    Could still have done all that with the nerfed stats I keep bringing up. Card is unreal dumb.

    Even as a food mirror this finals has been pretty great.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Keep seeing Fitzpatrick highlights from the Steelers games and it annoys me.

    Field is not on the same level as Valakut was. Oko is real nonsense though. It could have been 1 less loyalty and the +1 ability could be 0 cost and it would still be a good card in a good deck. I understand wanting to push walkers since they're usually the face of a set, but this one was...

    Yeah but that was really a planeswalker deck that often ran midrange creatures too.

    Also the difference between the various Jace decks was much more significant than the differences between the Oko decks. Almost all of the Oko decks are food decks with the same core of ~ 20 cards or so. That means that they all have over half the same spells. Jace decks had some variety...

    Colts starting Hoyer and still 11 point favorites. Take the Dolphins and the points and make some money!

    This is far worse than even Jace was. Jace wasn't even very good when it was first released due to it being poor against the Bloodbraid Elf Jund decks. It really didn't see that much play until after Shards block rotated out. Even after rotation there was enough things like Valakut etc that...

    So top 4 of the MC is 4 Oko decks. Very exciting.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Yeah, that's certainly part of it. Only won 1 playoff game since Marino left after the 1999 season, but only 2 really, really bad seasons in that time so pretty much the definition of mediocre. Plus as I said having an actual plan is kind of nice instead of just trying to patch shit year to...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    It's kind of weird. This season doesn't actually feel as bad as the usual ~ 8 win seasons. Like the coach actually has them playing hard and they blew it up to accumulate draft capital so there's a plan in place. So there's some optimism. At least until they fuck up all those draft picks and...

    Normal Momir has far more interesting combat since creatures have much more variety in stats. That said these games were definitely fast because usually one side gets a dominating board state real fast. Took 9 games for me to get my 5 wins and literally none of them had interesting combat.

    This format is even more random than momir which is kind of hilarious.

    MTG: Arena

    I mean it's a troll event and nobody expects it to be anything but extremely high variance. Anything involving tokens or card draw etc is just wildly silly. It's pretty amusing and getting the cosmetic stuff is kind of cool, but I can't imagine anyone takes the format seriously.
  17. Sterling

    MTG: Arena

    The oko event is hilarious. You have to make proper attacks which is much less of thing with everyone having a bunch of 3/3s, but you get some real dumb things. I had my opponent get a magmatic force on turn 1 lol, how do you beat that? then I had a turn 1 green cavalier into howling giant...

    He could have really stirred the pot and brought up Danny White!

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I mean for Rodgers to match Brady's TD/Int ratio he'd have to throw 36 interceptions before he threw another TD. Or for Brady to achieve the same ratio as Rodgers he'd only need to throw 231 more TDs without throwing an INT and Brady is 3rd on the all time list. It's actually an absurd stat.

    Era matters obviously. That said I always felt like Aikman is pretty overrated. Obviously real good but those teams were fucking loaded.

    So the MC top 8 is 6 Oko decks, a GW adventure deck and a GB adventure deck. Nice format.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    My argument this whole time is Rivers gets in and none of those others should. You're the one that keeps bringing up all these other players. Rivers has a much better record overall than Stafford and Eli, has better stats than Eli by a mile and Eli's entire claim is 2 fluky playoff runs that...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    He might, but he's clearly worse than Rivers.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Also you list a bunch of dudes that are worse than Rivers. Rivers is better than all those dudes and Romo would have needed a few more seasons to be in any kind of serious HoF discussion.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    He's better than Stafford and Eli. Romo didn't have the longevity to get in. There's a line somewhere, I just think Rivers is probably just over it. There's plenty of dudes in the HoF that were real good but never the best at their position for a single season. Longevity matters.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Except that's never been what it is. And being a B+ player for 15 years is a thing. That makes it more like an A- career. He's better than many players that are in the HoF and it's still not nearly as bad as the Basketball HoF. Joe Dumars is in that one.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I mean the best QB to not win a SB is Marino. I don't think you'd find many people that would argue that. That said Rivers has to be pretty far up the list.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Chargers have definitely had some underwhelming seasons. But team sport and all that. He's definitely had more shit the bed games than you'd have liked to see though, and that's certainly on him.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Sure, maybe he's not top shelf elite, but there's a much smaller gap between that and him than him and the average NFL QB.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    He'll end with 60k+ yards, 400 TDs, and a 95 passer rating. 8 pro bowls. Dude's going to be in the HoF. So being top ~ 15 to 20 or so all time is mediocre?

    That's what I would think is probably true. Would still like specifics.

    Yeah those are 2 very different things. If he's just butthurt because they made a gazillion dollars off his IP because he wanted a lump sum and not points that's on him. If he just licensed the shit for 1 game and they made 3 that's totally fucked. Need some actual specifics.

    Oh for sure, having one in your opening hand gives lets you keep so many hands you might have to mulligan if it was a land or creature because it can be either. 69 percent Oko decks, and probably like 80-85 percent green decks in general since you'll have adventure decks of both flavors and...

    Certainly possible. It's kind of a strange card, the first one is so much better than subsequent ones by such a huge amount.

    It's the most skewed any PT/MC format ever I'm pretty sure. More than Jace, BBE Jund, Affinity, pretty sure even Rebel Block constructed was this bad lol. So dumb.

    69 percent of decks at this weekends MC are running Oko. Wonder if that was predictable? Nice format.

    Netflix has a lot of good content. 99 percent is so wildly exaggerated it's absurd.
