![]() Your opponent takes it by playing one of their corner double 8s in the NW or NE slot. You play your non-corner double 8 on the north slot with an 8 facing south. I will give you an example of what happens. Yours is built with a specific strength and weakness. Corner decks inherently play around the middle by nature and are more conservative / balanced. You have a deck that can play one side of the board and still work. His Firion against your deck is fairly useless because you don't play a north south game. Your deck doesn't care about the corners. Their deck is based around controlling corners. Certainly not to have fun, because Spinner's Pull is anything but. In short, I did it for the platinum rewards and nothing else. Most of these were draws, and the only wins were from when I snagged the other guy's 5-star or happened to be matched with someone who wasn't playing with the best 3-stars available. As it stands, I managed to get third place this week (for now) with 1705 points, only 6 wins. ![]() Personally, I think they should just get rid of this one tournament altogether, or at the very least pair Swap with a rule that injects some strategy/unpredictability to the whole affair. Many people have suggested removing the limit on 4-star cards, as they have done in the past for 3-star, and while I'm in favor of this idea, in this case it only means that we'll get all the cards with 9s in the corners and use those instead. And when that RNG can mean the difference between placing in the tournament, and not? It's just horrible design. This rule takes a game of skill and reduces it to pure RNG. The player with two 5-stars will win, no exceptions. If two players using this deck play it smart, a draw is inevitable.Īnd that's where Swap turns a total lack of effort into an exercise in frustration, as you can either get lucky and steal the other guy's 5-star, or have the same thing happen in reverse. With our decks handicapped at 3 stars, there is no reason NOT to use this combo for the Spinner's Pull (substituting any given good 5-star such as Squall or Terra). In this case, The Griffin, Hilda, Lucia sas Junius, Ysayle, and Firion. I, like most people, use a deck consisting of 8's in the corners and one 5 star. The two rules are Swap and Three Open, and as anyone who's played competitively in the tournaments can attest, these do absolutely nothing for more skilled players. And boy, oh, boy, does this tournament really get on my nerves. I don't know if it's the same across servers, but here on Faerie it is once again Spinner's Pull Tournament time.
