ah.. and this post made me realize it's two different splits even *I* was talking about. Myrlynn/zamtil left before Velious ever came out. I had lumped the name 'krurk' in with that split, but his was later. Myrlynn briefly checked out SolRo. I only know this as I grouped with him a few times...

What exactly happened that caused the split between FoH? I know Myrlynn was technically guild leader originally, but furor led the raids (before 'raid leader' was a common position)? From an outsider perspective, seemed like a group split off (myrlynn, zamtil, krurk, etc..) all around the same...

Yep, thanks for clarifying that stuff. You were closer to it then I was.

Yea, he was Kalaran. Him, some other rogue (who's name started with K as well, I think), Zamtil and a healer (druid?) power leveled to 50 using the early form of 'whirl till you hurl'. It would stun and spin the mob, so each rogue could stand there and backstab it and you didn't need a real...

Actually, after thinking about it (didn't watch much coverage of either day) the RDW deck probably beats up on the R/B aggro decks somewhat. Being more consistent and doing similar things.

I mean.. you aren't wrong, but the problem is more the diversity and resiliency of the threats. Scrapheap scrounger, heart of kiran, bomat courier, Chandra and (to a lesser extent) walking ballista are the problems. Otherwise, control would feast on these decks with sweepers. Fumigate does...

The devs have said it is, yea, but no time table given. It was in one of the recent 'state of the beta' posts that Chris makes on the beta forums. I wish it would happen as soon as possible. The economy is such a grindfest, and then the deck you work on for a month+ can suddenly become worthless...

Yea, I was also a little confused by that interaction. In the Ixalan story, completely different dialogue happens. Someone, they didn't name them (sounded like either Jhoira or Jaya) says something like 'who's the nerd?' when he shows up, but that doesn't happen in the Dominaria story. Figured...

When I heard it, it sounded crazy, but after reading the article I understand. The cards aren't good, they won't get played at anything above an FNM level event, but it lets rando newbie play their planeswalker deck at FNM. It's really not any crazier then the other cards in planeswalker decks...

It would make sense after his girl convinced him to sell out, but earn has been trying to get him to do that for awhile now. I dont get why earn didnt try to argue the point. Like.. 'hey, remember that concert at the music company you walked out on? Yea.. that would have helped your career'. Its...

Glad to see people just getting into the game now can already see the issues with the economy. Was starting to think maybe I was too close to it (the game and beta) and wasn't seeing things clearly anymore. We've been bitching about the issue for months, and they just don't seem to want to...

If you think wildcards come fast, you've spent at least $50 on the game in the first few days. Based on how many you say you've gotten, you spent over $100. A mythic wc comes every 25-30 packs. If you've gotten 8, ignoring the 1 or 2 you might have gotten from vaults, you opened over 100 packs...

so, you'll never solve the issue completely, but playing lands that have some other kind of effect, and then playing 1-2 more lands then you'd normally think, can help alleviate the issue. ex: Your deck only needs 22 lands to operate, but you play 23/24 instead to combat mana screw, BUT you also...

see... if they animated all the cards like that for the foil versions on arena, they could be alot more generous with the regular versions of cards and make tons of money on people chasing the premium versions of cards. It would make the game a ton more popular overall too. It's such a shame...

"In addition, packs that you open during a Draft event (see below) will count towards your Vault progress. " This is wrong, they clarified on the beta forums. Chris mispoke on the stream that people are getting that tidbit from, we are guessing it WAS that way and got changed late in the...

yea, this was years ago, but he paused and gave a look of like 'ok.. it resolves' head nod, type of thing, I'm pretty sure. The kid called a judge even, but unfortunately that was how the card is worded and he just hadn't realized. He did agree that it was targeting the opponent, thinking of...

To be a jerk who is trying to make your opponent screw up because you are an asshat. "oh you didn't realize my manland was activated cause it's hidden in the back? oh, sucks to be you i guess'. I hated those guys at tournaments, beat them anyways was the sad thing. The best players in the...

No, thats not how i took that at all. Its not 'lenny' making decisions, its farouk. He has complete control over the other personalities when he wants. David said something about that, like 'he brings up other minds at will' when he was talking to half face guy. Lenny and Farouk's conversation...

that episode was great. I sat down to just watch a few minutes of it, before I was gonna leave to go see a movie with a friend, but completely lost track of time until the episode was almost over. It had me just completely transfixed. I thought that was glover under there, but wasn't...

oh, that's what happened.. I heard them talking about a 'personal tragedy' in his life, but they were respecting his privacy and not talking about it. Damn.. that's really fucked up. I was just guessing one of his parents died due to an illness or something.

I like to think that the dance battle did actually happen, not just as his mind interpreting a psychic battle, as a sort of proxy of fighting. Like, they were all demonstrating their abilty to control other people's minds to coordinate the dance. But, there was also a battle going on...

no idea who that is, but that card is cool. Could be sick if the meta shakes out for a main deck negate to be playable.

This set's power level keeps looking higher and higher. While I'm certainly evaluating some cards in a 'blue sky' scenario, there's enough 'eh.. that COULD be broken if the right shell is there' that at least a few of them will likely work out. Wizard tribal is starting to look pretty damn...

Yep! That's my thoughts, too. Especially if you think about when they realized they were over doing it on the masterpieces, they couldn't undo the amonkhet ones by that point, and core would have been getting close to finalized. Guarantee someone was like 'well, if we bring back core sets, how...

Oh, and ithink they figure itll sell plenty well without masterpieces and they will put those in sets they need to pump sales on more then anything :-D

Idk man. I think the legendary theme is clouding people's ability to evaluate stuff or they arent thinking of everything as a whole. Weatherlight isnt as good as smugglers copter, but a 4/5 flyer for 4 that impulses when it hits? Its not the worst.. prolly too slow for constructed, but if the...

I always liked her more, now i know why, she is my kind of kinky :p

I did like how the writers even referred to the new penny as Penny23. Having him replace Penny40 in the Unity key was a pretty solid 'old penny really is staying in the underworld now' I think. Maybe he has a cameo at some point, but the writers have mostly written him off. Likely, Penny23 and...

I'm not quite done with tonight's episode, but the political campaign montage was pretty LOL.

Well, I wouldn't count the first half of the split in evaluating any of these teams. They've all changed considerably. The further away the games were, the less relevant they are. Yes, I'm putting a lot on that match, but it was a bo5, not a bo1. We should put more emphasis into how they played...

LOL! I can totally see a bug like this happening on day 1, requiring a hotfix within a few hours or just taking it down completely.

so.. i've never followed much of the general forums on here, so i missed most of Lumi's craziness and don't know what happened to him, but I think I found him on the arena beta forums :-/ Same nickname, and he's being quite ridiculous.

so, you are gonna become somewhat familiar with basic electricity by being a vaper, if you aren't already. The resistance (ohms) of the coil determine what wattage can be run through it. The higher the ohms, the lower the wattage needed to get it to create heat. Any coil under 1 ohm is...

ohh.. yea, you had a really high level of nicotine in that juice. You want between 3-6mg in sub-ohm tanks, generally. Think of it this way, the more vapor being produced (clouds) the more of the liquid you are using at once. Subohm tanks vaporize a lot of the liquid at once, which produces the...

To get bigger clouds/flavor with less of a throat hit, yea you wanna go sub-ohm with higher VG juice (70/30 to 90/10 range). I'm honestly not familiar with nic salt juices, though. The alien should work with any tank that uses 510 threading (which should be basically all of them) you just put...

Captain Marvel takes place in the past, does it not? He'll just be playing his old self, an agent of SHIELD, under Fury.

I think that's a bias from the split. Hakuho is playing like the best support in the league, and some pros have been saying he is for most of the split. Febiven might be the best mid laner in NA right now, and he was in the conversation all year. Lira slumped a little this year, but he seems...

Zven looked bad in all their losses. Not even talking about lane, he was always getting caught near the start of every team fight. I dunno if he was just off his game cause they got wrecked in laning, or what. I just watched the highlights, so it didnt show lane phase. A couple of the times...

good story btw, re-linked it on a thread over there.

I sure hope so, it seems obvious to me and the majority of the beta forums that they could make a lot more by making the game cheaper. You let the whales buy up full foil/golden sets, but make it at least possible for a f2p/cheap player to compete with them. There was some posts on the board...
