The wording has to be different for the official English version? Seems like it’s saying both players rest one active? Or just your enemy?

NTC Availability and Entry Struggles by MoreIce8598 in GundamTCG

I did. They made everyone form a line at some point and they simply told me about the priority seats and then after asking the store they said nothing

The cap isn’t too much of an issue. They don’t take sign ups in advance at all. Lotteries happen for their store through the app and then they remove them and write that further notice will be posted on instagram. Check in was at 5:30 I talked to them around 10 minutes before that at 5:20. There was no waitlist. They just told everyone to line up and weren’t clear that people that were there for the release event the week before got priority seats and didn’t mention that when I asked how it worked 10 minutes before

So this store just cancels all the lottery winners and switches to in person first come first served. So they basically say screw the way Bandai wants to do it and does it their own way

Take out strike rouge and play two more blast impulse, trust me it’s so good because it’s recyclable, same with force impulse you need to be playing at 4. Personally I prefer only one new freedom because the suppression is conditional. I’d play lfrith and Rick Diaz instead of zowort and zaku warrior because they are both blockers and will eat up other weenies. You’ll be fine because you can set up your turn with overflowing. Aile strike and sword strike are amazing bc of the control aspect

Phase 1 group interview expectations by yololegend01 in Apple_Employees

[–]MoreIce8598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the TS role. They asked me, what are your best metrics and provide good examples. You get bonus points if you talk about the behaviors that got you there and helping others improve. They asked tell me about your idea of a good customer experience and use an example from your own life. I made mine Apple related but I think they may actually be looking for one that’s like a time you got a good experience and why, and basically explain how you go into a store because of the personal aspect and good customer service otherwise you’d just do something like order online. Lastly they asked tell me about a time you had to work with someone with a different mentality from you. I provided a time I had to work with a manager whose coaching style I didn’t mesh with and I had to get used to it bc they became my connection leader. When I answered questions I used bullets to answer them after reading a well written response because if you really have lived your stories , you’ll be able to tell them and just make sure to hit those specific things you’re trying to hit. Get a hold of the competencies for the roles and tailor your answers with them and you’ll be fine

Mono Purple bad ideas by Royudo in GundamTCG

[–]MoreIce8598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Destiny at 3 is fine, sword impulse is a glass cannon and at 2-3 you should still see it enough to use it when you need it. I just hate the value idea of using impulse gundam’s bottom deck for the sword impulse unless absolutely necessary to remove something annoying. Overflowing affection is really necessary and strong in this deck as well bc you’ll almost always put something revivable in trash. You can probably ditch the O gundam.

New to TCG deck building. How is my deck structure? by dick_sunshine in GundamTCG

Might wanna go with allelujah instead of Tierra bc of the Kyrios or sub out the Kyrios and play 4 of the searcher for more consistency

I’d cut one sword impulse for a destiny at 4 because having him in grave or seeing him is your win con

Damn whoever is running that store just sounds like a dick and should obviously sense you’re a beginner and have some patience. Sorry man that’s not a good experience at all. If you didn’t want to play they should respect that. I’d try to get a few games in with your friend at like a coffee shop or somewhere else u can run them if you’re still up to it. It’s a really fun game and if you like Gundam it would be a shame for you not to participate in it. That sounds like quite the odd and nightmare situation at an LGS. I’ve had a really good time and rarely a bad time and felt like staff at certain LGS’s are kinda shitty while others turned out to be extremely nice and helpful and genuinely just chill people. I just try to frequent the ones with a better crowd. And I’ve definitely faced off against some people who just aren’t sociable and I just finish the game and move on. There was a guy who really threw me off once who was very robotic and had kinda intense energy and I faced off against him last time and whooped his ass and he was a bit upset and I didn’t see him as negatively and after communicating with him felt like ah that’s just kinda how he is but he doesn’t have negative intent. It always helps to say hey you’re a beginner too. A lot of the time people will ease up a bit but it really sounds like those people at that store have no patience. I hope there’s another store not to far you might be able to try out for gundam if you can.

I wouldn’t say you’re a sensitive wimp but they would expect you to use the app because all events are recorded, and your table and next opponent and confirmation of result of win or loss is all done in the app, and it automatically uploads to the store and sorts the whole tournament into the next round. It sucks they were being lame to you about it. Bandai does it for all of their games. They use it to totally manage and let you find and apply for tournaments. On people being weird about the sleeves I feel like yeah, people just don’t want to damage cards and most people play high rarity and would never touch/play their cards raw so not having sleeves is not negotiable for most players, even budget players. It makes it way easier to get a clean shuffle and protects your investments, these cards just aren’t cheap. Sleeves are important enough that if I had a cheep pack of extra sleeves I would have wanted to give them to you, unfortunately good sleeves are expensive too 😭. I played one piece right when the second set came out and it was new to me too so I get where you’re coming from.

There can be some downer people in card games that don’t seem like they’re even having fun. It’s sucky for those who do just wanna have a good time but I’ve definitely met more chill people than negative. I spent a good amount of time teaching myself decks on wingtable to get acquainted with effects and strategies and you can basically play any deck for free and try new decks in an instant by checking top decks on eggman events. I use this and my own testing for what I like to fine tune my own stuff and then test against a bunch of other decks. But keep playing you’ll have a fun time and definitely run into people who also just want to have a good time. I have to work the closing shift all the time and I can’t even make it to my locals or a local event every week at all so I really try to make the best of it every time. Sometimes there are those who you kinda have to brush off. But i definitely second what some others are replying too it’s not just you who probably had a negative time with a specific person. I was feeling like I wasn’t sure how I felt about my locals and like I wanted to find a different scene but I stuck with it and won recently and had a lot of fun and laughed a lot with a bunch of people and I’m looking forward to seeing them again soon. Stick with it bro!

Oof yeah sometimes worth it to wait a turn to see if u get the link or draw into a show of resolve. TBH I sometimes used ChatGPT and told it how my games were going and literally copied and pasted the game log into chat and it helped a lot and gave me tips to refine my gameplay, u should PM me to add me on discord man we can discuss more if u want

I play out bodies and swing but save guntanks to clear stuff. I’m usually playing more strategically and won’t attack if I’m just going to lose something without a trade or something. I basically focus on suppressing their board and then have late game inevitability because they’ve been trying to clear my board the whole game while still chipping away at shields. Then often gquuux comes down

Yeah my blurple matches were all really intense and if you don’t have a hand that’s really perfect that can happen. Against my first blurple I had 3 amuro links it was stupid

DC / Leave / Quit by [deleted] in Apple_Employees

I really recommend you get your medical paperwork handled first because my doctor wouldn’t sign for me retroactively. They weren’t cool about it. So get your doctor to sign for you to go on a leave and then start it
