The guy that worked a second job for a while to maintain his Percocet habit pointing out he isn't in nearly as deep as the methodone crowd doesn't look like less of an alien to the rest of us. edit - like this but for Magic cards "Once you get locked into a serious drug collection the...

Discussing the costs of Magic with Heylel is like having a discussion with a masochist about having your scrotum nailed to a chair. Their perspective isn't invalid but the amount of overlap between how you see things and how they see things is going to be pretty low.

Oof, you don't even get to replace the fakes with real ones provided you can buy/borrow some right quick? Maybe between rounds but not during the match itself?

One of the problems I ran into doing lower level content was that zones weren't even vaguely on par with each other. For example I found Sithilus to be absolute trash with tons of running, kill 15 of this now kill 20 of that, and no story. I bailed to Felwood and it was night and day. A quest to...

Sure, that's going to raise suspicion but that's also the dummy move. I think the way to go with counterfeits of old cards is to try to pass them off as in poor condition. Throw them in a tumbler with poker chips (wooden, ideally) to simulate natural wear. There was a particular way that old...

Yep. Fakes don't need to be perfect. They just need to be within the margin for error.

FOOL YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN LORD DREGOTH, YOU SHALL DRINK OF ONLY SAND AND EAT OF ONLY ASH I won the box set for Dark Sun as a door prize at a Magic tournament years ago. It looked like scorching hot death.

I did one at 112 and one at 114. One was fucking around with Galliwix and the other was fending off some humans at Horde foothold. The battling thus far is not very battled. We're at war, damn it! I assume things will escalate later.

The game works really great if you show up after the expansion's last content patch has been released and you get to benefit from all the catch-up mechanics and experience the story as one complete narrative. Just shelve it until the spring of 2020 or so. I do agree that, as far as MMO...

I figure that's exactly what it was like for the bad motherfuckers in the military out in Afghanistan forging new alliances with goat herders. You could be the baddest dude on the planet but you've got to listen to this Afgani's daughter sing a song about llamas because you really need to know...

What's wrong with them now?

@Attog Heylel just got you an extra 200 dollars. That counteroffer is fair and in good faith. I doubt highly he'll turn it down.

He looks good, the art on all his splashes is good, his abilities seem decent and are more straightforward than I was anticipating. He's a little too close to Zoe in that they've both got the cutesy/lolrandom/sparkley thing going pretty strong but overall his rework looks to be of the high...

There's always the speaker on/off button.

I'm one of those derps who values verisimilitude in games. Messing around with the defenses of towers and bonus gold awarded for killing the put an end to lane swaps or nerfing minion gold for junglers if they have the most gold is just so artificial it negatively impacts my enjoyment of the...

In regards to Nunu specifically it looks like his snowball operates like Taliya's thing as I said. You hit with one and it slows the enemy and then more hits slow more until it roots or if you melee them when they have that debuff they are rooted. Then when they are rooted they are vulnerable to...

I always found it frustrating how the live team was perfectly willing to leave characters in terrible condition. There was a stretch where just picking Evelyn was considered trolling up to picking her in a ranked game leading to people eating warnings under the guise of poor communication...

Hey look they got rid of Ice Blast and replaced it with a frost themed version of Taliyah's Threaded Volley. Oh boy. Point and click abilities have no place in zee new older, mein kommandant.

I've complained forever that the game does not have a form of ranked play that exactly mirrors the format for the Hearthstone World Championships. How to pick a proper stable of decks for tournament play and being very good with several decks at once are skills necessary for competitive play and...

A friend of mine that plays and is a super casual was telling me about his experience with the expansion. In his first three games he ran into a MechThun deathrattle (the Reckless Experimenter one) combo kill and had no idea what even happened. His opponent had nothing, no deck, and then won and...

Yes, exactly.

Man, not for me. The first time I quit WoW was over them. They were first added in their modern incarnation during the Burning Crusade and I went from being happy to have a way to farm cash to despising the daily busywork and the expectation that I log in each day and do it. By the time I was...

And every time you activate him you say Grenzo FLIP in an Asian accent.

There's nothing that stops you from using the pet with MM, you just get 10% bonus damage if you don't have one.

As a spectator and spectator only I've had a good time watching Dog and Kripp play with the new cards but for this first week at least it doesn't look to be a healthy meta at all. In too many games all the decisions one player made up during the early and middle parts are entirely negated when...

I can't even listen to the commentary for the big WotC hosted Magic the Gathering events. The coverage is too terrible. I'll take Yipes gibberish over just about anything in esports commentary.

Exactly this. You can sell them on eBay and then ship the physical item with delivery confirmation (automatically included on all shipping methods these days) and it should be fine. You can mail them first class in a box for less than three dollars if you don't to just go with an envelope.

I read a book a while ago called One Second After that is about the effects of an EMP attack against the United States. Communications networks are down, power is down, everyone's electronics are fried, only the older mostly mechanical cars still work, etc. That premise, if you've got no money...

Was it last year or the year before that they changed the top lane tower to make 2v1 lanes stop happening? "We want lane swaps to have an inherent risk and by risk we mean we want the LCS to look like solo queue so we'll make it so punishing to lose the first tower and the top tower so weak that...

I like how happy he is through the whole thing as you're doing dailies and stuff.

Think of all the underground continents there are as well as the flying cities and underwater civilizations left to explore.

@Attog 1997 World Championship Spellground Playmat (Magic the Gathering, MTG, Yugioh) | eBay There are none in completed/sold so the price can be be someone wanking themselves off but it could be a big sack o' dollary dingos. another related link magic world championship playmat | eBay

If someone was interested in streaming as a career they would not be doing themselves any favors by dismissing the people that have been successful at it.

I'm aware. For Standard and Limited it could be Scry X where X equals how many times you mulliganed.

Feeling like you're got a chance whenever you sit down at the table opposite someone is a good thing and Magic the Gathering, for the most part, has that. Draw variance is a large component of that. Sometimes you've just got all the right cards or your opponent has all the wrong cards or make...

I assumed those were short duration temporary animations rather than true undead.

For figs that aren't quite to scale you can put them on a base that actually does represent their size. I keep an assortment of cork tiles/panels/circles I bought at Walmart for that and all kinds of other things. Templates, spell radiuses, temporary monster figs (all these squares are oozes or...

I mean where did you learn all these lifehacks. There's fucking three pages of dragons for sale of all different styles. Your gurl drag you into Hobby Town and you were like, bam, dragons.

This story stuff is fine and all but I'm really more concerned about seeing the class I boosted already have nerfs on the way. I have no frame of reference, I don't know what I'm doing, I have no idea what the game looks like at 120, and I'll never set foot in a mythic raid but I care very much...
