Song might be changed to something else but this one has symbolism for me so shut up I'm keeping it for the time being. That aside, this deck is absolutely the most fun thing I have ever played in Vanguard. I have a stand build for this too and it's stupidly fun because of the sheer shenanigans of standing for a 40k column for next to nothing is incredible. Taliesyn may not be a Liberator but the fact that he's pretty much an 18k for two turns for just Crossbreaking or even one if I don't get the Crossbreak or don't draw Zenith... yeah. He's pretty goddamn insane for a 23k beater alone for a Break turn. Bruno is and Geraint are incredible obviously and just god the deck is so nutty when it doesn't f*** you over and you can even expend triggers for the limit break and lose nothing. I want to run Lynet at some point but I don't know what I'd drop so that can come later.

Zenith is just really well designed in my opinion, especially for a crossbreak. If you want to tell me otherwise shut up because I'll probably never listen to you about anything. He's not stupidly f****** busted but he's not terrible and you can play him like five different ways and just wow.

um
thats it i think

Good job on -neging the stands.

They're not negged. Just in another build.

Shhh we all know the one with crits is > the one with stands - w -

Running 10 crits now.

Today is a bad day for my deck and I'm not sure of the issue. Yoseph is irritating me but I don't see much reason not to run him here. But I could play Marron instead for the aggro I need. Testing Marron as I post, might take out Yoseph for him.

Yeah, try running Marron over Joseph. How has Bruno been treating you? Since it's practically a guaranteed 10k booster on a Zenith turn.

Bruno's amaze. He's a 10k with Spring Breeze and then 10/15 on any Zenith turn. I only wish Geraint felt as incredible, despite the same skill and all.

- Geriant
- Yoseph

+ Marron
+ Escrad
+ Gallatin
+1 Blaster Blade

might test gance recycler later because im getting sick of topping them
may run the soulblast2 unflip2 guy

How has Escarad been testing? Must feel weird running him without Yoseph.

Not at all. The deck functions a fuckton faster without that useless asswipe getting drawn all over the place and never topdecking him. Escrad is great because makes up for field lacking starts.

Switch the numbers on Flames and Strike. The name is far more precious than the skill in most cases, just being a Liberator makes it better.

Cut Marron to 2 and take out Llew all together for 4 Yoseph. (You'll understand why I'm saying this later, trust me.)

Cut BBL and Gallatin for 4 Geraint. It'll become a massive powerhouse card later on in the game, like seriously big stuff.

Cut 1 of each Gancelot for 2 Garmore. Garmore legitimately wins you the Eradicator match-up by giving you free advantage after they go off on you. It's a great card atm just for being advantage (Something that Liberators desperately do need) and it's not a small amount like Alfred either, it's a full field. It also helps that you can spin away front-row units in order to counteract getting locked so you still have the column open the next turn. This has won me way too many games.

This is how I've felt Liberators optimally play post-14. Garmore wins you way too many games now that the deck actually has a lot of support that they're willing to give to it. Riding Zenith on top of Gar just seals it.

I tried Geriant and he didn't do that much for me. It makes no sense because Bruno was always useful but Geriant felt awkward and didn't do anything. I can try him again, I guess. I'm also sick of Llew too, so I can do Marron-Yoseph. I just need Yoseph to cooperate.

Making changes and will test later.
