    After Boom, Sylvanus is one of the best choices. She fits into a lot of decks. Hold off on class specific legendaries until you round out your collection.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I snuck in one last Crota's End run. Bridge can still be cheesed but, for us, it would have been faster to do it the right way after a lot of trial and error to learn just where certain people need to spawn to not trigger things. There's also an exploit to get into the Deathsinger's Room and...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I'm hoping to knock out a regular CE today on my Titan. Finally hit 31. I need to start funneling Shards over to my Warlock. I'm a bit scared of the quality of PUGs being the last day of a reset

    Spent my 600 gold. I got a Gold Dunemaul Ogre and I was due for a Legendary. Pulled Troggzor whom I crafted on the first day thinking he would be played more than he is. I still think he's underrated and he'll start showing up in decks eventually. Especially if Dr. Boom gets nerfed.

    I know GvG just came out but I wonder when we'll see the next Adventure Mode / Expansion? I'm missing cards from GvG and Classic but nothing super critical and I have enough dust to craft a Legendary or some other things with about 600 gold banked already.

    Hearthstone

    I hate the current Hunter Aggro meta but I always play out a Hunter match because, one way or the other, it's going to be a fast game. With Priests, unless I know my deck is viable against them, I concede instantly. 30 minute, fatigue, matches are not fun for me. Priest is just my natural...

    I was watching during the first Sneeds to KT X2 match. My wife was giving me really funny looks because I was laughing so hard. I have a feeling he's going to be appearing in a lot more decks coming up. But at 8 mana, there are better ranked cards out there. He's just a "fun" but...

    In Fatigue Mage, you use Deathlords to thin the opponents deck. You're mass freezing and killing their minions anyway so the Deathlord serves two purposes. One it takes a lot of damage to get through and second, it thins the opponent's deck bringing them to fatigue that much quicker. As...

    Today I also played 2 Fatigue Mages around rank 9. I, honestly, have no idea why. The deck is VERY difficult to play correctly where a single mistake can cost you the game. It's also a terrible ladder deck since it's incredibly slow. Best play of the second game was when he played the...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Destiny is a good game but it's not a great game. I do like that I can play in short bursts unlike a traditional MMO where time is everything. Bungie made a bad of design decisions and as was said, I think they're suffering from hubris due to the lack of competition.

    Deathrattle Priest is back in the Meta... I'm guessing it was streamed or something last night because 3 of my last 5 games have all been against the same version. The Meta, in general, has just swung hard against aggro. I'm seeing MC Tech. Tons of AOE. Zombie Chow in every deck.

    Only if RNGesus loves you. A Nightfall doesn't guarantee coins. You might get a Legendary or a different Exotic (which, in your case, would actually be worse than coins). I'd still do the Nightfall if you can swing it though. It's an easy one and it has a chance at a good piece of gear.

    Good week from Xur for me. I bought the Titan Helmet and the Warlock Helmet. I also bought a backup IceBreaker so I don't have to keep switching my first one around. My Warlock can now hit 32. I just need Shards to upgrade my other pieces of Crota gear to do so. For the most part I...

    Dark Souls

    Ornstein and Smough are, by far, the hardest bosses in the game. I've only beaten them once solo and it involved a lot of strafing around the room and hitting them with Sorcery. I killed Ornstein first since Smough is much slower and his attacks are easier to avoid at range. You need to keep...

    Since we're on the subject... Earlier today I was looking to knock out VOG Hard for the week on my Warlock for more chances at Jelly Horn (no luck...). There were several LFM advertisements along the following "LFM for VOG Hard. Must be level 30 with Jelly Horn. No scrubs." Yeah...

    Is there any better feeling than the one where you're playing a Hunter, take firm control of the board and the emote "Well fought. I concede." pops up? I won't say it's better than sex. But it's close.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    People may be retarded but it's just like MMOs. With random groups, people just want the path of least resistance. They want to "stack" the deck as much as possible so the run goes as smooth and as fast as possible. Is it right? Yes and no are both correct answers. Just depends on your...

    My sentiment might be coming from the fact that I'm running on 2 hours of sleep right now. So with that being said: Really? Who the fuck cares if people crop their pics to remove names and/or rank?

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I'm normally pretty anti-social but this is actually one game where I prefer to do group content with a group. I just wish there was matchmaking for the Weekly and Nightfall. I can give them some slack on the raid since I wouldn't want to be matched with 4 28's and a 29 for Heroic VOG.

    Just maintenance. Because Blizzard ties all of their games together, the fact that they had to patch Heroes of the Storm meant for the transition to closed beta meant taking down all of Battlenet.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Yeah. Catching up really isn't all that hard if you don't mind grinding. You'll be at a disadvantage compared to older players but nothing that can't be overcome.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    That's what I was wondering. I looted the chest earlier this week but was able to loot it again for materials 10 minutes ago. I figured it was because they changed the loot table there. So I thought that Deathsinger might have given out loot if she had been killed earlier since they added a...

    Confirmed. First chest is giving out rewards after the patch. I just did it. I wonder if Deathsinger gives out rewards too since she was also changed.

    It was on the NA server so I'm not sure if it was him, but I played a Strifecro once. He was playing Druid at the time so I'm thinking it was. He wasn't streaming at the time and he, soundly, beat me.

    One of the things I was thinking that Blizzard should have built into the game was a "test region." Instead of launching GvG when they did, there should have been 2 "regions." One with GvG cards enabled and one without. Everything would carry over from one region to the other so if you bought...

    For the most part, at least we're able to rationally discuss issues over here. Unlike, say, the official Blizzard forums where every other thread can be boiled down to "I lost to Card X. Please nerf Card X." Yeah some of us get salty over here at some of our losses or the meta or whatever...

    Morrow is right. Using, premium, removal on an Undertaker is a bad trade but it has to be done or you risk the thing spiraling out of control. You give up a good removal card to get rid of the Undertaker and you also give up tempo to do so. It's turn 1, opponent undertaker. Turn 2 I spend...

    Dr. Boom will get nerfed but I disagree completely on it. We just didn't have any viable 7 cost neutral cards before him so, of course, people are going to run the first good one that is printed. But Blizzard has to know that after they nerf Boom, people aren't going to start packing War...

    If you're ever going to spend real money on the game, Naxx is the best bang for your buck. There are just so many staple cards in Naxx that it is essential.

    The one thing making Millhouse, somewhat, decent is piloted shredder. He's one of the best results from it. He's also not bad against the old zoo which only ran a couple of soulfires. But play him against any other matchup and you're playing Russian roulette.

    I wouldn't say Gruul is the worst but he's still in the "unplayable" category. Too expensive to do nothing to affect the board state the turn he is dropped. He's a prime BGH target or he'll eat other hard removal. If you're behind, he doesn't do anything to help you get ahead. If you're...

    Anway, despite my complaining, I really like Mech Mage right now. I'm glad to see that Mage, finally, has a couple of viable decks again (though Secret Mages annoy the fuck out of everyone). But Mech Mage is just a solid tempo deck. If you get momentum going, it's really hard to stop. And I...

    God I love when I can get Antonidas to work. I was playing a Handlock and had Antonidas under stealth from 1 mana Master of Disguise. I had 5 Fireballs in hand and I used another 3 in the game. That's when he decides to concede. Overall though, the meta just sucks. Literally half of my...

    No real surprises. Pit Chest only has materials now and the Deathsinger drops actual loot (basically everything the pit chest could drop). Lanterns no longer launch people. Bridge part has to be done legit now. Crota will stand if someone quits.
