    Also, thank you for the tips I am definitely working on things. I think I really need to find a group to play test with too. That will greatly help with figuring out errors in my plays.

    Been playing a bit with Conley Woods dredge deck in standard. It's actually super fun to play and also seem like with a few more tweaks it could definitely be tier 1.5.

    Top lane isn't a solo lane. As the "jungler" you stay top and just take/help with buff when needed. You generate so much extra gold it's ridiculous.

    So every single game I've been in today as jungler, top lane refuses to abuse Relic Shield. Like what the hell? Do people not want to win?

    Ended up dropping out of a sealed PTQ today at x-3 after round five of nine. The deck was solid (5 colour good stuff due to 3 Nylea's Presence, dual lands, and other fixers) but I keep making a few key mistakes. For example, I cast a Griptide Prognostic Sphinx. Also I tapped out on a Nylea's...

    Yeah I noticed that bug last night when top lane with a Garen. Trying to convince people in silver to do the new meta is like pulling teeth so I just pick OP jungles and carry that way.

    My girlfriend is in Japan on business and I was tempted to ask her to buy one for me. If only to play Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions on a big screen. The only issue is I'd have to have a Japanese PSN accountSo I think I can wait a little while until it's over here.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    I love it when commanders keep spawning gunships when I'm in the attack aircraft. They're like point pinatas and so easy to kill.

    If that's the case expect Riot to change it so that jungle is viable. That meta would be effin boring to watch e-Sports wise.

    Beyond that the gold changes really benefit him since gold was one of his biggest barriers as jungle. What do you build on him?

    So last week at FNM I played blue devotion splashing green for Master Biomancer and Fog, both in my side board. I did well and went two for two but in the two matches I lost, I got absolutely wrecked by WR aggro due to Chained to the Rocks. Do you guys have any suggestions for dealing with it...

    Not only is it a huge chunk but there is quite a bit of room for growth that won't be realized until real investments are made.

    We will see if they fix MTGO. I doubt they will considering thus has all happened before. Really, it will be sad watching Hearthstone eat MTGO's userbase because WotC/Hasbro doesn't have the sense to properly manage the project, or heck even pay developers a decent Seattle software developer...

    The client isn't that bad, and considering how small Riot was when first making League of Legends, Adobe Air was a smart choice. The game exploded in popularity and now Riot has to figure out a way to re-engineer it from the ground up while not taking away any old functionality and being able to...

    League Of Legends

    Considering that Adobe Air is dying, and in my discussions with Riot employees at events they've said that they've pushed the Adobe Air platform to its absolute limits in terms of scaling, and yes you can conclude that they are redoing the entire PvP.net client from the ground up. Those same...

    League Of Legends

    There is a completely rewritten PVP.net client coming, however re-engineering a mature codebase is a nightmare in the best of scenarios. It is not surprising Riot is keeping fairly quiet on that front until they have a solid launch plan in place.

    It would be freak'n awesome, and would give an avenue for retired players to continue to be relevant.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    DA2 had a lot of improvement over DA:O. Really, if you ignore the parachuting monsters and lazy level design DA:2 is arguably better than DA:O*. Granted those two things are huge aspects of the game, but the point stands. Plus Bioware was actually trying to do something somewhat unique with the...

    Just got finished playing on a demo Xbone. The new Kinect Sports looks next gen, especially the water effects in the jet ski game. Then tried a couple of rounds of Killer Instinct and it looked very much like it was running on a PS3/Xbox 360. Like there was a ridiculous amount of aliasing.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Flemeth was made out to be a villain quite clearly in the last DA:O DLC where Morrigan basically states Flemeth had a hand in the Blight and is planning something terrible. Now with Morrigan in DA:I I would put my money on Flemeth being the villain, or at least serving another master.

    Yeah jungle Nasus is about objectives, not farm. As Nasus if I am in the jungle farming my team is probably losing.

    Yeah, it was also pitifully easy to steal the enemy team's jets in BF3. You can still land jets in this one, though there isn't any real reason to land to repair anymore.

    As someone who jungles Nasus quite a bit, I've found his strength isn't in his Q stacks, his strength is his W and E. I just win so many fights off of those abilities despite not having many Q stacks.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    The single player is actually interesting for the first half (aka 2ish hours) then goes completely off the rails stupid. Just do it to get the weapon unlocks and don't touch it again.

    As someone who's seen his MMR rating this season I can say that a lot of assumptions people are making in this discussion are wrong. At the end of the day if there is information Riot is releasing that allows people to easily compute your real MMR Riot will make that information private. I...

    You turn to the side/wings to repair. Alternatively just flail about firing the repair tool until you see sparks.

    Sadly I had to cancel my PS4 preorder. Can't justify the cost with so few next gen games coming out. I'll pick one up after Christmas. BF4 being released early isn't too surprising. Luckily DICE has managed to fix most of the major crashes and the game itself is just fun. Given the nature of...

    Surprise surprise MTGO crashed during both the Magic Online Championship and the PTQ from this weekend. At least this time Brian Kibler was playing and he sounds pissed. Doubt anything will change though. Unless Wizards invests serious resources into improving Magic Online, then unifying it with...

    Basically all of the problems with this game will be fixed in the next few weeks. The actual game itself is fun and a bunch of the maps are a big improvement over BF3.

    I am still sad because the original dark matter ending seemed pretty compelling with the choice of letting the Reapers win and saving the universe or destroying the Reapers and possibly dooming the universe. Yeah the dark matter stuff was a little too hand wavey but whatever, the ending to...

    Not surprising since nVidia is heavily invested in Android in the mobile space. Edit: More to the point, SteamOS is going to have some major issues when it ships. Namely that the PS4 and Xbone will both have more feature complete OSs that'll let me use things like Netflix, Crunchyroll, and...
