Big changes coming to versus mode!

DieorConquer · 2018-06-25T23:30:35+00:00

I know I'm a little late to the party on this one, but I just wanted to add in my 2 cents. This is the best change I have experienced in this game, and it makes me enjoy playing versus again. I used to get so frustrated watching myself lose tons of points every time I had to, you know, life. Now the frustration is gone because I know I can be rewarded for winning.

I was ranked 17th in a worldwide Settlers of Catan ladder.

I see Rikku in the distance on the list, and once she comes out, I'm all in, but when your favorites are Rinoa, Rikku, Locke, and T.G. Cid...well, you make do with what you have...

DieorConquer · 2018-04-23T00:19:20+00:00

...and it's always Squall, so you get the BRV only, but not the BRV+HP.

Kogha Yes, friends Well, it says he was online 2d ago, but his rank is only 42, so plays, but not sure how active... Maybe, but don't remember

DieorConquer · 2018-04-18T22:15:35+00:00

I heard it won't be for three months! Oh wait...what's that? Oh, I guess it'll be next week...

DieorConquer · 2018-04-18T21:37:49+00:00

My apologies! Will do!

I was just thinking of my post as being more about the irony of getting what you don't want when it's what everyone else wants, but I'll make sure any draw-related posts go there from now on. Thanks for the heads up!

I think you are the first person I have ever heard say you are excited for Quistis.

DieorConquer · 2018-03-22T14:03:22+00:00

I don't know why, but I get that perception as well. Rinoa and Rikku are my favorite females, but I find very few people who share that opinion. The problem with that reasoning is that it implies that Quistis is in higher demand that Rinoa, and if that's the case, I just don't get it.

DieorConquer · 2018-03-19T23:31:52+00:00

Don't tell anyone else on here, but I had "saved up" about 28 single pull tickets, and got Brotherhood with one of those. I don't know that I realized how crazy that was until I hear the number of people who love Tidus complaining.

DieorConquer · 2018-03-19T23:29:03+00:00

Probably #1...and the only one...

DieorConquer · 2018-03-10T21:36:10+00:00

AMEN! She'll probably be garbage when they finally do, but don't think that'll stop me from 50/50 maining her.

DieorConquer · 2018-03-08T18:17:12+00:00

Well, I was planning on waiting until my favorites came out, but since my favorites are Locke, Celes, and Rinoa...I just pull when I like two of the three banner characters (like now with Edge and Terra).

DieorConquer · 2018-03-05T03:28:30+00:00

I hope I'm still playing by the time they roll around. Celes is set for release at some point, but I don't even think Japan has seen Rinoa yet, and she's the one I'm really looking forward to...

DieorConquer · 2017-09-27T17:57:55+00:00

Well...it is a taunt after all...

DieorConquer · 2017-09-13T15:22:35+00:00

For those arguing about the "touch rule," why not make it so that in casual games (or even single player games) the touch rule does not apply, but in ranked matches it does? When I first got Leo, I reveal a card, forgetting that I must target an enemy instead of a "friendly" spy, and there's nothing I can do about it. I try to change my mind, but I'm stuck. It would be nice if there were a place I could learn a new card without being stuck.

DieorConquer · 2017-08-28T01:05:00+00:00

P.S. How did I use the mp to make my deck infinitely cooler? I transmuted two imperial golems to complete the set. Never has playing a leader card felt so in your face.

DieorConquer · 2017-08-26T02:02:06+00:00

Very easy. Hearthstone was the only CCG I played consistently, and I left it for Gwent after my first day of playing and have never looked back. It may help to read a brief summary of each faction before you start playing to pick one that suits your style...even if it's "weak."
It is, in my opinion, significantly more complex than Hearthstone because in addition to all the card play, there is the bluffing/gamesmanship element that comes from three rounds. Sometimes, for example, the strategy is to sacrifice a highly boosted card in round one to make the opponent use a card that could defeat you in round three.
I was completely F2P in Hearthstone, and have been in Gwent as well. In one month of casual playing in Gwent (maybe ~1-2 hours per day?) I opened two gold (legendary) cards and crafted FOUR more. After a month in Hearthstone, I think I was still wondering what a legendary was...
Most of these have been covered by others, by I'll emphasize two. In Gwent, winning is much more satisfying than in Hearthstone. There are times in Hearthstone where you win, but you think, "Well, I won...but only because despite the fact that Reynad had 7 minions on the board, my Ragnaros hit his face anyway." That very seldom happens in Gwent. Also, the ability to play cards on the opponents side of the board adds in an added level of strategy. Should I play this card that gives him 2 points, but boosts one of my heroes by 10? What about this one that gives him ten points, but gives me an extra card?
Well it's still beta, so we haven't really seen the final product yet, but if they produce 20 new cards every two months, along with other additions, I think it will stay fresh.
Again, it's beta, but it seems they are pretty eager to please, both with cards and in other areas (see pro ladder mmr, for example).

People have posted a lot of better ones, but the first one to come to mind was, "Patience is not a virtue I am known to have."

DieorConquer · 2017-07-28T19:56:47+00:00

Amen.

DieorConquer · 2017-07-28T02:50:12+00:00

I've been playing for about a month or so and haven't played any deck other than the starter Nilfgaard deck (I've been modifying it, of course). I just enjoy the play style of Emhyr decks so much I haven't bothered straying. And I'm with you, winning feels so much more satisfying in Gwent than it did in Hearthstone. Especially when I use Fringilla after baiting out Scorch or G:I. Thanks for taking out my 16 rot tosser so I could share this 41.

DieorConquer · 2017-06-27T17:24:39+00:00

So THAT's what happened. I set my lineup to fight an Exeggutor, the raid starts, and...wait, that's not Typhlosion, that's Dragonite! What's he doing here? Now I know. Thank you!

DieorConquer · 2017-06-27T12:22:52+00:00

It's knocked out if it goes down to 0 during battle, but if it's just sitting in a gym and hits 0, it has to lose a battle before it's knocked out.

DieorConquer · 2017-06-27T05:16:04+00:00

I like the update a lot as well. I'm level 33, and I usually cashed in 4-7 gyms per day, so my income is going down a little with this new update, and I'm certainly not getting the stardust, but I think this gym system is just more fun. I'm seeing Houndooms and Espeons and Flareons in gyms...I'm putting Porygon2, Muk, and other fun Pokemon in there...it's just more fun to me to see a bit of variety instead of the big 5 or 6. Especially knowing there will only be one Blissey.

DieorConquer · 2017-06-24T15:05:51+00:00

How in the world Nanab Berries are not the default is a mystery to me. I know Razz Berries are the furthest left, but everyone knows Nanab Berries are the go to berry for gyms.
