Hi, Im Kaci. I play too much Kingdom Hearts. If you've got questions, I've got answers.

For the new Epic Medal Carnival deals: what are your thoughts? Would you choose the Upright deal or the Reversed deal?

Great question.

I really wish I could say the Upright deal was better.  Honestly, the best medals in the game right now are Ill. Terra, Sora, and Riku.  All three of them are available in the Upright deal, and they took out six of your Premium options too, which makes them even easier to get!  But… alas…

The Reversed deal is infinitely better.  It has six damage-dealing Premiums.  But the real strength is in the guaranteed epics.  Wherein 17 epic Upright medals are buffs/debuffs, absolutely none of the Reversed ones are.  That means, where you’d get a 39.2% chance of getting a damage dealing medal in Upright, you get 100% chance in Reversed.

Then there’s the fact that you’ll get at least three.  Which can be great for working up to Tier 3 Guilt.  Especially because there are only 19 epics for Reversed.

But wait.  That’s not even the best part!

There are only THREE Tier 2 Reversed medals.  Yep.  Three.  That’s it.  So your seven other medals will be those three, or epics, or Premiums.  You will guilt Hag, Timeless River Pete, and The Queen so damn fast.

Honestly, I feel like they maybe didn’t think this whole Reversed deal through very well.  Next to the Upright one, it’s an absolute godsend.

THAT BEING SAID!  Should you pull?  Yeah, probably.  Ill. Kairi won’t come out for at least two weeks for this EMC, plus a week off, plus another.  That’s four weeks.  At 3k each week for $15 pack + 700 a week for login bonus + 3 more days of daily jewels, you’ll get 12k+2.8k+600=15,400 jewels between now and Ill. Kairi. (Speculated, anyway.)  So if you’ve got 14,600 jewels or more and can spare 15 bucks a week, maybe save up.  If you’re below that, or significantly above that, then you might as well do this deal.  Even two or three pulls in the Reversed deal will give you two T2 guilted medals.  

Lastly: this EMC is lasting two weeks.  So take your time.  You won’t be pulling any of the 14% medals because they are Upright only, so don’t worry about the HSC.  Wait until the last day to make your decision if you want to.  A Halloween event should come up next week and maybe you’ll have a change of heart.  Don’t bother rushing it, this deal is going to be around. ^_^

I hope that helped!
