I hope we get a Psychic WT event soon with Gardevoir and normal Mewtwo in it.Need those missions done somehow.
I need more battle music. This shit is too laid back.
>>56951350just mute the in game music and put on your own
>can't run anything but exeggutor ex and kingler coin flipper decks
>>56951356KO CRAB is based thoughever
>>56951339Next thread I'm making /ppg/
Do you see this game being fun to play longterm?Everyone is hyped and active right now around the launch, but I feel like the actual gameplay itself is bordering on being too simplistic.The main evidence of that being the fact that you can often tell whether you win or lose many turns in advance because there's only so many possibilities with this system.
>>56951341Blaine seems to be a good matchup against them.
Is leaf the worst deck type right now? Not counting steel or dragon yet since they don't have enough cards. Also wtf happened to the pink one
>bought nothing but fire packs>you can wonderpick all the best cards from it in the next eventNuoooh
>>56951365That's taken though. It's BEEN taken. For a while. If you're gonna change it to something sensible use /tcgp/
>>56951375yeah, and now the leaks are done and the threads are going to die most likely by December, its ours now
>>56951375Nope. We /ppg/gang here.
>>56951361I look exactly like this IRL when I'm playing, including the extra finger.
>>56951372What?
>>56951375>That's taken though. It's BEEN taken. For a while.Yeah, by us
>>56951369I see the simplicity as the right move though. Resets the power creep entirely, and allows interest in new set releases to be driven ever higher with only minor increments of power creep each time. Starting like this also helps target the oldfags with nostalgia for the original, since the meta is like what they grew up with. You can tell that's who they're targeting because they put all the gen 1 mons in. It makes sense to target them since they're the ones with not only cash to blow now that they're older, but also kids of their own they can introduce to the ranks.
/vppg/
>>56951369For me, personally since I like the pack opening and colelcting aspect, absolutely. I'll stick around for a while. At the very least until Gen3/4.And the events are well done imo. (Pvp event just having participation awards and another reward for sweats sits well with me)100% agree with you on the gameplay side of thing
>>56951377Those threads will keep digging for a long time.
>>56951372>stopped pulling fire packs before I got Arcanine EX / Magmarextra blaine copy is cool too
>>56951385This meta is nothing like the old TCG.
>>56951388bullshit, people will lose interest after the millionth unused generic npc text
>>56951388By getting necrobumped for weeks.
>>56951375>/ppg/ has been takenShit reason, we're more important so we can take it over>/tcgp/ is betterOkay now you have my attention
>>56951393>>56951395Kinda like this game, yeah.
I'll probably lose some interest once we get to the era of unrecognizable shit designs so gen 8 onwards I guess.
>>56951347I'll mald if it happens, since I just caved in and bought Gardevoirs.
>>56951402That's when they bring these out, for you bro.
>>56951391Not 1:1 there are plenty of differences, but the vibe seems intentionally similar to base set and jungle to appeal to the millennial crowd. Low HP, simple attacks, using stage 2s is impractical, etc. It's good for on-boarding. Then once they're hooked they can just feed us FOMO up the ass
>>56951402Gen 5 onwards**
>>56951369the base mechanics (turn structure, wincon, etc) feel appropiate to support a fun game, but to make the average gameplay actually fun we do need well designed cards that promote interaction and back-and-forth
stop changing the fucking general name your stupid fucking retards
>>56951412b-but muh dead general...
>>569514053D art is so soulless man. I wish they wouldn't do it and just use nice soulful art instead.
>>56951410I would do unspeakable things for a pair of evosoda cards in my deck right now
>>56951406As someone that has played on and off since then, 120 HP was the max for normal Pokemon until Gen 4 (And EX, which capped at 200) didn't exist until Gen 3.We're clearly way past comparisons to anything but Gen 4 at the very least.However, even base set had more complex attacks/abilities.
>>56951369This is meant to be a casual side game for people who want to collect cards or play a short game. It's perfect for normalfags on the toilet and japanese salarymen to play on their train rides.Your best bet is a new mode that is more similar in length to the actual TCG, like Duel Links vs Master Duel.
>>56951412thisshould be tcgp like it was before non-nz peasants joined
>>56951410This game needs some additional mechanic. Something like instants or maybe enchantments/attachments (berries?). There's just too little with the few items and trainers we have. Also the deck size is really small, maybe make 20 the minimum but allow up to 30.
>>56951419You're taking the point too literally to see the broad strokes. Sometimes to see the forest you gotta step away from the sudowoodo
>>56951420>similar in length to the actual TCGyou mean your opponent taking a 30 minute turn using their 40 trainers to search for the one energy card in their deck to end the game then and there?
>>56951420Official ladder for nonex mode would be nice
>>56951425>NZ getting it right for onceWow, it must be the first time since what, the lotr movies?
Any fellow colorlesschads? What's the best card(s) to build around
>>56951427Nah. It's night and day here.Granted, Gen 4 is the era where they made the game too complicated for its own good, and had to scale it back, so maybe Gen 5 is a better comparison.
>>56951400>multiple 500+ reply threads a day>235 replies after being up for three days full daysI wonder which general is getting necrobumped...
>>56951426>Something like instants or maybe enchantments/attachments (berries?)yr'oue thinking of tool cards
>>56951434Yeah, after how many months?Give it time, we'll get there.
>>56951432Wigglytuff and Weezing.
>>56951437>he admits his leakfag general is deadI accept your concession. Now get out.
>>56951432Trust the plan
THERES NOTHING TO DOTHERES NOTHING TO DOTHERES NOTHING TO DO

>braps on youhow do you respond without sounding angry?
>>56951446Sure you don't, bud.
>>56951445It's a PVP game.
I only have one charizard ex and one moltees exWhat two cards do I substitute for their misisng copies in my char deck?
>>56951455If I did, using /ppg/ wouldn't be an issue because I'd be searching for it anyways.
>>56951453>>56951457lmao
>>56951445You not grinding levels for free packs? You a whale? Go on. Level 100 awaits you.
>>56951459rapidash, to shit on people turn 3 with them
>>56951454>inhales and braps back
>>56951454what do whitneys braps smell like
>>56951460>ifNice try. You're not fooling anyone.
I’m gonna run a single basic and then double stage 1s and 2s for all my lines.If my initial set up fails then I’ve probably already lost. I’ll put 2 Pokédex in my deck so I can plan ahead.
The exp you get from online battles is too little, the bar barely moves after a battle, it feels like I have to win 100 battles for a level, it's not worth it.
>>56951457thats ptcgl
>>56951454Why would I bother not being angry? That's what the primeape deck is based on.
>game so devoid of content that /ppg/ os fighting over the name last 3 threadskek
Ja Leck mich fett and der Arsch Rosette
>>56951486>Machollo
>>56951485You level 100 already?
>>56951491how to level up other then buy packs
>>56951485>game so devoid of content that /ptpg/ is fighting over the name last 3 threadsFixed it for you
Does no ex actually make the game better or does it just shift what dominates the meta?
>>56951496grinding a million matches
Finally got win #50 with the rat, ironically my draws have been so shit that I struggled much less with zard.Now into the trash it goes, time to test Arbok + Pidgeot.
>>56951453just Iike in masters
>>56951502it just shifts the meta over to other decks. it will be fun to play for a while but then everyone would be bored after a month.
>>56951502it's not as used so it will feel like the first even if the second happened to be true
TOMORROW FOR CONTENT!!!!!!!!!!r
>>56951502Base Lapras is arguably better than EX Lapras. The Blaine deck is the best non ex deck by far but its weakness to water just makes me want to die.
>>56951504>struggled less than zardhttps://youtu.be/pku8KWjSVmEUntil you have matches of triple tails or missing a stage. I want to like that deck, but my opponents have more luck flipping Heads than I do
>>56951496Play the game
Favorite base art?https://ptcgp.raenonx.cc/en/card or codex in the OP for cards
>>56951540
>>56951402They'll never stop KANTOOOOOing, they can't help themselves
So now that we know it's truly predetermined the moment you pay for the Wonder Pick, and not by what card you pick, does it boil down to "Do I want to spend 1-4 Stamina/X hourglasses on a 1/5 chance to get this card I want?" Are there any believers that our choice still matters?
>>56951561I'm still under the impression that the only reason all 5 were the same was because after the first pick, the game recognized that was the card he got from that specific users wonder pick the first time and defaulted to giving it to him on the other 4 android emulators he had running
>>56951561I've yet to see any real proof that it's predetermined.
>>56951540these are the two that have made it in game but I love all of Asako Ito's cardshttps://www.serebii.net/card/dex/artist/asakoito.shtml
>>56951573
>>56951551Based Kniggler bro.
>spends a minute to play a pokeball
>>56951567If this is the case, then couldn't he log into the same account on a couple of different phones and try to hit them all at the same time? It would either show an error on some of the phones, or something, right?
>>56951350The master level remix is nice. They should use it for events.
>>56951567That sounds like a pain to code. Much easier to assign the winning card to the wonder pick the moment it's presented to you.
Lol just played someone who couldn't get their mewtwo in 4 turns
LOL
>>56951600you just know he's in this thread right now
>>56951561>truly predetermined the moment you pay for the Wonder Pick, and not by what card you pickthis doesn't change anything from our side though
>>56951593Not really. Once you pick a card, that's the card you get. If you have multiple emulators open, it doesn't matter. The first card you picked was already given to your account. No gaming the system, sorry.
>>56951600There's no filter? I'll go with ヒトラー once I can change it.
>>56951561>wonder picks are predeterminedProof??
>>56951612Dude, trust me.
>>56951561It's the same with the 10 packs you can rotate
>>56951593wp = getWp(playerId, packId)if (wp == null) { wp = rand(0,5) setWp(playerId, packId, wp)}return wp
>>56951625nah>b-but, if you close the game on the pack carousel and reopen it, you'll have new cards!yeah, the cards from the pack that was front and center when you close the game
>>56951633They datamined it's predetermined
>another Full Art Rapidash>only use case for Rapidash is a budget Fire deckFfffuck.
>>56951633>the cards from the pack that was front and centerProbably wrong, but it wouldn't even change the odds
>>56951633Your choice really doesn't matter in the pack opening. They just do it for the gambling addicts and ritual tards
We LOVE turn1 misty
>>56951651bro you're Jynx?
Don't know if crown rares appear in wonderpick, but here's friend ID: 5350714969570997
>>56951625It's not quite the same. Packs are determined the moment you hit the open button.WP is determined the moment you click on the card.Functionally makes no real difference, but the big key here is that with the packs, they don't want you to be able to back out, because impulsive rollers sometimes do that.
>>56951661grats but no
>>56951661they don't, but added
>>56951643Proof?
>>56951561you're pearl clutching at something that does not affect the probability of getting a card in any given way. it's 1/5 if it's predetermined and 1/5 if you pick the card. put it another way, there's no "picking strategy" that moves this probability in any way, shape or form
>>56951643I WILL keep opening only bent packs and there's nothing you can do to change my mind
>opponent always has their entire gardevoir line and mewtwo exIt's so fucking weird how consistent that deck is with stage 2 evos
>>56951675What do you do when no bent packs appear?
>>56951682meanwhile my nidorinos like to fuck around having gay sex at the very bottom of the fucking deck
>>56951683spin the carousel until I feel a slight vibration and then open that one
>>56951369no I already stopped playing and i just open packs
>>56951486>it's a cat>Mauziwunderbar
>>56951561It makes no difference in the least that the card spot doesn't influence your choice. It's also just like normal pulls, so you can't discredit one without the other>normal pull>3 different pack types that form the subset of possible cards>you can select which one you want to pull from>subset has a hundred or so cards>which cards could appear in it are public info with exact odds>picking gives you 5 of them>which ones you get is determined when you pull>the card wheel makes no difference>wonder pick>each of the dozen or so wonder pick groups form its own subset of possible cards>you can select which one you want to pull from>subset has exactly 5 cards>which cards could appear in it are public info with exact odds>picking gives you 1 of them>which one you get is determined when you pull>the card spot makes no differenceGetting mad over the card spot meaning nothing is just like getting mad that picking normal packs with bent corners or flipped backwards means nothing. It's all just animations post-determination, you've already thrown the slot machine lever. Nothing changed.
>>56951740You’ve got it backwards. I’m not mad over card spots not mattering. I’m trying to spread the good word and open anons eyes to reality. Card spots not mattering will set you free. There is no way to influence the outcome, so enjoy your ride on Lady Luck and hope for a satisfying climax.
Parasect is underrated.
I hate hate hate hate HATE that they made gardevoir's ability be able to be used on the bench AND by multiple of them. Every single psychic deck in the meta will require 2 full lines for YEARS because they didn't restrict it more. Being able to get 2, maybe even 3 energy consistently EVERY turn is just too valuable to sideline. At least with misty you have to burn one of a maximum two copies of it, and the effectiveness depends solely on how much she loves you (she does not). Meanwhile this SLUT is out here handing out free quickies every day guaranteed, and she's down for threesomes too.
>>56951759It needs too much energy.
>>56951782They take a lot of space in the deck and maybe future meta psychic cards will not require 3+ energy.
>>56951758anyone whose mood would change over card spots mattering or not most likely doesn't have the mental capacity to appreciate your message
>>56951782so what youre saying is that misty can sometimes get very wet and wants to be flipped for hours
>>56951369Nope. I have played other card games like hearthstone and shadowverse and they peaked in the first few expansions.I am expecting the same for this game, I bet 2 years later every fucking pokemon will have their own abilities
>>56951782>>56951796God I hate this place sometimes
>babe get in here new unhinged copypasta just dropped
>>56951782Anon, the difference between Misty and Gardevoir is that, as you yourself said, you need to actually set Gardevoir up, it's not just one card you play to get an effect, it's 3 cards that have to be played in sequence.I wouldn't worry too much to be honest, it'll still be good but I expect future sets will include more bench disruption effects, which will make back-bench cards like Gardevoir that are only good while on the bench easier to deal with.
mp4 test
>>56951782The only reason Gardevoir is even run in the current meta is because Mewtwo EX's main attack burns 2 energy to use.I honestly doubt people would run an entire evo line that takes 3 turns to set up in a deck where the main attacker doesn't need to burn energy and doesn't gain anything by having excess energy attached to it.Or in other words, if the next 'Heavy Hitter' Psychic pokemon has a 4 energy attack that is just a normal attack (as in, it doesn't burn any energy to use), no one would EVER run Gard in that deck since in the best case (you go first AND open/draw all 3 stages on curve), it gets you to 4 energy 1 turn faster and in EVERY other case, it just clogs your hand then proceeds to do absolutely nothing of value.In short, you have terrible card assessment skills, not every Psychic deck will run Gardevoir, only those that actually NEED a continuous source of free energy to fuel their primary strategy will.
>>56951828I swear it feels like I get those 3* immersive cards more than 2* cards.
Is this a pedophile?
I fucked up, my second account is now much better than the first one where I already used the premium pass trial. Is there any way I can get the trial on the second one? I refuse to pay a single cent on gachas
>>56951845>slowpoke profileYes
I just opened up 10 packs and only got Pokémon that appear in all packs. I didn’t even get any new ones. 6 zebstrika. Fuck you charizard, I’ll start opening up Pikachu packs u bitch
>>56951740They're not the same, because the timing of when it's determined differs.
>>56951844>humblebrag
>Finally dip below 3 Stamina>Immediately a double appearsI don't even really want it, but still.
>>56951849Hey, I'm using slowpoke and I'm a huge titted bimbos/oneesans lover.
this meta is boring. we need more turbo. not being able to discard 2/3rds of my deck on my first turn makes me anxious
>>56951902Facist
I'm gonna fill a complaint to the European Union. This game is rigged as fuck.Why the fuck do you never draw hands with 0 pokémon like in the normal game? It's the proof that the game is riggedCurrently proofreading my mail, I added video recordings too.
>>56951933True, never ever had an opening hand without a base pokemon
>>56951910Why is this weak to grass
>>56951893Hey, I just wonder picked a Full Art Lapras just a second ago!It was a double too, but it was two Lapras instead of a Lapras and a Pinsir.
>>56951933source?
>>56951924Fattits
>>56951948use saucenao you troglodyte
Pika is the biggest faggot deck there is
>>56951980Then why don't I play it?
>>56951933>Why the fuck do you never draw hands with 0 pokémon like in the normal game?Its to make games quicker, it just resets the hand in the backend until you get a hand with basic pokemon
>>56951996so it's rigged, thank you very much for confirming it anonThe game is going to be dead pretty quickly anyway
>>56951980Yeah, it's so fucking dumb.
I have a boyfriend and I play Exeggutor deck
>>56951997Because if you have no monster you lose by default and you would lose from the start? Ofc it's rigged everything is these days>Weighted wonder picks>Bad luck protection packs >Draw>Auto mode retardness to throw the game
>>56951980Just because you play it doesn't make it a faggot deck, sorry.
>>56951998If there's auto mode I finna set up a auto clicker and just let it play for a 1000 wins
>>56951998Mewtwo mogs Pikachu stop pretending Pikachu is the strongest deck in this game
>>56952033both are braindead to play, but at least mewtwo you can get fucked trying to build gardevoir
>>56952033Well, I manage to beat M2 decks just fine, but I need to be extremely lucky to have a chance to beat a Niggerchu deck.
>>56952036>>56952051Pikachu can get fucked by not pulling enough basic pokemon from the deckPikachu can get fucked if you only pull Zapdos because there's no way to "energy cheat" in this deckThe deck is strong and obviously destroys Articuno but to pretend that Mewtwo gets destroyed too is a big lie.Look at the tournament statistics too. Mewtwo is way more consistent.
I just want full art Sabrina bros...
Germans pls.
>>56952070trolled you good not even german btw
I love this fucker lads
>>56952033Educate yourself.
>>56951339I survived 9 turns without getting a single Lightning energy, and yet people would have me believe that these bastards at tpc/dena actually playtested this fuckass game
>>56952063you can pokeball for pikachu, and every other basic pokemon that pikachu runs. you can't search for kirlia or gardevoir, so if they happen to be at the very bottom of your deck, which happens more often than you think, then you are in fact fucked
I need trading so someone can finally give me an Aerodactyl and free me from wonderpick hell
I would honestly put Pikachu in S tier and Mewtwo in B or C tier. I lose every other game on Mewtwo because of garbage draw luck. Pretty sure my Pika win rate is above 90%.
>>56952094I just pulled 2 aerodactyl from one pack, I just want my rainbow articuno ex
>>56951416I like the ones of miniatures or clay sculptures though
