This was pretty interesting (and not really surprising), the cards in a TCG Pocket pack are determined as soon as you click āOpen a Packā. Not by which random pack you select in the circle of packs. (So it doesnāt matter which pack in the circle you select.)
still works! Thanks.
So, I had an interesting thought. Since Pocket lets you auto deal and go do something productive, what decks do you find the computer does best with? Does it matter? Or does the duel PC manage to pull it out regardless?
@xileets Iāve never done the auto play feature. I need to try it. I wish the game would let you play against decks that the user creates too, to test decks and for training. (Update: just tried it on auto and I lost to the computer who was playing a deck that had weakness to mine. Wonāt be playing on auto again.) 
2,000 cards in and finally got my first crown. 
The computer is Really dumb. I mean. REALLY dumb. Iāll sit and watch sometimes, and say,
āWHAT?! Why did you put an energy there?!ā " Why sacrifice the EX when heās gonna KO you on next turn?!"
Gotta stop myself from taking back the reigns. Sink or swim, CPU. Sink. Or. Swim. 
And great mew! Iāve no golds, myself. Just rainbow thingies? Golds are better, yeah?
Does anyone have a dartrix EX, theyād trade to me? I will gladly trade some rarer art stuff.
Do you mean Decidueye EX? I donāt think itās tradable yet because itās from the most recent set.
Yes. haha.
Ahā¦ dang. I have a deck I want to build, but canāt seem to pull it.
Anyone else find the āthanksā system to be really annoying in this game? You get a shop ticket when people thank you after a battle, so itās useful, but getting the actual āthanksā is not guaranteed.
I have noticed that I very rarely get a āthanksā from my opponent if I win the battle. I get most of them from losing battles.
I have a hard time believing that so many people are sore losers. 
Yet so it seems.
Even when I am deeply frustrated with one of my losses I still hit the āthanksā button, every time. Because if I didnāt, that would make me the sore loser. Maybe Iām weird to care about this. 
āThanks! You just made me lose the one game I needed to reach master rank!ā
Even top tier meta decks rarely have higher than a 60% win rate. Usually itās closer to 55%. Losing is a fundamental part of the experience in a game controlled by luck. Sometimes you just get a bad hand. I just see it as common courtesy to give them their shop ticket, and view it as one of my 40-45% losses for the day. Different perspective I guess.
Yeah, I give thanks 99% of the time. But yes, probably 50% of people (or more) do not give thanks when you win a match.
The two scenarios where I stopped giving thanks are when:
-
They rage quit and donāt concede, so I have to sit there for like 90 seconds waiting for the match to time out.
-
They immediately concede at the beginning of a match because they didnāt get the starting hand they wanted.
Oh yes, I completely agree with those exceptions. Rage quitting in such a way that your opponent is forced to wait 90 seconds doing nothing is just immature.
I guess itās (slightly?) excusable if you view it as them mad at the game, not them trying to punish you / waste your time.
However, anyone who gets that worked up by a loss that they hard quit the app isā¦ probably letting a game affect them too much.
Were you not on Xbox Live in the mid 2000s?
Oh I was there haha. I just thought 20 years would be enough time for people to mature. Sometimes I forget the world didnāt grow up with us, weāre just the old ones now.
An other frustation. Iam a non payed user. The % I play and loose against the AI robot is 99.9%. Your experience?
