Decklists from Designers Themselves!

Yes! Decklists from Takara Tomy themselves! Click here for the original page!

So…. They’ve done up a deck list for each of the teams! and they’re sweet! I was really excited to test them out and I’d made all of them and tested them at 4 different WIXOSS party events.

Verdict: No Limit

No Limit Sample Decklist by Takara Tomy

As described by them, this truly is the most straightforward deck to learn and to pilot out of the 4 decklists. The objective is simple. Go aggro. Very aggro. Use Romail and Lancelot, coupled with cheap spells (Deafening Inferno) / LRIG abilities to quickly clear lanes and lifecloths!

Only question is, whether do we really need 4 Nobunaga? Having them stuck in your hand isn’t really the best feeling. In order to play them, you will need another red SIGNI, an enabler condition which means you will need 2 cards just to put her into a lane. One possible way to get additional cards into your hand is probably to replace Tabiel with Arcgwyn, which helps to fill another card into your hand while still remaining relevant with its lifeburst ability closely resembles that of Tabiel’s.

Verdict: Card Jockey

Card Jockey Sample Decklist by Takara Tomy

To be honest, Card Jockey feels like an intermediate version of No Limit, with a better control of closing the game by using PRJ-MAP and endless punchline or MC Lion’s ability. The use of Haniel, Arcgywn and good dig really helps to setup a clear lane for the win in the later part of the game by filtering out those level 1s and 2 SIGNIs. Playing “Go to the Top!” to reduce opponent’s ener with PRJ-MAP in play in most scenarios almost assures a win or at least maximum damage dealt!

My only complain would be the the lack of green ener. I may really consider to swap Percival with maybe Pandada.

Verdict: Uchu No Hajimari

Uchu No Hajimari Sample Decklist by Takara Tomy

ahhhh, i must say of all, this is the most interesting deck. Less wacking, more doing stuffs. Stripping your opponent’s hand, freezing their rested SIGNIs and look at their expression when they are deciding if they would put these SIGNIs into Ener zone.

But, what made the deck fun is also what makes it “tricker” to play as compared to its counter parts. There are conditions to meet for most cards. Like Great! Re-Ver-sal and Bradamante which requires opponent’s SIGNIs to be frozen in order for them to be useful.

The deck also faces another problem which is its ability to “open” up lanes for SIGNIs to perform direct attacks to the lifecloth.

Yes to sum it up, this is a control / defensive deck. so definitely “control” players, do give this deck a try!

Verdict: Diagram

Diagram Sample Decklist by Takara Tomy

“WHAT! Mill decks exists in this game?! omgggggg”

This was the first response I got from a few of my opponents while playing this deck. There was a couple of occasion where the “stars aligned”

Play “Salvage the future” choosing mill option

Attacks with Center LRIG, opponent mills….

opponent refreshes…. opponent takes the last life cloth and put into trash after refresh

opponent doesn’t have servant in hand! anddddd Muzica steals a win!

Having Dark Energie in play creates a little chain synergy with other similar “pay 1 black, target SIGNI gets -xxxx” SIGNIs. Its like playing those abilities for freeeeeee, especially when almost card the deck (16 cards) have this ability.

Two cards which you may choose to replace would be Dagger Type:Zwei and Fragarach. I feel that in the current meta where there’s Zhao Yun in all decks with White, they kinda becomes less effective. In addition, this deck fills its trash much slower than her Njisanji counterpart which makes Dagger Type: Zwei not as effective as it should be.

Conclusion: If you just picked up the game and wants a easy to learn yet competitive deck, No limit is definitely the way to go. Otherwise, do try out the other 3 teams which each has their own unique game play style!

Peace and stay safe!

Card tests on a WIXOSS card?

There are many different tests performed on MTG cards to test its authenticity. So what happens if we use the same tests on a WIXOSS card?

Light Test on WIXOSS and other TCG Cards

The first test is the light test, which you use a torchlight and see how much light is shined through the card itself.

If we were to rank how much light passes through these different card games. It will be in this sequence:

(Least Light) Flesh and Blood TCG -> Pokemon TCG -> MTG -> WIXOSS TCG (Most Light)

It almost look we are shining a spot light on the Darkness Eater from the front rather than the back. (I guess… she only eat darkness.. not the light away)

Bend Test on different card games

Second test is the Bend test. MTG cards are famous for being able to survive a bend test which is a test where u pinch the top and the bottom end of the card together like as seen in the image above. So… how do our cards fair?

MTG, Pokemon and FAB all survived the bend test! no crease was formed!

But…..

A small sad crease… on a WIXOSS TCG Card was formed after a bend test

Well….to be fair, WIXOSS TCG cards are slightly thicker which you are able to feel it when you are holding one. I suppose that’s why a crease was formed as thicker card means reduced flexibility.

Rip Test for different TCG Cards

The third and most gruesome test….rip test….(literally R.I.P)

Rip test is usually used to check for the core lining of a TCG card. Usually its blue or black core as seen in the image above for the MTG, Pokemon and FAB cards.

Interestingly, WIXOSS TCG cards doesn’t have a colored core, but it looks like its formed with a couple of white layers which makes the card thick. I guess this method probably isn’t helpful when testing WIXOSS cards

Rip Test for foiled cards from different TCGs

A repeated Rip test but this time with foiled/holo/parallel/bling whichever you preferred to call them.

The results is interesting. Using the same amount of force while ripping a normal card, The FAB, Pokemon and MTG cards hold up pretty good which feels like i’m ripping an elastic thin sheet of plastic.

BUT…. when doing the same for WIXOSS, it “snapped”, it just snapped into two pieces.

Summary

It is definitely fun to use some of these techniques on WIXOSS. Although we know that FAB, MTG and Pokemon have some of their products printed by the same company hence having similar result, i was still hoping for a different result.

Let’s hope that one day, we truly need a way to authenticate WIXOSS cards as this simply meant that the game had grown so huge that it creates interest for counterfeit cards.

It will be a happy problem.

Peace and stay safe.

Censorship have started..

The difference between Japanese and English WIXOSS Cards

So..when you thought censorship is not coming to WIXOSS as we see the cards from WXDi-P00 Interlude Diva remaining their original art.

Let’s welcome Nobunaga, Crimson General Queen! (Censored version!)

If you didn’t spot any difference, its basically just a small change of wardrobe for the queen. From bikini to corset.. maybe winter’s coming… cold…..

Don’t catch a cold people

A detailed strategy discussion for Interlude Diva Decks!

A few days ago, i came across this link which i think was very well done, kuddos to the author! Do take sometime to appreciate the awesome work.

Click here for the doc!

Here’s a quick summary of the write up!

Tawil - Ancient Surprise

Summary:

Tawil is the premiere full aggro deck of Interlude Diva, and in many eyes, the strongest deck in the format. Mount a powerful offensive with a deck full of Red SIGNI, while keeping your Ener up with Green assists and maintaining hand with Blue assists.

Pros:

  • Consistently threaten the opponent with SIGNI each turn.

  • Able to pay high Ener costs thanks to boosts from At

  • Able to replenish and cycle hand, thanks to Umr, as well as her Level 3 LRIG’s abilities.

  • Access to both Double Crush and Assassin, allowing you to adapt to different opponents

  • Access to some Ener burn, helping you somewhat soften the blowback from giving the opponent too much Ener

  • Sidesteps the “if all SIGNI on your field are red” requirement by only playing Red SIGNI

  • Immune to Ener burn that trashes off color cards, as she plays none.

Cons:

  • Limited defensive options available; your field is essentially a sitting duck waiting to be Vanished, by battle or otherwise. Usually plays only a single defensive Assist, and even then, it is either quite expensive or only a single point of defense

  • Lack of variety due to only playing one color in the main deck, limiting your options somewhat. Weak to SIGNI that have Shadow or are particularly high powered.

  • Can run out of steam if slow-rolled, once all assists are used.

  • Somewhat weak to decks that send SIGNI to the Trash or hand

At - Ancient Surprise

Summary:

Somewhat the new protagonist of Ancient Surprise, At is a balanced deck based around having different types of SIGNI on the field, trash and Ener as well as fielding powerful SIGNI. Using Umr assists for consistency and defense and Tawil assists for both offense and defense, At is a versatile deck that is great for those wanting to try out the game.

Pros:

  • Effective assists that open lanes, defend, and provide resources.

  • Keeps up on Ener thanks to Green Maindeck cards

  • Powerful SIGNI that can prove hard to remove.

  • Flexible deck building, able to support both Green-Red and Green-Blue builds to emphasize damage or disruption.

  • Variety of effects, some of which allow you to completely bypass some of the opponent’s defenses

Cons:

  • Many of your cards are 2 card combos or have certain requirements that may be hard to meet for some game states.

  • While strong, her effects are also very expensive Ener-wise.

  • Low power SIGNI can dodge a lot of her removal.

  • Falls behind if you dont pay attention to the contents of your Ener (or if your opponent does, and has a way to mess with you).

Umr - Ancient Surprise

Summary:

The control deck of the Interlude Diva format, Umr is a deck that demands a different skillset and playstyle than the rest of the Ancient Surprise girls. She struggles to open lanes outside of her assists, but makes up for it by limiting the opponent's ability to execute their game plan.

Pros:

  • Able to manipulate her SIGNI’s positions, something that other LRIGs need to live without.

  • Access to repeatable and cheap effects that discard the opponent, limiting the opponents plays.

  • Able to play fully defensive, though expensive assists.

  • Has a one-time access to the most powerful form of removal in the game: deleting a SIGNI zone.

  • Able to spin SIGNI back into the deck, limiting the opponent's ability to bounce back.

  • Best looking out of the AnSap trio, Tawil is only ok, don’t At me.

Cons:

  • Low offensive power, only able to open lanes through her Level 3’s Enter ability, her assists/piece, and an expensive Ace SIGNI

  • Hand destruction decks are essentially forced to hit their opponents SIGNI on field as part of their gameplan, so her opponent will always have access to Ener.

  • Somewhat reliant on being able to obtain certain cards early to get her gameplan off.

  • Weak to opponents that draw a large amount of cards.

  • Reliant on being able to move her SIGNI around via her effects, which can limit what cards are playable in the deck

  • Requires that you know what the opponent plays and wants to accomplish in order to maximize disruption.

  • Asks that you memorize cards at the bottom of the opponents deck for maximum effectiveness.

Sanbaka

Some Notes:

For this section, rather than discuss each Center separately, I’ll instead discuss Nijisanji(Sanbaka) as a whole, as many of their cards are effective on any of the Centers and assists are meant to be somewhat interchangeable. While there are some minor differences, feel free to play whichever center you like the most.

Summary:

Characterized by being the first team only able to play 2 colors, Sanbaka is a collaboration with the hugely popular VTuber group Nijisanji, featuring three members as LRIGs, and a selection of popular ‘Livers’ as SIGNI. Many of these SIGNI are designed to combo with one another based on real-life “units” making for flavorful decks. All the art is commissioned especially for Wixoss too, for those that are into that.

Pros:

  • Access to a lot of consistency cards, allowing you to grab from deck or trash for relatively cheap

  • Removing SIGNI by returning them to the hand does not give the opponent any Ener, which results in a harder game for the opponent.

  • Can field a very hard to remove SIGNI that provides value turn by turn, or powerful SIGNI that can easily deal with your opponent’s field.

  • High flexibility in picking Assists and Centers, as many assists perform similar roles, but in slightly different ways to adapt to your own playstyle and meta

Cons:

  • High high Ener costs to open lanes. Prohibitively high at times.

  • More than a few 2 card combos, means you might end up having to dig a little too hard for things.

  • Some builds are prone to overmilling themselves, causing you to take refresh “damage” that you would otherwise avoid.

  • Tribal to a fault, you probably won’t be able to get away with teching in much, if anything outside of the <Virtual> typing. Which sucks because..

  • ...no <Virtual> cards or <Sanbaka> LRIGs have been printed in JP since Interlude, as of Set 6.

  • Was romanized incorrectly, so people will think that you’re playing as Three Idiots and not as Samba Carnival. Oh well. #Sambaca

Peace and stay safe!

What is the pull rate for a WIXOSS case?

This is probably the first question to come to everyone’s mind when it comes to purchasing booster boxes and even booster cases. 

What is the pull rate for a WIXOSS WXDi-P00 Interlude Diva English Booster Box?

What is the pull rate for a WIXOSS WXDi-P00 Interlude Diva English Booster Case?

The following are the different rarity and card finishings you may open in a WIXOSS English booster box:

C: Common

C: Common - Parallel (Holographic)

R: Rare

R: Rare - Parallel (Holographic)

L: LRIG

L: LRIG - Parallel (Holographic)

ST : STarter deck cards - Parallel (Holographic)

SR : Super Rare (Only Holographic version)

SCR : Secret Rares (Will be parallel versions of LRIGs and some SRs)

DiR : Diva Rare (Signed cards and golden bordered parallels)

??? : (Parallel of LRIG, almost like winning a lottery)

So in this experiment, we took down the pull rates of each of the above rarities (less the ??? as we do not have sufficient boxes to do a statistic on this)

Pull rates for each individual box for 3 cases of WXDi-P00 Interlude Diva Boosters

Interestingly, when we thought we could conclude that each case will minimally have a DiR, the 4th case does not have a single DiR ! Which… followed by 5th and 6th case so that we can conclude our findings. The 5th and 6th cases each have 1 DiR each. 

So in short, expect minimally a SCR or higher rarity in each booster box and an average of one DiR for each case. Also, do expect extreme fluctuations in the Common and Rare Parallels as highlighted in red above. But I guess, some may just group them together haha….

In Summary. It may be much more of a viable option to find a few friends to share a case, so at least someone in the group will bring home a DiR or in some cases, two of these lucky friends. Just hope that zero DiR case doesn’t come….

Share with us your experience by dropping a comment below.

Peace and stay safe!

P00 Interlude Diva and TDs Box Opening by TakaraTomy!

It’s 6th November! The official day of release for WIXOSS English!

In the video, both starter decks and P00 Interlude Diva Booster Box was opened! Thus far, from the few box break videos circulating on YouTube, it seems that there’s likely only one SCR (Secret rare) or DiR (Diva Rare) which is similar to the Japanese editions.

Will we see “god” boxes? multiple SCR or DiR in a box?! Let us know! Good luck for your boxes!

Peace and stay safe!

Building a WIXOSS Community!

Printing english translation strips to facilitate learning before the actual release!

Are you excited for the long awaited launch of WIXOSS english? We are! and this is what we did. Painstakingly cut out individual translation of cards so that we can have a proper game while learning how to play. Using this, we did a few rounds of sharing sessions for our local players who wish to find out more about the game! Players of all ages and mostly already TCG players who are deep in other TCGs. Some play MTG and others Flesh and Blood TCG but they all sure agreed on one thing! WIXOSS is interesting and its game play is fun!

But most importantly the gorgeous art on the highly chased parallels and signed copies! It really feels like a collectible when you are holding one in your hand.

Well..while we continue to build our local community, we would also like to reach out to the world! Hopefully one day WIXOSS will have major events similar to MTG’s Grand Prix and FAB’s The Calling! Let’s work together to make this game great again!

Peace and stay safe!
