People complain that it screws over weaker players, but unless you were specifically chasing money rares, I'd still prefer taking 4th or 5th pick out of the entire pool over just taking the rares I drafted in most cases.

You very quickly get to the point where none of your Pokemon are at any risk because of how insanely overleveled you get, and the rest is just the annoyance of not being allowed to catch the Pokemon you want. For those that don't know, the XP change in Gen 6 is that all Pokemon that participated in a battle get FULL XP for it, rather than having the XP split between them. Which means that if you train more than one Pokemon up, all the Pokemon that helped you train it via switching just end up disgustingly overleveled. | ||

That's interesting. I'll bring it up, though I'm not sure if people truly care enough for that to happen. I mean the last draft where a big money card came up (foil hellkite charger) the guy drafted it for his deck and for good reason as well. Someone else got Marchesa. As far as fate reforged it seems as though the rares are being evaluated at less than their usual values as well? No wait it wasn't hellkite charger...I gotta look it up. Some really awesome dragon. Scourge of the throne. | ||

Unless it's rare-drafting or there's a significant number of prize packs, ofc you're going to draft for rares. The number of packs for 1st place has to be pretty high AND you have to know you have a shot at winning it for it to be worth it over most chase rares. Taking a $5 rare over the chance at like 2 more packs is a no-brainer. | ||

Though it seems that there is going to be a delay in beta because of this. ;( You could say AOA is my favorite group, though I would be lying because IU is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Not sure why copyright on the name would delay beta at all seeing as the legal department and the development department are totally different. All they'd have to do is buy out the copyright or just tweak the name. Or even argue that the names have no conflict of interest. I read the article and the name is used for an airsoft/paintball/fps competition thing apparently. Edit: apparently it's just an app for paintball and airsoft with a gps in it.... American copyright is pretty bs if they don't allow a multiplayer game to have the same name as an app.... | ||

My friend and I tried to nuzlocke run ORAS, and man do they make the game easy. We even did some pretty brutal rules to help screw ourselves over, but the game was adamant about making sure that we could progress without too many difficulties. Pro Tip: Don't walk into the grass on route 101 until you're forced to. Trust me on this one. | ||
