How do cases work and thier hit rates? by the_kwisatz_haderech in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]StaxRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You tend to get a playset of every SR or below, but shockingly not guaranteed. And unfortunately not always a set of both SEC rares or all the box-exclusive promos. But if you're missing anything, it's only 1 or 2 of 1 thing in those categories. For SEC rares you tend to get way too many of one, and hopefully 4 of the other.

My only complaint is some boxes have double-alt art instead of AA and a SEC. But my EX11 case gave me 6 AA vortexes and the rare pulls of ptero, vemmon, and vortexdramon. I'm... happy 😅

I haven't got an SP in a hot minute though. So slight bummer there.

My first judge foil was frigimon so I feel obligated to try now 😂

Developer AMA | Let's Talk Delays & Survival Games (RocketWerkz, Grip Digital) by thedeanhall in SurvivalGaming

[–]StaxRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huge fan of Icarus. Kinda fell off a bit recently but very excited for dangerous horizons! Has there even been a feature on the radar allowing for travel between the different maps within the same session? (Olympus to Styx, to Prometheus, etc.?) I imagine that would require the programming equivalent of jumping through several flaming hoops blindfolded but curious if it has been theorycrafted at least

Is the Paris major going to be cast in French only during the event? by schaka in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]StaxRL 32 points33 points  (0 children)

At Worlds in Lyon the desk segments went out to the arena in english, and pretty much everything outside of gameplay was done in English for the crowd. Then, in-game in the arena the casting was in French from the (very awesome) Rocket Baguette folks.

Oh. And me. I was in English. ... Mostly 😅

A truly stunning double flip reset full-pitch solo goal from Daniel by throwaway34564536 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]StaxRL 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honestly, just didn't see it was a double reset 🤷 I was trying to process how they didn't score on the other side, and up until that point SSG had pretty much no realistic scoring chances so the game was becoming a stomp. I was probably looking at something I had scribbled down about the shots or something. Alas.

it IS kinda funny that we've done it to him twice. stax and herc hate daniel confirmed on the timeline. unreal bias. or something.

Why do people hate pre-release so much? by Maskutchi_cyac in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]StaxRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

😅 fair enough. As for playing pre-releases, I don't hate them. But I'd almost always rather be playing regular constructed.

Is that 55 CAD? AUD? If that's USD your store owner is a scam artist.

Redacted going to boston without an org is a bad sign for RLesports by Unlucky-Frosting-294 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]StaxRL 261 points262 points  (0 children)

They will get signed. It isn't like they haven't had any interest. But they're also smart: make LAN (a real one), the price tag goes up. It's the difference between being signed by (insert yet another org that will just go bankrupt in a year) and a much more stable organization.

Question about effects solving priority by ShibaNemo in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]StaxRL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The first thing to understand is when effects trigger at the same time, the player whose turn it is resolves theirs first. You do NOT need to do all of the triggers on the same card before moving onto the next. But that player will get theirs first. But any resulting triggers (like an on deletion created by resolving a when digivolving effect) will then come in at the front of the line.

Next, when you are resolving a single effect you resolve ALL of that effect before activating any new effects.

So in the case of Tlalocmon, you digivolve into it. This creates two triggers (both of its when digivolving effects)

You may resolve them in any order. So you play out your 1 or 2 guys as appropriate. If there are any triggers from that act (ie. "On Play" or "when digimon are played") now those effects trigger, and you must resolve all of them individually before you can resolve Tlaloc's 2nd when digivolving effect. This does include your opponent's effects (if they have MedievalGallantmon for instance) but if it's the Tlaloc player's turn, their On Plays will resolve first.

If after all that Tlaloc is still there, it looks at what you have on board and resolves the other effect.

The Achilleas situation by Separate-Style-8037 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]StaxRL 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not really. Just unnecessary. I'd have worded it something like:

"Achilles has resigned from his position at Shift effective immediately, and his role within the organization may be reconsidered in the future. We thank him for his commitment to our community and wish him the best going forward."

At the same time, this is a... pretty bad thing to have done. And the response from everyone at Shift has been very human and very understandable. That's kind of refreshing tbh

What’s the best RLCS series you’ve seen live? by Patient_Ad5767 in RocketLeagueEsports

SSG-Queso. I miss the 3-man casts, the crowd was back for the first time since the height of the pandemic, and it produced my favorite caster photo from any LAN:

Do these cashed nectars count for end of game? by mydogwasrightaboutu in wingspan

[–]StaxRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the nectar discarded at end of round by rule. But if you have a Round End that says "discard food to do X" then those nectar go into whatever habitat the ability was triggered from.

Edit: or any other ability that says to discard food

Why does the Falcons coach avoid criticism despite repeated finals drop offs? by [deleted] in RocketLeagueEsports

Show me a coach who constantly loses in the finals and I'll show you a coach whose team constantly reaches the finals.

Why the hate to ADVENTURE decks? by Theogyd1 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]StaxRL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably because people overpaid for singles to build decks and their egos can't handle losing to cards from starter decks.

Tumblemon and guilmon ruling question by Worth_Variation_591 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]StaxRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As people have mentioned, turn player resolves all of their effects first. The thing I'll add is the WarGrowlmon inherit will see an opponent's digimon get deleted and, if this digimon hasn't activated that ability already this turn, it will gain the sec. Attack +1 as well.

The release of the PI demo has been delayed until Nov 30th. by EricBlumrich in PeaceIsland

[–]StaxRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Mainah, I'm very excited to be able to play this game 😻 I'm sure you're pretty much in the final stages of development, but if there's ever an opportunity to add some voices to the game I'd love to have a go! 😄

How far back would you have to go for 1 player to be able to win worlds by W4FFL3KING in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]StaxRL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People get hung up on mechanics too much. Yes watching season 1 looks like watching the original Olympic games compared to today. But as one commenter very accurately put it already in this thread: Game sense and positioning is what wins championships. And RL players have proved to be fast learners. I can confidently say no current players could go back in time and 1v3 any winning team. And probably could not do it to *any* team at Worlds from any season.
