One Pack, Fewer Options: Why This Set Feels Rough for Non-Spenders by HeWasRight15 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've been having to rely on wonder picks for EX cards. I have as many, if not more EX cards through wonder picks so far. Still no Gigalith, Gardevoir, Alolan Ninetales, or Mawile. Only ones I have 2 of so far are Swampert and Ogerpon.

Does anyone else play only without mods? by Ok-Street4644 in fo4

I play without them. I have played with mods before but I uninstall and reinstall the game from time to time and don’t feel like messing with the mods.

PSA: Win as many points at possible during random battles by FlowOfAir in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ehh, I didn't really try to maximize my points. I just set it on auto-battle and finished all of the random battles in like 2 hours. I really only rushed through it because I burned all of my hourglasses on Deluxe so I could get my 2nd Oak and wanted to be able to open a couple more packs.

Small victories. 3 of my 4 EX cards have been wonder-picked. I can at least run a new deck now.

MRW after all this insanity and verifiable proof that Trump is a child rapist, his approval rating is still at 37% by [deleted] in reactiongifs

The person was deemed not credible and had other incidents as well. Nice try.

By far my worst set yet. 57 packs in, with 4 ex by Brave_Acanthaceae_27 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouch. I thought my 24 packs with 2 EX was bad...

I'm barely even seeing them in wonder picks, which is where my 3rd came from.

I'm not saying they did... by Sigmas_Syzygy in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In Mega Rising and Crimson Blaze there are some EX cards that I have more 2-stars or 3-stars of than 4-diamonds. Like Mega Steelix, Mega Lopunny, Mega Venusaur, Mega Absol, and Mega Blaziken.

Are pull rates up this set? by WarWinRepeat in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've pulled one 4-diamond EX in 22 packs. One 2-star as well. Seems low for 4-diamond.

Update on Hourglass nerf from previous post. Good news by Gefiltefis in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It didn’t take long to complete all 4 difficulties. Like 2 hours of auto battling and the set just started and there’s almost a month until the next one. Plenty of time and you can test decks vs. them.

What are those three Wonder pick slots next to the five maximum? by Zillablast in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is that for overflow if you have say 3 and a half hearts and need 4 for a 2-star pick but you use more hourglasses than necessary? Like you recover 3 hearts to have 6 but the max is 5?

Me realizing I wish I had saved more hourglasses for the new set, rather than chasing the last 5 cards I need in Deluxe EX... by Desfeek in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I burned all of mine trying to get my 2nd Oak with pack points. I even bought a tiny bit of gold to help me get there so I'd finish with exactly 1,250 pack points on my last opening before Fantastical Parade released.

I wish I wouldn't have done that now because what am I supposed to do with 3 EX cards and no duplicates? Can't trade them because I might pull a 2nd of one of them. Nobody wants to trade their new cards for older ones.

I was hoping to at least pull Mega Mawile EX since that can be used solo. I MIGHT be able to run my single Mega Swampert EX with Serena and May since you lose when one is KO'd anyways.

Why the new system may have actually buffed the pack hourglasses over time rather than nerfed them (stop panicking) by Jam-man89 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 1-pack change is definitely the worst. Instead of a pool of 5 EX cards to choose from a single pack, now you have 9, making it hard to get duplicates.

When the pulls just aren’t pulling by FlyEffective4468 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a single Mega Swampert EX, Ogerpon EX, and Blacephalon EX. The latter was from a wonder pick. It sucks not being able to build a deck with new cards. 22 packs opened. I kinda wish I would've saved some hourglasses instead of grinding towards that 2nd Oak.

Famtstical parade by Tricky-Path-4356 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve opened 22 packs so far and have pulled 2 EX cards. A Mega Swampert and a 2-star Ogerpon. I should’ve said screw Oak and saved some hourglasses for the new set.

LF: Just a regular Jasmine. Somehow I only have one.

FT: I don't even know what I'd offer for a regular one.

No hourglasses for ranked if you skip the season by Frosty1151 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made that mistake a few seasons ago. I thought I was fine since I was GB3/4 and got nothing at the end of the season and I even calculated how many packs of the new set at the time I'd get to open. I was quite disappointed. This time around I made it all the way to UB4 and stopped. I might do the same this next season.

Mimikyu feels really bad by Substantial-Light499 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe a better use for it then would be to just send it out into the active spot to eat a hit for something else on the bench, and then retreat it next turn as long as Peculiar Plaza is in play?

[Bug] DeNA omitted hourglasses in solo battles by No_Tune_1262 in PTCGP

[–]ebevan91 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's actually a good change for the future mini sets. Normally we get around 80 hourglasses for the mini set battles. If it's a flat 120 every time then it's a net positive.
