    Anarchy's Children might not have any extra missions in it but Alien Hunters and Shen's Last Gift will. The mediocrity of avenger defense is my only real complaint with the game

    XCOM 2

    How was EU any different? If you didn't have Slingshot the only special missions were the base assault, downed overseer,and temple ship. EW added a hell of a lot more mission variety with Progeny, EXALT,base defense, and site recon, but EU was pretty bare bones.

    Hearthstone

    55/45 is a bad matchup. 70/30 is a counter, that's a massively lopsided win ratio. When the win ratio gets as low as 90/10 or worse, like it does with control warrior vs freeze mage, that's called a hard counter, although it's not a terribly important distinction in Hearthstone since no other...

    Hearthstone

    Loatheb dropping out is such a huge bonus for freeze mage that it probably balances out losing mad scientist.

    I've gotten the avenger defense in the 2nd/3rd month before, think it's random if you evade the UFO or not.

    Is Netflix Considering A Revival Of 'Young Justice?'

    Yeah while the good guys are stopping the doomsday weapons the Reach set up, Savage absconds with War World, takes to Apokolips, and shakes hands with Darkseid. So that would be interesting too, but considering your disagreement with them downpowering a Darkseid level character for the...

    Is Netflix Considering A Revival Of 'Young Justice?'

    No, I wouldn't be happy to see that at all. What I want is a season bridging the gap between season 1 and 2 with the stuff that was previously only shown in that awful Young Justice video game. Poor Tula.

    Off the top of my head he's good in every kind of warlock except zoo, every kind of mage except tempo, and miracle rogue. I was ahead of the curve for once in cutting him from control warrior, he has no place in a deck where you're trying to slowly extract maximum value from every single card...

    XCOM 2

    Never had such a hard choice for a guerrilla op so early in a new game. Second set of guerrilla ops, only have 2 regions contacted. The choice I really want is a mission with a scientist reward and the objective is a hackable object, which means a chance to get either a +20 hacking bonus on my...

    I've been preaching about the evils of Thaurissan since BWL first came out. He's absurd.

    Hearthstone

    Except when you say this, you're completely ignoring the fact that so many of the problem cards that sped the game up so much are rotating out. Without mad scientist thinning decks as well as destroying the mana curve by putting secrets directly into play, haunted creeper, nerubian egg, and...

    Man that's a really good theory. I like it a lot.

    Hearthstone

    I honestly think losing Deathlord is a much bigger kick in the teeth to control priest than Velen's, and maybe bigger than Lightbomb too. Or at least on par with Lightbomb.

    Handlock isn't even a viable deck atm. If it weren't for healbot the meta would literally be 100% aggro.

    XCOM 2

    Or if they're not directly in the way, just leave them. Turrets don't have to be killed when you have a 'kill all the enemy forces' objective. Or stun/control them with haywire protocol, they have pretty low hack scores. And awful accuracy.

    Oh get fucked you assholes, I had almost 1k omegas saved up waiting for the omega update. *edit* I mean either way I suppose it's still a 1k orb jump start on getting back to the cap, but still.

    Arrow

    Well I assume that's why he went into detail about how he could picture the office, he was able to use his powers remotely because of how familiar he was with the place. Still a bit much, but w/e. Episode was kinda mediocre but not terrible.

    Ok so I get bored with freeze mage, switch to anyfin, lose 4 in a row. Decide to revive my older more cycle heavy anyfin deck. Lose to a priest who I'm pretty sure thoughtstole double anyfin, but either way he didn't use one when it was obvious lethal so I cast my first to clear the board and...

    Hearthstone

    Standard Freeze Mage has me intrigued. I'm thinking I'll replace mad scientists with torches and a second loot hoarder in place of healbot. And then never play freeze mage because control warrior will almost certainly be back in a big way.

    Hearthstone

    If I was running 2 taskmasters I'd want two acolytes on top of both armorsmiths...which now that I read more closely was part of your suggested change. I dunno I feel like if you're going to run Varian you might as well be as greedy as possible. The deck needs a second brawl, and maybe geddon as...

    Hearthstone

    Well, when I say slow down I mean nerubian egg, haunted creeper, and piloted shredder are all rotating out, so when you use mass removal, you're actually going to clear the board.

    Hearthstone

    Only battlecry in the deck is Justicar, and that's just because of how amazing Justicar is in control warrior. Hell that's why I cut two taskmasters and subbed inner rage in. Depending on how the meta shakes out I'd also consider ditching armorsmiths for fierce monkeys, or something else more...

    I've lost to warriors running double gorehowl in THIS meta, should definitely be playable post-rotation. Need something to make up for losing death's bite, king's defender damn sure isn't gonna cut it as much as I'd love to use my golden playset. But yes, there should probably be either a...

    See changing Roc's from giant eagles to giant who the fuck knows what doesn't really bug me because it doesn't actually affect the story. Genewen can still take them to the Wilderun and then rescue them from Safehold. Oh and I bet Safehold is gonna be a bomb shelter. With stained glass...

    Actually I'm more interested if they're making more than just a few tiny changes. Sorta like Xenonauts did with the original XCom.

    Hearthstone

    Here's my first draft at a Varian control warrior post-rotation. Greedy as hell but I think the format will slow down enough that you can afford to be greedy. Obviously we'll have to see what the new set brings, but I'm anxious to try out Obsidian Destroyer in a format where boom and geddon...

    Master of Orion

    Seems like they're just taking moo2 and cramming a couple modern design choices into it, and it doesn't look like an improvement. I don't fucking want space lanes, and I don't think I want the new victory conditions either.

    Whether or not you feel it was awesome is irrelevant. The definition of awesome I gave is the effect they were going for which is why it was written like that in the script.
