    I have been wanting to try a mill deck but I am average at best for deck building. If you get a chance, I would be curious to see what your build is.

    What We Do in the Shadows

    Regretfully watching the series before the movie kind of takes away a lot of the charm in the movie. It is better to watch the movie and then the series but the movie still has a few parts that are humorous.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    This part of the preview made me do a double take. We are now initiating mounted combat against a star destroyer?? I suppose you have to use whatever is available but this wreaks of toy promotion rather than just common sense in script writing. That one scene easily sold me on not going to see...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    Its the largest reason I finally just got tired of Hearthstone. I do not mind a little bit of random. Its one of the things that can translate well from table top to computer. I do not like a random like "Spend 6 cast a random legendary creature". Those kind of randoms are just weak and...

    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    That explains that then. My first impressions of the game are outstanding. I was impressed with the layout and the ease of play. They already had a nice tutorial that even players not familiar with these kinds of games could easily understand. There is a mix of a few games that have all come...

    I also no longer have access. I assume the access was a limited amount of time or the server is down? Is everyone else also having this issue?

    I am enjoying this game. As long as this game does not create 100 different kinds of counterspells(Hate that mechanic), I am good.

    I also registered as I am kind of over Magic Arena. The game looks nice. I am glad to read that others on this board are enjoying it.

    Gods Unchained

    So I gave it a try. The game itself is HearthStone with a few worthy changes. I enjoyed what they are attempting to do with the system. Initially like Hearthstone, you can get 1gem/mana per turn that builds up as you go along. The difference is that once you get too turn 5 the incremental...

    What We Do in the Shadows

    I finally got around to watching this on Hulu. I loved it. As many have already stated, there was a treasure trove of masterpiece comedy in the season. The show is so wonderfully different from everything else. Looking forward to the second season when it arrives...

    Gods Unchained

    So that would be a no then. I am surprised a little bit that nobody has even tried this game. It looks well enough made. I have no doubt that it has a strong Pay-2-Win component, but with a trade system, a lot of that gets knocked down. I guess maybe I can be the guinea pig and see how it is.

    Gods Unchained

    Given the publicity this game got with the whole Hearthstone debacle. I was wondering if anybody had tried the game itself. It appears to pretty much be a Hearthstone clone with the ability to trade. I watched a few videos on the game play and it looks fairly well made. As always, balance is a...

    Well apparently South Carolina came to play and UGA did not. If they pull it off it goes down as the upset of the week.

    Where is the line drawn for time based achievements?

    I saw that. The question is, what was the point? If it is not official, and not individual, why really do it? I can break the record in a car but that is not an achievement.

    Where is the line drawn for time based achievements?

    Eliud Kipchoge makes history as he shatters two-hour marathon barrier This is still an awesome run. The problem I have is the celebration of the time. This person used methods that provided a clear advantage to his ability to break the record. Technology has always played a part in advancing...

    Yeah, I am enjoying this one more than core. Black/Green is certainly one of the stronger combos with adventure and creature control.

    College Football 2019 - 2020 Season

    I cannot stand Florida. That said, if Florida does manage to beat LSU, the Georgia/Florida game would be one of the best in a long time. We shall see.

    Joker (2019)

    My wife wanted to go see this movie. I was kind of on the fence. I am glad she insisted. This was a well done movie that showed how chaos can descend into madness. Joaquin Phoenix easily deserves an Oscar but the Oscars are not about performance. There is no reason to watch the movie a second...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I kind of wish they would have just put all the eggs into the Picard Basket. Yes, the crew is old but it just looks so much better than this show.

    Peaky Blinders

    That was an interesting season. I got used to a season completing a story arc where the grand villain(of Sorts) is bested by the gang. This ended one ended with no such affair and apparently somebody really went against the Peaky Blinders. It was entertaining as always.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Spending $930.00 on a gauntlet is sweet. Then you see the part where it is not wearable. Why did they make it not wearable? Half the fun is putting it on while it lights up.

    For all the talk over the Field of Dead lands, I do not seem to find many people playing the deck. What Fod deck is running at Tier 1?

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I am actually considering it. I never bought any of the movies and having the entire collection neatly wrapped into a single piece would be nice. The only thing holding me back is the knowledge that the new disney streaming service would have every movie and I pre-signed up for the service for 3...

    I actually think they would make good money on a super rare set. The problem is that the sets/cards always seem to go to the people who do not collect but rather just resale them at a premium. Using some sort of random lottery that only allows for one entry with some sort of confirmation that...

    This card is stupid broke in a Sealed/Draft format. The math does not add up if this was a regular game.

    The Irishman (2018)

    Scorsese directing Pacino, DeNiro, and Pesci in a mob based movie. Yeah I am going to watch this. This movie would have to be a 1 on Rotten Tomatoes for me to even wonder if this was worth not watching. These guys could be in an Audi commercial and I would still consider it entertaining. Now...

    So the event is up...kind of? It appears you get to try any deck but it does not win you anything and you get 12 games to play. Am I understanding that right? The event actually starts later. Why put a 12 game limit to it?

    MTG Arena: State of the Game – September 2019 You deserve one of each card if you can pull 12 wins with only 1 loss. The attempt is free so certainly worth trying. I like how they really are taking forever for a complete friends UI. We get the list next month. I do not think I will go for the...

    What does quality for a gem do? I notice that currency for it exists but seems to be pretty rare. I also found a spectre gem already at 8%. Is that worth leveling over using currency?

    Path of Exile

    Having played this game for a bit now, my largest complaint by far is the lack of a viable auction house. The game is great and a lot of fun. However, trading in this game is a pain in the ass and very time consuming. Why the programmers have chosen not to just outright copy Blizzard's system...
