i don't like zera because it's too inconsistent. it's just not as strong going first as pichu silvally is. you also really don't need zera for anything since it's not particularly strong, it's only there to soften the handicap of going first which pichu just does better.
and if you're going second and forced to lead pichu you can still draw into null and retreat pichu for free, whereas with zera in the same situation you have no chance to poke with null since it doesn't get the energy until end of turn.

It depends entirely on how much money he makes. I used to drop hundreds of dollars on games that I didn't even play and then uninstall them pretty much right after that. It wasn't until I tallied up how much money that I had spent where I went "fuck that, I'm f2p now", because a couple hundred dollars, even a thousand dollars, on its own doesn't really feel like much, but when you're doing it a lot it adds up.

I genuinely think that it's smarter to save hourglasses and only use them outside of Sneak Peek events. Of course, "how can you possibly think that seeing 1 card all the time is better than seeing 2 cards some of the time?" but I swear I never get anything during Sneak Peek, yet that's when I spend all of my hourglasses.

I agree, just use Hourglasses. The event hourglasses are given like candy. I have only used them on one event to get the poison Ekans cause for whatever reason it was not giving that to me and I really wanted to try it in my poison deck (it was shit). You will most likely get all the mons you want before the event is over, but if you really want Blissey then just go for it. The only reason I can imagine you want to hoard them is for like if you really liked a card and wanted a flair for it.

Anon...yea, they accumulate and aren't event specific. You can save them for use whenever, though I can understand why you'd be conditioned to think otherwise given how pack points are fucking retarded in how they segment them. The event hourglasses can be used whenever, and you don't lose your points for losing an event match so you inevitably just end up with a stockpile of them. Until we get an event where there are like 10 promo cards that are all good and 1 day to redeem them all, there's like no reason to really care about using a few. But the best play is probably just waiting out until the final day before blowing any of them just cause you'll most likely get everything from the free dailies by then.

Wack.
I usually just used them to have something to do aside from jerking off before work but thats good to know.
My luck was absolute dogshit on the ultra necrozma event though, I know none of the cards were worth anything but it was still super annoying not getting a single lunala necrozma whatever its called despite playing daily and blowing glasses until the literal last hour before the event

hiker is a winmore card and a very niche one at that
if i have a bunch of basics to play i would much rather just comm one for an evolution immediately instead of using my supporter on hiker and risking getting redcarded/mars'd/whatever causing the deck to get shuffled and hiker to go to waste
it essentially only functions in lucario decks since it's incompatible with rampardos and other fighting decks simply don't run enough mons to realistically benefit from it more than once in a blue moon

Looking through WP while having no stamina or hourglasses feels like walking on a tightrope

I just gave up on wping exs and 1*s 2 packs ago and now I just open WP for 2*s, and only wp for exs and 1*s when my energy is full. Now I'm at 200 wp hourglasses
Anonymous No.58103585
How are you having trouble with wonder hourglasses? I have over 900 and will spend on every 2* I see regardless of stamina. The only exception was the ugly planeta nosepass I already owned. I'll grab meta cards I want as well. Maybe I don't struggle because I was never in a wp discord and havent paid for godpacks?

I start suspecting that there's either no pity system in this game (pretty likely knowing DENA), or gold cards share pity with immersive cards, because to be fair I get 1-2 immersives almost every patch

I did it Reddit!
After 24 fucking painful turns of switching Espeons Ex and Espeon against Greninja and the funny bird, I win.
You can't demote from Masterball right? It means I can finally play meme decks.

I really hate zoomers so much for "gyatt". Like, that's not even a zoomer thing, people have been saying "gyatt dayum" at hot chicks for forever, but some zoomer decided to turn it into a noun and now that's a thing and it's so fucking stupid, like it's not even a zoomer word so they had to take a boomer phrase and misuse and ruin it, like why?

Yup. You open packs that are more likely than not going to be completely useless garbage, then you grind ranked with the same deck everyone else has been using for the past 6 months.
