OK, I know I'm sounding like a hypocrite here, but when I type complaints in battle it's because my boyfriend is complaining at ME and I'm getting irritated. Yes I've said on a few occassions "Oh jeez, you got 6 again" but I do try to talk to people. Most people are so sullen - I almost WISH they would speak instead of using those stupid symbols. If I'm playing alone or with somebody else and I'm NOT scared of my partner quitting the whole game because we lost again, I'm a lot more mellow. I rarely say a word, except to offer advice to the other player, or comment on their good choice of cards. However, it seems that while I'm TRYING to be civil, everyone else is whining their heads off.

I'm sick of this. Just shut up, will you? Yes I saw you got a 1:1. I don't need a >_< Every time you do it I have to say "I'm sorry." I hate apologising for random dice rolls. It's not like I have to offer sympathy, it's just a game, your grandma did not die. Saying that I have whined a few times too, but that's after getting 1.1 constantly in a row. On those occassions I say "haha, ffs" or "I'm resetting this bloody cube. I think the random numbers is off." Everyone else, it's just ">_<" Or "-_-;;;" Those emoticons are so annoying, I don't know how to respond to them. Don't even know if I'm supposed to.
Also, if you talk during my turn, your speech goes right over the dice window so I don't know how many points I had. I am sick of that, people having to comment when I defend - I defend once and block your attack, I get ">_<" right over the dice rolls. What did you expect, no defense cards at all? And today I got called a fucker for getting 3 6s in a row. Look, I know that's real annoying, I even said "I'm sorry", but this guy hates me now cause of some stupid dice rolls. The worst thing is, I find it VERY hard to control my own anger, and when I've been doing my best to keep it in, then see that nobody else bothers, I just wonder why I try. I've had days where I've taken abuse all day, then blew up at another player and had to apologise (I note this happens often with other people too, in fact I've had it TWICE, people calling me fucker then mailing to apologise). I don't call people YOU FUCKER though.

Other day, a player was praying in French to God for good dice, and when he didn't get them, flashed "NOOB" and "ASS" symbols at me. I just said "*sigh*, I will give you some decent cards to compensate for dice, I think I have a spare of this shield." And he was like, "REALLY?" The response is "Thanks, sorry I said you are an ass."! Not "REALLY?". Then he actually continued whining about losing! And said he thought I should have let him win, because I was level 50 and he was level 10. Well yeah, I really fancy losing 20 exp for losing to a newbie. He only lost 2 and WHINED about it! Jeez, just go and fight Reiz with her no creatures deck. It takes like 2 minutes!

Typical chat log:

Other player: >_<
Arion: I'm sorry
Other player: >_<
Arion: I'm sorry.
Other player: >_<
Arion: Yes, the dice are annoying. Bah, I hate winning on dice. Sorry.
Other player: You got 6 again.
Arion: I know. Yes. (getting annoyed, praying for no more 6)
Other player: >_<
Arion: Sorry.
Other player: >_<
Arion: Oh ffs.
Other player: You are gay!

Latest little dig in the lobby: "Arion should not be a KING. He should be QUEEN." (this one is priceless in its irony).

I don't actually play EP3, but yeah it sometimes gets a little annoying when the person never responds with words, just n_n, or ^_^, or >_<, and that JP symbol that looks like a smile. A friend that does it a lot and I tolerate it, but I'd prefer that he actually talked. I mean the only reason I play online is to interact with other people. What's the point if all you get are a bunch of symbols?

I'm sorry but this was hilarious, just the way you worded everything.

Unless someone knows your English (or speak it at least), they won't risk revealing themselves to be English. I know I won't say anything unless I know the person is English. In this case, there isn't much I can say to express myself but emoticons/symbols. In your example, he/she knew you was English but didn't talk. That is a bit stupid to me but there you go, that's people for you.

Well, I get it on Mintaka too. Played a def card today 1 minute into battle. Up pops the ubiquitous -_-;;;.

Had something to say about Pouillys too, but page refreshed FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT ARRRGGGGHHHHH, but really, that card is too cheap. Sega SHOULD patch it. I got thrashed AGAIN today thanks to being too scared of using it, because of the abuse garnered if I do. What do I get? Team of two fuckers using it. No way I can get close to them.

Against 6 slimes? Surely as long as you have a few round slays or cross slays in your deck, used with some decent weapons would get rid of them fairly quickly. If I see you online (what's your chars name?) I'll have a go see if I can't beat the slime deck ^ ^v hehehe

[Shimarisu]

Against 2 slimes. Cross Slays are useless if they stand in the right place. Unit blow and Kranz is better (shoot from distance) but really, what can you do? Unit Blow+Wok combo doesn't work either. HP Attack plus high HP weap is the only combo I know of that's much use and you can still block it with simple def cards. TP defense doesn't work against them, their AP is the same as their TP. They are free to place once one is out, if you kill one, out comes another. Pure pouilly decks are discard decks with only THREE slime, and the rest of the deck packed out with high level techs like Gizonde and high damagers like Unit blow, Punch, etc. Work it out, 30 cards, 3 slime, ten cards out at start, you are HIGHLY likely to get a slime. If not, team up with other slime user, wait for theirs. Then once ONE slime is out, all are free to place. And free to move too! Mix that up with that agility card and you can move for free for 9 spaces! It's totally nuts and unfair, yep I invented it, probably DESERVE to have it shoved in my face, but look, I conceded it was unfair, stopped using it. With Pouilly we were winning 90% of the time. Only times we lost were against OTHER pouilly users, and against the equally cheap and unfair Mothmant deck. (Monest should cost more to place IMO).
In one game using a team with another Pouilly user, I find it easy to get 4 slimes out within 3 rounds just by discarding. With 3 Card Returns on the deck, once they kill a pouilly there is nothing they can do - out it comes again. I got so badly cussed out over this deck I had to stop using it. If you REALLY think you can defeat this deck, try making it yourself and look how cheap it is. As far as I am concerned now, this is wrong:

Pouilly costs only 4.
Free to place all new Pouillys once one is placed, this goes for EVERYONE.
Free to move Pouillys, move is 3.
HP is a whopping 9.
Pouilly is Tech OK.
Pouilly isn't AC unable.
AP of Pouilly is 4. TP is 4. It's a mini, free to move mage and battle tank in one! Its AP surpasses a Heavy Blow combo so you are fecked! Really fecked!

Sega need to patch this card. And I think Inolis is too cheap also, 1 TP means nothing with some cards you can equip. Make her TP 0 and that might be a little more balanced.

Pouilly is undefeated in a weeks battles against Hunter decks. Do you think you can honestly say, that this card isn't unfair?

Unless that information is wrong, equip a barrier and the monster doesn't have AP or TP..... You can attack from behind the barrier. No? I've not come across one so I'm sorry for my naivety.

thats a poufilly (blue) slime not a pouilly (red) slime

Doh! I always get them mixed up.... some days I forget my own name ^_^;

hmmmm. Equal damage card? Counter? If they are doing crazy damage, turn it back on them .

[Malkavian]

Dam!! What is this refreshing stuff????

*Trying to remember what I said*

Yes, Pouilly Slimes are too good.
Let's compare with other 4 cost enemies. There are really few 4 cost enemies with such good stats. 9HP and 4AP-TP. And then we add an extremely great ability like free move and summon.
I think an enemy with that ability and low stats like 3HP 2AP-TP should be 3 cost already

Then for me the best solution would be to lower its stats. Is nice to have cards with such special abilities. Remove the ability of free move or summon would suck. Raise up the action cost would kill the free summon combo. That would suck too. Only thing left to do is lower its stats.
To me, make them 7 HP, 2 AP-TP would be enough.
