Vanguard ZERO

The game is cardfight everything about it is what I loved yet the gameplay and game mechanics from the store to the missions and everything in between is really confusing it looks like it should be played like the tcg yet it’s really different once you play and the ai helps you a lot that should be a good thing it’s not does not let you play the way you want and don’t get me started on how you obtain your cards the system is kinda weird and I think you can just get endless cards as long as you got the money to get them so you can just continue to get cards you don’t want till maybe you get lucky and get one good card that you need there’s a lot of problems that can be changed and I just hope they change them before it’s too late I already spent 100 $ and trust me when I tell you that 100 $ in yugioh duel links goes a longer way then in here plz update the game clean up the rough edges make it more user friendly and better to understand I love vanguard but rn your better off playing the tcg then this and once again this does not follow the tcg rules it kinda change the way the game is played even tho vary small it big cuz it’s not the game I’m use to playing

Half a decade ago, Bushiroad announced Cardfight!! Online, a monumental project to create a game where you could play Cardfight!! Vanguard with people all over the world. Unfortunately, the project was canceled the next year due to the developer, DELiGHTWORKS, deciding to focus on the much more profitable Fate/Grand Order. Now, what feels like a lifetime and a thousand metas later, as the Standard format reaches what the original Vanguard was back in 2013, Bushiroad has finally delivered. And it is spectacular. For those who have fans of the game from BT-01 and new players alike, ZERO offers an immersive gameplay experience that is every bit what one could hope for. Though the meta isn’t very strong yet due to a limited pool of cards and clans, new boosters in the coming seasons will beef it up to create a healthy PvP environment not dissimilar to the Vanguard of the early 2010s. If you are on the fence about whether to play this game, I strongly urge you to check it out.

this game does bring that nostalgia to the game for sure, if your a fan it won’t let you down completely, but one thing for sure the game just came out and they are still bringing in updates! It’s not going to be perfect right away which is why I’m giving this game a 4 star Things they could do is make it a little easier for people who don’t have the money to spend have something for us to work for packs so we can get the cards as well, it’s a little paid to win which isn’t okay with me everyone should have a easy route like challenges or more story or maybe in rank if you win a certain amount of games you can get packs... Another thing I suggest is a chat system so you can play with your friends chatting with them and such when you friendly duel or Atleast when your in the lobby with them, The blocking system is a little off And should be changed. Another thing the PCs are scripted to get certain cards which I believe should be changed as well One last thing if they can’t help with packs atleast make it easier for us to craft our cards because the material it takes to craft one card can be a lot of work especially with a limit of 100 stamina Thank you for releasing this game for us fans but you guys have some work to get done

To be honest, an online format is something players have wanted and needed for quite some time. I like the game and it is still more or less Vanguard that has been dumbed down for mobile... However, there are some glaring issues. Deck ratios are bad being forced to play 13 of each grade 1s-3s causes a lot of bricks. You cant choose when to PG and you also cant decide where your crit goes if you drive check one. The biggest issue, as with all games if this nature, are the gatcha and resource collection rates. Understandably they want and need to make money to continue development of the game, but you find out pretty quickly that you may only be grinding out 1-2 packs a day for a 0.16% chance at the RRR you want. Thats just no fun. Regardless, the game and its core idea are there. And during quarantine its nice to have someone to fight with even if its a little off.

Satisfying game at the moment. Only issue is that it isn’t the TCG. I’ve wanted to play the TCG since it came out, but had nobody else interested in it (they were all playing YuGiOh in High School). The games that came out since then were in Japanese as well. Then we get an announcement of a mobile game that restarted from 0, and was really excited. The game itself is fun! It’s decently free to play if you reroll to get a good start, and you can be competitive with any clan (currently # 800 playing a Royal Paladin incomplete deck, and never spent a dime. Have about 100 packs saved up, with even more possible if I had set up a VP Farming loop). However, it dumbs down vanguard a bit to adapt to mobile, so it’s just disappointing in that regard. Still recommend it: probably my second best experience with card games after LoR, and the gameplay loop is a lot more addicting.
