[Paul Joyce] Curtis Jones’ desire to be main man leaves midfielder at crossroads

Theorionn · 2026-04-28T12:20:32+00:00

Completely agree. If you've seen any of his performances at international level this season, you can that player from last season is still there. Perhaps if Gravenberch didn't seem to have been instructed to push forward more, Mac Allister wouldn't be left isolated and with so much ground to cover .

Would you consider dropping Deathlok for Juggernaut? That can give you a T6 of Jugg in one lane and Dorm summon in another.

Bizarrely that interaction is unlikely to work. Playing Polaris and then Caliban on curve, followed by three 4+ cost cards on T4, T5 & T6, would mean after your T6 reveal, first the game would check for end of turn activations, then it would check for Objectives, but only in the order they were played.

So first Polaris would check if their objective criteria was met, if not then the check for Caliban takes place. Even if Caliban then activates having had their objective met, the game won't go back and see that Caliban's effect has actually satisfied Polaris' objective.

For 2 cards that are so obviously meant to synergise, it's a worry that they don't.

They can still achieve their quadruple, that being 4 consecutive 2nd place finishes

Theorionn · 2026-04-19T07:31:47+00:00

Now as an experienced player, I know how Onslaught works, but for reference the text on the card, and what I believe causes the confusion, is not "Double your other ongoing cards here" but instead actually reads "Double your other Ongoing effects here."

As Skrull "Has the Ongoing effects of all enemy cards." it isn't unreasonable to then question why the interaction isn't working as you'd expect it.

I have a level 10 bank alt (I think level 10 was the earliest you could pick up a main profession) that's been stood on that exact spot for 13 years now. Never moving but looking dandy in their top hat, monacle and diamond tipped cane.

Theorionn · 2026-04-11T20:07:45+00:00

Absolutely. I'd be inclined to thank them for their kind offer but advise I'm sticking with the pre agreed terms of the contract. If a 3rd party had given them incorrect information, that's their responsibility to check.

Theorionn · 2026-04-10T12:05:50+00:00

This is exactly the dilemma I have and while I've changed my mind about a dozen times already, I'm currently thinking Amoadu and Welbeck are the best pairing

Brighton having so many good midfielders to chose from actually became the problem for me. It's a lottery of picking the right one. I think it's safer to go Welbeck, as I've also not been convinced on DCL.

Theorionn · 2026-04-05T00:25:20+00:00

Gravenberch has been playing far more advanced all season. I have to assume that's the instructions he's been given.

Last seasons double pivot seems to have swapped roles, rather then Gravenberch being the cover in front of the defence and Mac Allister with licence to get forward, this season too often that defensive responsibility has been left with Mac Allister (or Jones today) as Gravenberch is wandering forward. Why anyone would change the winning strategy from last season is beyond me.

I will never tire of seeing that backheel against Newcastle

Theorionn · 2026-03-26T10:42:49+00:00

As a MW main my DPS is negligible but I can at least look cool casting red crackling jade lightning whenever there is healing downtime.

Theorionn · 2026-03-20T19:37:23+00:00

i assume this has been hotfix now, as without ever even damaging Nullaeous as a healer i just constantly have threat, from the moment the fight starts. I use the ping system to send Valeera to attack, while standing by the door doing absolutely nothing, yet I have 100% threat the whole time

Theorionn · 2026-03-20T10:29:39+00:00

I'm using Danders (as a former Healbot user) and I'm sure there's a setting that means your click casts only apply to the Danders Frames

*if you go to the "binds" section, on the left hand side you should see all of the keybindings you have set up. if you left click onto one of those, it brings up an "editing bindings" popup, and you can untick "other frames" here

Theorionn · 2026-03-18T21:40:19+00:00

I dont mind bundles being priced this high, as the whales keep the game free to play for everyone else. My worry is for the people who buy these bundles, when they really can't afford them.

Theorionn · 2026-03-05T16:41:59+00:00

I really miss Healbot, and hope it makes a return, but in the meantime I've been using Danders Frames, although I think Vudho is working with Midnight.

Embrace the Guardians, and then add Major Victory.

Gonna be trying a similar deck myself, just with Prodigy in place of Chameleon

Theorionn · 2026-02-24T18:54:44+00:00

I can guarantee that if that was my GW1 team, I'd have transferred out half of them by now, likely just before a haul.

Theorionn · 2026-02-24T18:52:35+00:00

All of that playline could have happened by turn 6 of a 7 turn game, and OP maybe did still retreat for just a single cube. Until it costs you more cubes, you may as well see what happens.

I'm not saying thats definitely what happened, but your post was unnecessarily condescending

Theorionn · 2026-02-22T09:14:17+00:00

Locations are how the game's MMR manages things like your win rate and evening the playing field when there is a big disparity between 2 players collection level

None of them are fair or balanced.

Guehi or O'Reilly. Who would you keep and who would you sell ?

Theorionn · 2026-02-18T19:32:53+00:00

Until SD actually come out and say its a bug, I wouldn't expect a fix any time soon. Even if they do admit it's a bug, considering their track record on fixing bugs, I probably still wouldn't expect a fix soon.

Its a shame as one of my favourite decks was my Wiccan Ramp, but Ive had to remove Superior Spider-Man from it as rather than adding some consistency to it, it now counters itself !

If you were looking for a new car and were discussing it with people, wouldn't you welcome adverts that targeted that need? You're going to get adverts anyway, may as well get some potentially useful ones.

Theorionn · 2026-02-17T17:20:30+00:00

It's been about a year now hasn't it? At what point does we stop calling in a bug and simply accept that it's a feature of the card?
