    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The asinine decision to make the leveling process so much more difficult was one of the reasons I have not logged on in 3 weeks. I am used to capping a character out to a point and then starting to level others. Its amazing how many stupid ideas they had for this game. Its like the game is a...

    College Football 2018-2019 Season

    As a UGA fan, it makes me sad to realize that the only way we beat Alabama is if the Quarterback does not play in the game. Even then, it would be a close game. If Alabama stays healthy, they win the National Championship again. Sigh...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    So I took a week off thinking I just needed to step away from the game. Three weeks later and I have no urge to log back in. I really do think that this time they screwed the pooch with this expansion. You really should never shit where you eat and yet here we are. I miss the days of actually...

    Hearthstone

    Given that this game has become a "We just add cards for you to buy" instead of adding new kinds of play formats, makes it easy to hate on this game. Magic Arena also helps to make it easy to hate on this game. I have enjoyed the variety of formats that game offers. As an example, they have...

    MTG: Arena

    Trying to find that deck list. I am missing Immortal Sun but could get one tommorrow. I am pretty sure I would have the rest of it.

    The Equalizer 2 (2018)

    I enjoyed this enough but the villain felt weak. EQ1 had a much better villain who at least seemed to have had a shot at killing the main character. The first 30 minutes were the best part as it continued more in vein with the show as he was randomly helping people that needed it. I chuckled at...

    Fromm was much better this time. Wish we had that Fromm against LSU but as long as that Fromm shows up we have a shot in the SEC championship.

    Show me your deck list with Dimir please.

    MTG: Arena

    I doubt that was their only motivation. Artifact would be another reason they needed to release. That game has a lot of promise but I am concerned with the limited amount of deck possibilities that Arfifact might get old a lot faster than Arena until they get a few sets out. I am trying to get...

    The Sad, sad, state of MMORPG in this brave new era...

    Of all the PvP oriented play in online games, I feel Ultima Online and Dark Ages of Camelot came as close to a perfectly based format as you can get. Ultima Online had safe areas that were no longer safe when you ventured out to explore. There were many ways to get out of a town and so a...

    MTG: Arena

    The memory of Hearthstone is alive and well in this new charity event. If you LOVE random then this event is all for you. I used up 100 gems and realized how much I hated Hearthstone. There is some strategy in that not playing the first time around allows you to get to larger creatures without...

    MTG: Arena

    Actually, there is no advantage to winning, save for the dailies rewards. Unlike Hearthstone, there is no reward for rank. I am not even sure exactly how the rank system works because there are no numbers to compare. At first I would get upset about losing rank and then I realized there is no...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    I showed my wife this video. She almost spit her water out with the poker face look. I like how he feels the need to let out his inner insane.

    Hearthstone

    I am having a very easy time not playing this game now that Magic Arena is out. All I wished HS would have done was come out with better formats of play. Blizzard always had to retune and rebalance their Arena game when the game itself was half the problem. The ladder system was fun, but the...

    MTG: Arena

    I have had no issues with disconnections. Teferi is all around the best Planeswalker in the current environment. The only problem I had with him was when I made a newbie mistake and forgot that his second ability requires cards in the graveyard. I am working towards a big green deck now. Green...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I believe those numbers. I am willing to bet that the sub number will drop under 1 million for the first time in many years in about 2 months. If not for the ability to pay with gold, the numbers would even be lower. This expansion was atrocious in all ways save for music and environment. I was...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    I do think that eventually this game will come out. It just seems like a lot of work and effort looks to be going into this game. That video showed a lot and I can only imagine how much fun it would be to explore all of these very detailed worlds. Yes it was still buggy but every year those bugs...

    MTG: Arena

    Now I can confirm that the free cards can be any type at any point. I got another Mythic rare and a rare in the same day. Spent a little bit more money because I wanted to build a good White/red deck that eats up a lot of the blue/red ones. I figure the time I spend playing this game makes it...

    College Football 2018-2019 Season

    So, I am no longer a fan of Jake Fromm. I think he is way over rated and that Justin Fields needs to be given serious consideration. If that had been Alabama, Nick Saban would have sat Jake Fromm down mid second quarter and allowed Justin to truly see if he needed to take over. Playing Justin...

    MTG: Arena

    Thanks to the dailies, it really scratches the itch. I can verify that the free cards you get in the dailies can be an Epic rare. At the very least it is an uncommon which after a while will help with the vault.

    MTG: Arena

    Is there a vault? I wonder if this is just some fairy tale told to new players to entice them to spend more money. They removed the simple to replace icon that showed progress on it and so I wonder if it even exists at this point.

    MTG: Arena

    I could also use a code if any more exist. I got the Planes Walkers but missed the free sealed code. So it is worth doing the dailies for the free cards. You get the occasional rare and I got a dual land. I get an uncommon every time save for the one rare that can pop up. I have yet to get a...

    It has been a while for me. Magic Arena is all I need until Artifact comes out.

    MTG: Arena

    Well I got my ass kicked on my 4th Draft. Went White/Green. I had better control but it lacked the bang due to the game/people also drafting white. My first match I went against a beautiful white blue deck that had a fantastic draw with great synergy. Then I went against another white/green...

    MTG: Arena

    There might not be any broke enchantments but it is amazing how powerful that draw effect gets. I just went 7-0 with that deck. I played Hearthstone for 2+ years and played Arena 50+ times over the years and I never won more than 9 games. I play my 2nd Draft in Magic and go undefeated. Skill...

    MTG: Arena

    I have not played Magic in years, so my first game in my current draft was against a Dimir deck, I think. It had the survey mechanic. I am playing green/white and was able to pull out that victory. My first Draft I went 5 wins with a mono-green. I enjoyed the enchantments that Green gets. My...

    Hearthstone

    Yes, It is called Magic Arena and hopefully Artifact. Nothing fights a good addiction like replacing it with another one. Its like how Marijuana would help with the opioid crisis, but that is another forum subject.

    Not that I have found. It would be silly for them not to add one but who knows. If they do, I also hope they add a way to duel a player on the friend's list.

    MTG: Arena

    I understand. The most frustrating part of Magic is the mana source requirement. It is a major reason I enjoyed Hearthstone. Having played about 50 games now with Magic Arena, I can honestly say that the card shuffler seems pretty good to me. There were times that I swore that Hearthstone's...

    Hearthstone

    Hearthstone does have positives to its game play. I do like not having to be concerned with mana. Many of the card interactions are also entertaining along with the voice over on all the cards. The game plays very easy. I just got to a point where I realized that the random was too random. It...

    Hearthstone

    I have been playing MTG Arena and have been enjoying it so much more. Random is always a thing but Hearthstone had a kind of random that would just irritate the shit out of me. I also got tired of the lack of formats of play. It does fine on the one player content but as old as this game is it...

    MTG: Arena

    I find myself enjoying this game. Is that wrong???? I do not agree with Format(Draft, Sealed) packs not advancing the wild card meter but I have really enjoyed the play aspect. I broke down and spent the 4.99. So far the game plays nice and smooth. While I did not miss the need for mana, I...

    College Football 2018-2019 Season

    Georgia still looks like it is the start of the season. UGA cannot afford to commit the kind of fouls we did, against a team like LSU. We got stupid lucky with that fumble. The offensive line needs to show better cohesion as teams are still getting players through faster than they should. Our...

    A Star Is Born (2018)

    That is actually a nice song. There is no doubt that Lady Gaga can sing and Bradley Cooper holds his own. Might be a really nice movie worth checking out.

    Artifact - The DOTA Card Game

    My favorite quote from that interview this guys had. "The game gets into player hands sooner and we have a ton of runway for adding interesting features and modes after launch. I really wish Hearthstone could have actually added more play modes to their game.

    College Football 2018-2019 Season

    UGA Won but our offense did not look like a #2 team in the nation. We cannot play like that against LSU and expect to win. A win is a win but we have a lot to improve on. I loved Kirby Smart being interviewed at the half. He looked about ready to explode. You could tell that his half time...

    College Football 2018-2019 Season

    This will be UGA's 2nd test. Missouri has a good run defense, so our offensive line will get a chance to show itself. UGA should win this game with some confidence but anything can happen. I think UGA's first real test comes up in a few weeks verse LSU but it is nice that the team will have some...

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    This was a lot better than The Last Jedi. It still was fairly bland but at least the story was descent. It is odd how the side stories for me are better told then the main stories. I am still not going to pay money to watch number 9. After the disaster that was 8, I will stick with the Marvel...

    Captain Marvel (2019)

    She is potentially the most powerful super hero in the Marvel Universe and you think she should act like...??? A preview is not going to show the actual "Acting". Its meant to tease at the story. What I saw was a bit of "Yes I can beat you into atoms" combined with confusion. The confusion seems...
