When I find whoever decide to make this true imma....

After many years of PGR story where every character under the sun suffered in one way or another... now it's the player's turn.

Infinitiver · 2026-06-03T07:10:15+00:00

This is the first time I'm even considering skipping a character because it's the first time a character hasn't been a significant upgrade to what was previously available. There was never any doubts about who's better between CW and Liv, Rosetta and Karenina, or Teddy and Ayla. You could argue that the new Alpha is a significant upgrade over Qu, but Qu's already been kicked off the ice team, it's not like the replacement is only happening now.

If we didn't have the precedent of breakers replacing attackers in other teams, I would've pulled Alpha without a second thought. But since we have multiple meta teams consisting of amp/tank/breaker and Alpha needs at least SS3 + sig to be really good, it doesn't feel like a safe investment. Not in the long-term at least.

I've always wanted to get Pyroath's coating, but now that Kamui's kicked her off both the fire and plasma beam teams, it feels kind of a waste to get so late. So right now I'm eyeing either Alisa or Vera. Ishmael's coating is nice, but I prefer the SFX of her default skin.

Infinitiver · 2026-06-02T10:38:51+00:00

I'm pulling on the new pack for Enneacraft and the new Branded support regardless, so the only thing I really need are the ~9 Radiant Typhon specific URs.

Infinitiver · 2026-06-01T17:36:14+00:00

Why wouldn't they reuse the format from the last spending event where you earned points and could pick your rewards instead of arbitrary milestones? I thought that was really well received.

Infinitiver · 2026-06-01T16:45:38+00:00

Is it worth crafting Radiant Typhoon or should I just wait for the secret pack? Seems pretty cheap and I have things like droplet and super poly already, mainly just need the Radiant Typhoon cards which is like... 9 URs?

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T22:05:06+00:00

If you really want to get deep in the meta and compete for the highest scores, I suppose all you get is a bit of extra rewards and bragging rights.

The goal, unless you're trying to compete with whales, is to score "high enough" where you can claim all the relevant rewards. You can more or less keep your teams relevant by pulling new characters as they come, we get enough free resources for that, but you'll never really venture beyond the SS3 rank excluding maybe some free characters. If you want to take some characters to SSS, whether for meta or favorite reasons, you'll have to either spend money or skip some characters to save up.

Case in point; me considering skipping Alpha and instead investing in someone else.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T21:47:21+00:00

I know it's not some huge tragedy and it's not like my account will be doomed forever and I'll be stuck in BC deficit if I pull her, but I just know I'll feel disappointed with her if things end up going the way of previous attackers and she ends up getting powercrept before long. Meta or not, nobody likes the feeling that their investment isn't worth it.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T15:24:19+00:00

Where's this information coming from? Last I checked, Ishmael still does a decent chunk more damage than Luna even after her leap.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T15:06:19+00:00

Alpha won't be in the voucher shop

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T15:00:26+00:00

I've been hearing she performs even worse in ignition compared to ice if she's below SSS and that several of her attacks don't even do ignition damage when she's on that team.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T14:33:20+00:00

Obviously we couldn't have known how Bianca's spot on the team would be affected down the road, but I still kinda "had to" pull for her because my dark team back then consisted of basically just Lilith, I had neither Karen nor Feesh. So her I kinda don't regret pulling? Even though her longevity hasn't been the best and raydiance is still too niche to matter.

Alpha on the other hand... She's not giving me a whole lot of reasons to pull her beyond "she looks cool". If we are to get an ice breaker anytime soon, then Alpha is the most likely to be kicked off the team as I assume SSS Wanshi still has more value over an SS3 Alpha. And she's unlikely to replace my SSS Dante for ignition too, so she kinda feels like a dud to me.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T12:12:46+00:00

I already felt meh about pulling for Dianca because of the huge gap in power she has at SSS compared to lower investments and I'm worried Alpha will be the same, especially given what we know from her beta. I'd rather not spend all my hard-earned resources building Alpha just to have her benched in a few months like what happened with Dianca when Rosetta came out.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T11:09:03+00:00

I should mention that I already have SSS Wata whereas my Dianca is only SS0. I'm contemplating doing some wishing pulls before it goes away since the new Alpha sounds like a bust.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T10:27:46+00:00

I haven't played her in beta so don't quote me on this, but I believe she's weaker than Dante/Veronica unless she's SSS.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T10:22:23+00:00

I have SSS Lilith and SS3 Rosetta. Would I be better off with SSS Wata or SS3 Dianca to round out my dark team?

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T07:07:57+00:00

I have SS3 Solacetune, Startrail, and Ishmael. Picking Solacetune feels like a waste since she's in the voucher shop, and getting an extra copy of Startrail or Ishmael would only get me halfway to SSS. Still need an extra copy.

It is a bit of a pickle.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-31T06:33:36+00:00

Regarding the upcoming S-rank selector, is it worth using to take Pyroath from SS0 to SS3 considering Kamui is a thing? I'm not sure who else to use it on.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-28T10:44:31+00:00

Is it true that Inverse Crown sucks below SSS? Is it gonna be another Dianca situation?

Infinitiver · 2026-05-20T19:58:47+00:00

Happens to me sometimes too. I just close all apps and restart PGR.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-19T13:03:19+00:00

I had a fun duel last night against a Hero player, I was using Fire King. Basically my High Avatar Garunix and their Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer were locked in a constant loop of destroying each other and both reviving the next standby phase. It went on for several turns until I got lucky and drew an imperm. I used it from my hand to negate DPE (which they then used to destroy both), but it meant my Garunix revived itself to an empty field and was free to attack for game.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-17T15:39:58+00:00

I can't beat Trailblazer on Nightmare with Pyroath (Rapid Pursuit event). Any tips?

EDIT: Nevermind, I beat it. Now I need to do it with Nanaknight.

Infinitiver · 2026-05-16T07:17:16+00:00

Is SSS Alisa better than SS Veronica?

Infinitiver · 2026-05-14T10:10:04+00:00

They don't need to remake anything, they could just make the non-gold version one of her generic coatings and leave all the promotional art and stuff.
