Just some random hardcore video game nerd and anime otaku. Sometimes, I find new games to play, do challenge runs, or kick butt online.

I finally got everyone into Elite Smash! It was a trial of patience, but now I can rest. #SmashBros #NintendoSwitch

And now, it's finally over! I completed the No Somniel Ironman challenge (Maddening) after a grueling 69 hours of gameplay and several more on planning each map as they came.

It's been a long time since I've attempted this challenge run with the previous best attempt being Ch.24. Now I'm doing another attempt and I beat my PR so now my current PR is Ch.25! It's brutal and tedious, but 1400+ hours of Engage experience is finally paying off!

For the past few weeks, I've been doing a Fire Emblem Engage Maddening No Somniel Ironman challenge. Finally, I got good enough to get a clean Ch.17 clear. It can be tough considering how much harder and more is at stake as I progress.

Now I'm Master (雀豪) in Sanma too

@SylphyRei …you mean uninhabitable?

Inhabitable means suitable for living.

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

Managed to get Master Ball tier for both Singles and Doubles Season M-1, though I doubt I'd be climbing up Ranked as much at this point. Maybe I'll go back to playing Pokémon XD now that a patch came out to fix the crash.

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

@Kwikpanik Would you be able to play better against "bad" players by emphasizing more on positional plays over read-based plays? Sort of like how Wolfe developed flow-charts that give him the advantage regardless of how the opponent plays.

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

@Izunamochi_exe @Adverstal2 Same from me, that Shadow Ralts in Pyrite Town crashed my game and save file

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

Was playing Pokemon XD on the Switch 2 doing a hardcore nuzlocke, but I lost all progress to a game-breaking crash that also wipes out the save data :(

@TobyDurr @JueriHaan Because organizing your hand like that gives the opponent a tell of your hand. If you keep your hand shuffled, they can’t use the location of the cards in your hand as a means to get information out of you. Even if you don’t recognize your own tells, your opponent can exploit it.

Did Dragoon Turbo for last month's events, and did it again for this month's event

@JudeuYgo Correct me if I'm wrong, but my assumption is that Maliss wasn't considered the best deck at its peak in OCG/TCG, so maybe Konami underestimated how dominant the strategy would be since they didn't factor in the extra busted tools Maliss had in Master Duel

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

@tdarkhorse4 @AprilShowerszzz The math is like this:
1/3 you chose the monster
2/3 you chose a trap
In the first scenario, you just managed to get a 1/3 correct.
In the second scenario, they will remove the only remaining trap, and now the switch is guaranteed to be a monster. That's why it's 2/3.

After 38 days of grinding in Expert 3, I promoted to Master 1 (雀豪) in MahjongSoul (じゃんたま)!

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

@koitosjuice @Thea_shama Thank you for finding that. The Japanese dialogue seems to match one-for-one with that page, so is this a difference in translation and not the anime scene itself? I haven't read the manga so, it's interesting to see how such an impactful scene was seemingly softened.

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

@koitosjuice @Thea_shama Do you have the Japanese source for the manga? The Japanese voice says “もう、いいや” which can be interpreted as “I don’t care anymore”.

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

Been trying to rank up in Sanma recently, and I got my first Counted Yakuman!

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

Took a while, but went through one Hard run and two Super Hard runs to get this

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

First Ranked Kirby Air Ride City Trial EZ W

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

Promoted to Expert 3 with a dominant win :)

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

Also, our group played four South Round games, and I finished first place for all four games

[G.Caliber @GiantCaliber]

Got a Suuankou (Four Concealed Triplets) in an irl game of Mahjong, which was made even better as I was the dealer.
