    Biggest video game surprise?

    Off the top of my head X-Men Legends was well before Arkham Asylum, as was the old Avengers side-scrolling beat-em-up arcade game. There had definitely never been a good Batman game though. *edit* Surprises for me? Shadowrun: Dragonfall. I love me some Shadowrun, but Returns left quite a bit...

    Yeah Gaffgarion is just as bad as Agrias. I was going to awaken one of mine to 5* just for the lulz, but I'm damn sure not spending 15 sacred crystals for lulz.

    BTW, it took me 520 energy to awaken Rosa. Why the fuck she requires 13 of the new 5* mats when Kain and Rydia only took 5 a piece, I'll never know.

    Last 3 welfare pulls on this banner have been Clyne, Russell, and 4* Penelo. I'm getting rather agitated.

    They looked like they were starting to turn thing around with the rebrand this year, but then they kept releasing heroes when they needed another week or two of polish despite the fact that they were releasing half as many heroes this year, and they completely destroyed the economy of the game...

    frysrs.jpg Co-op has been in the game for almost a year, since December. Anyway, after getting a better look at Nova's abilities and upgrades, I'd be impressed if they actually balanced her well. I'm guessing she'll either be awful or crazy OP.

    Well you can't raise it past 10 at 3*, the LB cap is 10/15/20/25. So it doesnt take that long to finish maxing the LB once you've gotten excalibur. Granted that would only be 60% instead of 50% at 6*, but since Cecil has high tide, a good TM, and a LB that isn't just damage, it seems worth it in...

    6* Cecil gets high tide doesn't he? Also seems like it could be extremely good if they ever introduce boss fights that are more about endurance rather than bursting them down in a couple turns. Also, it's not like Cecil has a bad TM or anything.

    I'm impressed, they rolled out Nova pretty quick, and didn't nerf Alarak. They did nerf Artanis, but it seems like he'll roll with it just fine.

    Alt pulled Pcecil two days in a row, main pulled Clyne and Russell. >< So here's the crystal results of 20 pro awakening runs. Short version is I averaged 1.15 Sacreds per run, so INT would have to average 0.575 or higher to be better than pro for sacreds. The macro link Vorph posted has an...

    He used a poor analogy but he's right about the MTG meta. It's almost always better to just make slight tweaks to the best deck rather than try to play a counterdeck. That being said, freeze mage absolutely clobbers current midrange shaman builds because most of the time they're too damn slow...

    If you can't roll the entire gym with your current lineup and you have revives to spare (which everyone should unless you get too overzealous pitching them to make room for balls) it's worth letting your first 5 faint to squeeze out as much damage as possible, but yeah there's no point letting...

    The obvious answer is to just pull another Cecil and use him until you're done maxing the LB on that one

    So got Kain to 80, got myself all fired up to take down ELT Babel, set up my party, forget to bring Unicorn Horns along. Win anyway because the Lightning I brought with me has 630+ atk with Diabolos equipped and while they resist breaks, bosses don't resist Imperil.

    Broke my Edge streak with a Rosa this morning. I almost wish she was a 3* base so that capping her LB was a realistic goal.

    10 shamans in a row. Switch decks, next 6 games are 1 shaman, 4 anyfin pallies, and aggro freeze mage.

    My last 10 matches have been against shaman. And I'm playing shaman. GODDAMN WARRIORSTONE *edit* 10 shaman matches in a row, switch to freeze mage, immediately lose to aggro freeze mage. Then get matched against anyfin. Great game blizzard.

    Uh...so the exact same thing happened again. Except this time Scarmiglione landed disease on your Lightning, and 3* Maria doesn't have cleanse so I was stuck with it. Because of the reduced damage from disease, barrage+counter wasn't enough to trigger Cagnazzo's second stage. Lilith Rod am mine!

    Just in case I was missing something, I ran a game earlier with vanguards as the core of my army. On top of everything else, they interfere with each others pathing something awful, which is a problem wrathwalkers don't have. And I'm not necessarily saying ascendants are overpowered, but you...

    I only kept track of my last 3 pro runs (stopped once I got the last mats I needed for Rydia and Kain) Run 1) Sacred x4 Run 2) Sacred x2 Run 3) Sacred x1 Holy x2 Obviously not nearly a large enough sample size, but since all future 5* awakens will need the special mats (not just 4* units...

    Wonder if they're going to nerf Alarak (god only knows why they would do that). I'm not very satisfied with Alarak. Ascendants are a pita because the time you spend spamming orbs is time you aren't spending controlling Alarak and they chew through supplicants like mad. Vanguards are strong but...

    Ugh. After the first barrage she counterattacked Cagnazzo, triggering his second stage and giving him a free turn, and then he landed sleep on her. Should be doable as long as I don't get buttfucked by RNG again. *edit* Wouldn't object to another barrage lightning on my main account if you...

    This is a joke right? The first standard rotation completely turned the game on its head. Also, MTG rotates 800+ cards every year and each expansion cycle is typically heavily focused on some new mechanic. Hearthstone will be rotating ~200, has a core set that never rotates, and the new...
