I just cleared 3000, and I started the day after the app began...

oh, I see that people are paying for the premium pass to get significantly higher card counts. I feel better now about my lower count lol
Same here. I think my 3000th card was obtained yesterday?

My 3550 is as a Day 1 player and with the free trial period. I can't remember if it got me for a month after the trial or not, it may have.

I'm at 3650 with only the free trial period, so it adds up. I'm not sure how I have so many when other day 1 players are just hitting 3000 though

I'm at 4,696. I've been playing since night one of the soft launch and been Premium since global launch. I'm not quite sure how Quinton has so much more than me! Even if I spent all my 1000 packglasses, I'd only be just over 5,000.

Yeah that makes sense as I haven't cleared all the solo battles and also got lazy with some of the solo battle events (for the 1 card per clear) and PVP events that gave out hourglasses. So we would likely be level if I had kept on top of things.

Yeah, I don't do the PvP events except maybe play a battle or two. With the non-event solo battles, I have barely scratched the surface there. I would guess that I am somewhere between 10-25% complete. I don't think that they offer cards directly though, so that probably doesn't matter.

Are you sat on a lot of hourglasses? I'm always at 0.

The solo battles offer a significant chunk of hourglasses (plus exp)

I also burned all my free gold from leveling up on packs

Oh yeah, I've done all the single player and multi-player events and don't horde my hourglasses, so that probably helps

and speaking of hourglasses just used some to Wonder Pick Pawmot and now I have finished all the diamonds for Shining Revelry!

I'm at just over 4,000 cards. I've been using the premium subscription every other month, to get all the promo cards and mission rewards and I have spent a little on gold, but that was mostly to buy the Red cosmetics that came out recently, though I spent the excess on packs.

unless i'm doing the math wrong, at this point the difference between a subscriber and f2p player of equal dedication should be around 1000 cards. working from an initial lower bound of

180 packs from stamina (900 cards)
6 packs from hourglass mission rewards (30 cards)
5 promo cards from missions (mewtwo,moltres ex,piplup, darkrai ex,sprigatito)
6 wonder stamina from mission rewards (realistically 2 to 3 cards)
maybe 5 packs from additional levels due to opening more packs (25 cards)

i'm sure i'm missing something, but it was interesting thinking about it

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

Hit Ultra ball, and honestly with a week left, I really think Master is doable.

I'm just not sure if 5 more hour glasses and the emblem are worthwhile.

Ultra Ball is like halfway to Master though, the climb increases by a lot.

I'm at Ultra Ball. I don't know if I'll bother aiming for Master Ball. I agree that the uptick in rewards isn't really worth the effort, although honestly, I'm not sure any of this would be "worth the effort" for folks who aren't much into battling.

Thankfully, I am, so it's been a fun enough ride.

I almost bricked so hard that I nearly lost to a... Charizard/Giratina deck... with added water energy for Irida heals. Thankfully I drew the one card I needed at the right moment and flipped a couple heads. Losing that would've been so embarrassing.

The water energy specifically prevented them from winning on turn 4. All I had out was a lowly Exeggcute, and it should've been a done deal when they evolved to Charmeleon, but oops no second fire energy.

Well I went to start fighting in U2 and I'm 5-0 so far, maybe I'll push for another tier

Also, these guys at the higher levels do not thank after a battle, poor etiquette

Went 12 days without seeing a new card but was able to get Lucario EX from WP this morning and then grab Bibarel EX with the free deck thing to get to 72/72 on SR.

Now gotta decide if I keep rolling SR for the cooler cards or if I flip back to another expansion
