#You literally don't need to play event cards in the event

It's getting pretty annoying to see the same inflation core every single event, so I decided to try out a deck composed exclusively of inflation cards to see if it could work.

Zero event cards, just inflation.

It worked. I won multiple matches with it. It was viable.

By the end of round 1, you can get your opponent down to 0 energy with 1-2 energy per turn.

There is literally zero counterplay to that. The opponent had to literally skip Round 2 and 3 and just hand me the win because he had 0 energy every single turn.

Why are you guys so insistent on making every single event low energy? If the idea of events is to shake up the rules, this accomplishes the exact opposite.

The fact that you don't even need any event cards is a testament to how broken they are, and it's rather upsetting to see such wasted potential for these daily events.

It reflects cue nowadays, unfun and full of inflation

It really begs the question if any of them are playing the game for real. We keep seeing posts that they like this and that card, but they don't seem to be playing the game anywhere close to a decent elo or in any of the events lately. It's been awful for months. And it taking them 2 months to fix the autotune spam only goes further to prove that

Normally I’d agree, that there’s too much inflation in events, but these events are meant to reflect cues past and use past energy rules

#

But I think putting a requirement to run x amount of the collection to prevent this from happening would be nice

Honestly world turtle didn't have a super long stay in the meta compared to what we'll see these days. After only a few months statue of Liberty came out and completely took over

#

Then that trend continued for what must have been most of the entirety of 2023

Lots of balance changes in regards to energy manipulation cards

My least favourite thing about the inflation core is how you just have to assume it works without even testing it
