Dies to Removal

I think I'm past the point in my life where I have enough predictable free time to make MMOs rewarding instead of frustrating and lonely.

They're here to talk about their RB decks

Daredevil's tone reminds me so much of Frank Miller's Daredevil

Still playing jank (I'm calling it The Little Engine That Killed), still working a bunch, still fly.

Just got into Evolve, if anyone here plays. Message me your steam info!

Nuwen

so conflicted about whether to snag the episode leaks or not. The scummune screens them every Sunday and I love everyone's fresh reactions... but HRRRRRRGHN

Take cool-ish showers and use oil-based ("castile") soap if your skin is dry. "Healthy" is a pretty relative term; .e.g. if "healthy" behavior makes you a social pariah it's probably not going to result in healthy consequences for you as an individual. Love, an unwashed...

Hey, I'm just as awkward as the next nerd. Having light non-topical conversations is the hardest thing I do ever day.

But here goes

How's your life man? You doing everything you want to be doing? :3

Ugh my r/b testing still didn't provide anything worth a writeup. I've iterated through that same list with about ~15 different mainboard changes, played a couple dozen sets against assorted netdecks. Additionally realized that I'm not even sure where the acceptable competitive bar is, besides UP TH...

Going a different direction - does anyone have any experience with arranging a play testing session for something they designed, either virtual or in person? Been working on a new card game for a couple years now and have a few mechanics / ideas I want to test before going further. Z-man Games like...

Nuwen, will I be seeing you in vegas again this year?

Neg, going Camp Neon instead.

Nuwen, I've whitelisted the IP you sent me

Nuwen

Is the Col. still our admin? I have a friend from work who wants to post up a cool artifact brew, but he's IP banned. Dropping a quick note here while he installs Tor. <_<

I should probably be playing +4 of some other fetch color to thin the swamps in my deck.

http://www.channelfireball.com/articles/owens-pick-of-the-week-mono-black-aggro/ Paging nowen The whole Sidisi -> Bloodsoaked champion interaction strikes me as very, very slow - it's certainly slower than chucking Bloodsoaked Champion at their face with Tymaret, and that's already been proven too ...

Nuwen

Those things are all correct and my idea was quite awful.

Nuwen

It's just a very small and specific example of the way you erode big policies as an individual contributor. Easier reg for peon players who aren't purchasing byes -> less pressure/demand for sleep-in registration, because the base package is a less shitty experience. VIP prices decrease (at glacial ...

Nuwen

Not trying to be a bummer, just trying to engage you because you're smart and think analytically. Everyone else here doesn't give a shit, so if you feel convicted about the problem it's up to you to figure out a way to fix it.

Nuwen

Tournament organization requires that a certain threshold of people be branded, corralled, and ready at a certain time. So how do you figure out which people are over/under that threshold? You see who's willing to pay for it. The UX is shitty but the underlying motivation (running on schedule) is re...

SPEAKING OF THAT R/B DECK Underwhelming. Performed best against R/W & G/W aggro decks because it could explosively steal 2 games in a set, but seriously underperformed against Azban midrange. Even in sets where I intentionally made minor* mistakes as the Azban deck, the R/B deck had a lot of tro...

The fuck is a bujcaj. I googled it and nothing above the fold. Better phrasing for my wordy post: there's no incentive to make SCG want to run unsanctioned tournaments when they could run sanctioned ones instead. Figure out how to change that, other than with mouthwords, and I'll pitch in your camp....

Nuwen

Just all of the weird language you have to use to offer something to your opponent. It's so pedantic and causes people to get DQ'd for no reason. Earned byes, splitting politics, paid perks...all of these things arent the game I want to play. SCG has wrapped this senseless bureaucracy around Magic....

Not that you shit in the living room or are a dog.

I'm Monday-drunk, you know what I mean.

Nuwen

What a bucket of cunts. You don't kick a dog to reinforce that it shouldn't shit in the living room.

Start rattling off anime people. I need something to watch.

What're the last two or three titles you really enjoyed? What're you looking for?

Tap mutavault to activate itself, sacrifice to Falkenrath Aristocrat, morbid Brimstone volley. *-*

Nuwen

Yeah, there was a game where I dashed Warbringer + Kolaghan Forerunners + Kolaghan Skirmisher with another 2/2 already on board. 11 (4 trample) damage from 4 sources on turn 5. And all of those cards are common/uncommon. R/B was really under-represented at my store, which I didn't get. We were divid...

I opened an incredible sealed pool, but didn't go 4-0 because scrub. Dropped one match while seated at table 1. Mull'd to 5 G1 and got stuck on 2 land / 1 color (whatever, happens) and then proceeded to punt G2 by trying to unnecessarily accelerate a 2 --> 1 turn clock with Butcher's Glee into 2 car...

Tymaret isn't the crux, but he's certainly an important piece of the puzzle. He gives reach to blocked d00ds, can be overextended, fits warrior tribal and buffs battle brawler.

Cut the Abzan Whip deck from the gauntlet and replace with Abzan Midrange/Control, it's the most popular deck in the format with some key differences from that list

Add GW Devotion

The other stuff looks okay

Decline hero's blade. The second Tymaret is a dead draw because he can't sacrifice himself, so 3-4x is bad. Can't afford dead cards to create the slim chance of drawing thing + winmore_thing.

Satyr Nyx Smith, Rabblemaster, and Mardu Strike Leader are all rotating in on my tests.

Nuwen

Still trying to jam Tymaret like a baddie. This is certainly a pile of Cards That Do Stuff. Goldfishing @ work to see if it's worth the playtest time.
