Recently, I've been completely absorbed by the newly released Gundam Card Game. After doing a few booster set and starter deck release events, I went to my first local constructed tournament for the game last week and had a blast. My expectation was that many players would be playing late game control decks based on results from other tournaments, so I tried to take advantage of this with a Green/Blue Zeon aggro deck. My first two rounds, against Green/White Wing Gundam Zero decks, proved me correct as I was able to finish the game quickly, before their decks could fully ramp up. My last round was against my friend who I had been testing decks with since the cards first got revealed, which was cool since we both knew our matchup well. He was running a Red/White Triple Ship Alliance deck, which seems to have a favorable matchup into aggro, which wasn't helped by some unlucky draws. My friend ended up taking the game and my final record was 2-1. For next week's tournament, I have a few adjustments to make to see if I can get the 3-0. I'm expecting others to also be making adjustments to better handle aggro matchups. The process of refining a deck over time and adjusting to your local metagame is just such a fun experience and it makes me really glad to be playing a TCG again!
