Smash Bros looking great. The 4v4 matches were kinda meh, but the 1v1s were awesome. Definitely feeling some Wii U hype

Generalizations aside and amidst the randomness of the game, a more skilled player should have the advantage. Knowing the match up and what your opponent will likely play, when to push the face or to trade, when to take a chance on Soulfire or Knife Juggler, when to cycle cards etc are all...

Correct. Honing pushes the edge back into alignment, sharpening takes off material to create a new edge. Also, I haven't had to have my knives sharpened yet, but when I do, I'll be taking them to a professional. I don't trust automatic knife sharpeners or my own hand to do it manually. Even...

Hearthstone ladder is just grinding. As long as you can maintain greater than a 50% win rate, you'll hit legend if you put in the time. Maybe the golden mage decided to just mess around this season and not grind again, you never know.

Arena's a great way to learn and all, but damn if the competition isn't stiff on the weekends. Played 4 so far today and highest I got was 7 wins. Everything else was 3 or less.

IMO, whole wheat pasta isn't as offensive bc most of the flavor of pasta tends to come from the sauce. On a pizza or sandwich though, that whole wheat flavor is the first thing to hit your tongue

Butcher did an AMA before Skin Games.I am Jim Butcher, author of the Dresden Files, the Codex Alera and the upcoming Cinder Spires! Ask Me Anything! : books. Worth a read, but the tidbits I liked are that Toot-Toot is going to be gaining some power. More Molly in book 16. And book 16 is called...

5 mana Leeroy? Then you couldn't shadowstep him twice in one turn

As long as you get it when it counts

Just finished it. I kinda thought that the parkour thing was a bit silly, but it came back so often that I couldn't help but giggle every time it did.

It's probably common knowledge, but it was new to me. Lots of discussion about tossing out Sunfury Protectors on empty boards and only buffing small minions with Argus, specifically bc of TBK.

In other words, Druid of the Claw in bear form is bad. Go cat form for your turn 5 play. Disclaimer: not legend, but was watching Hafu get a coaching session on Druid vs Druid mirror match ups a few nights ago.

That was a pretty ridiculous play though. Shadow Stepping a Mana Addict to conceal it with Stealth was pretty clutch. Granted, Auchenai + Circle would've cleared it while they were Stealthed, but still. Huge play by the Rogue.

I don't even...

I don't think it's all that great. it's basically Ancestral Spirit (2 mana, Deathrattle: Resummon minion), but instead of giving a minion deathrattle, you destroy it outright. What's the best combo you can think of? Leeroy, Ancestral, Rebirth, Rockbiter (x2) is 10 mana to do 24 damage. Or...

It's a Black Temple card back, not Naxx Hearthstone Ranked Play Season 2 - Brave the Black Temple! - News - Hearthstone

Sounds like a lot of fun. What did you do prior to working in biology/ecology? Also, what led you there in the first place?

I normally make my grilled cheese by buttering both sides, browning one side of two slices of bread, sandwiching the cheese with the browned sides of bread, and then browning the remaining side. Both sides browned, and gooey cheese in the center

Apparently Alton Brown is a YouTuber now? Pretty happy about this, I've missed Good Eats

I primarily play Tempo Rogue with lots of battlecry cards and I run two Ancient Brewmasters (5/4 for 4 mana) to get them back. I could maybe see replacing one of the Brewmasters with this card, but the randomization is kinda meh. It could end up returning a Damaged Golem or the 2/1 Defias Bandit...

Finale was okay. I like how Coulson and Fury just stood around the last 10 min of the fight, spouting one liners and essentially waiting for someone to save their butts. Also, how did Garrett hop in that chair when they put him in a box?

That took me a sec, but ouch. Cyclone Strike reroll on your Wiz...

When you boil chicken, all the tasty juices end up in the water. Sous vide gets around that by sealing it in a bag. The only time I'll boil chicken is for making soup/stock when you want flavor in the water.

Any other place to watch that? Don't have cable

And in other news... New warrior weapon for Naxx. Spoilered for size

Yeah, the range on Explosive Blast is pitifully short, like 10 yards. When I was using it, I'd force move myself to basically hug mobs. Even if you use a melee signature spell like Spectral Blades on your left-click when getting close to mobs, you'll miss out on a lot of AOE potential against...

For the pants, I'd guess he rerolled to sockets, not sure about the Mirrorball though.

Black Temple card back for at least rank 20. I assume legendary stays the same. Hearthstone Ranked Play Season 2 - Brave the Black Temple!

Anecdotal evidence, but I've been playing in the morning when the clan is pretty quiet. I used to go solo, and would get a leg every 1-3 rifts. Instead, I do public games, open rifts there and try to stay grouped. Having the group loot buff seems to help a ton as I've gone up to 1-2 legs per...

Who cares if you can't trigger it on your turn? It'll combo well with turn 3 Argent Protector on your 2 drop. And it also synergizes with all the 'summon minion' cards (Imp Master, Razorfen Hunter, Dragonling Mechanic, Violet Teacher, and Silver Hand Knight).

I sincerely hope that removing impulse purchases doesn't hurt them too much. I'm not a comic reader by any means, but I had some time today and started reading the Ms. Marvel comic that I had impulse purchased earlier to see what the fuss was about (Ms. Marvel's a 16 yo Muslim girl). I was...

Kind of a small thing, but I was rewatching Avengers last night and I saw Agent Sitwell on the heli-carrier. Apparently he was also in Thor and a few eps of Agents of Shield (Garrett also mentions that Sitwell hand picked some people in 'Turn Turn Turn'), but he had a fairly big role in Cap 2. I...

Yeah, Faith 2.0 definitely feels unnecessary. There's only 3 eps left in the season, so it seems pretty late to be introducing a new character. But I guess they're trying to push the story forward of building up the ranks of the good guys for the big showdown with the Royals? (A week or two ago...

I'm thinking that they won't kill him off by the end of the season. I'm thinking they get Garrett, but Ward disappears. Next season, he'll be the antagonist. Or maybe he'll be some neutral character that they reluctantly accept the help of when they're in a bind, but get mad at again for being...

9 mana for this and a Starfall to clear the opponent's board. Against paladins/shamans, it'd be pretty bad by itself. Also, because it's destroy, I would think that deathrattles still trigger, so not too great against Cairne and not terrible against Sylvanas. You could also combo it with...

New Druid card revealed for Naxx. Poison Seeds - 4 mana, destroy all minions and replace them with 2/2 treants

Unless you have 6 piece Jade Harvesters, Soul Harvest isn't going to melt faces like in the vid. Keep firebomb otherwise you're going to be sitting on your ass while dots tick

It works fine, though it might not be optimal. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything there

Why not +poison damage and Rabid Dogs, Big Stinker, and Locust Swarm? I'm talking mid-range here, not T6
