    Re: Tracking your Counter Resets

    Legendary Chris Paul pulled on the 234th board clear.

    Leg+ tier. Got two Epics (one of which is a support) and five Ultra Rares before.

      Epic ++

      120 board clears

      80 rares
      15 super rares (2 support)
      3 ultra rares (2 support)
      12 boosts
      9 enhancements

      Got Kenneth Faried. Not a dupe, but I only had pro supers at PF, so definitely needed.

        Hmm, we don't have all too much data to rely on, but it seems that for Epic the sweet spot is in the area of 120, whereas in Legendary it's higher - more like in 200+...

        Keep your numbers coming. ;-)

          So should we reset our counters with the new update?

            It takes me forever to clear the board cause most of the times I don't clear the board until the final 5 or so cards.

            I get so bored spending games clearing the boards, I just start making random designs/patterns on the board itself. Like choosing every other card, making random shapes/letters on the board and so on.

            I do the same thing. Often trying to ensure all remaining cards are next to another in one of the three directions. I also takes pains to not use the same designs/approach. I pretty much always try to keep it balanced. Like if I pick a corner, next card will be another corner.

              Same. I keep everything symmetrical. Bad OCD I guess.

                  I pick random cards I think but the mind craves patterns so it doesn't look very random.
                  Hopefully counter isn't changed , but as they changed the drop rates all collected before won't give an accurate droprate %, so I'll seperate board clears before and after update.

                    I always do exactly the same board clear. Starting with the 9 squares in the middle, always taking the middle one out first.

                    I used to do it kind of randomly but then when I would end up taking the middle one and then it was a rare it used to infuriate me that I'd left it so long. It probably makes absolutely no difference but this way keeps me happy.

                      I try to make letters or symbols (and i get frustrated when the board clears and i was just 1-2 cards away from completing the shape/letter.

                                There's one thing I'm wondering about this reset thing: What's the impact on the differences within a tier? I mean, what does that do to the drop chances in Epic+ vs. Epic++?

                                I think we can agree and learned from CatDaddy that the drop chances for the top card in a tier are pretty abysmal. That's why they introduced the counter. So if it's abysmal in Epic and - say - it's double that high in Epic++, it would still be abysmal. So it would be way better to have a lower reset counter the higher you are in a tier. Like 120 board clears in Epic+ and just 90 in Epic++.

                                Is there any indication that the counter works like that?
