    Hearthstone

    Unplayable vs aggro, giving them turns 7 and 8 for free is death unless you are so far ahead you'd win anyway. But sets up a ton of combos and basically gives you OTK turns easily. Edit: Malygos dragon priest might be a thing after this expansion with this guy and that board clear dragon.

    Justice League (2017)

    Well the plot is nonsense, the movie has no real theme, and Superman's lip is freaking weird. But credit where it's due the characters are good, I'm not sure why Lobo is pretending to be Aquaman but he's pretty good too. I can see the glue though between the directors, big time with Superman as...

    Yeah usually get the pre-order, but with the pricing changes, it's not even worth it for me anymore. I'll see how it goes this expansion just getting income with quests and arena.

    Stranger Things

    The main point of the Chicago stuff was to give something for Eleven to do, in the guise of characterization and backstory. She's too powerful for the plot to have milling around otherwise the threat isn't really credible. Lazy writing? Sure, but it's the typical problem with characters like that.

    Stellaris

    Also, starting conditions matter a huge amount in this game. Sometimes you're just stuck between two enemy empires early on and have no good mining areas nearby and you will fall behind because getting a fleet powerful enough to actually defeat theirs + a starbase actually requires a fair amount...

    Hearthstone

    The meta is okay. There are three classes with good performance (Rogue, Priest, Druid) each with a totally different archtype (tempo, control, and midrange). And occasionally you'll see a shaman, warlock or hunter. I don't really like playing with or against the Rogue deck, mostly due to the...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    All the foreign language titles of the movie which have to conjugate the noun refer to it as a plural Jedi. But the director thinks it's a singular. Figure that out!

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Couple thoughts on the new Klingons: - Changing the appearance really does change their character. TNG Klingons are a lot like a space biker gang, lots of leather, lots of feasting and fighting and fun. These guys are stiff and regal looking, lots of gold and ornamentation. I can't really see...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Did the math, and space is a funny thing. If her jetpack had any sort of decent acceleration she should be zooming (1g after a minute is half a km a second), the bigger problem is slowing down. She should have had turned the jetpack around 180 degrees and used it to slow down at the halfway...

    About the beacon: Episode was pretty good too. I'll keep watching but with how CBS is managing it I doubt it'll last another season.

    I basically just replaced the innervates with 1 earthen scales and 1 feral rage because I wasn't sure which would be better in the current meta. Ranks 8 -> 4.

    Hearthstone

    Decided to test Jade Druid after the nerfs considering nobody would be teching hate for it. Went something like 20-4. It seems extremely strong still, or maybe I am just bad at deciding a good all-in turn with innervate and this nerf helped my typical style of play.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    In the new canon the Emperor isn't as overtly racist as pre-disney. Which I think is a good thing as I never bought why an evil space wizard would be concerned with such mundane things as species purity. Oh and his first apprentice was nonhuman as well. In the Thrawn novelization the fact that...

    Mages are a bit worse this expansion since they don't get the occurrence bonus on glyph or meteor. That might be why.

    Figured Patron Warrior would do it, as Patron doesn't give a damn about 2/6's or 100 armor or blizzard. Beat him with it first try.

    Hearthstone

    As a beginner the arena isn't going to gain you any net gold, if you are halfway decent you will manage to acquire packs a bit cheaper as going 3/3 in arena is slightly better than just buying a pack with 100 gold. Your best shot is to get the Heartharena app, or something similar and run it...

    With these both at common and neutral, I can't imagine next sets arena. Seems like it'll be horrible.

    Hearthstone

    Lifesteal is more of a midrange tool than a control tool anyway. A 3/3 lifesteal is essentially a 6/3 in a race situation, and if the aggro deck can't race the midrange down it loses. Control decks don't have a board till late so lifesteal isn't as good for them. In MTG it works a bit better...

    I've won something like 5 arena games in the last couple days because of my opponents playing bittertide hydra while behind or even on board. Heartharena shouldn't rate it so highly, total trap card.

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    In the comics she is a demigod. The daughter of Zeus and Hippolyta that's a bit more of a recent development but she's been powered up in the comics in the last 30 or so years. In the movie it isn't entirely clear. In the comics the Olympians exist and are called gods, but keep in mind so is...

    Michael Bisping too injured to fight Yoel Romero, prefers to wait for Georges St-Pierre - MMAmania.com In my opinion they should just just strip the belt and have Romero and Rockhold fight for it, with these two doing money grubbing bullshit stall tactics. Although if that happens likely GSP...

    I liked it. I'm glad people are at least making movies like this still. Mainstream horror is mostly either: haunted house, possession, or slasher flicks. Cosmic horror movies like this are super rare.

    In aggro druid, you for sure use two crawlers and two crabs. Even if you don't eat their stuff, you can eat your own stuff since it runs murlocs and pirates as well.

    They just gotta tone down the legendary cards next set. Having two per class is just way too expensive for the average player.

    Rank 3 with dragon priest! The secret is to run double potion of madness. Too many decks in the meta are screwed over by it.
