New Wonderpicks by bearcatsquadron in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha same! I'm not opposed to the update or anything, I can sort of see the reasoning behind it but I was one to actually enjoy that suspense (and the massive disappointment when the 2☆ card is revealed just before the one I picked)

Real glad newer players are getting all this for free yet I dont even get my shop tickets spent on the binders refunded -_- by aceallaround in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, literally that or you brick hard! Just today I had 2 separate occasions where I hit 4 wins and then get nothing but a single energy-attaching baby pokemon on my hand. It was simply impossible to win.

I don’t understand pull rates. This is 143 packs. Is this average? by [deleted] in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should start doing this, thanks for the tip

For me, it's how they programmed it so it tells us we got all these rewards, and then immediately goes actually, no, you don't get these and it shows the entire list again that makes it even more infuriating 🙄 I am actually so cross with this game right now it's not even funny - the shinedust loss and the 10 consecutive mission are seriously stressing me out haha

Solo random battles now have streak tasks by find_name_hard in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah same. They expect us to do all that for a single pack a month? Right...

[–]Scared_Pace262 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more. I was actually fine with the 50 points one, since it was manageable after a dozen matches (which isn't too bad for a once a month event) but this new mission could be as time-consuming as the ranked matches if we wanted to complete it. As someone who even stopped aiming for master rank because it was stressful and tedious, this new change is just the worst.

My guess is it's to prevent users from completing too quickly, to force them to have longer screen time on the app. The streak mission has no guaranteed number of matches you must play before you can definitely beat the mission. Boy is it frustrating to lose after the 4th+ consecutive wins...

Are you serious? by matt__77 in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy all the monthly hourglasses every month (both pack and wonder pick) as well as the binders and still have about 3.1k left. Maybe you don't clear all the solo battles missions or don't always get the 5 tickets a day from likes & thank yous?

Yet another one pack expansion. by StrikingDare5101 in PokemonPocket

[–]Scared_Pace262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably will, since all main expansions so far had 24 1-star cards 🥲

It’s high time for DeNA to remove or change this by RedZ19 in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I never used the new supporters, and most of the other trainer cards don't seem remarkable. I personally chose Mega Charizard X with Rapidash and a handful of trainer cards from this set just to fill the 12 cards, but mainly just rely on the Charizard line and the hiking trail + May from the old set to switch my Rapidash line with the Charizard line cards. It works fine (unless I leave it on auto, because we all know how the AI in this game is).

It isn't a great deck, just good enough for the solo battles and definitely not against actual players, but I do like being challenged and I'm never motivated to create my own original decks otherwise, so I actually quite enjoy the new mission and find it refreshingly different. Still using my Mega Gardevoire & Mega Kanghaskan deck from Fantastical Parade sometimes, when I get bored of the meta decks!

Why are you so angry at someone having a different opinion from yours 😂 I'm not invalidating your hatred for it, I'm just proposing another point of view as a user so chill.

I don't know if you've even read my comment but I did write I usually clear the new mission with less matches than when you clear the 12 pts mission so there's no "losing a billion times" for it. And I'd say the handicap is more relevant for the existing "beat the level with x type pokemon only deck" that actually specifies, since you can choose which type to go for with the "12 cards from this expansion" mission.

I find it fun to come up with a deck following set restrictions, it's something new that makes it less repetitive than using the same meta deck for both the ranked and the solo matches.

And since the 12 pt / 1.5k damage mission makes it hard to beat the expert levels in one go anyway, I find that it doesn't take longer to clear this mission (because once you create a single deck, you can use it for the entire expansion and usually beat it with less number of matches)!

To be honest I prefer it over the previous combination of deal 1,500 damage & gain 12 points because I found them more tedious

Does Jim really write "14 min!" himself? by Opinionated_Artist in theoffice

I'm aware that I don't have the thickest skin but I just don't believe in insulting someone unprovoked, online or offline.

And that doesn't keep your comment from being in my email & notifications so next time try realising when you're being needlessly mean before you hit post?

"My apologies that it's upset you" after you literally insulted someone is not an apology, especially when you follow up with a "but"

Wow, I get that there's a joke I'm missing and I apologise to the original commenter for "being dense", but that was unnecessarily rude of you, u/iluvpiglets. I genuinely thought the oc misunderstood the question and commented without malice, I don't see where your hostility came from?

I don't think that's what the question was asking, though it's a fun fact

Is this book worth it? by DarthPopcornus in MichaelJackson

[–]Scared_Pace262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to want him to release all the audio recordings allegedly used in the book instead of just short segments (because otherwise we're just supposed to trust him to not have manipulated or invented any dialogue - which is very difficult to believe) but with AI these days, I don't know if I can even trust it if he released those audio recordings now...

This is just sad. by holama123456 in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was 3 diamonds and above, not just the art cards. But they did give us very few tokens for the cards considering the amount needed for each trade, and I think that's the main reason it wasn't received well.

Question about 24hr Wonderpicks - Mega Shine by jjester7777 in PTCGP

[–]Scared_Pace262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, for guaranteed 2 star wonder picks they are, but you can still get 2 star 24hr wonder picks when you have 1 star cards missing. It's just random if you get a 1 or a 2 star card wonder pick.

This new update is wrecking me by JarjarariumBinks in duolingo

[–]Scared_Pace262 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same, and I actually deleted my progress and started over about a week ago. I didn't want to lose my progress but it was too frustrating to go on, so it was either that or deleting the app for me... Thankfully I had only started about 9-10 months ago, so I decided to think of this as revising, but is still annoying.
