Hyper Aggro update! After preliminary testing against mainly steel, there have been some changes to my variant of the deck!
#Lorcana
Cards on the way out:
Magic Broom - still a great one drop, just needed room for more two drops
Gale - Was rather underwhelming and felt
This is what I'm cooking with to start set 5! Hyper aggro has the legs to be very good this set, largely due to Daisy and this is the list I'm rocking with at the beginning!
#Lorcana
Cards to still consider:
- The Library, for synergies with Bog and Broom
- Bare Necessities
-

New version of Hyper Aggro with songs! The whole idea behind this version of the deck is to get out a lot of characters that can sing these small but high powered songs to push you to victory!
#Lorcana
Some thoughts:
- Ursula is the star of this deck. Behind able to sing any
Hyper Aggro 🟡🟣 v5 is here! The biggest changes are removing Snakes, Pinocchio, and Rapunzel's Towers, and here are the thoughts on that!
#Lorcana
- For Snakes, they honestly just felt redundant. The only card you truly want to bounce is Goat, which happens rarely I've found.
Happy Monday! Back with another decklist for set 5, and it's 🟢🟣 Tempo! This deck was on the outside looking in all of set 4 due to Bucky, but now that the squirrel is gone, I think this deck has some viable legs in the new format!
#Lorcana
Some thoughts:
- 1 drop Cogs that
Soooooo this Naveen is pretty good, and I thought I'd round up a list of the best songs to be playing FOR FREE with this guy!
#Lorcana
I chose four from each ink, let's make a thread!🧵🔽
Princess Steelsong! This deck is taking full advantage of the new Vanellope and Wreck-it-Ralph cards we got in Shimmering Skies to make a rather fun version of the deck. It also sees the return of Moana from set one to ready up all your princesses to protect them!
#Lorcana
Some
Purple Steel beat Aggro! This list is a version of 🟣⚫that's main focus is to beat aggro. With some fun new tools this feels like a great option playing into an aggro heavy meta!
#Lorcana
Some thoughts:
- Main baseline of the deck is to take advantage of rush characters and
It's been about a week since Shimmering Skies has released and I have some more thoughts on 🟡🟣 Hyper Aggro. I've included to images, one list that I believe are the essentials and should be in every deck, as well as different pieces that can be included!
#Lorcana
Wanted to
🟡🟢Lemon Lime Aggro! This is my first iteration of the deck for set 5, and I have some initial thoughts!
#Lorcana
- The deck's main idea is to play good characters down and go fast; nothing new there.
- The biggest thing is that this deck will struggle to draw, which is why I
🟡🔵Grand Pabbie Heal for Shimmering Skies! I've always been really interested by Pabbie and I think the deck got better in set 5! Here are some thoughts!
#Lorcana
The whole idea is to use cards like Pluto, Lantern, and Gaston to cheat out your higher costed characters early,
Want a way to deal with Daisy on turn 2? Here ya go.
Yes, 🟣🟡 does have ways to combat this, but this is one of the best ways to get to Daisy on two if you can
I've been thinking about the possibilities for a deck that being able to shift Kronk on turn 5, challenge, and playing Jim + location for free and this feels like a good starting place. This is still in very early stages so always open to suggestions, could be rather fun!
Alright
#Lorcana
I need some help. This is where my RA deck is at right now, but I want to add some spice in it for my last few set champs
Soooooo, drop your ideas down below for different cards I could add it to have some fun with
🎄Christmas evasion! I thought of bringing back the fun yet effective Ruby/Emerald Evasive deck for set 5! We now have some good draw actions that can help filter and get characters when we need them!
#Lorcana
Some thoughts:
- The main idea is to put characters on the board that
Another viable answer to answer Daisy on turn 2 for all those Amethyst enjoyers out there
#Lorcana
Draw a card + make a character a 4 strength on turn 2? Sign me up
Y'all Kuzco's second ability is not bad
It's in Sapphire, late game you will have a plethora of ink to give your characters multiple resists if you want. Can easily seal the game. This is the exact card Sapphire was looking for
#Lorcana
BREAKING - Between all the madness of D23 and the release of Shimmering Skies, Bucky, Squirrel Squeak Tutor, has gone missing and is presumed to be no longer apart of the Disney
#Lorcana
meta. Thoughts and prayers are with his players at this time.
So far testing 🟣🟡 hyper aggro the results have been:
2-6 🟡⚪️. Steelsong is the worst matchup the deck has, can win but have to get lucky.
2-3 🔴⚪️. Won on play both times, but against both removal colors can be tough
8-2 🔵⚪️. With how long this deck can take to set up you
1-1-2 (2GF) at first locals of set 5 with 🟡🟣!
#Lorcana
Matchups here, Blue Steel twice is tough and Elsa in 🟣🔴 is so good lol
RD1: 🔵🟣WW
RD2: ⚪️🔵LL
RD3: ⚪️🔵WL
RD4: 🟣🔴WL
Want to mention that EUIC for Pokemon had 2,605 players in it.
#Lorcana
is bumping to 2,048 for their first events EVER.
If that isn’t a definition of a game thriving idk what is.
Which ink do you think got the best cards in
#Lorcana
’s set 4?
My pick would be Ruby, I mentioned Mulan the other day and along with cards like Goofy, Sisu, and Be King Undisputed this ink got a lot more fun tools to use
And that’s a wrap on set champs for Ursula’s Return! Went 3/4 on Ursula’s and got two second place mats as well, so that’s elusive championship will have to wait til next set! Played the trusty 🟣🔴 all set going 17-5-2 over the course of the month!
#Lorcana
Have to give a big
Want to add one thing onto what Zach had to say about, relating it to sports and more specifically baseball.
The best baseball players in the world fail 7/10 times. Getting a hit 3 out of 10 times for an MLB hitter puts you among the greats.
Just a small thought. Keep your
For those that feel disappointment when not getting the results they want:
-There are steps to success. When you play, you are working towards a goal and there are always steps to it!
TCGs are a sport to me. My life revolves around them and I train to be the best that I can
Left to be revealed higher rarities for Shimmering Skies:
🟡2 Legendaries, 2 Supers
🟣1 Legendary
🟢2 Legendaries, 3 Supers

⚫1 Legendary
It should be a fun couple of weeks waiting for potential game-changing cards!

It’s been a wild ride this past year with
#Lorcana
. This game has really changed my life and gosh am I ready to see what the future holds. Here’s a few of my favorite pictures from the amazing first year of the game.
So for all the
#Lorcana
people out there, whether you’re attending D23 or not, I’m curious, do we expect any big news announcements? They do have the Past, Present, and Future panel, which makes me think about that the future could be about
Continentals/Worlds announcement? A
My professor has said “be prepared” like 5 times in the last minute.
Lorcana is so deeply ingrained into my day to day life that I see the damn card in my head every single time I hear it
This new
#Lorcana
meta has all the feels of set three. So many possibilities for decks to get better but also new decks to shine. Really happy where this game is at right now and what these cards can really do
Ursula and second place May secured!
#Lorcana
A very small 8 person set champ today, was able to win first two rounds and split finals. He wanted the champ mat so I took home the second place. One more go tomorrow!
Today we got a card I’m super excited to experiment with and see it’s possibilities, so I collected a list of the best on play cards from each ink to Revive from the discard (not including shimmering skies)
#Lorcana
A best ON IMPACT Revive thread🧵⬇️
Taking in everything from Pokemon Worlds has me super hyped for the future of Lorcana. I know we still have a bit to go to the point where we could be like that, but it is just so cool to see the possibilities.
Coming from Pokemon to Lorcana was a weird shift for me because look at how many one ofs are in this list lol. I know Pokemon is all about tutoring, but goodness if Lorcana ever gets to be like this one day that’ll be wild
Make that 65CP, with a 5-0 streak to first place in a 26-players League Challenge!
For you Miraidon believers or Mirai-curious people out there who had been asking for the list, here it is 💛
Changes from the CL Sapporo list:
-1 Don +1 Luna
-1 Charm + 1Vacuum
-1 DTE +1 Cart
Hey y’all.
#Lorcana
question. A ‘what would you do’ situation.
What would you do if you sat down at a tournament and when you sat down at a tournament someone else sat down at the same tournament for the same tournament to play in the tournament. Does Cogsworth get banished? /s
It’s time for set champ number two!!!
#Lorcana
Hoping to take the momentum I built yesterday and turn it into a top 4, need me some Stitch in my life!
⬇️Thread here for matchups (if I remember lol)
NEW LEGENDARY!
#Lorcana
Sooooo pay 5 to:
- make opp discard, Lucifer does that already
- give 2 strength to one character, many other cards do that already
- banish damaged character, this one I don’t mind
Could be fun, but I don’t think Anna is that great unfortunately

Happy Monday everyone! It’s officially Inklands release week! Which means the Gladiators will be getting hands on cards soon! More on that later tho! For this diary though, I wanted to take a look at how the idea of the Guantlet came about.
Last set it was the brush stroke texture should be in a museum look to all the enchanteds
Now it’s these black backgrounds,

#Lorcana
There are still FOURTY-SIX cards left to reveal for Ursula’s Return by Friday (full set is usually out a week before release)
How we thinking they’ll be released? App? Websites? Discord guessing game?? Still lots to learn over the next few days
#Lorcana
This honestly got me thinking about what Bucky would look like this set without the errata so I did the most despicable thing. Shame me all you want, I deserve it
#Lorcana
Here’s my sealed deck from my midnight release last night! Went 3-0, got 10 packs!
Medallion Weights and Diablo put in the work drawing me cards. Then Ariel came in and cleaned up with items at the end.
And hey, 5 legendaries in my prize packs ain’t too bad either
Finally got around to testing with 🟢🟣 and it has brought some interesting thoughts
#Lorcana
1) Lyle and Fox are aggro killers. A very legit answer to the deck
2) Cogs + Crab is as good as advertised
3) Kit can be really good in this meta in the early game
4) Amber/Emerald is a
I always have loved Ruby/Sapphire but never found a list I truly liked that worked well…until now
HUGE props to
@lorcana_s4iler
for this, obviously it’s early in testing but this is a really fun deck. Bloc de Ice (I took French lol) and Sisu are really fun together. Great deck
