[QUOTE="Orius, post: 5539804, member: 8863"] Ohh, interesting. It's basically Triple Triad from FFVIII, except with hot fairies instead of FFVIII monsters/characters. And I rock at Triple Triad. The Elemental stuff seems to be kind of bugged. It's not showing up on the field or the cards. You can see it in this match: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/tripletriad.php?do=arena&act=replay&id=1677[/url] And I agree with Jonesy. There's too many rules in Random Guardsman for a beginner game. Probably either Elemental, Sudden Death or Random should go. I'd really say Random or Sudden Death rather than Elemental; IME Elemental isn't a rule to worry about since it's pretty random. If anything, in that game Sudden Death was a bigger problem since the AI wasn't playing too stupid (unlike the typical FFVIII NPC that plays cards in a fixed and very easy to beat pattern), and it took several rounds for it to make a mistake. Also, if he's easy he should only have the first two levels instead of three. Basic strategy tip: try to control the corners. Erica from the starter deck is your first good card for this, as you can see with her 6/6 in the upper left corner. Play her towards the bottom and right and the Guardsman can only flip her with Pap or Trug unless you put her on an element. Also, the Guardsman has Open, so keep your weaker numbers against a wall or another card and don't expose them on a side where he can flip you. And please, less opponents with Random. [/QUOTE]
