    I did the Arena thing too, but got burnt out for the same reason. If you want to do anything remotely janky or "different" you're just going to lose most of the time. I think my favorite deck was red/black using cards like Involuntary Employment to get opponents' creatures, hitting them with...

    What format do you play? I only play casual commander at a game store once a week. The card pool for commander is large enough that you can make any sort of stupid deck work. I try to use commanders that aren't very common (aka at least one person has a Nekusar, Kenrith, Miirym Sentinel Wurm...

    This is about where I'm at. It went from "I would never hire someone to be the DM of a game. That's just ridiculous." to "Yeah I can swing $50 a week for someone else to run this shit so I can be entertained."

    Miami still has the 49er's 1st round pick. Tua could work out, Lance could suck, and Miami will trade that pick back for a king's ransom from some other team that needs to draft a qb next year!!!111one (I'm coping! I'm coping!) I just find it interesting that Miami is getting punished for...

    2022 NFL Offseason Thread: Looking forward Tua better future!

    It's a mistake by Cinci to not invest more into the O-line imo. There was an 18 game streak (over 2 seasons) where Dan Marino wasn't sacked once. In the 1988 season, Marino was only sacked 7 times. I'm not saying you shouldn't pay your WR's, but Burrow with a good O-line would be a pairing that...

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    Looks like your typical D&D night with friends. Most campaigns I've ever played are never more than half serious, and even the more serious ones have their moments every session that devolves into some sort of ridiculous hilarity.

    Of course he's broke. He plays Magic: The Gathering. But imagine what a good deal you can get buying his whole collection when he's desperate for money!

    Eh, it's art. I'm gonna like some of it, I'm not gonna like some of it. I know several people that like those old school black & white Baldur's Gate art cards but they're not for me.

    I would love for an MTG artist to follow the style of Larry Elmore or Keith Parkinson. Those were my favorites back in the day. *Obviously they didn't do magic cards as far as I know.

    Im buying a business and I already can't sleep.

    June 11th was 2 months since I took over. I think I made some money? I got my POS system linked up into Quickbooks and it's syncing over all the sales data, but I had a bunch of questions for my accountant about where to enter expenses into the different categories. After trying to do that for a...

    I make special decks to finish off dailies. Kill creatures? White/black. Play lands? Green. Cast spells? Just a bunch of bad aggro decks that are mono/duo colored.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Optimistically, Starfield in 2023, ESVI in 2028, Fallout 5 in 2032. Starting the hype train extra early. Great: I'm already wondering what city they'll pick.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I can forgive some planets being boring if they're a spectacle. Tidally locked planets where everyone builds on the equator because the sunward side is too hot, and the far side is too cold. Mercury supposedly has pools of frozen water at the bottom of some of its deeper craters despite cooking...

    Picked these up in clearance at Gamestop for $25 each. Probably not a big deal for most but my whole collection is only about 1000 cards so it feels like a good deal to me.

    Excited to see what they are making. Even more excited to see the mods that'll be out 5 years after launch that populate the planets more, improve space combat, make settlement building/management easier, etc.

    Kinda got tired of Arena. Still logging in to do some dailies and save gold for the future I guess. Lots of people say Kamigawa draft was amazing, so I'm waiting for that quick draft to rotate back in to spend my gold. Also the waiting for people to make up their mind sucks. And playing a lot of...

    Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader (CRPG)

    I'm usually in the "don't preorder" camp, but they've done well with kickstarters and both Pathfinder games. I know they'll be pretty buggy in the beginning the but the games ended up being pretty great all around. It's also hard to find some pretty solid epic RPG storylines that hit a lot of...

    Can't recall 100% but I think I remember the Russo Brothers addressed this in an interview. Thor was actually more powerful when he fought Thanos alongside Cap and Iron Man during Endgame. Wanda and Dr. Strange can also be gross mismatches because they are ranged DPS with lots of CC in a world...

    Yeah those are lessons learned that I'm taking in when it comes to drafting. I didn't consider Make Disappear but in retrospect I can't believe I overlooked it. The second time I prioritized color unity to avoid any mana issues, and then fliers after that. It's hard to remember all the cards I...

    Just kind of fell out of basketball but as a Heat fan I hope it's the Heat-Warriors (obviously). Warriors definitely have the edge against either Miami or Boston, but I don't think Boston has the potential to rise to the challenge of facing Golden State in the finals. They're just young and...

    Sample size of 3 but looks like my main problem was not enough reps and not knowing the cards in the set for drafting. After taking a good beating all week playing games it's getting better. First draft I went 1-3 trying RG with Black splash. Second time I went 3-3, and third draft I went 7-2...

    Not putting Orks as one of the four decks is a mistake, IMO. Would be a much better draw for a crossover because Orks are one of the few factions in 40k that's "fun". They have to go ultra hard and make everything super grimdark when 40k used to have a little bit more humor and lightheartedness...
