So basically, when this cat is out, because of a loophole with Legion, he's able to restand the vanguard, who gets a +1 crit anyways for having four of his units at rest, anywhere from two to four times in total? Allowing him to basically check anywhere from four to eight triggers in a row? Now I dunno about the rest of you, but that loop hole, seems like complete crap, a MAJOR unfair advantage. The only thing that I can think of that's a draw back, is that A) they'd have to cut back on triggers cause he's a grade 0 and B) that when he's used up the field is empty, but thanks to Legion he can be shuffled back into the deck to start the cycle all over again.
This seems majorly unfair, some would point out Miss Mist being effective, but the problem comes from the fact that at the moment OTT is kind of left to dwindle so you'll barely see anyone running them. I just don't like the fact that because of a technicality on Legion's part, this cat is allowed to boost a unit that already gets crit off the bat and the only way to seemingly counter this tactic is to kill the cat asap, which works for some clans, but other clans which do not have a retiring method are completely screwed. He can attack multiple times if he is guarded and even if he isn't guarded he's swinging for two crit and the only thing you can do then is hope he doesn't get another. Also WHEN he hits, he can just simply restand a raiser unit. All of this and not a counterblast to be spent. This, to me comes off as overly cheap and not in the good way.

Should i ban cat butler for that in my tournament?
-
I have to agree. I think is combo is just as, if not more, broken than Sin Buster. Although, you are mistaken on the cut-back on triggers. You can't cut back on triggers, since 16 is the required amount, but it does increase the amount of G0s in the deck, making riding slightly less consistent. This combo has way too many advantages and too few drawbacks. It's cheaper AND more powerful than Tetra, Raging Form, and Re-Birth, and even Sing Saver. Most tournaments that allow Legion should ban Cat Butler; it's just too good with Legion Unless Bushiroad Erratas Cat Butler, or changes the ruling to make it so that only the Mate stands.
-
I'm pretty sure once Bushiroad catches wind of this they'll add some type of limitation to cat butler. (Like only 2 can be in a deck with Mega Flare.)
-
Well I made a statement... a lengthy one at that on their main website, so hopefully someone will see it and something good will happen, I don't mean to target NG specifically, but that card is giving them a near conroe type of advantage and that I will not stand for.

Hey it's your tourney, do whatever you feel is appropriate.

I dont see whats wrong with it O.O.
-
No doubt that its stupid and unfair. Worse than Sin Buster, that's a bit far, as you can still use anything and everything available to you to help you stop both Mega Flare attacks.
However, anyone who thinks that Bushiroad DIDN'T intend this, or that an errata is coming any time soon, is seriously kidding themselves. They had to make the conscious decision to make this ruling.

That is very true.

Yep. It annoys me and I wanted to talk about it. Welcome to the internet, how can I help you?
-

I dunno to be honest. I won't deny it's unfair to have a constraint crit and have a Descendant like rear guard to stand your vanguard with far easier cost. I can't agree it's worse then Sin Buster even if the Raizer is generally more consistent. Especially with DP risky mind set.
However, anyone who thinks that Bushiroad DIDN'T intend this, or that an errata is coming any time soon, is seriously kidding themselves. They had to make the conscious decision to make this ruling.
This I do agree with. Especially in a time the game is trying to grow to a new level of game play. The best that could happen is that everyone runs Raizers in the next official real life tournament and then they ban the cat entirely if it's in everyone deck. (poor Barcgal) But I seriously doubt that is going to happen.
-
It isn't really a loophole, but rather a clear example of how having two different grade vanguards in the vanguard circle can interact with certain effects that affect either vanguard.
If it stands one of the two, it stands both of them. That's pretty clear to me as the two vanguards are after all linked together, so if there's any effect that affects one of them it'll affect both of them barring Power gain and boosting, which is stated in the rules that you have to choose one of the two.
Another interpretation would be Warsickle, who has to choose a vanguard to stun, stunning the G3 vanguard. Even though the G2 vanguard isn't stunned, you're still unable to stand the two vanguards because one of them is stunned.
Just another interesting aspect of Legion that can be taken advantage of if they design more cards that affect a grade 2 vanguard.
So it isn't a case of the rule being stupid, but rather that Cat Butler's interaction with Legion is stupid.
-
A simple errata on butler cat would fix this
just tack on [If you control one unit as a vanguard]
-

Except it's not likely to happen unless they dominate the meta game in japan because if they had any intention to errata it now it would have already gotten errata'd before the ruling was revealed.

Indeed. Also facing that Strong Restanding Critical Loop it still gives me creeps... Anyway I believe that banning it is a little extremely it would be better either Restrict Cat to 2 or Mega Flare 2 like Descentant.

So basically, when this cat is out, because of a loophole with Legion, he's able to restand the vanguard, who gets a +1 crit anyways for having four of his units at rest, anywhere from two to four times in total? Allowing him to basically check anywhere from four to eight triggers in a row? Now I dunno about the rest of you, but that loop hole, seems like complete crap, a MAJOR unfair advantage. The only thing that I can think of that's a draw back, is that A) they'd have to cut back on triggers cause he's a grade 0 and B) that when he's used up the field is empty, but thanks to Legion he can be shuffled back into the deck to start the cycle all over again.
This seems majorly unfair, some would point out Miss Mist being effective, but the problem comes from the fact that at the moment OTT is kind of left to dwindle so you'll barely see anyone running them. I just don't like the fact that because of a technicality on Legion's part, this cat is allowed to boost a unit that already gets crit off the bat and the only way to seemingly counter this tactic is to kill the cat asap, which works for some clans, but other clans which do not have a retiring method are completely screwed. He can attack multiple times if he is guarded and even if he isn't guarded he's swinging for two crit and the only thing you can do then is hope he doesn't get another. Also WHEN he hits, he can just simply restand a raiser unit. All of this and not a counterblast to be spent. This, to me comes off as overly cheap and not in the good way.
Dauntless Reverse anyone? or Tempest lol

Those skills only activate during your turn though, so unless you allow yourself to take a 2 crit attack or hopefully get your opponent to call cat butler as a rearguard before using his legion, Dauntless Reverse and Tempest can't really do much.

I get ur statement but i never once lost to that deck with cat butlers in it when using kagero/narukami lol or revengers only lost once to it ever lol. and faced it at least over 20x
-
actually if you use a SP deck that Centers 'Witch of Cursed Talisman, Etain' then you could actually stop either crit 2 or cat butler easily
-

Well there's always that option of making a Shadow Blaze deck to retire 2 rgs after vanguard atked and then nuke there cat butler and another rg on there side since you choose the 2 on there side and yours lol.

I agree with everything about the whole thing. Standing vg with such skill in Legion seems...meh. Whats even worse imo is Daikaiser with Uru Buster and laurel...that's even worse if you ask me...and I think they really need a big restriction.

Blastra its not you can use Laurel once. But what about 4 Cat Buttlers on the Field with MegaFlare Legioned Vg and you are at 5? Will you survive total of 5 attacks?

I like this idea but the crit 2 cant be stoped in most cases once it gets off and it's off way before the point Etain could even think about stoping that bonus crit. It won't even be stoped if they stand their rears with other cards. As for earlier game they will probably just attack rear guard columns anyway to try to counter it letting you preserve. Best you can do is stop 3 attacks or retire a kitty that is not boosting with Etain if your in Limit break.

I do agree Blaster. Buster and his support is far worse to deal with then this but they don't need Daikaiser or Laural to work. Laural just insurance.

So many problems with this statement here I'll start with the off topic one.
1. Laurel is actually more then once. But you have to be able to rest 4 rears for each use. If you can get a double stand on the second set of check with 2 miracle beauty in the front row. You can actually use Laurel again but the odds of this are really low just to make that clear and not practical.
Now lets go into butler and flare.
2. No one is going to run 4 butler and expect to consistently ride to 3 with it. It ruins ratios terribly. The first game it took me 10 games just to ride successfully all the way to Grade 3. When I droped it to 3 it was far more consistently ride to 3. 2-3 is far more solid number to constantly ride and have butler feel like well butler.
3. If your at that point where there would be 3 butlers on the field you probably would have lost anyway since you at 5 damage.
4. Your never going to get more then 2 out at once every time which if you get 2 out it's still op but not broken if you play right Cat should never be a threat ever.
This is just the beginning. Be prepared for more in the coming sets. I feel like they can do worse after all I say again the game is evolving after all.

It's only considered a "OP" skill because people do not counter the clan directly. To stop the legion's full effectiveness, you simply nuke their field and attack hard enough to take away their hand. Stay on low damage and slam the field until the legion is left with 2-to pass- or take a hit when you can guard everything else. Like with all decks, theres a clear weakness, and once exploited even the mightiest deck falls flat on it's face.
Nova Grapplers have always been weak to retire based decks. Raizer can't generate a lot of advantage, but he can help speed things up. His goal is to swiftly deal the death blow. Your job is to smash rg's and up the damage count constantly forcing guards. It's a hard combo to break ,but I agree with Blaster than Sin Buster + support is much worse a scenario.
@ Tss: You could probably counter the deck using Murakumo based on Shirayuki , completely making the legion attack....guardable for 1 cb, or simply ignoring it, if you play correctly.

Your absolutely right. This can work even vs Metalborg. For the ignoring it sake it's just when I look at Metalborg they can gain advantage for simply ignoring it and if played right you probably won't be able to stop them from gaining the advantage anyway outside of shirayuki. Shirayuki one of the strongest counters to legion because it makes it easier to guard or just outright makes it 2 to pass but this is slow due to Limit Break restriction.

It kind of sucks though, that that's the only way to promptly stop them, nuke their field, how many clans/archetypes are capable of doing that reliably? Am I asking for the cat to be banned out right? No, am I asking it to at least be limited? Yes. Those decks that were in the recent Japanese tournament, ran three of the furballs and in a clan that restands like it's no one's business, I don't think they need a MUCH easier mechanic to do this. I keep on explaining to tss and nova, but as per usual, it's like hitting your head against a wall, nothing changes and you end up with a headache.

i think the only way to make the cat restricted is to make bushiroad notice that Card of being in too many decks in the next tournament

Weren't there 3 of them in 'every' NG deck in the Japanese tournament?

I hate seeing this sort of logic. If I have to run a specific deck just to stand a chance against this stuff...well, that's not exactly balanced, now is it? I primarily run Glendios. Raizers are a non-issue for me, because when I stop Mega Flare with Rubidium, Cat Butler can't trigger. Does that mean its not an issue? No, because its a 0 Counterblast, 0 Soulblast, -1 rearguard cost for a Vanguard restand, who will be swinging for 2-3 stages on their second swing. This is also fully active in midgame, because they have: A) An additional Critical to pressure you; B) An on-hit skill to stand one of their rearguards; and C) A Starter that grants ANOTHER on-hit skill to stand two of their rearguards for a measly -1. Not to mention that smart players won't even field Cat Butler if they can help it before their Legion is active. Keep in mind that just with the restand this is a +1. However, this is a minimum -4 to your opponent, because Mega Flare's inherent on-hit pressure makes your opponent guard the vanguard when its wiser to let it through during midgame, resulting in a -2. Then, they have to -2 AGAIN to guard the 2nd attack. So, overall, its generates a 5 card advantage gap.
Also, it should be noted that 4 Cat Butlers is easily workable. The Blau Ride Chain allows for it. BT04 Ride Chains increase your ride consistency significantly, since for the purposes of riding to Grade 3, you have 3 additional Grade 2s (only 3 because we need the G1 of the Ride Chain a turn early) that we can put ANYWHERE. 17-13-11-9 is the optimal ratio for riding up to Grade 3. So first we remove 3 from Grade 2 due to the Blau chain, slap them into Grade 0. For the last one, we just take it from Grade 3. People do this all the time, most decks take the standard ratio and move 1 card from 1 Grade and move it to another, usually from Grade 3 to Grade 1. Here, we're moving it from Grade 3 to grade 0. BUT WAIT. We don't even NEED to run 4 Cat Butler to get it super consistently, because Frozen Ogre is easily splashable and searches out the Cat whenever you need it. So yeah, any consistency argument is null and void.

^I really have to agreee with that statement. Mega Flare with cat butler...as well as the whole thing with sin buster,daikaiser and laurel...both of those need a really big restriction, if not some kind of ban.

That is just a Reply to TSS.
Yes you are right you cannot run 4 Buttlerd because of the consistancy of deck, so you would run 2 or 3. Same goes though for Laurel, running 4 it will detroy your lines (9+4=13, 8+4=12, 11+4=15) which neither of those can be enough powerful against a 11k Vanguard, so I would run 2 or 3 Laurel. Also in order to Restand Laurel and 3 More units to reuse the skills you need Miracle Beauty, and lets say t run 2 of them, which even lowers your G3 Space for 11ks unit (Since Drion,Sin and Daikaiser is a must). So its like unlikely someone would use Miracle Beauty. Also notice that Miracle is just a 10k, which bad as Vg (NO skill and 10k), and not that help ful with Laurel as Rg, 14k nuff said :p

I'm pretty sure once Bushiroad catches wind of this they'll add some type of limitation to cat butler. (Like only 2 can be in a deck with Mega Flare.)
It would be best if they should BAN Cat Butler when using Mega Flare. It's insane if you ask me. Totally insane. And one more thing: Legions work with mixed clans :'( They should put a specific clan when legioning. It's also insane.

Maybe they will add a clan restriction for official tourneys(if they didn't already do so) or they wanna add a Special Card like majesty Lord Blaster or Glendios that only works with dual clanning

Considering Bushiroad has never outright banned a card, I highly doubt we'll see a ban on the card, and it'll still operate well at just 2 copies, just like Descendant did after his own limitation. I don't think we'll even see any sort of limitation anytime soon, because remember, this is very clearly a conscious decision Bushiroad made. I mean, look at the BT16 Raizers. Overall, they're the weakest stuff in BT16.

The Blau Ride Chain allows for it. BT04 Ride Chains increase your ride consistency significantly, since for the purposes of riding to Grade 3, you have 3 additional Grade 2s (only 3 because we need the G1 of the Ride Chain a turn early) that we can put ANYWHERE. 17-13-11-9 is the optimal ratio for riding up to Grade 3. So first we remove 3 from Grade 2 due to the Blau chain, slap them into Grade 0.
I had to think about this point for a while and after a while of thinking I can't with agree serge on this point. It's even worse for consistency because now your also relying on a grade 1 to get your grade 2 for free and both take invaluable space that could had been used for your raizers or other things. If you run Stern as the alternate vanguard sure I can somewhat accept that chance if you run butler at 3 and only at 3 but it's not likely to be so since you will run the other legion of Nova to help butler. I don't personally however but still 6-8 grade 3 that can also have grade 2 in the vanguard circle. Ya.... (Thank god Butler is restricted to Nova's)
The ratios run is at least 20 grade 0 due to cat butler and if you want 4 it's 21 grade 0.
As for Frozen Orge well I wonder if people will even bother. Assuming it's be used in mixes. It doesn't feel worth it to me other then the deck thin. Since it has to attack the Vanguard, only works on the very turn you legion.
Considering Bushiroad has never outright banned a card

I'm talking about statistics here, TSS. :P I'm not talking about only running 3 of the Grade 1, I mean that we can only remove 3 Grade 2's before our consistency starts going down because our artifical Grade 2's are actually Grade 1's, meaning we need to get them a card or two early. With the aid of the Blau Ride Chain, however, the ratio 21-13-8-8 will only be a bit lower than the best ratio 17-13-11-9's ~83% chance to ride to Grade 3 successfully. The 17-14-11-8 ratio that most people rely is a bit lower at ~81% anyways, so its a non-issue. As for Frozen Ogre, there's no real reason not to run it if you're worried at all about consistency. The Grade 2 options for Raizers or lackluster anyways beyond Dual Flare, and the 2-4 copies of the 12k beater you should be running. Its effectively used as an additional 3-4 copies of Cat Butler.

Ah, Silvest, forgot about him. Well, I don't think he really counts, since he had an expiry date on him. xD Its not like he was banned because he was a problematic card.

I'm pretty sure once Bushiroad catches wind of this they'll add some type of limitation to cat butler. (Like only 2 can be in a deck with Mega Flare.)
It would be best if they should BAN Cat Butler when using Mega Flare. It's insane if you ask me. Totally insane. And one more thing: Legions work with mixed clans :'( They should put a specific clan when legioning. It's also insane.
Well i am sry but i don't think that will happen this season so it would be better for us to wait for the next
We have yet to hear for further announcements from Bushi.
Considering Bushiroad has never outright banned a card, I highly doubt we'll see a ban on the card, and it'll still operate well at just 2 copies, just like Descendant did after his own limitation. I don't think we'll even see any sort of limitation anytime soon, because remember, this is very clearly a conscious decision Bushiroad made. I mean, look at the BT16 Raizers. Overall, they're the weakest stuff in BT16.
We would only hear about the restrictions once these combos will be seen in action as per se with Dragonic Descendant's case in the tourneys...
>implying Descendant is a combo
k.
You don't get it do you? What I mean is, Bushi's gonna be deciding on banning this combo or not in decks after seeing it's effectiveness and overusage in tournaments... like in Dragonic Descendant's case... It was restricted because of overusage. Not the combo. Gosh.
