The Underappreciation of Typical Glasses-wearing Male Side Character (Overview)

This is relevant.

If you've ever thought that the archetypes you've played lacked support in any way, be it draw, gauge, removal, control, or otherwise pure gimmicks, don't forget that there's a complete extension of your dataset found here.

We're neglected, but it doesn't mean we're useless.

Battle Deity Robo

So I'm not a huge fan of robots, but I do like my share of them. I loved Bionicles as a kid and I won't deny that a cool-looking Gundam would have me ooh-ing at it. But there is an ethical reason why I can't play Brave Machines because it is simply unconstitutional for my own conscience to ever touch something remotely top-tier and bandwagonable. I can't do it. It's impossible.

So Bushiroad, understanding my plight, created Battle Deity Robos. Specifically for me. I know. They're too kind.

While they might not be as outright broken as their Hero World counterparts, Battle Deity Robos do introduce the Ride mechanic alongside some interesting options to other Worlds. And I do think they are playable, all the more so if they get a nice helping of support come H-BT03.

Tarot

I'm a big fan of fortune telling. I think it's a cool system, even if none of it makes any sense at all. And the Tarot cards all, in my opinion, represent different aspects of mankind and humanity. The reason why they're so accurate is because they cover broad, generic aspects of the human experience that we can all relate to on a innate level.

I was pretty hyped when I first saw Tarot cards in Buddyfight, just because it gave me an archetype that I was actually interested in collecting cards for. Of course, since they were Generic cards, I couldn't expect them to be good or anything. That would be asking too much.

Well, apparently somebody up in Bushi HQ likes me a whole damn lot, because they threw Tarots 4 full booster sets of support until these bad boys became a legitimate top-tier deck. Wow. What a world we live in.

There are two distinct ways to play Tarots, and a third for the funky combos. Because I love this archetype so much, I'll cover all three.

Chess

I'll make this quick and painless.

Chess sucks.
