Forgot there was an actual topic for this.

I know it's Saturday and it's a dead game but I'm surprised the DBZF top 8 has less than 1000 viewers for Combo Breaker.

Maybe it's not having dedicated Combo Breaker Twitch channels so people don't know it's happening?

Not sure if you saw Ermine but they eliminated the Support role so Reindog is a mage now. Not sure if that means his support moves were removed or not.

I'm sure Freddy will come eventually if this game survives but I would have loved to see them release at the same time. Could even do a big Freddy vs Jason event where you pick a side.

Attack while it's tail's up!

It's gonna counterattack with it's laser

With old Mordo they could just ignore the 6 cost card but now they're basically skipping a draw which I think is probably better.

It's basically saying the next card your opponent draws will cost 6 until turn 6.

So it just doesn't automatically draw the card for your opponent anymore and the cost increase goes away on turn 6.

In my experience Enchantress died with Zabu. One of the most popular decks I see is Tribunal and you still don't see Enchantress very often.

Since the pass gives enough gleamium to unlock the next pass then I'm definitely expecting a long grind.

Especially if the pass is only 8 weeks I'm estimating 40 hours which is a little under an hour a day.

But even if it's a grind I think having enough premium currency to unlock the next battle pass goes a long way with people.

Even in the Sauron deck I usually don't expect them to actually be playing Enchantress.

Shaw on 3
Namor on 4
Namora on 5
Odin on 6

18 power in the Shaw lane
21 power in the Namor lane
14 power in Namora lane

It's not amazing but it's something! I don't know what you do with the early turns

jean grey cosmo deck stocks about to rocket

Kitty destroys that deck though.

One of the leakers said that the current plan is a new character every 2 weeks so that's definitely not sustainable lol.

Just hit infinite with deck

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d09679f7.jpg

Yep, it still works! This is maybe the 3rd or 4th month in a row I've got infinite with this deck.

If you trigger Hope twice on turn 4 it feels like the winrate is 95%.

The new Ultron/Patriot deck was giving me the most trouble so maybe you drop Spiderman for Killmonger if you're seeing it a lot.

I believe the only characters that will actually be new at launch are Joker, Jason, and Banana Guard. Agent Smith is said to be coming later so PPG probably aren't ready yet either.

But characters also came out way too fast in the beta so they do need to slow it down a little I think. In the beta it was a new character every 3 weeks I think which is probably not sustainable.

I mained Superman before but I might main that 2nd new character depending on how they play. Really excited to see them.

The only explanation I can think is that they were testing how fast they can churn out a nothing character or they realized it was going to take basically 0 resources to make them playable (because they were already in the game as Finn's attack I believe)

I expect Mr Meeseeks to be playable eventually with the same logic.

I don't even know what that is from

Unless it's a original challenge like Reindog

It's from Adventure Time, generic nameless character ala Piranha Plant.

The community is not taking this well lol

Wow yeah that is a pretty ridiculous combo I haven't actually seen yet.

Honestly Blink is turning out to be pretty good. Turning 4 drops with low stats and strong on reveals into 6 drops is good.

It's kinda funny how quickly the meta changes in this game sometimes. After getting Leeched 100 times yesterday now everyone is playing High Evo to counter the Leech decks that aren't being played anymore.

So today the ladder is just 100% High Evo decks.

There's also a weird Blink Lockout deck going around. You can play Storm and then Blink next turn will either hit War Machine or Legion which is pretty good.

You know what mitigates leech frustrations? That toxic Jean Grey deck with Cosmo

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/e/e65a00dd.png

5 games in a row Leeched on turn 4 which completely kills my hand.

How do they keep making this card competitive.

I enjoyed both of the Dune movies but I never read the books and this looks like a step too far for me to watch.

It took me 4 keys but I was probably going to go for both variants anyway so I'm fine with it. I'm interested in Sasquatch coming up soon but then really nothing until Hydra Bob.

Does anyone else lose matches by giving their opponent too much credit sometimes? Like last game a guy had a full Prof X lane with Jeff as the 4th card. Then he played War Machine so he could move Jeff and play another card there if he wanted. I also had a Jeff in another lane so if I moved my Jeff over I would have the won the lane by 1 power.

I just assumed he would move Jeff and play a card there because otherwise I could very clearly win the lane. So I didn't bother moving my Jeff over so I might have a better chance of winning the other two lanes.

Instead he dropped Infinaut and Ebony Maw mid into a lane he was already winning that I didn't put any effort into contesting. So I would have won if I moved Jeff... but he had to assume I was going to do that. Why would he stay in the game and lose if he thought I was going to move Jeff over?

He won the game because I didn't move Jeff over. But I refuse to think he was two steps ahead of me. I'm thinking he just forgot he could move Jeff and play a card there, but then why stay in the game if you know I could win that lane so easily?

Yes it's very dumb all around and you lose/win points in Conquest too so Proving Grounds isn't going to be an 8 cube snap and retreat option when this gets released either.

Well you'd still lose cubes if you lost. But you wouldn't lose any League Points for losing a match.

Leagues are being tested in EU and they're very lame.

It's a little tournament style mode with random people in your skill level (I assume). You can spend gold on boosters to get more points or a shield to stop from losing points. So P2W trash to actually win a league basically.

I mean the rewards aren't even really good enough to justify spending money on this mode but I'm starting to see the writing on the wall for this game.

I legit can't remember the last time I played a significant amount of High Evo players. I feel like I get maybe one a week since Red Hulk was released.

For some reason everyone was playing either discard or Electro Sandman today. I think the featured location was the tunnel which makes sense for Electro but IDK.

After about 6 hours I feel like this game isn't going to be able to hold my attention. I know that the beginning is slow but this combat feels pretty bad and I kinda doubt it gets much better.

Everything in this game from menuing to attacking to whatever just feels like it's a half second too slow. Maybe I wouldn't be annoyed if everything didn't feel so sluggish and slow but it's really bugging me.

Also in the first areas after you get your hideout there are these soldiers that are blocking your path. But if you get into a random battle standing near them then the zones overlap or something so you end up fighting enemies that are like 10+ levels higher than you. I won the first one and everyone in my party went up 4-5 levels. So I did a few more and now I have this group that is level 30 and everyone else is level 16-17.

That one is my own fault but I'm sure the next 10 hours would be a complete slog being so overleveled.

Also holy shit that army battle was so slow and boring.

Can anyone confirm/deny if the game gets significantly better or is the first 6 hours a good barometer? I'm playing on Gamepass so I can just go play the Crab Soulslike if this is it.

I regret to inform the other denizens of the topic that I am indeed playing the Jean Grey deck now and it's fucked up.

I bet it still gets delayed from that date

Weird on my end I'm only able to claim up to 1000 so yeah you're definitely bugged.

Pretty sure they do that every month and if you're able to claim stuff it's because you bought the season pass which is 1000 points.

Twitch drops later today

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/c/cfab59f6.jpg

I don't understand why they didn't try to market Hi-Fi Rush instead of shadow dropping it onto Game Pass.

Of course it underperformed, they didn't put any effort into making it a success.

Yep that's literally the exact deck that the guy was playing.

I mean I'm in infinite too (around 29,000 rank) but this was the first I've seen it so far. Everyone near me is still playing Baron decks.

Yeah I think she falls into the Sandman/Leech level of "unhealthy for the game if she's actually popular".

I'm sure there will be a time when she takes over the game and gets completely changed or nerfed.

Just came across someone playing an Ongoing deck in conquest and he had Jean Grey and Cosmo in the same lane every game.

I'm surprised a deck like that isn't more popular because it's so annoying to deal with. Luckily I was playing Discard so I had cheap Swarms to get around it but jeez Jean Grey is really underrated I think.

Yeah just wait for the quest to do G-Bike again. Also the trick to that game is to just break a lot because you can steer way more if you break slightly.

Sony xboner of the day

I'm also 5'10 and just started a similar calorie deficit to lose some weight too. I started at 215 and after a few weeks I'm down to 206.

Also trying to get down to around 160-170 so it's nice to know it's achievable without changing anything but diet. My diet is pretty similar to yours too, lots of chicken.

But I'm going to start hitting up the gym too to speed it up.

That's what I thought but just wanted to confirm. It's kinda crazy the prices that people put up with in these mobile games. Yeah it's all cosmetic and whales gonna whale but $5-10 for a single border on ONE card is pretty insane to me.

Just to confirm since you bought borders, it's per character right?

Got Valentina, Blob, and 1000 tokens in 3

I do like the Knull variant but probably not enough to spend a key. It's a bummer all of his other cool variants so far were spotlights though.

You can transform but these games always count different forms as different characters because they usually have different movesets and specials. And you could start the match as SSJ Goku for example and then power back down to base or whatever.

Here's the full upcoming new cards and spotlights

https://snap.fan/news/end-of-april-patch/

Wow I'm not sure there's a spotlight or variant I really want until Hydra Bob. I think Sage will probably be pretty good so maybe I'll do that week to get the Legion variant too.

for other major characters I get it, but this one is truly insane to me. you see this guy for like two minutes total

Future Gohan is crazy popular though. And this game is adding fodder characters from the tournament of power so it's not like they're limited on roster space.

In fairness I'm pretty sure this is still Mortal Kombat for the vast majority of its playerbase

True but those games have some decent modes beyond the story mode.

I used to play a lot of Tenkaichi back in the day but I can't tell if I'm excited for this game or not.

In 2024 I'm not sure a game like this could hold my attention very long unless they have some replayability beyond the story mode. I mean this isn't exactly a game where you can go online and grind the versus matches so IDK.

In 2024 it's just weird to think of a fighting game that is primarily going to be played single player and then put away.
