Sssh! Be vewy vewy quiet. It's wabbit season.
Do you know why SWAGUIN is the best card? Do you?

It's because SWAGUIN does not care. It does not care about level 5 newbies ruining Colosseum rounds. It does not care if this game is, at times, a comedically buggy mess. It doesn't even care about the rules of poker. Five card? Pssh. Do you want to draw a hand of SIX ACES?



When you draw SWAGUIN, you are drawing WINNING. That's why you pronounce it SWAG-WIN.

(round started, then after I played my card the game decided the monster lineup was something else entirely and bugged out so that I got infinite turns, but no cards I put up would stick unless they were copies of the card already out- to wit, my ace. sadly even after reaching 5, or even more cards it did not process as a hand. so enjoy a hand of six aces, five of which were my card.)

If I understand the text correctly! the Cronos dungeon will only be open for three more days, and I doubt I'll unlock the next couple of tiers in time to pick up enough black medals for him. To those who have played longer, how often do special dungeons like this come along? Should I spend some of the black medals to get the minimechs, or should I save them for whatever the next big thing is?

Check the image of the menus. On the main menu, it is bottom right button --> Middle button on bottom row. There is a field near the bottom to enter a code.

My first 40 wielded no SS's during the previous event (did get a decent amount of S though).

This event made up for that with two SS's (and the rest Rs).

I got the Cigs guy and the blue knight girl.

Events are run basically all the time, there was a week delay between the Zeus and Cronos events because Cronos was new content, but they're doing a repeat-run of an older event now, so don't feel bad about saving up.

This gacha-fest is really good, every single featured card is fantastic in some way, so go nuts on rolling.

E: well, some of the fire cards are meh, but Gambler is a really good card

Next event is Priestesses of the Sun and the Moon (AKA 'Twin Stars'), a repeat event from earlier last year. I'll post when we know more, but relevant right away is that Priestess of the Sun is a fire-based healer, which is quite valuable. Expect much grinding in your future, and apparently there are evolution materials locked away in the harder difficulties :(

This game is fun as hell even if you don't know Japanese - the collaborative poker mechanics are surprisingly compelling. I'm having a blast even though apparently I got kind of poo poo for my first 40 stone roll.

Found EXP tables for the normal dungeons. The important columns are the first, which is * difficulty, second, which is amount of stam used, and the last three, which are the minimum amounts of EXP for the easy/normal/hard dungeons in each tier.

14* is where EXP amounts finally beat out against 8* Cronos, and it's significantly more difficult, definitely going to be missing it when it leaves :(

Time to let the dead be dead.
Sunday should be the last day for Cronos, or maybe early Monday, depends on when the switchover is.

I had a weird super weekday, the first wave had two trash on the left and center and just a single ring. So we killed them and they turned into cards, but they didn't leave, and next turn the game still wanted me to throw out a card. At the end of that turn we attacked something offscreen, then whatever it was died and the wave ended. At the end of the dungeon I ended up with five rings, two golds and three trash somehow.

No dungeon will guarantee you a stone, but evolving a monster will get you at least one.

Yeah, I never won enough to be that but I definitely won the three wins it claims are needed to graduate from Rookie, so I'm gonna go with Ocean here, it's bugged. I can translate it anyway though if you want.

fake edit: hell, it's short.
code:
Joker League   Promotion: ---                 Demotion: Rank 71 or lower     Level Restriction: 120
Ace   League   Promotion: Rank 30 or higher   Demotion: Rank 71 or lower     Level Restriction: 90
King  League   Promotion: Rank 30 or higher   Demotion: Rank 71 or lower     Level Restriction: 60
Queen League   Promotion: Rank 30 or higher   Demotion: Rank 71 or lower     Level Restriction: 30
KnightLeague   Promotion: Rank 30 or higher   Demotion: ---                 Level Restriction: ---
RookieLeague   Promotion: 3+ wins
Note 1: In Queen or higher leagues, you will be demoted if you do not participate in at least 1 match during the Colosseum periods.
Note 2: The above rankings will be applied starting with the seventh colosseum match series.
There have been some changes to standings in league promotion and retention, so please refer to update notes on 3/5 for further details.

Thanks for that. Seems like dragon enthusiast and I should have ranked up to Queen League since we were gold/silver ranked (which is top 30 in our respective groupings), but like everybody else still trapped in Rookie, we didn't seem to move up at all.

Apparently it means you are AVERAGE! ...with that being pretty good as far as it is concerned- it is rating you on a 'fuckup score,' with higher scores meaning you have a higher chance of loving up. 'average' means you generally don't gently caress up much and are more or less reliable and no one should really mind having you around.

(I got an 8 which is also average :ssh:)

A素出し (toss it out normally)
A絶発 (toss it out using a skill guarantee)

I also scored 7, trying to figure out which play is the major error bringing my score down :(

9絶発, 5素出し, Ace素出し (this is the one that i changed from my original answer, which was K絶発 WHICH IS WRONG BECAUSE SNOW WHITE AND RED RIDING HOOD HAVE A PITIFUL FUSION), 9絶発, 7絶発, Qor9 gets a score of 5, which is the high tier parameter. Still not sure if you can do any better than that, I wouldn't know where to mess around with it without just randomly changing my answers.

Got a 12, I guess that's bad? Still says average.

I'm guessing there's a lot of obscure cross-fusions that you'd have to either know Japanese or have encountered at the worst time to remember and get good at this so guess I'm stuck just trying to read the hand itself and all the relevant waits.

Tried the new special dungeons. How does getting medals work for this set? It looks like getting a certain amount of points allows you to roll for them, but I don't know how it works exactly. I imagine you probably have a higher chance of getting more medals if you roll on the higher point requirement rolls, though.
