Genius Invokation: Meta Deck vs random NPC cards (Genshin Impact TCG)



I wish I streamed that match because it made me lough quite a lot. The audio is a bit weird becuase my opponent was taking 25 minutes for each move, so I had to speed up the video by a gozillion%.
While I’m really enjoying Genius Invokation, I’m noticing an annoying trend of AYAKA-YOI being 75% of the matches. In a game mode that is made for fun, I wish more people were willing to experiment with fun decks rather than go for mEtA comps (and lose to Lawachurl/Maiden/Oceanid).

  2. So either the other person was functioning half awake or they were brainstorming what the hell they should do when the game is clearly completely on your side (potentially pissed too since they had a meta deck and you didn't? 👀)

  3. Many people have been asking for a deck list: https://imgur.com/a/1w0jWgL
    This is the list I'm using right now and there may be a couple of small differences compared to the deck in this video. Please keep in mind this deck was made just because I wanted to try some new cards that we just unlocked this week or that were unplayable before (the Abyss Summon). If you use your starting resources to build this deck and use it in pvp to grind achievements, you're going to get my respect but you probably won't be having an easy time.

  4. The "Meta" Deck seems to be as much as other Decks, they are just all round like many others, and also like other good decks, have strength but also weakness.

    I never lose to that Meta Deck before too, usually only take a short while for them to start crumble.

    Too slow, enough that having multiple heavy hitting characters and 2 energy-cost high damage character, especially double Geo with 1 non-Geo heavy attacker can bully them quite easily.
    Mirror Maiden's Mirror Cage to discourage switching with a debuff that increase switching dice cost, it may even outright corner Ganyu from trying to use Frostflake too.

    By the time they're ready, most of them will already be at low health or one of the characters get kill before their combo even start.

    Most of the decks have strength and fetal weaknesses, you will find an opponent deck that can hard counter your deck at some point.
    Even my deck can be countered, they may have no issue against Dendro/Electro decks, but my deck have issue against Dendro/Electro decks. On the other hands, I have no issue dealing with that meta deck.

  5. It's too early to tell what the real meta is. People are gravitating towards that deck because a few content creators said it was good, and then there's the snowball effects of people assuming the most popular deck is the best one.

    That, and even a meta deck in the wrong hands isn't an instant win. Even if this a meta deck, they can still lose due to incompetence and bad luck.

  6. There's no meta in TCG, every team and cards can perform outstanding, it's all depend on RNG, that's why it's so much fun. Say you have insane supports card but it didn't come to you, and when it comes you don't have the right dice, it could happen. xingqiu and ayaka is really a deadly combo if u get your cards and dice right. And i met a full summon team and have that two xiao cards on my deck, but that cards almost never shown, and when it does, it comes in a bad timing because it needs a fricking 4 dice to activate. That's why TCG is so fun and frustrating at the same time. It's fun because i think it's so balanced, and anyone can get any card they wanted, yet it's so frustrating when we can't do anything while waiting the opponent do their move. At least, enable chat menu so we can chat with friends, but idk about enabling chat between battle, i figure there's always toxic people. So i am okay with it disabled

  7. I have ayaka and yoimiya but i dont use them in the same deck, not yet atleast, but im trying out a bunch of stuff. I tried the full npc team today too, it turned out better than i thought. But i had fun with my geo team plus xingqiu too. My main team definitely has to be my keqing tesm though, which i want to clarify that i got working and used before the "meta" was made. I loved keqing and got her first, collei too since i loved her too, at first i had mona but then learned of electro resonance, so frick yeh i get to use fischl too. Team name MyFaves, and probably will stay my main team still making it better by the day with all that I'm learning from other people of what cards to use

  8. Ayamiya deck rely so much on Yoimiya burst, if you kill her 1st, you effectively stop the entire deck mechanic. Some people would straight up give up when you kill Yoimiya before she can burst lol
