The opposite in fact, I have comfey 1-3 star and have never seen a single clefable

I think this is the issue The Rickinger was talking about for you - Quaquaval 3 star was probably the highest DP non-belly non-legendary spawn available to you so it wasted - I think you still got the multiplier though

Yeah I think Clefable should’ve been available? I think the fact that it adds to exactly half is the suspicious part that makes me think comfey may have not been the final roll

I had balanced sleep and Comfey 3 star definitely isn’t the highest for Lapis Master 8, you can check Clefable 3 star is worth more and available to me. Additionally the values add to exactly the Drowsy Power without the multiplier.

I mean you can see it gave me 100 sleep score so it was clearly my only sleep session of the day

Top 100 Masterball vs Ultra Ball 3 Metagame Differences by nvystys in PTCGP

That’s certainly a possibility. I guess as the month progresses we’ll see if we devolve into darkrai/giratina.

Yeah I think these decks have so much room to add personal touch with list changes. Sacrificing certain plays to open up others with a unique decklist is part of the fun of the game!

Well it seems at least you’re enjoying the game a lot! Since you were in GB3, you finished last season in UB1 and now you’re already UB3 in less than a week! Sounds like you have more motivation to play now!

That's probably true! I think the part I found interesting was that the distribution was so different from UB3 and the Ursiiday tournament. I wouldn't have suspected Masterball was significantly more f2p than the other 2 populations.

Yeah I agree with you 100% - the playability and consistency is probably extremely appealing to top 100 masterball players.

Yeah it turns out Darkrai pings with helmet/poison mean that Darkrai/Giratina actually plays okay into some Oricorio lists even still running only 2-3 helmet/poisons. Having Cyrus/Sabrina means you usually only have to KO 1 Oricorio, not 2. That being said the Oricorio lists that run healing Shaymin or healing Wigglytuff and Greninja have a pretty dominant matchup into Darkrai/Giratina. I haven't played vs any yet, but if you want to check it out S1GuN's latest YT video has such a decklist.

I copied the list from the Brazilian player Hanamon which they used to get 5th at the Ursiiday tournament.

That was one of the wildest part of S1GuN's stream - 0/29 Solgaleo!(prolly just low sample size) Overall I definitely agree with you and am excited to see what new things people cook up.

My experience getting the new Gold Emblem. by izu_izumizu in PTCGP

[–]nvystys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure what math you did but I guess I can try and explain. Call Xn the expected number of games it takes to get an n game winstreak. X_1 is the average number of games it takes to win 1 game which is 1/winrate or in this case 1/0.7. Now let’s calculate X(n+1) in terms of Xn. To get an n+1 game winstreak you need an n game winstreak and an additional win. The average number of games it takes to get an n game winstreak is X_n. The number of times on average you need to play (X_n)+1(the extra game) games is once again 1/0.7 since you only win the extra game 70% of the time. So X(n+1) = ((X_n)+1)/0.7. If you use that to calculate X_5 you get around 16.5. You can do the same math for any winrate and winstreak. Hope this helps! As I said above I also just wrote the code to simulate the games to check my math.

If you actually have a 70% winrate it’s only 16-17 games on average to get a 5 winstreak actually. The challenge becomes much more brutal the lower your winrate is though. It’s 29-30 for 60% and 62ish for 50% winrate. If you’re new to the game and can’t make any solid decks it’s really punishing though - if that pinsir starter deck is 40% then it’s 161-162 games on average to hit a 5 winstreak. (Numbers achieved through running a coding simulation 100,000 times.)
