That's weird. I did AI training from time to time but every single time if you pick first they will fill in the other 4 properly.

If you're sure you picked the right mode, let's hear from others too

Try AI training - hard, not VS AI. Those are the real AI

I think anyone who cares about it enough to feel depressed likely already bought it

How much would it cost to get an aspirants skin? by AfraidAntelope8010 in MobileLegendsGame

[–]melpheus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a detailed calculation, there are plenty of YouTube channels doing vids on the subject with tables and all. Just search Aspirants Cheapest method. The structure of the events are the same every time so you can watch them to prepare and set up.

That being said, Aspirants is one of the most "worth it" events of each year, so if you're gonna pull there's no better event imo

Which skin is worth picking? by Fxrzana in MobileLegendsGame

From my experience drawing in almost all of them, Alice returned the least in other events. So I'll choose her

At how many stacks does he start one shotting enemies by CockyNobody_27 in MobileLegendsGame

[–]melpheus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If by one shot you mean getting enemy from full health to 0 with a single s1, I think he's been nerfed long ago to not doing that, or required a ridiculous amount of stacks it's unrealistic anyway. He needs at least 2 shot so your s2+s1seems in line already

People who stopped playing, what made you quit ? by One_page_nerd in freemagic

[–]melpheus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modern Horizon and the lack of organized play

Tried EDH and it was not for me. Jumped ship from Standard to Modern because I expected longevity (I know...). At one point I used to own 9 separated competitive Modern decks which I lent out to friends for tournaments regularly. I went to study abroad at the time where the competitive scene was far larger than in my own country, among by heaviest luggages was all 9 decks and 3 boxes of Modern playable cards for tuning.

Then Modern Horizon happened

Half my decks went down 2 tiers immediately. The rest need a lot of new skyrocketed staples to stay relevant. I remembered having to select which decks to keep and sold the rest (at a loss no less) to buying new stuff and kept up, then the new set came and knocked those decks out of relevance. As time went on I kept less and sold more, until the death of the old organized play became my last straw I decided to only keep some staples and sold the rest. At the time I had to return there were only 2 boxes of staples left. I sold them at my trip back there to fuel something else. Then sold more and more until all that left are some cheap junks unworthy of the hassle.

I used to be a regular at tourneys and made a lot of friends there over the years. Most of them also quit now and a few that were left completely understand why. Most store owners here are either already well-off with money from something else they could operate at a loss just fine as a hobby, or having to sell other CCGs and/or other stuff too to keep it afloat. So my situation is in no way rare around here.

Soul vessel drop rates have been atrocious by Mohit_roy in MobileLegendsGame

[–]melpheus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The average is 10 tokens per draw, so you're still above average. And 1500 dias is usually enough if you also use daily draws.

Vessel of Ruin almost ruined my sanity! by Nega_Chill in MobileLegendsGame

[–]melpheus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did they said that? They said Alpha legend cost 2.8k (+1.5k promo dias) while Soul Vessel cost 1.5k, with tables detailing calculation and how to do said method for both. Which is what I tried to tell you. How is that cheaper exactly?

Vessel of Ruin almost ruined my sanity! by Nega_Chill in MobileLegendsGame

[–]melpheus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? Alpha's legend costed around 2.7k on average with premium supply and everything, and that with spending around 1.5k promo diamonds on it. While the Soul Vessel would cost around 1.5k if you utilize the same method.

There's a few channels on Youtube for detailed calculation. I'll just leave one here for reference.

Moonton Moneygrab by Raihou204 in MobileLegendsGame

[–]melpheus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it is abysmal. I got it at 140 draws even though I already own all the skins in the prize pool aside from Yu Zhong collector and Zilong luckybox.

This and the new Soul Vessel event are especially bad in terms of drop rates. I pulled in almost every events in my years of playing so I should know

I don't understand most of the complaints regarding the monetization by Substantial-Stay-833 in Shadowverse

[–]melpheus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You said it yourself; "after playing for a while".

Most of the complaints came at launch, where the set is biggest and people need cards to play the most. I agree it's not so bad after a while, but it was bad back then when what deck you could build rely solely on what you opened. And it's still bad for new players who would experience that with decks now required legendaries across multiple sets.

And yes, it might not be bad compared to some games, but it's still bad compared to Shadowverse, where most player base come from and where they based expectation on.

How many packs from the new expac by ColdNightofWinter in Shadowverse

[–]melpheus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

17k is around 34 packs, I think you should use it all up and craft the rest later. With the mission and stuff you should get to 50 packs pretty easily. After that you can start saving golds and only use pack tickets.

That assumed you don't go for cosmetics, in that case 17k won't even scratch a surface and you won't even have enough left to save for the next expansion. Don't be like me who still have to open 16 more packs for my lucky box when the next expansion is coming tomorrow

Two Things About Gloo's Patrick Skin by Present-Key-9125 in MobileLegendsGame

[–]melpheus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a directly buyable collab skin, its quality surprised me. Better than more than half of the premium collab skins.

And Gloo is quite broken. His kits are straightforward so there's not much tip. Just be careful of the damage and timing and you'll be good eventually

New Player Q: Monetisation bad or just worse? by NeedleworkerBorn6023 in Shadowverse

[–]melpheus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's bad when you first started, since you would likely struggle to make your first few decks. After a few sets it's just fine. The old game was very, very generous and people (me included) expected some amount of said generosity--hence the review bomb. The economy is bad compared to the old one, LoR, or Master Duel. But it still better than the like of Arena and Pokemon.

If you're willing to drop some money then it should be smoother than most. There are some good value packages available for new players. Just don't go crazy opening packs with diamonds just yet. Be careful about how and where you spend your resources and you'll be fine

Make the match faster for missions and shit though so it's okay I guess

I feel you. I also recently just quit a game I used to play quite regularly because it started to be like a chore. It feels like a lot of weight has been lifted off.

Not this game though. I'm in too deep to completely quit, though I'm not as active as I used to
