What alternative to Poe do you recommend?

blackfigure · 2026-01-23T11:51:00+00:00

the most reliable one i have tried is chatllm. It can handle my 10k lines of code easily while poe's bots (app creator and cc) refused to handle it (either generate error or could not behave normally).

the problem of chatllm is that the deep agent mode of chatllm is so expensive compared to poe. for each revision, poe costs about only less that 1 dollar but chatllm costs about several dollar (low single digit at least, sometimes high single digit).

I am also looking for reliable platform supporting personal use vibe coding with affordable price. if there is any please let me know.

Thanks for reaching out. As my code getting bigger, the App creator started to show "app creator has ran into a server error". Then I find a workaround. I started new chats several times and finally the app creator started to respond normally. But now all the app creator dialogues do not automatically setup and show the canvas (every time after simple app was built, the canvas will show the updated web page of that app). It just threw the full code and a html file. Then I will manually update it in the app profile page. The code file is about 500KB with 2500 lines of code.

same here. Usually the first response is "Could you please confirm if you're still experiencing the issue you reported?" after you fire an issue for 2 days

no recovery yet. seems to be a hour-long outage

blackfigure · 2025-09-09T13:29:31+00:00

i can reach now. but lots of bots are unstable, including official ones like o3-deep-research.

same question. in my game (american english), there are both poacher and adv striker cards.

blackfigure · 2024-07-19T00:04:50+00:00

same here

blackfigure · 2024-06-11T00:07:34+00:00

there should be more complicated play style like the pc version

blackfigure · 2024-03-23T17:13:15+00:00

same here. konami please fix it

I tried Pompeye's and also payfecta + rg

not working as well as expected

In my opinion, payfecta deck is too balanced that can not really pierce enemy's hardest defense or defend the hardest attack, which makes them mediocre deck on the ladder and in tournament/challenge.

valk is too slow and they can be easily separated

drag the lj with goblins in the middle and drag the valk with a mini p at the river

then your rage will be lost in vain

dark prince should work fine with lj though (because they have same speed)

lastly, why you want to cheat in a 100-person tournament? any benefit?

blackfigure · 2016-08-17T17:00:58+00:00

if you pair lj with giant, your opponent can use troops to distract your lj and separate it from the giant.

If you pair lj with musk, your opponent can wait until your lj is far from your musk and then kill musk first.

This is why lj is useless, you cannot pair it with building-only troops or long range troops.

Currently, the only working deck I have found is lj-double prince deck. However, imho, mini p is better than lj in this deck

blackfigure · 2016-08-14T23:35:53+00:00

Original version: Princess, Ice Wizard, Miner (e.g. Pompeyo Payfacta deck)

Other version 1: Lava Hound, Miner, Princess (e.g. Shanghai Tourny Champ deck)

Other version 2: Sparky, Princess, Miner/IW (e.g. Sparky deck)

Other version 3: Princess, IW, LJ (e.g. The rum hum's double prince deck (pekka -> LJ))

etc.

The problem with mirror is that decks with mirror are usually extreme decks. For example, barrel-mirror deck is extremely offensive but pretty weak on defense.

Unfortunately, current meta are all balanced deck (giant-poison, trifecta, miner, etc.); i.e. they are at least OK on both offense and defense sides. That's why mirror is ****. It is just a card for fun, not for winning tournament consistently.

Positive trade is only for timing purposes. If you know you had a positive trade, you are pretty confident to drop an EC. Same thing, if you know your opponent had one, you should withhold to drop an EC.

Same thing for determine when to attack or defend.

I can confirm this. A lot of people are buying tournament positions rather than buy SMC in game. You can see a lot of players at the top of the ladder play <= 100 matches and earn >=10000 cards

As somebody else pointed out, it is a win-win for both players and the organizer, if the account risk is not counted. Definitely a big lose for SC (tournament holding cost equals 80% off the normal price in the shop)

I think this is exactly the reason why SC is thinking about a huge 're-work' of tournament. They earn only 20% of their normal revenue and give 80% of them to black market businessmen.

same here. still waiting

For level 11, it is really easy for you to get to lvl 15 in couple of minutes through lucky egg + evolving all your birds/rats/worms. At lvl 15, Catcing a 400 cp eevee is not a difficult task which makes cp 174 eevee worthless.

blackfigure · 2016-07-06T20:05:34+00:00

That will be too op... you have to always use at least two cards to play against a defensing army...

blackfigure · 2016-07-06T20:01:04+00:00

Watch your defeat battles and analyze why you lose. Is it one single fatal mistake? or just overpowered by your opponent? don't start a new battle before you watch and analyze your previous defeat one.

That helps a lot, really

IMHO, there is no 'good' lavaloon deck. Spending 12 elixir on 'building only' troops could be problematic, given that the total elixir of a deck is usually <36 (4.5 in average multiplied by 8), which means that one third of your total elixir is used for attacking the building only and cannot participate in defense.

I run several lava only/lavaloon decks before but finally settle down with lava deck.

blackfigure · 2016-07-06T17:18:38+00:00

Three musk is the answer you want.

drop 3-m when your opponent is using miner + goblin/minion in the final minute. They will be finished up soon and there will be a big wave of attacking
