    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Rewatched Avengers 1 last night and noticed that Gideon Malick is on the Council advising Nick Fury. I remember them saying that he was a member of the world security council on the show, but didn't realize he was in the Avengers. Fucking kudos to Marvel for playing the long game on that char...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    I'm still kinda amazed that they threw in a Star Wars reference. They legally can, of course, since Disney owns both Star Wars and Marvel. But I never expected it out of their big budget blockbuster. Agents of Shield had Bobbi wearing a Star Wars shirt and Coulson sometimes makes SW jokes. I...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Medivh seems really interesting, potential to be super broken. Even if he brings negligible amounts of damage to a team fight, he has Uther's Divine Shield as his W, a better / faster version of Medivac for his E, and crazy cc for either of his ults. Really interested to see what pro games look...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Bronze dragon from WoW that has time powers. Shows up as a gnome most of the time. Her Fel skin makes her look like a goblin though, which was probably intentional for the goblins and gnomes aspect. She's definitely the smallest char in HotS though Just noticed that Medivh's teleport skill...

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    I feel better about this reboot more than others though. Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarty are funny in their own right. To compare to another reboot, I'd take this over what Michael Bay did with Transformers and Ninja Turtles (based on trailers and reviews. Never saw it though and hopefully...

    Was in the mood for turkey burgers and went with this Serious Eats recipe:Seriously Meaty Turkey Burgers. Really really good stuff. Eggplant gave it good moisture and the extra 'umami bombs' (soy sauce, marmite, and anchovy) helped with the meatiness of the patty. Only issue is that it takes...

    Hearthstone

    Yeah, edited to 5/7. I guess that's true in you essentially get free bodies with your 10/10, it just feels bad from an efficiency standpoint. edit: 10/10 + 5/5 for 10 mana is definitely better than a 5/10 + taunt for 7 mana, so Y'Shaarj is really the more efficient play.

    Hearthstone

    Definitely a good read. Lifecoach's Ramp Druid with Y'Shaarj as a top deck seems kinda surprising. There are a lot of good battlecry minions in that deck that could get pulled out by Y'Shaarj (Mire Keeper, Druid of the Claw, Ancient of War, Azure Drake, Spellbreaker). I like Kolento's version...

    What's everyone running for Patron Warrior? The shell feels really strong and flexible, but there's too much I want to add and not enough card slots. Currently experimenting with Bloodhoof Brave and corrupted Hogger. Spoilered for size

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Tyrion freeing the dragons so he could leave Mereen is an interesting thought, but seems like a stretch. He clearly states that he wants to free the dragons bc they're currently chained up and not eating and are symbolic to Dany being the dragon queen. He's kind of obsessed with dragons given...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Regardless of which WoW dragon it is, is it going to fight as a human most of the time and transform to a dragon for ultimates? I guess if it's always a dragon, you could do flame breath, tail swipe and maybe a knockback / wing buffet. If Chromie, then ults could speed or slow time, but that...

    Blood Warriors isn't a bad card either to refill your hand and keep the Patron train chugging.

    Also the scene before, Tyrion asked Missandei if the dragons minded her. After that, I honestly thought he was going to have her unchain the dragons instead of doing it himself.

    My guess is that the ToJ vision will drives Bran, Hodor, and Meera back to south to reunite with Jon. Still though, you can't really do anything with that information until Daenerys comes back to Westeros. And also, how would you even prove it?

    Hearthstone

    I agree that Freeze Mage just isn't great in this meta. Spent all day yesterday figuring that one out. Will probably switch to Druid or something as I dislike aggro decks. I don't particularly care about climbing the ladder, but it sure sucks ending up at 0 stars rank 20.

    Tried a Yogg Saron Freeze Mage yesterday and got shit over by Control Pallies. Pyro + Equality (x2), all the healing (Ragnaros, Lightlord does a crap ton of healing), Peacekeeper + Stampeding Kodo, Sylvanas, Cairne, Tyrion, and N'Zoth. Had no chance with Freeze Mage. Also lost to Control /...

    The Jungle Book (2016)

    There's a lot of tension and dark tones with the villains: Shere Kahn, Kaa, and King Louie. Anytime one of them is on screen, it's pretty tense. There's a jump scare or two and the fights in general could be pretty scary for young kids as it's claws and teeth / animal on animal, but there's no...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    The 'why are these guys fighting' is predictable bc they've been teasing the friction since Ultron. The actual resolution of the fight is up in the air (for me at least, maybe comic readers already know what's coming). Also, the actual 1v1 duels between the teams and how they play out is still...

    What? After that first scene where he tries to protect the girl in the drive by (and Chloe wasn't there), he doesn't get hurt again until Chloe shoots him. Is there some other scene I'm not remembering where he doesn't get hurt and Chloe is around?

    Wow... those changes.... I was really expecting them to completely gut the cards rather than remove charge and lower/raise numbers to nerf them. The Molten Giant change is incredibly baffling though. Free Molten only when you're less than 5 hp, need to be 15 hp or less to even play him, that...

    It clearly says "Each turn this is in your hand", so of course it's going to keep changing every turn. The unclear part is when it'll change, and apparently it's at the beginning of the turn. So if you draw it in your opening hand, you can play him as a 1/1 for 1 mana.

    Also, is it just me or does there seem to be a lot of legendaries in this expansion? Lots of cool effects, but unless you drop some serious money, you're not likely to collect these cards. C'Thun everyone gets with a pre-order, but if you got the 50 card pack, you're only guaranteed one...

    Huhu's a battle cry, gotta play Highmane first. But still at 5 mana for the same body as Highmane, you get two mana left if you drop Highmane on 6 and Huhu on 7. Really good for midrange Hunter. At first I thought it was weird that she's a beast, but she's a Silithid and not a humanoid /...

    Hearthstone

    Knee jerk reaction is that this is a bad card. But looking at all spells that cost 5 or less, I can't see many situations where you could outright screw yourself over. That is, you probably want to play it when you don't have any other minions on board to decrease the chance you'll DD your own...
