Mid Piece: A TCG Podcast

After the madness of Utrecht, this week on Mid Piece things are a little quieter as I take a much needed week away from actually playing the game, but there's still plenty of One Piece TCG to talk about! We start by catching up on the competitive scene and looking at the results from the latest Regional events in Virginia and Athens, including the winning decks and what those results might tell us about where the meta currently stands. From there, we take a broader look at the current format and the five to seven decks I believe make up the top of the meta. Rather than there being one obvious answer, we discuss why each of these decks is genuinely viable, what they bring to the table and why there's plenty of room to find success with the right choice. Then I go on a bit of a ramble about something arguably even more important than choosing the "best deck", actually becoming a better player . We talk about testing properly, finding and building a strong testing group, surrounding yourself with players who will challenge you, and getting the most out of the time you put into the game. Finally, as always, we wrap things up by answering another great selection of questions sent in by the Mid Piece community. A slightly more chilled one after Utrecht, but plenty of competitive One Piece goodness to get stuck into.

This week on Mid Piece, we're back from Utrecht, and there's a LOT to talk about! I'm breaking down my entire experience at the European Nationals weekend: the highs, the lows, the good, the bad, and everything that happened across an absolutely packed few days of One Piece TCG. We go through my run in the Flame-Flame Colosseum, the European National Finals and Sunday's Extra Grand Battle, breaking down the games, the matchups and some of the biggest moments from across the weekend. 25 games of competitive One Piece. Three events. One massive weekend. After months of testing, preparation and talking about Nationals on the podcast, it's finally time to tell the full story of what happened in Utrecht.

This week on Mid Piece, we take a deep dive into the current state of Green Mihawk and the problems surrounding what has quickly become a Tier 0 deck in the OP-17 meta. We discuss just how dominant Mihawk has become and look at some of the potential solutions Bandai could explore, including whether paired bans could help bring the format back towards a healthier and more balanced place. I then recap my week in the hobby, where I took Purple Kaido to locals before continuing my final testing with both Kaido and Mihawk as I try to make that all-important decision ahead of Nationals. We also dive into a plethora of other topics from around the One Piece TCG before, as always, rounding out the episode by answering questions sent in by the community.

In Episode 128 of the Mid Piece TCG Podcast, I discuss the chaos surrounding registration for the OP-17 pre-release events, from the ongoing problems with the Bandai TCG+ app to the growing number of scalpers entering events purely to get hold of product.

This week on Mid Piece, we kick things off by discussing one of the biggest issues currently facing the One Piece TCG community, the growing impact of scalpers. We talk about how difficult it's becoming for players to get hold of sealed product, the effect it's having on the game, and why something needs to change to make products more accessible for the people who actually want to play. We then revisit the Leader Showcase as I share my thoughts after spending time with Yellow Captain Kid, discussing what I learned from the deck and where I think it currently sits in the format. After that, I recap my week in the hobby, where I took both Green Shanks and Purple Kaido proxy lists to locals for testing, sharing my early impressions and how each deck felt ahead of their official release.

We take a look at how the latest support is set to give decks like Red/Green Luffy and Green Mihawk a huge boost, highlighting some of the key cards that could shake up the current meta. We also dive into every OP-17 reveal so far, discussing the leaders that stand out to me the most and which ones I believe could be leading the charge once the next set releases. Later in the episode, I share some thoughts on player behaviour within the One Piece TCG community. We talk about the importance of showing respect to one another, why certain phrases and attitudes can be damaging to the game, and how we can all help create a more welcoming and positive environment for players of every level.

This week on Mid Piece, we dive into one of the biggest conversations currently happening in the One Piece Trading Card Game community....Power creep. I give my thoughts on whether the game is moving too fast, why Purple Enel feels incredibly strong right now, and why some players already believe OP16 could push the deck out of the meta before it’s had time to fully settle. We also take a look at my week in the hobby as I continue testing Green Dracule Mihawk at locals, break down some of the newly revealed cards coming in OP16 this June, and finish things off by answering questions sent in from the community.
