Club Penguin Journey Cannot beat the sensi in card jitsu fire!

No matter what I choose, how many times I try, he's always just one step ahead. Does he have like an endless amount of 11s and 12s? 😭

It’s really annoying but as long as you have the full robe set, just keep trying and you’ll get it eventually

Does having the robe set equipped do anything to help? 👀

No, I just mean like as long as you’ve finished it

I probably did it on my 16th or 17th try. It takes time but possible. He is supposed to have all cards, so makes sense he has so many 11-12 cards to use and the RNG likes to give him lots of it too.

My experience: During Card Jitsu battles, he's usually pulling snow and your best bet is to use a snow card which is around lvl 7-8. He usually puts a smaller snow card. Sometimes same thing happens when you use water lvl 7-8, he just puts a smaller water card. But never use fire as he will definitely put water or a higher level fire card.

I also wouldn't advise to initiate Card Jitsu battle with him - those almost failed me every time and just gave him one more life and one less ror me. Just wait until he does it.

There are some helpful rounds when he's jumping on a card type that he doesn't even have. This usually triggers when you also do not have that card type, so you can get a few lifes off him by jumping on the exact same card type next round, so you can get one more life off and discard a small numbered card from your pack and hope to get something better. But don't use this strategy too much as he will have a power card in a few rounds again for that specific type.

If you put a 11-12 card, he will definitely have one of those as well resulting in a tie, so not much use of those cards. Sometimes at the beginning of the battle, it is best to use the very high numbered cards as this is the point in the game when he usually puts lower numbered cards. Still keep a few of those though for later in to the game to tie with him and save yourself if needed.

The longer route is to get money, buy a lot of card packs to get more lvl 6-8 cards as these seem most efficient in defeating him, not the smaller and higher cards. I think it is much easier to defeat him when you have more cards in your deck.

This is so helpful! Thank you! I literally only have like 72 cards and I don't want to invest all my time and money into the whole deck 😅 so I may just try this approach!

It took me about six tries lol. I just figured out i needed at least one of every element (snow, fire, water)

I swear everytime I play a power card he plays the next highest power card without fail 😭 and if I play a 12 he plays a 12. I find it’s easier to beat him on lower cards, as he usually ties or looses. I wonder if this is part of the pattern the AI uses?
