[@20DX00]

Zen is officially a famous youtuber now :poggies: Sadly I didnt attend HoyoFest while I was in KL this weekend

[@ofcitszen]

nooooo you missed out on queueing up for an hour for free stuff

[@denyia9352]

i'll be the weirdo to say it: you've got pretty hands, man!

[@ofcitszen]

ok weirdo jk

[@Zolark]

I love how ur still using furi kaveh whale and not use meta decks like cynoverload and keq whale

[@ofcitszen]

it's what i'm most familiar with after all, and hey it's still not bad

[@Craftman2500]

He’s a gamer

[@HScreecHC]

So are you don't be modest

[@ofcitszen]

thanks gamer

[@kyohaksha]

Plot twist: zen forgot his debit card at home so he pulled up narwhal

[@ofcitszen]

a business model has to break even somehow

[@Yoisho_my]

damn bro you're a Malaysian⁉️ I wish I went there sooner had I known you'd be there😭

[@ofcitszen]

oh well, next time it is

[@snowparody]

​@ofcitszen DANG I COULD'VE PLAYED WITH YOUR IRL. Bruhhh I'm so sad I missed hoyofest this year 😭😭

[@euql]

i LOVE playing TCG specially the meta decks. it's pretty satisfying how the opponent does but yea i guess i (and the few people who play TCG) are the weirdos among the genshin players XD.

[@yuritron7000]

LETS GO ZEN POSTED

[@peggyschmutt94]

I would love to see you in Paris one day ❤️

[@ofcitszen]

I would love to see myself in Paris one day too...

[@mintchoco1849]

The Zen content drought is finally over 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🎉

[@ofcitszen]

this is just a raindrop in the ofcitsdrought that prb wont end

[@YukiiSnowyy02]

Alright lemme just fly to Malaysia next year and- oh wait I don't have an asian account :( ngl tho this seems like a fun idea for a con, too bad there aren't many tcg players

[@ofcitszen]

if only tcg wasnt a dying breed

[@euql]

Also I've tried the Lynette shenhe and Wanderer deck and with a proper setup, it's pretty strong!!

[@ofcitszen]

yep, that's why i made sure to use vicious ancient battle to deny the shenhe burst, or things might not have gone so well for me

[@Lunareil]

Low key hoped that you'd face some up to date meta decks but this game isn't all that popular I suppose. Edit: Also that forgetting about cathedral is a classic lol

[@ofcitszen]

correction this game is hella dead, 99% people i asked said they didnt play TCG T-T

[@ofcitszen]

yo i haven't seen cathedral in months, forgive me

[@YouW1llNeverKnow]

The Prince cup tournament only attracted 500-700 people (depending on the area it was in at the time)... So if only about 40% of the TCG players watch that, that's still only about 2000 people playing the tcg per server

[@YouW1llNeverKnow]

Actually wait, the highlight video attracted about 2400 people so far, so maybe the overall TCG players account to 6000 per server.

[@YouW1llNeverKnow]

Looking more into this I was very wrong and I underestimated the GITCG population

[@kirank2170]

zen bullying hoyofest with narwhal

[@ofcitszen]

i gotta do all i can to not give out welkins

[@kmidori7834]

Rubia in the background

[@the_nick_knack]

For these opponents, the game was over before it had even begun....

[@ofcitszen]

i was thinking of not using the narwhal, but then i remembered my welkin money was on the line so i just pulled out kaveh bloom

[@hungnitan4632]

​@@ofcitszenI actually pretty suprised with Welkin on stake you only use Kaveh bloom, not actual Whale superconduct / cyno overload 😂

[@ofcitszen]

@@hungnitan4632 keq whale would make the games take too long and cyno overload is just overkill here, so i just stuck to kaveh bloom xD

[@Emily-z8j1t]

Can anyone explain the keqing narwhal deck and how it works to me?

[@ofcitszen]

create a ton of cards (serene, mamere, Keqing E) -> draw a ton of cards -> feed it ALL to the whale -> at least 12 stack whale on round 3 with Shooting Stars for Freeze and Keqing would've dealt plenty of damage already technically kaveh bloom also creates a 12 stack whale on round 3, but only if your opponent lets you trigger Bloom. If your opponent is really good, you'll only get 9 stacks which isn't good enough

[@lightningstiletto]

how did u not run into any narwhal or cyno... tcg really is dead

[@20DX00]

As someone from Malaysia, the TCG scene here is so non-existent, we can literally count the number of players here on 10 fingers and they're all in the GITCG discord

[@ofcitszen]

malaysia has like 10 tcg players out of 30 million people, it's kinda sad

[@HScreecHC]
