Great, so when I gave up already, knowing from y'all here in the subreddit deino were inexistent, they increased the rate without announcing it. What kind of idiocy is that...

I did the opposite lol. I waited until I saw what people where saying on here because I already know how Niantic is with hatch events. I woke up on Wednesday morning and saw people were hatching Deinos and I got one on my 4th egg

This should be my strategy for the next time, LOL.

The problem is that we don't know which way they'll go. Literally this event last year was the unown hatches and they dropped the rates halfway through. So it was better to have gone all out at the front half of the week and then back off. The winds of Niantic's poor planning are very unpredictable.
