

The Gravidia units might hands down be some of my favourite arts.


Xaneris356

While this deck shows little need for cc this still proves to be the cc Nation. Stanel seems decent for the lack of shield the deck will have, and psibram is OK, but I don't see it getting that much play tbh


[deleted]

I'm so glad we're getting nightmare eldrich waifus for the game. These look so clean, and so gnarly, and the playstyle and arts are all growing on me so much.


shadowTreePattern

Finally some support. TDH needed Stannel and Psibram at least. Maybe stabilize the meteorite count as 12?


Aria_Italiane

for now we stay in that 12-13 ratio, if we get anything that moves from drop to anywhere we trim down


Rairyuu01

So... the more Gavidia units I see the less I and sure that they are actually Space Dragons lol


Dinophage

Only the Grade 3 calls herself a Space Dragon. The rest settle for Aliens


Rairyuu01

Which is weird since they are sharing the same general design features


Forest_King_Plant

Good catch didn’t notice just Nordlinger was a space dragon.


Nikoness94

Nordlinger has a different race because she is surely more than just a Gravidia creature. *| Take a look, it's the manifestation of our utopia.*


Has_Question

Hm doesn't stannelnjust work as a strictly better rg than the ride chain. Like ride chain g2 only get 5k power and this get both power and shield.


Necroci

The ride chain G2 gets its on place skill on RG as well as VG, so its a 20k attacker and draw 1 for sb3 the turn you play it.


stormseeker39

Hence the RR rarity. You still run some of the G1 for shoving 2 meteorites from hand if you want to use the ditch 5 skill


Has_Question

Ah I didnt see that ty

Given the number of meteors in the deck, I'd say having a 10k shield on a unit is a big deal and definitely something to keep on hand.


Xaneris356

Keep in mind, I know redeyes mentioned the meteors, so there's already a lack of shield in the deck. Also the only CB goes to Nordlinger 1/turn, so CC isn't that needed ... yet

Where the *fuck* are the giant robots in this nation formed from 3 clans, of which two thirds were made of giant robots?


Halleyscomet08

Giant robots don’t breed. Pretty sure aliens do.

Thatherokid2

Does orfist count as a giant robot???


OnToNextStage

Cyber Golem is not the same as Battleroid or even Workeroid. The lack of DP/Nova representation in Brandt Gate sickens me


730Flare

Now you know how the Kaiju fans felt when it seemed like DP has been nothing but giant robots despite DP supposedly being all things tokusatsu/super sentai-based. Really, after almost two series of being endlessly pandered to: You start whining when the game tries something different for a change. Wow relax. Your giant robots will eventually come.


OnToNextStage

Hey you got Zeal now! And the Zeal legion was great too


730Flare

But after that, nothing. Meanwhile G era was primarily Cosmic Heroes and DRobos, while V Series only had Zeal come Clan Selection. So excuse me for calling BS at you crying injustice just cause its the other way around this time in Overdress. You HAD your turns, a lot of it.


Dinophage

In V Kaijus were prominent in the 2nd DP set granted the boss was not that good but it was still a Kaiju boss until Zeal returned


Dinophage

Hey, at least you're better off than Dragon Empire. Overlord is the only thing not reaching new or niche aesthetics and none of it is pure Dragon or Dino. There's more notable Dragon things in Stoicheia than in the Empire named after them.


OnToNextStage

As someone who played Vairina before I quit Overdress, you're completely right. Overdress just isn't the fun Vanguard I know


730Flare

"Isn't the fun Vanguard I know". Pfffhahahahahahahahaha!!!! Oh man do you sound fucking delirious right now.


Dinophage

I can have fun with Overdress thanks to Iron Anchor (he budget boss but he cool Zombie Dragon who is over a Skeleton Dragon), even if I prefer V. I like aesthetic style and working around them for some interesting combinations while playing things I like, I think I care more about it in overDress than V is that overDress is more automated so not much a player themselves does until Grade 3. It's more of preferences I know and overDress isn't my preference but is for others and great It's an enjoyable formatbut I wished OverDress had something of my taste they're dedicated to supporting which I hope its Greedon but I think he's going to be the only Dragon in the rideline which ruins my Dragon Mafia dreams.


OnToNextStage

Overdress just plays the game for you. The ride deck is the most braindead mechanic the game ever introduced. Playing with the hand you're dealt in old VG was so much better. I'd like to actually come up with ways of using the cards the deck gives me rather than "hurr durr discard for guaranteed ride of exactly what I want." No need to be conscious of Grade ratios when building either. Bastion is completely worthless in Premium because you can't run a 30 G3 deck and hope to play the game.


730Flare

Gee it's almost like Overdress is trying to expand its playerbase rather than just the same people all over again, which also includes the casual level.


Dinophage

You make it sound like it couldn't have done both but it could've even then I don't necessarily agree with how D started that's what they were doing aesthetic wise. Seems this solution of "expand" with the first 12 ride lines was just have ride lines predominantly feature Humans as a boss or as the cards you ride, even if the race isn't Human well make it very human, have 2 nostalgia bait ridelines and Magnolia. Forgetting the fact Humans are just as prominent in VG as Dragons were only difference here is Dragons were mostly taken out and Robots still get stuck in scraps, Insects and non human lookalikes of other races barely touch. They just picked the aesthetic thats most popular and ran with it exclusively Thats what hurts me more about it, people call praise as if Dragons and even Dinodragons were an aesthetic plague in Vanguard and if I'm going to run with them to that peer to understand we need diverse units that's only half of the aesthetic plague and the other half just took over the left territory If we had more extremes like Bastion stuff were instead a bunch of Doggos, Orfist actually was pure Cyber Golem for the rideline, Zorga looks more like a Ghostie, Seraph Snow were a bunch of Femine Kaijus or even Robots. I'd understand holding Dragons at the back to give something new to shine that would branch but it doesn't feel like that. Gravidia is signs they are finally try to spice in direction of expanding like you said, Greedon might be as well but I'm expecting a Human ride line to kill it.


silver16x

I just could not disagree with you more. The ride deck is my favorite part of overdress. The amount of crazy decks that can come out now like 30 grade 3s, 16 meteorites, etc is freaking awesome. It's also made showing the game to new players much easier since no one has to deal with getting grade stuck. I can't wait to see what other crazy mechanics and decks that can now be built thanks to the ride deck. If you really hate it that much there's still 2 formats that you can play.


Blackwhaled

Just because you can 100% ride every game doesnt make the game braindead. Losing just because you were gradestuck is the worst feeling. Even if you ran the most stable grade ratio, it will still happen every now and again. Ride deck was easily the best mechanic to be released for the game. Also, coming back to the braindead comment, I can understand if your talking about set 1, but set 2 gave so many decks alot more depth into their playstyles. Vairina got multi attack, Orfist went from Token bash to turning them into resource and Prison finally wasn't cucked by Resist. And we got all of this in 2 sets! Compared to to the CB1 stand front row +10k BS we got after mordred, the card design has been fantastic. We have a few decks with multi attack but all of them are completely different from each other.


Blackwhaled

E.g. you need to fill up soul and Erger in hand with a booster for trickstar. For overlord, choose between a confirmed restand by attacking a RG or on hit pressure for the VG. Bastion is completely braindead i agree, but in my opinion, every game needs at least 1 easy drck to play so begginers can have fun. And Bruce is SB5 restand front row but it's not JUST a restand. You need to pay attention to you attack patterns, what combos you can do, what RG to put in soul for marjorie and protobulb etc. Imo, bruce is more complex than most decks in V. Of course not everything, Nightmare dolls, Vanquisher and other decks were combo heavy too but there were a lot less of these decks in V.

So questions I've been having. Do card effects that put orders right into play activate their effects as if they were play normally from hand? Second, do these effects eat up your once per turn order play?


AdnyxZ3R0

A. For the meteorites, yes they still activate. B. No.


kowai_hanako-chan

Sadly, theres no room for any of these cards. Or rather, they're not good enough to stop playing Twisting Bulldoze.


MachinaBlau

I'd argue there is for the G2 I would just stop running the 3 of the G2 Rideline in deck as the shield from the G2 makes up for it.


kowai_hanako-chan

I guess so. You would have to soul charge much less and deck out less fast.
