"Discard your hand and draw 7 cards"
Man, this card would the nuts in Yu-Gi-Oh

>1715
I'm so close.

I've exceded 2000 on the ladder. Do the extra points move to the new one or they're lost?

At long last, it's time for e to report the final bits of data to disprove clumping.

After 57 opening draws, I have determined that there is only a 33% chance that there won't be any duplicate cards in my hand, but the chance of there being one duplicate is all the way at 38%. However, when I remove Fire Energy from the picture since it makes up 17% of the deck, I found that the odds of my hand having no duplicates is 51% and that there is only a 12% chance that I'll have two cards that are duplicates.

As for clump sizes, the most likely outcome is a clump of 2 cards, but when I removed the Fire Energies I found that out of the 7 draws, no one of them had a clump of more that 2.

These numbers should go up along with the number of duplicate cards in the deck, so it is only natural that NM players suffer from this more. However, it is simply a product of them having so many sets of 4 in their decks and not the fault of the game.

In short, anyone who talks about clumping as a problem is wrong.

>>26741999
You get nothing fro going over 2000.
Use this time for tournaments.

>>26742077
Clumping is a meme created by shitters. Like muh family curse!

>>26742124
Yeah, well I did this because I had some free time, needed to grind to 2000, and waned to make every clump supporter shut up once and for all.

I wish I could post this on the forums since the people who complain of clumping won't stop making threads and the mods have to keep deleted them. Normally I would frown at mods deleting threads like that, but those threads are full of false information and have become hugboxes for players who suck.

While we're being autistic, here is the updated stats on the wheel. I've heard that there is a chance to get 4 tickets, but that has yet to happen. It's potentially the rarest thing on the wheel these days.

>>26742383
Yeah, this feels accurate.
However, I think the odds have changed since when it began because during the first week or two I was getting 375 all the time.

>1 SR Ultra Ball
or
>1 FA N, PS Shiny Charizard, and other misc cards

>>26742724
Ultra ball.

>>26742724
>>26742838
Note I'm not talking about TCGO, I'm talking collecting. Got enough credits for one or the other.

>>26742383
I love your work anon

>>26742870
The second option if you're collecting.

>>26741653
Nah, Yugioh just gets cards like this.

>Pot of Cupidity
>Banish the top 10 cards of your deck face down. Draw 2 cards.

>>26743041
Any reason why? Ultra Ball has doubled in price in two months and is much harder to come by.

>>26743995
You get more cards for your collection.

>>26744175
Yeah but last time I said that I passed on Ultra Ball for 110 and got 110 dollars worth of rarer ultra rares. Ultra Ball doubled in price while others remained the same.

>>26744191
Well since you're buying for your collection it'll just sit in your binder until you decide to sell it. So if that's what you want to do, go ahead. If I collected, I would want things to fill my binder.

>>26744447
Rarity > quantity. My only fear is the price drops on the Ultra Ball.

>>26744573
If that was a criterion for your collection you should've just said that and saved us all the time.

>>26744684
That's not a criterion for my collection, that's a general rule. Someone with a 100 dollar card would be hard pressed to trade it for 120 dollars of less rare cards.

What I'm asking is, is the Ultra Ball's value stable enough to warrant the deal. I know Charizard and N will sit around 50-60 forever, Ultra Ball may drop 50 dollars or jump 50 dollars.

>>26744719
No one knows if Ultra Ball, N or Charizard will go up or down so really it's a gamble anyway you slice it.

>>26744860
Well I decided on the N/Charizard deal. I prefer the art on full arts anyway. I just hope the Ultra Ball's price doesn't rise any higher.

J-j-just, fuck this game... but how? I've been out of the loop for about 8 months now

>>26745737
It's the ultimate deck-thinning card. Games in YGO are decided in just a few turns so the dead cards are irrelevant.

[R][C][C] Concentrated Fire: 50x damage. Flip a coin for each [R] Energy attached to this Pokemon. This attack does 50 damage times the number of heads.
[R][C][C][C] Flame Impact: 100 damage. Your opponent switches his or her Active Pokemon with 1 of his or her Benched Pokemon.

Dont even bother with Arceus, its bad too.

>>26746114
Concentrated Fire will be a great meme attack while Blacksmith is still legal

>>26746472
So, expanded then.

How do these ladder point things work?

at first I was getting 15 per win, then just 10 per win, now just 5 per win.... does it keep going down?

YuGiOh has always been worse than Pokeman TCG

yugioh cards have always had a paragraph or so of text, while pokemon is 1 sentence per attack

I assume you mean what is the English translation.

>Supporter

>Remove all effects of attacks on both players and all Pokemon.

>You may play only 1 Supporter card per turn (before your attack).

>>26747714

no, I was asking what language the card was in.

I can't read or write English, and thought it might have been in English, so I asked.

>>26747719
Ok, Merci Juste demandez. Maintenant, allez vous faire foutre

>>26741600
At 1605 here, I care because it is an unique chance I don't want to miss out on. Either 0 or 2000. And since I'm so close already, I have to get it.

>>26748385
You could always trade for them. It's not like FA Juniper is particularly expensive as far as rotated URs go.

Sometimes you are matched against someone regarded as better than you by the hidden ELO ranking - your opponent has the advantage. Win this match and it's worth 15 points.

Win this when you had the advantage, or win an advantage-less match, and it's the regular 10. There is no 5 idk where you got that.

I assume that past level 10 levelling means nothing.

Eh got to the 3x booster packs and can't be bothered to go any further.

>>26748714
I think 5 happens when someone concedes before the first turn.

>170 points away
>17 or less wins needed
Soon.

XY11: (54 + 4 SR + 1 UR) * 2 - 5 duplicates (aka the Trainers) = 113 cards
Steam Siege: 114 + 2 SR = 116 cards

Since we know Captivating Poke Puff and Talonflame BREAK (JPN Promos) are added in this yet, could this mean we might get English FA Sycamore in Steam Siege to fill the last slot?

>>26750759
Probably not.

When's the next card update going to come out? And when will Sun&Moon cards be introduced?


Also predictions on new ladder? I say it's gonna be ANOTHER FAIRY LADDER OH GOD WHY

>>26750888
Is there a place where someone has recorded all the past verses ladders?

>>26750947
The ladder hasn't been around for much. Only half an year or so. You'll probably be able to find all of them on reddit or the vp archive.

>>26750888
We'll probably get a small preview like Kalos Starter Set late this year and then the first proper set in February (Japan's December set).

For anyone who plays TCGO, here's 2 codes I found lying around, they may or may not work. Enjoy

When the sets rotate and PF etc leaves will the boosters be removed from the online store?

>old repeating bundle

no thanks

>>26752758
>>26752808
While it is not a desirable bundle for anyone who got it the first time, it is still a good one for anyone who missed it the first time.
Besides, XY trev is a good card for any new players.

As in it is a hard match, but not deffinite.

Nah, im not in the game, my brother plays night march because he is a fag who copied the championship list. My best friend wants the Jolteon because my brother gets salty when loosing.

We would totally be going to Nationals if we hadn't already planned a vacation two weeks before that. Also we don't have that many points, so.
