[@millercalen]

So just figured I'd point out that if you want to see the full exclusive cards in a pack you need to look at each packs offer rates page and not just the scroll above the pack itself. The Zapdos is exclusive to the Pikachu packs, Articuno is exclusive to the Mewtwo pack, and Moltres is exclusive to the Charizard packs.

[@erikberg2893]

It's not 500 packs for an ex. You get 5 pack points per pack. It's 100 packs per ex if you just want to trade the points in. It's still a lot, but it's not THAT bad

[@williamfairweather5055]

This is correct, 100 is much better than 500 but it’s still a decent amount but somewhat reasonable.

[@stormlightshield8169]

Nothing worth anything of value is free. If it is too easy it isn't worth trying for. People need to realise that if you don't want to spend money on digital, no-one is forcing you to.

[@ShinyKibago]

Zapdos is indeed exclusive to the pikachu pack but not shown on the banner for some reason, I believe every rare card is exclusive to a single pack

[@rastafari2k3]

Idk about the battling itself, but the card arts are sick. Makes me want to collect them IRL

When he said the Dragonite wasnt special i got disappointed. I got 2 copies of him and build a deck around dragonite and he is so op once set up. Also not knowing rarity of a card ugh but loved the pulls u had.

[@PopcornMax179]

Yeah, he's too slow to be top teir, but who cares. There's no ranked ladder to grind. I've been running it with Dodrio and another deck with Pidgeot line up, both colourless fast attackers to support whilst I set up Dratini.

[@lowdowndirty100]

$50 gave us 5 EX cards hahaha you can buy 5 EX cards irl for less than $5 and actually own it. Pokémon company milking fans

[@crowing3886]

Yea, idk why they didn't just optimize the actual pokemon tcg online game for mobile and just add monetization to that.

[@CosmicZoologist]

@@crowing3886They lost the ability to have a good UI for the online TCG. The original company that made the online game got screwed over by TPC too many times. That’s why there’s no chat or trade system in the new Pokémon TCG online. They fully lost all the tech to make a good online client which is why they’re grasping at straws with this new game.

[@standlethemandle]

@@crowing3886 most TCG's have seperate clients like this, one aimed at a casual audience/whales and another aimed at competitive players microtransactions being added to Live would cause way too much backlash, but I would like if they optimized Live better, that's one of the main draws to Pocket for me

[@keeganlowe5683]

Honestly I think this game is more about Designs they could never do in the actual TCG such as the immersive cards and many other cards and also having cards that are exclusive to this game

[@ElisaNoelFrost]

Nobody ask 😂

[@timewizardking]

cards are exclusive per pack, you can hit offering rates bottom left when hovered over pack

[@skysaber23]

Lol Kaiba with Pikachu.. 😂😂😂 also dibs on Gengar EX!!!!

[@SyndOMR]

Not trying to be a hater here.. I hate that you didnt know if something was good because you werent sure what other people think or what the rarity was. If you like it, its good! Cmon, Dekayed!! 😂

[@biscuitdacat]

Because he cares more about how good the card is in the game rather than how it looks but he's unsure if it is good in the game.

[@ghotyolocanisyn2880]

[@robertglanville2915]

Dkayed, this is a huge dream for me come true! Watching you make Pokémon related content. I'll happily watch whatever videos you put out. 👍

[@gazrygames2481]

Once you get more of the same card (like 3+ ex cards) you can add flare to them. Thats the incentive to pull more of the same.

[@zeusthefox1585]

Also trading will be implemented later

[@ExlaSaro]

Dked, I like your stuff but I think you are kinda misunderstanding this game's point. It's a collecting game, not a battle game. The goal is the high rarity cards. It's meant for the Logan Paul type pack openers and card collectors. The reason the battling is not good is because it's a secondary point.

[@Patrick-Mckinney]

i mean thats kinda useless no ? allot of people a broke right now ngl why collect virtual card if its not useful to play with if the game just isnt good

[@Gigi-zr6hp]

@@Patrick-Mckinney lots of people are broke right now yet that doesn't stop the mobile gaming to take over the lion's share of worldwide video game revenue lmao same can be said to people spending thousands on yugioh duel links, marvel snaps and XYZ gacha games

[@Patrick-Mckinney]

@@Gigi-zr6hp i dont think you understood my full comment well what im saying is those game deliver way better gameplay experiences so therefore the collection is useful No one says "im gonna pay money to collect cards in duel links that I don't even play" (I'm a top DL and MD player) All im saying is if they want more players make the gameplay better is all Thats like buying NFTs and they are not useful for anything Yes people do it Its still stupid

[@erlanggahadinata5543]

So basicly this is even worse than gambling? u just gamble to get card and thats it?

[@WarGod_PsyCo]

@@erlanggahadinata5543 Basically. Spending money in this game only helps you get all cards before ppl that don’t spend money. A F2P will get all the cards just gonna take longer than ppl who pay. This is a good passive game to have when you not on your main game to pass the time.

[@gonnagopro15]

Can I get a dibs on the special art blastoise EX? I can trade a regular blastoise EX

[@SCGamingVN]

I think this is a good base expectation for 100 bucks imo

[@mstnegates]

I know alot of people don't like tcg live but I love it. The collecting is fun but I just can't get warm up with the dumbed down battles, duel links did that part way better

[@glockdookie5231]

The people tht say they dont like it can never give a legit reason they dont. Its just kids trying to seem cool by not "liking" something. Its incredible we get something like that for free. Shitty crybabies will be shitty crybabies.

[@Nekros4442]

Trading will exist. It will always be easier to get what you want than most other online TCGs. No it will not cost 1000 to get every card

[@soupe2000]

so far it's a scam

[@TheOriginalMomo]

DKayed, you can move the pack around to peek and see if you got a rarer card. Thought you’d like to know!

[@Kaiyuni]

How does this work?

[@TheOriginalMomo]

@@Kaiyuni you can see the border of the cards in the pack you opened if you tap and hold then drag sideways. Don’t ask me why they did that though lol

[@Neowarshark]

I'm not sure what it's called, but if you ever opened a real pack, the cards won't always be stacked even when opened. (maybe they slide) You catch a glance at the edges of the card. I guess we can call it peaking or something. But in the game, you can tilt it somehow, which simulates the pneumonia.

[@TheOriginalMomo]

I hope they fine tune this game until launch (gettring ranked and stuff). Thanks dkayed. ...also dips on that Rainbow Gengar.

[@WhiskeyAfterHours]

Paying money for gacha games is dumb but thanks for keeping the game alive.

[@stormlightshield8169]

This hurts to watch. Hearing him say " we only want the ones that are exclusive " - Just sounds like he wants the rarest cards for views, he doesn't understand the cards nor even attempts to understand. He "Hears" something about pikachu EX being OP : Translation - " I read from someone else that the pikachu card pulls in the views so I need that card". I'm all for watching hype pulls but if the whole focus out of the 10 packs each time is the last 10 cards of the pack then why bother watching? He glosses over alternate arts because he has done little to no research past - what gives me the attention.

[@peter7596]

Calling hypno trash just because of the rarity…. Foolish

[@liocchi0768]

Honestly I would love to see some meta deck or fun gimmick deck recipes from you. There isn't any ranked mode yet but there is casual PVP matches which are pretty fun imo.

Living in NZ had its benefits with this game. We were actually part of the initial launch wave so can get all the packs without having to use other sign up methods.

Where is the discord link?

[@Neowarshark]

Dkayed, i guess, that explains the chronicle system coming to duel links after he passed away the yu gi oh creator? That could always be added to duel links, but they never did until now, but i think you're talking about the video cards? I guess making a 1000 times of the same monster summoning video would be annoying and time-consuming until it's considered right. xD

[@demontferrat]

Hope you stay on the game Dkayed, also dibs on the Blastoise, but if that is taken I’d be happy with the Peugeot

[@devlinrenata4369]

Watching this a day late and not sure if you figured out what the shinedust does. But essentially you use that as well as dupes to give said card an animation on reveal. Sadly it doesn’t help with obtaining other cards but it gives a cool cosmetic effect
