Hi, hi. In this video, I try to explain the mechanics of a game I greatly enjoy, Cardfight Vanguard, while walking through a simple game. It's a really complex card game, with a lot of mechanics that even veteran card players may find challenging, so there's a lot of explanation and such which leads the video to be a half hour long even though a lot of matches with experienced players can be finished in around ten minutes. There is an official tutorial video here [ Ссылка ] but frankly, I don't think it's very good. It rushes through a lot of mechanics and doesn't really show what a turn looks like in detail. I try to rectify that here by playing out a full game, with two players interacting with each other, gradually adding card effects and mechanics as I go. Of course, if there's anything you don't understand, or if you think I could've explained something better, please say so in the comments. This video is an update of sorts to my old OverDress tutorial, which you can see here, though it is a bit outdated: [ Ссылка ]
Thanks to all for watching! I intend to cover the other formats of this game eventually as well, plus some logistical things like how to operate the client I used to make this video. It might be a while, though. The only reason I'm even publishing this today is that my Apollo Justice dub is having trouble rendering lately.
