    Dead By Daylight is...

    Actually a perfect game for us and those like us. Take it for what it is, imperfect and silly but ffs, it is money on both return on time in and return on twitch skills.

    DOTA 2

    All that are/have gone, lend me your experiences. I'm old and have always *kinda* wanted to take a geek vacation. I mean, when I was young (as in before most of even you were alive...) I did GenCon but that was when it was in Racine, WI and yes, that's how old I actually am. Oh, and it was a...

    DOTA 2

    I think the meta has come around so far that comfort picks are best picks often. Obviously synergy is still king and counters are needed but "smart" and "clever" seem to be getting trumped by solid and familiar. Parity is high and what you've practiced most probably is better than a superior...

    We might see these two go at it again in the finals!

    Oh my, this ain't fucking done yet!

    DOTA 2

    I wouldn't ban Sumail's storm, even though it is scary as hell with farm. It plays to his strengths and his weaknesses though and Sumail on storm without farm is just pitiful.

    DOTA 2

    Jesus, this is so back and forth. Team fighting indeed!

    DOTA 2

    Uh oh, S4 off to a strong start on storm might get ugly. EDIT: Welp, or not!

    DOTA 2

    GG boys. I mean, shitty game by Secret but nice hold against the odds for as long as it lasted! Shoulda never put themselves in that position of course.
  10. N

    DOTA 2

    Agreed. They've definitely still got the edge but this is way closer than it should have been. Hell, one big lost push and Secret could be back in this one in a serious way.

    DOTA 2

    Yeah, not sure this one is on EE. The draft was a little baffling and Maybe is just raping faces. Ain't over but it isn't looking good for sure. (Ok, probably over.)

    DOTA 2

    Yeah, it's live CGI. You can see it on the big screens in the arena but it isn't actual holograms or anything!

    DOTA 2

    HaHa! Much lulz.

    DOTA 2

    Oh, this one is done.

    DOTA 2

    Oh, I don't know about them pissing away game one really. I mean, mistakes were made but MVP is pretty goddamned dangerous and if they get the tools they need then they can stomp. Let's see what G3 draft looks like but this isn't over. (EDIT: I don't mind this MVP as much as the casters do but...

    DOTA 2

    Yeah, thinking we'll see a game three and they might shy off faceless for it. I know nerves are real but damn son, those are just not pro-level chronos this game. More harm than good really.
  17. N

    DOTA 2

    Yeah, I think he thought they were winning and he could seal it for late game. Well, late game v MVP is about the half hour mark...

    DOTA 2

    Nah, used to be a live alternate stream. Was actually quite good too! Hell of an opening game we've got here.

    DOTA 2

    Ha! I wondered if they'd censor the ding ding ding motherfucker.

    Wine and How to Impress.

    Sure, sure, it took me like an hour and a half to get a mask on my *second* rogue out of LG from character creation. The first ykesha? Fuck me, I can't sadly remember most of my early companions but those were some fun times even if they did ruin all our lives in some ways. Still, it wasn't...

    Wine and How to Impress.

    Domaine Serene is actually really good shit. It's overpriced up here (like ~$120CDN on my list I think?) but I am a huge fan of Oregon PN in general and definitely love their offerings from 2.1k+. I should be at PinotFest next year if all goes well and largely because we've moved cases of DS...

    DOTA 2

    I don't even want to think about the potential for fuckery given that dota is worth what it is and is played in RUS, SEA, brasil, KOR, so on and so on. Starcraft and then SC2 almost got gutted over betting scandals and in Korea you can leave your wallet on the scanner in the subway and it'll...

    Wine and How to Impress.

    So. I never really mentioned this even back into the Noows days but my work life has wandered some like many of us I imagine. I started in Engineering, then into Software Development (shitty coder), then to Management but the whole time I've paralleled in the restaurant and bar business and the...

    DOTA 2

    I like the summary but don't agree across the board by any means cyr. Group is group and as long as you continue, all is basically well. I don't buy into the everyone is keeping pocket strats meme but there sure is a bit of that going on. I was amused to see Synderen actually play again and...

    Hearthstone

    I think Illusionist is going to break something. Not entirely sure what yet but that's a mechanic to be used super sparingly and putting it on both a cheap and decent body is a bit out there.

    DOTA 2

    I'm no great fan of this iteration of Secret or even how they got there but I did believe in the talent being talented at least. Not seeing it on this stage so far, that's for sure. Outdrafted regularly (and seriously, I've loved Puppy's drafts in the past) and just outplayed across the board...

    Donation Status Enabled

    Shit. First time I've actually logged in on mobile. Nice work! I'll find a donation later on.

    Hearthstone

    Interesting. I don't see IGB as that powerful really when I'm piloting warrior but I guess it has merits. For pirate I probably no longer care about their board by turn four (or have a 4+ damage weapon available if I do) and for dragon or control there are ample answers. It's a good card no...

    Hearthstone

    Zoo was super strong for me early last season but didn't produce much for me later on at all. Warrior-fest is just too brutal and much on it on the back of ghoul really. Haven't really started on this round but the few games I've played seemed like Warrior of whatever flavor is fine but with...

    Dead By Daylight

    Yeah, I don't tune in too often anymore but he is a little amusing for some reason. He's definitely been crushing it cashwise since DbD hit though! I've seen at least a $500 and often in the 750-1k range donation each stream and frequently multiple $100+ ones in addition to the usual 30-50 subs...

    Dead By Daylight

    While I'm sure some of the twitch guys are gaming the system a bit, there definitely seems to be some money in it. Sxyhxy has to be pulling in at least a few hundred per hour in donations, although I'm sure Twitch takes a good cut of that.

    Draegan sold the site to MMORPG.com

    Exactly. New forums look good and there's no real need to post here anymore but might as well lurk a week or so in case of possible drama.

    Hearthstone

    Oh, I don't think there's much probably about it. Priest is in a pretty bad place. Still, I hate playing against them even if I'm well favored. It's like every one of their class cards is designed specifically to annoy the other player.

    Hearthstone

    I caught five (to three even) kinda early on. I rarely even go for five anymore but a combo of face-war, drag-war, mid-sham and zoo made it seem charmed. Then I dropped from three to eight in a few days, with an ~35% win rate. Go figure!

    Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius

    Well, the gravity rod is also the best +Magic item for the slot. Ignore the spell, enjoy the stats!

    Hearthstone

    I did three just for the hell of it and two got a concede round one. Just mulligan for high cost, hope you get lucky and quit if you don't. Everyone seems to be doing about the same so it's actually a great brawl for doing dailies I'd say. I mean, it's a really stupid brawl overall but fine...

    Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius

    Damn, getting beat on by the BGN-S boss a little here! Vaan/Cecil/Kefka plus Las-Fina-Terra-Rydia and the lack of great melee damage is starting to show. I think I could work it but I'll probably stall for some levels or level up a debuffer/stunner/whatever. Fun game although content is...

    King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017)

    Well, I loved Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels so I'll hold out a little hope that Ritchie can pull something out here. He probably can't or won't but what the hell, I too am a sucker for Arthurian shlock.
  39. N

    Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV (2016)

    Yeah, I'll watch this for certain although likely not in the theater. I'll also probably be cheering for the 'bad' guys but that's normal for FF really.

    DOTA 2

    I'm actually more impressed by both Navi and Secret than I expected to be. More so by Navi given how shaky they looked yesterday but hey, both are looking in decent shape going into TI. Alrighty then, draft for game four... Navi is looking just scary if this is a sub 30 minute game. Hell...
