I'm up to 659 wins on Tataru and I've lost count on draws/losses, so I'm really to a point where that card is very much losing it's value to me when there is no such system in place to at least give me hope other than 3 dice rolls in a row.

    Actually I'm surprised they never added this to the game. We can't trade cards with other people. The cards sell for crap MGP as it is. They should have made it where if we win we get to pick a single card from the ones we flipped over as well as if we flipped them all then we get all the cards. Was something that I was hoping to see when they first put the game out but instead they want to rely on their horrid RNG drop base system to force people into grinding more.

    Exactly. They implemented everything else exactly as it was -except- for the part that matters. I wouldn't WANT to receive all the cards in one go because that would be way too easy and we would blow through it too quickly, but I posted in the Suggestion forum (although I'm not even sure if it will get seen) but asked for such a system. We should at LEAST get the opportunity in some kind of fashion to pick the card we want instead of mindlessly grinding for it.

    As far as your opinions on Random, I agree with you somewhat but largely disagree. Her deck is good for almost every single situation, save for reverse. This shows you that her deck is not tuned properly with the amount of low level cards for her to have a chance to win at reverse as well. The ONLY time you have a decent chance with winning is getting good 1 star card deck on plus, and on Reverse when you get crappy hand to counter her large numbers. I'm sorry, but if you get a handful of one star cards, the -only- rule in your favor is reverse/plus. The rest favor her substantially. Learning her deck does nothing when you literally cannot flip her cards due to the unavailability of power to do so.

    We r forced to abide by the random rule yet when npcs like tataru taru play under random they seem to always have that "one" op card in their deck 99% of the time if not 100%.
    Its so BS that they get to rig it like that. Not even believing in the heart of the cards will save u if u get handed a bad hand lol.

    Simple reason for that. NPC only got 6-7 cards in total. So "random" isn't very random for them.

    I know Tataru's cards very well. I've even gotten to play with most of them thanks to the swap rule. But it doesn't help you when the rule is order or chaos and you're forced to play the Sabotender card and all the open numbers she controls on the table are 7+. And you know what cards are probably left in her hand, and she's going to flip that Sabotender right over after you play it.

    I usually don't mind Random. It means that I don't have to think about what deck to use. But combined with Roulette against a strong NPC with a timer, it's frustrating.

    Keep random ingame.
    Polish it up with giving NPCs much more (3 star) cards
