Yeah there's a lot of minigames which didn't need to be as hard as this lol. I loved queen's blood but didn't like these challenges. You are welcome dude!
@@fenrir_Lokison9I agree and the only reason those were harder this time around was because the haptic controllers. It wore out my fingers faster than the old challenges on the ps4 (and ps5 port.) They definitely did way too many mini games this time around which extended the length of the game than it needed. Hopefully the 3rd part reduces it down and focuses more on the story.
RNG vomits on my dreams. I got poor cards. Yet somehow I passed this survival challenge. I'm just glad Square Enix isn't insane enough to force you to get 100 points for the trophy. Thank you very much for this guide!
No cause since we earn bronze that will suffice for the johnny collection item, still very tough challenge tho@@guchi8884

This deck and strategy was beyond helpful, I was dreading doing this match, but was able pull it off first try 97-57 thanks to all the tips and the RNG gods!
Great deck, man! I built this deck and watched your opening 2 drops in round one. Decided to try the rest on my own and won with 118 points. Thanks for your work! 🍻
Had tremendous amount of trouble trying to tackle this but your strat helped me out so much! It took me a few tries but each time I was getting closer and closer. Second to the last time I ended up with a tie. But with a little bit of good luck with RNG going in my favour, I ended up with a victory! Thanks a bunch!
The physical pain this caused me... it took a few rounds, and I was missing one of the cards you recommended, but your strat helped so much. You deserve a sainthood or equivalent.
Haha thank you happy I could help, these challenges were such a pain in the butt, thing is though there's much harder stuff if you are going for the platinum sadly...
amazing deck build, was getting dusted the first couple rounds but saving up your suggested card for the final round helped me catch up and beat it first try! thank you sm !
Haha thank you, they definitely arent easy, its like anything you go in with a set strategy you can usually do it alright, il be making a few more guides for the other mini games/ vr challenges so hopefully they will be helpful too!
There’s a cheese method going all in on round 3 and getting 120ish points with your full 15 deck. A little of RNG required in terms of what the ai plays but the setup is extremely consistent because you draw your full deck by round 3, and round 3 has a wall of chests protecting you You basically run 2 tonberries, 2 skeeskee, 1 mindflayer, all the token generating cards, a chocobo racer and tifa. You’ll have all 15 in your deck on round 3 and if you do the full combo right, you’ll get 130 ish points. And completely surrendering round 1, 2 and 5 (apart from ditching any cactuar cards you have), the ai normally gets around 100 points.
What do you mean token generating cards? Is there video or Reddit thread covering this method you’re referring to? I’ve already beat it but I would like to get gold/ 100 point win & that method sounds interesting.
@@Modioman69I think they mean cards like heatseeker, mandragora, Moogle trio, and j-squad. Cards that create other cards in your hand or battlefield, aka tokens (since they were generated by an effect)
Either I'm doing something wrong or RNG is really screwing me over because whatever I try in round 3 they always play the cactuar that takes over the spots on my side of the chests 😅
Whew! Thanks for this. I was so over all this bullshit. My RNG was pretty shit, but I managed to get a final card play that completely turned the tables in my favor and got me to 116. Aside from a ton of resets for a better starting hand, managed to get it on my second full run
Thank you for this!👍I won several times using your deck, my maximum points were 129 (at the end of the final round I replaced the queen with Chadley which gave me a massive boost).
Thanks, this helped me beat it! I could beat all the other queens blood challenges on my own, but I got exhausted trying to do this last one. Glad I found your video!
I love Queen's Blood, think its a fascinating card game but a few of the Golden Saucer challenges were driving me nuts and this helped me get through Nightmare in one go so thank you for the guide!
I f love you man Followed your guides for the legendary challenged, and now this was my last for the platinum. Lost like 3 times with so much points behind but I just got a lot more, finishing with 120 I really appreciate all the help, thanks a lot
Just won with a score 114-45 thanks to this guide. Was able to do with only 14/15 of the cards in the deck list too. Don’t have access to the one postgame card so I used a Grangalan in its place.
I can't believe it, I won first try! Thank you! Won with 108 vs 83 points. I had mostly different cards in my last round, no Chimera and no Rictus. I had to improvise here but I already amassed over 80 points in the first four rounds so everything turned out well in the end!
THANK YOU so much! I was missing 3 cards in this deck and was still able to win 79 to 47. And I went into round 5 with 6 cards and could only play three.
Got it my first try! Went into the last round with 91 points and only got 2 points the last round. Lucked out, held onto the emerald queen the whole time.
First attempt with this method thank you very much.. I was quite a way behind in round 4 and almost restarted. But I pressed on and managed to get some really lucky blocks in to protect lots of empty powered up saces and Shiva came in clutch for me. Keep at it folks
I comment cuz this was very stupidly funny. After rerolling the cards for 10-15 minutes to get a good starting hand, and following the guide for another 10-15 minutes, I reached the final round. Instead of placing the Shadowblood Queen, I placed a cactuar, and lost the challenge by 5 points. kms Update: I got it! Great guide from beginning to end! Thanks you!!!
Not sure. Other Mini games, the VR Missions, and Hard Mode may be too much of a challenge for me. I'm not going to stress over it if that is the case. @@Solestro
Thanks for this guide. I was having trouble with the challenge even with the guide, but i switched jabberwock to a second chimera and got it on my first try.
Woooo nice, thankfully it's the last queen's blood thing you need to do lol. Just all the other super hard tasks to do now including the combat trials.
You are a lifesaver!! I didn’t have 4 cards that you did in your deck so I used some others and applied your strat as close as I could, got it on the 2nd try!!
FYI, Shiva doesn't spawn random ice cards, points are based on the rank of the square, 2 4 and 6 for rank 1 2 and 3 respectively And also, carrying too many cards into round 5 is kinda pointless since chances are you won't be able to play it, so might as well use it to rack more points from previous rounds
I won! 88-60. Dude you have no idea how many times I rewatched this video. I'd try and get the same deck as you and follow along, placing my cards wherever you did, and then by Round 4 or 5 the enemy AI would go all out and I'd lose, so I'd restart the round and restart your video... But I finally won, and I got the trophy for 5 Star Hotel (I wasn't aiming for 7) THANKS SO MUCH!
I wouldn't recommend going for the 7 star hotel trophy lol. It's 100% not worth it the VR missions almost made me go bald 😂 happy you managed to get past this though it can be so annoying.
Holy crap I know so much of it is luck, but I won with a score of 101 on my first try with this video. I actually had WAY more trouble with the Extreme challenge. Thank you so much!!!
you are a legend. i kept restarting until i got your starting hand and ended up winning 103 points so got the gold straight away! Thank you! this was thw only queen's blood challenge in the entire game i couldn't do without help. Really loved this mini game and the queens blood story arc was brilliant. Thanks again
@@Solestro i wanted to go for the platinum so i did every hard mode mini game and got the highest ranking but instead of feeling accomplished i felt exhausted and have just abandoned it. Its a shame because the battle sim hard mode Gilgamesh looks like it would be so much fun on its own but they had to put it in the most exhausting and soul destroying looking gauntlet ive ever seen. I miss the days when i was worried about facing Weiss after completing Intermission lol
@@MrDanfonzy yeah that's kinda how I feel ATM, I'm so close to the platinum but those last VR missions are ridiculous for no reason. Takes like an hour to get through it and if you die it's all the way back to the start.. that's all I need to do for the plat basically but I know how you feel. If I figure out a nice easy way il post a video lol.
@Solestro I had 54 trophies in the bag before I gave up. I was going 11 curios away from 7 star hotel and was going to get around to the 300% stagger trophy. I figured I'd just do it on a hard mode playthrough. But I've just given it up lol I'm going to wait for the hard-core gamers like you to discover the cheese for the brutal and legendary sims lol
@@MrDanfonzy haha I don't blame you for giving up the amount of grinding in this game is insane and some of the challenges are just ridiculous. Il be making some more guides tomorrow so hopefully some will help you 😁. I feel like they put way too much grind into this one in the late game. Can't imagine what part 3 is gonna be like at this rate 😭
For some reason I didn’t have Odin or Special Ops so substituted them. It looked like I was going to lose but completely dominated the final round using the three cards you mentioned and won.
Yeah those 3 cards are OP. Odin can be bought from the card guy outside kalm btw same with all the summon cards. But those cards just own the game due to their ability.
Haha nice well done 😁 you haven't tried the hard mode VR challenges yet have you? You will be regretting going for the platinum lol. I'm so close to the plat but the trials are brutal 🤣
This game REALLY wants me to hate Johnny. The sheer amount of hoops to get him some trinkets. Something about giving a face to a game's Completion checklist just makes you wanna punch it.
Awesome, Thank you for the Help, even i miss Odin and Special Force Operator Cards. Instead i use Haunted Hotel and Valron Cards and then first try win 105 - 57 DAMN!!!
My deck was fairly different, but I made sure to add your strategy and for the last round. I just won with 163 points to their 22 points 🤯 Cards: Rictus Tifa Cait Sith Cid Reno Space Ranger Chimera Titan Odin Moogle trio Chocobo Jockey Ifrit Bahamut (I beat it once, but only had 86 points) Dio Shadowblood Queen
Shiva's Diamond Dust cards that fill up the board are NOT random. The card has 2 power for every pin you the player has on the square. So single pin gives 2, double pin gives 4 and triple pin gives 6.
Yeah a lot of people filled me in on that lol. I'm surprised I didn't see that from all the times I used to use her in my deck. Me just being dumb I assume lol
Great guide. Haven't finished the game when I beat this so I didn't have that one card you had I was down 69-41 by the end of the 4th round cause I couldn't get as many tiles as I could in Round 4 like with you But clutched it at the end thanks to your strategy with SB queen, Chimera and Rictus. Won 83-69 Still took me multiple tries though
Awww nice happy I could help and you finally managed to do it. What card did you not have? Ultimate party animal? That's from one of the side quests :) but glad you got it done dude! Well done.
I just did it with your help. Many thanks... RNG god wasn't that much on my side.. but i somehow managed to win with just 2 (!) Points in total more than the opponent... never doing this again 😪
Thanks, this deck works perfectly, i won this challenge in a couple of attempts, took less than one hour in the end. My final score 111 - 54 ... won by a landslide 🤣
ok i tried it out now, it worked like a charm thank you. this is how a guide should be ( ign tried to make one, the guide of ign was shit, like utter nothing)
@@Solestro yeah i went into the ign one by accident only to see that its the most generic, and wrong, advice possible cause it wasnt talking about a win condition. just "get cards that spawn cards lol"
@@Flutterdark_ Wow thats really helpful lol. You do need a couple cards that spawn cards but that aint gonna win you it xD . Well least mine was helpful! What you got left to do trophy wise?
@@Solestro glide the chocobo, jumpfrog, condor hard (im doing that rn), some chocobo races (not gold cup) desert rush, cactaur minigame, 10 crates during shinra mansion elevator, ch 12 s rank with everyone, do hard mode oh and waiting for square to patch the stupid bug that blocks cant stop wont stop from finishing.
@@Flutterdark_ yeah I'm sad that the bug is stopping certain people finishing stuff off. It was fine before the update it's really annoying. That's not too bad, not much stuff left to do then. You done all the VR missions?
Trully a life saver guis. This and the Blood Queen are completely unfair, they aren’t clearly not following the rules by having way more cards than us, plus they are using countless copies of legendary cards … but anyway, thanks to you guide this was a complete breeze, got it on my first try using your strategy! Thanks!
Wow thank you! Got it my second try with your deck. I didn’t have your blood queen deck for beating her but I liked your method so I came back to watch this when I got to this after I beat her. Also, I was thinking you had to get 100 points for 7-star hotel until I read your other comments. Again thanks so much this one was making me mega rage.
Haha you are very welcome, yeah it was making me rage as well till I figured this out. Especially since you don't need the 100 points you just need to win thankfully. Goodluck with the rest of the trophies 😁
@@Solestro Really? That's good. I won with this strat but never got a rictus and accidentally used chimera on a previous round. Got lucky though. Ended up winning with 80 even though I lost pretty bad on the final round because I had so many points from the previous rounds. Probably still won't be able to finish the 7- star because of 3D battler sephi and the 5th piano song.
@xenosaga8436 you can pause the game during the 3D Sephi brawler and me and my girlfriend did the piano song together, one hand from each of us on the controller.
Ffs finally someone explained this for us I’ve tried many decks and always wind up with next to nothing on the 5 round even with over 100 points the ai has 50 cards left some how
I had the exact same issue till I figured out the main thing is just trying to save your cards then unlock at the last couple rounds. So happy it helped you cause I know how frustrating it is. What you going for next?
@@Solestro yea I still haven’t done it so just found your video at work after trying it all night lol but I’m just taking my time trying to get as much done as possible before hard mode debating on just finishing the story then coming back to finish everything I’m at 13 so I’m dying to know what happens and get the last weapon abilities but you got my sub this was a huge help thank you
Awesome dude 😄 what you going for next in regards to completion? Il be making some more guides tomorrow if there's anything you struggle with let me know 😁
@@Solestro I'm going through the musclehead battles and the moment and levelling up in prep for hard mode 💪🏼. Usually don't look at guides unless I'm at my wits end 😂.. Will keep an eye on your content, it's good hearing a fellow Scot keep you right. Thank you man I will keep that in mind ✌🏼
@@robbiemullen7205 ah nice that's what I did too, made sure I was max level with some upgrades etc. Awww thank you well hopefully some of my other content helps. Yeah there isn't many Scots on the platform that make this sort of content that I know but it's nice to meet another Scot on here 😁
I appreciate this deck build including how all these cards work because for the most part I couldn't be bothered to read all the descriptions and I was kinda just putting cards anywhere until I won. Lol thanks. Needed to get this last bit done for the Johnny hotel
Got it on my first try with your strategy! Thank you for making this video! Took a bit of reseting to get dio and odin on same hand but on the attempt that i did i also got bloodqueen and chimera haha. It wont be easy, youll still have to make a lot of game time decisions. Couple tips that worked for me that may help others. Threw in chocobo jockey and made sure to use him in round four which is a relatively low card round. I won 101 to 94 so those extra 10 points came in clutch. Lastly but probably the biggest tip i can offer is, make sure you put chimera and rictus on the same lane in the last round. Had i split them they would have gotten some good boosts but i ultimately would have lost the individuals rows and i would have lost. Better to go all in on one lane and get the most amount of points you can. That said i didnt do a good job of holding on to cards in round 3 so im sure that made a difference.
Still working on this one. Just had a perfect run where I had over 12 point lead on round 5 with Shadowblood Queen, Rictus and Chimera all in place. They used all their starting cactuars and some they got in chests and never played Bahamut. Lost the game because they didn't use their Shadowblood Queen.
Awesome vid! Just one correction: Shiva's Ice Cards are not random. They'll be worth 2 points on lvl1ally squares, 4 points on lvl2 ally squares, and 6 for lvl3 ally squares. Cheers!! (I've won on 1st attempt with my own stinky deck, and A LOT OF LUCK - arrived at Round 5 only with 1 Gigantuar Card, and still won 😂😂😂. I've posted in YT with a private link so I can watch it again in times I feel unlucky at life 😂😂😂)
@@faburi7 yeah I didn't realise that till after lol. Shiva is fairly good if you can get stuff on the board. Haha well done dude the challenge can be brutal.
I wish you showed the actual card by card play instead of jumping to the end cause I tried placing the cards that I had (that were the same as yours) in the same spots, but because you just showed the end result I had to put them in whatever order I thought best... which wasn't best cause they managed to take over a card spot preventing me from playing out the rest. and so they got a 20 point lead in that round alone 😆 and the round after that (Round 4) they managed to take up all of the enemy spots after which (since I couldn't play) they added the +10 on two rows. so the idea of passing and letting Shiva (where is Shiva coming from anyway?) secure the spots was null and void. I don't have Odin, but hoping the rest of the deck works for me. Just gotta keep it at it and hope RNG helps!
Thank you! Absolutely never doing this again. It's like squeenix wants to piss people off with all these time sink minigames
Yeah there's a lot of minigames which didn't need to be as hard as this lol. I loved queen's blood but didn't like these challenges. You are welcome dude!
They started pissing since they returned the gym mini games.
@@fenrir_Lokison9I agree and the only reason those were harder this time around was because the haptic controllers. It wore out my fingers faster than the old challenges on the ps4 (and ps5 port.)

Agreed. I fucking hate having to learn these useless mini-games just get the Platinum trophy.
Thank God you guys put your successful strategies online
Hope the third and final part will have little to no mini-games at all!
RNG vomits on my dreams. I got poor cards. Yet somehow I passed this survival challenge. I'm just glad Square Enix isn't insane enough to force you to get 100 points for the trophy. Thank you very much for this guide!

thank you so much. Hours of failing and won with this deck the first time trying it. You are awesome!!!
Haha good that's all I can ask for. Happy I could help ☺️
Your deck helped, took a couple of tries to get the right set up, but once got it, it worked, thank so much 😀
You are very welcome 😁 , it's such a frustrating challenge, funnily enough all the card players on hard mode are about this bloody difficult lol
2 days, 2 challenges, 2 strats, 2 easy wins. Thanks again man 👍 these mini games are kicking my ass but you make them so easy!

Took me 3 attempts with this deck but holy crap I finally got it. Thank you
Woooo nice, thankfully it's the last queen's blood thing you need to do lol. Just all the other super hard tasks to do now including the combat trials.
I'm struggling with just the Boot Camp lol, it seems to come down to RNG, at least for me, can be very frustrating
@@goreflame1665 What one is the boot camp again? Queens blood or something else?
Boot camp one is the one on the list at the gold saucer before the extreme one you clicked on.@@Solestro
Took almost 2 hours for RNG to fall in my favour for the last round, but when it did, easy money. Thanks.
Well done dude 😁
Cheers dude!! That helped a lot and you helped me on my platinum journey 🎉

FYI, Shiva doesn't spawn random ice cards, points are based on the rank of the square, 2 4 and 6 for rank 1 2 and 3 respectively
And also, carrying too many cards into round 5 is kinda pointless since chances are you won't be able to play it, so might as well use it to rack more points from previous rounds
I was just going to say this lol
That’s basically what I did and ended with 122 points. Blessed RNG.
Thank you too ! Took me 2 attempts with this deck. You are real hero 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Aww thanks dude just happy to help 😊

Haha yeah now it's done onto better harder stuff. You going for the plat?
Thank you for this. Just managed to beat it using your strategy. Saved me some time! 😊
you are a legend. i kept restarting until i got your starting hand and ended up winning 103 points so got the gold straight away! Thank you! this was thw only queen's blood challenge in the entire game i couldn't do without help. Really loved this mini game and the queens blood story arc was brilliant. Thanks again
Amazing 😁 thanks for your nice comment. Haha yeah once you get a specific hand it's pretty easy. What else you got left to do in the game?
@@Solestro i wanted to go for the platinum so i did every hard mode mini game and got the highest ranking but instead of feeling accomplished i felt exhausted and have just abandoned it. Its a shame because the battle sim hard mode Gilgamesh looks like it would be so much fun on its own but they had to put it in the most exhausting and soul destroying looking gauntlet ive ever seen. I miss the days when i was worried about facing Weiss after completing Intermission lol
@@MrDanfonzy yeah that's kinda how I feel ATM, I'm so close to the platinum but those last VR missions are ridiculous for no reason. Takes like an hour to get through it and if you die it's all the way back to the start.. that's all I need to do for the plat basically but I know how you feel. If I figure out a nice easy way il post a video lol.
@Solestro I had 54 trophies in the bag before I gave up. I was going 11 curios away from 7 star hotel and was going to get around to the 300% stagger trophy. I figured I'd just do it on a hard mode playthrough. But I've just given it up lol I'm going to wait for the hard-core gamers like you to discover the cheese for the brutal and legendary sims lol
@@MrDanfonzy haha I don't blame you for giving up the amount of grinding in this game is insane and some of the challenges are just ridiculous. Il be making some more guides tomorrow so hopefully some will help you 😁. I feel like they put way too much grind into this one in the late game. Can't imagine what part 3 is gonna be like at this rate 😭
Great deck build. I copied the deck and tried the challenge blind without listening to your strategy and managed to get over 100 on my first try.
Nice! Happy I could help.
Won by 1 point, was fearing I'd be stuck on this dumb challenge forever.
Thanks!
For some reason I didn’t have Odin or Special Ops so substituted them. It looked like I was going to lose but completely dominated the final round using the three cards you mentioned and won.
Yeah those 3 cards are OP. Odin can be bought from the card guy outside kalm btw same with all the summon cards. But those cards just own the game due to their ability.
Thank you for the tips. Really helped me out get 100 points.
Nice! Got all the rewards 😁 well done!
Dude. I got it and the 100 by accident!! I've loved the minigames but I'm happy to be one step closer to be finished lol
Haha nice well done 😁 you haven't tried the hard mode VR challenges yet have you? You will be regretting going for the platinum lol. I'm so close to the plat but the trials are brutal 🤣
I have not, i am going to take a break before i start all the hard mode trials and chapters.@@Solestro
This game REALLY wants me to hate Johnny. The sheer amount of hoops to get him some trinkets. Something about giving a face to a game's Completion checklist just makes you wanna punch it.
I did it first try thanks to your deck; granted I only won by 1 point; but that is enough for me. Thanks A Lot!
Hey a win is a still a win 😁
Awesome, Thank you for the Help, even i miss Odin and Special Force Operator Cards.
Instead i use Haunted Hotel and Valron Cards and then first try win 105 - 57 DAMN!!!
Amazing guide, thank you so much. Got it first try with your video. 😊
Wooooo nice. Going for the plat I assume?
My deck was fairly different, but I made sure to add your strategy and for the last round.
I just won with 163 points to their 22 points 🤯
Cards:
Rictus
Tifa
Cait Sith
Cid
Reno
Space Ranger
Chimera
Titan
Odin
Moogle trio
Chocobo Jockey
Ifrit
Bahamut (I beat it once, but only had 86 points)
Dio
Shadowblood Queen
i only followed the deck and thats all i needed awesome work!!
Shiva's Diamond Dust cards that fill up the board are NOT random. The card has 2 power for every pin you the player has on the square. So single pin gives 2, double pin gives 4 and triple pin gives 6.
Yeah a lot of people filled me in on that lol. I'm surprised I didn't see that from all the times I used to use her in my deck. Me just being dumb I assume lol
Got 107 points thanks to this guide. Cheers!
Nice dude well done 😁
Great guide. Haven't finished the game when I beat this so I didn't have that one card you had
I was down 69-41 by the end of the 4th round cause I couldn't get as many tiles as I could in Round 4 like with you
But clutched it at the end thanks to your strategy with SB queen, Chimera and Rictus. Won 83-69
Still took me multiple tries though
Awww nice happy I could help and you finally managed to do it. What card did you not have? Ultimate party animal? That's from one of the side quests :) but glad you got it done dude! Well done.
Got on the first try. Thank you for the guide!
No probs dude happy to help!
I just did it with your help. Many thanks... RNG god wasn't that much on my side.. but i somehow managed to win with just 2 (!) Points in total more than the opponent... never doing this again 😪
I did it first try with your strategy (107 pts), simply I love you! thanks a lot :)
Thanks for the guide.any replacments foe the special operator? Trying to finish this before ending the story lol
Any you want really he's not a key part it's just the chimeras etc.
Dude I used the rictus early and round 5 I ended 77 to 76 , first try though what a great guide last one only got me close this one got me through it
Took a while but 103-88. I put in Tifa and Chocobo jockey for a couple of nice swing lanes. EXCELLENT tactics sir!
Thanks, this deck works perfectly, i won this challenge in a couple of attempts, took less than one hour in the end. My final score 111 - 54 ... won by a landslide 🤣
Thank you! Went into the last round only up by about a dozen but still came out on top!
cool. I got quite different numbers, but your tips helped a lot, I got it firt try after usibg your strategy!
Nice dude well done 😁
BLESS YOU. Got it on my first round with your deck build 😭😩
Not too difficult then? 😁 Happy I could help you ☺️
ok i tried it out now, it worked like a charm thank you. this is how a guide should be ( ign tried to make one, the guide of ign was shit, like utter nothing)
Haha yeah dont think ive ever used any guide from IGN except maybe 10 years ago. Happy it worked out for you too, thats a big compliment :D
@@Solestro yeah i went into the ign one by accident only to see that its the most generic, and wrong, advice possible cause it wasnt talking about a win condition. just "get cards that spawn cards lol"
@@Flutterdark_ Wow thats really helpful lol. You do need a couple cards that spawn cards but that aint gonna win you it xD . Well least mine was helpful! What you got left to do trophy wise?
@@Solestro glide the chocobo, jumpfrog, condor hard (im doing that rn), some chocobo races (not gold cup) desert rush, cactaur minigame, 10 crates during shinra mansion elevator, ch 12 s rank with everyone, do hard mode oh and waiting for square to patch the stupid bug that blocks cant stop wont stop from finishing.
@@Flutterdark_ yeah I'm sad that the bug is stopping certain people finishing stuff off. It was fine before the update it's really annoying. That's not too bad, not much stuff left to do then. You done all the VR missions?
Amazing - worked first try! Thanks for the easy to understand guide!
Thanks for this , took me a few goes but got it , thought i was screwed in the last round only had 6 cards to play somehow ended up winning 121-80
Thx for the deck. Big win at first try. Got 126-36 🎉
Nice dude 😁💙 well done!
Trully a life saver guis. This and the Blood Queen are completely unfair, they aren’t clearly not following the rules by having way more cards than us, plus they are using countless copies of legendary cards … but anyway, thanks to you guide this was a complete breeze, got it on my first try using your strategy! Thanks!
That deck made it for me first try with 125 pts. Thabk you so much
Wow thank you! Got it my second try with your deck. I didn’t have your blood queen deck for beating her but I liked your method so I came back to watch this when I got to this after I beat her.
Also, I was thinking you had to get 100 points for 7-star hotel until I read your other comments. Again thanks so much this one was making me mega rage.
Haha you are very welcome, yeah it was making me rage as well till I figured this out. Especially since you don't need the 100 points you just need to win thankfully. Goodluck with the rest of the trophies 😁
@@Solestro Really? That's good. I won with this strat but never got a rictus and accidentally used chimera on a previous round. Got lucky though. Ended up winning with 80 even though I lost pretty bad on the final round because I had so many points from the previous rounds. Probably still won't be able to finish the 7- star because of 3D battler sephi and the 5th piano song.
@xenosaga8436 you can pause the game during the 3D Sephi brawler and me and my girlfriend did the piano song together, one hand from each of us on the controller.
@@ZEHAHAHA9697 that's actually such a cool idea never thought about doing that with my fiance. Probably be able to star the rest of them 😂
@@Solestro takes the stress WAY OFF! LOL
Bro, thank you very much, I was able to win on my first try with your deck ❤
No probs I know how annoying it is to do with no guidance. Happy I could help 😀
I actually got 100 points using this strategy. This was amazing
Aww nice well done dude 😁
Nice! First try win 145-50 using the Chadley on the queen to throw her value to the other cards
Nice! Well done ☺️
Wow thank you! The ai played completely different cards but I somehow won 80-78!
Wooo well done!
@@Solestro thank you!
Ffs finally someone explained this for us I’ve tried many decks and always wind up with next to nothing on the 5 round even with over 100 points the ai has 50 cards left some how
I had the exact same issue till I figured out the main thing is just trying to save your cards then unlock at the last couple rounds. So happy it helped you cause I know how frustrating it is. What you going for next?
@@Solestro yea I still haven’t done it so just found your video at work after trying it all night lol but I’m just taking my time trying to get as much done as possible before hard mode debating on just finishing the story then coming back to finish everything I’m at 13 so I’m dying to know what happens and get the last weapon abilities but you got my sub this was a huge help thank you
@@Solestrofirst try thank you sir
Won it, got there eventually. Appreciate the guide.
Absolute legend mate, thanks! Got over 100 on the first go ^^
Awesome dude 😄 what you going for next in regards to completion? Il be making some more guides tomorrow if there's anything you struggle with let me know 😁
@@Solestro I'm going through the musclehead battles and the moment and levelling up in prep for hard mode 💪🏼. Usually don't look at guides unless I'm at my wits end 😂.. Will keep an eye on your content, it's good hearing a fellow Scot keep you right. Thank you man I will keep that in mind ✌🏼
@@robbiemullen7205 ah nice that's what I did too, made sure I was max level with some upgrades etc. Awww thank you well hopefully some of my other content helps. Yeah there isn't many Scots on the platform that make this sort of content that I know but it's nice to meet another Scot on here 😁
This is legit! Got a 106! This helped so much. Follow his instructions and you’re golden!
I appreciate this deck build including how all these cards work because for the most part I couldn't be bothered to read all the descriptions and I was kinda just putting cards anywhere until I won. Lol thanks. Needed to get this last bit done for the Johnny hotel
Got it on my first try with your strategy! Thank you for making this video!
Took a bit of reseting to get dio and odin on same hand but on the attempt that i did i also got bloodqueen and chimera haha.
It wont be easy, youll still have to make a lot of game time decisions.
Couple tips that worked for me that may help others. Threw in chocobo jockey and made sure to use him in round four which is a relatively low card round. I won 101 to 94 so those extra 10 points came in clutch.
Lastly but probably the biggest tip i can offer is, make sure you put chimera and rictus on the same lane in the last round. Had i split them they would have gotten some good boosts but i ultimately would have lost the individuals rows and i would have lost. Better to go all in on one lane and get the most amount of points you can.
That said i didnt do a good job of holding on to cards in round 3 so im sure that made a difference.
Still working on this one. Just had a perfect run where I had over 12 point lead on round 5 with Shadowblood Queen, Rictus and Chimera all in place. They used all their starting cactuars and some they got in chests and never played Bahamut. Lost the game because they didn't use their Shadowblood Queen.
That's amazing well done 😊
@@Solestro No, I lost the game because they didn't use any enfeeblement haha
Aww what thats so weird ive never seen them not use enfeeblement lol. Hopefully you get it soon! Sorry misunderstood there 😅 @McQkorean
Thanks sou much for this strategy, in my first attempt i do it!! My Hero.
Nice work! Onto more of the other hard stuff lol Happy to help
Thank you for this, took a couple tries but I managed to win. Only by a single point but I’ll take it lmao
Hey a win is still a win no matter by how much lol
Awesome vid! Just one correction: Shiva's Ice Cards are not random. They'll be worth 2 points on lvl1ally squares, 4 points on lvl2 ally squares, and 6 for lvl3 ally squares. Cheers!!
(I've won on 1st attempt with my own stinky deck, and A LOT OF LUCK - arrived at Round 5 only with 1 Gigantuar Card, and still won 😂😂😂. I've posted in YT with a private link so I can watch it again in times I feel unlucky at life 😂😂😂)
@@faburi7 yeah I didn't realise that till after lol. Shiva is fairly good if you can get stuff on the board. Haha well done dude the challenge can be brutal.
Actually did it first try following your deck!
Wooohooo 😁
Good Tips. I tried it 4-5 Times and got super lucky, cause in round 4 & 5 i stole all her fields and she couldn't Play any cards!
FIRST TRY WITH YOUR STRATEGY! LOVE YOU
@@Schematist wooo nice 😁 thanks dude!
I wish you showed the actual card by card play instead of jumping to the end cause I tried placing the cards that I had (that were the same as yours) in the same spots, but because you just showed the end result I had to put them in whatever order I thought best... which wasn't best cause they managed to take over a card spot preventing me from playing out the rest. and so they got a 20 point lead in that round alone 😆 and the round after that (Round 4) they managed to take up all of the enemy spots after which (since I couldn't play) they added the +10 on two rows. so the idea of passing and letting Shiva (where is Shiva coming from anyway?) secure the spots was null and void. I don't have Odin, but hoping the rest of the deck works for me. Just gotta keep it at it and hope RNG helps!
Thx for this! 102 first try. Lifesaver.
Well done 😁
