    People have a love/hate relationship with Reyaud. Some people will defend him to death and others hate his guts. However, I will say this about him, I don't think any single person has had a larger impact on Hearthstone's Meta than he has.

    Like I said, the nerf is better than nothing but I've been giving the whole Unleash The Hounds thing a lot of thought when playing. In my opinion, the card is, fundamentally, a broken card. Less than a week after it was buffed from 4 mana to 2 mana, the Meta shifted hard to Hunter dominating...

    I'll take the nerf but I'm also not convinced that 4 mana wasn't the right cost. There was such a knee jerk reaction after the original nerf that nobody really tried to utilize the 4 cost uth properly. But I'll take what I can get at this point. No single card has dictated the meta the way...

    Again, it's been awhile but I remember a critical component of killing them without death tricks is to use sentinels to soak the big attacks. It takes awhile to get to the 1 stagger kill capability but one there it's smooth sailing. I got very zen killing those things because the fight was...

    It's been years since I've touched the game but what you describe means you're underleveled for them still. Look on Gamefaqs for the strategy to kill them but once you're strong enough, you'll be able to kill them in a single stagger. Once that happens, they go much faster. It's also...

    I don't mind rogue. Miracle rogue is one of the best anti-control decks out there. But miracle rogue struggles against rush so it has much more defined match ups.

    13's platinum wasn't bad but it was very time consuming. Just don't sell anything and you'll be fine. The worst part is killing the big turtles for hours at a time for the money drops. I think I clocked about 90 hours on 13 to platinum it.

    13-3 is decent but nothing great or spectacular. For most of the game it's simply Lightning against the world. She's not a particularly well designed character and she's not particularly likable so having the entire game revolve around her is a questionable decision. Despite only one...

    Season 2: Rise of the Miracle Rogue Just trying to do my daily, I ran into 4 of them today. I don't mind Miracle Rogue as much as Huntard decks because Miracle Rogues have some pretty defined counters. And even though their deck is built on cycling cards really fast, they can get hit by bad...

    I reached Chapter 4 of FFX-2 and I forgot how much the Commsphere sequence sucks. It really doesn't add much to the game but it's simply hours of tedious annoyance to make sure you keep your story rating at the appropriate percentage.

    Call of Duty : Advanced Warfare - Starring Kevin Spacey!!

    I liked the single player campaign for Ghosts but the MP sucks. I think my favorite MP was Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops 2. I LOVED knifing in MW2. Never got the whole quick scoping thing though and really thought that ruined the game when someone could quick scope snipe you from the other...

    Yeah, it's a stupid Covenant that appeals to social rejects who simply want to gank. One common tactic in Doors is to sit on top of the ledge and snipe the person pulled into your world as soon as they start to load.

    I created two dummy accounts and went through the tutorials. Once I did that I loaded up an account on my main PC, a laptop and my iPad. It took me about 5 games to get my Fireside back because my iPad kept losing track of the other two accounts but it eventually worked. And just concede the...

    There are legitimate reasons to take the full timer on some plays (especially with lots of cards in hand and some not so obvious combo potentials) and then there are douches who take the full turn in hopes that the opponent will concede out of frustration.

    On the console version, PVP was non-existent (except for a couple confined areas that are "flagged" as PVP zones) for the first few weeks. People were exploring, figuring out builds and so on. Plus it doesn't help that Cracked Red Orbs aren't as easy to come by in DS2 as they were in DS1. The...

    Get a corded XBox 360 Controller. If you're running Microsoft, all the drivers are there and it's simply plug and play. Wireless Controllers requires an adapter which is why a corded controller is, usually, preferred for PC Gaming.

    Well according to Ben Brode, UTH is on a "watch list" but there are no plans to adjust the card right now... So yeah, this game blows right now.

    Well in fairness, nobody really tried using UTH at 4 mana back then too much. There was a knee jerk reaction that the card now sucked after being changed from it's original OP state of (give beasts charge and +1 attack permanently). As soon as it dropped to 2 mana, a few streamers showed off...

    I'm sorry you won your game... Concede is there for a reason. It's to prevent a losing player from being "held hostage" by the winner while they complete their elaborate 10 card combo to deal 68 points of damage when all they needed to do was run their 1/1 Argent Squire into the opponent's...

    No, as consumer's we should not, blindly, champion both systems as you seem to imply.

    I've been playing around with this Miracle Rogue deck: (Legendary) Burstdown Miracle Rogue : hearthstone The main change I've made is to swap out the Mana Addicts for Questing Adventurers. Their attack doesn't ramp as fast but they're a lot more durable with their added health from...

    It's possible to 100% it in one play but it's VERY hard to do. A single screw up and you won't make it. You really weren't meant to complete 100% the first time through. You were "supposed" to get in the 90% range and play it again on a NG+ and choose the other faction to see the full story...

    I'm in the last area of FFX now. The very first time I played through, I did everything pretty legitimate. I didn't avoid fights but I really didn't spend much time grinding (except for the one Seymour battle). I didn't do any of the side quests either. So when I reached the final boss, it...

    That's the thing with Titanfall. It ONLY appealed to FPS fans being multiplayer only. Assuming I had an XBone, I wouldn't have bought the game. While I enjoy the occasional FPS game (like COD or Halo), I play them for the solo campaigns and, maybe, dabble in the MP portion a bit. There's a...
