Yeah, I'll give them a free pass on however they want to write the transition. Still, while a new galaxy has absolutely great potential, there was something kinda cool about an existing and ancient powerbase in the Milky Way. Who knows though, their options are wide open on how they go from...

I'll buy cosmetics if it is how I get to donate money to devs that I *want* to donate money to. PoE or DoTA2 or whatever, I'm all for a bit of cosmetics spending. I actually don't at all care about the items but there we are. HS? Not a chance in hell I would buy a cosmetic item. The game is...

I find Druid to be one of the more annoying classes to play but it isn't all garbage. I tend to find (some) success with a stop-and-go combo deck. Survive early pressure, get some draw, rely on combo and hope Emp shows up in a timely manner. Most of what I use is actually based on counters...

Yeah, we lost a chunk of the guild to DAoC. Hell, I even dabbled a bit there myself! The state at release was pretty embarrassing though. Almost everyone came back.

Yeah, I really like Control (or Chinese) Warrior right now and Patron makes a fun option now and again. Still, sometimes you just need to clear your brain and run Zoo/Face or similar. I used to run nothing but Handlock though so I'm pretty sure my brain is just likes long games with that sort of...

Well, I think that's what a lot of people are expecting will happen. At the pace Blizzard works, I doubt they'll change it anytime soon but if they do then yeah, that's the effect I'd bet on.

Books. These days, Wikimedia stuff and books and online resources and so on all fill that role. Fuck interacting with other people when trying to learn most things. People in person are great for "how do I do...?" but suck for anything else.

I never use the horse really. Sprinting-running from place to place isn't *that* slow and I pick herbs on the way. Long-D shit I fast travel. I was half sad slash happy that the horse-racing mini-games were trivial. I mean, as in my 45-year-old twitch found them one-shot each trivial. I...

Loving it so far. If nothing else it gave me a sorely needed excuse to upgrade my GPU/Monitor ("free" games thxla~). The game is gorgeous but yeah, I do miss the unapologetic smuttiness of 1 and to a lesser extent 2. A little T&A is always appreciated but it was more fun when everything you...

Yeah, there were flaws in the writing I suppose. I sure didn't give a shit though and I'm generally pretty nit-picky on that sort of thing. Fun movie was fun! Great tone, great scenes and spectacular job at hitting that Mad Max vibe.

I think it is likely just masking the load times.

Yeah, it *does* look nice indeed. The controls are... well, stylistically similar to the other ones. They work well enough for combat but are goddamned skittish for just walking around obstacles and the like. Combat is still actually more like Batman than Dark Souls but what the hell, it's fun!

We'll see how it shakes out (not that we had much time with 6.84b) but I think he did have to make some tweaks at least. I don't think anyone wants TI being played under this meta.

Saw him twice. Not much to say though. He lived well, died old, much respect for his ability. Hang Luclielle in the Hall of Fame and worry about the kids that don't "get" the legend. Last of a generation.

IceFrog better dance soon though. Not sure if **this** meta can shake out before the stage is set. It's not BAD right now but it sure is shitty for an ESport venue. 20m stomps that are known from first blood if not the draft? Worst possible outcome. The RAT was at least interesting as a sport...

I'm liking S4's drafts quite a bit.

I don't think they even have a name for what LGD just did to Not Today. REKT would be an understatement.

Control Warrior is just fun against Freeze Mage though! Your wombo combo isn't going to do much more than tickle, assuming you even live that long.

Well, Calgary looked a hell of a lot better than in game one... just not nearly good enough to actually win. We should take one at home but that's about it. Ducks in five is looking like the smart bet still.

Patron Warrior is going to be *so* cancerous this meta. It's not just that it is frighteningly good but that if you misread control then you are in even more trouble.

I'd love to see Calgary win but Ducks in five would probably be the smart bet. We'll see how they shape up tonight though, if they can keep playing above their level then anything is possible!

Hell, changing the cards is fucking fun if nothing else! I'm doing well (or at least feel like I am) with Dragadin, MechMagTweak, FUDru and even the soon-to-be-hated Repli-War. It is not the most solid meta but who gives a shit?

Flames edge out Vancouver! Not shocked but still, that one could have gone either way easily enough.

Love the game first off. Breaking the game is also fun though. Team Fansy (all Chanters, all GOOD TEAM of course) is kinda fun but also too effective I suppose. Kiting to summons works almost everywhere and even where it doesn't, chanters are all fine in full plate. I'll see if it is viable...

At least I beat up on the wanna-be mill r/ds. I love the concept (back when I was all about the mill/control/deny in MtG) but it is weird to execute in HS just because of the lack of defenders' choice. I don't think anything other than agro can really dominate unless something slants it hard.

Huh, some sort of bug on second heroic thing? Beat it now three times, hasn't saved once. Not a huge deal, the deck wins now 3 of 4 but still... why no checkmark??

Jesus, that one was a bit dark. It's good though and I can't complain about them pulling punches at least. All the characters do indeed have plenty of flaws to go around.

We've lost nothing, likely gained really. BBC fucked up and in a classic way. Pick on the "talent" all you want, they've got a right to get fed and looked after a bit and some moron missed the last call for food where they were situated. No big deal until you get into a fight about it. At...

San Francisco has some pretty good ISP options already though does it not? When staying with my sister she mentioned that her new building had it's own setup running 150/50 or so at least. Not exactly gigabit but better than most places.

Yeah, thought it might just be starting slowly but it's only gotten much worse.

Nice. Finally a title that gives me an excuse to buy a PS4!

That Sumail kid is pretty good period. I'm not sure how much of that is having ridiculous 15 year-old reflexes but hell, he actually makes pretty good decisions too for the most part. When he dominates he stomps as hard as any carry I've seen.

Well shit, after the nods here I went and watched Whiplash. How the hell did I miss such a great fucking movie! 10/10, will watch again.

Meh, when one peg sticks up too much and too consistently, it gets the hammer. At least they did nerfs with a relatively delicate touch, no one impacted is suddenly unplayable.

Classic C9.

Because the salty tears are fucking delicious! My usual watch-something-and-have-HS-open deck is MillMage. It is especially fun in the mech heavy meta.

Well, if you haven't tried out the Oil Rogue deck, I can only say that it is worth a spin. It plays a bit oddly (sort of a stop-and-go) but seriously, much fun in the present meta I think. You have control elements, rush elements and still some scary burst. The synergy between Blade Flurry...

The fuck is this shit? Man, half time just makes me feel old these days.

I don't think Boom *will* get the nerf but he probably should. No matter, since the demise of my Cancer deck I am having insane fun with netdecking a slight variation of the Oil Rogue deck (running +2 teachers, +1gadget and +1 owl off the normalish one, losing I forget what) and damn son, it...

Ha! I get negged more on this bullshit than ever from Noows? I openly trolled Pardo, Kaplan and Afrasiabi back when and although there were some mitigating circumstances, you are not them. Show yourself cowards and I'll destroy your fake science arguments. Well, that or sink into the abyss...
