    GG! So... BoB is next. Though I might as well just wait for Bleys vs BoB to finish so I can figure out whenever I have to win against BoB too or not.



    Edit: actually, screw that. *challenges BoB right away*

    this is actually pretty cool.... it is my first time looking at it but I loved TT in FXIII, if anyone is up for a friendly do let me know. Id like to give it a spin.

    **I just saw you have to purchase cards with gil? ahrmmmm ... I feel like such a noob sometimes... or old and obsolete.

    Boldly go.

    Start by buying some level 1 packs - they are very cheap so you got enough gil for lots of those. Then, just challenge the low-level AIs to win more cards and gradually work your way up to the higher level AIs that uses boss cards. Or, if you feel confident enough in exploiting same/plus etc, you can challenge the high-level AIs right away with your level 1 cards.

    I didn't either. I'm kind of just... putting cards in awkward places and I don't even know why.

    Oh. I actually did think that Catobeplas in the middle would be your most likely first move.

    Edit:
    Also, don't forget to make your move vs Bleys.

    I don't know why that would be my first move. ;_; There was only one plus to get out of it. Unless I mis-added. I kind of caved at some point (read: within a minute xD) and just threw something on.

    It wasn't the only move I took into account, but I figured that you'd miss the counter-Plus with Minotaur. And without that - even if I blocked your plus, you would easily be able to take Catobeplas back from below, which would also create a "square" in the lower left corner, only leaving room for the upper row and the right row... which in turn could have been much more favorable for you than the current situation and could, probably, at least have led to a draw!





    Edit: Won against BoB 6-4! Spot in the grand final secured.

    Bet you didn't figure I'd have just thrown cards on once I saw your cards, didja? Ha! Predict that, suckah!

    Indeed! That is something I totally failed to predict.

    Technically, my game with BoB hasn't ended yet, but it's literally impossible for him to lose at this point.

    Actually, if I played the Propogator at the middle right, I think I'd have probably lost.

    Yep. There was exactly one move that BoB could make that would result in him losing. All the other possible moves, including the one he made, were safe win-moves though. So yeah. BoB's win is now 100% guaranteed, meaning I did get both of my predictions right!

    Actually, that would have resulted in a draw, not a loss.
