    Yeah I'm sorry but as it stands now she's clearly being set up to be the Arrowverse Oracle. Things may develop different in future episodes, but as it stands now, she's Oracle. As for that teaser for next week, she's definitely standing unless they did some absolutely amazing camera angle...

    Do you mind? I'm trying to blog about campaign achievements here.

    DC's Legends of Tomorrow

    Eh, it wasn't that bad, and it was just a pilot. I expect things to pick up rapidly in the next few episodes. The most fucked up thing was Professor Stein kidnapping Jax. I mean that is 100% literally what he did, he kidnapped him.

    Hearthstone

    I really passionately dislike Secretkeeper, but you can't not run it because every now and then it just completely blows out the game, which is ridiculous for a 1 drop.

    At best we agreed it was one of the stronger possibilities.

    Hearthstone

    Well it's still viable, just any version of hunter you might play has a better option in another class. Subpar is the right word for it.

    StarCraft 2

    HotS and LotV 100%. Brutal Salvation was surprisingly easy, although I suppose the Stargate Karax trick is responsible for that. I got Purity of Purpose by building a banshee/viking deathball instead of trying to wall with fortresses and siege tanks. All that's left is a handful of WoL brutals +...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Eh, he was kinda one dimensional and boring. Hey I'm the strong silent type who is such a badass that I can kill a Jachyra with nothing more than my martial prowess even though it's something Allanon could barely manage with his druid powers.

    The Flash

    You do sorta have to wonder if him being voiced by a black guy has any significance...like if he's ever unmasked and it's a Vader moment it would be pretty weird.

    How the fuck was Jurassic World sexist? I want to punch Joss Whedon in the face.

    Savage is going to be rather busy being the bad guy in Legends of Tomorrow.

    Arrow

    I don't remember Anarky being such a badass last time, this time he busts out a 3 section staff of all things and fights off both Thea and Ollie at once?

    I believe Solomon said it will a simple config change to turn the Beagle maneuver back on.

    XCOM 2

    Yeah except the tactic is still viable, just not so unfairly effective when you combine it with the bonus you get for overwatching out of concealment + the enemy pod scattering for cover and not getting to shoot at you. It's too much with the way pod activations work, it would be different if it...

    Next time I'll be sure Jaina is wearing a hijab and escorted by her brother Derek.

    I really don't see them killing Speedy when they already wrote Roy off the show.

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Elfstones is by far my favorite Shannara book and one of my favorite books period. The best part of the book to me was actually Stee Jans and the Legion Free Corps, especially the bit near the end where the tattered remnants of the Free Corps hold the top of the Elfitch alone as the rest of the...

    Star Wars Rebels

    Eh, I thought the Dark Side was clouding everything. They never really trusted the chancellor all that much even if they were blindsided by him being Sith.

    Arrow

    You know I totally forgot the show left off with Felicity getting shot? I guess she's going to be Oracle now? and yeah, my guess is also Felicity's mother, Diggle in a very distant second followed by Oliver's son.

    XCOM 2

    I suspect they'll make the 'itchy trigger tentacle' second wave option from EU the default in XCom 2. That will make it not worth the risk to use one of your quality soldiers as bait just to take out a single pod, and if you really want to waste a squad slot bringing a red shirt on every...

    Hearthstone

    I think I played the funniest damn matchup of my life yesterday, fatigue mage vs anyfin combo. I polymorphed murk-eye and one of his warleaders, my coldlights screwed up his first anyfin and I milled his second anyfin. That dude had to be salty as fuck.

    XCOM 2

    lol. I always thought Johnnylump was sort of a weird pseudonym, guess it's not so weird. In other news, Beagle already got overwatch traps nerfed and the game isn't even out yet. Granted it was pretty ridiculous and is a big part of why he was cruising so easily through legend. Basically you...

    He's not a very good writer. He's a fantastic world builder though.

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    Many versions of the suicide squad have Waller putting an explosive inside their head to enforce obedience, but I don't know of any that were outright mind control.

    Star Wars Rebels

    Except that, morally speaking, the Jedi are grey. The Jedi vs the Dark Side is almost more a question of Order vs Chaos than it is of Good vs Evil.

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Genesis is almost a decade old, screw spoilers. The apocalypse reshaping the continent/world is exactly why the fact that it used to be Earth means absolutely nothing to the setting.

    Hearthstone

    Well, Blackwing Lair and League of Explorers are unquestionably the next two best places to invest cash after Naxx, I'd certainly make sure I had all the adventure packs before I thought of buying packs.

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    So I finally watched it. I still don't like the whore outfit, but I don't mind her take on Harley. I'd be pretty disappointed if Harley never evolved beyond people copying Arleen Sorkin. The worst looking thing about this movie by far is still platinum grilled tattooed Joker. *edit* And...

    Now I know what looks wrong. It's like they took Wonder Girl straight from Young Justice with red hair/green eyes.

    The four lands just plain don't fit into the geography of North America, Pacific Northwest or anywhere else, especially if Morrowindl is supposed to be the Hawaiian Islands.

    Deadpool (2016)

    Well there wasn't actually all that much nudity in his movies, it was the fairly brutal 80s/90s style graphic violence and killing that got them all rated r. If you watch DVDs or catch them on a movie channel you'll see why they're rated R.

    Heh, I remember having a Pirates mini-tournament at a lan party a couple years after it came out, 4 people. There were victory points or some kind of score in that game and we were playing first person to 50 or something like that. Anyway I was behind the whole time, they were laughing at me...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    I didn't read Genesis so I never knew that the setting was supposed to be Earth. I mean yeah it was obviously post-post-apocalyptic from a technologically advanced society, that was established in the very first book, but the geography of the world was changed so much that it being the distant...

    Star Wars Rebels

    Maybe Yoda warns Kanan to stay away from Luke, and Ahsoka just plain doesn't trust him or want anything to with him because of his father. Although I'll be curious to know if any of them detect Leia's force sensitivity or if they just kinda gloss over that. Then again Vader wasn't able to detect...

    Uh...Eddie was obviously his DIRECT ANCESTOR or him killing himself wouldn't have done anything to Eobard. Unless they're going with the nature abhors a vacuum theory of time travel wherein a new version of Earth 1 Eobard is just descended from a different Thawne now. Still makes more sense for...
