    Gemmed to beat Reed, grabbed an Oracle version. He's a pretty interesting unit, 5* version LS is 25% ATK/DEF/REC/HP if using 6 elements

    Didn't read about him, and took my defensive squad in. Worked fine on the level 5, so took it to level 6. I didn't really feel like I was in any danger of dying and he has a heal, which was annoying. But I was like, whatever, I'll chip him down over 20 turns. But then after maybe 10 turns or so...

    Bah. One turn and one sliver of life away from downing Maxwell. Double Darvanshel on my primary team made a big difference. Second team was supposed to burst her down with Fujin pots, but didn't quite make it. Now none of my friends are showing Darvanshel as lead.

    Just be prepared for a slog. Downing her on your first try is pretty amazing and not impossible, but I'd say that that's a really rare occurrence. I've had at least a dozen attempts at her so far and have only gotten her to rez once. Learning the fight is half the battle, but once you know it...

    They updated their Facebook album with all the cards shown so far (37 cards). Looking through them, there's a lot of 'random', but nothing that's super unplayable or broken. I'm excited for next month. There are 7 Spare Part cards (+1 hp, freeze, 1 turn stealth, hp/atk swap, taunt, friendly...

    I've never seen a pro match of Heroes yet, but that was pretty intense. Really close up until that first dragon knight which came pretty late in the game, then EG just seemed to fall apart.

    Trying to find the answer to this on Twitter, the only thing I found though was that you can Commanding Shout + Bouncing Blade and it'll be a guaranteed kill on the opponent's minion leaving your guys at >= 1 hp.

    Reading about the failed MMO aspect of it makes you wonder how the two were going to mesh. Rewatching the trailer, you definitely get the vibe of normal day-to-day with superheroes fighting in the background. But they also mention that Overwatch was cancelled (Titan anyone?) and the remnants are...

    If you're focusing on one unit to level up, it's not terrible to fuse off color. Sure, you don't get an xp bonus, but you'll get your guy leveled faster. Just finished Grand Gaia Chronicles. Gemmed twice on each of the 50 energy dungeons, but you get 3 gems from beating it, so a net positive...

    RNG is one thing that a digital card game can do that a physical one can't, though. By going this route, they firmly set themselves apart from MTG. Also, in a format like Arena, I definitely see Brode's argument being true. Mad Bomber doing work is awesome. Madder Bomber is going to be glorious.

    I haven't played in awhile now, but I was a fan of Tyrael for his pathing blockers and his finisher ultimate. I've heard he's pretty high up in organized team play, but I haven't really seen how people build him for that purpose.

    This episode's Macguffin was too cringe-inducing. Yeah, it's kinda par for the course for this crazy show, but it makes me wonder how long they can keep it up. Favorite episode thus far goes to the drowning lady though.

    I guess that's true. I've been playing this pretty much exclusively as it's what my schedule allows for. In my head, I was comparing this game to a WoW subscription at $15/mo since it's an easy comparison for a game played over a few months. I played the hell outta WoW and felt like I got my...

    Decided to go through my purchase history to shame myself from buying more gems. $148 since July. I'm not starving or anything, but I'm going to disable IAPs as it's effectively just gambling without the chance of a return. I mean, the return is that I'm having fun, but is ~$150 worth of fun? Nope.

    Ah, didn't have enough energy to do level 3, just did level 2 which has thunder/dark units. I'll take a swing at 3 once I regen enough, but at least I can keep my expectations low.

    That's a good idea, Mossy. I'd been neglecting the Grand Gaia Chronicles and I'm not quite ready to tackle Maxwell yet (my Darvanshel is level 67, SBB 1). Slow burn Maxwell team was in no danger of dying and the rewards aren't too shabby. Plus, the timer says it'll expire in 8 days, so it won't...

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

    Given that the Inhumans movie is 4 years away (Nov 2018), that gives plenty of time to develop Skye into an Inhuman with powers. It doesn't necessarily mean she'll be a part of the Inhuman team (I think someone described them as like the X-Men?). But then again, 4 years is a really long time for...

    I'd go with Uda (lead), Leorone, Melchio, Elimo, Oulu, Grahdens (friend). It'll take you awhile, but that should let you clear it. Elimo can be pretty squishy, so give her a Guardian Cloak if you have one (+200% def when <25% hp). If you can get Leorone's SBB unlocked, that'll help with dps as...

    I really think if you don't have the units to burst down Terminus (SGX, Michele, Luther, etc), then going defensive is the way to go. Chip away with normal attacks until you get the bosses to a sliver of life, and then BB them down. It takes forever, but it's been consistent for me.
