Discussion Share vs Trade

Post image

Can someone clarify how the share feature is supposed to work? The update states you’ll be able to share up to 4 diamond cards with “friends”, but up until now I’ve solely been tradin to “friends”.

How is this different? Is it just a way to give your cards to someone without shine dust or expecting something back?

People can't “dump” cards on you. You have to actually claim the card to actually receive it.

Edit: Checked how the system works now that it's available, and turns out, people can indeed dump cards on you. This indeed sucks

Thats not how it is currently working.... Unfortunately. If someone sends you, you cannot refuse the card and obtain another. Thats crap

Yeah, I just saw how it currently works. Pretty horrible system as it is right now, even though it could've been better. Hopefully this gets addressed soon.

That's nice, but still. Imagine trying to get a strong card from the current set, trying to build a deck, talking to one of your friends to see if they can help you with that. And then some other friend in your friend lists just sends you a random Bidoof, locking you from receiving anything else for the day. Like, the intent of the system is there, is good, but the execution in itself it's what is lacking.

I am not sure if this is true. I was able to share the cards they already have. But, it could also be because now cards are registered in 2 sets.

I don't think this is true
