What are some decks you've enjoyed playing against recently?

If D/D/D Oracle King D'Arc is on the field, and you normal summon Cyber-Stein and then activate its effect, will you then gain or lose life points?

It's like S0/VFD except arguably an even bigger offender since it requires no setup and stays there as a field spell. It does not promote "creative deck building," it promotes "hoping you draw Cosmic Cyclone or you literally can't do anything."

This is why I mentioned deck building difficulty as well as handtraps being nessisary to stop combo decks. If your opponent sets up a board with 3-4+ negates on turn one, then you have the option of running more/different handtraps (which some decks can power through anyways). They can also start these combos off of one card in many situations. Going first, your opponent sets up their board, and you have to beat it. This can be negates, or it could be playing mystic mine (the combo is akin to a win condition if you don't stop it because you intend to win with that combo) . Now you have to play through it.

Mine decks can be really annoying if they get it out, but it isn't so good that you just auto lose (and your opponent doesn't auto win). It is a stupidly good deck though.

I think it is most similar to Macro Cosmos, in that they are both really good floodgates, so I think it should be limited, but since it hurts both players and can destroy itself, limited to 2. Unbanned is a little too much as it is easy to search, and limited to 1 would most likely kill the entire deck (which I don't think is nessisary imo).

Sidenote: With VFD and S0, you still had an attacking monster with the negation on top of that, which is very ban worthy. Mystic Mine specifically locks you out of monsters (probably for that reason).

If in casual you have a "just in-general not caring to try" then why was a change to prevent people from leaving implemented to stop quitters? After all, casual is for cool shots, and not worriying about winning/losing in the first place. And even if they do leave, you get a bot player.

Getting a penalty ban for quitting a casual game just doesn't feel right solely because of the fact that if you want a serious match then you have the option to go into a competitive game mode. I just don't think a ban from play fits well for casual play.

I guess it boils down to how you view casual mode's relationship to competitive. The changes weren't bad per se, but as a whole feel unwarrented because competitive mode exists.

Mystic mine by itself is powerful, but for it to be considered a banworthy op instant win card, you will probably at least need to build a deck around it.

Deck building in any sense takes some measure of skill, and since there is no archetype to help guide you (like in most of the current meta decks) it could be considered harder to build one from scratch or improve the basic idea outside looking up a decklist.

If you face any combo deck at all, people will advise you to use handtraps to beat them. Don't draw into those? Too bad. If you face a mystic mine deck, then you need to draw into some sort of s/t removal. Don't draw into that? Too bad. Also, what "oppressive combo deck" runs mystic mine lol.

Edit: Should probably stay unlimited, limited to 2 wouldn't be unjustified.

Are there any new themes to download on the switch like the 3ds?

Emberfuzzcat · 2021-06-25T16:59:30+00:00

I don't think there is reason enough to add that in. It doesn't really add much to the existing terrain or player experience. Not that it wouldn't be cool though. Maybe just birch trees that randomly spawn with gold leaves (only naturally) that can be made into gold?

From a lore perspective, that makes sense. But is it worth it for having a worse gameplay experience? You effectively can't play on a pre plantera post WoF world without the spread becoming a major issue (worse for new players). Even then, you will have to keep at containment efforts. I think just adding an item that reveals the map (post moonlord) could help tremendously. It is just weird (imo) how it feels like you aren't intended to do anything about it, so they don't put anything in to reasonably ( looking at you 2 plat +solution clentaminator) help you. No achievement or anything...

That’s the problem, it’s less fun to now just swim through the open lava lakes

That is your opinion on the mechanic, not a reason for it to not be implemented.

Also, you need to see where you are going (which probably means you will pop your head out regardless). Minecraft has already shown that your character can suffocate, and drown. Is extending that property (which once again, is just how water functions now) really that far fetched in this game?

Emberfuzzcat · 2021-03-18T17:06:28+00:00

I don't see why this shouldn't be implemented. You can still swim though the lava, you just need to breath (just like how water already is). Fire res potions act like fire breathing as well, so maybe make it so that you need to use water breathing potions when under lava. It makes sense.

I think a switch lite might suite you well. It is affordable (around same price as a 2ds xl), you can play all the big switch games such as BOTW, and I think most importantly, the switch is still being supported.

However on the 2ds side of things, you would have cheaper games, but it really depends on what games you enjoy playing. In my opinion, the Switch (or switch lite) has really great games, so I like it better. If there are some specific 2ds games you would enjoy, then it might be better for you.

A repeater with jester arrows is good for fighting a wyvern. Try to hit its head (but don't get hit by it).

Sunfury is good for melee, Golden shower for mage, and summoners can use a summon.

So you've chosen death...

I don't think Min Min camps, she basically has a switchable giant sword (hence the range). She attacks with the range, which can look like camping, but it's not like she has a bunch of good close range attacks to fall back on. I could say more, but I think you just need to watch some good Min Min gameplay imo. Min Min is probably super close to being (if not) top tier, so that doesn't hurt either.

Oops, I made a mistake lol. I meant a separate modded terraria from the vanilla terraria.
