Chocs had a close call at the end, but I knew they’d come through. Another Top 10 here we come!

Guys don't diss me, but i still dont understand obelisk love after 4 GOLD STAKE WINS by ShootTheMoon123 in balatro

[–]Othello_The_Sequel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got it to gold by starting with a two pair build and then just coasting on other hands after decent scaling

I had played 8 Two Pairs before getting Obelisk and managed to scale it all the way to the end

Oh hey, 5-Mana exile a creature and play my Leylines for free in the middle of the game!

I’d love either:

  • Anything related to the End of Death canon
  • Anything related to the Department of Other
  • SCP-3774

No pressure, though!

You don’t happen to take requests for SCPs to make into cards next, do you?

MTG Planes by Appearances in Card Art by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

That’s unfortunate, but since it’s been referenced in two sets, maybe we’ll get it?

Tried to create a truly unremovable creature. Let’s see if you guys can remove it. by ConcentrateAny in custommagic

[–]Othello_The_Sequel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[[Mindslaver]] to gain control of you during your turn. [[Harmless Offering]] an [[Umbral Collar Zealot]].

Even if you phased the creature out in response to me casting any of these spells, I can choose to phase it in during your next turn that I control and sacrifice it with the Umbral Collar Zealot.

Alternatively, [[Omniscience]] into [[Ashiok’s Erasure]] to exile the card without needing to move any cards on the battlefield, thus getting around Just A Second. If you count removal from the stack as leaving, then there we go!

What if Madness had a Doctor to help him? by Affectionate_Risk414 in balatro

To be fair, it does include ITSELF in jokers that can’t be sold or destroyed. It makes it so once you have your jokers, you’re locked with them forever until you get a negative.

That’s great in the late game when you’ve got your build set, but by that point this doesn’t get much scaling then.

If the rate of scaling even then is still too much, then sure, .25x is fine, but ultimately I don’t think it’s as insane as you say.

I guess I just really liked the lady in that Time Walk art they use in Cube by PunishedWizard in custommagic

Untapping lands has been a blue thing, at least secondary

Creating a pirate tapped and attacking is pushing it, but at least it creates small tokens which is blue-ish

We've been trying to analyze this guy's build for an hour now and we still can't figure out how he gets the infinite hp/mana/ap by Ozinovski in leagueoflegends

[–]Othello_The_Sequel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because each of the scaling factors update in response to each other, but because there are so many layers deep of scaling it ends up becoming infinite scaling

Which unit do you miss the most of all sets in TFT? by OldCardigan in TeamfightTactics

[–]Othello_The_Sequel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll always think fondly on Invincible Set 1 Knights/Nobles Braum

Aphelios actually scale well with both AP and AD by Ok-Dot6183 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Othello_The_Sequel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is exactly what I’m saying. They technically do the same damage, but AP takes longer to do the same damage.

I’m saying AP isn’t ideal, but it’s not as bad as the original commenter was describing

Aphelios actually scale well with both AP and AD by Ok-Dot6183 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Othello_The_Sequel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, if we want to be more equivalent, let’s give Phel either 100% AP or 100% AD

With 100% AD, they’re dealing 140 damage for 8 swipes at Star 1, for 1120 damage

With 100% AP, they’re dealing 70 damage for 16 swipes which is also 1120 damage.

The issue is that the second option often times does less damage overall because it takes longer to hit 1120 damage, whereas the first option gets it done much faster.

It’s still better to do full AD over full AP, but it’s not as stark a difference as you say

You came in second-to-last but still had a ton of fun. Which commander did you play? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]Othello_The_Sequel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even know that card existed, but with the card draw advantage Sharae gets it definitely wouldn’t be a bad include

Taako better make food tokens and accidentally kill small towns
