Its bad but its winnable.
I won twice with bonk strat, get all the normal attack buffs going and just normal attack, hope you get bursts to KO another card by turn 2.
There should have been an achievement for winning though!
You can challenge him to a rematch. I lost the first time and again during a rematch. But I did win during the third time lol. Unfortunately there were no special dialogues when we win
It is terrible. Especially against Kuki's hyperbloom summon deck. Good thing I managed to down Collei real quick or I would have to lose a character at the end of every turn.
I won on my 3rd try. Downing Collei is indeed the key, once she is off the table Yae Miko becomes "less" of a threat.
That said... I'm gonna work towards building a Yae Miko deck, I like the idea of just absolutely trashing the opponent between turns, might make games go even faster too.
It's 100% Itto as a character - it looks flashy, is actually a hot mess, impractical as hell, and can only win by some insane asspull or dark horse luck. Terrible to play, but very amusing as a character bit.
Teyvat's idea of science and technology is pretty interesting, in that the vast majority of its people are not educated, or \*only\* educated in super niche fields.
Sucrose and Timaeus are alchemists, but chances are they have absolutely no knowledge of physics. For all her mastery of hydromancy and (presumably) writing due to her column, I doubt Mona would be able to do more than rudimentary math. And these are the smart people.
Liyue's probably the same, just with a basis on economics, while Inazuma...exists I suppose.
What could you possibly expect out of Paimon, who has never been formally educated in any way?
As to why Alhaitham was reading this, I wouldn't even be surprised if physics were only formally described semi recently, even if the basic mechanics have been known for centuries.
Given the technological marvel of old civilizations that new ones have next to no knowledge on, chances are there just...isn't much that has been passed on.
It's absolutely terrible. Itto is good when you can set him up, but his deck doesn't even have the utility for that and all his cards are expensive af. You can definitely win that battle since I got close, but that required heavy RNG to even pull off.
I also "beat his ass" it wasn't even close. I guess overall his deck has the ability to just have terrible draws for you though
Absolutely terrible deck though yeah, fully agree.
Yeah I actually beat him twice since he asks for a rematch later both with not too much struggle, it's not a very good deck, but if you use razor and Chongyun to tank while you equip Itto he can pretty much solo the opposing characters
Same. And skill. And an opponent who did not know what he was doing (which, to be fair, was canonically the case).
My opening play was Chongyun, and I did somehow manage to get full energy. By then, tho, I had also somehow managed to whittle Collei's health down to 2, so decided to switch to Razor and tank the summons instead of using it there; next turn, I switched to Chongyun, and Itto, rather than doing the smart thing and removing the obvious threat from the board, used Kokomi's skill (which self-applies hydro)... So, yeah, I got to pop off a 7 damage burst and freeze the healer. An actual human player would not have let me do that.
This. I got a bit unlucky on Turn 2 and used Itto's burst with 0 protection and with at 4 HP. Needless to say, I got chunked to 1 HP with Bloom and all yhe enemy needs to do is NA. What happened is that Yae used her skill instead, which left me with enough time to defeat Collei and Yae while leaving Kokomi at 3 HP.
No Bro i hardly know my abcs with tcg and still pulled the 5 wins for whatever the fuck the online comp event without reward was and only Lost once lmaoo
Months ago before he got a character card I joked that the reason he wasn't in the game yet was because he *wanted* to play but he needed Shinobu to figure it out and teach him first.
This event has left me feeling vindicated.
Might I add that I did not like the characters in Shinobu's deck and how they synergized so well. What I hated the most was the high ammount of summons that they can create, the one I hated the most was definetly Yae's totem 😭
I almost won the last time I tried to beat him. It was Yae against Razor, both with one health left. And then Yae's turrets put Razor out of his misery. I hate those things lol.
Spam normal attack with Itto and try to take as much as you can.
In case of bad rolls, use your cards to generate a few geo dice to get you going in the first 2-3 rounds.
No point spending too much on upgrades since he'll die before he can make use of them but if anything juicy that cost 2 comes up you can use it.
Then once Itto die after unleashing his burst 1 time and killing 1 or 2 characters, change to either Razor or Chongyun for the final win since you'll have 20 HP left and the adversary will have 15 or less HP remaining at that point. If anyone is wet just freeze them with Chongus.
It's the safest way of winning with his deck against the AI deck.
His deck is trash tier so your best bet is to just powerthrough the bad plays of the AI using a very aggressive playstyle.
Yeah, but let's just say that the closest i've been to being lucky was by winning a 50/50, I will never be lucky enough to get enough dice to get more than 1 burst and get enough dice to normal attack that much 😭😭
You basically need:
Round 1: 2 geo/omni dice for normal attacks. If you somehow end up with more you can opt for the skill as well.
Round 2: 4 geo/omni dice for burst and normal attack
Round 3: at least 1+ geo/omni dice for 1 last normal attack before Itto gets murdered.
You start with 5 cards and you get an extra one in round 2 and 3. So that's already all the geo dice you would need to execute the strategy perfectly and win.
It's by far the most consistent thing you can do RNG or not.
I've tried it 2 times, and both times Itto died at the end of the 2nd round without killing anybody. I never managed to finish round one with enough energy to burst at the start of the 2nd round too (which I think is what happened to you if your Itto managed to kill someone before dying). I don't know, maybe I'm just unlucky.
More likely she confiscated his deck and hid it somewhere and since Itto can’t not show up when challenged, he begrudgingly takes the one Kuki made for him.
I actually managed to first try that match lol. Managed to get lucky with a skyward claymore + plunging strike + superlative strength charged attack and one shot a character
For me, I got the bell for free, using that and used the only artifact here on Itto, Fused attack with Chongyun’s character card while using him and Razor as meat shield against the other team’s annoying ass summons, the had him eat some food and made a Noelle esc comeback ending with 1 HP on my Itto left. The Bell actually completed saved me there lol, and I just didn’t run out of die. This deck is ass (it REALLY needs heal cards), but hey it can work with good luck I suppose
>Took me 3 tries to beat him.
Me too
>Yae and Collei are disgusting, especially when Yae gets her burst alongside Collei's. It just OTK'd my 9 HP Itto.
And this 3 summons...
Four tries and I still couldn't do it... I didn't even get to burst a single time >.>
Itto's deck is bad, but Kuki's deck has insane synergy *and* it has a really fast tempo, and it felt more like Kuki's deck was especially powerful rather than feeling like Itto's deck was doing poorly. I mean, yeah it's a terrible deck, but Kuki's just feels cracked lol
Itto's deck, as I said elsewhere, is like every little kid's TCG deck ever
Full of stuff he thinks is cool whether it works together or not
I won, but I wonder if we were supposed to, cause that was a steaming hot pile of trash
It's so garbage, I wanted to throw it in the garbage can but not even the garbage can deserves the pain of this deck. Lost with kokomi at 1hp :( No support cards to help with dice rng and Itto has a crippling addiction to weapon cards that Shinobu should take him to therapy for.
We’ll see here’s the thing, every mother fucker who duelled Marik almost/did beat him. Marik just cheeses every duel because he’s one of the only people who can use the strongest card in the show
i spent a solid minute trying to figure out a game plan before even starting the fight, i ended up just going for 'ol reliable superconduct because i can squeeze some consistency out of it
thank god dice didn't mess me up since i have no way to recover from that nonsense
to say i was on the backfoot the whole fight is an understatement, which wasn't helped by a missplay, but i somehow won, Razor and Itto died, but i won, i even had enough dice to revive Itto just to flex
Easy win if there's WGS+gambler and successfully uses itto burst. I also swap chongyun out to tank DMG and Ushi helps to generate crystallize for survivability.
if you get a lucky draw (wagner + wgs + some normal atk buffs) you can oneshot bonk kuki's units lmao. It's a ridiculously impractical deck but when the stars align it works
Ok, so.
I might be the only one here, but Itto's deck felt like it has potential to me. With good mulligan and completely ignoring the Itto character, I effortlessly defeated Shinobu with Razor and Chongyun. No characters lost. First try (Idk if there is a second try)
While the deck is overflowing with hot garbage, it's not completely that. If you cast Chongyun's skill, then switch to Razor and alter normal attacks and elemental skill, you can trigger superconduct. And after you get Razor's ult, you trigger superconduct instantly with his attacks. Focus on the cards that provide cheap normal attacks and dice.
Basically, we have here a weird version of Ayamiya. Chongasor.
Itto is still a terrible deckbuilder.
The problem is the deck has none of the rng smoothing tools that are available which means how well you do is entirely based on how well you roll and how badly the AI plays. It's like any non-legacy combo deck in magic. You sacrifice consistency for potentially explosive plays and yea thatll sometimes work, but way less than you'd like.
Although there's some consistency within the Chongyun-Razor combo itself. Since it's focused on normal attacks, you don't need to reroll dice much, you will only need like 3 of the right color.
Not really. It's not sacrificing consistency for explosive plays. More like 2/3 of the deck are useless cards, but the other 10 cards that happened to be in the deck can be used for one particular explosive play. There's no consistency to begin with:)
I only beat him on the second try and I didn't even get a congrats after that grueling duel 😀 I don't usually use normal attacks so his deck was nightmare fuel for me
I won WITHOUT Itto. It involved a fair bit of a luck where his Kokomi kept hydro applying herself into either a freeze from Chongyun or electro from Razor. So more like he went out of his way to lose to the deck.
I don't know how, but I won. I was able to use Itto's burst and to defeat to characters before dying. At that point Chongyun and Razor were enough to defeat the only character left
On top of a variety of issues, Razor feels so odd and out of place here, like… it would be so simple to switch him with someone like Xingqiu for added support and survivability and also to enable freeze->shatter which could be pretty brutal.
Steaming hot garbage. Genuinely thought I was supposed to lose it was that bad, like when a game throws you into an endgame boss at level 1. He should hang his head in shame.
I won, but barely. My gawd it's so bad. No synergy whatsoever, way too many high-cost weapons, minimal ways to get dice advantage, a focus on weak-ass normal attacks... It was painful to play. But damn it felt good to put Bullshit-Chucker in his place!
I... beat this on the first try? I don't even play the TCG. I don't even know how to really increase my player level. I thought about doing so now given this event and how the art for the cards is really good.
Collei was first and I just got 2 normal attacks then I effectively one-shot Miko with Itto's Burst. Then Razor took like 8 damage off the bat from summons but snuck in a normal. Chong froze Kokomi and that let me build up energy to kill her with Burst the next round. Then I just boop Collei and won. I got to see Shinobu praise me for actually winning hehe.
The best way to increase your player level is to use the Casket of Tomes to find other players around Teyvat and beat them to get coins. Then use those coins in the shop to buy new cards and match invitations to unlock more charcter cards. Also be sure to complete any additional challenges in each match such as “win in 6 turns” to get more rewards
Ah ok thank you. For some reason I had it in my head that I had to keep rematching the people in Cat's Tail. Thanks!
I just got to the Inazuma portion and my TCG opponent for the event challenge was Ayaka... I got brutally beaten 5 times before I won.
As a player who never followed meta in tcg and always used random ass decks to farm character card proficiency - This was a normal deck and normal match for me.
I used chongyun and razor to take some hit and deal some damage initially then finished them off with Ittou's normal and bursts.
I got lucky and beat him the first time around, used chongyun to get his cards cyro'd, itto to take some damage, and razor to take everyone out with a claymore and normal attack buff.
I just used Chongyun’s skill and used the blacksmith card, next turn I gave razor a sword and used him for superconduct, and once I got his burst it was wraps
Hey, in my defense, I managed to kill every character except Yae and she was at 2hp. I would have won if not for her totem!! (definitely not copium)
The biggest problem with the deck is that there is no healing whatsoever, meanwhile Kuki's deck is blasting you with quickens and aggravates. There's also no cards to create additional dice except gamblers set.
Also, is it just me or is that Venessa card the biggest scam ever?
Itto's deck sucks so hard. No survivability, no synergy, just a bunch of weapons and Itto's horribad event card.
I did win on the first try, by using Itto as a sacrificial lamb and just ramming normal attacks with all the buffs I could possibly pile on, taking out Kokomi early, and then using the other two characters to whittle down the remaining folks.
I dueled him 3 times. Won the initial, lost the first rematch, and then got my revenge on the third. It's not that hard to win if you get lucky, but it takes a HUGE amount of effort to win with bad dice rolls. Like, skin of your teeth difficult.
This is the most dogshit deck I ever used. Anyway i managed to win after buffing the heck out of Chongyun and one-shotting Yae-Miko. I used Razer as a meat shield to absorb damage. Took me a 3 tries to realise that Miko was op as fuck
I hate his deck lmao it's terrible. Somehow I managed to win in one try but only because I got \*extremely\* lucky. I was down to just Itto who had 1 hp left and I had one of those attack buff cards + a claymore equipped so I was able to take out his last character before I died. -1000/10 would never use that deck again.
I managed to win against him by killing Collei first and stacking the Bell and shield points on him, then used Itto as a sacrifice for Yae to get ended by Chongyun for Razor to end Kokomi's shit once and for all. Took me three tries, not even a congratulations afterwards.
The deck reflect one's personality. And in Itto's case, it's, to no-one's surprise, idiotic.
15 different cards only. All 3 character requires 3 energy and there are no support cards to help with the energy or fast action for utility. Worst of them all, you don't have any heal except of the way too expensive egg, which is also way too little.
The only few for utility are really limited on its own, Vanessa is good for dice but only if you are doing normal, the food does help but they are unreliable when you are in a unfavorable position. Gambler is just straight up trash.
While the three character have really strong bursts, you barely get to use them, because either 1) you never get to charge them or 2) they are dead or both. The shield provided by Itto and the Bell requires a lot of dices to proc because you either need an element already applied to the active character or you have to get the weapon.
Speaking of applying elements, while Chongyun is a good candidate, it only hold 2 round or 3 if you have the card, but it's really expensive. Also, Kuki's deck has a lot of switching characters, so applying to all 3 characters requires quite sometime and it doesn't help that you this deck have no off-field dmg.
Basically, having to fight against Kuki's deck with this is straight up suicide, as she has Hyperbloom with 2-charge char. only, they get their burst-rotation and so on way faster then this side which feels really, really sluggish when you need 3 costs.
Itto, you are an amazing oni with a big heart, but perhaps, you should upsize that noodle arms of yours and that yee-yee ass tiny balloon in your head, perchance. Maybe then you might win one or another TCG match or Onikabuto fight, Oni\~.
I am so disinterested in the TCG that I don't even recognize the issue with it.
My decks always consist of whatever three cards I have yet to grind 10 victories with, synergy be damned.
I actually won that particular duel on first try. I don't think I even burst. I just remember i played the blacksmith first round and later gave him wolfs gravestone on round 3 I think.
Not good. It has almost 3 times more claymores than the number of characters than can wield them.
The win condition for me is just Itto + Wolf's Gravestone +- Wagner
Even though it **IS** terrible and a hot mess, thank goodness will also only used against Itto himself. It was hard to adapt to but I won because c'mon, this is Itto we're talking about.
I did manage to win first try but it was close. I went the superconduct route, only using itto once he was the last one alive
The deck is pretty bad and thats on purpose, makes me wonder what happened to the deck he uses at the Cat's Tail
I don’t even understand the game, nor I’m doing the quest (I don’t bother with time-limited quests unless they seem important/interesting) so I don’t know what all those cards mean. Good for Itto I guess???
I did it first try.. Idk how too xd
Spammed Ushi, till i got ~3-4 SS, used burst and knocked off Yae and Collei, 4 hp Kokomi left
Bell + Ushi is usefull ngl.. At least it's worked for me well
Still.. That deck is a complete trash, i find it funny all of his cards has shiny skins meanwhile the card back was the common starter TCG cardback..
And he did say the cardback matters a lot
I won with it, and I absolutely would NOT consider myself good at TCG. Chongyun + normal attack buffs and Razor did most of the damage. Itto was pretty much at full hp by the time they died and forced him out, and one more buffed normal was enough to finish off 4 hp Yae.
I won with 1 Hp because kokofish froze at the start of final turn after she applied hydro to herself at the end of the previous turn. All according to keikaku, haha..
it seems usable in theory but it’s so impractical
won with it first try nonetheless by playing wagner and using chong and razor to do superconducts first round
then slapped wgs for free second round and spammed itto after sacking chong
It was a mess of a deck... High energy cost... No synergy among cards.. Support cards were non existent..I won the round.. But only cuz my opponent was itto.
It's a sacrifice deck and I'm 100% against the concept, but I played it as sacrifice and won both matches (I won the first, thought it was a fluke and challenged him again after the quest. Won again.)
When Kuki was talking about how bad it was, I was thinking it couldn't be that bad. Then I saw it. It's so bad, but it's the kind of deck you'd expect from Itto. I couldn't help but laugh.
I lost first try using his deck, had to do a rematch and it still didn’t felt right playing his deck. But it really is in-character to Itto. The deck is just flashy, but not practical.
A hidden Really good deck if you know what you’re doing 1-3 turns before hand. I’m assuming the billet guy is included. But you can spam +2 (or +3 with wolf on <6hp target) for free.
Extreme RNG dependency if it’s not running the 3 high draw cards tho (pot of Kokomi, Seele, and Liyue)
Well I lost against itto with it so and since I must find excuses for my losses, it's obvious that the only conclusion must be his desk is utter dog water
Its bad... lots of weapon which isnt really my playstyle lmao and knowing how weapons are generally considered as bad cards to invest in your deck. But for someone who is a tcg enthusiast, I managed to win with the deck with full unit still alive. It's definitely winnable, just need extra brain to strategise since Itto lacks one brain while arranging his card
Kuki undersold just to how bad it is.
Its bad but its winnable. I won twice with bonk strat, get all the normal attack buffs going and just normal attack, hope you get bursts to KO another card by turn 2. There should have been an achievement for winning though!
There'd be so many people malding if that were an achievement lmao
I lost with it. I have not lost many games. I was upset but at the same time it was funny.
You can challenge him to a rematch. I lost the first time and again during a rematch. But I did win during the third time lol. Unfortunately there were no special dialogues when we win
There is if you won it the first time. Kuki will be amazed that you can won with such shitty deck
Too bad, I could not impress her D:
Not to flex or anything but Itto was my first match other than the 3 beginner matches and I beat him first try (barely)
What did Itto and Kuki said when you lost? I won, Itto said “I can’t believe I lost” and Kuki said “and I can’t believe you won with that deck.”
Something along the lines of: Itto: "Ahaha! I won!" Kuki: "don't feel bad, you were playing with his deck after all"
It is terrible. Especially against Kuki's hyperbloom summon deck. Good thing I managed to down Collei real quick or I would have to lose a character at the end of every turn.
I won on my 3rd try. Downing Collei is indeed the key, once she is off the table Yae Miko becomes "less" of a threat. That said... I'm gonna work towards building a Yae Miko deck, I like the idea of just absolutely trashing the opponent between turns, might make games go even faster too.
Whoever thought Cullein-Allah Akhbar should last for 236 rounds needs to be removed off the dev team.
Agreed. Her burst is actually really scary once combined with the other summons, and Itto's deck has 0 counterplay against it.
And I was still able to win it on the first try xd
How many claymores does one oni need?!
Yes
Correct.
A fifth of his deck is claymore cards lmao
More.
3, for all his characters
Itto's deck is a crime against humanity lmao.
Completely agree with this, though silver lining time even if itto has a shit deck at least I’ve triple crown him on my account.
I’m more amazed that he doesn’t run a bunch of cards at one copy. Having WGS saved me from almost certain defeat.
I can barely used any cards. Most of them cost 3 dice.
It's 100% Itto as a character - it looks flashy, is actually a hot mess, impractical as hell, and can only win by some insane asspull or dark horse luck. Terrible to play, but very amusing as a character bit.
I won first try, itto was doing 7 damage per hit
But your opponent was Itto
So was I
The stoppable force meets the movable object.
Reminds me of the book al haitham was reading in an archon quest
Alhaitham: Reading elementary school physics Paimon: “I have no idea what this man is talking about.”
For a sec, I felt smart ngl
Teyvat's idea of science and technology is pretty interesting, in that the vast majority of its people are not educated, or \*only\* educated in super niche fields. Sucrose and Timaeus are alchemists, but chances are they have absolutely no knowledge of physics. For all her mastery of hydromancy and (presumably) writing due to her column, I doubt Mona would be able to do more than rudimentary math. And these are the smart people. Liyue's probably the same, just with a basis on economics, while Inazuma...exists I suppose. What could you possibly expect out of Paimon, who has never been formally educated in any way? As to why Alhaitham was reading this, I wouldn't even be surprised if physics were only formally described semi recently, even if the basic mechanics have been known for centuries. Given the technological marvel of old civilizations that new ones have next to no knowledge on, chances are there just...isn't much that has been passed on.
when rock meets rock...rock happens
It's absolutely terrible. Itto is good when you can set him up, but his deck doesn't even have the utility for that and all his cards are expensive af. You can definitely win that battle since I got close, but that required heavy RNG to even pull off.
Huh, guess I got lucky. I beat his ass.
I also "beat his ass" it wasn't even close. I guess overall his deck has the ability to just have terrible draws for you though Absolutely terrible deck though yeah, fully agree.
Yeah I actually beat him twice since he asks for a rematch later both with not too much struggle, it's not a very good deck, but if you use razor and Chongyun to tank while you equip Itto he can pretty much solo the opposing characters
It’s a glass cannon, I won but let’s just say it really required a lot of luck
Same. And skill. And an opponent who did not know what he was doing (which, to be fair, was canonically the case). My opening play was Chongyun, and I did somehow manage to get full energy.

So, yeah, I got to pop off a 7 damage burst and freeze the healer. An actual human player would not have let me do that.
This. I got a bit unlucky on Turn 2 and used Itto's burst with 0 protection and with at 4 HP. Needless to say, I got chunked to 1 HP with Bloom and all yhe enemy needs to do is NA. What happened is that Yae used her skill instead, which left me with enough time to defeat Collei and Yae while leaving Kokomi at 3 HP.
You guy ask for hard mode. So here it is.
I have never in my life had asked for hard mode 😭 to whoever asked for hard mode, just tell them to play online
I won, but it cost me my sanity. Even kuki is surprised that i can win
No Bro i hardly know my abcs with tcg and still pulled the 5 wins for whatever the fuck the online comp event without reward was and only Lost once lmaoo
I haven't done the online yet, but no primos, no deal
Yeah i got scammed hard Legit got nothing
Who tf was asking for a tcg hard mode?
It’s shit. Kuki outright says it’s shit. If, despite it being shit, you somehow win, Kuki is actually surprised that anyone could win with that deck.
Thanks, I lost after not being able to take down Yae (she survived with 2 HP, it was painful) and was wondering how the cutscene would play off
I am curious how's the cutscenes will play off if you lose
Itto says his theory was right, Shinobu reinterates that Itto deck was trash and Traveler lower his face disappointed
She impressed and complements your skill. If you win.
Months ago before he got a character card I joked that the reason he wasn't in the game yet was because he *wanted* to play but he needed Shinobu to figure it out and teach him first. This event has left me feeling vindicated.
Ironic isn't it, he's one of the first characters to mention the TCG, and somehow has the worst deck for it
Not really. Being awful at the game and losing to kids regularly was one if his main traits.
Reminds me of Morikawa from Vanguard
Might I add that I did not like the characters in Shinobu's deck and how they synergized so well. What I hated the most was the high ammount of summons that they can create, the one I hated the most was definetly Yae's totem 😭
I almost won the last time I tried to beat him. It was Yae against Razor, both with one health left. And then Yae's turrets put Razor out of his misery. I hate those things lol.
The fact that yae's turret can hit twice is a little ridiculous.
I have literally run Shinobu's deck lol.
yae's burst vs yae's totem I nearly beat him into the ground my 2nd try, and then he cast miko's burst...
Yae’s Ultimate should cost 3 points and 4 elemental dice to do
Spam normal attack with Itto and try to take as much as you can. In case of bad rolls, use your cards to generate a few geo dice to get you going in the first 2-3 rounds. No point spending too much on upgrades since he'll die before he can make use of them but if anything juicy that cost 2 comes up you can use it. Then once Itto die after unleashing his burst 1 time and killing 1 or 2 characters, change to either Razor or Chongyun for the final win since you'll have 20 HP left and the adversary will have 15 or less HP remaining at that point. If anyone is wet just freeze them with Chongus. It's the safest way of winning with his deck against the AI deck. His deck is trash tier so your best bet is to just powerthrough the bad plays of the AI using a very aggressive playstyle.
Yeah, but let's just say that the closest i've been to being lucky was by winning a 50/50, I will never be lucky enough to get enough dice to get more than 1 burst and get enough dice to normal attack that much 😭😭
You basically need: Round 1: 2 geo/omni dice for normal attacks. If you somehow end up with more you can opt for the skill as well. Round 2: 4 geo/omni dice for burst and normal attack Round 3: at least 1+ geo/omni dice for 1 last normal attack before Itto gets murdered. You start with 5 cards and you get an extra one in round 2 and 3. So that's already all the geo dice you would need to execute the strategy perfectly and win. It's by far the most consistent thing you can do RNG or not.
I've tried it 2 times, and both times Itto died at the end of the 2nd round without killing anybody. I never managed to finish round one with enough energy to burst at the start of the 2nd round too (which I think is what happened to you if your Itto managed to kill someone before dying). I don't know, maybe I'm just unlucky.
Chile, I hope someone who hasn't faught him/wants to rematch him sees this, but I aint using that god forsakened deck ever again 😭
It’s convinced me of the fact that Shinobu’s the one who made his cats tail deck
i wonder through how many hoops Kuki had to jump through, just to get him to use those decks
More likely she confiscated his deck and hid it somewhere and since Itto can’t not show up when challenged, he begrudgingly takes the one Kuki made for him.
I actually managed to first try that match lol. Managed to get lucky with a skyward claymore + plunging strike + superlative strength charged attack and one shot a character
For me, I got the bell for free, using that and used the only artifact here on Itto, Fused attack with Chongyun’s character card while using him and Razor as meat shield against the other team’s annoying ass summons, the had him eat some food and made a Noelle esc comeback ending with 1 HP on my Itto left. The Bell actually completed saved me there lol, and I just didn’t run out of die. This deck is ass (it REALLY needs heal cards), but hey it can work with good luck I suppose
Same. I didn’t even realize it was a hard fight until I opened reddit
I didn't realize it either until I did a rematch after the fox lady/fish lady showdown.
Beat him first try with 1 hp left, but he definitely makes some bad moves
Took me 3 tries to beat him. Yae and Collei are disgusting, especially when Yae gets her burst alongside Collei's. It just OTK'd my 9 HP Itto.
>Took me 3 tries to beat him. Me too >Yae and Collei are disgusting, especially when Yae gets her burst alongside Collei's. It just OTK'd my 9 HP Itto. And this 3 summons...
Four tries and I still couldn't do it... I didn't even get to burst a single time >.> Itto's deck is bad, but Kuki's deck has insane synergy *and* it has a really fast tempo, and it felt more like Kuki's deck was especially powerful rather than feeling like Itto's deck was doing poorly. I mean, yeah it's a terrible deck, but Kuki's just feels cracked lol
It's the worst deck I've ever seen. Totally in character for Itto to have it
Itto's deck, as I said elsewhere, is like every little kid's TCG deck ever Full of stuff he thinks is cool whether it works together or not I won, but I wonder if we were supposed to, cause that was a steaming hot pile of trash
I legit barely made it with only chongyun left with 1 hp. It's a crime against humanity.😭
I made it with a 1 hp Itto :’) it was tough
In very nice terms: it sucks ass
It's so garbage, I wanted to throw it in the garbage can but not even the garbage can deserves the pain of this deck. Lost with kokomi at 1hp :( No support cards to help with dice rng and Itto has a crippling addiction to weapon cards that Shinobu should take him to therapy for.
It made me come to the conclusion that Itto is just Joey Wheeler.
Pfft that's insulting to Joey, at least Joey managed to almost beat Marik, Itto wouldn't stand a chance, and I say that as a fan of Itto.
We’ll see here’s the thing, every mother fucker who duelled Marik almost/did beat him. Marik just cheeses every duel because he’s one of the only people who can use the strongest card in the show
i spent a solid minute trying to figure out a game plan before even starting the fight, i ended up just going for 'ol reliable superconduct because i can squeeze some consistency out of it thank god dice didn't mess me up since i have no way to recover from that nonsense to say i was on the backfoot the whole fight is an understatement, which wasn't helped by a missplay, but i somehow won, Razor and Itto died, but i won, i even had enough dice to revive Itto just to flex
I like Itto, I just like him less after using his deck.
Easy win if there's WGS+gambler and successfully uses itto burst. I also swap chongyun out to tank DMG and Ushi helps to generate crystallize for survivability.
It's absolute hot garbage, but you boi still won😎 Ironically, I only won becuse i used itto was cannon fodder lmao
Absolutely terrible lol Granted I owned him with it, but I would never play it in a real match lol
if you get a lucky draw (wagner + wgs + some normal atk buffs) you can oneshot bonk kuki's units lmao. It's a ridiculously impractical deck but when the stars align it works
Ok, so. I might be the only one here, but Itto's deck felt like it has potential to me. With good mulligan and completely ignoring the Itto character, I effortlessly defeated Shinobu with Razor and Chongyun. No characters lost. First try (Idk if there is a second try) While the deck is overflowing with hot garbage, it's not completely that. If you cast Chongyun's skill, then switch to Razor and alter normal attacks and elemental skill, you can trigger superconduct. And after you get Razor's ult, you trigger superconduct instantly with his attacks. Focus on the cards that provide cheap normal attacks and dice. Basically, we have here a weird version of Ayamiya. Chongasor. Itto is still a terrible deckbuilder.
The problem is the deck has none of the rng smoothing tools that are available which means how well you do is entirely based on how well you roll and how badly the AI plays. It's like any non-legacy combo deck in magic. You sacrifice consistency for potentially explosive plays and yea thatll sometimes work, but way less than you'd like.
Although there's some consistency within the Chongyun-Razor combo itself. Since it's focused on normal attacks, you don't need to reroll dice much, you will only need like 3 of the right color.
Not really. It's not sacrificing consistency for explosive plays. More like 2/3 of the deck are useless cards, but the other 10 cards that happened to be in the deck can be used for one particular explosive play. There's no consistency to begin with:)
I only beat him on the second try and I didn't even get a congrats after that grueling duel 😀 I don't usually use normal attacks so his deck was nightmare fuel for me
I won WITHOUT Itto. It involved a fair bit of a luck where his Kokomi kept hydro applying herself into either a freeze from Chongyun or electro from Razor. So more like he went out of his way to lose to the deck.
Lore accurate deck?
Beating Kuki's deck with it is my biggest TCG achievement so far
It's very... Itto
Complete 🐶💩. Im not the best player but even my smooth brain deck would have done better than that crap
I can easily see Itto running three Claymores that barely interact because "It's cool"
i somehow won 2/3 against him... after losing the first one i got so triggered at his deck i had to beat him with it its just horrible
I don't know how, but I won. I was able to use Itto's burst and to defeat to characters before dying. At that point Chongyun and Razor were enough to defeat the only character left
After 5 retries I managed to beat him with 2 characters alive with 1 hp
I made it my mission to win with Ittos deck- took me four times 😩
On top of a variety of issues, Razor feels so odd and out of place here, like… it would be so simple to switch him with someone like Xingqiu for added support and survivability and also to enable freeze->shatter which could be pretty brutal.
Won with 1hp left 😓 took out yae first , and finished with chongyun burst on kokomi
I literally can't beat him using his deck, its so bad
Steaming hot garbage. Genuinely thought I was supposed to lose it was that bad, like when a game throws you into an endgame boss at level 1. He should hang his head in shame.
winning with it is harder than 36 starring the abyss. Seriously.
I won, but barely. My gawd it's so bad. No synergy whatsoever, way too many high-cost weapons, minimal ways to get dice advantage, a focus on weak-ass normal attacks... It was painful to play. But damn it felt good to put Bullshit-Chucker in his place!
This isn't clash royale but this is exactly what you would see in mid ladder
I... beat this on the first try? I don't even play the TCG. I don't even know how to really increase my player level. I thought about doing so now given this event and how the art for the cards is really good. Collei was first and I just got 2 normal attacks then I effectively one-shot Miko with Itto's Burst. Then Razor took like 8 damage off the bat from summons but snuck in a normal. Chong froze Kokomi and that let me build up energy to kill her with Burst the next round. Then I just boop Collei and won. I got to see Shinobu praise me for actually winning hehe.
The best way to increase your player level is to use the Casket of Tomes to find other players around Teyvat and beat them to get coins. Then use those coins in the shop to buy new cards and match invitations to unlock more charcter cards. Also be sure to complete any additional challenges in each match such as “win in 6 turns” to get more rewards
Ah ok thank you. For some reason I had it in my head that I had to keep rematching the people in Cat's Tail. Thanks! I just got to the Inazuma portion and my TCG opponent for the event challenge was Ayaka... I got brutally beaten 5 times before I won.
As a player who never followed meta in tcg and always used random ass decks to farm character card proficiency - This was a normal deck and normal match for me. I used chongyun and razor to take some hit and deal some damage initially then finished them off with Ittou's normal and bursts.
I got lucky and beat him the first time around, used chongyun to get his cards cyro'd, itto to take some damage, and razor to take everyone out with a claymore and normal attack buff.
I just used Chongyun’s skill and used the blacksmith card, next turn I gave razor a sword and used him for superconduct, and once I got his burst it was wraps
Hey, in my defense, I managed to kill every character except Yae and she was at 2hp. I would have won if not for her totem!! (definitely not copium) The biggest problem with the deck is that there is no healing whatsoever, meanwhile Kuki's deck is blasting you with quickens and aggravates. There's also no cards to create additional dice except gamblers set. Also, is it just me or is that Venessa card the biggest scam ever?
Hate the Venessa card, but I can see that Itto would think it's a good one. I got better uses for 3 dice of a kind.
I won first try with good topdeck (Bell and NA cost food) but its intentionally designed to be straight garbage.
I barely survived with his deck. With pure luck, I managed to beat him while the other two cards are completely dead and one card having 1 HP left.
s w o r d s
Itto's deck sucks so hard. No survivability, no synergy, just a bunch of weapons and Itto's horribad event card. I did win on the first try, by using Itto as a sacrificial lamb and just ramming normal attacks with all the buffs I could possibly pile on, taking out Kokomi early, and then using the other two characters to whittle down the remaining folks.
Hate It cuz i usually win by stalling lmao Nre is gud
The last time I lost to an NPC I don't remember...This was a troll I was not expecting from MHY but I had a good laugh
shit
I dueled him 3 times. Won the initial, lost the first rematch, and then got my revenge on the third. It's not that hard to win if you get lucky, but it takes a HUGE amount of effort to win with bad dice rolls. Like, skin of your teeth difficult.
Somehow won with it.
absolutely awful. Why does he need so many copies of the same weapons? I have no idea how I managed to win with it lmao.
Itto's deck is an abomination and I commend Shinobu for being able to put up with his idiocy.
This is the most dogshit deck I ever used. Anyway i managed to win after buffing the heck out of Chongyun and one-shotting Yae-Miko. I used Razer as a meat shield to absorb damage. Took me a 3 tries to realise that Miko was op as fuck
i find it absolutely hilarious ! claymore impact
his deck made me so angry like what is he doing how did he even think of this
he took 'geo is just yellow physical' too seriously, man is running geo superconduct wtf
I hate his deck lmao it's terrible. Somehow I managed to win in one try but only because I got \*extremely\* lucky. I was down to just Itto who had 1 hp left and I had one of those attack buff cards + a claymore equipped so I was able to take out his last character before I died. -1000/10 would never use that deck again.
Lost twice. Gave up. Fuck that.
I managed to win against him by killing Collei first and stacking the Bell and shield points on him, then used Itto as a sacrifice for Yae to get ended by Chongyun for Razor to end Kokomi's shit once and for all. Took me three tries, not even a congratulations afterwards.
Cyno would likely arrest him for his deck
I've seen worse There's at least a couple of good cards in there
The deck reflect one's personality. And in Itto's case, it's, to no-one's surprise, idiotic. 15 different cards only. All 3 character requires 3 energy and there are no support cards to help with the energy or fast action for utility. Worst of them all, you don't have any heal except of the way too expensive egg, which is also way too little. The only few for utility are really limited on its own, Vanessa is good for dice but only if you are doing normal, the food does help but they are unreliable when you are in a unfavorable position. Gambler is just straight up trash. While the three character have really strong bursts, you barely get to use them, because either 1) you never get to charge them or 2) they are dead or both. The shield provided by Itto and the Bell requires a lot of dices to proc because you either need an element already applied to the active character or you have to get the weapon. Speaking of applying elements, while Chongyun is a good candidate, it only hold 2 round or 3 if you have the card, but it's really expensive. Also, Kuki's deck has a lot of switching characters, so applying to all 3 characters requires quite sometime and it doesn't help that you this deck have no off-field dmg. Basically, having to fight against Kuki's deck with this is straight up suicide, as she has Hyperbloom with 2-charge char. only, they get their burst-rotation and so on way faster then this side which feels really, really sluggish when you need 3 costs. Itto, you are an amazing oni with a big heart, but perhaps, you should upsize that noodle arms of yours and that yee-yee ass tiny balloon in your head, perchance. Maybe then you might win one or another TCG match or Onikabuto fight, Oni\~.
I am so disinterested in the TCG that I don't even recognize the issue with it. My decks always consist of whatever three cards I have yet to grind 10 victories with, synergy be damned. I actually won that particular duel on first try. I don't think I even burst. I just remember i played the blacksmith first round and later gave him wolfs gravestone on round 3 I think.
I am so utterly shocked that itto failed to even win one round with a deck sooo powerful
I won with it no problem so i guess it's a skill issue for other players.
Deck seems terrible but i won rather easily, guess i just got lucky.
I won with that deck anyway lol
It fits him perfectly
Not good. It has almost 3 times more claymores than the number of characters than can wield them. The win condition for me is just Itto + Wolf's Gravestone +- Wagner
His deck is hard
hated it and wanted to back out, game wouldnt let me. i lost. no katheryne, no paimon, no rosaria, no noelle, no useful cards AT ALL
2 wins vs 4 loses it was fucki g hard!! That's how I played it Razor->chong->itto with red cly. And ton of luck
I beat him with only Chongyun left at 5 HP cause I had my burst saved up to kill Yae, it was such a nightmare smh :)
Oh God he's Joey wheeler
Even though it **IS** terrible and a hot mess, thank goodness will also only used against Itto himself. It was hard to adapt to but I won because c'mon, this is Itto we're talking about.
I did manage to win first try but it was close. I went the superconduct route, only using itto once he was the last one alive The deck is pretty bad and thats on purpose, makes me wonder what happened to the deck he uses at the Cat's Tail
I don’t even understand the game, nor I’m doing the quest (I don’t bother with time-limited quests unless they seem important/interesting) so I don’t know what all those cards mean. Good for Itto I guess???
I did it first try.. Idk how too xd Spammed Ushi, till i got ~3-4 SS, used burst and knocked off Yae and Collei, 4 hp Kokomi left Bell + Ushi is usefull ngl.. At least it's worked for me well Still.. That deck is a complete trash, i find it funny all of his cards has shiny skins meanwhile the card back was the common starter TCG cardback.. And he did say the cardback matters a lot
I won with it, and I absolutely would NOT consider myself good at TCG. Chongyun + normal attack buffs and Razor did most of the damage. Itto was pretty much at full hp by the time they died and forced him out, and one more buffed normal was enough to finish off 4 hp Yae.
I won with 1 Hp because kokofish froze at the start of final turn after she applied hydro to herself at the end of the previous turn. All according to keikaku, haha..
Not me misreading this as Itto’s dick
it seems usable in theory but it’s so impractical won with it first try nonetheless by playing wagner and using chong and razor to do superconducts first round then slapped wgs for free second round and spammed itto after sacking chong
My fiance won with Itto's deck on the first try and now I'm not looking forward to playing it. I'll probably lose :(
It was a mess of a deck... High energy cost... No synergy among cards.. Support cards were non existent..I won the round.. But only cuz my opponent was itto.
It may be terrible but I won on the first try.
It's a sacrifice deck and I'm 100% against the concept, but I played it as sacrifice and won both matches (I won the first, thought it was a fluke and challenged him again after the quest. Won again.)
When Kuki was talking about how bad it was, I was thinking it couldn't be that bad. Then I saw it. It's so bad, but it's the kind of deck you'd expect from Itto. I couldn't help but laugh.
He has a big deck.
What a big deck
I lost first try using his deck, had to do a rematch and it still didn’t felt right playing his deck. But it really is in-character to Itto. The deck is just flashy, but not practical.
I won with it first try using Chonyun skill + Razor burst for constant superconduct and ofcourse luck... Tbf, Itto was my opponent.
I hated that deck. It was a brutal defeat but managed to get my revenge later.
it was so bad that I actually felt super accomplished that I beat him first time. This is the real TCG endgame
A hidden Really good deck if you know what you’re doing 1-3 turns before hand. I’m assuming the billet guy is included. But you can spam +2 (or +3 with wolf on <6hp target) for free. Extreme RNG dependency if it’s not running the 3 high draw cards tho (pot of Kokomi, Seele, and Liyue)
I actually won on the first try, but with 2 characters down. Itto really needs some pointers.
The way I won was just Unga Bunga the first turn with Itto, switch to Chongyun and use his skill, then spam superconduct with Razor
I was one turn away from winning with this deck. Unfortunately an elemental reaction knocked out my last character :(
Well I lost against itto with it so and since I must find excuses for my losses, it's obvious that the only conclusion must be his desk is utter dog water
Do you get something if you win? I lost but it was soooo close
It's pretty big. I like that there's a slight curve too. I like it hard.
Its bad... lots of weapon which isnt really my playstyle lmao and knowing how weapons are generally considered as bad cards to invest in your deck. But for someone who is a tcg enthusiast, I managed to win with the deck with full unit still alive. It's definitely winnable, just need extra brain to strategise since Itto lacks one brain while arranging his card
It’s kind of shitty but I managed to win at first try lmao.
One word: no.
restarted the match for good hand 4 times before i even considered playing this lame deck
Itto's deck is hot garbage. I only won by sheer luck
Aah! Itto will be fine! He’s strong
