    Because so many people play the Battlefield campaigns or even remember that they have a campaign.

    Weird anti-THOT was extremely critical of this.

    It's definitely something you need to learn in IT. You can't even get away from them in telecoms. SIP route patterns/digit analysis/manipulations are all done using regular expressions in all modern Avaya, Skype and Cisco platforms.

    Artifact - The DOTA Card Game

    Any THOTs playing this? This game looks like an abortion clinic. I do have to hand it to them for going against every tenant of modern game design and just making a gigantic clusterfuck.

    Remember, it only applies in best-of-one. Regular best 2 out of 3 matches draw a single hand and use just standard mulligans.

    I'd be on wifi basically all the time. Mint still seems cheaper, just worse coverage and a few less features.

    Fuck my life. I can't decide. Halp plz. I am a giant cheapskate. I could get this Pixel 3 on Project Fi... or a OnePlus 6T on Mint, or be super cheap and get on Mint, which honestly looks like a pretty good phone for a non-flagship. Any Smartphone would be an upgrade from my current daily...

    No, not close. Exactly. If you're playing best of one there's really not much reason to play land counts other than 22/26 unless you have a deck that can operate on 1-land openers on the regular.

    MTG: Arena

    If you are playing best-of-one matches don't play less than 22 lands. The shuffler draws you 2 hands, and gives you one with the better land distribution, which means it aims to give you 2 lands in a 22 land deck or 3 lands in a 26 land deck.

    Well, I purposefully posted the ones I thought you guys would appreciate most to get this thread going off to a good start, and less of the andro tomboys, girls with a slight case of manjaw, and Fedor-level traps. But yeah, I do.

    I want to counter all this anti-THOT propaganda. Post your favorite THOTs, including social media and streaming profiles. I do think a point of order is needed, and that full-on porn camgirls should be excluded from THOT status and only lewd Twitch/Twitter/Instagram/Patreon/GoFundMe sluts...

    Also, if the next set is anything like Gatecrash, there's going to be some bonkers Gruul cards so any of the solid green game ending monsters like Carnage Tyrant that also slot into something Gruul is probably a decent investment.

    The best Izzet decks don't even have counters. Jeskai Control is still aids though, it's got so much more raw power than the rest of the format. Some flavor of Mono Green is probably pretty good in the meta. I love how it shifts in Arena a lot more organically than in other venues where you...

    If they're deactivating thousands of ports, they could be decommissioning tons of switches and completely re-engineering the wired network for more throughput and then putting the wifi on switches with dedicated switches with their own VLANs and trunks and blah blah blah. Who the fuck knows...

    Izzet Drakes is fucking hilarious. Make sure to play 22 lands though if you're going to play best-of-1.

    Dragon Age lore is structure the exact same way. Literally everything the game tells you up front as the Official Story is a lie once you dig into the lore objects. Anyway, yeah, shooting shit in this game is super fun, but they really need to give more tokens or something so you can focus the...

    MTG: Arena

    The funny thing is, its just going to hurt them in the end, because people are going to spend less money on this. As the free to play is otherwise fairly generous if you game it right, people will just play the game that way if the value prop isn't there to pay to play. I'll probably drop 20...

    I'm pretty sure they could just keep the vault, up the rewards a tiny bit, and then give vault progress for 5th copies at a 1/3rd or 1/4th rate, regardless of what source the 5th copies came from.

    They should get rid of draft and stick with sealed for MTGO, the draft bot thing is stupid.

    In best-of-1 play, the algorithm is actually designed to draw you 2 different hands and give you the hand with the better land mix.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I am now officially the proud(?) owner of the almost-brand-new Ford Focus I bought my mom the year before she died. Beats the shit out of my 2000 Saturn that leaks every possible fluid out of every possible hole. Sold it to the junkyard for 200 dollars. Focus has leather seats too.
