[south tiger]

yes

[mossy stratus]

17 wins out of 35, honestly pretty happy for my first tournament

Was fun

[south tiger]

only 4 hours left to play

[rose perch]

lol people might have to beg for matches the last hour

from people that drop out

[twilit steppe]

Oh that's cool, hopefully you can do even better next time

[rose perch]

is there any chance the rank 17th guy can get in a bunch of games tomorrow morning and take a spot? Really wish we can see past 16

[mossy stratus]

Yess, and next time we'll have a lot more cards to play with so hopefully a more diverse meta

[crystal tapir]

Probably a bunch of pros with 2X games not in lb rn so yea very high chance

[rich wasp]

debating whether or not i should wake up early to try playing my last 4 games

i think i should be safe?

[twilit steppe]

I feel like you definitely qualified, if you don't play 4 games it just affects your seeding🤓

[crystal tapir]

Im probably not that safe considering how many people havent finished their games

[twilit steppe]

Oh if you're not safe (hopefully you are safe) then I'm even more not safe haha...

[rich wasp]

wait why is this still going

did they remove the 10 min thing

[frozen pike]

try queueing again

bot might be broke during

[rich wasp]

just visual i guess

not actually in queue

ok cool

[errant stream]

the queues later will be a fkin party

[twilit steppe]

I'm kind of relieved I've finished all of my matches.. because I feel like many great players will queue in the very last window haha

[raven wyvern]

oh, perfect time to practice then

[wary heron]

[safe plaza]

Very cool to see certain players back on the leaderboards

I see some Alpha 1 and 2 peeps

And also Beta... I spy a pigeon

[errant stream]

[lethal spruce]

[south tiger]

where are you rn ark?

[errant stream]

7 loses

[south tiger]

asking cause I need to plan for my seeding

[errant stream]

ur not gonna finish all matches?

[south tiger]

I haven't decided

but yeah

I think I won't finish all of them

[errant stream]

ill finish all of my matches

[south tiger]

good

please push me down to 15

[errant stream]

feeling confident not going below 16?

[south tiger]

yes

if I go below 16 that's what my fate decides

and I'll just quit tcg until 3.7 lol

[errant stream]

fair enough

[ocean gulch]

Can't even imagine doing that in asia

[errant stream]

[ocean gulch]

Did u unlock ur Inazuma cards

[errant stream]

in NA account?

no

why would i

[ocean gulch]

U will be at disadvantage

[errant stream]

wdym

it's not like im gonna use itto

[ocean gulch]

True

[errant stream]

[ocean gulch]

But u will hv to grind it in 3.7 probably if some Inazuma characters drop by chance

And they are good

[errant stream]

[rose perch]

are people not going to finish games?

[errant stream]

since no one is grinding much... looks like it

[rose perch]

i guess no one is matching. whew probably safe then. 1 more hour

[south tiger]

ark is definitely surpassing you sooner or later

just pray there's no one else playing lmao

[errant stream]

havent faced ting yet

[south tiger]

ting is hsr'ing already

[errant stream]

[ancient spindle]

[safe plaza]

LMAO

[errant stream]

[wary heron]

surely we can gather the entire tcg player population in NA next patch

[ancient spindle]

But after this surely there will be some Asia players move out

[twilit steppe]

Omg I'm still on the leaderboards somehow.. yay

[misty harbor]

Lemme fix that—

[twilit steppe]

[twilit steppe]

[misty harbor]

[rugged crane]

hahahah nice

[crystal tapir]

ting purposely stopped playing to strategically pair up against me

[errant stream]

@crystal tapir you can do it i believe

[crystal tapir]

🥺

[rose perch]

😦 17th place off by 1 win...

if only SI didnt play last night I would have made it haha.

[wary heron]

[twilit steppe]

That's me🙋‍♀️😭☹️

[strange peak]

Make your bets on the most played decks during knockouts:

1. MMEC
2. Anti-MMEC
3. Freeze probably?

[wary heron]

i hate to say

but its probably the first one

mm*c

[crystal tapir]

What is anti mmec xD

[twilit steppe]

Klee vape? (just kidding) 🤓

[strange peak]

Any combination of Barbara + Jean or Sucrose/Kaeya/Bennet + Kokomi/Diona/Mona

Plus 1~2 Xiao cards

[wary heron]

[twilit steppe]

Yay

[south tiger]

[errant stream]

Prince Cup coming soon as well

so it's definitely time to go back

[south tiger]

I'd love to return to asia

but I could actually enter top 16 here

so I'll just stick to NA for tavern

[ancient spindle]

Asia missed you

[wary heron]

i am not confident in asia anymore

[ancient spindle]

Next patch surely top 16 asia

[crystal tapir]

just scale knockout seats for regions with more people

[soft berry]

[ocean gulch]

[wary heron]

[frozen pike]

[polar barn]

[strange peak]

https://tenor.com/view/klee-genshin-impact-gif-25934675

[pearl fern]

Just wanted to say congrats to our finalists and everyone who made the top 16! Had a blast casting the games and technical problems aside, we had some really good matches for NA. Hope everyone's hyped for the upcoming patch!

[subtle ibex]

thx so much blep for hosting!!!

[errant stream]

[frozen pike]

tysm Blep!

[crystal tapir]

ggs!

[stiff crypt]

Same, time to move to other server

[rose perch]

😦 didnt win welkin

[crystal tapir]

Where us welkin announced?

[twilit steppe]

In the tournament updates

[twilit steppe]

Also same

[analog moat]

No welkin 😔

[crystal tapir]

Thats for the 2nd alpha

[twilit steppe]

Omg I thought by 'including Welkins' they meant the welkin giveaways haha..

[rose perch]

ohhh so we still got a chance for the Cat's Tail Gathering Season 1. nice

[lethal spruce]

[wary heron]

[rugged crane]

https://act.hoyoverse.com/ys/event/astracarnival/index.html?lang=en-us#/newsDetail/111615
how does this work

[wooden dawn]

Have the "S1 Tournament" Welkin Winners announced yet?

[frozen pike]

[lucid sable]

Ah yeeeeup CTG

Never noticed that till now

[wary heron]

yeeeeeah

typo

[lucid sable]

Nah….

[wary heron]

TCG became CTG

[lucid sable]

Defo on purpose

It’s not Genius Invocation Trading Card Game smh it’s actually Genius Invocation Card Trading Game

[rose perch]

Just got a welkin was it from here? Did they deliver already?

Also isn’t CTG just cat tail gathering? Or am I crazy?

[lucid sable]

Maybeeeee

[limpid orbit]

@rose perch same here, I was worried I got hacked

I think they'll announce the winners soon

[twilit steppe]

I think I got Welkin from here too, omg this the first time I experienced any ingame purchase ever haha

[lethal spruce]

Omg congrats ryssa

[twilit steppe]

Thank you

[bold widget]

Yeah this is correct, it's not a typo lol

[frozen pike]

CTG magically stands for Cat's Tail Gathering

totally not Trading Card Game

[subtle ibex]

no correlation at all

[wary heron]

[jolly stream]

Hello, how do you qualify for the big majors tournaments?

[onyx bison]

rank top 16 during the prelims

[jolly stream]

Thank you so much for responding, How often do they have these really big tourneys?

[onyx bison]

its a seasonal thing, so every 1-3 months?

[raw root]

Has anyone that qualified for knockout received an invitation for the prince cup?

[twilit steppe]

I think they don't invite people outside NA🤣😂☹️😭

Because I didn't get any invitation either

[jovial needle]

[raw root]

Yea ik that its stated in the details

Gonna switch to asia in s3 for a chance

[twilit steppe]

Oh sorry for misunderstanding... good luck in the S3 Asia if you do participate🤓👍

[raw root]

Just looking at asia leaderboard scares the life out of me

[twilit steppe]

Tbh same🙊

[crystal tapir]

Asia much more players probably

[jovial needle]

how tough is it to qualify in na knockouts

[onyx bison]

depends how many players join

the more players the more wins you need

probably need atleast 32-3 or 33-2

[jovial needle]

this isnt asia

[onyx bison]

well i mean its been promoted by the official accounts .. but probably 30-5 is enough to get you top 16

nvm around 25 wins could probably do it

[bold widget]

https://tenor.com/view/here-we-go-again-gta-gif-20483040

[lucid sable]

:0

So it begins again

[lucid sable]

How'd you get that role?

[spare turret]

those who got into top 16 last tavern got it i think

[lucid sable]

Ah

;-;

[crystal tapir]

real question is when will i get dendro element :/

[lucid sable]

Just constantly change

Somebody's maybe made a spreadsheet for what answers lead to what

[crystal tapir]

YOOOO I GOT IT

LETS GO

[lucid sable]

Noice noice

I like blue

so I'm happy

@brisk bloom I will lose 0-35 and beat you 😜

[brisk bloom]

OH WE'RE DOING THIS AGAIN

I'M GOING TO LOSE MORE THAN YOU THIS TIME

I GUARANTEE IT

I WILL PLAY THE SILLIEST DECK

[lucid sable]

I WON LAST TIME :3

LOST MORE

Got the bigger L and therefore I beat you

[brisk bloom]

that's because you played more games >.>

you had he numbers advantage

[lucid sable]

No. . .

you're just making up excuses . . .

[brisk bloom]

you're disregarding the facts to make me look silly >:(

[lucid sable]

No....

It's all in your head

[brisk bloom]

now you're gaslighting me >:((((

I'm beating you this time

[lucid sable]

I lost fair and square and there and hair and bear and tear and ware and mare and . . .

[crystal tapir]

~~can we report these guys for match fixing ~~

[brisk bloom]

there's nothing being fixed here except my dice when I play Bestest Travel Companion 😎

[wary heron]

duck is avoiding asia

[lucid sable]

Nah dw dw ( 0u0) Imi and I just lose a lot but we still try out best

it just became a thing

[brisk bloom]

who could blame you? leaderboard from last time is scary ;-;

[lucid sable]

Which I'll win at btw...

[wary heron]

yeahh…

[lucid sable]

Wasn't it like . . . all 300s

[brisk bloom]

lowest score was 31-4 ;-;

[wary heron]

yee

[lucid sable]

Duck wants to bully us non Asia level competetive TCG players

[wary heron]

of course

im poor, i need the $1k

[lucid sable]

;-; I'm poorer

I need at least a pity prize welkin

[wary heron]

trust me im poor

[lucid sable]

Pain is felt

and I acknowledge that

[wary heron]

[lucid sable]

I will totally be playing all 35 of my rounds with Collei Venti Ningguang just a heads up

[wary heron]

surely i dont pull a 3.5 and lose 9 games in a row

which is what i did in 3.5

[lucid sable]

Yikes-

;-; better than me

Negative nancy over here (at least they removed negative points)

[wary heron]

[lucid sable]

what times are the NA time slots for you anyway

Since duck is Asia

[wary heron]

uhhhhh

heheh

[crystal tapir]

pray for no strong opponents in queue

[lucid sable]

praying is a scam

[wary heron]

pray to not meet you

[lucid sable]

it does nothing ;-;

[wary heron]

5-0 free hashbrowns tech

[wary heron]

well for me

its early in themorning and late at night

[lucid sable]

Don't tell me you have like an alarm to wake yourself up at 3am to queue till 7am then just passing out till like 12-

[wary heron]

so ill usually be playing the late sessions

[lucid sable]

Ah

[wary heron]

but its my school holiday

so im completely fine

[lucid sable]

Dislike how the matches were moved from 6-10pm (for me) to 8-12 ;-;

painful

[wary heron]

and besides i can always just wake up at 7am

[lucid sable]

Eugh I am not a morning person

[wary heron]

(actually i forgor the session timings)

[wary heron]

i usually wake up at 12pm

[lucid sable]

the morning brain of mine would fail me faster than trying to run ganyu main with no dice fixers

[lucid sable]

;-; my mum would haul me out of bed-

[wary heron]

sounds painful

[lucid sable]

;-; mostly sad

I am but a creature of little wants

1. Let me become part of my bed
2. Let me do my dumb games till 4am and sleep till 12

[wary heron]

[frozen pike]

Added 3 new FAQs regarding the no proof submission for Preliminary Phase~ Check 6, 7, 8 in #1097076637868236850

[raw root]

So about Q6, is now the bot integrated to hoyoverse's database to check who won the match?

[frozen pike]

it's magic

[raw root]

[crystal tapir]

what is valid usage of /gicancel?

last time i heard a bunch of people were abusing it since it doest not count as loss

to dodge matches with certain players

[onyx bison]

If the opponent goes offline or doesnt respond

The people who abuse the command obviously gets karma

[stiff crypt]

Same

Asia is too dangerous

[ancient spindle]

Oh no Ayu not you too

[errant stream]

https://tenor.com/view/ah-shit-here-we-go-again-ah-shit-cj-gta-gta-san-andreas-gif-13933485

[wary heron]

lets all suffer together

but the catch is we wont actually be suffering

because it isnt asia

[ocean gulch]

Na will hv crowd this time

[ancient spindle]

Oh no the invasion is massive this time

Should i make and NA account too

[crystal tapir]

time to migrate to eu

[analog moat]

I just want the welking

[lucid sable]

Nooo don't raid NA ;-;

Raid EU-

Or somebody grind out my AR15 EU alt and I shall migrate

[stiff crypt]

What if many Asian invading other servers?

[ancient spindle]

Well we'll need 32 Asian to dominate NA and EU lb

[wary heron]

[lucid sable]

Noooooooooooooo

[bold widget]

🇪 🇺🏃‍♀️

[stiff crypt]

Then, I may not be able to get to the top leaderboard on any server

[ocean gulch]

[errant stream]

NA/EU should invade AS

[misty harbor]

Yes

[twilit steppe]

I would do this if I don't have skill issue

[wary heron]

[wary heron]

dont leave me

[polar barn]

@wary heron u playing EU ?

[wary heron]

NA

[polar barn]

Ah

I have to bear Asia for now

[wary heron]

time to suffer

timeslots 10pm-2am and 7am-11am

[twilit steppe]

Wow the first timeslot are not suitable for me at all unless I mess up my sleeping schedule... thankfully there's the 6 AM - 10 AM ones for me

[wary heron]

you guys are awake that early

[twilit steppe]

When my sleeping schedule is normal, waking up at 6 AM is so much easier than staying up until 2 AM

[lucid sable]

Light mode-

No wonder you're a strong TCG player-

all crazy people are strong in some way (not negative btw)

[lucid sable]

You would never be able to tell it'd still be all Asia on the leaderboard ;-;

09-13 and 18-22

[eager mesa]

eat your heart out ganyu

[polar barn]

That's a lot of damage

[mystic wharf]

I feel like imma get smoked this time

I'm so out of the meta, all I have is my Noelle deck and a Eula deck I'm cooking up for funsies XD

[lucid sable]

Waaaaah 07-11

Don’t wanna wake up that early

At least 18-22 still exists

[twilit steppe]

Same🙊

[misty harbor]

Look at you texting in here

[misty harbor]

I wanna try joining the next tournament and I hope to fight you and win

[mystic wharf]

Join this one coward

[misty harbor]

I CAN STILL JOIN? oh say less

imma get destroyed

[mystic wharf]

I think so

[misty harbor]

Bet

Imma do it after a few more runs with your Seele

[strange peak]

Time+Sanity for prize chances... hmmm

[lucid sable]

The first NA time is 7am to 11am and the second one is more probable for me but that just means more Asia competition in the later time slottttt

[wary heron]

NO WAY

8pm to 12am actually my best time slot imo

[hard vale]

[eager mesa]

EST privelege

[lethal spruce]

Bruh

Now I have to wake up even earlier to get my matches in

[lucid sable]

7-11 I can't do cuz camp

8-10 tho-

6*

[fast frost]

I got to wake up earlier too

[mystic wharf]

I'm in EST rn, but i'm gonna be driving across the country during prelims

so that'll be fun

thank god discord does time zones automatically XD

[hard vale]

east coast

[eager mesa]

the worst part is that this is going on during astra

[hard vale]

play at 5 am

[crystal tapir]

wait like

last day is during during astra?

[eager mesa]

astra is on the 17th

last day is the 19th

[crystal tapir]

oh thats fine then

[hard vale]

as i said

play at 5 am

[eager mesa]

ok but you gotta consider travel time and whatnot for this

[crystal tapir]

its like 5 games... how long could it take

[eager mesa]

because flyback is likely on the 18th or 19th

[crystal tapir]

inb4 stall vs stall and people dodging queue

[wary heron]

[ancient spindle]

No one from NA invades AS this time ?

does anyone know what the 5 win 10 exp requirement for the welkin GA is?

is it like just in your whole acc career or is there a special place i have to play

[hybrid whale]

Going to be participating for the first time, wanted to ask about the overall flow of a match in preliminary since I couldn’t find it in FAQ?

[lethal spruce]

When the prelims open, you'll go to #preliminary-queue message to match with someone. When that match is made, you'll be pinged into a separate thread, where you'll see the uid of the other player. One of you will join the other's world, and you'll play the match. The winner submits a screenshot of the final hit, and the loser submits a screenshot of the matchup loading screen.

Rinse and repeat.

[hybrid whale]

Which one is the matchup loading screen?

[lethal spruce]

You'll have to participate in the tournament to be eligible for the welkin, and win 5 matches in said tournament.

[lethal spruce]

This.

So remember to grab it

[hybrid whale]

Ohhh okay, thank you!

[lethal spruce]

Happy to help!

[fast frost]

How much points do the winners of these tournaments usually have?

[crystal tapir]

heres the historical data from last lb

[fast frost]

Thank you

So I guess I have to win at least 40 times.

[crystal tapir]

no there is only 35 games

[vast shard]

oh shoot

so if i already accidently registered for the welkin am i gonna get punished?

[vivid monolith]

What should I do next after filling in the registration form

[lethal spruce]

No? You just won't be eligible if you don't get your 5 wins and 10 points

[lethal spruce]

We simply wait.

[vast shard]

ah ok tyty

[fast frost]

Ah k

[crystal tapir]

how do i check if im registered?

[vivid monolith]

lol ok thx

Yeah I’m not sure whether I’m in

[lethal spruce]

#🎫register

Register if you aren't

If your are, it'll just give you the option to edit the information you've previously put in

[frozen pike]

We removed the proof submission process as it's very hard to follow, we developed some tools to check if a game happened or not as well, so legit players have an easier time participating in the tournament, while bad players are getting banned

[lethal spruce]

Wait really?

Let's goooo

[crystal tapir]

Thanks for the tool!

[lucid sable]

So we don't need like a SS of the battle with each of us and IUD and finishing move?

( -v-) I forget a lot of the time to get a SS

[frozen pike]

no, but you still have to report the result of the match correctly, failing to do so risks a ban

[lucid sable]

Yah ofc ofc oki

[crystal tapir]

No complementary prize for top 16 again…

[pale forum]

is it ok to stream the GITCG on discord mobile (ipad pro)? i dont have that much storage space on pc due to all the stuff i need installed for my dayjob

[frozen pike]

livestreaming is only required for Third Place and Final rounds of the Knockout Phase, if you manage to get there, as long as you can livestream on discord (regardless of device), you're good to go! For more information, please head to #1096770459892191284 for some frequently answered questions~

[wary heron]

wait

but what if player reports a wrong result, and there arent any screenshots for proof against the player

and there is just not sufficient evidence to prove that the result was reported wrong

[small crane]

They have Prince doing result playback for a reason. If you needed a result, someone can send a screenshot (either the player or the person they played against) of the ‘true’ result

[onyx bison]

Wdym by this? Like if you lost but accidentally reported it as a win?

[wary heron]

well

just any "wrong result" in general

[small crane]

Again, Prince playback is important for that exact reason

[wary heron]

brain still huh

[onyx bison]

If theres a mistake in the results you can either use qixing hotline or tell pon what happened

[wary heron]

ahh

[small crane]

That too. They’ll probably ask you to talk to Prince and get a screenshot of the results they have saved, but yeah

[alpine igloo]

Hey everyone

New to the server

Im playing tomorrow on the tournament

I was wondering if I could get some guidance on some doubts?

[lethal spruce]

Sure, ask away

[alpine igloo]

I’ve actually been reading this chat and a lot of my questions were already answered

For example when we finish a game we should report with screenshot or similar?

How many matches are we supposed to play per day?

[lethal spruce]

Yup, like so.

[lethal spruce]

If it stays the same as last time, then it's a max of 5 per day.

Over 7 days

[alpine igloo]

Does a photo of my screen count? Cus I play on ps5

[lethal spruce]

As long as we can see the final hit that wins you the game, it should be okay.

[alpine igloo]

Great, thanks!

What happens when the hit that wins the match is a summon hit on the end step?

[onyx bison]

They can be found in #1096770459892191284 , if you need some shorter explainations for them you can ask here

[onyx bison]

You should screenshot before you end the round

[alpine igloo]

Got it thanks!

You guys were really helpful 😊

[crystal tapir]

wait i thought we no longer needed to screenshot

Q7. Do I need to submit a screenshot as proof for the Preliminary Round I play?
A7. No, we have tools to check if a round really happened and its result. Keep in mind that the round must have already ended before using the /giconclude command for it to be counted correctly.

[lethal spruce]

I wonder how that works

Meh

I'll just wait and see then

[visual fable]

How many rounds do we need to play in order to be able to go to the knockout stage? Can anyone help guide me on how the event runs? I'm new here

[lucid sable]

The event runs one week

You have 7 days to complete 35 matches where you can play 5 new matches each day (if you only completed 3 matches on day 1 you could play 7 on day 2 because the remaining hold over)

And in NA I believe a 25:10 win lose ratio should work

but as there are more players due to 3.7 drop I'd say a bit more than that maybe

[visual fable]

Ohh okay

So I can leave it all till the last day and play 35 matches?

[lucid sable]

would not reccoment

there are two 4 hour periods each day that you can queue

and sometimes you don't queue up

queuing can go the whole 10 minute length and still nobody queued so theres also that to consider

[visual fable]

Okay! Thanks!

[lucid sable]

you can check #preliminary-queue message here

The time stamps match your set time

It'll tell you the times you can play

I'd say get as many as you can done each day

On the weekend you can speed some if you gotta but get at least 3 done each day I'd say unless your confident in your ability not to play a 30 minute long stall deck

[visual fable]

So you say to play early because people could stall you into conceding?

[mystic wharf]

More like stall decks take more of your time to play so less matches

[lucid sable]

^

And also queuing can be a nightmare sometimes

I mean queuing for 10 minutes to reach the time limit and get told nobody was queuing

Given 8 hours a day to finish 5 matches

4 hours if you can only make one time slot

And even then it isn't that likely as you have 45 minutes iirc to finish your match anyway

[visual fable]

Then which times do you reccomend to queue up?

I think 8 hours a day is too little time... Time zone differences as not all NA players live in the USA

[lucid sable]

Whatever time works for you

[lucid sable]

some asia players moved to NA cuz Asia is brutal and us NA/EU players are easier pickings-

[visual fable]

oh damn

[lucid sable]

What times do they say for you?

[inner dagger]

Hi I am new to the tournament and I want to see if I understood, we do not fight directly with other players, rather we play the Arena of Champions mode 5 times a day to make the maximum score and rank in the top 16?

[crystal tapir]

No you fight other players in server queue

Arena is extremely cope

[inner dagger]

Ohhh i see sorry i was a little confused 🥲

[lucid sable]

I’d say shoot for the earlier time slot of 2-6 as the other one would require you to be nocturnal and most people work during the week so I assume you work/have school

I’d say at least try to get some done each day then cope and nyoom the last ones over the weekend

[wary heron]

[wary heron]

plot twist: i am nocturnal

[arctic valve]

i actually work on night shift 😄

[wary heron]

i don't work

[crystal tapir]

Tip: its better to avoid good players than to become good

Pray to matchmaker

[wary heron]

everybody: playing tavern
meanwhile me:

[ancient spindle]

Bruh this is suffer

[pearl fern]

Imagine saying this as someone with a badge

[wary heron]

i still remember the time i used to get 22-2 with a really cope deck

out of all my games

that i played at literally 3am

[rose perch]

Oh there is a new card back in the shop. The treasure chest card back.

[wary heron]

oh

didnt notice

[twilit steppe]

I almost forgot that the queue is going to start in 1 hour and 20-ish minutes haha...

[wary heron]

good luck

[twilit steppe]

Thank you, good luck to you too and everyone else

[arctic valve]

well, i think i can play a few matches today and tomorrow, and carry the rest for wednesday

[wary heron]

[errant stream]

[jovial needle]

[lethal spruce]

[wary heron]

[eager mesa]

[wary heron]

[eager mesa]

[wary heron]

"move forward gain two"
But even so,

im scared

[rugged sequoia]

I'm too tired to do a good job playing so I'm waiting until tonight's time slot and getting some sleep

[eager mesa]

got got by double starsigns

[wary heron]

queue time

[gaunt mica]

do we not have to send screenshots to conclude?

nvm, checked faq

looks like we don't

[fast frost]

Why am I sucking so much? I have a great deck and skill but I lose so badly

[inner dagger]

Don't be mad it's the first day You can recover

[wary heron]

[fast river]

had a really nice match

[inner dagger]

So we don't have to take a ss right?

[eager mesa]

apparently not

[wary heron]

[arctic valve]

it seems we only need to report the result

[lucid sable]

Ahhh good luck all

Cant go this queue time cuz camp but ;-;

is this when Asia players play? ;-; please tell me this is when Asia players play-

[slow mason]

this might haunt my dreams

[eager mesa]

ggs @wary heron

[wary heron]

ggs

sniping xingqiu is fun

[eager mesa]

dice of cringe to not be able to cleanse

and you had the litm reso to punish

[wary heron]

[frozen pike]

here's 8 Pyros to cleanse

[eager mesa]

pyro dice don't let any chars cleanse tho

all cleansers atm are hydro

[frozen pike]

[wary heron]

imo id tune 2 to cleanse losing xq before burst in freeze is too risky

[wary heron]

we have cicin mage burst

[twilit steppe]

Yeah the queue seem to be slower than usual (?) not as slow as the first one though haha

[eager mesa]

I was already almost out of cards at that point

I ended turn with 1 card in hand

[wary heron]

oh

[eager mesa]

dice of cringe

[wary heron]

nvm i cant read

see*

literally blind

[inner dagger]

We can play at morning and evening right? Or just morning

[wary heron]

ehh imma take a short break before the next time i hop into queue

[fast frost]

Lost again

[twilit steppe]

Well there are two time window

[wary heron]

you can play in either of the specified time slots

[rose perch]

I think I am just going to do 2 in the morning and 3 later tonight. too tired.

[wary heron]

[fast frost]

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong

[wary heron]

3-0

[twilit steppe]

Oh nice haha..

[eager mesa]

[twilit steppe]

I'm 2-2

[fast frost]

I only won once and the times I lost, I lost so badly

And I don't know what I did wrong

[eager mesa]

1-3 here
all 3 to incredible diceof cringe round 1

[wary heron]

[fast frost]

I got good dice rolls and good cards but apparently, my opponents got even better rolls and cards

[eager mesa]

the round I won was a low roll too

[slow mason]

dont you just need to na na

[eager mesa]

but at least ryssa rolled even lower

[eager mesa]

yeah

[twilit steppe]

[slow mason]

damn

[wary heron]

[slow mason]

I've been there before with agent

[fast frost]

I need to practice more against people with actual skill rather than randomly matched players

[slow mason]

if you play enough in match making you'll eventually find good players

[fast frost]

Yeah

But I need to play against good players more often. Cause for every good player I play against randomly, there's four bad ones.

[cinder idol]

0-5 💔💔💔

[fast frost]

I feel your pain. I won once but I believe it was just because of luck.

[cinder idol]

I think I play against gods

Like actual real life beings of another world

[slow mason]

it's just a matter of practice

[lethal spruce]

[lethal spruce]

Atilla and SI are scary...

[errant stream]

skill issued one game

tunnel visioned

[lethal spruce]

I'm surprised I managed to win these past 2 games tho

I literally threw this deck together last night

Just now testing it on people

[fast frost]

I looked at what the best players used and based my decks on that, changing a few cards based on personal opinion.

And practiced a bunch so I knew how to use the decks

And still I lose 4 matches

[errant stream]

[eager mesa]

0 cryo dice on combo turn

[errant stream]

[misty harbor]

I lost 2 matches in a row

[misty harbor]

LOL go off

[fast frost]

That's terrible luck, getting no dice you need despite having so many

[lucid sable]

n< be thankful you only get 1 point for a loss and not -1 for a loss

I have first tavern tourney trauma of where I had over -10 as a score

[fast frost]

Yeah, I am thankful I at least won once.

[eternal musk]

wow, the round has started and i'm still at work.
gl everyone.

[lucid sable]

^^ ty

I’m queuing later as I’m otw to camp

[fast frost]

I guess I should aim for just five wins for the welkin moon lottery. Don't think I can get within the top spots with actual prizes.

[eager mesa]

starting 1-4 due to insane dice of cringe

[wary heron]

whoo

that was so close

4-0

[lucid sable]

You can redeem I beleaf

[twilit steppe]

3-2 and I definitely skill issued at the two losses

[lucid sable]

n< plus you’re real good so I doubt it’ll be too bad-

[wary heron]

sweats

[lucid sable]

Ahh

Hopefully there’s less MMEC cringe

[eternal musk]

Awards are good things but i'm just here for fun

[lucid sable]

;-; is there?

[eager mesa]

going by last time I can only afford 5 losses the rest of the week to make it

[eternal musk]

[wary heron]

[lucid sable]

Wasn’t last time like 27-8 qualified?

Or something like that

[wary heron]

and in asia youd already be dead

[lucid sable]

Most were 290+ at least in points yes?

[wary heron]

now time to shower before my last game of the day

[lucid sable]

Losing 1 game- ;-;

Asia is brutal

[gaunt mica]

4-1 start after opening with a misplay, not bad

[wary heron]

[fast frost]

I should practice more with my Zhongli or Nahida decks
