    TPCi Disqualifies Entries from 2024’s Pokemon TCG Illustrator Contest!

    @Robin Aisaga Its a contest. Those with the most skill should win. Deck building is a skill. Testing is a skill. Understanding the cards and how they interact is a skill. Your skill against another. If you just copy a winning decklist, you are side stepping a major skill. With how easy Pokemon...

    @Robin Aisaga Thank you for the discourse. I wish others here could engage with critical though. This same thing can be said about net decking. I dont make odd comparisons, I make useful ones to show fault in logic. Why is it that I build all decks from scratch, test every card against every...

    It was created by them. You dont know what the method to make it was.

    Yes it is. The rules state to build a deck of 60 cards. The art contest state to submit your artwork. There are no rules that say it cant be generated.

    Your argument boils down to "a bad actor did a thing" and my counter was the use of AI (something that has pretty much always existed in modern media) was no more unethical than the use of any other new technology or currently used technology. So, not even a real argument? You think its fine...

    Its kind of sad to see people not responding to my actual arguments.

    I'm going to reply to you since you bothered to use your brain. No person who commissions artwork to be done says they drew it. We can easily check that. When it comes to gen AI, you have to prompt everything. Its not as simple as "Pikachu with lighting effects". A lot of the time, those use use...

    So, not one valid point being made by any of you? Got it.

    @DawnX - I didnt see any rules about the use of assistive technology. I assumed this was about the use of AI and make my comment about that since it was heavily implied it was based on the AI. Also, a person WON an AI art contest by uploading a real photo. What are your thoughts on that? This is...

    Pokemon TCG Live’s First Year of Stats Released, Less Than 3% Usage Compared to Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel

    You do know that pokemon makes like a trillion dollars a month right? They can afford to make it better. Us yugioh players have a sexy client to play on and komoney makes far less than pokemon, like FAR less. Stop allowing them to make you think they can't afford it. You just don't want better.

    Did you draw that avatar or are you stealing assets?

    I dont like this. Banning someone when no rules were broken because of the peanut gallery is a bad look. Why punish people who work with advances in technology. I use AI in my works to speed things up. It's just another digital tool. Digital artist need to chill out because their entire workflow...

    Pokemon TCG Live’s First Year of Stats Released, Less Than 3% Usage Compared to Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel

    I feel you don't understand. Pokemon tcg live is a bad game. It looks bad, it sounds bad and nothing happens. Master duel makes you feel powerful. You get board slap, which sends cards flying, the game looks good and sounds vicious. Imagine evolving into charizard ex, it's card image pops up...

    Pokemon TCG Printed Record 11.9 Billion Cards in 2023, The Biggest Year Ever!

    I suppose I'm talking about physical card printing. There are a lot of physical card games and at some point it will get to a point where it's too much. I see it like a giant pyramid scheme. At some point you have no to sell too. It's clear it's done for the collector's market. I just don't...

    How is this sustainable? I know we don't think about this but I feel it needs to be talked about.

    It’s the BDIF For a Reason — Advanced Tips For Playing Charizard ex

    See, I play Yugioh as well as my main game and with archetypes, you dont need to do much. You just run your core and hand traps. I dont even bother reading or learning about other archetypes because there are so many of them. I play Floowandereeze and my goal is to resolve Harpie's Feather Storm...

    It’s the BDIF For a Reason — Advanced Tips For Playing Charizard ex

    See, I think the issue is Pokemon players still dont know how to innovate outside of what a person did to win. When Tord won with Zard, running a list similar to what I'm running, EVERYONE at my league showed up with his list and were complaining about it. As a Zard main, I can tell you people...
