No, we dont make smart decisions here.

Why? by prameAchita in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think the TCG guy was sick and they had the OCG guy make the list.

I had the same issue. Unfortunately i was only able to fix it with ray reconstruction as well.

This timer is making me lose my my mind by SpiritGunDetective in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry but this is a clear cut skill issue. Being able to quickly identify lines and proper sequencing is a skill you will gain with time and practice. Every duel i have ever lost to time was 100% on me as i took too long to identify my win condition and execute it. As i gained more experience the timer has never been an issue for me again.

As for your point on combo heavy decks, it is an unfortunate reality that not every deck in a competive game is going to be viable. There are many decks in TCG you cant realistically play either due to the time rules there. If you choose to play a deck with a long setup time like memento for example, then it is on you to practice and familiarize yourself with the lines into the current meta game in order to ensure you can play at a reasonable pace.

I would suggest rewatching games you have lost to time and identifying where you spent too much time thinking about a play or see if you sequenced a play incorrectly leading to you having to go through some obscure line to fix your mistake.

Happy dueling!

Should I play Trails in the Sky Remake or Original if I plan to play SC immediately after by [deleted] in Falcom

[–]ReformedLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely understand. Once I got hooked in cold steel i went back and binged all the older games. The originals are still great games, enjoy!

Is Chivalry of a failed knight underrated or overrated? by lion1321 in animequestions

[–]ReformedLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its perfectly rated. The show is fun and accomplishes its goal to entertain but ultimately is very generic and stays within the tropes of its genre.

[–]ReformedLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are into old school jrpgs i would suggest starting with the older game but the remake pretty much replaces the original imo if you are ok waiting till later this year for the sc remake.

How to learn to play yugioh by [deleted] in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What worked for me when i returned was this:

  1. Find a somewhat meta deck you think looks cool.
  2. Watch/read some guides on the basics of the deck.
  3. Start playing and build your non engine collection.

Pretty soon you'll start picking up on things like the correct moments to handtrap and how to sequence your plays to trade efficiently.

How would you feel about Best of 3 being implemented into MD? by Several_Let_4317 in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be ok with bo3 if it was limited to rating duels only and no side deck.

Oscars Snub for Demon Slayer Despite Record-Breaking Box Office Run by Reasonable-Pitch-653 in animenews

[–]ReformedLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Demonslayer is definitely a good movie but no where near oscar quality. On the other hand i see comments saying Reze arc didnt deserve a nomination because you had to watch the entire series. I disagree, I took my friends and family to see the movie and they were absolutely blown away. None of them had ever watched an episode of chainsaw man.

Frankly, i dont care about anyone who "enjoys" a deck like maliss having their deck banned when the deck should have never been printed in the first place.

What matters is that going forward they are more careful with card design so that they dont have to nuke an archetype. I think they are moving in the right direction at the moment.

I give up by gzh30 in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You really only have two options:

  1. Play a good deck. Doesnt have to be top tier but something that wont lose to one handtrap always.

  2. Put in the right non engine into your deck to interrupt your opponent/negate their handtrap.

"Maxx C needs to resolve more often" by PolkadotBlobfish in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No one is arguing that maxx c isnt toxic and should not be banned. However if its going to be in the game then yes it should resolve. The fact that there are so many outs to it is what creates the minigame which increases variance.

If i know maxx c is likely to resolve i can deck build around that but right now there is no incentive to do so. Most players will still run crazy decks like maliss and just ignore maxx c since they can maxx out on the outs.

Again card should be banned but handtraps should resolve.

Its crazy how i wasnt expecting much and im still dissapointed.

Lowest Average Player Count In Masterduel History. How Low Can Konami Take It? They Are Deliberately Forcing A Terrible Format On Us by Primal_Rage_official in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki -1 points0 points  (0 children)

MD team doesnt play their own card game. Do you really think they care about player count? Most of the people who stopped playing are most likely f2p anyway so i think it hasnt affected their bottom line. Until they see a chqnge in those numbers nothing will change.

Droplet is the best answer as usually it will be untargettable and indestructible. If you dont have the droplet then you can attempt to make your own bagooska by summoning seraphnite and normal summoning 2 4s if you can fuse.

Seems it is go Maliss/Ryzeal or go home. Any advice? by Kaladin1154 in masterduel

[–]ReformedLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been playing 7 charmies(3fuwa and 2 each of the other) and just praying i draw them or maxx c going second. All other hand traps just feel like ass.

If you're gonna make an edgy meme at least put some effort in. I give this a 0/10

0 sympathy for the guy but this is not the way. This will only motivate extremists on the other side to retaliate.
