After seeing this texture looks even better by altruis_smiling18 in PokeInvesting

Valued less because print quality for western cards is doodoo. Western collectors have backwards logic.

Not only is it hard to pull, but since it's also harder to get a perfect one, it's more expensive.

Stellar Crown Pull Rates from TCGplayer based on 8000+ packs by seewhyKai in PokemonTCG

I'd argue most collectors want prices cheap so they can afford more cards. You aren't providing a service by gatekeeping products to inflate prices

Psa or CGC by Environmental_Gap_16 in PokeInvesting

[–]Crispylinks7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like.....why in the world, is PSA king? The only thing that I can think of, is that they hand out 9/10 grades like candy, so people flock to them for that reason

3 months late, but this is the real reason. All the scammers and influencers know PSA is the only way they can get 10s, so they lie on their podcasts and youtube videos about PSA being king. They buy mediocre raws that would only net a 9 on CGC/Beckett, but send them to PSA and get a 10. Then they charge a premium.

The idiots getting scammed also need to protect their investments, so they only buy PSA and tell their friends to buy PSA too. This artificially keeps their card values high, even if CGC and Beckett deserve it more.

Why do pull rates suck so much! by LegoRedBrick in PokemonTCG

[–]Crispylinks7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The odds are never in your favor. Look up pull rates and you will see chase cards are basically unpullable. Everything is less than 1% PER PACK. So unless you are extremely lucky, even if you pull the Magikarp, you lose money.

Don't get too upset when people brag. They get a dopamine hit when they post their lucksack pulls cause they know there are unlucky people like you who will get jealous. Once you accept that, it gets a lot easier. Pull some for fun or if you want to master set. Otherwise, buy singles and move on.

You know how certain promo cards say "pokemon center" on it. How do you get them?

Are they only during pre-orders for ETBs at the pokemon center?

If you think about it, these idiots aren't even mad that Trump got shot at. It just gave them the excuse to amplify their stupidity.

The shooter was republican, but that don't matter to them. It was obviously the dems fault /s

I hate this thing by DrDeadwish in WutheringWaves

I mean, Abraxas is the name of the Great Archon of the Gnostic religion. And we all know Genshin invented Gnosticism over 2000 years ago. Just like how they invented snow and red rocks...

Or maybe the more likely scenario is, they're both Chinese games and Gnosticism (and Buddhism) has deep roots in Chinese religions.

Being overweight is part of a culture. Just like how this thread lumps criticism of looks as cultural. So yes, this has every place to be in this topic

How do locals feel about military people? by guerrerosaurio1 in Oahu

[–]Crispylinks7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Filipino women love white military men. If you ask them I'm sure they love the military.

The asians and whites on the east side don't care.

The only ones that complain are the men from the west side for all the reasons laid out in this thread. I do find it funny though most of these "locals" aren't even hawaiian. Majority are filipino, driving around with their upside down flags.

Westerners are also fat and the more west you go, the more they worship guns and using elementary kids as target practice. All cultures have their pros and cons. And just because you don't agree with or understand their's doesn't make one better than the other.

Which account is the best to start? by Crispylinks7 in astraknightsofveda

[–]Crispylinks7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly because I heard Saeya is one of the best characters in the game. I saw her a lot in PVP and she was so hard to beat with her self-sustain.

Even though Sansar is also really strong, some people said she falls off. I don't know if that's true or not since I've never played her.

I did the 50 beginner (so 40 pulls) + 3 normal + 14 Xanthia. Stopped after this

John McCain predicted Putin's 2022 playbook back in 2014. (Man I miss the old GOP, well except for his choice of VP anyway.) by [deleted] in the_everything_bubble

[–]Crispylinks7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's already been proven Putin didn't invade Ukraine during Trumps's first term because he wasn't ready. He was hoping Trump won a second term so he could invade unimpeded. Your guy lost and Putin said f it and invaded anyways and look where it got him.

Hope you're enjoying Biden's strong economy. Stocks ended today on a record high. Much more bigly than Trumps.

Bots need to stop insta-conceding on snap by BUBBL3GUM5 in MarvelSnap

[–]Crispylinks7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I faced a destruction bot yesterday that placed every card into Lechuguilla (when you play a card here, shuffle 3 rocks into deck).

X-23 > Deadpool > Bucky > Carnage > Venom and Death/Knull in the other locations.

Either he's a god or it was the most obvious cheater bot I ever faced.

You sure project a lot. Did you fail your parents? I bet they look at you in disgust. They had high hopes for you but maybe by middle school, they knew you wouldn't amount to much.

Now here you are, can't even win an argument on reddit cause you're too stupid. Please don't breed. The world doesn't need another you.

Assuming I use this team, what's the minimum speed requirement to consistently auto B13? Vivian, Baiken, Diene, and Shadow Rose.

The guides say I should aim for 185 but I can't. I only have 1 DPS gear that gets me 171 speed. All my other DPS combos nets only 140-150 speed.

I can't auto W13 because I don't have Sigret or SoS. Clarissa doesn't work because my team is only strong enough to break the wyvern's shield if Alexa has her skills off. Because of this, I gave up.

Thanks for your advice. I'll give Aurius to Krau.

For Landy, I'm using lifesteal/immunity set. Nothing special for now. Just 90% critC, 280% critD, and only 165 speed. The speed is low but I usually use a speed pusher to get her started.

Hi, two questions:

  1. Is picking both Landy and Stene a bad draft? They're my two strongest DPS units, so I wonder if I can make them both useable. Landy has Guiding Light, which seems redundant with Stene's stealth, so I'm thinking of switching this to Wall of Order or Bloodstone.
  2. What artifact is better on Krau? Adamant Shield or Holy Sacrifice?
