    Why sense heading when you can carry around a fine steel sword.

    Yeah, with minimal haste and all your artifact's golden dragons at 110 you're basically GCD locked, so it definitely doesn't feel slow in terms of combat pacing. In terms of walking around it feels so slooooooooow, especially after playing the DH.

    I mean, it seems like bad infect because they're the same basic deck. A creature based combo deck. They both have similar kill-turns, share some cards from iteration to iteration, and play out very similarly from the other side of the table. They have different sideboard plans available to...

    One of my fondest early memories on Emarr was getting whispered out of nowhere to help some pug Fear Raid drag their corpses. It was a whole bunch of people from random guilds had gotten together and decided they were totally raiding fear... with no idea what they were doing, since it was a...

    Whenever you met a Female Wood Elf Druid you waited to see RP Emotes attached to their heals. If they appeared, then the player would just be annoying; if they did not, the players tended to be conniving assholes. Halfling Druids tended to be pretty chill/confused that someone was actually...

    Managed to snag my FTV at retail, although it was a bit of a squeeze, as the store I normally buy it at had its allocation cut down to one box of 6 FTVs. New templating Umezawa's Jitte is much nicer to read than old templating.

    I mean, like 90% of people who did the epics just followed a guide on allakhazam or their class forum. I bet 95% of the rogue populace that got their ragebringer only actually did half the epic quest, since most of the side-quests that get you the info needed to complete it were optional if you...

    New one doesn't even work for the legacy deck, since it can't grab painter (1/3 too stronk!).

    Emarr server was amusing. Named for the Goddess of Love, filled with a community that completely loathed itself. Should have realized we were a fucked up place when Ebonlore started there.

    I remember making a Human Shadowknight as my first character. And promptly abandoning it because I was lost somewhere pitch black in my starting area and didn't know what 'gamma setting' was.

    I was so psyched when Grafted Exoskeleton came out, since I'd been playing Brion Stoutarm EDH for years. It lasted in the deck for about 2 weeks before I removed it at the playgroup's request. Apparently Infect is even more annoying when its your own stolen and flung guy infecting you out.

    Halfling also retained a 10% exp bonus even after they cut the Exp Penalties from the game. If I remember the #s right, Warriors had a 10% bonus, Rogues had a 5% bonus. The game just didn't tell the player about it the same way they did the Penalties.

    Troll Shaman also had the Snare Necklace if they worshipped Innoruuk, which was great for soloing.

    The Glaive is BOA and can drop for other classes, because people who didn't preorder can't play Demonhunters right now, and they didn't want to lock those folks out of getting the appearance on launch.

    Netrunner

    Oh? Did they update their model? Originally they were just going to do 2 "decks" every 3 months, which was like 22 cards total with the way their decks were structured. I kinda clocked out when that announcement was made, since the rate of new cards was going to be absolutely glacial.

    You've seen the current EQ "art" team's work, right? Re-doing twenty year old hideous graphics would just be a challenge for them to make the graphics even worse.

    Netrunner

    I really wish they'd do an LCG where they release one package every 3-4 months, with 60-80 individual cards, instead of the monthly 20 card packages. Give players some time to breath with new cards.

    I love Netrunner. I've loved it less the last year of terrible design decisions, but the base game is still probably in my top 3 games of all time.

    There's a pre-patch questline that takes you there. You should also camp out there for legion launch, since that's where you start the Legion content, with moving from old dalaran to new.

    I don't agree with the ending of the Broken Shore scenario, where everyone runs away after the 1302940310310 Bosses spawn. You know damn well the PCs would scream PURPLES and charge, not retreat. Ruining muh immersion!

    Concerted Effort lets you go for the hat trick of flying, fear, first strike, double strike, landwalk, protection, trample, and vigilance. It's nice as a back-up Odric for your most important keywords, while also coincidentally making some of your Trait Sticks (Baneslayer, Mirran Crusader et...

    The best part of EDH is watching someone cast Yawgmoth's Will... to play a bunch of random Zombies from their graveyard. Using Broken Shit To Do Durdly Shit is like, the hallmark of EDH. It's a format where Channel was legal with 40 starting life all the way up until Emrakul got printed...

    Ozruk in a nutshell: 1) Hit him during the Reflect to get a DoT on you. You want the DoT because it breaks the stun he puts you in later. 2) He'll stun everyone when he starts to cast Ground Slam, DoT should break the stun quickly. Run behind him, outside of the white/transparent circle...
