Oh god why

I'm cautiously hopeful that these will be for new clans altogether, but you peoples have to see this...

...If these actually are for Golds and Naru, I have lost what little hope I have.

...If anyone can read Japanese so I can get the names for these things, that'd be great. Or not, as it may reveal something else to complain about...

It's Gold Paladin & Narukami.

Gold Paladin - Liberator of the Sanctuary
Narukami - Eraser of the Empire

Oh fuck me. GOLDS DON'T NEED ANY MORE SUPPORT.

...Hang on, what does that mean, 'Eraser of the Empire'? Is Narukami going to rebel against the Dragon Empire?

It might be more like Erasers from the Empire, "of" denoting ownership.

What's interesting is that they might change the standard Trial Deck format.

...If Trial Decks introduce Crossrides as commonplace...

*shudder*

On the one hand, more Gold Paladin stuff right after we got lots of stuff ten seconds ago?

On the other hand, Gancelot retool. HRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNG.

Does make you wonder how you retool a retool (in Thunder Break's case). Will Thunder Break be included in Trial Deck 9 as a common in that case, or what?

Thunder Break is a retool of what, exactly?

It has Berserk's counter blast skill but it seemed like a new generic LB type for Narukami moreso than an attempt to directly call back to Kagero, given Narukami got an actual Berserk Dragon.

Apparently there is a tweet from Dr. O that talks about new vanguard of shadow paladin.

Maybe Shadow Paladin are finally getting a new starter?

...And here I was thinking they wouldn't be freed for a while.

I should start another thread discussing Season 3 Speculation. And maybe why it's so bad when it does air.

This is basically Bushiroad trying to sneak as much money from our wallets as possible. With this, I am hoping they don't make a season 3 and focus more on the game and less on using the show to fuck over everyone that isn't running Gold Paladin. Season 3 is just going to either introduce a new clan to screw everyone over, or a deck based around all 3 paladins that makes MLB look like Gancelot. They should take a year off from the show and focus on making the game properly, like they used to. At the very least they should leave Kai and Aichi behind and go to a new set of main character that use more interesting decks that Generic Warriors and Generic Dragons. Maybe then something else will get some support.

These trial decks are from Season 3.

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT, BUSHIROAD

Can you please stop buttraping Gold Paladins?! They already have become one of the most supported clans in the game, and they haven't been around that long at all. I find it utterly abhorrent when something that has been around for a quarter of the time than an original type or archetype or group or set or whatever in any TCG gets more support on a more regular basis than something that's been around from the start.

Like, say... Shadow Paladins, Megacolony, Granblue or Spike Brothers. All of which are original clans, but are vastly under-supported. Jeez, Bushi, pull your finger out and stop giving GP's support.

That Gancelot art looks really nice. Just saiyan

I'm pretty jaded to this bullshit by now. :|

So many cards have such great art. Bushiroad no longer.gets points for that now.

They should make Gold Paladins the only clan. Just give it the gimmicks every other clan has.

Basically that's what they're doing

"Mighty Blue Falcon, Gancelot"
Ya I guess he's one of those 7 favourite warriors out there

So much for CLOSED DESIGN!

This game is as generic as fucking anything else at this rate~

Well, there might be at least ONE good thing coming out of this. Gancelot's retool might ACTUALLY BE GOOD. You know, like Cosmo Lord's. Also, if he IS the Blue Falcon(Me thinks there will be at least one Dyno-mutt in this deck. I might get it JUST to make those kind of jokes. That, and this retool just looks REALLY cool.[For all my hatred for the glut of bandwagoners they've created, GP's still have my favorite art.]) that means we are almost DONE with these Beast Armors, leaving only Purple Elephant(I think that's the only one left.) to get a boss, meaning we might actually be looking at the tail end of the Gold era. Hopefully, having lost ANY justification for releasing more GP's, Bushi might stop being distracted by the shiny guys. At least I hope so. I mean, BT09 should be both a logical and a good stopping point for them, lore- and metawise. Afterwards, let's get back to Royal Paladins, Kagero and the much needed Shadow Paladin support. The Gold Paladin's achieve their mission, and we all go home. Narukami can stay, as long as they figure out WHAT THEY BLOODY WANT TO DO. Ok, Bushi? Is that too much to ask?

Why is a Gancelot retool going to Royal Paladin? I know they replaced the clan in show with golds, but why let the show dictate real life?

You mean going to GOLD Paladin's right? Actually I rather like it, as we don't really have enough former Paladin's in a group that's supposed to be MADE of them, as well as whoever else they can grab.(Like Ezel and his hair, er, I mean Red Lion Corp.)

Sigh. I just want this over with.

Would be nice to make room for other clans.

Every set has had main character support. This is exactly what I meant when I said the show is ruining the game. At least with royals it wasn't too bad, but this is just ridiculous.
