    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    See, it's all very easy to explain. A mighty Wizard in a neighboring galaxy is trying to summon a Microwave, resulting in a very slight pull on Earth's microwaves, most of which are firmly ensconced in wall units and thus the pull isn't noticeable. Easy shit.

    Agreed. And having shitty classes creates a natural habitat for the hipsters and terrible players to dwell in where they can blame their mediocrity on class design and/or pat themselves on the back for doing well because "people just don't understand how to play this class right, unlike my...

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

    Reinstalled this friday to have a whirl with the new expansion release weekend promos. The Sealed Gauntlet is pretty fun. New limited cards are enjoyable. Still seems like there are a lot of people with no idea how to play a CCG in the tournament queues. Playing with Fire is hilarious...

    The Azn Weeaboo Fightan Cards kids are where a lot of that seems to come from. Pretty much every YGO=>Magic Convert I've met posts their decklists as pictures-of-the-splayed-cards.

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

    Last time I played, the minimum-price restrictions on the AH made it pretty impossible to sell bulk-style cards, since you were required to list it at 2-10x what it "should" be.

    Wait, this is brilliant. The future of MMOs: Massively Multiplayer Kart Racing. On a persistent, Voxel-track. With full voice acting for the GoKarts, going "vvvroom vrrroom vvvvvvrRRoom."

    They need to backpedal to being subscription model, so that they can pre-sell $500 lifetime subs.

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    The word "successful" is used far too often in that article. It does say he might come back in another position, though. Guess someone has to work the break-room Fry-a-lator if you want fresh Mozzarella Sticks on hand.

    Race for the Galaxy Expansions were awkward because you either had to unsort out the other expansions to use the new one, or just add it to a growing mass of non-synergistic dreck. Terra Mystica is a good time. Some real imbalance in the races though, so doing opening Victory Point bidding...

    But then Billy The Rogue would be expected to do something other than be melee DPS #5 on fights that really hate melee DPS. And that would be a negative play experience.

    Jenga started selling its 2-for-the-price-of-1-bundle like a week before the attack. The sign was clear. Twin towers were collapsing for at least a week before the twin towers collapsed.

    It was also amusing watching him get 100% hard-countered by Hoogland's deck. Colorless Creatures, instant-speed Wraths, and Counterspells hoooooo.

    @a_skeleton_03: If you watch the footage from his games, it didn't matter that Tutelage didn't trigger from it. He was using it to restock on Fogs. Treasure Cruise delves non-fog cards out of your graveyard, improving your deck-composition for Fog re-draws. Once the deck is set-up, it only...

    Replacing pack prizes for winning with other things is a good move. Market is way flooded with packs, and they need to restrict the faucet somehow to bring their value back up to something more healthy. Doubling entry price was a dumb move, though. If your goal is to make events feel worth...

    However, I like that it looks like a deck with a lot of room left for tweaking. The numbers are relatively raw at this point.

    Well, time to test out some Dwynen's Elites at tomorrow's PPTQ. Elite creates a lot more "nut" play-sequences, but it was painful making the cuts to slot him in. Got 2nd at the last one I was in using my pre-Origins Elves, missed the win by 1 point of damage in both game 1 and 3. Still not...

    I just always keep track of my life on a lifepad, even in casual play at this point. Way too much random shit happens to dice/spinners/duelist abacuses during play.

    There are still a bunch of tier 2 Modern decks that build for 50-60 (Ux Tron is pretty fun, and does decently on MODO), but even the 'cheap' tier 1 stuff has become non-cheap over the last year. My eyes still cross when I see $30+ Goblin Guides. I'd suggest waiting for a couple things before...

    Managed to dodge all the amazing 2-drops in the format in order to pilot my Curve-Starts-At-3 (not by choice) R/W Control deck to a finals prize split. Every time you play Gideon's Phalanx, it is the best feeling.

    Yeah, in order for our stores to survive they pretty much had to all get together at a Perkins, avoid strangling each other for a couple hours, and plot out a non-conflicting PPTQ/GPT schedule.
