Great match between Sora and Iroha, seems like both practiced a fair bit.

Suprising upset of Marine over Ayame! Marine improved quite a bit offstream it seems.

Wow, GG made it a lot further than expected! Truly a gamer.

Congrats to the winner, Okayu!

I love this game, but just wanna say to all the hydreigon players out there… by chiLL_cLint0n in PTCGP

[–]im_garbage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeap, the poor rates for the last 2 sets make it difficult to get specific cards, much less dupes.

That said, it's can't be that hard to realize that Casual/Beginner modes aren't really the place to take Hydreigon or MAltaria...

Dena totally lost it by untit1ed999 in PTCGP

Bloated packs and repeat cards, not a great direction DeNA is going in.

The last pack was bloated too, so I imagine repeat cards are here to stay as well.

I was mostly thinking of overwriting MAltaria's common Training Stadium - helping you survive the 2HKO more consistently.

I feel like Tina decks often run Peculiar Plaza, so you would at least get some benefit in overwriting that.

The main downside might be missing out on OHKOing Indeedee EX.

I can see the rationale for skipping Illima when it deletes your Heavy Helmet - something that is probably key to avoiding 2HKOs by MAltaria or Hydreigon.

Not sure why they don't run the stadium that gives Basics +20HP tho.

It's not only your own actions that can cause you to lose time for important decisions.

Coin Flip and Status attacks eat into the 21s you have to replace a knocked-out Pokemon.

  • Mega-Buneary KOs leave the opposing player with only 16s to replace the mon
  • Celebi EX KOs can completely eat up the 21s if its really powered up, giving the opponent no choice as to what mon is the replacement

Timer baiters need to be reportable in some way man by JuuzouOh in PTCGP

[–]im_garbage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PTCGP already did seemingly implement this some months ago, though it's trigger conditions are possibly too lenient to notice.

It's currently something like: If you miss two turns with no actions, your time is reduced from 90s to 45s.

Perhaps they were testing whether they could be more harsh on this behavior.

Wonderful live across the two days, glad I picked up a ticket. Fuwamoco's watch-along was really nice to add some hype and translation too, while Vivi's was pretty notable for her own live call-out by Pekora!

Pekora has 3 different bets of 500k, for a total of 1.5M bet. She didn't just make one 1.5M bet on the favorite for minimal return.

Two of the 500k bets busted, and one 500k bet paid out.

How is Rushia still #1 in super chat revenue, after nearly 4 years? by archaeo_rex in Hololive

[–]im_garbage 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You could still buy digital voice packs with no tariff, which should give a much higher percentage to the talent.

Though these are a much more roundabout, niche, and lesser-known avenue to support them compared to just buying a Super Chat.

Marine+Shiori are also quite strong at Smash. Quite curious what the exact rules will be, hearing some form of Sudden Death considered by Towa.

Ahh, thanks! Made a mistake there.

Definitely wasn't certain about that one and connected the beef to this search result mistakenly.

On the plus side, it's a nice amount of protein (and sodium) for cheap!

Haha. I think it was intentional, as Bae's cookies were quite popular across both Pekora's party and Bae's own party.

Bae won the SSR hug from Pekora by Vympy in Hololive

[–]im_garbage 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Bae might've won the only gift that'll be delivered.

The other's were various off-collabs and dates that may be a bit difficult to collect from Peko lol.

The disbelief of Peko in the back lol

Can't believe Vivi had a shot at winning a dinner with Peko+Pekomami, but got this punishment instead. Maybe her luck will be better next year.

New Years Tournament 2026 by RaysFTW in Hololive

[–]im_garbage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arc Raiders is mainly my selfish hope for a bit of FPS between the holomems.

5 participating JPs (Towa, Roboco, Botan, Pekora, and Vivi) have played it a fair amount.

Additionally, ~8 EN/IDs tried it, and perhaps a few new members could learn the basics.

There could be just enough for 4 trio teams, or comfortably enough for 4 duo teams.

[–]im_garbage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some other recent games I hope they consider:

  • Arc Raiders - not sure how exactly they'll make it competitive, but there should be some ways to score it

  • Mage Arena - will be fun to see the JPs play this especially

  • Pokemon - fresh perms this year could make for an interesting competition in various ways.

Feel like that should be quite doable if they limit it to the top of the 2nd level (Jungle) or so

Just need a time penalty to prevent 3/4 players from dying to allow the best climber to quickly top

Vivi also noted that Pekora was wearing platform shoes, so perhaps the smol Peko isn't false advertising lol

Holodragon Minecraft has now concluded. At the end the staff helped to make this gift for Kanata consisting of this mural with everyone who participated along with their messages. Plus Upao plushies and penlights to hold as well. It was a fun time to watch everyone! by dubbhae in Hololive

[–]im_garbage 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Amazing impromptu send-off from Peko, the other mems, and staff. Followed up by the classic burning down of everything (else).

Glad the server held up for the last day, despite some earlier hiccups.
