    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Meh, apart from angel of dawn, which will probably be 4 of in any white deck ever, and reese, who will take some serious work to get out of a blue deck, almost every legendary has been fringe useful at best. The current complaining about titania is 100% focused on titania itself, which is a...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    The above two posters are harsh, but fair ;p Avoiding spending any money, you'll want to start off and do the tutorials, then the starter trails for whatever deck you picked, and after that is the frost ring arena. Don't pick bunnies as a starter deck, not only are they horrible, the starter...

    Presumably it's the group that hired them to start with. Doesn't look like they are going to be much protection now ;p

    The Brink (HBO) - June 21

    The two pilots have between a bit too over the top to be funny for me, but they were redeemed at the end of this episode. I laughed out loud through the credits.

    "I am *done* fixing things" Heh, didn't know the actor had it in him. Almost forgiven for most of warehouse13.

    Best is arguable, but I am enjoying Gate the most out of all the shows this season.

    Brave Frontier

    I'd disagree on the leader front - the drop checks on stuff these days is so huge that BC mods are almost useless. I switched from Kikkuri lead to Ultor lead and actually get more BC drops because stuff dies faster. Every arena squad should have selena and ultor if you can, the idol buff is...

    Penn & Teller: Fool Us

    Yeah, I had to research a lot of the moves he did in super slow motion. My verdict? What the actual fuck, no one is that good. Clearly a deal with the devil.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    As a FYI for anyone still playing, there is a gencon event going on at the moment in game, you get special packs that have exclusive items from this year, and previous convention years ( this year is a set of PVE cloud elementals with equipment, last years a number of exclusive mercenaries )...

    If you had any doubts that they are deliberately fucking with people, the thermostat reading 'All Dream Technologies' should put those to rest ;p

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Given the insane amounts of money flying around the AH, I'd be astonished if you couldn't make a tidy profit on the initial $500.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Set 3 released ! Finally added in chest opening. Still no PVE other than arena and starter trials sadly.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Nah, definitely not that. Blood DK, for example, can be perfectly adequate for 5 mans and world bosses etc, only ever using outbreak, blood boil and death strike. You could probably skip outbreak too. My vote is on 80% responsibility, and 20% not having any decent feedback on whether you are...

    Robbins continues to deliver. "Israelis love surprises !" "Is that true ?" "I don't care."

    Brave Frontier

    ATK buff is only the least effective because ATK buffs stack additively with SBB - i.e. 100% atk buff makes a 700% SBB 800% instead of 1400% - this makes it much less effective than it looks. Typing changes the base atk - 100% more atk from typing means you do double damage - it's vastly more...

    Summer 2015 Anime Thread

    Gate seems surprisingly well grounded all around for an anime. The reactions all round to putting celebrity junior lt in charge of an elite recon team were pretty funny, but not as funny as the lion of whatever - "Those first 40,000 guys had no idea what the fuck they were doing - WE on the...

    The Bard's Tale 4

    Don't remember if it was bards tale or wizardry, but one of them had non obvious teleporters that, in retrospect, were clearly designed to fuck with people trying to map things, I got caught by that one for a good few hours ;p

    True Detective

    Harrelson wasn't tested in S1 I think. He was basically playing the straight man, so was excused from having to do nonsense segues into meaningless blathering monologues. It's a testament to MM that he could make meaningless blathering monologues out of nowhere look compelling. The...

    They seem pretty self contained though, more like different stories in the same setting.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    You'd need to provide some examples to back that up, and also provide an alternative theory for why people who are not subscribed to WoW, and never have been, quit those games and then do not go back to WoW.

    Damned michele GGC just goes on and on and on and on and on and on. Pro-tip - focus fire Tiara first, otherwise you might end up with just her left and not quite doing enough damage to overcome her healing due to the monstrous BC drop resistance.

    Dark Matter

    My bet at this stage is on a particularly ballsy heist. One is either the guy who was sending help to the miners or one of his guys. He pretended to be Corso to get on the ship, then mindwiped the crew so he could get them to help the miners instead of killing them. It fills a few gaps in the...

    It's actually apexis bonus areas to date instead of since you picked up the quest. Autofinish for any played characters, but lesser played alts are SoL.

    Wait, what ? The vendor next to the tower in zangara sells you any offspec rings you want. Or does that change for the last stage ?

    Dark Matter

    It's not One's rap sheet. The guy at the end of the last episode was presumably the real Jace Corso. Lots of entertaining possibilities for where they take the plot from that one.

    He's alliance - get Defender Illona from Talador, stick her in the barracks as a bodyguard and you should be able to kill all the soloable rares. She is really an amazingly strong tank.

    He's probably used to weird boners, he has the strangest harem I have run across before - in addition to the token fangirl, an alien space zombie, a cyborg hermaphrodite and a 60ft tall tentacle monster ?

    Yeah, zero makes for a very poor contrast story and character wise. I still liked UBW, the comparison just made me sad for how good it could have been.

    The Brink (HBO) - June 21

    Mixed bag I thought - it started well with a fiiine pair of tits, but Jack Black was not even slightly amusing. They appear to be going mostly serious, rather than straight up playing for laughs. Has potential in any case.

    I liked dark matter better, but this one is ok. The main guy is a problem though, he was the worst character on warehouse13 and I can't shake that memory. Chick is super hot though.

    I was surprised by how quickly they moved the plot along. The wife did a good job of acting like she was pretty sure she was being fucked with, but still didn't want to look like an idiot ;p

    Silicon Valley

    This season was pretty fun, the porn deletion was almost offensively stupid though. Security doesn't work like that, networking doesn't work like that, FTP doesn't work like that, and what's worst, the motherfucking delete key doesn't work like that. A low point for the series IMO ;p

    IIRC from what they've said in show: Peter Gregory has 5% ( "$200,000 for 5%" ) Dinesh and Gilfoy have 3% each ( "Three ? That's weird, I thought you got in at the beginning" ) Haven't said what Jared has. Monica has something, wasn't clear if that was part of Peter's 5%, or in addition to...

    I quite enjoyed the pilot, will definitely watch more. It has basically no shred of originality but I like the setting and theme, and the characters aren't too bad, other than the token dickhead, who is just trying way too hard.
