there are so many lines that we can play

[static vine]

its not over yet

[static vine]

wdym lines?

[ancient spindle]

just unga bunga

[thorny crypt]

even just r1, should we play 🦂 first or 🐍

[static vine]

i do serpent and guoba card for talent

then skill when you have the bonecrusher

[pearl fern]

lines refer to like, different options/sequences of plays you can take

[static vine]

that way you draw lots of cards

ahh i see

[pearl fern]

so like if you swap stall, or go for a skill, would be 2 different 'lines to take'

[static vine]

btw can the narwhal skill get rid of Forbidden Knowledge cards?

[thorny crypt]

yes

[static vine]

yippee

[thorny crypt]

as long as it's the lowest dice

[static vine]

[thorny crypt]

just got matched against a player from leaderboard with 100% winrate
but i got lucky and somehow won

only schmedricks now with 100% winrate, and i hope i don't get matched with them

[thorny crypt]

yesterday 4-1
and today 5-0

[twilit steppe]

Oh nice, I too got your yesterday score... reversed that is

[slow mason]

6-4

this meta is painful for diona

[vivid monolith]

Diona so cute Qaq

[pearl glade]

I don’t think you really need to worry about schedricks

[twilit steppe]

Why is that if I may ask #nosy

[pearl glade]

i matched with them before

[summer berry]

You shouldn’t really care that much about early day prelim scores

Or prelim scores in general

[ancient spindle]

yeah after day 3 thing should get spicy

rn is just like a walk in the park

[maiden zenith]

i'm just faking it til I make I don't know how I've ran into so much success lol

[twilit steppe]

I already lost 4 times... I wonder how much I will struggle after day 3

[south tiger]

not everyone uses prelim as a testing field like you

😠

[pearl fern]

not my kevinz

[pearl glade]

p

[stiff crypt]

Surely 31-4

[twilit steppe]

Hopefully you're right🙏 (kopium)

[polar barn]

unlucky

[stiff crypt]

Kevinz is just built different

[static vine]

How do you get past prelims
Is there a cutoff?

[ancient spindle]

rank 16th

thats the cutoff

surely you can do it right ?

[pine heron]

[static vine]

I am currently in 32nd

But i also haven’t done my 5 matches today

So we’ll see ig

[ancient spindle]

Sound easy enough

[static vine]

I’m terrified of kaveh bloom users

Lost against 2 kaveh decks in a row yesterday

[ancient spindle]

Dw things should get spicier tmr

[static vine]

What does that mean

[ancient spindle]

You will know soon

[static vine]

Is it top 16 get welkin?

Because that sounds really nice for natlan savings

[ancient spindle]

Only after KO round top 9-16 will get welkin

[static vine]

😭😭😭

How does KO round work

[ancient spindle]

Bo3

[static vine]

With different decks?

[ancient spindle]

Yup

[static vine]

Looks like i gotta do something other than mahjong now

Assuming i even get there

[ancient spindle]

You have 1 week to prepare if qualify so dw

[static vine]

😭 im happy with my 110 primos and limited card back lmao

[ancient spindle]

[static vine]

Yesterday i got welkin out of nowhere

I didn’t buy it

So yippee

Consolation prize before i even lose

[ancient spindle]

Huh

Maybe u got the welkin from feedback form ?

[static vine]

Feedback?

What form 😭

for ctg?

[ancient spindle]

Scroll #tournament-updates a bit

[static vine]

Oh i didn’t participate in season 3 so it couldn’t have been that

[ancient spindle]

Then idk cuz it cant be ctg

[shadow wave]

played against an annoying staller

chorryCopium

would only tune a card when they were almost out of time

[rose perch]

they do that during tournaments for extra time to think though

[static vine]

Does it take 20 seconds to discard one card at a time

I think not

[willow lion]

top 16 is cut off
usually about 9 loss total from 35 game

[rose depot]

@shadow wave please gib free wins

[slow mason]

nya?

[shadow wave]

i need 1 more win smh

[potent rapids]

i still dont rlly get how this works nya

[slow mason]

you just press the start button on https://discord.com/channels/865768900662788107/1071009460966936596 and you play against whoever you're matched against

[night token]

these players this season are soo out of control

[stiff crypt]

Out of control?
Like they're strong or something?

[night token]

What do you think?

[prime scroll]

They asked you what you meant

[vivid monolith]

tavern so hard😮‍💨

[static vine]

Relatable (you whooped my ass)

First tournament is not going well lmao

I lost 4 of my 5 matches today

[twilit steppe]

Same....

[sick blaze]

This season so funny, everyone going 1-4

[coarse flume]

Not everyone

[gleaming parcel]

I finally get to play more games tomorrooowww

Today? lol

I’ve only been able to play two since I’ve worked the past few days

[gleaming parcel]

I’m excited

[ancient spindle]

[vivid monolith]

Not everyone 1-4. I got 1-14

[tacit panther]

what time do people usually play their games/how long does it usually take to queue?

[rose perch]

why am i punished for my opponent not responding??!??

[gloomy ocean]

https://tenor.com/view/hakase-shinonome-nichijou-laugh-laughing-point-finger-gif-17724245295826356642

[prime scroll]

@frozen pike maybe it's worth taking a look at?

[peak palm]

Personally, I play in the second timeframe since I have work. Over the weekend I was getting matches fairly quickly, maybe a three or four minute wait at the most?

[keen olive]

I‘d like to participate in the next tcg tournament season. Do I just have to register myself when it starts? And will the server notify me when I have the event/announcement ping role? Would be nice if someone could answer my question 😄 Oh and do you also get those pretty tcg cards if you participate? I saw them in some videos and that’s how I got here!

||This message is copied from the europe chat since nobody is online 🙈||

Have you guys already participated?

Okay nvm, two people answered me! Have a nice dayy

[sick marsh]

Imagine blatantly Queue dodging me as i am only WL 3

[gloomy ocean]

yep, don't want to fight ar32 players, im good

[potent rapids]

whats the issue with fighting a low AR player /genq

[twilit steppe]

lol?

[sick marsh]

The Spheres you have just to openly admit it, it's just a game

[gloomy ocean]

nothing wrong with it, i just don't want to

[potent rapids]

btw how would i leave queue if i wanted to (before matching) im curious

[tropic slate]

you realize you do get a strike for that?

[twilit steppe]

I didn't knew you could get a strike for that tbh

[rose perch]

you know they want you to join their world because they physically cannot join your world...

[gloomy ocean]

actually i would appreciate it if you could point out the rule that says that, because when i checked this morning, there was no such rule against canceling matches

[twilit steppe]

I think you can just cancel in the #preliminary-queue instead of accepting the duel (?)

[thorny crypt]

if you have something to do, don't accept the match

cancel, or pretend you didn't see it and let it time out
just don't do it often

[tropic slate]

Q15: Please note that canceled rounds may be considered an offense, and you may receive a Strike if it is considered so.

[sacred marten]

So what's the problem playing against low ar players

[tropic slate]

that's in the "what if my game DCs"

[rose perch]

all low ar players are invaders

[sacred marten]

They should be new to the game?

[gleaming parcel]

Excuse me?

[thorny crypt]

it's after getting matched

[gloomy ocean]

The title of that rule is Q15. I was disconnected from the game
We never even started a match.

[tropic slate]

I figure the same spirit applies

[gloomy ocean]

i appreciate you looking out for me though
but i don't think it applies here

[tropic slate]

either way, dodging your already-matched opponent is pretty poor sportsmanship regardless of the circumstances

[thorny crypt]

4-1
5-0
2-3
so bad

[twilit steppe]

At least you don't get 1-4 in 2 days I guess

[tropic slate]

this is actually quite good

[rose perch]

imagine if we were actually allowed just dodge every low ar player. invaders would be out of a job and I think most of us will have a free top 16 spot

[gleaming parcel]

How is winning 5 games bad

[thorny crypt]

i have more losses than win on the 3rd day

[gleaming parcel]

You sound like Trump but for TCG

[twilit steppe]

Maybe Lumimine refers to the 2-3 part Idk

[tropic slate]

One 2-3 doesn't kill you

just keep trying your best. This is still only 4 losses

keeping going 4-1 still guarantees you t16

[gleaming parcel]

You also got the card back and some primos too 😄

[crystal tapir]

well its hard to keep getting 4-1 because of skill based matchmaking

but like 30-5 is a pree good record

[gleaming parcel]

Speaking of, did they give out last season’s reward yet??

[twilit steppe]

I don't think so sadly

[tropic slate]

30-5 is nearly unobtainable

only max one or two people per region get there

[thorny crypt]

yeah

the first 2 days, i'm quite lucky by getting matched with mostly weaker players

[gleaming parcel]

-also @crystal tapir your deck is good :0
I still haven’t figured out how to defeat those cards yet

[pearl fern]

The most applicable rule here is probably this one. But cancelling a match for no actual reason other than you don't want to play is considered queue dodging. This can and should be reported

[gloomy ocean]

i don't think it is unreasonable to only want to fight ar40+ players

[pearl fern]

its is very unreasonable

[gleaming parcel]

It absolutely is unreasonable

[pearl fern]

wanting to fight specific players and not fighting others is exactly queue dodging

[pearl glade]

its is very unreasonable

[pearl fern]

if you don't realize this and try to rule lawyer your way around it then it's not really for me to say

[rose perch]

if this was allowed I think I would have 4 more wins right now lol

[gloomy ocean]

I would agree with calling it dodging if I had fought that player before, lost, and then canceled after a rematch. But we have never fought before.

[rose perch]

literallyed faced 7 people out of 19 that were under ar 50

[gleaming parcel]

Ar just means they’ve played less.
Some people also play tcg more than they play the main game.

[pearl fern]

in case you haven't been told, please forward this to the modmail/hotline as a report, this is not ok

[pearl glade]

ar discrimination

[twilit steppe]

I am some people after 3.4

[pearl fern]

the specific reasoning here is the low AR (32 in particular) accounts tend to be alts of players from other regions

[potent rapids]

so theres no way to just be like "wow i've been in queue for a bit im going to brb" without dodging?

[pearl fern]

so this person is trying to selectively only queue into certain types of players, which is queue dodging

[ancient spindle]

AR-cist

[pearl fern]

if you accept the match, you should play it

[tropic slate]

You can stop queueing for any reason if you're tired or whatever

but if you're already matched with someone

then yes

[pearl fern]

if you queue and can't play, just don't accept or time out

the problem here is you find out who your opponent is after you accept

[potent rapids]

im asking how to stop queueing

[pearl fern]

and then cancel based on that

[tropic slate]

...just don't queue

[pearl fern]

you can't stop queueing if you started

[tropic slate]

either don't press the button

[pearl fern]

but you can just time out

[gleaming parcel]

But not always… and it feels kind of xenophobic to assume that everyone under a specific ar is from another region and this everyone under a certain ar should be barred

[pearl fern]

and that's not the same as cancel

[tropic slate]

or if you did, just don't answer the prompt when it matches you

honestly if I was going to queue dodge I would dodge the AR60 players I know

like fucking runatobio

who I'm 0-2 against now

[gloomy ocean]

rule q14 clearly allowed for cancelings matches. I am simply following the rules as it is stated.

[pearl fern]

we're talking about different things. THis is cancelling a match after you click Accept

[tropic slate]

and who REFUSES to play heated battle

[pearl fern]

sure, you are allowed to cancel if you want. But you are also able to be reported for it and have it investigated

I'm not gonna debate you over whether you can or can't cancel. I'm just saying the act of doing so is clearly reportable and should be

and then the TOs can decide

it's not up to me

[gloomy ocean]

they can investigate and see we never matched previously, and that we never entered each others worlds. It is the same as if we had never been matched in the first place

[gleaming parcel]

Canceling is permitted, but the reason why you canceled is important too.

[ancient spindle]

Well fron my experience, i did do that once and got myself a strike so do it at your own risk

[pearl glade]

i need to queue runa. she's the only golden card backer i havent collected my win from.

[ancient spindle]

[pearl glade]

if i beat her i have officially won against all the top prince from na region

at least once

[gleaming parcel]

Canceling because you realize you don’t have enough time to play a match is different than canceling because you refuse to play against someone just because they are a low ar

[tropic slate]

that's a bold accusation

[pearl glade]

accusation?

[tropic slate]

they beat me with conwhale while I was using your deck

so be prepared

[ancient spindle]

Surely Runa can give you a free win

[tropic slate]

or, bold claim

[pearl glade]

ah

[ancient spindle]

Say the magic word

[gleaming parcel]

Also if you’re a strong enough player why does it matter who you play

[potent rapids]

also to be clear ppl r lilsting their results by day but it doesnt actually have to be 5 each day right, just can't exceed 5 per day total right?

[tropic slate]

I'm also salty against runatobio specifically because, for both times

they have left me sitting there on the last turn for three whole minutes while they figured out how to minmax their whale hp

when they could have just skilled twice to win

which is extremely tilting

[gleaming parcel]

I’ve only played 2 games before today, so I’m catching up
You can play as many games as you have a day

[potent rapids]

ok whew

cause i also need to catch up xd

[gleaming parcel]

If you have 20 games to play, you can play 20 games a day

[tropic slate]

there's no per day total, technically. Just the overall quota, which rises by 5 per day

[gleaming parcel]

(I don’t reccomend that personally, but you can if you need to)

[tropic slate]

If you're not already at the quota you can play as many games as you want until you reach it

[pearl fern]

SI does that and it's insane

just queues like last 2 days

[twilit steppe]

Agree some people just need to learn to play better instead of complaining about the invaders (TM) for the 127th time 🤷‍♂️

[pearl glade]

real

ctg is not for the weak

it's to face the strong

thats the point

[potent rapids]

what are the "invaders"

[pearl glade]

just players from another region

[gleaming parcel]

I didn’t like sucking so I got better
I’m no first place player but I can hold my own now to the point where it makes playing fun

[twilit steppe]

People outside of the region, playing in region they're not in, for example if I play in NA now lol, but currently I am playing in Asia for SS points (copium)

[pearl fern]

I don't want to speak too against the ppl who complain about invaders. I get the frustration

but that doesn't excuse unsportsmanlike conduct

[gleaming parcel]

it’s also wrong to assume that everyone under a specific ar is an invader

[pearl fern]

it's wrong but mostl ycorrect haha

esepcially AR32

[sacred marten]

18 matches in 4hours is my record

[tropic slate]

there are a couple of people who just don't play Genshin Impact any more but do play tcg, so their account is stuck at like AR40

[vivid monolith]

Me

[potent rapids]

i dont play genshin but still play tcg but im ar60 xd

[pearl glade]

it's nothing to be frustrated about. i think a lot of it has to do with xenophobia, nobody complains about players like kevin invading.

[tropic slate]

I absolutely complain about kevin invading

he should be satisfied being the best player in EU

[sacred marten]

Me but ar56

[tropic slate]

no need to make the rest of us feel bad by also being the best player in AS and NA

it's very rude

[pearl fern]

wym I think ppl complain about kevin/binzu all the time

[twilit steppe]

Me too kind of, I have like multiple world quests & like hundreds achievements I haven't gotten maybe it is Genshin burnout

[pearl fern]

well

[potent rapids]

i mean in a way it is xenophobia but also it's kinda objectively true that the asian servers are more competitive simply by nature of the community hating tcg less (or at least less vocally) combined with lots more tournaments

[pearl fern]

not all the time but

they do, just less because they're also community members

[vivid monolith]

Is revealing opponent’s deck allowed

[tropic slate]

yes

[pearl glade]

i will delete if you wish

[tropic slate]

look you're playing conwhale

you don't really get to claim the surprised deck thing

[twilit steppe]

I think yes but could be considered rude (?) at times maybe

[tropic slate]

especially since we've fought twice tobio and you used the same deck both times

you're not playing for the surprise factor

[sacred marten]

I think they don't have a rule about this in ctg

[vivid monolith]

Oh the first time I didn’t know how the deck worked. Once you know the lines, it’s easily defeatable

[thorny crypt]

[gleaming parcel]

Do you have advice for playing against the beast / narwhal deck??

[vivid monolith]

I just explained if you have healings I lose

How can you not calculating this. You are top 32 Atlantic

[thorny crypt]

i'd like to know that too
i keep getting matched against it

[sick marsh]

issokay, just felt a little hard done by that someone thinks AR32 players are easier, In my experience Invaders are the most competitive people to play against

[tropic slate]

I retain the right to be salty

because it felt excruciating

[thorny crypt]

AR 32 players are mostly invaders

[sacred marten]

Play mona-kaveh and pray they don't know how to play against it

[twilit steppe]

I would like to know too

[rose perch]

ar 32 is like 90% invader. especially if they been here for a couple of cats tails. Just daily commissions alone would put you out of ar 30 and closer to ar 50 in just 1 or 2 patches

[gleaming parcel]

Kaveh is such a suprise power card lol

[twilit steppe]

Oh yeah Kaveh bloom is effective against beast narwhal players who struggle piloting the deck, in my experience that is
But for people who is good at the deck... well.. it don't work unless they are unlucky I think

[pearl fern]

that was just an excuse I imagine. You can and should report it, since you might not be the first player to have this happen to. But up to you in the end

[tropic slate]

BCGRxTINFkHiymINCpFy0jEOFBEC3TQQFEEy9YMQGWEh98ARDILxCcIUDbIRPMMSDTEB

has like an 80-20 matchup into it

[sick marsh]

I know, because i am one

[tropic slate]

unless they know exactly what they're doing and you get kinda unlucky

[vivid monolith]

Well I do feel sympathetic a little but you can’t blame your opponent for spending time calculating

[gleaming parcel]

Help what does this mean

[tropic slate]

it's a deck code

[thorny crypt]

and usually AR 32 players are stronger than AR 50 players (based on experience)

[sacred marten]

Kaveh is a good deck in lower rank in my opinion

[twilit steppe]

A deck that is countering nawhal beast deck probably

[sacred marten]

If your opponent is much stronger then you, the best why to win is believing in luck

[twilit steppe]

Oh I see.. hopefully I got matched with lower rank (super kopium) edit: aka people in the same level as me I guess

[gleaming parcel]

Oh, I don’t have a way to copy that code as a console player

[vivid monolith]

This is so rude tbh

[tropic slate]

you can load it in https://act.hoyolab.com/ys/event/bbs-lineup-qskp/index.html#/pc/publish and then copy it over

[tropic slate]

...leaking my own decklist is rude?

or was that not directed at me

[vivid monolith]

Your opponent is just doing regular math, not even bm. And you just say f word to her

[twilit steppe]

||Well Blue also did that to another person ||

[tropic slate]

ok that I do apologize for

my rage got the better of me

think of it as an expression of my frustration with the skill gap between us

[sick marsh]

@thorny crypt we face eachother now

[gleaming parcel]

Oh it was a good f word

[thorny crypt]

i didn't expect that

[sick marsh]

yeah i need to catch upp

[gleaming parcel]

Same Sakura

[vivid monolith]

I accept that. Btw Idk people really feel that excited to win one game against me in tavern. I’m just a common player who wins and loses

[tropic slate]

you're a gold cardback

[gloomy ocean]

unsportsmanlike conduct is using multiple accounts to play in multiple servers, and this is even laid out in the rules
Q8: Participation in multiple servers, while not strictly prohibited, is not recommended.
if even the rules itself are even saying it's not recommended,

[gleaming parcel]

What does a golf card back mean

[vivid monolith]

Means I play golf

[twilit steppe]

Which means RunaTobio is one of top players IMHO

[tropic slate]

honestly it's as objective a measure of "this person is a top player" as it gets

there are at most like 16 people per server who have the gold dragonspine

and there will be fewer than that for the gold chasm

[vivid monolith]

Join

[sacred marten]

24 in asia actually

[pearl glade]

i dont think youre a common player i seen you play and i think you are talented and a deep thinker.

[vivid monolith]

I lose all the time

[pearl glade]

ofc it's natural to lose to other good players

[tropic slate]

:pressXToDoubt:

I'm 0-2 to you this ctg so I can't substantiate that claim

[pearl glade]

but i think the experience of challenging another player who is talented is great experience

kinda like if im playing against ssomeone in chess or starcraft

[rose perch]

playing against good players is fine I just dont like they have more raffle tickets. Like I am sitting with 1 raffle ticket and they have 3 and get in more practice games. Since they are an alt you don't know who they are so it is a hidden name and god knows how many more they have.

it is nice that invaders dont have access to kusava though i doubt they will finish aranara quest for that card

[maiden zenith]

it was quest locked? lol

[rose perch]

yep there are a few of them now that are quest lock on the top of my head i believe Lumenstone, Kusava and rhythm of the great dream are all quest locked

[twilit steppe]

Yes along with Lumenstone, Rhythm of Great Dream, Pankration the last is the most annoying one, at least it's not a meta card rn lol

[maiden zenith]

oh wow that's hysterical

I knew pankration not the others

[rose perch]

this is why all the invaders are playing sayu for the most part

[sick marsh]

double Gold cardback as well, not even i have that

[sacred marten]

It spent me another 3hours for my TW account

[rose perch]

ya it is worth it to do chasm for lumenstone i think

Just hoping for more naltan region lock cards to shut down the alts

[sacred marten]

But it is like less then an hour to get one

Except the one in jail

[raven fiber]

Pankration is good, but the mission is looong

[rose perch]

btw fun fact about lumenstone since we on the topic they added this recently it is nice that the devs do care about us.

[raven fiber]

cool QoL is it the same for Jeht? in hand

[sacred marten]

It is added this version and i LOVE this

[gleaming parcel]

Yes I’ve noticed that on a few cards, it’s super nice!!

[gloomy ocean]

Yeah amazing isn't it

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1097733134696587265/1250201450064248932/kek2.gif

[maiden zenith]

stove arcane does it too
no longer have to pay attention at the start of the round or dig through the move log to remember what round it is lol

[ancient spindle]

i hope there's a warning appear everytime im using event card against judgement

[rose perch]

the UI can still use changes. Like a round counter, hand of player/opponent counter to name a few

[thorny crypt]

12-6

[twilit steppe]

The little red 3 below your card?

[ancient spindle]

yup

[gloomy ocean]

i don't think they will add that. One of the perks of judgement is catching your opponent lacking

[ancient spindle]

but its too OP

[gloomy ocean]

better be, it is an arcane after all

[ancient spindle]

me and my 1 braincell everytime i got Judgemented

[gloomy ocean]

fortress slips me up many more times than judgement

[ancient spindle]

dw no one will use fortress in their decks

stall decks r deadge

[sick marsh]

You can burn Judgment with forbidden Knowledge btw. Just found out in CTG lol

[gleaming parcel]

me still technically using a stall deck

[white cipher]

Same

[gleaming parcel]

I really enjoy this deck cause when I play it right I get a ton of dice, which makes up for the meh damage

And no, I’m not using magic engine or Jeht

[ancient spindle]

well at least you can enjoy the tournament thats matter

[gleaming parcel]

Yee, I just enjoy my deck which makes playing a lot more fun

[gloomy ocean]

Uses Marechaussee Hunter then?

[gleaming parcel]

I also haven’t seen any one with a deck like mine which makes the wins more satisfying for some reason?
I’m by no means a top player but it’s fun

[gleaming parcel]

Yeeee

[gloomy ocean]

I find it funny mh works off field when in game that set doesn't work for off field characters
But I like Marechaussee Hunter decks, kind of stall lite some of them

[gleaming parcel]

yeah, I run it with Neuv double hydro and it’s amazing

it’s my own magic engine

It also works great with fortress too, because with the team it’s really hard to not hit that 4 points every round

[potent rapids]

does this deck beat anything else

it looks kinda

[tropic slate]

it does really well into yunjin and kaveh too

the play is to start on herald, use as many dice as possible to ramp r1

then spread some hydro r2 until herald dies (or at least loses his first health bar) and triggers talent (which you should have gotten either from your mull or from stormterror's lair, ideally in r1)

then go nahida, do her 5cost

round 3, go cube and hold forward

[thorny crypt]

3-2 today

[raven fiber]

6-0 so far today, but now i have Nyahida

[tropic slate]

good luck!

[ancient spindle]

oh NA peeps starting late

i see

[daring shoal]

[gleaming parcel]

Nope

Lol I’ve been over this

[willow lion]

🤔

highlighted text means pinged already

[gleaming parcel]

I literally will only get a ping unless I stay in that channel for queuing
If I’m in another channel, another server, another app, whatever, I won’t get a notif

So if I go to do something while I’m waiting for queuing I’m screwed

tartaglia layla

[vivid monolith]

[pearl glade]

he was testing end of the line bow

[willow lion]

they should make tcg player fish to get the fish bow

[pearl glade]

😭

i will literally cry

[willow lion]

buy the card at the fish shop LOL

and then make that card busted so everyone has to go fish

[pearl fern]

omg

[willow lion]

i'm going to hell for suggesting this

[pearl fern]

fishing gated card

would be hilarious

[pearl glade]

tcg player: aw shit here we go again

[tropic slate]

looks at my 6000 fish

hell yeah

[pearl glade]

wtf

[pearl fern]

sasuga bird

[tropic slate]

hold on lemme screenshot

[pearl fern]

the real crazy ppl are the ppl who've done the fishing achievement

that thing is like

serious dedication

[willow lion]

even better, they release a new type a special fish that u need to fish to get the card

[pearl glade]

how many adepti fish you got

[willow lion]

i've done it

tbf after they added that auto fish gadget it's easy as shit

but i did it before they added it

[pearl fern]

wait

there's an autofish?

lmao

this bloody thing

[willow lion]

well, it's assisted fish, but it works like auto fish for weak fishes

like medaka

it just takes a bit longer for the bar to build up

[pearl fern]

I see

all that for 20 primos

it's actually worse than CTG rates

in some ways

[willow lion]

LMAO

[pearl glade]

there's a bug for fishing that basically auto catches fish

[pearl fern]

that's kind of unbelievable

[pearl fern]

I can't tell if you mean, bug as in game bug

or bug as in bait

like an actual bug

you put on your rod

[pearl glade]

game bug

[willow lion]

me when i pun so hard i don't even realize i'm punning

[pearl fern]

damn

[willow lion]

had

god

[pearl fern]

https://tenor.com/view/why-huh-but-why-gif-13199396

[willow lion]

i fished 2k just for the achievement but bro does fishing as a hobby

wild

[pearl glade]

if memory serves (bc i havent played the main game inawhile) you hook the fish then you interupt/pause the game with menu and the progress bar still completes

[tropic slate]

fishing is actually really relaxing

in video game, not irl

[maiden zenith]

I thought I was wild with my 2250 lol

[tropic slate]

i had a kind of rough time and I just sat and fished and listened to podcasts every three days

was nice

[pearl fern]

I was kind of trying for all achievements

[pearl glade]

i like irl fishing

[pearl fern]

but then they put that fishing one there

and I was just

nah

hehe whatever floats your boat I guess

or your bait

you need like a fish card back for that

[tropic slate]

I believe I do currently have all obtainable achievements

I'm a completionist

[maiden zenith]

it didn't take too long, especially if you go for the tatara tales collection
I think with all regions now you can get like 100 fish by clearing out all the spots day and night (pulling that number out of my ass but it sounds about right lol)
so it doesn't take too many sittings

[sick marsh]

I'm like 2 wins off being on the NA leaderboard!!!!

[pearl glade]

very nice

[pearl fern]

the leaderboard has not updated in a while

fyiu

[pearl glade]

@sick marsh whats your win rate

[pearl fern]

I don't think it has for the afternoon queues

unless you actually hit your ranking

[maiden zenith]

yeah was going to say it's been stuck for a while
that or 60 seconds is a lot longer than it used to feel

[pearl fern]

every 60 seconds a minute passes in gitcg

[pearl glade]

my spam clicking my rankings button

[sick marsh]

10-3

[pearl glade]

very nice

[pearl fern]

yeah the leaderboard is probably past 11 wins by now

[sick marsh]

oh noo, i now have Elizabeth!

[serene echo]

what

[maiden zenith]

I think she died in like 2022

my humor is immaculate

[stiff crypt]

I have done it
I have 100% achievements

[pearl glade]

you just reminded me that she died
i just assume she's alive as she always has been

[stiff crypt]

I'm also doing all possible archives

[maiden zenith]

respect for your doing 800 leylines lol

at like 430 something and it's just... argh not happening for a while...

[stiff crypt]

I've done that

Right now I'm trying to get friendship lv. 10 on all characters
Which is not really important

Btw, is the leaderboard on America not updated yet, there should be more people play 20 games

[maiden zenith]

I'm getting close to all friendship 10. 8 on the pipeline and after that only 5 left

[stiff crypt]

Same, only 5 left

[pearl glade]

@stiff crypt are you playing na this season? i thought you were eu player

[maiden zenith]

yeah it hasn't updated for a while, but the personal rank check is up to date

[stiff crypt]

I see, that's why it's kinda strange, only 4 players with 20 games

[stiff crypt]

I'm Asia player

But I'm kinda give up, just testing decks now

[rose perch]

NA leaderboard is broken it stop updating since this morning

[pearl glade]

wanna play my fun deck?

[stiff crypt]

When?

Or you meant trying your deck?

[pearl glade]

yeah

[stiff crypt]

[pearl glade]

dang just finished my last game of the day

im 3 matches in

now

[stiff crypt]

I'm just trying meta decks / popular decks / the decks my opponent used to defeat me on tournaments

[pearl glade]

fair enough

@gloomy ocean sorry about that i thought thread closed

i clicked confirm

you should be good

[stiff crypt]

Like 🐍 🦂 🐋
I still can't use the deck well, but I've got some ideas from watching my opponents' gameplay, just need practice

[gloomy ocean]

Not a problem, GG

[pearl glade]

ggwp

[stiff crypt]

Or some types of freeze decks

[pearl glade]

double dragon is solid

id personally not focus on conwhale

cus i feel like it's prob gonna get nerfed

it has reached the AEC level threshhold

[stiff crypt]

Apep?

[pearl glade]

newvillette azdaha layla/ice cube

[stiff crypt]

I see

I haven't tried that, and I also don't know how to use the deck

[pearl glade]

it's a powerful combo deck

only bad thing about it is it's boring to play

my personal opinion

[stiff crypt]

I won't try it, then

[night token]

Snake, scorpion, and whale deck is pretty popular

It's like getting mauled by a bunch of wild animals

[ancient spindle]

oh new card gatekeeping idea ?

fishing to get card

[maiden zenith]

okay—get this:
card locked behind commission RNG
hell just make it project baby: 5 camps, 2 don't count towards the achievement, you get 2/3 right off the bat, then you do it 19 times before you get the last one...
okay now i'm just trauma dumping

[vivid monolith]

🐍🦂🐳 needs so much calculation uh

[twilit steppe]

Why does this sound like achievements comms before Fontaine

[twilit steppe]

Yeah it gave me headache personally ||as someone who once got 0.3 on a math test||

[maiden zenith]

I haven't made it to doing comissions in fontaine I still have one more left in sumeru

if rng would finally bless me then I'll only have the four fontaine achievements left and I'll be on track to finally max out wonders of the world

[twilit steppe]

...wait Fontaine has achievements comms too? I thought they don't

All this time I have been skipping Fontaine comms because I thought it gives nothing

[maiden zenith]

4 of them

[twilit steppe]

Omg thanks for telling me.. this is so embarrassing lol I will actually check my Fontaine comms from now on🙏

[maiden zenith]

I'd tell you if you needed to do anything special for them, but in still stuck waiting for the whopperflower ending of the sumeru rose commission lol

so I'm clueless

but I do have the achievement names on hand

Office on the Avenue
Not Your Average Joe
Second Childhood
New Inspiration! New Products!

[twilit steppe]

Thanks so much for this🙏 Hopefully you can get the whopperflower one, I already got that one thankfully haha

[maiden zenith]

I think I'm up to three times I've done the whole saga and not gotten the right ending lol

[twilit steppe]

Is it related to chasing the Whopperflower if I may ask? I think it confused me when I did it lol, I think I have a hard time tracking where the whopperflower go😭😭

[maiden zenith]

Yeah that one, but I haven't gotten the one where there's a whopperflower at all. Only where the flower grows without a hitch sunshine and happiness... except not for me lol

[twilit steppe]

Wow the commission RNG is so annoying omg💀 hopefully you get the Whopperflower version soon

[thick charm]

I think I signed up to not play after all

im so behind lately I think I need vacation lmao

[pine heron]

There's still 5 days left

Surely weekend is enough

[thick widget]

you're such a clown

@sick marsh you should report them if you haven't done so already

[gloomy ocean]

you seriously pinged me just to say that ..

[thick widget]

Yes!

[ancient spindle]

Dw he has 2 tries

If he did it 3 times then in the checking phase, the mods might just give him 3 full strikes

Bc i did it intetionally b4 so i know

Talking from experience

[fathom ermine]

I like tacos and 5 de mayo.

And dia de muertos.

[acoustic ether]

[grizzled cape]

[gloomy ocean]

well i received a strike for refusing to fight an ar32 player. i tried to contest it, but my appeal wasn't responded to yet. i'm not too hopeful I'll get one. I'll keep waiting though.
AR32 Players - 1 | Blue - 0
lol

i guess the tournament organizers are indifferent to my plight, instead preferring to ensure ar32 players can continue with their not recomended behavior

[serene echo]

wait whats wrong w being ar32

[twilit steppe]

Well that is what you get for not having good sportsmanship, what do you even expect lmfao, especially since at least someone on Asia server got 3 strikes for doing what you did 🤷‍♂️
Next time at least pretend you have IRL business or something Idk

[gloomy ocean]

it's extremely demoralizing to face with an opponent I'm guaranteed to lose against.

[serene echo]

im new to tournament stuff but uh

why woukd u automatically lose against an ar32 player

[alpine lava]

i think its a good learning experience

i dont really care about the 10 primos i could have won anyway

[gloomy ocean]

i don't know who this person you are talking about is, but again I want to reiterate that i never faced that person in the first place, never saw their deck, never even entered their world.

[twilit steppe]

Oh my bad about the not knowing the player part, well not everyone know and that is alright
However what are you doing is still queue dodging lmao

[gloomy ocean]

because ar32 players are notorious for being extremely strong and skilled players. Way stronger than just a casual player like me who just wants to compete at my skill level

[serene echo]

ur entering a tournament tho

wouldnt u expect to go against stronger players

[twilit steppe]

Yeah 😭 also how do you even know they would defeat you if you don't even know what is their deck lol?

[gloomy ocean]

still i don't see how this can be considered queue dodging as it is not like I am actively choosing which player to dodge.

[twilit steppe]

...well you're actively choosing to dodge AR32 players with childish reason

[twilit steppe]

Also what even is the 'not recomended' behavior of low AR players 😭 if anything you're the one doing the 'not recomended' behavior in here

[summer berry]

🦤

Having low AR doesn’t even mean someone is playing in multiple regions anyway

[pearl glade]

I actually feel like low ar players are generally less skilled than higher ar

[pearl fern]

in the end how you feel about it doesn't matter, it's not a subjective thing

cancelling a queue because you don't want to match with a player is not a reason and is grounds for a strike and totally correct

if you still fail to see that then I'm not sure what to say

[gloomy ocean]

The matchmaking system is designed to match players of similar skill levels. When someone uses a alt account, that disrupt the system, making it unfair for all participants, not just their immediate opponents

[sick marsh]

i ran into previous and current Goldcardbacks & i didn't queue dodge them, i took my L's like a man

[ancient spindle]

just let the TOs decide when they review the cancels

[pearl glade]

Basado

[ancient spindle]

[pearl fern]

the TOs already decided

I'm just refuting the points that don't make sense

[pearl fern]

skill level is determined by tournament record, not AR

[gloomy ocean]

I am referring to this line in the rules.
Q8: Participation in multiple servers, while not strictly prohibited, is not recommended.

[tropic slate]

I don't want to say I told you so, but...

[pearl glade]

Even tournament record not a good indicator except the very top

[ancient spindle]

its real and i can confirm

[summer berry]

It says it there. It’s not prohibited

[twilit steppe]

Low AR /=/ participating in multiple servers 😭 and just because others are doing unsportsmanship behavior doesn't mean you can do another type of unsporstmanship behavior

[pearl fern]

If you want you are welcome to try and report players too for doing this. That and what you got a strike for are totlally differnt things

that rule isn't an excuse to queue dodge

[pearl glade]

Cant report for thing that isn’t prohibited tho

[twilit steppe]

Yeah... people participating with 2 accounts in same server is grounds for disqualification actually happened to someone at least

[gloomy ocean]

No it doesn't, which is why i set my limit to, what i thought was a reasonable, ar40.

[pearl fern]

well, since you like the rules so much where in the rules does it say you can choose who you play against

I'm pretty sure I never read that we can just choose what AR we match into

[gloomy ocean]

the rules should be updated to make this clear, as you said it's subjective, and such a subjective thing should not be given a strike in my honest opinion.

[pearl fern]

sure, you're welcome to give that feedback. But I don't think it's been subjective for anyone else up until this point

[ancient spindle]

well if they stated that in the rule then the problem would just be invaders grind their account to AR 40+

[pearl fern]

please show me any tournament where you can find out who you're paired against, say "no thanks", and just find a new person to match up to

[gloomy ocean]

not specifically choose who you play, but rule Q14 states uses for the cancel match feature, and I don't see how what I did was outside the bounds of how it can be used.

[pearl fern]

also if this was a genuine misunderstanding, it would be pretty easy to just say you misread, but to me it just seems like you're trying to reverse engineer a justification based on the rules and willingly misinterpreting it

[twilit steppe]

In Q15: 'Please note that canceled rounds may be considered an offense, and you may receive a Strike if it is considered so.'

That is very clear to me 🤷‍♂️

[pearl fern]

I will just say - if you continue with this attitude of going into spaces and arguing "well it doesn't say I can't in the rules" - you're gonna have a bad time

[twilit steppe]

I think cancelling matches because you have IRL stuff to do is extremely reasonable and shouldn't be punished, but if the reason is because you don't want to fight someone that is kind of embarrassing..... 😭

[pearl fern]

that's pretty much all I'll say about it. The TOs already resolved the issue from the tournament standpoint. I just wanted to present a learning opportunity, and if you don't take it that's fine

[gloomy ocean]

you aren't the first person to mention that rule, im confused as to why people bring it up. i had to reread it again to double check I understood myself.
but the title that rule is apart of is Q15. I was disconnected from the game, does it count as a loss for the Preliminary Round I'm currently in?

that doesn't apply in this case, at least to my knowledge, as we never started any game

[pearl glade]

The idea of ar 40 requirement does sound interesting ngl

[twilit steppe]

Well, even if mere disconnection & concede can cause strikes (which I think can be unfair), what do you think will happen if you cancel solely because you don't want to fight someone 🧍

[night token]

Did you even read all of the rules?

[pearl glade]

@frozen pike do you know how i can access the previous private queue room? It doesn’t show for me this season.

[tropic slate]

in #preliminary-queue click the threads icon at the top

[pearl glade]

Ty!

[gloomy ocean]

I'll keep my request open, I would appreciate if the TOs could talk to me directly, but as it stands there isn't much point in discussing it further here

Anyway, much more importantly than any of this though.
@pearl fern
I was really quite surprised and taken aback by your reaction yesterday.
I want to seriously sincerely apologize if I offended you in some way. I really tried to cancel my match as respectfully as possible, but your reaction yesterday made me second guess myself.
I think you're a cool person. I really like your content. I don't want you to hate me or have things feel awkward now when I show up on your live streams

[sick marsh]

There is nothing subjective about the way you dodged me. You should have just not responded at all

[gleaming parcel]

Is someone dodging matches again??

[rose perch]

it kinda offends everyone cuz if we can all do it we all have higher win rate. It just cheating there no other words to describe it

[gleaming parcel]

Exactly. You’re skipping someone you assume is an invader because you think you will lose against them. It’s cheating. You’re looking for players you think you have a better chance of beating

lol the emoji

[ancient spindle]

[serene echo]

also like whats the point ur gonna go against players better than u eventually

[night token]

Sounds like you're making excuses to not take accountability

[gleaming parcel]

This ^^^

If you’re a strong player it shouldn’t matter who you play

[twilit steppe]

Oh yeah if you have high winrate you will get matched with better players anyway sooner or later. Dodging most or all of them would be ridiculous lol
Even with my 50 percent winrate I still get matched with a top player if I get higher winrate I will probably only get matched with top players

[serene echo]

yeah i got matched w top 16 people when i was 20something 😭

[night token]

You could've just accepted the match, play and move on

[gleaming parcel]

I know better than anyone, losing is part of the game

[night token]

If i lost, I just kick ppl out of my world

w/o saying a word

[ancient spindle]

Yo that means

[rose perch]

i honestly believe there is no matchmaking it just whoever happens to be online unless they also take into account of old records

[gleaming parcel]

At this point I just try to get 5 wins for the primos, and even when I lose games I like playing the tournament now to learn about new cards and decks and just get experience

[twilit steppe]

I wonder how the matchmaking works tbh.. outside of several times (one of them being a top player who only have 2 losses out of 20 games ) I actually get matched with people on my level most of the time

[gleaming parcel]

I’ve come a long way from my first tournament lol

[tropic slate]

I do think it does its best to match people of similar records together if they're queueing at the same time

I assume it works the same way as other ranking systems, where it widens the gap progressively as you wait longer

[gleaming parcel]

It’s supposed to match based on win %, but if there aren’t a ton of people queuing you might get someone else

[rose perch]

just yesterday I have 8 losses out of 19 and i faced nyhida who was 4-0 like what?

[gleaming parcel]

As the days go on, most of the people left are the top players

[quasi mango]

4-0 isn’t really a good score though

[tropic slate]

kevin be quiet you are noob

4-0 is a great score

[quasi mango]

🦤

[rose perch]

no it isnt but it shows matchmaking is nonsense

[gleaming parcel]

That’s a 100% rate lol

[quasi mango]

1-0 is also 100% win rate

[gleaming parcel]

Exactly lol

[ancient spindle]

well i mean there should be about 10 games to be calibrated right ?

[gleaming parcel]

Optimism

[crystal tapir]

just let me lose the rest of the game and go back to minecraft pls

[quasi mango]

Normally you’d think it’d be ridiculous to match a 1-0 player with a 25-0 player

[tropic slate]

I think the furthest swing I've experience is a 10-game difference

[twilit steppe]

I wonder if they match people with 5 wins difference at max or something like that

[ancient spindle]

oh no Proxy is active

i forgot

[quasi mango]

I’m going to bed

[ancient spindle]

even worse you play CTG in your sleep

💀

[pliant mesa]

dream about playing CTG

[pearl glade]

Wait if proxy is online it means kevin should be queuing rn. I should get home and queue asap

[pearl glade]

Rip nvm

[pliant mesa]

game no matter if you are conscious or not

[ancient spindle]

yeah i thought so too

[pearl glade]

Gamer moment

[gloomy ocean]

i guess it's too late for apologies then. that's seriously really depressing

no amount of dumb primos or whatever is worth this

[ancient spindle]

well fyi if you get 3 strikes you wont get your prize

so yeah

[gloomy ocean]

not talking about any prize

[ancient spindle]

i thought you said primo

[quasi mango]

I mean who cares just don’t cancel matches in the future

[ancient spindle]

yeah

[gloomy ocean]

no amount of primos is worth having people hate me

[quasi mango]

[ancient spindle]

at least i dont

[serene echo]

kaveh just discarded kusava

its so joeover

i hate this game ghpoasdufipoksdajgoph

[quasi mango]

Worrypat

[ancient spindle]

well you bring inconsistent Kaveh deck so yeah

https://tenor.com/view/quagsire-quag-plush-pokemon-nuo-gif-22234137

[quasi mango]

[serene echo]

[ancient spindle]

why isnt there any gif about shiny quagsire

smh

[twilit steppe]

LOL I remember when my Kaveh discarded Mausoleum I would have defeated my opponent's key character if it was a 2 cost card. I only won solely because my opponent misplayed

Maybe I should just put 3 cost cards on his deck minus arcanes

[rose perch]

is it possible to block forbidden knowledge by simply having 10 cards in hand?

[serene echo]

i think so

[twilit steppe]

Yeah the Forbidden Knowledge will get discarded if you have full hand I think

[rose perch]

it ended up being the biggest counter only in kaveh decks cuz when sometimes their bloom only does 2 damage lol

i havent really seen a case of it working out in other decks

[pearl fern]

Not at all - I don't take any of it personally, I mostly just wanted to make sure you understand so you don't get into further trouble and be completely banned from the tournament is all.

Thanks for the support and hopefully I didn't come off as too harsh

[serene echo]

how to stop having skill issues

[alpine lava]

be more lucky

[tropic slate]

only one person played heated battle for poins with me today 😦

so many people here just hate fun

it's disheartening

[serene echo]

real

[crystal tapir]

i just dont find heated fun

points are fake anyways

honestly minecraft funner lets play minecraft

[tropic slate]

but my diluc / razor / itto deck goes hard in heated battle

[pliant mesa]

reject gitcg, embrace minecraft

[tropic slate]

how is that not the most fun

than just playing the lines with meta decks that we're all tired of

snooze

[serene echo]

i like heated cuz u can be bad and still win through luck

[tropic slate]

yes! that too.

[vivid monolith]

Is the system not working😨have been waiting for 20 min

[tropic slate]

the bot breaks sometimes

try pressing the queue button again, if it doesn't work then ping the qixing

[pearl glade]

does quagsire have mega evolution

[tropic slate]

it does not unfortunately

not yet at least

maybe pokemon Z-A will add one

[pearl glade]

shiny quagsire

[ancient spindle]

Shiny quagsire

[pearl glade]

[ancient spindle]

This is mega evololution

Gigity

[pearl glade]

giggity evolution

pepega

[ancient spindle]

It can immnune to all known disseases

[pearl glade]

dang it's actually a thing

wtf

[daring shoal]

why does the image on the top row on the very right give me braney vibes

[stiff crypt]

You shouldn't refuse, you have to play against anyone you matched with

[stiff crypt]

From what I know you're the one who's wrong here

[stiff crypt]

That's a game, I wouldn't refuse playing against tournament winners ||even though I actually want to avoid that|| if I get matched, I'll play with anyone

Even in this season I play against players from leaderboard with 100% winrate several times

[stiff crypt]

It doesn't matter because you're already get matched, if you don't want to play just don't accept it in the first place

[maiden zenith]

there's no convincing to be had here unfortunately

[night token]

People can ignore reality but reality cannot ignore them

[vivid monolith]

4-0 isn’t a great score, but my Nyahida is great

[pearl glade]

Nyahida goodge

[serene echo]

whats nyahida

[pearl glade]

NA top player

[vivid monolith]

This is Nyahida, aka 2nd place in NA Prince Cup last year. Why is he so good👍I really admire him.

[serene echo]

oh

[vivid monolith]

@vagrant nexus hi can you confirm the result? I have two more servers to play

😨

[vagrant nexus]

sorry

[pearl glade]

Wish he played more… i feel like he got burned out on tcg lately.

I don’t see him on rmm anymore

[vivid monolith]

He’s doing secret tcg training in mc

[tacit panther]

not me thinking i have a decent deck only to have only won 1 game

[pearl glade]

out of how many?

and what deck

[tacit panther]

6

its a yun jin, raiden, ayato deck

[pearl glade]

hmm yeah i can see how it would get countered by current meta decks

[tacit panther]

yeah its a little slow

and not stall-y enough

[acoustic ether]

the only way i found to win against kaveh is using kaveh lol

[serene echo]

or conwhale

[acoustic ether]

i always end losing to kaveh when i use any other deck

[serene echo]

i keep losing to conwhale as kaveh lol

[acoustic ether]

wrong image

[twilit steppe]

LOL that Kamina person sure love Kaveh haha

[serene echo]

actually i lose to conwhale with everything

[vivid monolith]

how can conwhale lose to kaveh😨

[tacit panther]

i also hate wriothesley

[serene echo]

ive beaten conwhale w kaveh bc oppononent misplayed

usually conwhale wins tho

[twilit steppe]

Sorry for this but how do you lose to Kaveh as Yun Jin

[acoustic ether]

i have lost more than four times against kamina kaveh lol

[twilit steppe]

Also the beasts narwhal deck is hard to pilot so I can understand people struggling with it

[acoustic ether]

i lowrolled didn't get even a single weapon lol

[vivid monolith]

Conwhale is the only t0 deck this patch

[twilit steppe]

Oh that indeed sucks
