Mio's Hyper card issues

[JojOnny]

So couple days ago I managed to unlock Mio, the problem is everytime I try to use her Hyper the game just doesn't allow me to. I know it's a Norma 3/Level 3 card, and the cost is 50 stars (5 golden stars) according to the card art, but I've tried it many times with 100+ stars and I still couldn't get the card to work (in co-op mode, I still haven't tried it in the Normal mode).



Ps: I actually got it to work once! I had 96 stars and couldn't use it, then I moved, landed on the Home tile. Next turn I managed to use the card. Is that the hidden condition? Thanks!

The game doesn't let you use it if it won't hit anything. Do you think that's the issue? Keep in mind that it doesn't work if your target is on the same panel as you and it doesn't work if there is a gap in the panels between you and the target.

I've tried that also, with and without available targets, still nothing

Mio's Hyper only works if there's another player lined up with you in a straight unbroken path.

Example screenshots of its range:

But, there can't be any gaps in the paths in between you and your opponents, like here:

Also, keep in mind that it does not work on players that are standing on the same panel as you.

Yes, I know, but I'm telling you I couldn't activate it even with opponents in the pannel next to me.
Sadly I didn't screenshot it, but I'm playing with some friends and they're as confused as me.

Probably the card effect has a dif condition in co-op mode?

Oh, you're playing it in co-op mode? Well, the effect is slightly different, dealing 5 damage instead of automatically KO-ing the enemies, but the range should still be the same. Note that in co-op mode, it won't harm your allies, so there needs to be actual enemy units (the boss or any of its minions if there are any) within range for you to be able to use Magical Inferno.

I know ;-;

I'm telling you, the game wasn't letting me use the card with several enemies in range, at level 3 and more than 50 stars. The one time I activated it was when I was on the Home pannel

Wait actually in that screenshot (coincidence or not) Mio activated her Hyper on the Home tile

Oh, that was indeed a coincidence. Let me find a screenshot of me cooking something without being on a Home tile...
...Okay, here's one that I took in the past:

In this cramped position, I could only hit the single tiles directly in front of me and behind me, but there just so happened to be opponents on those tiles, so it was perfect anyway.

I just checked in-game myself just now and Mio's Hyper indeed always works for me in Co-op Mode as long as I had Norma 3, 50+ stars, and enemy units in range. These are the only requirements needed to use the Hyper, so there must be an unaccounted-for variable that was preventing you from using the card.

There are many variables that could prevent you from using cards that are important to account for. Was the price of the card increased due to Price of Power or the Bankrupt mixer? Were you holding the Lucky Charm gift card? Were you disabled from using cards due to M10 Robot's EMP? These are just some examples of things that could have prevented use of the card. More details are required about the game in question in order to determine what exactly the issue was (Did it happen in just one game or multiple games? Which Boss were you facing? What other cards were in your hand?). But I can say with confidence that there is no extra "hidden condition" to activate it, and that the act of being on a Home panel has nothing to do with being able to use the card.

If there were no effects preventing you from using the card, then it may be an obscure glitch of some sort that only applies in certain conditions, as the card seems to work fine for me.

Were you holding Lucky Charm maybe? It prevents you from playing cards.

I tested it against Summer Beast once and through the entire match I coudn't use the card at all (lvl 3 50+ stars). I was playing with 2 more friends and they didn't know wth happened as well. No Lucky charms, no Price of Power and all mixers were deactivated ( I GUESS, cus now I can't remember tbh)

I tried it again and I there wasn't any mixers and it just worked perfectly

I tested it against Haruo and 2 things happened tho:

1. The card worked properlly all the times there was a minion on the same line, except when the minion was on the same tile as I was, and that's perfect cus it the way the card works.


BUT!

2.When I was on an empty tile, along with Haruo on that same tile, the game allowed me to activate the card.


In conclusion: there was probably something I haven't noticed on the Summer Beast match

Maybe something related to the card cost idk.

But thanks for the help, it's really nice to see that this game's community is still active!

Strange, Summer Beast doesn't have any card-disabling or star-cost effects so I'm at a loss as to what could've caused this. Just in case, I tested it myself on Summer Beast this time and could use Magical Inferno just fine on both the Boss and the seagulls, so we can confirm it's not a glitch specific to Summer Beast at least. I also tested the thing you mentioned with Haruo, and it worked as intended with me being unable to activate the Hyper while Haruo was on the same tile. Perhaps there was a stray chicken off in the distance for you or something?

Either way, I'm glad it's working for you now!!~ Feel free to post another question if you continue to have issues with this or if you have issues with anything else. There's plenty of people in the community willing to help~
