    Episode 139 "The Miracle Luffy Build” 26/10/2026

    In Episode 139 of the Mid Piece TCG Podcast, I take a closer look at the new so called “Miracle” build of Red/Green Luffy. I discuss how the introduction of the EB-05 Jewelry Bonney package transforms the deck from a slow, defensive strategy into an aggressive go wide deck with a powerful draw engine. I then recap my week in the hobby, including my latest run in the Chinoize Cup and trips to two different locals. I break down my games, results and the matchups I faced across all three events before rounding out the episode by answering questions from the community.

    Episode 138 "Mulligan or Regret It?” 21/10/2026

    In Episode 138 of the Mid Piece TCG Podcast, I begin with a ramble about one of the most frustrating parts of the One Piece Card Game: watching a deck you love go from being relevant in one meta to struggling in the next because of power creep. I then bring back Fundamentals 101, beginning with one of the first decisions you make in every game, whether to keep or mulligan your opening hand. I discuss what you should be looking for, why the decision goes beyond simply searching for the perfect curve, and how getting it wrong can affect the rest of the game. Finally, I recap my week in the hobby and my latest trip to locals with Purple Kaido before rounding out the episode by answering questions from the listeners.

    Episode 137 "Mihawk Banned, Kaido Delivers” 14/10/2026

    In Episode 137 of the Mid Piece TCG Podcast, I briefly say farewell to Green Mihawk as the ban officially takes effect and discuss how his removal could open up the OP-17.5 meta. I also look at some of the leaders receiving new support in EB-05 and consider which decks could benefit most heading into the new format. I then recap my week in the hobby, beginning with my first Chinoize Cup Online before moving on to the 128 player Store Championship at DarkSphere. I break down my run with Purple Kaido, the matchups I faced and how I managed to reach the Top 8 and secure my invitation to the Season 2 Finals in London this January.

    Episode 135 "Mihawk’s Days Are Numbered” 30/9/2026

    This week on Mid Piece, we need to talk about the elephant in the room… Green Mihawk is officially getting banned. With the ban coming into effect on October 12th, I have a long and open conversation about Bandai’s decision, my thoughts on the ban, what it means for the game moving forward, and how it feels to be losing a deck that has become such a huge part of my competitive journey. We then move into my week in the hobby, with some focused playtesting ahead of the Brotherhood Brawl as I continue preparing for the London regionals. Finally, we round out the episode with questions from the community, including a really fun discussion about designing brand new Leader cards for One Piece characters who haven't received one yet. What would their abilities look like, and how could you make them actually reflect their powers and personality from the series? Plenty to unpack this week, some serious discussion, some competitive One Piece, and a little bit of card-design madness to finish us off.

    Episode 134 "Is OP17 Actually a Good Meta?” 23/9/2026

    With London Regionals fast approaching, it’s time to step away from the endless Mihawk vs Kaido debate and take a proper look at the rest of the OP17 format. This week, I’m talking through the decks making waves across the meta, from Nico Robin, Sabo and Xebec to Black Luffy, Purple Enel, Luffy & Ace, Red Ace and more. I then rambler about mental fortitude and how important it is for big events like regionals and large scale events. Plus, I give an update on my London testing, look ahead to the Brotherhood Brawl, and, as always, we finish with questions from the listeners. on't miss out on the excitement and in-depth discussions of Mid Piece: A TCG Journey Podcast.

    Episode 133 "So… What Now?” 16/9/2026

    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.

    Episode 131 "Next Stop: Utrecht” 2/9/2026

    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. With that, the preparation is done. The next stop is Utrecht for Nationals! Don't miss out on the excitement and in-depth discussions of Mid Piece: A TCG Journey Podcast.

I then recap my week in the hobby before exploring some of the new decks and strategies beginning to emerge from the OP-17 format. I discuss the Fish-Man package finding a home in Green Mihawk, the growing use of the Big Mom package across Yellow Enel and Blue/Yellow Boa Hancock, and its most disgusting form yet in Purple/Yellow Nico Robin.

I break down the cards you should look out for in your six packs, which cards are worth including in your deck, which ones you should avoid, and the key fundamentals that can help you succeed in the pre-release format.

I share my frustrations about how this affects genuine players and the wider One Piece Card Game community. I then recap my week in the hobby, where I took Green Mihawk to locals on both Tuesday and Friday.

    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.
