    Triple Traid 4 star cards

    we really need to be able to use as many 4 stars as we want in triple triad. The way the game is now you guys keep releasing 4 star cards no one will use because they just use a 5 star in stead.

    So what I am saying is please make 4 star cards usable after like 90 cards or so just like it is for all the other ranks from 1 to 3

    There's a bunch of 4-stars I have of characters I like but will never use because of this limitation. I can see them allowing one 4-star in addition to one 5-star sometime in the near future, but I can't imagine them completely unlocking 4-stars anytime soon. It'd be nice if they at least let you set your own deck limits when playing against players, though.

    Well there are reasons to run a 4* card over a 5* star depending on what you wanna achieve with the deck. For example, there are no 5* Scion (that I know of) so you have to use a 4* in an Ascension deck, or if the the numbers on one go very well with a Plus/Same deck.

    There are uses, just not as varies as you'd think.

    Personally I think SE should scrap the current system and put in a * system, where you can use any combination of cards as you like as long as it doesn't go over the limit.

    This is one thing I've really really longed for.. I don't want to be restricted to a 5* card and 4x 3* cards.. If I want to I'd much rather have, something like a 5*, 4*, 3*, 3*, 2*.. I've no idea why they didn't do this with Stormblood, but I guess we can always pray for it in ShB..

    Agreed. They should let us go 5,4,3,3,3. Right now 4-star cards are mostly useless.

    Actually there's the Stormblood Alph and Ali card that's a

    -6
    8-8
    -8

    And it's 5 star. I got it from the Frog outside of Matoya's Cave.

    Oh, thank you for that, but that still shows that 4* has a value in that case, with HW Y'Shtola making a really strong corner card for Ascension and still having strong numbers all around, or even HW Thancred and Lyse.

    This will probably be moved to gold saucer sub forum of it gets enough attention.

    But I agree. I currently have every single 4 and 5* card in the game and I wish that there was more utility in those card ranks.

    The meta is stale and rarely changes. The newest cards don't provide much in the way of changing the meta for most matchups with only two notable exceptions... the new Scion tribe card trumps previous power play stated Scion cards due to its ability to Triple A side after 2 ascension plays. The only other cards that have changed meta is for reverse in the 1* cards as there's now an absurdly strong corner 1* deck that you can make now.

    My favorite suggestions for remedying the uselessness of 4 star cards is give us a TOTAL star count that we can fill however we want instead of the current system. For example if that total was set at 17 stars (which is the max number of stars possible in a deck right now) you could have the same deck layout we use now; 1 five star card and 4 three star cards OR you could make a deck with 2 four star cards and 3 three star cards OR a deck with 2 five star cards, 2 three star cards, and 1 one star card, etc, etc. This give all level of cards new life and make many more fascinating deck options.

    This has been an issue for the longest time, TT is VERY stale atm, and tbh, not very fun anymore. Getting cards isn't really either with all the NPCs that use either Chaos or Order, or just straight up cheat. I hope this really gets looked at, but to be honest, I doubt it will be. We have been asking for this for years now.
