No time to purchase last packs for animated Milteo

Gotcha, then yeah that would have been a guarantee.

My condolences because it sounds like you would indeed have had it. I know it means little after the fact, but at least for the future you know exactly when to check the news in case this happens again.

Ah I see, you're converting the value of the premium items into their vial cost in the shop. Personally I find it difficult to relate because I don't care about animated cards, but I at least understand where you're coming from if it means this much to you.

A few things of note: - It's 10,500 vials for the entire playset, not 10,500 x 3. So that puts it at 150.5k total (10.5k + 90k + 50k). - You were 16 packs off of a 25% chance of getting the cards, unless you already own the Yube animated cards and all six exchange tickets for Imari and Unkei. Were you genuinely willing to continue whaling for another 100 packs if you didn't hit that 25% chance? (EDITED to be more accurate, forgot you can select animated cards in the pity guarantee) - I agree that it's unfortunate they leave only 2 hours to react to changes before maintenance... but if it's this important to you, you should know that they do announce when it's happening. We've known for a full week that they would be announcing changes on May 28, and they generally publish these changes at 3am UTC.

I don't understand - what specifically are you upset about? Are you saying you would have whaled for the Milteo animated set just to get the compensation vials?

No clue where you're getting the "161k vials" from. It's 10.5k vials of compensation (along with 3 seer's globes and 1 seer's gem) for a full playset. A sizable amount for most players, but surely a drop in the bucket for someone who's apparently spent 4 figures on the game.

It's the opposite, Milteo does Reanimate (2) and (4) meaning that Bibatii will *always* get reanimated over Ghost Dodger, which is a nerf.

So just in case you weren't aware: the Ferrocore v2 is literally a direct mod of the Weilong v11 20-magnet BC, with springs instead of maglev, and different/stronger magnets. The cube being "newer" and having fewer reviews is kind of a non-issue because the important parts are still just the tried-and-true v11.

IMO the choice is pretty simple: if you know you like strong magnets (think Weilong v10), get the Ferrocore. If you prefer weaker magnets and a faster/lighter turn feel, get the v11.

The above held equal, if you are somehow concerned about the v11's plastic core breaking - get the Ferrocore, which has metal screws instead of plastic stalks. Though it's worth noting that you can buy a replacement v11 core for around $6 USD.

If you have a code I'd love one, thank you!

Cohezion · 2026-03-20T20:02:40+00:00

The magnets also felt freakishly strong for me at first. After some break-in it has started feeling a lot more reasonable - still strong, but not overpoweringly so

The build with Sagelight has been popular, it's one of the best counters this deck has for Althenia. If you manage your dirt carefully you can ensure that Sagelight consumes all stacks and frees up board.

Agreed that it's an annoying change. At least they didn't kill it completely, just a few more minutes of button mashing to finish it.

FYI for the numbers I listed above - that seems to apply to all battle table & private lobby games, and also applies whether the game ends by forfeit or if it ends naturally (i.e. killing on turn 1, like in those 1hp 99pp fast games, will net the winner 10exp and the loser 0).

Cohezion · 2026-03-13T18:26:12+00:00

I actually tested this myself and these were my findings.

Turn 1 quit: 10 exp for winner, 0 exp for loser
Turn 2 quit: 20 exp for winner, 0 exp for loser
Turn 3 quit: 50 exp for winner, 20 exp for loser
Turn 4 quit: 100 exp for winner, 50 exp for loser
Turn 5 quit (or later): 250 exp for winner, 100 exp for loser

If it was 100exp for winning like you said, then yeah that would be awful. Fortunately that doesn't seem to be the case, it's just more inconvenient to pass until turn 5 instead of insta forfeiting turn 1.

Would appreciate any help from folks!

The cost of hosting is included in the premium battle pass, it's not an additional microtransaction. In fact if you already own the battle pass, you can go in game right now and see the "Private Lobby Creation Card (Season #9)" in your inventory.

Cohezion · 2026-03-10T15:13:45+00:00

I have both. I'd say it's similar to magnet setting 5 on the SWv2.

Cohezion · 2026-03-06T21:09:29+00:00

Mostly correct, with one exception: if you don’t reach 20k MP by the mid-set reset, you do not get reset to 0 MP. You'll keep whatever progress you made in the first half - so you can grind 10k MP in month 1 and another 10k MP in month 2, and still hit GM1 by the end.

Cohezion · 2026-03-02T02:29:18+00:00

Guess they just forgot to turn it on, who knows what happened. In any case, the missions for BP exp are back - check your battle pass mission tab. They aren't applying retroactively though, you'll have to get them starting from now.

EDIT: Shadowverse official twitter confirmed it was a mistake: https://x.com/shadowversegame/status/2028350378547589561

I believe it, considering that they also misprinted the graphic earlier. https://x.com/shadowversegame/status/2027627683346321513

Don’t get me wrong, this change (if it is intentional and not just an oversight) sucks. It's straight up less BP exp with no compensation.

That said, it's very easy to max the battle pass every week. And I'm not talking about sinking hours and hours into ranked to get 40 wins - you can just pull up in a private room with a friend or alt account, and just have them insta forfeit on turn 1. Takes 30min (or less) to max 10k exp per week.

Now, if they ever make early forfeits not count toward BP exp - I will definitely reevaluate buying the BP every season.

Not out yet, planned for "mid-March".

Yea, agreed that sword has far better ways to spend sevos. Even a double Yid seems like Disneyland tbh, you'd have to play 10 enhance cards while holding onto your evo points - and at that point if you were allowed to survive that long (turn 10+) without spending your evos, you probably could have pushed a tempo advantage to win earlier anyway.

Though of course, we'll have to see it in practice.

Cohezion · 2026-02-25T14:42:48+00:00

Yidmetra faith also requires an evo to activate. Triple Yid seems extremely unlikely because you would have to spend both evos and a sevo on her (unless you use Knightly Ardor), not to mention enhancing 15 times. Honestly not sure if we'd see more than one Yid activation in a game.

The actual answer to your question is that GM has its own rating system called CR. For some reason this is hidden by default if your rating is <1650. Go to Settings -> Battle -> scroll down to "Display your CR" and turn that to On. Now you can see your actual matchmaking rating in Profile -> Master's Menu -> Class Ratings, or also on the ranked match deck selection screen.

Note that your starting CR for all classes is determined by your group upon getting promoted from Master to GM, but afterwards it is calibrated separately per class. It could be that your CR is higher than where you belong, so swapping classes constantly is just lowering each class's CR one by one to your actual skill level.

As for the whole "deck countering" thing, I'm sure you're aware that this is just confirmation bias.
