I won my first game!

By RendTheHeavens, in Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game

I’m very new to the game. Tonight was actually my first time playing in person and my third game total and I finally won! I know, I know, but it’s still pretty exciting for me, haha.

****, that's a better record than I've got! :D

Congrats!

Keep on!

So, which clans are you using?

I was using crane. I’m going through each clan to see which I like the best. So far I’ve played scorpion, crab and crane

You’re gonna love Phoenix; your opponent will have no idea as to what you are planning to do from turn to turn... heck, YOU won’t have an idea either! ?

4 times out of 5, you won't get the card you need. But the fifth time, you'll top deck something like a Contingency Plan or a Kami to let you win out of the blue.

Honestly we could well create a separate topic and compare our suffering win-rates just for the sheer masochism.

I'm a casual player who attends store events from time to time and try the occasional Jigoku -- I'm scoring 31% after 41 games, most of them being played with Dragon, and my most recent wins being with my new clan Unicorn (went 2-1 recently, so yay). This game is one ****** test of resilience.

Heh...I haven't actually kept count of my games, but I could probably get a semi-accurate total, if I really wanted to wallow... *does math*

Well I guess it'd not as bad as I thought, of the games I can actually remember playing (mostly competitive setting) it would seem I'm at 4-17. So about a 19% win rate. Though I suppose for full disclosure, 2 of those wins were single core games in the Kiku Matsuri, including one against a Unicorn player who bid away his last honor during draw phase because he thought he didn't lose from dishonoring himself to 0 until the end of the turn...lol.

Counting to zero is pretty easy for me! :D

Don't play all that often, not sure how many games I've played overall, but "I have yet to win a game" is pretty easy to keep track of.

The new game is vastly better-designed than the CCG was. I'm also way, way, way worse at it.
