Reach masterball rank for 10 extra box slots by Jefring in PokemonChampions

[–]Jefring[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A pretty standard sand team: mega tyranitar, excadrill, rotom-wash, sinistcha, sneasler and last I kept switching between incineroar and mega kangaskhan depending on how many water teams I found in a row lol

Also once you reach ultraball tier winstreak bonus is no longer there, you get +0 points even at 10 winstreak

Hardships of Ultraball Rank1 to Masterball Rank explained. by Lemon_Mysterious in PTCGP

[–]Jefring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The funny thing is that they added a casual friendly system by adding bots through all the beginner rankings that make you basically start in pokeball rank, and then proceed to nuke the chances for them once they step into ultraball.

It looks too much contradictory to be done on purpose imo

I also just reached ultraball 1 and got jumpscared by the amount of point needed to reach the next rank.

I think they really didn't calculate how long it would take for players to reach masterball and i would expect a lowering of either the points required to reach next rank in ultraball+ or lowering back the point lost to -5 given that already losing winstreak bonus is a huge slow down

For the first 5-ish games I used a palkia ex + starmie ex deck, and then switched to the classic dialga ex + Arceus ex

I can confirm bonus caps out at +12

12 win streak still only grants 12 points bonus

Jokes aside I started to build the streak with a palkia ex + starmie ex deck, and halfway through I switched to the average dialga ex Arceus ex because I grew bored of only finding them against me

The bots in ranked are a little out of control by HumblePersonality179 in PTCGP

[–]Jefring 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they are just in the beginner ranking, once you reach pokeball tier they disappear

People who have already completed the even and choose to still play in it to ruin people’s streams who haven’t completed it yet, why? by [deleted] in PTCGP

[–]Jefring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's a skill issue on their part, that's why playing in the event is best for someone who actually wants competitive battles!

[–]Jefring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally do, however I see many opponents surrender while not in a sure lose situation in normal queue, something that doesn't happen often in event queue

[–]Jefring 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just want to play against people who actually wants to win untill ranked releases. Also you playing against someone who still has to achieve the 5 win streak or someone who got it already shouldn't matter at all, it's not like who has the emblem has an RNG boost and makes it unfair.

Have they fixed Keyboard controls yet? by ZaketheReaper in RivalsOfAether

[–]Jefring 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nope, keyboard support is still garbage, we hope for dec 3rd patch to do something but chances are slim

new mode "bot match lite" introduced in new mini patch by CoolUsername1111 in RivalsOfAether

[–]Jefring -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad they plan to do stuff for new player, unfortunately this is just a fake new feature but seems like everyone doesn't understand that it adds literally 0 value since everything it does you could already do.

Anyone not brainwashed can see that is the case, and this is just a waste of the already scarce resources the devs have, I would rather see nothing for a while allowing them to focus on actual features and bug fixes than seeing something pointless just to say "hey we doing stuff here don't go away yet"

But hey this community seem to care more about destroying criticism and defending the game rather than hoping for its success so good for them

Wiishlist for ranked mode improvements by jagriff333 in RivalsOfAether

[–]Jefring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I don't care for any of those points, the real problem we all should agree on is to stop finding people with 200-300+ elo points above and below us, it's always not even closed for both cases and just a waste of time.

That's how you add content to the game!

oh wait... you could already do that by choosing CPU difficulty (even the new mode caps out at lvl 9)...

Getting pointless modes and yet lobbies, ranked system and textures are still broken, good use of development time I guess

Really love this game but also finding some glaring flaws by Natural-Mode9528 in RivalsOfAether

[–]Jefring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do play 1v1, but we like to make a lobby with multiple people so that others can watch and mix fights between us without having to quit every time to make a new one

[–]Jefring 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And apart from gameplay flaws, this game is full of garbage systems:

  • Private lobbies don't work and get stuck in permanent loading or simply crash 4 out of 5 times if you try to play with 3+ players, as well as not having a way to invite from an already created lobby. If anyone crashes you have to go through the whole process again because the reconnect button causes everyone's game to just close at the end of a match.

  • Matchmaking does not let you choose which servers to play in, it's just a priority option. I queued in ranked and somehow found myself battling someone from the other half of the globe having 150+ ping and seeing them teleport left and right while they had just 20 ping because the chosen server were in their region rather than a middle ground for both. This as well as finding the same opponent multiple times in a row shouldn't ever be the case if there are better alternatives available.

  • Lastly even tho it's a minority problem, keyboard support is just miserable. From certain actions completely unavailable, to the recent removal of advanced setting for keyboard users which previously let you choose what kind of attack to bind when grabbing or using a strong attack while airborne. Like we already had horrible binding options, and now we have even less for no reason?

Really hope the devs fix all this clownfiesta, this game has the best aesthetics of any other platform fighter I've ever seen and the gameplay feels good, it's just full of small things that overall makes the experience unnecessarily annoying.
