Pokajan Strategy: Beginner's Guide

First, a brief explanation. Since the number of players varies depending on the generation or group of foreign Hololive members, it's essential to read the flow of the game based on the cards in your hand and those on the field. Generation 1 Generation 2 Gamers HoloID 1 Let's assume Natsuiro Matsuri from Generation 1 has a bonus in this situation. In this case, if Natsuiro Matsuri triggers a Pokajan with two cards of a different color or four cards from Generation 1, you'll take significant damage due to the bonus. Therefore, it's best not to play those cards unless another player plays the same color and you won't be hit, especially if you have them in your hand. Besides bonus cards, be cautious of groups formed by a single color or when a specific character hasn't appeared on the field yet. You can see which cards haven't appeared by long-pressing a card (possible on smartphones, maybe on PC too) or by tapping the book icon in the top left corner. The basic strategy is to hold onto bonus cards and avoid playing cards that haven't appeared on the field yet. I've seen players who play cards assuming they'll be hit by a Pokajan just because it's a group of three, but I often see them get wiped out by Pokajans exceeding 500 or 800 points afterward, so it's better not to imitate that. Kudo also did that, and it only lowered his win rate.
