    Suggestion For Triple Triad

    I love the card rarity restriction for pvp matches, ensures a balance to the game, but if you are going to let the NPC's break the rarity limits, why not allow players to do the same during the NPC matches. In essence, let us set up 2 sets of decks, 1 set for PVP and another for NPC matches. That way, our PVP decks follow the limitations, but our NPC decks do not (allows for more fair matches against the NPC's that are running all 4*+ decks

    I seriously wish they would just ban any use of "GIT GUD" especially that image macro with Yoshi-P photoshopped onto it. It's the laziest counter-argument ever.

    Alright then, fine.

    The reason why the NPCs are created the way they are created is to make it an actual challenge to beat them. If you could load up with 4 and 5-stars for your entire deck, it would be a hell of a lot easier to beat NPCs.

    I say "Git gud" because I have every card from NPCs, dealing with the exact same rules that a huge amount of people complain about to high heaven. Obviously its doable, and has been done.

    So - what would you prefer? If "get better" is somehow a more kind way of putting it, I'm all for that. But "omg no SE nerf because I can't do this doable thing" is the laziest ARGUMENT ever.

    But okay, now that you've made your point, I still agree the challenge factor from NPCs is unfair for the following reason: it makes zero sense.

    Triple Triad has rules. I don't know why there are rules that prevent you from playing certain combinations of cards until you have X amount of cards, but it's there. Coming from someone that used to casually play tourney in MtG a looong time ago, I've never played in matches where this was. It makes no sense as to why NPC opponents get to break those rules when they follow all other established match types.

    Imagine, if you will, an NPC match wherein you have to adhere to playing cards via Order, but the NPC can play whatever the heck they want. That wouldn't be fair, and I see it as the same sort of rule breaking as ignoring card rarity restrictions.

    Suggestion #1: have NPC opponents wield a different deck that scales to the PLAYER'S card rarity limits, and those decks adhere to the same standards.

    Suggestion #2: Triple Triad on mobile platforms has three different grades of NPCs, all with different rule sets and decks they use, classified as Easy, Normal, and Hard. Either implement something similar so that players can only challenge NPCs that qualify for the restrictions already in the game for players, OR scale all NPCs as per suggestion #1 based on those limits.

    NOTE: I understand these are mostly unreasonable since they would have to overhaul the system and rebalance all the decks, but what I'm trying to make a point for is that the challenge remains and the system provides more variety and, to me, more fun in the long term.

    There is a lot of satisfaction in beating a high level deck with low level cards, which players can still do if they want!

    Yea, some of the NPCs are just RNG no matter how good you are. I mean random cards plus chaos? Come on.
