Triple Triad Tournament - Rule speculation

[Runewraith]

I don't think we've heard anything from SE regarding the rules of the tournament yet, so I'm going to speculate.

1) Random rule in effect. Nobody gets to choose their deck, to weed out everyone who tried to farm cards against overpowered NPCs. This rule does not affect NPCs.

2) Chaos rule in effect. Why should you get to choose what card to play? It's only fair to let SE do so for you. This rule does not affect NPCs.

3) While Random is in effect, you won't be allowed to break rarity rules in your 'randomly' chosen deck. This rule does not affect NPCs.

4) Win/Lose is a hard statistic to track. Instead of ranking players, let's decide on first three finishers with a /random role.

That really wouldn't be much of a tournament. More like, Triad Cactpot. No thanks, bro.

The OP basically said "Take all of the worst possible rules that players are griping about. Make them the official Tournament Rules GO"

I got 60cards+ and don't bother dueling the Random rule NPCs nowadays. BUT AFAIK, Random Rule doesn't allow you to draw 5 ★★★★★ cards...

You can never transcend the rarity limit (<30 cards: Only ★ cards can be added to the deck, with one higher grade, 30 cards or more but <60 cards: No limit on ★★ cards, 60 cards or more: No limit on ★★★ cards) with the Random Rule

exactly random rule was designed for end game TT more cards you have less likely to have a deck full of 1 star lmao

Well there are currently:
20 ★ , 17 ★★, 13 ★★★, 10 ★★★★ & 20 ★★★★★ (2 from tournament requirements, 2 having a combined cost of 1,4 million MGP, 3 having an unknown drop location, making it more like 13 ★★★★★ available in normal gameplay)

Sooooo... Even if you were to have 75 cards (since 5 are currently 100% unavailable no matter your luck or MGP wealth)...

Still a good chance a pulling crappy cards with Random Rule:
26.7 % ★
22.7% ★★
17.3% ★★★
13.3% ★★★★ (can only have one anyway even at 60+ obtained cards)
20.0% ★★★★★ (can only have one, some have a weird stat allocation making them not that good in comparison to each others)

If you were to pull one ★★★★ or ★★★★★ card...

Rest of your deck will still be crappy ★ & ★★cards

EDIT: The only advantage to have 60+ cards is to use 4 ★★★ cards, firstly those are pretty easy to get (aside King Moogle maybe), secondly those are in the lowest quantity after ★★★★ (which suck compared to ★★★★★ anyway)

Having more ★★★★ & ★★★★★ in your decks, will just increase your chance of pulling one, rest of your deck won't magically be filled of ★★★cards (and some are just plain 6-6-6 cards aka not stronger than ★★beastmen cards) you will still have a HIGH chance of getting ★& ★★cards..

Tl; dr : Random Rule sucks donkey balls and is worse than in FF VIII

This is the state of the majority of TT right now.

It doesn't. But NPC decks are sure as hell stacked with more rares than they should be able to carry.
