It’s almost that time of year. The time when you start to tear apart your house and take part in the yearly tradition known as spring cleaning.
I not only participate in that when it comes to my house, but I also do this for my card collection too. I think all collectors need to do some touching up to their collections after a long winter. When it comes to spring cleaning my collection, I have two projects that I do.
The first part of my project is cleaning out overly used toploaders from cards I acquired over the winter. The ones that are covered with stickers, tape, have “yellowing” and card savers in general. I like to have a neat and tidy looking collection, one I can brag about.
The Pokemon Raid format is an asymmetrical, cooperative game where a team of players work together to defeat a powerful Raid Boss, represented by an oversized Pokemon card or a V-UNION. While the basic rules apply, there are a number of differences, such as players taking turns simultaneously, the group getting a collective number of Supporter cards that can be played each turn, and players taking their own prize cards as their Pokemon are knocked out. For more information, see the Pokemon TCG Alterative Play Handbook on the Pokemon website.
Serena here, back with another Vanguard article, this time, we’re going to be talking about one of the newest decks from Lyrical Monastario set 4, LèVre♡SœurS! These succubi sisters focus on buffing their grade 3 vanguard, LèVre♡SœurS, Charmout, who in turn powers up her sisters to swing with massive numbers! Without further ado, let’s get started!
Standard trading cards are 2 1/2” x 3 1/2”, but cards of smaller sizes exist. In fact, the original trading cards were smaller than this at about 1 5/8″ x 2 3/4″. A major issue facing anyone collecting these “mini” cards is the simple fact that most supplies are designed for cards significantly larger. Everything from boxes, sleeves, binder pages, and card holders are too large for safe use. However, BCW produces LaserWeld Card Insert Sleeves for these smaller cards. A U-shaped pattern is laser-welded into the center of thick polypropylene sleeves, which creates a pocket to center the mini card in a 2½” x 3½” form. The card is placed in the pocket, and then the sleeve can be placed in any standard Magnetic Card Holder, LaserWeld 9-Pocket Page, or other storage solution.

Alakazam ex from the Scarlet and Violet 151 set does something no other card in the Pokemon TCG has ever done before: It can attack from the bench. While it only does 120 damage with the Dimensional Hand attack, it can do so with much more protection than other attackers. When paired with Pokemon with powerful defensive abilities, it becomes very difficult to deal with.
Serena here again. And this time, I brought Friends! Today we’re exploring the new upgrades for Lyrical Monastario’s Fortia and her Friends. If you’re familiar with older formats of Vanguard, you are probably familiar with the Harmony deck. Friends are basically the updated version of Harmony. Most of our Units grant the “Friends” state when they have another unit in their column, and the ones that don’t all have powerful (but not ‘Powerful’) abilities! We will be calling the units that grant the ‘Friend’ status to themselves and their column-mates ‘Friend units’ for simplicity’s sake. The specific wording of the Friend ability is: “If you have another unit in the same column as this unit, that unit and this unit become “Friends”.
The new year brought the first of many changes to the Universus ccg, namely that decks in every constructed format have a minimum of 60 cards plus character. The next change doesn’t take place until the release of the Dark Tournament set, which takes the base My Hero Academia out of rotation for Standard. While there is still time to use the older cards, many players are already starting to build without those cards. That was my thought process when I converted my Order based deck to a new, standard-legal Evil deck. You can find the deck list on UVS Ultra.
