i dont like the false gods period. if you ask me, they should be removed. but that may just be my bias speaking. zanz nerfed sundial for a reason, the false gods were too easy. this will make them easier than they are now.
i admit, it would be a little fun to pound a few of the false gods into the ground every once in a while, but ultimately, it will just be for fun. i, for one, play the game for fun, and every once in a while i will do exactly what i hate (farming) for special events in forums. but the majority of players out there play not for fun, but to show people that they are good at it, which is basically just a "mine's better" competition. which will only get stronger if this is implemented

Thing is though it doesn't make the FG's easier per se. It only makes the one matchup the oracle tells you about easier. And the majority of players farm FG's not for score but so they can get upgraded cards and monies. I mean isn't that really the goal of the game? For people to want to get more cards to make more decks?

This game certainly is a grind and a lot of us are goal oriented in some way (score, cards, etc). Letting people choose FG's in the trainer certainly is not game-breaking at all. Isn't the idea of the trainer to be able to test out decks and to see how they work? It really just makes it easier for people to fine-tune their FG decks. With so many different FG's (24 currently) and i'm sure more on the horizon trudging through the trainer trying to find 1 of them really is a pain. Like i said i don't use the trainer much so this doesn't really affect me at all but it just seems like a good idea.

I actually spend more time on this forum than the game itself.  I'd call myself a casual player - each day I spin the Oracle and do anywhere from one to ten false god fights.  Today I haven't done any, since the Oracle didn't tell me which I'm facing and I'm not in the mood.  Maybe later tonight, who knows.

Personally, I don't care about this feature even though I voted yes; since I go by the wiki's false god deck lists and design my own antis when I want (or just run my rainbow if I know it'll be an easy one), I don't really need to test any decks.

I just thought of this, but instead of letting you decide which false god to fight, maybe the trainer should allow you to paste the deck code that you want to face.  Maybe give to option to have 2 copies of the cards (like the false gods have)?  Then you could essentially choose your false god, but also test decks when designing new false gods...

i love this idea, it would seriously help out the elemental tournies. i find myself trying to find weaknesses in other elements, but i keep coming short when i dont face that element.

lol... i just finished half of trial phase 1 (false god deck), and was about to make a thread like this.

well, guess there were a lot more people complaining about this than i had expected.



anyways, i totally have to agree on this.

people would love to test their decks not against easy gods, but also extremely hard gods to make the deck more useful.

also it helps in stuff like master trials phase 1, where we have to defeat any twelve false gods.

The Trainer is a place for one to test how well certain cards combinations would perform. That's why there's the option to get every card and a shitload of money. I think it's an improvement to be able to choose wich FG to face and test a certain deck. In the real game you won't know (99,9% of the time) wich god you're facing, and therefore it doesn't "steal away" the grace of how challenging the FG are.

By the way, i got a score of -690 until i could finally face Eternal Phoenix to try something out...

It is super hard to press Quest, then False God, then quit. That is why it should be added. [/sarcasm]

Except that with 20+ gods, you have less than 5% chance to get the god you want.

I see no reason to not do this. This way you can fight the FG you want instead of pressing the button over and over until Rainbow or some-other shows up. This would also be useful for "training" to fight the FG predicted by the Oracle.
