The Strategic Nightmare of Marshall D. Teach
Meet the newest emperor of the block: Marshall D. Teach—aka Blackbeard. He comes with a challenging deck-building requirement and an ability that demands respect, or maybe fear! His effect stops all On Play abilities, which might seem like a drawback (especially in the same color as Gecko Moria, OP06-086). But here’s the twist: you can turn this downside into a game-changing weapon.
Imagine flipping the script on leaders like Monkey D. Luffy (ST13-003) and Enel (OP05-098) during crucial turns. Blackbeard’s ability isn’t just a hurdle—it’s a strategic nuke, stopping your opponent’s momentum when it matters most.
The true brilliance comes with the OP09 support tailored for this prison-style leader. Cards like My Era…Begins!!, Laffitte, and Hachinosu churn through your deck to find the key pieces that lock your opponent down. Love it or hate it, this is the ultimate control strategy—and it works.
What do you think? Is Blackbeard a genius-level game plan or just a deck for the brave? Let us know your thoughts!
