[round orbit]

Is this?

[spice ravine]

yes thanks

@round orbit

was there any wrong reporting

in ur score before

or everything was fine before adjustment phase

🤔

[round orbit]

I had one match where my opponent didn't approve the result
I sent a replay to the operator and they counted it as a win

[spice ravine]

so the win was counted today

i see

thanks for cooperation

[wary silo]

@odd juniper the knockout brackets look real wack

[round orbit]

Has the tournament format changed this time around?

[cloud sparrow]

@glass vapor this definitely is not how top 16 single elimination works

What is this bracket

[odd juniper]

hol' up

[odd juniper]

what do you mean by this

[wary silo]

it is currently 1v2, 3v4, ... instead of 1v16, 2v15, ...

[odd juniper]

oh, it's not correctly seeded

[wary silo]

also the end times are weird

[odd juniper]

yah, an issue happened for real

[cloud sparrow]

The seedings is 1v2 instead of 1v16 and so on

[odd juniper]

hang on there are 2 issues LOL

bot doesn't recognize the timezone given to it

bad Sussy

[obsidian steppe]

then fix me

[odd juniper]

waw

[frozen iris]

🦤

[wary silo]

incident noted

[half oak]

[plucky roost]

Sussy is being bad time to eat it

[wary silo]

sounds like Sussy is not beating the emergency food allegations

[cloud sparrow]

[obsidian steppe]

hoo... looks like Sussy is fixed, that's quick, alright

[odd juniper]

all it took was a few whacks

[cloud sparrow]

Sussy is speed

[odd juniper]

thanks! and pls lemme know if Sussy broke things again~

[cloud sparrow]

Sure sure

Ty ponpon

[wary silo]

will she be punished if she breaks things repeatedly

[cloud sparrow]

No punishment to sussy

She's still learning and trying her best to do things correctly

This qb

[cloud sparrow]

This mizuna

Asks too much questions

[alpine pecan]

What did I do??? That's your username that's more sussy than sussy paimon

[cloud sparrow]

[wild fractal]

seems there will be another MINIGAME

[wary silo]

oh no not the

[stable sequoia]

.

[wild fractal]

Happy disappear for a day

Seems Happy wanna another minigame and beat eu's 1st place

[wary silo]

that EU first place though...

[silk kelp]

Is 'minigame' even allowed anymore by the mods?

[spice ravine]

i love minigames

[subtle shard]

Did someone say MINIGAME?" Zen'in materializes out of thin air, holding a large keyboard over his shoulder. Before you can reply he whips out P and ENTER keys from the keyboard and slams them on the floor, cracking the ceramic. "I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE RULES!" you yell in desperation, but it is too late - Zen'in had already stacked four Sussy Paimons in your living room. You close your eyes in resignation to your fate as your house is obliterated in a massive DDoS attack.

[cloud sparrow]

Ah when yk you can't beat your oppo

It's the best strat

They should be just straight up disqualified

[plucky roost]

Happy is pro choosing the best strat to qualify

[wary silo]

tbh that sounds foul

[karmic marsh]

i support happy

gatekeep ctg for global players

cn players have enough chances

[glacial vale]

Not the right way to gatekeep

Just beat them

[karmic marsh]

i agree

[wild fractal]

it's discrimination

[glacial vale]

Nah then why aren’t we allowed to participate in cn tournaments

[wild fractal]

do it

[karmic marsh]

more like its very difficult for us

[glacial vale]

Don’t have a cn acc

[wild fractal]

u can do it if u have a cn account

[wary silo]

you can't say that to most players

[glacial vale]

U realise not everyone can make cn accs right

[spice ravine]

CN has hard time winning in global anyways

[wild fractal]

R cn players playing in global born with a global acc

[spice ravine]

i suppose let them be

or it would be too easy for us

[karmic marsh]

anyways not a great time to bring up the resentment of global players towards cn players

[spice ravine]

we need more competiton

[wary silo]

no, but legally nothing stops them from making a Global account

[karmic marsh]

we need more players and more tournaments

not smurfs

but whatever what do i care

i honestly hate cn players

[spice ravine]

this time CN has best chances in asia tough

[glacial vale]

Not on nomads watch

[wild fractal]

why would u consider it as smurf

[spice ravine]

[karmic marsh]

global player quality sucks 😔

[wild fractal]

Dont underestimate my mates

[karmic marsh]

prince cup is a joke

[spice ravine]

i stopped CN inavsion in NA

beat 2 players out of the lb

[wild fractal]

They r not bot and play well

[glacial vale]

U can do it in asia too

[spice ravine]

[wary silo]

shhhhhhh CJR don't say that out loud

[karmic marsh]

play slay the spire

[spice ravine]

never

i respect raelly

he puts up a good fite against me

and is raelly good with his decks

[glacial vale]

We never underestimate cn players in fact global players respect them

[wild fractal]

Someone said the global plays bad and I disagree that's it

[wary silo]

no I mean you literally blew your cover as a HK/MO/TW player

[wild fractal]

my mates=global players

[karmic marsh]

cjr is one of us

[glacial vale]

I am confused

[spice ravine]

wait

midstream and really has best chances to win this asia ctg

let's see what happens

i don't know who Chamberlain is

[karmic marsh]

sweep them i believe

[wary silo]

all you have to know is that Happy is choosing the most incorrect way to stop a CN invader

[tiny dirge]

[wary silo]

whether you're with it, it's up to you

[tiny dirge]

[glacial vale]

Bro I never supported happy

Plz read the message and then reply

[spice ravine]

plot twist: happy is invader himself

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/805662532354048060/1192856149297471488/1096961646053826700.gif

[glacial vale]

Where did I support happy

[tiny dirge]

Regardless of if cn players have more chances to play competitively

It’s not like it’s their fault for choosing to participate

[spice ravine]

hello mr obvious

CN players is healthy for the meta trust me

[glacial vale]

Yeah I agree

[tiny dirge]

[wild fractal]

I just feel discrimination happens a lot

[spice ravine]

it makes me feel good that im playing with strong players

[wild fractal]

on global, on cn, on kr players

there are a lot

[glacial vale]

I just state that it would be nice if global players can play in cn tournaments too

[tiny dirge]

I look down on everyone equally

[plucky roost]

Well if global is this easy why cant i see Falcon in KO round

[spice ravine]

pe

[sly briar]

is falcon CN?

[spice ravine]

i heard ll lost to ll

[glacial vale]

Falcon isn’t the only cn player tho

[spice ravine]

he is asia invitational winner

and yeah Cn

[sly briar]

so

falcon isnt in KO cause hes not an invader

what a nice guy

[plucky roost]

[spice ravine]

🚮

this gang leader

[sly briar]

u used the wrong sticker nomad

[glacial vale]

[sly briar]

[wild fractal]

yeah u can

[spice ravine]

i couldn't process that either

[glacial vale]

Lol lost a few braincells

[wary silo]

gosh CJR do I have to tell you again

[sly briar]

[wary silo]

we're in Tavern archondarnit

[wild fractal]

download cn version dc, paypal, account, as cn players did

[sly briar]

is it illegal to invade china as a global player

[spice ravine]

global players are lazy

trust

[glacial vale]

I was told cn acc needs cn number

[plucky roost]

Okay my CN trainning arc soon

[cloud sparrow]

PayPal works for anything

[glacial vale]

Cn Genshin acc

[wild fractal]

As we all know cn app is in another system out of global

Try to follow and dont be lazy

Think about CN guys learnt global framework before that wouldnt be a big obstacle

[green yacht]

From what I understand you need a qq acc to play in tournaments (except the most prestigious one?) and any phone number can be used to make a qq acc

[spice ravine]

come with ur real acc

gang leader

[plucky roost]

Omg it the legendary shiny Quagsire

[spice ravine]

alright boys CN arc soonge trust

[plucky roost]

Yup

Global strikes back

[severe heron]

[karmic marsh]

theres no way for me to create qq account

[spice ravine]

star wars : the global strikes back 🙂

[plucky roost]

GITCG wars: the global strikes back

[brazen rock]

yes yes I agree with glasse

leave all the worries behind once you step in

[alpine pecan]

Too much drama about cn players invading Global, while Asia players are invading Europe and America

[sturdy coral]

You’re not wrong there is definitely bias against china

People from EU and Asia invade NA and no one would bat an eye.

But NA would disproportionately complain about chinese players

Its dumb

[slow trout]

I want to play with cn ppl but making acc is pain

[worthy jacinth]

Chaos and dramas: a brilliant play is playing

[pastel geyser]

The final or third-place match was between Cn players.

[worthy jacinth]

but I’m not between them

😦

skill issue

[brazen rock]

I'd argue it's the underdevelopment of regions outside CN

which results from the lack of competition

due to low playerbase

[worthy jacinth]

well actual

[karmic marsh]

play slay the spire

sts

[pastel geyser]

Cn ranking competitions can attract 1,000 people in half an hour at the latest.

[brazen rock]

even GITCG server itself has declining numbers imo
and weeklies/majors there look weaker compared to a year before

[brazen rock]

gitcg doesn't even attract three dozens per each region
not even a hundred across all servers
on a weekly basis

[worthy jacinth]

since this in-game card game is declining.

[brazen rock]

that's a massive difference

idt it's the game's issue per se
but how inconvenient it is to play

[pastel geyser]

number of competitors itself is small.

[brazen rock]

a thousand is small

[worthy jacinth]

no fresh blood, no new player…….. that’s the macro issue they are facing.

if an organism lose the ability of reproduction, we can image what will happen

[pastel geyser]

Japanese players feel that there is a slight upward trend

[worthy jacinth]

ummm…….

idk

[spice ravine]

hoyo need to make gitcg inclusive

[worthy jacinth]

almost impossible

they tried hard but even not make nuance difference

[open moon]

i feel this way for global in general!

hopefully it continues

[pastel geyser]

very good

[umbral lava]

Big updates like this upcoming in 4.7 usually makes hype at least for a while

[open moon]

i'm really excited for some of the characters in 4.7

furina!!!!!!!!

[severe heron]

[umbral lava]

Me too, a lot of cooking for us

[worthy jacinth]

Is there really a cause and effect between dazzling new characters and new cards versus more players?

[brazen rock]

I think there is
but it's percentage-wise
a year ago GITCG was still hype so the difference felt stronger
now we will get some returning/curious people, but since the general playerbase is lower, less people will join yeah

[brazen rock]

hmmm random rmm for eu, and even in arena, felt really dead
maybe it's different for different regions

I am also not checking out GITCG of other regions, so may be wrong

[verbal stirrup]

The number of Japanese players is steadily increasing.
This is because two very famous Vtubers are hooked on Genius Invokation TCG.
　https://www.youtube.com/@NishizonoChigusa
　https://www.youtube.com/@masui99
Recently, there was even an influencer-exclusive Genius Invokation TCG tournament.
I'm really happy about this.

[spice ravine]

opop

[meager patio]

[silk kelp]

Oh I didn't knew popular VTubers in there love GI TCG, that's cool haha

[brazen rock]

that's a good sign indeed:D

[viscid fox]

Genius Invokation TCG.

[cloud sparrow]

And then they are getting jp exclusive tourney again

We global players only have one tourney whole patch

[verbal stirrup]

Almost all tournaments held in Japan are open to everyone.
I’ve never heard of Japan-exclusive tournaments.

[karmic marsh]

opposite is happening for the english speaking community, but im glad the jp community is seeing development

[worthy jacinth]

……..

hope this is sustainable

not like 2B2T

[karmic marsh]

gitcg is a joke

[verbal stirrup]

Language differences might make participation difficult, though.
But that applies to all players, so I wouldn't call it Japan-exclusive.

[viscid fox]

i trust global ladder soon

[karmic marsh]

ill be no1 asia

🥹

cope

[viscid fox]

i trust my glasse

[karmic marsh]

my ting

ill unretire just to spite everyone

🦤

[cloud sparrow]

iirc it was mentioned that it's jp exclusive

[wary silo]

well, as far as I know, yes, all JP community tournaments are open to all (thank you guys so much ), but in terms of official tournament JP gets an extra in the form of the Campus tournament (#tournament-updates message)

[cloud sparrow]

Oh wait I wasn't talking about the tourney you guys hold, it was about the campus tournament

[glacial vale]

Bro campus tourney is for jp that too it’s only to the students

How do u expect participate in that

[wary silo]

except even there we have world-class players

[verbal stirrup]

Oh, I see. Indeed, the campus tournament is limited to Japanese university students and those who have graduated within the past five years.

However, there are many Japanese individuals who still can't participate. For example, people like myself who have graduated more than five years ago, or high school student TDNmegane. It's a tournament with a specific concept, so I guess it can't be helped...

I want to participate in this tournament too!!!🥺

😭

[pine cliff]

[spice ravine]

there was one ph only tournament

a while ago

[barren mirage]

their contribution is immeasurable

[sly briar]

japan and korea got prioritized, they literally got their voice-language ig'

the only tournament outside of JP - CN -KR or globally is manmade

[wary silo]

they even get their own Astra Carnival channel, and some people wondered where The Prince Cup Japan/Korea were when they were mentioned on Asia Invitational

[spice ravine]

it was impossible for me to find the kr/jp prince cup vods

had to ask people for the link

[jagged merlin]

Mausoleum 👀

[foggy loom]

anyone took a look at the new cards? 👀

seems to be a theme of "discarding cards"

[meager patio]

[rotund bluff]

Big fan

Hello -o---

[cloud sparrow]

Just buy a mini chocobar and add salt in it

[alpine pecan]

[plucky roost]

why add salt when you can add more Nutella

[subtle shard]

[jagged merlin]

Happy for him

[fading creek]

wait you can get a badge?

[sturdy coral]

What does it say

[wary silo]

@verbal stirrup just a passing thought but do you mind having your card ratings with other JP players posted on Reddit?

[verbal stirrup]

Of course ok!

[wary silo]

[brazen rock]

sent the feedback for implementing a CTG queue inside the game
it would be a huge QoL that could help bringing GITCG to the masses, so I encourage all of you to do the same!

[minor hatch]

cool idea

[inland jacinth]

hehe cool

anyone prepared any deck for this season's war?

[red fox]

umm has the event started yet

[trail dragon]

I want to register, but always fail

[wary silo]

@odd juniper shall we whack Sussy again

[odd juniper]

hmmm

[odd juniper]

pls try again now

[trail dragon]

I still can't, I'll try again tomorrow

Done

[odd juniper]

looks like too many are registering

[brazen rock]

summer vacation helping out I guess

[alpine pecan]

Should I register? Don't feel like tcg-ing

[inland jacinth]

better than nothing

[sturdy coral]

there's a limit to the amount of players that can register for ctg

id not register if you dont wanna play

[minor hatch]

there is??

[umbral lava]

There probably is but I doubt it was ever reached

I never heard that someone wanted to register but couldn't

[minor hatch]

i thought that was just too many ppl do it at once and broke the bot

[wary silo]

the limit is currently set at 6000 but we rarely, if ever, breach half of that

[jagged merlin]

We cant even reach 6k players

Man, they need to promote it more

[wary silo]

where's the launcher carousel when we need it

[rotund bluff]

[open moon]

Has this been suggested before?

[wary silo]

for a brief moment back when Prince Cup Wild Card was open for registration it was on the launcher carousel

TCG should get more carousel uptime though

[subtle shard]

What carousel?

[wary silo]

this

[subtle shard]

What do banners have to do with tcg?

[brazen rock]

it's not just banners - it's advertisements

and people suggest they include some info about gitcg tourneys

[subtle shard]

Oh

Yeah that would be cool

[marble haven]

Lmao

Help pls

I registered but I've never done this before, so I'm desperately reading every FAQ on here and going back through every old discussion and praying I don't violate a rule by accident 💀

As far as I understand, any random deck is okay for the prelims? And we can even play heated mode if the opponent agrees

[wary silo]

yes and yes

[marble haven]

Thank you!

[inland jacinth]

and oh
i suggest not to surrender

I rarely do that anyways dw, I do disconnect sometimes but it should be fine since we'll also be on Disc?

Another 35-0 missed

Don't worry. I'm just joking. Lost my interest in genshin to register

Are you planning to make my missed 35-0 a reality

In game is also offline

i'm doing really well so far
6-0
but i get the feeling i'll get washed again like usual

[lone ember]

havent found time to unlocked the character cards, but i got all the new beasts

turns out i can just make do with those

[trail dragon]

7-0

Surely 10-0 in my dream

I get matched players from leaderboard 3x in a row

[trail dragon]

Oh no.... I get matched with player that's 9-0

4 of 5 my opponents are from leaderboard
One of them is even 9-0

[trail dragon]

8-2
And both losses are against 🐍 🦂 🐋
Maybe I should try to use it too
I think I've got an idea how to use it, just need practice

[wooden sapphire]

Hey guys

My results

Are stuck

It's been like that for 10 minutes

[wooden sapphire]

Ohh, I'm 6-4, what's your deck btw?

[trail dragon]

Hmmm.... A secret

[brazen rock]

consecreted deck

[plucky roost]

Mahjong

[alpine pecan]

[plucky roost]

[rotund bluff]

[glass vapor]

[trail dragon]

I plan to use it on other server, but I just realized I didn't have the card from chasm

[trail dragon]

What's mahjong?

[plucky roost]

🀄

its the deck you r using

[trail dragon]

Btw, how's your matches so far?

[plucky roost]

0-0

i havent played yet

cuz im washed anyway

[lone ember]

consecrated mirror matches

[sturdy coral]

[trail dragon]

Surely 35-0

[inland jacinth]

3 of my lose come from them 💀

[inland jacinth]

guess I'll start playing heated battle mode instead

[umbral lava]

Wow same

[trail dragon]

Just tried 🐍 🦂 🐋 deck
And I lost against freeze deck
I keep drawing too many cards, and I don't know how to deal with it
I'm so confused which card I use to / discard
But it's fine, my score is still 1-1 using the deck

[inland jacinth]

try bursting with scorp i guess?

or is it block cards or deck cards?

[trail dragon]

Both

And when I tune I need to think tune same dice cost cards
Or should I ignore that?
Or maybe make a deck that's mostly same cost?

[brazen rock]

I mean yeah you basically should account for everything
Although in real matches it’s more of “can I get more whale stacks” rather than doing everything just for its health

[cloud sparrow]

You need to practice it before playing in tourney, you'll mostly lose if play it in tourney for the 1st time against those who play whole patch

[brazen rock]

Or be a gigabrain and play perfectly from the beginning :trust:

[cloud sparrow]

That's peak strat

[trail dragon]

Doesn't have the time to practice, so I just practice on the tournament

I have played against it so many times, so at least I have an idea how to play it

[inland jacinth]

one missed healed shouldnt be a problem (i hope)

[alpine pecan]

[lone ember]

how does whale's ulti summon work, i still dont have a clue

[plucky roost]

whale nom nom

whale poops out a summon

summon deals dmg when you end round and deals dmg at end phase

you can even use summon to block dmg

[lone ember]

interesting, how does the dmg and usages get calc tho?

[inland jacinth]

i have no idea

[lone ember]

exactly

not a darn clue

[fading creek]

it's to do with the cards you've eaten from passive

Here's a video description of it if you want a short guide https://youtu.be/5Mg5C-Ukkgk?si=Unbh_7ApuKc4Cwue&t=641

[plucky roost]

summon dmg bases on the highest cost card whale nom nom
summon usage bases on the amount of highest cost cards whale nom nom

whale is like a baby

just nom nom and make a poo poo

hope this help

[lone ember]

🙏 will watch that, thanks

[lone ember]

in fact it might have thanks

[inland jacinth]

owh
you're here
hi blep

[fading creek]

Hehe hello

I'm lurking around since I'm playing this series

[brazen rock]

Where’s new academy lessons

[fading creek]

I might record one tonight haha

look the 4.7 reviews were 1h of videos

[idle quest]

blep guide is da best, we need new lessons asap (at least before the tournament ends)

[fading creek]

this one won't be relevant for the tourney haha it's a 101 covering basic stuff

[plucky roost]

i want a video guide about how to win CTG every season

[fading creek]

get a good deck from KevinZ and have it work

[plucky roost]

[fading creek]

it worked with seasauce and it's working now

[plucky roost]

the sauce part is easy but the later part is just too hard

[fading creek]

it's doing well into most meta but I've also lost against every conwhale player so far

[wintry lintel]

then get conwhale deck from runa

[still phoenix]

[wintry lintel]

😤

[inland jacinth]

since this tournament is so brutal I've come up to play heated battle mode every chance i get

[fading creek]

Haha yeah I've seen a few other ppl playing heated too

It's nice that it's an option

[frozen iris]

Copy crimlet’s ddragon list bye

kevin has shared his wisdom

[plucky roost]

why ddrag when you can play triple drag

[trail dragon]

Practicing 🐍 🦂 🐋
Sometimes i can't keep track the cards I have discarded / tuned

[pine cliff]

Take notes

Writing down like 333/223/000 on notebook helps

[plucky roost]

nah thats just too complicated

just prayed

and tune/discard

hope it will be +3 HP

[trail dragon]

Do people usually write it?

[trail dragon]

That's what I did before, looking at match history is so confusing

[plucky roost]

just keep track your last discard card

if you r lucky its +2 or 3

[pine cliff]

I had a secret notebook for something like this

[trail dragon]

Gambling again

[trail dragon]

I see

I hope hoyeverse will add features of card list that has been used, tuned, and discarded

Match history is really bad and confusing

[wintry lintel]

There are so much calculation happening this deck

[lone ember]

cant wait for the 🐊 🐦 🐅

[subtle shard]

True!

[sturdy coral]

True!

[silk kelp]

Is the bear farting or running swiftly

[sturdy coral]

the emoji name is "dash" therefore running swiftly

💨

[inland jacinth]

hmm

i wonder if you use Xinyan's burst, will it count from left to right or vice versa?

like when you have 000112 card

[fading creek]

I believe someone tested and it just goes highest to lowest

[trail dragon]

[plucky roost]

yup it goes highest to lowest

[median pond]

tbh working with non-alphanumeric IGNs is a pain

[stark stratus]

everyone wants to play conwhale deck

just why

I can't beat it

I'm gonna lose my shit if someone says join them

[lone ember]

i feel the kaveh whale deck is strong vs that conwhale deck imo

at least that's the 2nd deck i had to pick up and use, after my conwhale got stomped consistently by kaveh

but then again im just terribad

ymmv

[wary silo]

just counter with freeze ig

[stark stratus]

I have been playing freeze but it feels so underwhelming

I have no dmg

[thorn zephyr]

I’m new to tcg a bit but there’s a pattern of new cards getting released and then dominating the rest before they get reworked to be more balanced next patch. It’s prelims and there’s no card restriction so anything goes
Conwhale and kaveh bloom are powerhouses and I think the counter is freeze decks and/or including herald and cube for their revive passive to survive snake burst

[stark stratus]

"survive snake burst" more like deterring snake burst

just do Scorpion burst instead

[glacial vale]

Malding doesn’t make any sense

It’s just this patch

[stark stratus]

I'm too stupid anyway

what stops them from not nerfing mid patch anyway

we already have precedence

hello, Yelan?

im actually curious on a personal note, how fast whatever the current meta is gets churns through and evolves before the next TCG updates + encouraged meta shift

like did all the big brens already solve the meta for all the current possible decks?
seems like with the amount of new characters etc. there could be some more room for things to shake up

but im no deck builder, just deck copier

donzo with all my rounds this season, yet another negative win:loss ratio

meta keeps changing but same things stays the same

[stark stratus]

I'm at 9-11

wonderful number

it's like even heaven is begging for me to get banned

[slow trout]

[silk kelp]

Just checked and I am currently 55th with a 🚮 winrate either this tournament don't have that many players or many of the pros still hasn't played yet

I remember placing like around 200ish with similar winrate

What's your score?

18 wins 17 losses

[wild fractal]

pay me 200 pts

[barren mirage]

[spice ravine]

best i can do is 5

i can give 2-3 people 5 points each

just paypal me $4000

[alpine pecan]

For such a low price

[lone ember]

was given a strike

honestly not a clue why

probably my scatterbrain caused a lapse somewhere during the season

[open moon]

should definitely ask in modmail

strikes are pretty serious, even if they result in no punishment with a small amount

i've had a wrongful strike before

[lone ember]

Do strikes carry over to next season?

I kinda recall 1 round that could have been the reason now.

[spice ravine]

no

[lone ember]

welp guess ill just be extra cautious next time around

[marsh cedar]

hmmm Asia CTG just got spared atrocities

[plucky roost]

Well whats your current TCG level ?

If i recall correctly, you can farm to lv 6 in week 1 then 8 then 10

[wary silo]

I think somewhere (either here or maincord) has a list of timegates

Q: What is the current highest Player Level I can obtain?
A: Level 10 is now attainable after 5 sets of weekly challenges

Level 9 with 2380/2450 EXP is the current maximum. (After 4 weekly guest challenges)

Level 8 with 1830/1900 EXP is the maximum after the third weekly set of guests.

Level 6 with 1530/1600 EXP is the maximum after the second weekly set of guests.

Level 4 with 1230/1300 EXP is the maximum after the first weekly set of guests.
from @soul_fish in maincord

[plucky roost]

nope its old

bc there r NPC in dragonspine

you only need 3 days to grind a TCG lv 6 account from scratch

then 8 then 10

or 7 then 9 then 10 i dont rmb

[alpine pecan]

Fake

Nomad is the greatest tcg player

[trail dragon]

Why no one queue on asia now?

Queue took longer than the match

[silk kelp]

Maybe they're watching PC like me

[trail dragon]

After waiting for 20 minutes, i finally got matched, and i lost

[sturdy coral]

Dang

Do you wanna practice? @trail dragon

[lone ember]

wanna take part but so pressed with time, with other games

gotta still unlock all the new chara cards, lookup new meta decks, practice with them, then finally queue for some rounds that i'll probably lose

much pain

[trail dragon]

I don't know whether i have time to practice

[spice ravine]

u are right

why didn't i think of that before

[inland jacinth]

how's the tournament

[stark stratus]

🐳

[trail dragon]

Please teach me how to win a game

[alpine pecan]

Nomad is too great, can't teach noobs

[sturdy coral]

he makes the great ones better

someone like inzhagi

[wary silo]

good lawd what's going on in here

[humble zodiac]

Any mods online?

[wary silo]

what happened?

[humble zodiac]

My opponent surrendered the tcg match

[subtle shard]

🦤

[wary silo]

report via Qixing Hotline with the match ID and any proof not in thread

[subtle shard]

Just let them be

[wary silo]

wait

[subtle shard]

They saved you time

[wary silo]

unless they know they're losing

[subtle shard]

And they saved themselves time

[humble zodiac]

No they concede from the start of round 2

[subtle shard]

Who cares

[wary silo]

so they are not clearly losing?

[subtle shard]

Just let them be

Maybe they had to go do something

[humble zodiac]

Yes, they had misplayed the artifact on whale

[wary silo]

tbh in this case I'm not quite sure

[humble zodiac]

👀💦

[wary silo]

because it could be that they think they are in a clear loss situation

one sec lemme read the rules again

[subtle shard]

Rubbing my eyes rn because I cant believe what theyre seeing

Why do you want to report somebody for conceding

[wary silo]

the question is whether that concession is in good faith

it is a confusing matter ngl

because if this is not a concession in good faith then it violates FAQ #7 and #12

[subtle shard]

Did they harm anybody?

No

So what?

[wary silo]

the problem is whether it should be seen as giving away a win as per FAQ #7

[humble zodiac]

But according to the rules, I can’t take free win from that match

[subtle shard]

You started a game and went past R1 so it's not a free win

[wary silo]

this concession is too early into a match to not raise a flag tbh

[subtle shard]

Thats how it works in most servers

They probably didnt draw marechausse hunter or veterans visage and quitted

Which is quite a big hit in mirror

[humble zodiac]

They equipped wrong artifacts on whale

[subtle shard]

Because they probably didnt have anything else

And you highrolled

So it's understandable

Imo

[wary silo]

personally I'd still send it to the Hotline for the staff to deliberate later

ragequits this early feels like unsportsmanlike behavior methinks

[wary silo]

so I think what you should do now is ping the opponent again to prompt them to confirm the results as usual (you win, they lose), then open a ticket explaining the situation, and (if possible) add in recordings of both players' sides in that game

actually the recording is important

we want to inquire on whether such an early concession counts, just in case it does count because of how the other side could have possibly bricked

[humble zodiac]

Ok I have recorded the match

[minor hatch]

id rage quit too

if i accidently put clam instead of mare

:wechatlaugh:

[wary silo]

should we get a staff member here to weigh in on the matter

[humble zodiac]

Opponent’s POV round 2

[frozen iris]

yeah they conceded right after noticing their marechaussee didnt proc, because it wasnt a marechaussee

[wary silo]

so question: do you think that concession was in good faith

[humble zodiac]

They admitted that it was a misplay

[wary silo]

OK so I think right now just confirm the match results first

[humble zodiac]

Besides, I’m afraid of getting strike for this if I’m accept win the match

[wary silo]

per Q12, I think you should just confirm it first, and then if you still have doubts then you can open a ticket

but if you do open a ticket, remember to put in the match recordings

[humble zodiac]

Yea I had confirm the match

[humble zodiac]

Noted

[inland jacinth]

its so hurt to watch

[sly briar]

Minty ice cream is good

I never get to try Dairy Queen in Vietnam

[idle quest]

probably taste like toothpaste

[wary silo]

I swear every food and drink item that has "mint" in it tastes like mint toothpaste

[inland jacinth]

minty meat rolls?

[iron cove]

minty ice cream is perfect

[wild fractal]

true tastes like toothpaste or gum, both of them cannot swallow by instinct

That's why I dont eat mint ice cream😡

[iron cove]

[lament rock]

Can someone recommend me some strong decks? I only have 1 win from 10 games

the goal of this deck is straight, 1.draw(or keqing skill) to feed the whale 2. succesfully burst when whale is big

dont get it wrong

[lament rock]

Alright, will try

[stable sequoia]

does minty also taste like toothpaste

[wild fractal]

U never see such a long toothpaste as Minty

[stable sequoia]

[spice ravine]

don't slander my minty

with his height he looks down upon all of you

[plucky roost]

Just make him kneel b4 you and look down back
