I only "bought" one 11 pull with real money. I had money left over on my iTunes account after buying a Hearthstone expansion. The transaction didn't go through properly which resulted in both Apple and Blizzard crediting my account. That pull I got nothing from except for a couple of 4 star...

Small patch today for those who haven't seen it. You can now save "Favorite" parties which is super nice. You can create a bunch of different loadouts and swap between them really easily now. Devotion Record Materia is buffed. It sounds like it now increases MAG 20% up from 10%. One...

Most likely just a "special snowflake" who created his own deck. You see a lot more home brew decks early in the season. They can get wins because people don't know what to expect but they're rarely tightly tuned like a good netdeck and are often downright bad.

Great news. We are in dire need of a real expansion. 3,800 gold saved up so far in preparation of it.

So last week we had a good discussion Patron Warrior and how the best way to nerf it would be. Seeing as how this season, literally, half of my opponents have been Patron Warrior (I've been keeping track), I'm trying to figure out the best class/deck that counters them without being weak to...

All of these Lakers stories are awesome. They didn't just blow it. They blew it to a level of epicness that we might never see again in our lifetimes.

It's an order of operations things and it's not intuitive at first. You see it all the time when playing Mage against Oil Rogue when they SI:7 your Scientist. Basically battlecrys happen before something hits the table and deathrattles occur after it would hit the table. So in the Rifleman...

Yes Without a doubt. Damage causing warriors are a dime a dozen but warriors with good buffs are much harder to find and much more valuable.

Yeah. We are going to have one of the most ridiculous payrolls ever. We still need to unload Haywood and see what we can do there. But this free agency was all about retaining the core from last year. Just need to keep everyone healthy.

I think the whole Aldridge situation is the most compelling "storyline" of this Free Agency so far. It sounds like the Lakers really blew their shot at landing him. Sounds like they focused more on the "glitz and glamour" of being in L.A. rather than focusing on how they are going to win games...

And before I get called on it. Yes I think Lebron's tweets and passive aggressiveness were douche moves but that was more frustration than anything. Towards the end of the season and before Boston tore Love's arm off the group had much better chemistry and Love was contributing pretty strongly.

Honestly I think the whole Love situation last season was blown way out of proportion. I'm sure there were some disagreements and some discomfort between him and teammates but I think it was more growing pains than actual issues. I really think that "reporters" made it sound a lot worse than...

Did my game. Got my pack. See you next week!

That's my point. I like Tristin but I don't see him being worth what he's getting paid. But I guess it helps when Lebron wants you on his team and you share the same agent.

I really like Tristan. He plays hard and does a lot of little things that don't show up in stats but help win games. And he's a phenomenal rebounder. Especially on the offensive side. The thing is other players can fulfill a similar role. P.S. Posting stuff on an iPhone is annoying as...

Yeah sounds about right. Playing since September closed beta and I've only opened two golden legendary cards. Cairne and Thermaplugg. Crafted golden Emperor and got the golden gnome from beta.

There's a big difference between being viable and being overpowered. Patron Warrior is just over that line in my opinion. Blizzard has stated numerous times that they don't want players to be able to win games from an empty board and burst their opponent down 30 health. With Patron Warrior...

No I just think you're dumb.

Every single free agent who has a shred oh intelligence is doing the same thing. 1 year deal now and cash in next year when the cap increases.

Just played another Patron Warrior. Again, I had two minions down and here comes Warsong, Frothing, etc, etc, etc. If they nerf Patron Warrior it has to be by hitting Warsong Commander. She's the reason it works. Patron Warrior is, bar none, the most frustrating deck to play against (and...

For those who haven't read it here's a link to Brian Kibler's thoughts: On Patron Warrior and Nerfs: Everyone Get Out of Here! - BMK Gaming I like Kibler a lot. He has a strong MTG background and he understands the game at a fundamental level. His thoughts are also well reasoned and he...

Shows how much I pay attention to card artwork... And I play with the sound off because I'm usually watching TV or something.

Every single 99 cent pull I've done has gotten me a 3 star Relic. Only reason I do them is because I still have a balance on my iTunes account from an old gift card.

I'm normally against making too many changes to the game (i.e. nerfing things out of hand) but I'm fully on board the "nerf patron warrior" train. I just lost a game where I went from 30 health to dead in a single turn when the Warrior had an empty board and a 1 Charge Death's Bite (which...

And which team can actually offer that? The Cavs and... A D-League team? A European team? I'm sorry Lebron touched you in a no-no spot but you're head is up your ass.

Well if he thought Lebron treated him like an ass, Kobe would make his head explode.

I think Love will return. Towards the end of the season (and especially the first round of the playoffs) he was finally finding his identity on the team and making contributions. When he came back to watch from the sidelines, Cleveland really let him know that they appreciated him and it...

Yeah. I've had my account since closed beta and have spent way too much money to risk getting banned over a bot.

I'm playing casual to level Rogue up. Literally half of my matches are against Freeze Mage. What the flipping fuck is up with that?

Blizzard seemed to indicate that the free pack from winning the first Brawl of a week is a temporary thing. Does that mean weeks or months? Who knows? But I do know that without any sort of reward that Brawls will be dead after the novelty wears off.

That's kind of my point. I'm not opposed to burning a Mythril to ensure I finish an event and collect the most powerful rewards but I'm also not going to go through them willy nilly either. Levithan is easily worth 1 Mythril (even if he's simply a one shot AOE board clear until honed). I've...

Yeah, it wasn't fun burning a Mythril to finish the event but getting Levithan was worth it to me. I'm not going back to master it that's for sure. I have a self-imposed cap of 1 mythril per event. I figure that each event awards 7 to 9 mythril so it's still a net gain.

I limped into the last fight with most abilities gone and everyone at half life or death. I gave it the old college try but just couldn't get the pod to open before dying. I burned a Mythril and easily beat it the next try. Zealot on a fast character like Tidus really trivializes the last...

The current Boss Rush (Squall's Event) is MUCH tougher than Garnet's. I can't compare it to the Tidus Boss Rush since I never attempted it. The biggest problem (for me) is that there are only 4 bosses but each boss requires a completely different strategy to defeat. That means I'm going in...

I'm done with this brawl for the week. The banana mechanic lends itself to an atmosphere of BM which is even worse than normal. Not fun.

My first Brawl was me with a Flamewaker Tempo deck. My opponent tried to go mill rogue. I crushed him with two apprentices and two falmewakers on the board. He fed me a ton of free spells and missiles went everywhere.

It's taken me a few plays through but I figured out the archers. Timing is a big part of it. You need to get around that last corner do the left archer doesn't hit you. The right archer is the real problem though. It's critical to run along the edge with your back to the wall. If you're...

That interview was a train wreck.

Frothing was used in some OTK combos. The problem was that it wasn't reliable enough. What Patron does is open up a second win condition so that if both Frothings end up on the bottom of the deck the Warrior can still win games with a different combo.
