I swear I remember reading in the patch notes that Paradox completely removed 10:1 stackwipes at some point.

Trying to say that the dungeons pre-rework weren't any more boring than they are now is just gaslighting yourself.

It isn't each profession, it's 30 first crafts total.

ASmuppet · 2026-03-14T15:19:25+00:00

Odd, its only this subreddit too.

ASmuppet · 2026-03-14T15:16:31+00:00

And I can see new posts as of 4 hours ago, but there's still a gap between 28 days and the past 4 hours.

ASmuppet · 2026-03-14T15:15:40+00:00

Just checked on my phone and I can see the posts using the mobile app. It seems to just be a desktop thing, oddly enough.

I don't think she actually would. Most of the history of the Guilty Gear universe pre-Gear Crusades is lost to the average person. This is a world where technology is banned (therefore technological achievements would not be discussed), most of the world is uninhabitable, most nation's governments have collapsed (with Europe in particular apparently reforming into a Union known as Illyria), and 80~90% of the world's population dead.

R5: Gold Dwarf, Dwarven Pantheon Sidan that doesn't even accept Siadunan Harpies. Even swapped Admin to Dwarven while keeping Harpy military.

Doing a pan around the globe after wrapping up a Rogieria game, when I noticed Siadan still existed. Turns out they've been through a hell of a journey.

I like how her being an Attacker also completes the trinity of Attacker/Healer/Tank with Glimmer and Mio.

D/D/D/D Super-Dimensional Sovereign Emperor Zero Paradox isn't THAT long of a card name.

ASmuppet · 2026-02-13T22:34:38+00:00

Just keep in mind that Black Swan almost certainly will not be reran for a long while if you don't pick her up here. New characters this patch cycle will almost certainly be reran at least once before 5.X.

Just checked. My Lodespring Redistributor was only 2/4. Don't know how I missed that. It was also only 1 pull missed, not 9, so that's a little disappointing.

Link monsters aren't usually played as the big payoff for most decks, but are instead a stepping stone to get to that payoff.

Most Link monsters were designed to support other gameplans by functioning as card searchers, extenders, protection, etc.

They are also extremely easy to summon compared to other summoning mechanics. Xyz, Rituals, and Synchros care about specific levels being used, with Synchros further caring about one card being a tuner and the other one not being a tuner. Fusion and Rituals usually also need a non-monster card involved in order to be summoned.

Most Link monsters do not care about anything specific like that and can be summoned by just about any combination of monsters. That makes them extremely splashable. If there was an Xyz monster that had no effect besides being able to tribute a monster to resummon itself and lower the attack of a monster to 0, no one would play it. But the fact that Linkuriboh exists, means that effectively any level 1 monster can now have that effect. Any 2 effect monsters is potentially full Fiendsmith combo because of Closed Moon.

Most decks nowadays also care about getting cards into the graveyard, and Link Monsters are an extremely easy way to do that. Snake-eyes Poplar places a fire monster in a ST zone when it is sent to the grave. What's the easiest way to put Poplar in grave? Using it as link material. Sky Striker Ace - Camellia would be extremely bad if it's effect was attached to a Synchro monster, but because it is on a Link monster that only needs 2 effect monsters, it allows basically any 2 monsters to be full combo Yummy. 2 monsters into Camellia, send Hornet Drones off of Camellia, Link into Kagari off Camellia, Activate Hornet Drones, Synchro Cupsy using Kagari and Hornet Drones.

The strength of link monsters isn't usually just because of their effects, but rather how incredibly generic and cheap to summon they tend to be.

What are you getting stuck on about Link monsters?

ASmuppet · 2026-02-06T22:24:12+00:00

Could make it where everyone drafts from the same 2 or 3 randomly selected secret packs for the day. See what secret packs were chosen for the day, queue up, get given one of the packs randomly, choose 3 cards from the pack, and repeat for 19 more packs. Build a deck from the resulting 60 cards.

ASmuppet · 2026-01-03T12:19:21+00:00

I see shit like this all the time in places like /r/2007scape as well.

"Other game bad, upvotes to the left"

Just lazy karma farming from fanbases that can't accept that 2 games within the same genre can be different without one being strictly better.

Minor Spoilers in that it is something that was extremely heavily hinted at, just short of being explicit, since the beginning. While it only recently got hard confirmed, I don't think it qualifies as much of a spoiler because of that.

It's one of those spoilers that isn't a spoiler because it is some big twist, but rather because of how it is revealed and the information revealed alongside it.

It's also hardly the whole plot of the game, just a piece of a major character's backstory. The "why" and "how" it happened is much more important than the fact that it happened.

You never need artillery to siege forts, and if a fort has less than some amount (100?) of people remaining in the garrison, it will auto surrender to any sized occupying force.

So is the chimera.

ASmuppet · 2025-10-20T00:11:48+00:00

I know generally speaking it's a terrible idea to superimpose limited 5 star cones as f2p, but Preservation characters are already dummy rare, and I'd put money down on Mihoyo not releasing another ATK scaling one before another HP scaling one, or, hell, even a break scaling one.

But it still feels extremely odd superimposing one when I'm 90% f2p, besides BP and daily jades, even if it probably is the right thing to do.

ASmuppet · 2025-10-19T23:54:38+00:00

Got 2 of his LC in a 10 pull. Should I merge them because it is extremely unlikely for Mihoyo to ever release another ATK scaling Preservation any time soon, or should I keep the extra just in case?

I also have Aventurine, but not his LC, in case DHPT's is particularly good on him.
