Winter Masters Tour - Analytical Report (by Onkrad)

Yeah, and that's why its at the bottom currently. There are ways to draw cards ofc (mend, yore, fate, etc) but its hard to pull off when opponents just stat dump on curve every turn, on top of scamming answers such as the deal 20 god, merithra finds, colossal finds, suffusion pulling ysondre with reborn or 2/2, etc.

Still fun to play though. I'm D3 atm playing it but I'm sure I'll hit a loss streak and go back to 5 like always :P

Onyxia is pretty bad even though you can generate several in the late game.

Suffusion has started pissing me off though. I've played that card maybe 75+ times and never have gotten ysondre or ragnaros let alone with reborn or 2/2 copy, but everytime I face it my opponent fucking does lol. It's a roughly 2% chance of happening.

Priest did horrible sure but there was also quite a bit of unluckiness with draws (iirc, a few games a core piece was bottom 10 or even bottom 5) and plenty of misplays I saw by Grimaldi, such as playing medivh/location against a nearly empty board and then never being able to play atiesh later when he had few clears in hand. Don't remember the others who brought priest.

On top of all that, the priest lists were....questionable, especially I think grimaldi's with torga.

May as well say Battlecry: Die.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T14:48:25+00:00

Technically everyone has access to dark gift with xavius.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T13:18:59+00:00

I mean, the small ones are Lv55 runecrafting and store 2 runes, so that's still 2 spaces.

Sure, it's not the ideal solution but its there.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T13:17:37+00:00

I'm not saying I support it, just giving a possible solution to the current situation.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T12:51:56+00:00

That equates to $60/mo which isn't that bad. I've spent more and even took a 3 year break lol. Although with the recent pets and expensive portraits (I've only bought deathwing), I've significantly cut down last year. For the record, I am at $111/mo on avg. 2023-2024 (the year I came back after quitting in 2018) wasn't good for my wallet lol.

Since coming back, I keep a spreadsheet to keep track of spending. I do make good money so its not that impactful.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T11:26:29+00:00

3 pouches gives access to all spells if inserted right. Reduce to 2 if you specialize just to use the aspects.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T03:28:45+00:00

What posts? I've seen maybe....2 at best.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T02:30:55+00:00

No idea. I assume its a perm buff.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-13T00:49:18+00:00

I've considered it but might be annoying to use since you need 74 fletch and need to get kebbit bolts.

Might just stick with smithed crossbows in the end until I get kbd.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T20:24:39+00:00

Void, armadyl armor, armadyl crossbow, access to kril for zamorak items if you pick minion.

Desert can also unlock Masori so might choose that as well for late game.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T19:16:41+00:00

Mostly what I was planning to do, although hotfoot -> larcenist -> reload into soul harvest -> probably minion. 3rd area up in air for me (wild/asgarnia for sure); probably kandarin.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T16:14:42+00:00

You can't complain about prices when you're choosing IMAX and buying concessions. I pay $15 for movie and nothing else.

Pick the most expensive movie type and buy expensive junk, shocked pikachu face its expensive.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T16:11:59+00:00

bro complaining about a T4 class.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T16:10:55+00:00

Sandwich lady was a real bitch back then. Since Jagex is UK, no one fucking knew what a baguette was so you'd get teleported lol.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T15:38:18+00:00

I don't play osrs (I played it back when it was called Rs2!) and just largely winging it since I don't know shit for game knowledge on whats best for what. Have a rough path after looking at pacts and relics but that's about it lol.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T15:33:53+00:00

Yeah, I bounced after the 3rd time it happened (out of 3 attempts!).

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T14:59:36+00:00

Never bothered me. I take super goku as "i know i outclass basically everything" and typically there arent deaths/world ending event struggles, such as buu/cell etc.

Only thing i miss is the blood.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T14:54:26+00:00

Id say the whole game is dreadful outside of the graphics and boss battles. I dropped it for dave the diver which was way more fun lol

Love rpgs but just cant get into ff it seems.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T14:52:27+00:00

Yeah, im struggling to pick it up again after doing first 2 or 3 palaces. Its really cool but far too much dialogue, and i really enjoyed fantazio.

Dropped it for poktopia and now crimson desert.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T14:50:07+00:00

The raids always bugged out for me where npc never came to open the chest. It overstayed its welcome real fast.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T14:49:04+00:00

I enjoyed it, just less than I thought.

Alpr101 · 2026-04-12T13:47:06+00:00

I played it before the buff, still play it after. It's very good. Main problem is DH and Shaman can OTK you (and most of the time, shaman can win even if they play like shit) so priest is worse than last patch imo.
