A Prisoner's Dilemma-like effect in Yu-Gi-Oh.

I commented about negation effects and proposed a possible negation effect that worked like a Prisoner's Dilemma.

>...either player can banish 1 card from their hand until the end of this turn:

  • If neither player banished a card, the
    effect is negated.

  • If both player banished a card by this effect, the effect is negated, then both player draw 1 card.

Then I thought it would require simultaneous decision resolution like R, P, Scissors

There're gonna be some funny mind games.

I find the idea interesting (not limited to negate effects) but it may be a judge's nightmare.

What do you think?

Phainon LC with Gil's Interest stack

Looked at it when I was eyeing DDD.

+12 base speed at S1 and the Def Shred is nice too.

That's 109 Base Speed rn, does it enable anything?

Maybe he can take action on 1~2 fewer Interest stacks?

Team support/sub-dps on sig is nice, but for a carry role? idk.

Spectra Union's Captial custom striker support.

Looked at the Spectra city frame from the manga, and I had an itch to make a card out of it.

I referenced the gloomy, steampunk, dystopian motif from Roze Enage's art of the city.

In terms of card design, I kinda want to see some interaction for the GY/banishment, whilst enabling possible recursion in Strikers, but not necessarily an ideal generic 1-card starter.

The city looks cool, and that is all.

Man, this is what shallow mechanical depth do to us.

Woke up to v4, devastated.

Now our AUO feels like a speed tuning nightmare under action delays and if your team isn't spamming FUAs.

I've been echoing this opinion for a while but more fervently during 3.x:

  • HSR core combat mechanics lacks depth
  • they will struggle to make design space for an interesting-yet-balanced kit
  • Eventually, a critical mass hits and they lack mechanical options to tweak kit interactions.

Gil beta is the embodiment of critical mass hitting action frequency.

They had an interesting idea but it collapses the increasingly fragile Jenga tower they've been building since late-2.x.

The devs are too comfortable with kicking the cans down the design room, but now we're starting to see the old cans rolling back.

From The Bank of Babylon, a loop workaround: Mana Transfer

To evade avoid the Mem tax from causing a loop to crash the Great Economy of our Coalition of Kings.

I present to thee a great opportunity - Mana Transfer & Energy Loaning

Mana/Energy Transfer

  • The subject will send its own energy to a recipient, not counting towards gaining energy.
  • The subject will lose/consume energy when transferring mana/energy.

Energy Loaning

  • The energy transferred can be returned to the Loaner in a separate mana transfer in the future, at a potential interest rate.
  • The loaner's interest gained from the payback will count towards the energy gain, but not the gross gain in a payback transfer.

Back to Gilgamesh & Saber

  1. When the Joint-FUA triggers, instead of Saber gaining energy, Gilgamesh/whoever dealt less DMG in this FUA will loan a portion of his energy to Saber via Mana Transfer.
  2. Keep the Action Advance because we need more action with Mana Transfer in the equation.
  3. The next Ultimate Saber uses will allow Gilgamesh to recoup his investments with
    • additional "Interest"
    • and the Fixed 30% consumed energy recoup is raised to 80% for this Ultimate use.

TLDR: Subvert The Mem tax with Seggs & Capitalism.

A funny Striker vs Grass Striker mirror.

I play this deck for these wild games.

A hilarious control deck when you can reset the pace of the duel.

here's the list

Notes:

  • TBH, this deck wins often from the opponent's confusion & not knowing the few critical interactions.
    • My opponent could've set fewer cards to avoid getting their resources nuked by a Rollback on Evenly.
  • Super poly + Fallen & Virtuous is super tight on ED space, I had to thin out some utilities and a few Aces.
  • I added RT. Vision with the expectation to discard my hand of cards that want to be in the GY (Rollback/Elemental Burst, etc)
  • 2x Area Zero as I wanted a better setup with Fallen & Virtuous to summon Raye from my thiccc deck.
  • Song of the Dominators kinda blocks Albion's GY effect, but it is a really flexible interruption.

Seele on top in this AS, she's able to get more extra non-resurgence turns on kill?

I noticed I get more action advances (outside the AS break trigger) when killing the flame reaver summons, especially in phase 2.

Which mechanic was enabling this? I don't see it in the enemy or stage info.

Ember/Mifu control swap play style?

I played Stagger Ember with Sunderland Prince before Mifu.

Now I wonder if I could pivot control between the two giga-based women for maximum great sword gameplay.

The plan is to main Ember before full stagger, then swap to Mifu for the stagger punish and burst in the damage window.

In theory, it kinda plays like quick swapping backstab/reposte from the souls games.

Am I missing out on any stacks if I only control Mifu during the short stagger window?

______________________

P.s. Was really happy with my Mifu pull session just now.

>!Was saving for Arcane but I figured I could spend a bit to greed for Mifu.!<

Some thoughts after playing Eagle Mladie with DHPT E0S1

TLDR: As long as your team's SPDs are high enough, forgoing high-frequency triggers like Tribbie, you can play Eagle Mladie with a fast Dante E0S1 as his only healing.

I had some sustain issues (in AA King) with Eagle RMC because my attack frequency was too high for DHPT to keep up.

When I switched to Sparkle, DHPT sustains the AA King fight way better, and it was an easy 1 cycle (could be 0 cycle if I made a 0cc setup)

(I don't have Tribbie to test, but I think it's gonna be quite similar to RMC)

P.S. Aside from my Vonwacq allergy, this Mladie can set up his Ult okay with his SPD.

  • 172 Spd for the AA's 170 threshold for
    • 9 actions in 2 cycles
    • At least 2x timed Mladie Ults in 2 cycles (500 AV)
    • (9x10000-5000)/500 = 170 SPD required
  • DHPT at ~160 SPD with Eagle

Headgear rerolled from 3x Flat Atk to 3x Atk%, not bad.

The most optimized unit in my account.

A nice Aeon-optimized with sustain, now we'd just need a Fuxuan NF.

If the quickplay chains build up in a handtrap-heavy format, would funny tech like this have a use?

Since RT Vision, Chant, Linkage and the opponent's handtraps, etc

How often would our chain links get to CL3?

This card is kinda useless below CL3, though.
