    Amusingly on-theme for a College set, the Crux of Fate archive art has plagiarized portions, dude just reposed a deviantart image of Bolas. Said plagiarist is also a big proponent of NFTs, which seems pretty ironic.

    Most of the issue is that idiots actually went after her directly instead of just laughing at it on public boards. Which is... pretty much par for the course on the internet, regardless of what's going on.

    I've been playing the shit out of Flesh and Blood. I really enjoy the game. The weekly $20 tournaments with $300 promos help. I am definitely way positive expenditure vs return on the game. Definitely not diamond hands tho, I sell my promos and excess as I get them. I love CCGs, but I have...

    I can feel the hipsters of the coast article attacking magic players for being misogynistic gatekeepers for not liking the art typing itself.

    I'm really missing physical tournament play. I like EDH, but a year of nothing but EDH sucks. Also, this habit is considerably more expensive with no store credit/prize boxes.

    Warhammer 40k

    The tournament scene is moving more towards being GW run, they hired the folks who ran the largest tournament circuit and have been publishing official tournament rules and updating points cost for balance more frequently.

    Well, officially increasing the cost of standard by 20% by going to expansion-every-2-months wallet brutality. Non-Arena standard was already on the ropes, so this might be "Finish Him." July 16-Forgotten Realms September 17-Innistrad werewolves November 19-Innistrad vampires

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    I can't remember the name of it, but there was a d2 mod I loved that massively increased the types/values of Charms in game, and had an super costly cube recipe to turn them into permanent boosts. Also updated spell synergy bonuses to try to make more viable builds.

    Thomas Delauer gives me the impression that he'll say literally anything someone gives him money to say. He's got like a dozen different youtube channels for specific product lines.

    Both are great. Really hoping for a gaia project expansion with some more races. We've been trying out The Colonists the last two weeks, really having a good time with it. 5-6 hour game, but somehow doesn't manage to feel slow/long during play. The colonies everyone has access to are...

    Noon-to-8pm eating window (So 16 hour intermittent fast) for most of the last year and a half, noon-to-6 when I was in coding bootcamp so was able to cook at home more conveniently. Probably going to eventually end up on the "one meal a day" train eventually, since that's most convenient...

    Going intermittent fasting was the easiest change I ever made and shaved 75 pounds off my fat ass. Lost another 40 pounds last year with Keto before I fell off the wagon with grief eating. Church ladies dropping off plates of cookies is a nice sentiment but not what I should have had. Getting...

    They did release a statement to that effect, back when they released Dominaria. It was largely a pile of lies. :D

    Each pack has one "old border" card in it, chance for it to be foil. The Old-Border stuff is things that weren't actually in Time Spiral Block, it's kind of an "homage" to the Purple-symbol timeshifted subset, except instead of dragging random shit from the past into the present, it's dragging...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    My favorite was when the players realized item level was complete nonsense, and that the newbie gun was the best gun in the game by a country mile once your character's item level started increasing. Your displayed damage (including the actual damage numbers popping off) had nothing to do with...

    Eh, not getting potter vibes, it's Wizard College. The houses track much more closely to degree programs than any sorting hat nonsense. WotC has done wizard academies before as prominent plot locations/points. If anything it's more weeaboo shit story for the Kenrith twins. Already had a...

    Picked up a Foil Full art Ron Spencer Mana Crypt in a trade, which was probably a dumb use of trade equity. Do I further compound the bad choices by getting Ron to sign it? Basically all my Ron Spencer cards are signed by him, including the commons, because when he was still an active artist...

    The real bet would be whether they fuck up normal d2 somehow in the process of releasing the remaster, like they did with Warcraft 3
