ok but Barbara is rly good in this mode tbh

[@sikkouvol.1996]

you are very wrong about card draw in this TCG my man, would be nice if you did some more research and not spread misinformation. Also when u find out why card draw is not as important in this game correct the video

I'm enjoying Keqing as a major value card. She GENERATES a card in your hand. That's huge. If it's in your hand, be sure to elemental tune it before you use her skill again, and you get it right back. That utility in addition to its actual use of a zero cost, quick swap to her is just... *chefs kiss* I've been running her with Mona and Fischl for resonance. Lots of fun!

[@dashg.o.b.858]

Can you explain about the elemental tuning?

[@Azure_Aether]

Some good combos to consider. Liben and the Parametric Transformer. The Parametric Transformer will give you additional dice after it sacrifices itself but the dice are random elemental dice. If you still have some leftover after triggering it it can jumpstart Liben on the next turn. Chef Mao and the NRE. This is a deceptively strong engine that can give you all the food you could use and can essentially pay for itself while giving you extra card draw overtime. Also with all the healing it's very likely that your characters aren't going to be dying anytime soon. Special mention to the Lotus Crisps that prevent 3 damage. These are a great utility for 1 mana. You can use it on a character you want to switch into and give them a good safety net to protect themselves with. It can also help to weaken an Elemental Burst's effectiveness. And finally Tubby and any of the 2 cost Location cards. Tubby can give you a lot of insane value over time by letting you play a lot of the powerful utility locations for free once per turn. Healing combos like the Cathedral and the Inn can keep your characters healthy, the Liyue Harbor wharf can give you a ton of card draw overtime for no cost and the Dawn Winery can save you on switches to smooth out your plays. All of these are cards you could already be playing and adding Tubby to your deck will make them all free once per turn.

[@renvega9515]

Katheryne is a strong card. Not until i encountered a situation where i needed to end my turn after a switch and I failed since katheryne card automatically consumes. Now I am using 'Leave it to me' card instead.

[@francenkovcan5211]

a note when it comes to Liben, each Omni die counts as a unique die meaning that if you play Liben turn 1 planning on him activating turn 3, make sure that if you do have a combo that will leave you with 3 dice left, but you want him to collect 2, that your duplicate dice aren't Omni dice

[@skybattler2624]

I'm running Ayamiya and Magu Oceanid control, and also played Mono Pyro, and here are my tips: 1. Aggro heavily depends on setting up the board as much as possible, so Timmie+Liben+Paimon+Parametric Transformer are better options overall. 2. Magu Oceanid is a Summon Spam deck, and I am using the Food Engine (NRE + Chef Mao) and all the 0 cost food for simple dice generation even if it seems to do nothing that turn. Add in Hydro Resonance and Mona, and you have the most annoying, stalling deck even if your summons are dealt by Xiao, since the healing and freeze is enough to buy you time. 3. Mono Element is where The Best Companion Ever!!!, Strategize, Jade Chamber, Katheryne, and Element Specific Artifacts shine the most, because you are essentially trading reaction damage for pure resource advantage. 4. I find Strategize to be a weak card in Aggro and Control, but in Midrange, I only keep 1 or 2 copies depending on the deck. This is because you can do a lot with 1 dice. Gaining 2 cards is nice, but then, Genius Invocation always ends in Turn 3, and you can get higher value by playing Liben or Timmie in the same round. Strategize is a net neutral (-1 card -1 die for 2 cards) while Timmie is a +1 (-1 card for +1 card +1 die) after three turns (YGO equivalent is Shard of Greed) while Liben is an INSANE +3 (-1 card for +2 card, +2 die, since you can't use the extra dice you pay for Liben most of the time. There is even a Liben+ Resonance die combo where you trade that die for an immediate +2 instead)

[@indeeditiscirro]

What counts as midrange, aggro and control? I'm lost with all this jargon, please explain and give examples

[@skybattler2624]

@@indeeditiscirro Aggro: your goal is to end the game Turn 3 or even Turn 2, if situations are in your favor. Ayamiya is the best example of an aggro deck, so is Collei Burn Control: your goal is to interrupt the opponents' play or stop their plays overall to slow down the game beyond Turn 5 or more. Best example of this is Freeze control (best team is Xinqui, Ayaka, and Chongyun), which actually counters Ayamiya. Other examples are Sucrose Jean Double Swirl, Magu Kenki Freeze, and Overload. Midrange: typically centered around characters that pop up on Turn 3 or 4. Quicken teams (esp. those centered around Cyno), Noelle teams, and Ganyu teams are examples.

[@AnArtistInAVoid]

Personally, one of my favorite support cards is the jade chamber. It guarantees dice that are useful for your active character. And even if you plan on using a different character, the mismatched dice can still be used for other things, even a simple normal attack.

[@sharktenko267]

That and the upgraded artifacts that effectively do the same thing

[@santosmoralesolvera4949]

Finally a KZbinr that says that card draw IS the more important thing to do. Great video

[@GhostEmblem]

You have to be careful with the smart die when using Magu Kenki the system doesnt seem to realize he wants cryo to keep his cryo.

[@soulstealer5625]

Especially if your other die are your other characters. You really have to babysit your dice using them

[@dafnid7294]

Ikr and I didn't know you could select the dice to use.. I thought it was an automatic thing you cannot influence but it is really good that I know it at least now.

[@jet687]

The Maguu Kenki requires to select the dice manually! Don’t want to spend the Cryo ones accidentally.

[@stairfell4569]

I've been having *so* much fun with the tcg. I've got a noelle deck as my main and I'm working on perfecting my aggrivate deck. Here's a couple tips I've got: 1. The more low-cost/non-matching dice cards you've got, the less value Liben has. 2. Got a deck with lots of burst-reliant characters? Iron tongue tian, liu su, and the exile's circlet can help you pop off that combo faster/with less dice than calx's arts, starsigns (mona card), or simply generating more dice for more actions 3. "I haven't lost yet!" (itto card) is a universally good card for any deck. Can get you out of a pinch real nicely. Its useless if your opponent kills your character after you've ended your turn though 4. 2 artifacts that I've found to be invaluable are gambler's and exile's. Exile's is good on anyone who just wants to pop their 2 energy burst and swap off (xingqiu, kaeya, collei, etc). Costs 2 dice, they don't even need to match. Gambler's is more situational but its really good for 1 turn kills if you have a main damage dealer. Noelle /w burst active + gambler + minty meat rolls go brrrrr

[@RafaelAAMerlo]

As a Magic: the Gathering judge I'm very impressed by the potential this Card Game have. Hoping a lot they expand it \o/ Also, your assesment about the power of Card Draw and Midrange being favored by the game reward system is a bullseye hit. Congrats 🤟

[@ashchusatoshi944]

Just starting out TCG.. and this vid is perfect. And the itto PFP in game makes it 100x better

[@alcideblair4846]

Lieben actually tallies all Omni-dice. So suppose you have 2 Omni left over, it will both count towards the stacks.

[@Blacknight6577]

The only argument I have is tip 3. I always try to match my teams element because I might need those certain dice to do what I have to do for the selected character or when I switch characters. Even if I get all the dice elements I want like say 8 Cryo, I doubt I would use all of them in one go for that character and use a few for the other cards I have and that’s ok. So I see what ur saying and it’s true, but I rather try to get all the dice I need for a better outcome

[@Armstrong1781]

Very smart tips Thank you

[@madeliefynana]

I think TCG is pretty refreshing and fun. My deck consists of with Barbara, Kaeya and Xingqiu. Barbara for some healing, Xingiu for some extra normal dmg and Kaeya for his burst. I also have exile, calxs art and Tian in it, so I can get their burst quickly, also a lot of stuff to get more dice. I mainly build it around Kaeya's burst, because it can do 2 dmg for the price of 1 dice. Most funny moments when I win are those where my opponent basically dooms themselves. There was a Ganyu (1 HP) they killed my active character. I was forced to switch and because of the switch the icicle did dmg back to Ganyu. Is it the best deck?? No Is it fun when I win? In some instances: hell yeah! I remember this one time Kaeya soloing it against 3 character cards, honestly I'm note shocked than proud when Kaeya killed all 3.

[@kalarai1288]

This is just my opinion and im quite new but I personally think that the Ningguang card is SO OP! Her skill can be reduced with the archaic petra artifact to 2 and it generates a shield thing which reduces the dmg taken by 1 or 2 (i havent checked) plus her burst does 6 dmg! Which can almost insta-kill a low hp enemy!

[@Donutz.]

Have you tried her with noelle yet? Or the stone hide hilichurl? :) they're really good with each other! If they're the only ones left they are basically unkillable if you do it right. It's mostly a control deck but it also does a lot of dmg depending how you play

[@John_II]

The music in this video is the night market from MapleStory. Nice touch if you're burning the midnight oil on some genius invokation TCG. :)

[@vennusventic1339]

I came to this video because I was beaten by itto during the event😅, I want revenge😂

[@soulstealer5625]

My own playstyle (which has moderate success) is to open with a character that has some form of damage reduction. My dendro team has Mona, my melt has Ganyu, my freeze has Xinqui and Monster has agent. This allows me to play my high priority cards like Paimon and then tank the opening damage from the opponent. I then try to get any summons i may have up to get maximum value and/or prioritise a certain reaction. Honestly the biggest hurdle for me is the AI spamming normal attacks to burst in the 2nd round.

[@TheFlutetune]

[@venikav4024]

as someone who never really played other cards games of a similar type...maybe race of the galaxy? but its not tag idk if it counts I am happy with how pretty easy this is..its fun experimenting with Dif decks is very nice so far, my favs are: Keqing, Diona, Ayaya super conduct Keqing, its not that good but its fun Keqing, collie, fischl Collie and Fischl can spam aggravate with their summons, settings the buff up for Keqing Oceanid, Collie, Fischl the summons do so much damage its unreal... Ayaka, Xingqiu, Diona force the enemy to switch when they get frozen, making them unable to do anything eventually killing them. and lastly ofc, yoimiya, Xingqiu, literally anyone else (mirror maiden I use) yoimiya is op. why how so much dmg... you can easily one shot any 10hp card if you set up xingqiu and don't get me started on pyro resonance, that food, skyward harp-

[@dafnid7294]

I had NO IDEA you could reselect the dice the game selects for you to use in artifacts, weapons etc. Damn, that is a cool thing to know now wish I knew it sooner tho.

[@Icy_Feather]

Liben considers every Omni dice as a separate element so expending that instead of the hydro and electro dice was completely redundant

[@firstkeepitreel]

I’m a sucker for Fischl, Ganyu and Ayaka: Ganyu is a “Jack of all trades, master at none” type of card. She has a cheap burst that allows for early superconduct, and once you have Oz up then you will be easily chipping away at the whole teams health. Fischl has an easy e but also a very powerful aoe burst (costly though). It’s useful if you get the energy early enough Ayaka is the standard dps. Once the other’s summons are up you can simply switch to her and she will take care of the rest- PLUS if your ganyu burst runs out then ayaka’s more powerful burst can replace it

[@Meese12]

I have not seen ANYONE talk about the Gambler card. It completely carries in multitarget PVE and can reward you for popping off one turn in PVE. Its so incredibly snowbally i adore it.

[@jmagicd9831]

Nice video, not sure some of the character cards were placed in the right archetype though. The agro characters were mostly the ones used in the Ayamiya deck which is a combo deck meant for an OTK at turn 3. Noelle isn’t really a control deck card. While she has some sustain, she actually can turn agro if you get a weapon on her and her burst up. (I would know, since I’ve played more Noelle than any other deck) Also the card draw while useful, can be overstated in GITCG since you aren’t allowed to have more than 10 cards and overdrawing can really screw you over if the overdraw makes you lost a key combo piece.

[@RagerQueen]

This is my first card game and I've just been using completely random decks of whichever card i want to get to 10 proficiency, meaning that there have been times where I had to try some more difficult battles over and over and over again til I got lucky. But no other decks gave as much trouble AND pissed me off as Keqing and Collei's. They both use NRE/food stalling and it's INFURIATING!! ...I'll probably end up building one myself once I'm done with proficiency farming kekw

[@LoverofChildren]

honestly genius invocation has made me enjoy genshin a lot more

[@impendio]

My lessons learned: 3W paimon is bad, elemental artifacts are also bad, liben is worse than expected and food is way better than expected

[@impendio]

Also Leave it to Me is way fucking better than katheryne, same with the rosaria card vs dawn winery, the game is just way too fast to expect 2 fast swaps over two turns, starsigns and the 1W energy on switch guy is extremely good for fast burst decks.

[@MC-vv1mu]

I use Diluc, Chongyun and Sucrose. No, I did not think this combo at all but I like it very much. It's basically spamming E with everyone until your opponent dies (and so far it has been very effective). I just wanted to use Chongyun, Sucrose is my fav card so far and I just didn't want to use Fischl (and Kaeya is cryo so no reactions) so diluc had to stay

[@gmsimon]

If you leave 2 omni dice for liben, it counts as 2 diff element dice.

[@redtailedhawkdude]

[@ilovecyno_realnotclickbait]

My deck consists of Jean, Maguu Kenki and Oceanid. It relies on skills and dices a lot as well as quick swapping, but I find it very fun to set up those summons and switch to Jean, freezing and constantly applying elements and swirling, forcing them immovable and making them waste their turns to switch only to have Jean swirl again and kill them. This deck isn't the best thing ever but boy do I like it because it's my deck and my strat, and it feels my style. It relies a lot on elemental die support cards, fast switches and stuff. Summons use a lot of dices and I need to switch fast to be able to get a perfect in a single turn. Yeah it's not efficient, maybe it is high set up mediocre payoff (idk you be the judge) but when things go right it is so satisfying.

[@razvyz8067]

Honestly im really curious if they will update the cards, do nerfs buffs cuz if they wont add new cards at least this mini-game might die a lot faster than we think

Personally i dont like the paimon card cause it well costs 3 of one color and doesnt get you any advatage the turn you play it It takes pretty much a full turn befor its any use and 2 inorder for it to pay for itself Meanwhile you could just play the area card that stores your last two dice for 0 cost Or the other paimon that fixes bad rolls for free For the 1 drop that just needs you to attack 3 times which you were probably gonna do anyways There is just so much more you could do with that three dice you waste on the three cost paimon that its not worth it.

[@edgydemonchild4485]

At first I had fun with the TCG, but after playing it enough I just don't understand why everyone likes it so much. I want to like it too, I think the concept is really neat and refreshing, but I simply cannot enjoy it. For starters, resources. Everytime I play I'm n e v e r given the dice I need, and Tuning is a waste since I only put cards in my decks that I like and want to use. Tuning a card wastes its value, so it's a lose-lose situation. I use the Favonius Library and Paimon cards specifically for this issue, but a 4/30 chance of getting one of those isn't exactly what I would call reliable. Not to mention character switching. It's just downright detrimental to do so unless you can at least use it as a fast action. Otherwise, what? You switch from one screwed character only to condemn your next to be equally as screwed? What's the pay-off beyond not having a character die, even though whoever you switch to is probably going to get rolled anyway? The latter issue isn't even that big of a deal, however when combined with the former issue I'm having it means I never even get to defend myself. I just get all three characters instantly on low health or dead by the third round. I can't deal any meaningful damage, if I even get to attack in the first place, so how am I supposed to do anything? And don't even get me starter on the Magu Kenki fight to unlock it. I've tried every deck, almost every character I have and nothing, n o t h i n g works. The constant switching around makes him basically impossible to damage, both he and the grunts tear apart my characters like they're nothing, and even when I do get to damage him it doesn't even matter since he has 20 HP. I get making it challenging, but there's a difference between difficulty and downright impossibility. Either I'm missing something, my luck has been screwing me over way too hard, or I'm unbelievably stupid, and not being able to figure it out so I can actually play the damn game just makes me want to not bother in the first place. I just need some help figuring out what in the hell I'm doing wrong so I can have fun again.
