This is probably the dumbest thing they could've done. This essentially kills trading once this pack becomes tradeable. You will never again be able to get the exact card you need, and will instead get the other version, because they count as the same for wishlist. They literally broke collecting, the only thing that was still holding this shitheap together

you can check the set for the card before you accept the trade, but yes, you will 90% of the time get fucking retards giving you the EX set version
>>
>>58328982
>>58328974
Yup, shit's fucked now. The only real way of completing a set is to go back to trading apps and requesting EXs from that particular set while excluding deluxe.

>>58329870
The game should end if they disconnect
>>
>>58329892
It gives them a window to come back in case it's like, their signal dropped on the subway, or they got a phone call mid match that knocked them out the game, or their battery died and they're fast enough to get the charger and boot up. I think that's fair. From the game's perspective there's no way to really determine if someone ragequit or genuinely had a mishap.

But what should happen is a penalty for frequent disconnects. This kind of system is pretty common, even Spatoon does it with its shitty netcode that genuinely knocks you out of games even if it's no fault of your own.

If you have several disconnects in the span of x hours, weighted against how many points you are away from losing during those disconnects, then you should get docked rank points. There should be a warning beforehand like Spatoon does it so if someone genuinely is just getting fucked by bad connection they cool off for a bit until it's resolved. And if they keep stopping at the notification and continue, the grace period becomes longer and longer.

I wonder if they'll raise the level cap when the B series comes out.

This isn't an option because Japan is a huge marker for them, especially when it comes to whales. And Japanese people play this in the subway on the commute to work @ 6:30 AM, where they'll be spending the rest of their day and night, and then play again on the commute home @ 11PM.

To be fair, “looking into” doesn’t = a promise or even plan to actually do it. They made that notice at the height of the trade debacle so I wouldn’t be surprised if they swept it under the rug. Or maybe they’ll let us trade A 2 stars when B officially releases, who knows
>>
>>58330455
Looking to accommodate probably means that the special rare ticket that still has no use will be used for them, so it'll be like a one time deal pretty much.

Zero change they let us just freely trade them. It'd be financial suicide. Their revenue depends on those cards being inaccessible.

can someone explain to me how a card like mars is balanced? It's like, oh you ko'd me? now you drop 1 one card. Like it's objectively so fucking unfair. You are PUNISHED for winning and taking a ko, makes the game feel so random and shitty
>card games are random by nature
sure you always play by probability but reducing me to 1 card because i punished your stupid EX lead feels fucking awful. How am i supposed to slop through ko'ing a single EX pokemon, then expected to be able to ko ANOTHER with just 1 card in my hand??
>>
>>58330716
god, i wish we could go back to the days when mars was actually something worth complaining about
>>
>>58330721
mars is part of what makes EX decks so broken dude, it was good DAY 1 and never changed. If the card didn't exist Darkrai Giratina absolutely would not be the best deck in the game, it's so vital to cheesing out other players. Your darkrai gets ko'd and now you have to somehow ko a 150 HP giratina that may have a fucking cape.
>>

If i can make suikek players seethe by shoving their enormous hands up their ass then its worth it

>>
>>58330741
Jesus...
>>
>>58330751
not really, there's always vital cards that you need to perserve in your hand for end game like cyrus red etc. Even silvally which is burning cards every turn doesn't end up with empty hands often.
>>
>>58330751
Yes and Suicune/Greninja punish you for putting shit into play. Not to mention its only reasonable to hold some trainer cards back until they can be better made use of.
>>
>>58330744
How would this even work? I guess instead of picking the deck you want when queuing up, you start looking for a match first and then have to pick your deck after bans have been made? If ALL of your decks have the banned card then you lose?

Like what happens when people ban Oak? Or maybe we just make it for Pokemon, that'd be the least disruptive?
>>
>>58330765
it would just be based of percentage usage.

Energy ramp is too much of an advantage for going second. It should change to either starting with one extra card and no energy if you go second, or you get an extra card going first if the second player still gets an extra energy.

My biggest issue to complete packs is how scarce 3D cards are.
I can always get a pair of all the 4D of each pack but I always end up missing plenty of 3D, and I have so few dupes I can't trade much for the ones I miss either.
>>
what happens if i have one ga and one deluxe copy of a card and trade the ga away? does the dex stay filled and show the deluxe card if i tap on it?

What if instead of making cards bigger than one star tradeable, they add a mode where you challenge someone and bet a card (from 2 stars to up) and whoever wins gets the card the opponent was betting?
>>
>>58334098
Oh, and you can't concede, if someone dares to disconnect, they lost the card they were betting (the opponent doesn't lose their card but doesn't get anything either).
>>
>>58334107
>(the opponent doesn't lose their card but doesn't get anything either).
Why wouldnt I disconnect then?
Id rather my opponent not get anything
>>
>>58334115
Ok, change it, if you dare to disconnect the opponent is given the win AND your card.
>>
>>58334115
I think he means that the guy who didn't disconnect gets nothing and loses nothing, while the one who did loses his card.
>>
>>58334098
>challenge myself on alt account
>feed myself all my alt accounts' 2-star cards
hmm
>>
>>58334005
Most pocket players expect their decks to auto win them the game in 3-4 turns. They can’t handle making gameplay decisions beyond that
>>
>>58334134
Yeah, that is what I mean but anon said he "would rather lose their card" so let's change it to "disconnecting gives the opponent your card".

>>58334137
I guess you can do that of you many rare cards that you don't give a fuck about, I can't think in any countermeasure.
>>
>>58334146
*If you have many rare...
>>
Theyd just make it so you can trade 2 stars maybe once a month. That or fuse all pack points, thats so stupid btw. Points being wasted on the packs you opened is bad, even if i were to get all my points combined it would add up to maybe 2700 total. Thats enough for 2 rainbows or only one crown, this games pity system is BAAAD
>>
Can't find any deck I like playing.
>>
>>58334098
>>58334107
Ok, after rethinking let's make that whoever wins byt any method (actual battle victory, the opponent conceding or they disconnecting like a bitch) gets the other's card, multi account abuse is possible as I can't think any way to stop it but I am sure DENA doesn't think there are many with multi accounts because "is fucking stupid! What's the point?!"
>>
>>58334169
>I can't think any way to stop it
Dont allow it in private matches
>>
>>58334175
YOU FUCKING GENIUS!
>>
>>58334164
This, if you fused pack points then people would actually spend more in pocket. They’d see their investment have more pay off as it could allow more pack points to use on future sets. Why would i spend on a set if my pack points are gonna go to waste unless i reach 1250? That takes around 6 weeks for me to do if i open one pack nonstop.
>>
>>58334165
Its very hard this meta, as suicune and darkrai rape everything. The mars/red card everyone runs makes buzzwole miserable to play, i never have the cards i need in my hand.
>>
>>58334164
They should add an option to turn cards into pack points, only for cards of 2 stars to above and only for points of their respective sets.
>>
can we just let niggas trade 2 stars and stop punishing actual players while trying and failing to fight chink bots
>>
>>58334188
You'd still need a 2-star to trade for others, so I don't see why they don't allow it.
>>
>>58334194
Waifucards make the most of money from Whales.
>>
My free pass has 10 days left, will I make it or I should star getting cheap cards from pack points?

That'll be easy to get naturally.
>>
>>58329822
Do what I do: do something else and let the timer tick and hold them hostage. I've had at least two rage quitters concede after disconnecting because I wouldn't let them ego dodge.

The terrorists of pocket are silvally and giratina agreed? they damaged the metagame in irredeemable ways.
>giratina
high hp basic ex finisher, 130 damage and generates its own energy. Can be slapped onto any team, has been meta every fucking set.
>silvally
ruined the tempo of the game and invalidated all other non-ex cards by being low energy cost, colorless and having its own supporter search.
>>
>>58334181
It's not Suicune it's Greninja. Makes it very hard to play any deck that is slightly unconventional or needs build up.

It literally does not matter what deck you play so long as it hits the bare minimum of "can win games". You're going to be forced to be between 50 and 60% win rate no matter what, maybe higher if you get extremely lucky and go on a 10+ win streak.

If skarmory had support helping it when going first id fuck with it more. Steel needs a rework, all the damage negation abilites need to stop being tied to an attack and just a natural ability like melmetal. That or it should protect you against indirect damage.

You sit on like 2 energy and play a bunch of defensive cards. Other steel decks need it more.

Are there even steel baby pokemon at all?
>>
>>58336082
Nope, its imbalanced, they randomly gave the privilage to water fire and electric but no one else.
>>
>>58336091
I dont mean "are there any" as in, in this game. Im pretty sure there just isnt any steel type baby pokemon at all.

They could still give it to Grass, Fighting, and Psychic via Budew, Bonsly, and Mime Jr. or Chingling. But Metal and Darkness are out of luck

they could always justt add Terastal babies

His damage sucks but you can do some silly Cyrus stuff.
Raikou, Oricorio, Zeraora and A.Raichu is the only good deck that I see from time to time.
Magnezone also appears often but it's not as good, but I also run tanky pookemon so take this with a grain of salt.
