They are trying to balance ELO cause it's the elite tourney. If you are in the top 25 of ELO you then have a chance to win collector cards which are mostly hundreds of thousands of clintz worth. While in normal tourneys the jackpot never reaches that big anyways. Plus there is actually limitiations in ELO. You can only use a total of 25 lvls with your character selections. Which means it is definitely harder than normal tourneys.


P.S. can you tell me what DJ Korr's ability is so that i can tell you how to beat them? I couldn't recall his ability.]]>Fri, 24 Nov 2006 01:21:30 GMTELO to regular (tournament) play ... the point i was gettin at was why try and 'balance' ELO only ? If you are going to place bans on cards in ELO mode then where is the balance in tournament play ?]]>Fri, 24 Nov 2006 00:15:38 GMT

ReiXi, I don't think they will ever ban all Cr's from ELO/Tournament play. The whole point of a game likk this is to have cards others dont have or have forgotten about. Right now the cards are in the 170's (count) and thats pretty young for a crad game likethis. Wiat until there are like 1000 cards (like MTG) and players come up with a 1 generation card like DJ Korr and the other player is like "what the heck?".

Would be cool if some type of sacrifice function is introduced to the game to limit super powerful card duplication in a deck, but again I think that we are "not there yet".]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 23:44:25 GMTELO here... They are banning cards in ELO...

@Kmathie

It is not possible to use 7 DJ Korr in ELO mode. Mate, the arguement is inappropriate. Also if you are gonna verse a deck with 7 DJ Korr's in a normal daily tourney, it'll be easy to defeat that guy cause he probably wouldn't have any bonus.]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 21:55:16 GMT
you may not earn alot of points using only DJ Korr Cr .... but you don't earn many points playing him either ... very hard to get a win]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 18:16:48 GMT
Fraggel said "It's get expensive very quickly (2.. 4... 8... 16... 32... 64... 128... etc..) ". So each vote you make costs you twice as much as your last vote = exponential augementation

In a Fibonacci sequence each term is the sum of the two term before that, the sequence starts with 1, 1. so the sequence continues with 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89,.....]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 08:05:46 GMT
Where else can you use Vickie now? Daily tourney's? Normal Games?

In daily tourney's most of the people who wins are playing "OLD" style. Old Style players Mostly uses Uppers, Sentinels, GHEIST or Junks. Vickie is from Montana and that card has now become only a card people collect just to achieve the Titan Rank. In other words, it's become useless... Vickie is a rare card and cost's players a fortune just to get one. If we are only going to use them in normal fights then buying it for 40k is not worth it at all... I'd rather spend my 40k to buy a deck that would give me more wins in normal fights than buy vickie and struggle on buying other cards that I need to team up with vickie.

If we cannot use these cards in tourney's, then they basically are useless and i don't think they still deserve to be rares or uncommons.


I hope you are getting my point.

Thanks and Have a Good Day.]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 06:47:41 GMT Playing only Dj Korr in tournaments will not get you many points...

Reixi:
We already have non-collector card ban from elo (Vickie). We totally agree that the balance in ELO will always needs tweeking. We will ban (and
maybe unban) cards regulary so the ELO mode stay fresh and the players must keep adapting. We didn't say it was "unfair" to the other players, it's
just that we cannot see the point of having 8 cards that would be "the best combination" forever.]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 06:35:25 GMTPussycats and Uppers are overpowered" It should be "felt" not fell.

Secondly, banning cards for the ELO tourney is abit disturbing. I would definitely understand banning collector cards from ELO cause not all players can have them but banning common, uncommon and rare cards in ELO? C'mon... Anybody can buy those cards, how is it unfair for other players?

I reckon that after these cards gets banned and players discovers new cards suitable for the ELO tourney, another issue will come up again stating that the new cards are unfair and needs to be banned... And the cycle continues...


Well i just hope that this action which the admins are currently deciding on be studied thoroughly before they do the actual banning.]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 04:58:39 GMTBill -- he's a penny pincher! Pussy cats must go... Can you make Lost Hog a Cr soon. hehe]]>Thu, 23 Nov 2006 02:29:08 GMTPussycats. Ive had to battle against them (and get smashed by them) in ELO mode and now that I finally collected them you are going to ban them ??

How about the best way to balance the strengths in ELO is to collect the right cards ?

And where is the balance in tournaments ?? I had to go up against someone with 7 DJ Korr's in his deck ... how is that fair ?]]>Wed, 22 Nov 2006 19:49:01 GMTWed, 22 Nov 2006 18:20:27 GMT
You guys have got to make a KATE card and make it super rare ; ) that way we can see who we are bribing. LOL]]>Wed, 22 Nov 2006 17:57:28 GMT you clintz to the poll and still..).
The idea is that we figured a "veteran" player will be okay to spend 2k (10 votes) where a less implicated player will get, say 1-3 votes. This way, the active
players gets more influence on the poll.
...you have to bribe the Lady ]]>Wed, 22 Nov 2006 17:52:57 GMT
Yes, a lot like real life but still disturbing.]]>Wed, 22 Nov 2006 15:32:15 GMTWed, 22 Nov 2006 15:16:17 GMTWed, 22 Nov 2006 14:34:29 GMTUppers, we fell that both the Pussycats and Uppers are overpowered, we had to start somewhere and so we decided to start with the Pussycats, but it doesn't mean we intend to let the Uppers take control of the City.
