I haven’t tried it yet

Feature absolutely fucking stinks. No way in hell are four EX cards worth the value of one

ltduck.bsky.social•26 days ago

It's really bad.

- Can't trade anything above 1 Stars.

- You need to burn 4 EX cards to trade one.

It's overly punishing.

Honestly, I wish they just gave us normal trading instead of trying to monetize it

ramos-andre.bsky.social•26 days ago

I felt really lucky that I quickly found someone in BlueSky needing the exact 3 cards that I could still trade after burning others for tokens. Only fair point is: you can trade even if you have only 2 cards (keeping only 1), contrary to other mechanics in the game.

I’m personally gonna wait to start trading, since the values seem to be…weird right now. Like, why are four Diamonds cards more expensive than one Stars?
Also, why delay the new exp. instead of one big update?

ltduck.bsky.social•26 days ago

EX cards are way more useful than the 1 star cards. That's why they are more expensive.

What do you mean by "new exp"?

neonskulls.bsky.social•26 days ago

That makes sense, thank you : )
I mean the new expansion, my bad haha

ltduck.bsky.social•26 days ago

Oh, fair enough lol.

Yeah, the trade system is so underwhelming, that they should've just delayed it to release the same day as the new expansion.

Fucking DISGUSTING that you have to pay a currency to trade.

baronmccheese.bsky.social•27 days ago

Too expensive! They should, at the very least, allow breaking down 1 and 2 diamond cards for 25/50 tokens.

baronmccheese.bsky.social•27 days ago

Still happy it's here, just hoping they refine it.

gvlbright.bsky.social•26 days ago

It would help if there was a way to be able to post a request for a certain card, like the older global trading systems of the main games.

nobodysh.bsky.social•26 days ago

If not to help a friend in need or to complete your 1 or 2 card still missing in an expansion, it's not really worth it sadly. They should have restricted in a different way than having to burn a lot of good cards to trade only one
