    Gotham

    I don't think it's that bad that they introduced a lot of baddies in the pilot, it's part of why I tuned into the show (what's the Penguin up to now? Oh look, it's the Riddler being weird, etc etc). Certainly there are a lot of characters, but the fact that they're known makes it easier to...

    Hearthstone

    I don't have Harrison, but I've always thought that he was more of a meta pick. If you're seeing a lot of Gorehowls, Jaraxxus's, and Doomhammers, then he's an amazing card. For regular 2 durability weapons, he isn't bad. And as a general 5 drop, you could do better (i.e. Loatheb), but not...

    Hearthstone

    I've always thought diversions like the above would be a breath of fresh air for this game. Naxx helped, but the game could always use more. Reverse arena, Nozdormu mode (15 seconds per turn), Naxx arena (let us play as Naxx bosses with their decks), 40 or 20 hp heroes, etc etc

    OT: I just recently learned that Happy Gilmore's love interest is also the mom on Modern Family (Claire Dunphy). (Spoilers since this isn't SS and slightly NSFW)

    Titan has been cancelled.

    The three lives of Blizzard Entertainment | Polygon Interesting read on Blizzard. Lots of Metzen praise, a Tigole shoutout, Titan cancellation, Hearthstone, HotS, etc etc. Nothing really new though, other than the quote above. But that's kinda been implied

    Brave Frontier

    Dia, Bran, and Themis's 6*s are out. Dia's the best of that batch with +50% atk to rainbow and 1.3x BC fill rate. Bran isn't terrible with +50% atk to rainbow and 1.3x spark damage. Themis is pretty meh.

    Sucks that you don't get a burst frog. The other ones had burst frog + gem, this one only has a gem.

    I don't think the effect delay means much as it's zero for the majority of units I've seen. Units with lots of hits is good, but I just pay attention to their animations to try to time it out. Michele, for instance, hits a lot and has a nice distribution of hits. Also, it's got almost no wind...

    Had extra energy, so went for round 2 against Grahdens and got him! Comp was 2 x Gravion leads for +40% hp and occasional damage reduction, 6* Lillith who did the majority of the damage, a level 27 6* Elimo, Leorone, and Aem for BC generation buffs. Double Gravion was pretty ridiculous as both...

    Make sure you see the 'BBUP?' in green under the unit when you're selecting fodder. Some units change the type of fodder you need between BB and SBB. Ex: Leorone's BB is support, but his SBB is support / offense. The priority in fodder type is offense > support > heal. So you use support-type...

    lol, I think that was me. Meant no offense! It just happened one time when I was cycling Felneus leaders while farming something.

    For those building BB spam teams, I maxxed my (L) Leorone's SBB last night (10 hits on all + 70% atk, def, rec buff). His leader skill can be pretty tricky to optimize, but it's pretty hilarious when you do. Basically, if you get 2+ AOE BBs to spark, you'll have infinite BBs for your team*...

    Now that I'm thinking about it, you could even do rainbow BB spam right now since you have a Bordebegia. Have him lead, throw in your strongest guys, and go to town. Ideally, you want units with lots of hits. At 6*, Dia gets '+BB gauge fill rate' to her leader skill along with the +50% atk for 5...

    Brave Frontier

    You could do fire BB spam with Bordebegia lead, Lava, Dia, Aisha, and Darvanshel. That's probably your strongest comp. +spark damage, ignore def, thunder ele (for water enemies), +crit, and damage reduction. For friends, look for +BB gauge fill rate (Felneus/Uda) or +BC generation (Leorone). You...

    Is Deemo that worth it? There isn't even a 6* form. 13 hits is nice, but hardly seems worth the mediocre stats

    Lancia's SBB: heal + atk boost + regen Themis' SBB: heal + dark element + rec boost I'd say Lancia > Themis, but Themis' stats are better than Lancia's.

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    Nisha looks the least interesting to me. I'm kinda sad they don't have a berserker type class as that's what I played the last two games (Brick and Salvador). Also, no sniper tree anywhere? edit: I guess Nisha is supposed to be the berserker type with her active skill? Not a fan of auto-target

    St. Lamia > Cave of Malice > The Midnight Aristocrat is 1/2 energy today, giving 420 xp/energy. Not as good as the double xp on The Fourfold Pillar, which was 520 xp/energy, but still decent and it gives a lot of attack/support units for BB leveling

    Brave Frontier

    I don't see why you wouldn't unlock his SBB and just use it as needed, having him be the leader doesn't change the utility of using SBB over BB. If you're going against a boss that does massive damage, for example, just use his BB for the HP gain

    Titan has been cancelled.

    Well there's already plenty of mounts in the damn game. Just increase their speed, make tracks that you have to go around 3 times, and throw in items that would just be ground based spells or modifiers to speed (i.e. mushroom) or stun, or dismount. Special items could let you target players...

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

    Well, the next Marvel movie doesn't come out until May 2015 (Age of Ultron). So they don't have to schedule around their movie universe for tie-ins (i.e. Thor 2 and Cap 2).

    Titan has been cancelled.

    With the success of Hearthstone, I'm hopeful that Blizzard will branch out into completely different genres. They set up a small team, told them to make a small game, and it became a huge hit. Now that they know the model works, I could see them doing similar things like an internal game jam (if...

    Grabbed a Lunaris with the discounted summon ticket. Much better than Zephyr as a long term unit for a rainbow team. Her SBB clears status ailments and prevents them for 3 turns. Good stuff

    It's been a downward spiral with gaming for me. Don't get me wrong though, I still love gaming -- I still read gaming sites every day, come to RR to discuss, or watch YouTube during lunch breaks -- I just can't devote an hour a night playing games anymore. Every now and then I'll get a block...

    Beat Karl this morning without too much trouble. Didn't even really look up his abilities and the only prep I did was to take out my fire units. Used a BB spam team (Leorone/Felneus) and second team was a lightning team that didn't get used. Leveled up after the fight and tried out Grahdens...

    Goddammit. 6* Ramna and Zephyr released. Too many units to work on, not enough team cost... Oh, never looked at their SBBs, both give +atk to units of the same color.
