Additionally, my deck is far from the strongest type in the end. It is a mid-tier deck at best but this game's design makes it hard to just up and change decks / factions easily. | ||

Was fun while it lasted, but I think I rather waste my time more efficiently in other games. | ||

Of course, sometimes, things will just not go your way; however, being able to take what certainties you can from an uncertain situation takes a bit of thinking. Considering every possible outcome and what your best move is based on those outcomes is a common theme in every card game. This game approaches it differently and the "luck" may seem more apparent in this game than others, but that doesn't mean it takes no skill to do well in this game. It's no different than playing Wind-Ups in Yugioh and relying only on the Hunter Loop to win games; you need to do what you can to take a situation and make the best of it. I wholeheartedly agree with the last statement, though. | ||

I don't really see how it's that much different than other card games. If you start with 2 land and get no land cards for 5 turns in MTG you are pretty much fucked too. Yeah sometimes it sucks when you just get rnged hard especially with the way coinflip / spells can turn out but you still at least have the order in which you play the cards and which slot they will be in to do. Sometimes it makes sense to hold back on spells and play all follower to finish off weak enemy followers too.(since spells are always casted first) You still get to make some choices / mistakes are still possible. I think the fact that you can target in games like MTG gives the illusion of control, but there's always typically one best course of action to do that you make based on limited information. However it's usually not that hard to play a "perfect"(no mistakes) game of MTG. If anything with the way a lot of the cards work with slots / your hand and the 30 second timer you have to be more aware/it's easier to make mistakes so requires more "skill" to avoid them. Not like trying to defend it hardcore, just saying I don't think it's that different from other card games. Unless you are Yugimoto and believe in the heart of the cards you'll always be at the mercy of RNG in card games. It's like complaining you realized poker has too much RNG and therefore is no longer fun. The whole collecting / upgrading is part of the allure of card games imo so if you aren't into that I can understand why you wouldn't like it though. | ||

It doesn't matter that most other TCG's are highskill in comparison to swordgirls, but it's pretty stupid to say that sword girls is as if not more skill intensive than MTG. | ||

I wholeheartedly agree with the last statement, though. I only started playing a few days ago and I have to agree with this. I find that by building a good deck u minimize the amount that luck factors into the game. Playing cards in the right positions and knowing when to play what is also key to success. Smart players will eliminate as much luck from the game as possible. Yes you can loose because of the AI letting one follower live over another but spells help with this. A good mixture will lead you to victory, it is the same in any other card game it is just more aparent here because once the cards are laid down you are no longer in control. | ||
