13-13, no way the top are going to drop to 13 losses and no way I'm winning 10 during the weekend...

[lucid sable]

agggh

Just gonna test decks ;-;

can't do much else

no shot of winning

[hybrid whale]

Tried Nahida EC today but just doesn’t fit me, too many calculations to do for a starting player like me 😅

[lucid sable]

I've gone through

like a bunch of decks ;-;

[crystal tapir]

no calculations needed just summon

[slow mason]

I mean

[crystal tapir]

1. summon
2. summon on your other char
3. win

[slow mason]

you still have to think about it

it's not as easy as summon summon

[crystal tapir]

im playing it rn...

[slow mason]

do you really fint it to be that simple?

[crystal tapir]

yes, compared to other decks there is not much variation

[slow mason]

maybe you're just the better player then

[hybrid whale]

Yeah maybe you’re just good

[slow mason]

I am but a diona main so what would I know

[hybrid whale]

I find Zhongli decks to be the most simple

Put a bunch of stuff on him and keep shielding, finish with burst

If you don’t get stuff you lose

[crystal tapir]

ok hes simple but not that simple... you actually have to play around opponent on zl

[hybrid whale]

I did summon summon today and opponent played around it well so I lost

So summon summon doesn’t just simply work either

[fathom fog]

[misty harness]

if someone accidentally attempts to submit the wrong result and the other player cancels, then submits the correct result and both players confirm it, the result gets registered correctly and no further action is needed, correct?

[slow mason]

think so

[hybrid whale]

I just realized, the simplest way to win is to get cometa to play for you

[mortal furnace]

yeah that was my bad... sorry

[misty harness]

np, just making sure we can move on with no issues

[slow mason]

what?

[fathom fog]

Dosnt work I lost today 😭

[crystal tapir]

cometa backseat me uwu

[mortal furnace]

check your score it should have registered correctly

[rose perch]

wait you guys been backseating the games? is that allowed?

[crystal tapir]

no it was a joke backseating is not allowed

[misty harness]

seems it did

[mortal furnace]

seeing that there isn't a rulebook... yes??

[hybrid whale]

Yeah sorry I thought that was obvious…

[slow mason]

I wouldnt try a technicality like that

[mortal furnace]

tbh

[fathom fog]

[rose perch]

I dunno sometimes I see people stream games in the tcg discord and there a huge group of players

[crystal tapir]

sus

[slow mason]

usually they deafen

[mortal furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/sus-among-us-gif-24132003

[crystal tapir]

usually you strem with delay

[mortal furnace]

u can do that on discord?

[crystal tapir]

idk i dont stream 💀

[hybrid whale]

Well yeah but that holds the risk of your opponent finding out what cards you have so fortunately it doesn’t work lol

[mortal furnace]

I know it works for twitch

[crystal tapir]

frfr the real rng is not cards nor dice

its rolling opponents

[slow mason]

True

[jovial needle]

Today was bad 3-2

[misty harness]

I think it's over for me. I'm only in it to gatekeep other players

[mortal furnace]

yeah tough matches tonight

[frigid sundial]

Same

[jovial needle]

I lost to 2 decks 1 was mm ocinid xiangling and other was sucrose yae mona. Both aren't meta. I became overconfident against taser game and was punished. In mm game i was outclassed

[twilit steppe]

Xiangling & Oceanid is strong if used right + the player is lucky tbf, I once bursted with Xiangling 3 times in one game (sorry Duck)

[jovial needle]

I didn't let them use xl at all apart from 1st gouba. I didn't get benny talant in that game but that's just part of the game.

[twilit steppe]

Oh wow it's actually surprising that player can win, I am sorry for your loss..

[jovial needle]

Well mm ocienid core is still good and they too had ramp

[hybrid whale]

I hope there’s an amateur bracket in the future cause the difference between random matching in-game and tournaments is too large…

[crystal tapir]

actually if you play enough random matchmaking is much stronger than tournament opponents on average

[slow mason]

I feel like that wouldn't make much sense for them to do a amateur bracket

[hybrid whale]

I usually win 5 straight in arena of champions though

[slow mason]

Arena of champions is bad

For testing how good you are

[jovial needle]

[hybrid whale]

Yeah as of now there aren’t enough players probably

[jovial needle]

Arena of cope

[crystal tapir]

arena is always bad

but then again i havent played that much there so maybe there is also hidden mmr

[hybrid whale]

Yeah, exactly why the jump feels so large from in-game to tourney

[twilit steppe]

Not really in my experience...

[slow mason]

It takes a while but you get there

[crystal tapir]

trust me you dont want to go there

[slow mason]

Why not

Practice is only good when against strong opponents

[crystal tapir]

have fun waiting for said strong opponent xD

[hybrid whale]

Yeah, this tournament has been a good experience but unless Mihoyo decides to push TCG more I probably won’t grind this game

[fathom fog]

Wheres strong opp in tournaments or in ladder? Love to play against strong ones 🥰

[twilit steppe]

I said this because, Idk why but I either met players with copium deck/with same skill or even lower skill than me (sorry) or... extremely strong players😭☹️

[crystal tapir]

the only reliable way is you ping them and ask

[hybrid whale]

You’ll need to clone yourself lol

[mortal furnace]

Ill play you but no promises

[fathom fog]

I want but feels weird Jaja

[twilit steppe]

Not me that's for sure

[slow mason]

Play a lot and eventually you'll find ting and SI

[fathom fog]

I know ting but who’s SI?

[slow mason]

Stupididiot

Also goes by robot wizard

But saying stupididiot sounds rude

[hybrid whale]

Wait actually!? I played him lol

Can’t tell the difference since I’ve been losing half my matches

[raven wyvern]

dead queue

[crystal tapir]

this guy

hes real pro

[raven wyvern]

LMAO

he's playing nec

[fathom fog]

Ohh yeah they’re strong I’m never face him

[crystal tapir]

or well i asked him to...

[raven wyvern]

ah

[violet garnet]

if i start the cue/match before 10pm/cutoff

it still counts correct?

[stiff crypt]

I also want to get that luck

[violet garnet]

or do the matches have to complete durring the window?

[stiff crypt]

Tong is on EU now

If he's on NA
There might a legendary battle ting vs tong

[crystal tapir]

as long as you get into the game its ok

but after that window you can no longer queue, however ongoing games will still be played

[ancient spindle]

T* ng vs T* ng

[stiff crypt]

Then, I'll just play on amateur bracket

[slow mason]

I would check the prizes first

[jovial needle]

U r not amature though

[slow mason]

what makes an amature an amature?

[jovial needle]

Experience

[raven wyvern]

Pretty sure it's level

[stiff crypt]

You're a pro too

[raven wyvern]

Cutoff time

[stiff crypt]

Yes

[violet garnet]

ty

[raven wyvern]

They should have made the night slot go later tbh.

[violet garnet]

needs 1 more hr imo

for each end.

am and pm windows

[hybrid whale]

Longer slots means worse matching though so hard call imo

[raven wyvern]

Start later

What is this 7pm start

[hybrid whale]

Can’t satisfy everyone

[raven wyvern]

Astra was still going on when the queue started

[pearl hedge]

thats good

that means you cant fight the people in astra

[jovial needle]

10 games remain. Lb players will lose 2 or 3 more. Cutoff will be 8 or 9 L imo

[crystal tapir]

youd be surprised by the amount of people playing tavern during astra xD

[slow mason]

I already have 8 losses so I guess it's over then

[twilit steppe]

Omg then I'm not getting in no matter what haha

[slow mason]

I mean unless I 5-0 twice somehow

which is impossible at my skill level

[twilit steppe]

Same

[hybrid whale]

Welcome to the club

I’ve decided to just pray that I get Welkin, wonder how many people got those 5 wins in

[slow mason]

Right

I had forgotten about the giveaway

It's probably something like a 1% chance but a man can dream

[hybrid whale]

So you’re guessing there’s 15,000 players who got 5 wins!?

[slow mason]

I dont remember how many welkins they're giving away and I didnt do the math

I was just guessing

[twilit steppe]

There need to be 10 games at minimum to get Welkin right? Well I think active participants can get high chance, I mean I got one from the previous tournament haha.. also they gave out like 150 Welkins so yeah

[slow mason]

I guess there is a chance then

[hybrid whale]

There’s hope

[raven wyvern]

damn SI, making it harder to get t16

I still have like 20 games to play

[slow mason]

it's ok

you can only match him twice

[raven wyvern]

I assume astra ppl aren't queueing tmr? I think I might need to give them some defeats to make t16

which would mean sun queue

[crystal tapir]

in between games we will do 1 of 3 things

1. eat
2. play ping pong
3. play tcg

[raven wyvern]

queue is at night though

I'm currently 18/25 games so I need to do 7 + 10 more

[violet garnet]

goodness me. claudeh got so unlucky.

congrats to binzu for win

[raven wyvern]

binzu ain't even in this channel

this is NA

[violet garnet]

sure, still tho

XD

nyahida gonna take NA tho

🙏

[raven wyvern]

he'll have to face the penultimate boss Ting followed by the final boss SI though

[violet garnet]

i belib

[twilit steppe]

Also Claudeh's decks are kind of kopium sorry☹️😭 The fact that Claudeh can pilot them are amazing IMHO

[crystal tapir]

will be happy just winning first game if i even can

they look so pro

[violet garnet]

i belib

[raven wyvern]

if you make t4 you get to play on sunday too right?

is there a prize for sun or is it a for fun thing

ah, is it a leak if you say

[violet garnet]

lmfao

XD

[raven wyvern]

I mean we'll find out in two days

[pallid fog]

[violet garnet]

true.

im a little sad they didnt broadcast every match in the round of 8

[raven wyvern]

True. Would have been nice, but then the stream would have been like 8 hours long.

[violet garnet]

thats kinda normal for finals in most games

[slow mason]

We can watch 8 hours

The casters would probably be the ones who would suffer though

[south tiger]

casters need rest too

yea

[violet garnet]

all matches for dota, rocket league, and many other games have multiple caster teams and also dont skip matches on finals days

[slow mason]

We can have SI and gboo replace lia and blep after a while since they were already in the audience

[violet garnet]

interestingly enough they do remote casting for rocket league outside of lan majors

[crystal tapir]

i also really like the idea of having competitors be guest commentators

but it seems not many agree with the idea

[violet garnet]

^

players make the best casters

they give more insight into why a player does what they do

granted the eu casters did a good job

just needed a little bit more forward thought like how players look at stuff.

though, some players when they have perfect information on both sides, they can jump to conclusions too if x was a good or bad play.

when casting.

[lethal spruce]

Yeh yeh

There were times during the stream where I didn't exactly agree with their thoughts

Still

They did really good thoooo

[violet garnet]

Fr. I vividly recall one thing they overlooked/harped on. I forget which match but it was the 2 damage from normal attack into sucrose with XL. She was dead from oz+gouba regardless. That action wasn't the turning point.

But otherwise I think they did wonderfully

[wary heron]

floor is 6 losses?

i think i need to 5-0 both days from now then

[violet garnet]

whats your record duck?

[wary heron]

18-7

[crystal tapir]

Floor will likely be 7-8 losses at the end

[wary heron]

and my pc is on 6%

time to charge it

[violet garnet]

yeah, thats what it looks like to me.

[wary heron]

surely floor is 8

to allow me another potential loss

if say i queue into a horrible deck matchupi

[violet garnet]

better idea

just win everything

🙂

[crystal tapir]

If you pray hard enough for top players not to play all 35 then the floor could be at 9 like last time

[wary heron]

surely

[fast frost]

I lost like 15-16 matches so I’m out.

[wary heron]

also i slept last night

[slow mason]

I don't think it would be possible for me to make it without betraying diona

one loss and I'm out

[fathom fog]

Nyahida u know How many players qualify for prince cup the top 8 or top 16?

[crystal tapir]

As in direct invite?

[rose perch]

more like top 20 cuz so many people in the top 16 didnt live in NA

[slow mason]

that doesnt stop them from going

[rose perch]

yes it does. they didnt get the invite

[slow mason]

does it? from what Ive heard from SI a lot of people from the na prince cup are from asia

[rose perch]

that makes no sense we had to give proof of residency.

[slow mason]

they probably came from wild card then

[rose perch]

we have the bracket for the prince cup. who do you think is from asia?

[fathom fog]

Where I can see the na bracket?

[slow mason]

I'm just saying what I've heard, I don't know the players personally

[crystal tapir]

no but there are 8 asians

and there are those who play on cn servers
everyone is probably checked for na residency tho

[rose perch]

https://weplaystudios.challonge.com/tyzy206d

[fathom fog]

So that top 8 will play like today eu prince cup?

[rose perch]

I meant people who live in NA not which server they play on. A lot of people play on asia server cuz it gets events sooner.

the link is the NA cup. You have to search that website for the EU division

[frozen pike]

oh my

Meteorites got Tinged

ily Meteorites

no homo

Waw nice delete

[rose perch]

Btw does anyone have information on the prince cup card back? I am dying to know what it looks like

[frozen pike]

[wary heron]

t*nged

[rose perch]

I collected all the items in genshin. Missing out on the card back is killing me. Hopefully it will be available for future tournaments and not just exclusive to this season of prince cup.

[violet rose]

I am so tired of people making this joke. Someone said the same thing when I lost to him in the 1st season of the tavern tournament. I'm glad you waited a week before saying this. If you said it immediately on the day after I lost 2000 dollars, I would've freaked out.

[frozen pike]

there will always be next times!

[violet garnet]

I know that feeling. Losing to SI made me feel rough too. 9th place is still solid. Just wish it could gone better for me.

[crystal tapir]

i am also in the got tinged club youre not alone...

:worrybrothers:

[rose perch]

btw what happens if you win welkin but you are max on welkin? is it possible for rewards to be delay and you redeem it later?

[pearl fern]

Do you want me to give you a shoutout on stream that you were in ro32? I was going to give you a mention but lmk if you'd rather me not

[violet rose]

No, I don't want to be noticed. I want to be invisible, blend in like an amogus.

[pearl fern]

Fair enough

[rose perch]

oh are you casting it?

[frozen pike]

yup https://twitter.com/AstraCarnival/status/1669008037963784192?s=20

[rose perch]

you can shout me out. in the gbootoxide vs ting match. gbootoxide 2-0 me haha. But I am rooting for him 🥳

[craggy cloak]

[frozen pike]

EU was actually fire

all those intense matches

[rose perch]

btw why did you play through wild card was it for the extra practice?

[craggy cloak]

I didn't

I qualified into top 32

[rose perch]

oh I guess I looked at the wrong tournament. There wasn another one called TCG USA duel i thought that was the wild card.

[craggy cloak]

yeah that was a different tourney

[rose perch]

how is the hotel they put you in?

[ancient spindle]

surely the hotel has a pool

[wary heron]

i want a hotel room

[craggy cloak]

the hotel's great, the only problem is that the internet keeps cutting out during tavern queue hours

[rose perch]

free breakfast buffet?

[wary heron]

instead im stuck here in thsi fucking farm in the middle of literally nowhere and theres nothing good nearby and i want to literally die

also gitcg asia weekly in 30 minutes, surely i can 5-0

[craggy cloak]

nope but they feed us at the venue

[rose perch]

man soooo jelly. Don't party too hard into the night. GL tomorrow.

[wary heron]

you guys have food?

ive been going on a near-empty stomach the entire day

[craggy cloak]

thanks!

[wary heron]

good luck

don't get tinged

[craggy cloak]

I probably will lmao

[wary heron]

t*ng

[pearl fern]

Oh you were gboos opp on ro16?

[wary heron]

wait

anyone here got any food?

im dying of starvation

[craggy cloak]

ro32 group stage

[crystal tapir]

i spy a peking duck 👀

[subtle ibex]

im sure there's a taco truck on one of the nearby street corners

[pearl fern]

Oh, doesn't make the cut then

[frozen pike]

i see what you did there

[subtle ibex]

instead of getting tinged, you could get poned instead

[raven wyvern]

can't pon if I ron

[subtle ibex]

no ponscape

[wary heron]

[wary heron]

queue opens in 1 hour 5 minutes

it's 5-0 4-1 time

[stiff crypt]

Good luck

[wary heron]

you know what, time to queue

[eager mesa]

[wary heron]

btw, gitcg karaoke

tf...

[tropic slate]

smh i got this too but it was in japanese for some reason

[lethal spruce]

LIA LIA LIA LIALIALIALIALIA

[lethal spruce]

Gboot 2-0ed me too...

I still for the 5-8th place thing so I'm not that mad

[raven wyvern]

morning queue is dead queue?

that is fair it is really early lmao

[tropic slate]

thats why i wanted to play it lol

surely the astra folks wont wake up at 5am to play tavern

[slow mason]

so I shouldn't queue or I'll have to fight you

[tropic slate]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[twilit steppe]

It's 5 AM in there? Wow it's 8 PM in here haha

[tropic slate]

well, 6am in california now

[wary heron]

[eager mesa]

Unironically
You're probably more likely to face them now

[wary heron]

nah

youll just run into duck

[eager mesa]

Because they're gonna be doing Astra during other time

[tropic slate]

nah the last time astra ended like two hours into the window

i assume they played the back half of that

and anyway I'm busy during the second window so

[eager mesa]

Only ended 2hrs in because binzu came in with a steel chair

And 3-0d the grand finals

[wary heron]

b*nzu not playing stall

unironically, this is normal

[tropic slate]

mine has been spinning since more than 10 minutes ago

i think something might be broken

[twilit steppe]

Same LOL

[wary heron]

[wary heron]

smh queue into me already

[frozen pike]

another name getting censored

[frozen pike]

requeue

Sussy was broken at that moment i think

[wary heron]

ohh

okok

[slow mason]

these games are stressful when you know the other player and know they can beat you

[eager mesa]

Ggs @vapid bone ive definitely been in the kitchen today

[wary heron]

[eager mesa]

🧑‍🍳

[wary heron]

i wont queue anymore for a bit

[vapid bone]

gg

[wary heron]

visiting friends

to play cards

[eager mesa]

[wary heron]

time to believe in the heart of the cards and draw a uno reverse against them

[twilit steppe]

Thank goodness for that

[eager mesa]

5+3+2

[slow mason]

well I lost a game so I guess I cant reach top 16 now

[wary heron]

[eager mesa]

You're not in Asia lmao

[slow mason]

No but I have 8 or 9 loses

[twilit steppe]

What if a player have 11 losses though

[slow mason]

I forgot to equip gamblers

[eager mesa]

16th place currently has 9

So it's not impossible

[twilit steppe]

Omg Leoric is my only loss today.. I wish everyday were like this except for the time I went 5-0 haha

[slow mason]

I made it back in

now I just need to pray every good player stops playing

[twilit steppe]

Oh nice..

[twilit steppe]

You're one of the good player in question though

[slow mason]

I'm just a diona main

I am not good

[twilit steppe]

You're good at melt comps from my observation

[small crane]

So, I have realized something. Raiden and quicken comp do not mix

aggressive quicken comp

[lethal spruce]

Raiden's electro application is....not good.

[fast veldt]

Hellow guess who quit genshin for hsr

[pearl hedge]

I keep throwing games by one move

I either forget to play gamblers or I forget to play lotus

[twilit steppe]

Thank goodness I don't have to face your double anemo control again

[arctic valve]

i'm steady on my posture, going second in this game is a tremendous dissadvantage

its unveliable that i can track many of my loses up to the coin toss

[tropic slate]

really depends on your deck and your opening hand

a lot of the time you can claw momentum back with liben or paimon or liyue resonance, sacrificing your t1 for a really bulky t2

[arctic valve]

yet you will always try to snatch priority

because if things get rough, the one that acts first have the advantage

[tropic slate]

also that, not necessarily

if my opponent moves first and ends their turn really quickly, then they forfeit their ability to react to whatever I do

[wary heron]

FK

I JUST GOT BACK FROM MY FRIEND'S PLACE

AND QUEUE IS OVER

[arctic valve]

and yet your opponent still have the upper hand on reactions and food

[wary heron]

IM GONNA HAVE TO WIN 9 GAMES IN A ROW TOMORROW

[arctic valve]

gogogo duck

[tropic slate]

can't hit the window in 7 hours?

[wary heron]

i never play the 2nd session

always sleeping

[violet garnet]

How does one have 21-0 record and 30 exp?

That doesn't add up

[slow mason]

you're thinking of it wrong

I have a 20-10 record and 30 xp

1 point every loss

[violet garnet]

Ah. That makes sense

I just woke. So I was a bit confused

[slow mason]

wish I had 21-0 record

[wary heron]

[little basalt]

if opponent concede, what should i do?

[subtle ibex]

If they're still in the room, you can conclude normally via /giconclude and they can confirm the result! If they're afk, do /gicancel, put the reason as 'AFK' and we'll take a look at it

[lethal spruce]

Omg its onnn

[subtle ibex]

i wonder who's gonna take the grand finals

[violet garnet]

it is a hard call tbh. i think they both have a heck of a good shot

both have pyro kq right?

[subtle ibex]

i missed the card list, but i think so

SI sweeped that round tho

[violet garnet]

thats what NEC does

[fathom fog]

Guys where I can see the decklist of the top 8?

[subtle ibex]

im not quite sure, but you can rewind the stream where i think they do show it for each match

[fathom fog]

No decklist in stream

Hope someone have the link of the decklists

[subtle ibex]

hopefully!!

[stiff crypt]

Just see the characters they use, and make your own support cards list

[subtle ibex]

2-0

i wanna see nyahida make a comeback

[twilit steppe]

https://go.weplay.tv/ud8xntju

[fathom fog]

[fathom fog]

My hero

[subtle ibex]

tyss ryssa

[stiff crypt]

I meant we are most likely have different strategy and thinking, as long as we know how the team works, we can just make our own deck

we can also see their gameplay and see important cards they use and their strategy and make our own version of the deck

[fast frost]

I would like to know what they do in this or that situation. What cards they decide to tune and what cards they keep in hand.

[subtle ibex]

YEAA OMG 2-1

that was such an amazing 180 at the end by nyahida

damnnnn ggssss

[fast frost]

I would have won my match if I had that anemo dice card in my card! Or at least one more dice!

Sucks

[subtle ibex]

luck be rough these days

[lethal spruce]

Ting's first match was Nyahida was awesome tho

I had the same outcome fighting against that deck

[twilit steppe]

LOL is that the Electro Hypostasis + Maguu Kenki + Xiao one?

[subtle ibex]

i was only able to tune in for the last half the semi-finals unfortunately - got some backwatching to do
nyahida has done an amazing showing here tho!!

[fast frost]

Again my opponent had exactly what they needed to win

When I only needed to do one more attack

[eager mesa]

D:

I cooked a new deck and I can't even play it

[lethal spruce]

Yup....I got squished

[subtle ibex]

life of tcg rng .. hoping for better luck for you next time

[subtle ibex]

ahhhh noes, able to rematch again?

[twilit steppe]

That happened to me last night omg.. that person is missing a chance of free win from someone who lost 11 times

[twilit steppe]

Oh yeah that burst is painful...

[fast frost]

Yeah, ain’t no way I’m getting into the top 20

[eager mesa]

I can hit top 24 if I lose 0 more times

Have 8 games left

That 1-4 start from extreme diceofcringe hurt

[subtle ibex]

there's a reason why you see tons of posters saying 'keep calm and carry on' everyone starts from somewhere, and everyone goes on their own journey to get where they wanna be! even if you can't get in this time, there'll be a lot of chances in the future to improve your skill and maybe with enough determination, we'll see you in KOs
you got this, don't give up <3

[fast frost]

Yeah, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

I keep losing despite being so close

[raven wyvern]

Ask someone from the gitcg server to review your game.

Like start a vc and start streaming your games. Some ppl will come to help

Or prerecord if you don't want to do it live.

[rose perch]

i mean genshin tcg is meant to be close. It is balanced like that.

[eternal musk]

I usually save my lost games that i found close to find out later that most of the time i just missed a move that made a difference two or more turns later.
so I started to study more end game.

[subtle ibex]

yessss, .gg/gitcg is such an amazing resource and community! please def check them out; they're genuinely so awesome

[brisk bloom]

they also have weekly tournaments that are good practice

[lethal spruce]

[fast frost]

At least I won one game today

[twilit steppe]

I once did similar thing myself and it's kind of fun tbh sorry🙊

[lethal spruce]

....

Tbh that's fair

[eager mesa]

And got yeeted by a dc.causing me to lose a game I would have otherwise won

Maybe next time

[twilit steppe]

Omg I thought bad internet were only Indonesia thing

[brisk bloom]

this is a war crime

[frigid sundial]

[stiff crypt]

I got dc before, fortunately I still with my match despite I skip 1 round and waste my liben (so 10 dice is wasted)

[twilit steppe]

Omg happened to me once too in previous tavern🙊

[strange peak]

Real serious question: what happens when your opponent dc when he is about to lose?

[lethal spruce]

Fr

[brisk bloom]

https://discord.com/channels/865768900662788107/895270346750582796

[strange peak]

But how would they handle it? Doesn't really mean it was 1 hit away from losing... just like, things aren't looking good to his side

[brisk bloom]

if they dc, pretty sure that unless they come back and you both agree to a rematch, that's just a loss on their end

[subtle ibex]

You can either conclude the match normally and see if they are willing to confirm the result, or you could cancel and list the reason for conceded early
I'd also recommend making a report via Qixing so that we can check on the backend 👍

[raven wyvern]

It's all over for me

[strange peak]

Ic... thx for the info

[rose perch]

Congrats to the Prince Cup Winners!!!

[stiff crypt]

I got panicked when I was dc
I was completely winning before dc, but it's gotten very close after I can finally relogin, fortunately I still win my match

[twilit steppe]

Oh yeah DC causes me to panic too 😭 ☹️ thankfully I do have decent mobile data, and also thankfully you still won in the end

[stiff crypt]

Yeah

[strange peak]

I've never dc'd during a match... cause I connect the modem cable directly to my PS to prevent intermittency/lag

[lethal spruce]

Salad, can you check on #🎴genius-invokation-tcg, please?

[strange peak]

Toilet afking

[twilit steppe]

Omg I wish my internet were like yours 🤓

[strange peak]

Always go potty before queuing to a match

[twilit steppe]

||That's me, actually for some reason I always want to go to toilet before tournaments Idk why|| might be TMI + cringe sorry☹️ 😭

[strange peak]

Nothing to worry if you are a mobile player, though

[twilit steppe]

Ah yeah, lately I've begun to use PC too though haha 🤓

[hybrid whale]

The queue's long so I go use my resin and come back to find myself blocked for not responding in time 😅

[inner dagger]

XD

[lethal spruce]

True...

[strange peak]

Imagine if it was like in the 1st tournament... 1 yawn and you lose the queue after waiting 10 min

[lethal spruce]

Flashbacks

[tidal oriole]

Help I cant giconclude 😵

[rich wasp]

the bot seems to be dead

[misty harness]

[rich wasp]

my queue broke

[misty harness]

I'm stuck in a room

[tidal oriole]

Should we ping the mods or something?

[rugged crane]

anyone wanna duel and call it official? (are we allowed to do that kek

[subtle ibex]

[tidal oriole]

Noo thats gonna be called match fixing

[subtle ibex]

[misty harness]

[tidal oriole]

Woah still, congratssss

[rugged crane]

facecam

reeeee

[violet garnet]

ty. yeah. just tried to high roll SI out of the bracket with NEC. but it didnt work.

toss up went badge. so i sadge

[lethal spruce]

NEC requires luck...luck that only a few people have

Still, nyahida did suuuuupper well tho

[misty harness]

I lost to NEC. I got a total of three on-color dice in 3 rounds. Luck indeed.

[dark swan]

Sussy was lagging for a while, if you're still queueing, please press the Start button again! Sorry again for the incovenience, Travelers!

[violet garnet]

yeesh

glad i got my 5 in before it got buggy

aight, time to get some zzz just in case i rock AM tomorrow.

[rugged crane]

have a good sleep!

[violet garnet]

ty!

[jovial needle]

Should I rush my games in next session to hv better chance to qualify for knockouts or late in the game when I can decide who i wanna face in knockouts

[subtle ibex]

gngn!

[subtle ibex]

you got one more day sooo

[rugged crane]

as someone who consistently forget to play all games....i suggest just play them lol

[jovial needle]

Yeah i will probably delay my last 2 games. Don't wanna get tinged

[rugged crane]

but if you dont suffer from dementia, do anything u can to increase dem odds

[lethal spruce]

I'm 1 minute late

[jovial needle]

I am comfy enough that i can afford 2 Ls. Yeah i am delaying

[lethal spruce]

[jovial needle]

Ohno

[lethal spruce]

I probably won't be getting many more matches in tbh

The new time really conflicts with my schedule

And tbh I just don't get up early enough to play

[jovial needle]

Morning que is gonna be filled with asia players

[lethal spruce]

Tru

But like

I can either get tinged like I did last time

[jovial needle]

Relatable

[lethal spruce]

Or I play at night, but I'll be super distracted bc work

[jovial needle]

[lethal spruce]

[subtle ibex]

[violet garnet]

before zzz, there is also the weekly in the middle of the day that bleeds into the cue.

😦

[misty harness]

I'm pretty sure I can count the number of on-color dice I've gotten in all of my matches tonight....

[lethal spruce]

[hybrid whale]

Not gonna make it anyways so time to screw over people playing in afternoon block tomorrow and handing them unexpected losses

[zenith wraith]

👋 how is everyone doingggg?

[lethal spruce]

Unreal...engine?

[subtle ibex]

wrong channel maybe

[subtle ibex]

things be quite squeezyyy, hope your day is swells toos ;D

[rose perch]

hmmm do we all have to rush games tomorrow morning to win at tiebreakers? I hate playing in the morning.

[wary heron]

im playing 9 games tonight

salad lurky

[summer thicket]

i'm doing well how are you ??
are you doing well in the tournament ?

[wary heron]

no

floor is 7 losses, surely i can win 9 games

[arctic valve]

i support you duck

[wary heron]

[stiff crypt]

Good luck

[fast frost]

I might as well become a sacrifice for the top 16

Since I have no chance of becoming one

[arctic valve]

we are all sacrifices, destined to obstruct the chances of other people aspiring to get to top 16

[fast frost]

Yeah, I suck

[jovial needle]

Que me already

[wary heron]

wtf, my fucking mom just held me back for almost 1 hour with her stupid family gathering shit

[arctic valve]

hahahaha

[fast frost]

I really need to figure out what I’m doing wrong

[arctic valve]

mom's things

gladly, my family gave up on me on going to family reunions

[wary heron]

lucky

well my mom is an absolute shit head

and i dont think im finishing 9 games

[jovial needle]

I haven't been able to que my 3rd game. I haven't even played in this session at all before

[wary heron]

[jovial needle]

Sussy is being sussy

[wary heron]

sussy deadge

[arctic valve]

i can play in 10

[tropic slate]

three houses is plenty for nine games if you get the full rest of the window duck

you can do this!

[wary heron]

[rich wasp]

i have come to the conclusion that morning queue is infinitely harder than afternoon queue

[arctic valve]

well, i got paired with nyahida on the afternoon, so...

[tropic slate]

i got paired with nyahida in the morning, twice lol

but that was before astra

[arctic valve]

then that demonstrates that mornings are 50% harder than evenings

[wary heron]

this is why i have 7 losses

[fast frost]

I know I have no chance so I’m giving the top 16 some free wins (because for some reason I cannot win)

[arctic valve]

i will go to stop the top 16 to make it to top 16

[gilded notch]

Then you are screwing the 17th place guy

[arctic valve]

so other non top 16 can get to top 16

[wary heron]

surely i wont be the 17th place

i have a pic of the last time

[arctic valve]

xD

[frigid sundial]

[wary heron]

wtf sussy be sussy

"the queue was reset"

[gilded notch]

Is this tournament happening again in the near future?

[arctic valve]

july

[fast frost]

Sooner than I expected

[arctic valve]

at least thats what i have seen on adds

[rose perch]

From what I noticed you didnt proc any reactions.

[tropic slate]

provisional first on leaderboard by dint of being the first to hit 35 games

let's see how long it takes to drop to 17th lol

[fast frost]

Hmm, I thought I did?

[tropic slate]

or I guess not first at all, several people were earlier

[eternal musk]

[tropic slate]

but whatever i guess we'll see

i just feel accomplished

[rose perch]

I don't want to give away your deck so I can't say anymore.

[fast frost]

I use different decks so I don't mind

[tropic slate]

there were sure reactions when I fought noko

[rose perch]

well you stay on 1 character and only did 1 element. there was no reaction

[tropic slate]

i just highrolled through them lol

[fast frost]

I used the tighnari, fischl, and that bloom monster deck right?

[rose perch]

no you did raiden.

[fast frost]

Ah, that one

Chongyun, Raiden, and Razor

Yeah, I get what you’re saying now

I didn’t do too good with that deck.

[wary heron]

[twilit steppe]

4 losses in my last window and I'm pretty sure almost all of them are from skill issue

[wary heron]

im 20-7 and really need to win the last 8 games

[fast frost]

I only won once today

[twilit steppe]

Omg same

[fast frost]

I’m going to make sure I do way better next time

[arctic valve]

come on duck, i'm queueing, come and take the victory i snatched from you last time

[fast frost]

Yup, I lost the sheer majority of my games

[jovial needle]

3-1 in this session. Gonna play my last game when leaderboard settles.

[fast frost]

My place will probably be 60th

[pearl hedge]

rare footage of SI losing

[wary heron]

wtf its joever

there is literally no way for me to win

[lethal spruce]

What is this
This can't be real

[wary heron]

[lethal spruce]

no way that happened

[wary heron]

well its real

[lethal spruce]

i should go back to sleep

[rich wasp]

lost to the sweet madame despair

ggs

[wary heron]

dw, i just had the worst lowroll pyro kek game ever

[rich wasp]

im 18-6 i dont think im making it lmao

[wary heron]

had to tune pyro res, mond res, all my cards

[rich wasp]

took too many stupid losses trying to get games done fast

[lethal spruce]

you probably could tbh

this isnt asia

[wary heron]

im 20-8

fucking impossible for me

27-8 surely

[lethal spruce]

14-10

[rose perch]

you can always just rest and leave some money for the rest of us

[wary heron]

[lethal spruce]

[wary heron]

im poor

[lethal spruce]

youll get free wins from me

[lethal spruce]

felt

[wary heron]

[rich wasp]

xd

maybe

[rose perch]

btw if we are max out on welkin what happens? Are the rewards able to be delay?

[wary heron]

i have no idea

[lethal spruce]

probably not.

[wary heron]

maxed out on welkin

[lethal spruce]

you might just get the 300 genesis crystals?

[lethal spruce]

me at 5 days left

[wary heron]

i mean

[lethal spruce]

[wary heron]

im sitting on 80something days here

[lethal spruce]

[rose perch]

300 genesis is way worse than 3000 primogems though 😦

[lethal spruce]

its not like i need the primo tho...im sitting on almost 20k

[wary heron]

[lethal spruce]

but the more i can save for c6 zhong, the better

[wary heron]

AND THAT IS WHY I DO NOT PLAY NAHIDA EC.

[jovial needle]

Nahida na and oz

[wary heron]

and that is why i do not play nahida ec, part 2

[jovial needle]

This is good rolls though

[wary heron]

nahida is deadge

[twilit steppe]

Only if you want to use Fischl I think

[wary heron]

wtf im never running tossup again

the most lowrolly game in existence

my whole hand tuned

proving my point, i got 3 usable dice r3. AGAIN.

[jovial needle]

Is this luck issue or is nec not a good tournament deck

[twilit steppe]

Today I got defeated with NEC two times, so maybe it also depends on luck🤓

[wary heron]

its luck issue on my end

but im somehow still surviving

[arctic valve]

i just won against nec

[wary heron]

nec is bad deck

i get crap dice when playing it

[jovial needle]

My score vs nec in this tavern isn't good too 2-2or3

[wary heron]

wtf

i havent faced nec at all this tavern

[jovial needle]

Lucky ig

Can't believe i lost to yae mmec 2 times.

[twilit steppe]

I faced it thrice won one lost twice

[jovial needle]

Having trust issues with pyro keq

[jovial needle]

Ur pfp is defination of edgy

[twilit steppe]

Sorry I'm currently contemplating my 15 losses

[jovial needle]

Oh no. Dw u will make it next time

[lethal spruce]

that'll be me before the end of the day

i have 9 more matches to do before this touney ends

[twilit steppe]

Thank you

[wary heron]

ok i quit

im not playing nahida ec again

[twilit steppe]

Omg I hope you don't become like me🤓🙏

[wary heron]

fk

i have to tune my entire fucking hand

just to do something

2 GAMES IN A ROW

ESPECIALLY AT THE CRITICAL MOMENTS

[lethal spruce]

NEC is strong....but only if you have luck

and some of us dont

[wary heron]

i bottomdecked everything

rolled 2 usable dice per round

[lethal spruce]

[wary heron]

didnt draw adeptus or ihly last round (which would have won)

[rugged crane]

someone locking me in perlim round halp

[wary heron]

just got shit ass luck

im quitting

actually nvm

even if i dont qualify i can still stop others from qualifying

[lethal spruce]

huh

[lethal spruce]

That's the mentality.

[rugged crane]

nvm they just take forever to respond

[wary heron]

SURELY I CAN SQUEEZE IN #16

not likely tho

[rugged crane]

y not

[wary heron]

9 losses

[rugged crane]

its never over till its over

[wary heron]

[rugged crane]

doable

[lethal spruce]

Gorgeous. Just gorgeous.

[wary heron]

you stole my dice!!1

thief

[lethal spruce]

Sorry duck

I need em too

[wary heron]

smh

but im the one who had a chance to qualify

[lethal spruce]

Watch me get rainbow dice next round

Tru

You're the better player here

[wary heron]

ngl imma give nec another shot

it was worth it

[lethal spruce]

Niceee

[wary heron]

god i fucking love nec highroll

even though it was technicalyl not really a highroll

and im still not dead

ok nice im back on track

[fathom fog]

Ended up 29/6 guys 1st for now! But someone will pass me for sure 😂 I have so much fun play this ladder love to play this tournaments 🥰🥰

[fast frost]

Congrats

[wary heron]

its ok i think you qualified

but i probably didnt

[fathom fog]

What’s ure score now?

[wary heron]

22-9

[twilit steppe]

That's still 5 less than me at least

[jovial needle]

Well u might hhv a chance if u go undefeated

[wary heron]

i lost 2 games due to actually insanely stupid diceofcringe

and 2 games due to insanely stupid cards of cringe

rng just isnt on my side

[strange peak]

People having fun on the last day it seems

GL to yall

[wary heron]

i am not having fun

.

i lost 2 games

due to ass dice

[twilit steppe]

Same🙊

[wary heron]

and im very sad.

[strange peak]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-shuba-shuba-sad-hey-ya-subaru-duck-gif-23745917

[wary heron]

one should have been a win, but it was a combination of ass cards and ass dice

[fathom fog]

Win that last 4! And hope u can do it

[wary heron]

OH NO NOT NEC

[strange peak]

Just hope they get ass dice/cards too

[fathom fog]

Destroy it

[wary heron]

sure

[wary heron]

nec with lowroll is unplayable

[strange peak]

Nahida/Zhong became a no-no for me due to my bad rng

[wary heron]

unironically my rng is worse

[rose perch]

man i got up early today and still lost tiebreakers. How can they play so fast.

[strange peak]

You are talking to a guy that played 2 tenshukakus and they never proc'd from 3 turns

That's why I have trust issues

[gilded notch]

@strange peak are you competing?

[strange peak]

Not this week... had a lot of things to deal with, HuTao style

Just came back from the temple

Unless I played while doing prayers...

Also, wasn't feeling confident on my new decks and style

I think I need to delete them all and start from scratch

[rose perch]

we need more deck slots...

[lethal spruce]

We do..

[rose perch]

please someone tell the dev

especially for tournaments which requires 7 decks.

[lethal spruce]

Time to write to CS

[gilded notch]

I didn't do too well thanks to my lack of mental strenght, coudnt play my best when there was something at stake

[left pasture]

Ah, so this is the cat's tail discussion

I rarely talk here-

[strange peak]

We are just AIs to keep this place busy

[left pasture]

I- Okay then?

[strange peak]

https://tenor.com/view/hffgf-gif-22453222

[strange peak]

1st tournament was like that... barely any brainpower to play 10~15 matches everyday

[jovial needle]

This place will go quiet from tommorow

[deep plank]

So Tired

[strange peak]

It always does when Seasons are over

[lethal spruce]

Yup....until next patch.

[gilded notch]

Last month I droped out because I had near 0 pratice and HSR came out that week

[deep plank]

Any pro Chongyun raiden & Razer player want to have some practice

[tropic slate]

do you need practice with ting cope or against it lol

[strange peak]

I have a ShenHe Chong Razor prototype deck... could change a few things

[deep plank]

Cool

I just had some taste of that desk

I think it's somewhere between aggro and midrange

[strange peak]

Ok back... had to redo it cause it was crap

[deep plank]

Something like this I guess, wharf should be removed

[strange peak]

Varanara... add 1 more Liben instead

Or meby not

I haven't seen the latest matches with it

[deep plank]

Nara is a very flexible card, though it doesn't change the color of dices

I usually use Liben when getting bad dices

[wary heron]

[gilded notch]

I hate how varanara can brick liben

[strange peak]

^

[wary heron]

thats why i dont play it as much

[rich wasp]

deck looks standard enough, id just try to slot in seelie somewhere?

i know the CN shenhe sc lists never run liu which confuses the heck out of me bc liu lets you have a very smooth opener

but i guess

and yeah ideally 2x liben

[wary heron]

im so not gonna make it

also i need to be there at the last queue session

so i dont think i can sleep

[hushed gull]

stil in queue?

[twilit steppe]

Oh yeah I noticed this too, maybe I should add Liu Su to this deck I stole from a Chinese player🤓😭

[strange peak]

I always run Liu Su in every deck

[deep plank]

Liu will be a nice combo with the 3 cost cards

[strange peak]

At least 1

You can even go with ShenHe E then Ult and move on to other chars

[deep plank]

But maybe, Tian will be better than liu

[ocean gulch]

how is calx in place of liu. its shenhe e to ei e calx opener

[deep plank]

cuz, when u charge raiden with liu, then after raiden burst

the second usage of liu will be wasted

[rich wasp]

hmge

[wary heron]

[ocean gulch]

it did felt bit expensive

[strange peak]

Until you switch back to Ei

[rich wasp]

i kinda like it but it feels weird starting shenhe swapping to raiden then back to shenhe

it does smoothen the opener a lot though

i’m pretty sure liu is just better than that though

you can do the same thing but with chong skill so you get chong to 3 energy

with liu

[ocean gulch]

its great opener vs slow decks but vs fast its worse than liu

[wary heron]

oh fucking god, with a leaderboard like this even 26-9 isnt gonna save me

[rich wasp]

could argue quill > 1 energy on chong and also that calx better late game

[rich wasp]

should have went to eu deadge

[ocean gulch]

it really came in clutch once when i got sennd offed

[wary heron]

my eu is on ar 25 deadge

[rich wasp]

i need to win a lot in a row

to make it lol

[wary heron]

needa win my last 3 games here

so dont queue into me si

[strange peak]

7 people still need to finish their 35 matches... have faith

[rich wasp]

i think that’s a reason to not have hope

[wary heron]

yep indeed

[south tiger]

are you going to be free the whole last session si

[wary heron]

no queue

nvm found queue

[rugged crane]

what do i do?

[lethal spruce]

Ping them

[wary heron]

[lethal spruce]

If they don't respond, ping someone with the Genius Invocator role

[rugged crane]

i think they are hosting me hostage

o well whatever

[strange peak]

Ping that mdfk till he confirms

[wary heron]

[lethal spruce]

Yes.

I'd say you'd be justified

[wary heron]

hit ping until you cant hit ping anymore

[lethal spruce]

That's just evil.

[wary heron]

i am evil

[strange peak]

Ducks are evil

[twilit steppe]

This person can reply but can't click confirm...?

[lethal spruce]

Not you, them

[rugged crane]

yep he confirmed as soon as que went down

[wary heron]

but im still evil

[lethal spruce]

Yes you are

[lethal spruce]

Wtf....

[wary heron]

[strange peak]

https://tenor.com/view/laugh-laughing-manical-evil-duck-gif-4535981

[twilit steppe]

Hopefully that person got one strike or something #evil🙊

[wary heron]

i just misplayed

and forgot about keq stiletto

[bold widget]

That's such bm but it's ok, nobody's in the queue anyway except me apparently

[strange peak]

Mulligan it into the deck

[bold widget]

I have 5 more minutes to see if anyone else is here haha

[wary heron]

not me

[bold widget]

Duck we need to play our childe mains game

[wary heron]

oh yeah

[bold widget]

Maybe tomorrow or something if you need eep

[wary heron]

i dont need eep

actually, im planning to not eep the entire night

because if i eep

[bold widget]

You'll miss queue?

[wary heron]

i wont be able to wake up in time for the other queue slot
