    Yeah I don't get it, last time they ran this brawl I was absolutely crushing mages with druid.

    Well according to Chysamere I had the moon rune pronunciation wrong so we're about even. I thought the last syllable was pronounced 'nay', which is how they pronounce Masamune in Samurai 7. I can't remember the last time I watched it in Japanese, so I assume the English voice actors just...

    So maybe I built the deck wrong, or maybe I just wasn't getting the busted openers, but it took me 5-6 matches to finally win a game with druid in the brawl. wtf

    Depression

    So I'm pretty sure I started a manic cycle yesterday. Dunno if it was triggered by the adderall or just a coincidence, but it's the first manic cycle I've been on in months. Maybe the adderall is doing something too. I ended up staying up past 3 am when I'm normally in bed between 12 and 1. Took...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    You're still a terrible mod, but you seemed like an ok guy the few times you were in IRC, so I'm sorry this shit is happening to you. Don't click the spoiler. Really sucks though. Friend of mine went through a profoundly awkward divorce followed by a fairly awkward split with her rebound...

    What, what's the second definition on that link you just posted? So you're having an angry argument with someone and he punches you in the face. Sounds like you just got sucker punched. I've had loud angry in your face shouting matches with friends and roommates before and neither one of us...

    I mean, I could still get back in shape and go train just as a hobby and exercise, but I think it would be kinda frustrating not being able to compete, and lasik ain't cheap. If the money for lasik suddenly dropped into my lap I might give it a shot despite the fact that I'm already 33.

    Commune, every variation of the word Immune including Premune apparently. Also Triune, Tribune, Lacune, and maybe Cohune if 'close front rounded vowel' means a Y sound. Those are just more examples of words ending une that are pronounced yoon and not oon. Off the top of my head Munificence is...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Convince her to move then divorce her when you get to a nearby state with more lenient custody laws. Probably not practical though.

    Uh, that's a sucker punch. If you're having an argument with someone, even a very heated argument, and you just suddenly punch him in the face? That's a sucker punch and anyone who thinks otherwise is retarded. *edit* Granted it would be pretty dumb to stand back and challenge him to...

    Hearthstone

    Think I prefer the non-random aspect of houndmaster if I had to choose between them. Hybrid hunter doesn't have room for Wrangler, so you'd have to go back to full on Midrange hunter, and probably replace the sludge belchers, which seems pretty iffy but worth testing.

    Hearthstone

    You're getting ahead of yourself. I would argue that he's not much better than houndmaster, and he only recently started to creep back into hunter lists. Also, you're sometimes forced to drop houndmaster without his battlecry as a tempo play, but at least you're still getting 4 power out of a 4...

    Blackwing Corruptor is amazing and has been a consistent meta presence ever since whoever it was came up with Malylock, even if Malylock has fallen off quite a bit in the last few weeks. Patron is actually pretty shitty without Warsong, so I'm not sure how to rate it, but obviously it's a big...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    The PS1 era of rereleases was mostly a bunch of half-assed money grabs, but going forward, most of the rereleases are worth it for the cleaned up dialogue alone, the little tidbits of extra gameplay they toss in just being a bonus. I love a good Woolseyism as much as the next Square enthusiast...

    Would be awesome if they actually had the balls to lampoon themselves and call the adventure pack 'Troll Dungeon'. Announce it as 'Obligatory Troll Dungeon' for an April Fools joke, then the next day announce that you're actually calling it 'Troll Dungeon'. I should work for Blizzard.

    Monica you crazy. Long have I carried? now I bear the Masamune? Henceforth? They didn't do away with his speech affectation, they just cleaned it up and made it less garbled. The new dialogue is much better.

    Hearthstone

    The animal companion comment was obviously a joke, but I guess you're too obtuse to see it. I agree with you on gang up and lava shock though, they're objectively powerful cards that just don't have a place in the current meta. Black Knight is also an objectively powerful card that has no...

    8 mana for a 7/7 is slow, and if he gets silenced you lose pretty much all his value. I'm not confident enough to say he won't be played, but I won't be surprised if he doesn't make the cut in any decks. Maybe freeze mage would run him, since that's the only mage deck that is slow enough to...

    Hearthstone

    I'm not sure I agree. Unless you get a really broken start, you win most of your matches against control with a big frothing turn. If you can't charge your frothings, the deck loses a ton of oomph. Also, not being able to attack with your inner raged patron when you combo off is a big deal too...

    Yeah, it plays the new Toriyama cutscene, then it goes through the game engine scene. Dialogue is so much better in the DS version too, dunno why you have a problem with Fiendlord. The DS speech is much better than Also, how do y'all pronounce Masamune? I found my first Masamune at like 9 or 10...

    I would absolutely have gotten into MMA about 8 years ago when I first started watching UFC if my eyesight wasn't so goddamn bad. Pro fights don't allow any kind of contacts, so I'd need some A+ lasik for my eyesight. Glasses can still correct me to 20/20 but I'm worse than 20/800 uncorrected...

    Eh, I mean I could have been within a couple cards and then spent 10-20 games refining it until I got the list just the way I liked it, or I could jump to a netdeck and then make changes from there if I felt like it. Hell, there are 3 different aggro pally lists on power ranks, I picked the only...

    I want to ask 'Why is a man approaching his second divorce handing out relationship advice' in the Marriage thread but I can't because of some shitty mod who infracts anyone who dares sully his safe space.

    I'm definitely a Johnny/Spike. I want to win, but I also want to have fun doing it. I also like trying to come up with metagame foils, but that's practically impossible when the meta is so heavily distorted by an OP deck. If I was a pure Spike, I'd be playing Patron 24/7. I know archetypes well...

    You know what else was really good? The cutscenes they added for Chrono Trigger's PS1 release. The PS1 port was fucking terrible, constant short little load times, not optimized to run off a disc at all, but they kept those cut scenes for the DS release and they're just awesome. The Masamune...

    They will never rotate the sets you can play on the ladder. If they ever actually implement tournaments, perhaps they could do something like Magic Type 2 where you can only use the newest few sets, but not the ladder. But even then, unless the meta was like 90% demonlock, I wouldn't play...

    So apparently Luso's Game Hunter class is just a copy of Ramza's Squire, straight down to being able to learn Ultima, except Luso also gets Poach when he's set to his base class.

    I'm sure you know more than the pros at Tempostorm and Liquidhearth. The difference between the matchups for the two decks is that midrange pally is worse against patron and face hunter, gets crushed by oil rogue, and gets shit on by aggro pally. Aggro is worse against ramp, but nobody plays...
