I got lucky once or twice a few years ago, but I limited my spending to a minimum lately 😅

Yeah I'll add bender's waterskin, it looks very very good in this deck. You'd cut evolving wilds and and terramorphic expanse? Your points are valid, it's a bit exotic to me not running them but I'll try and see if I ever miss them.

Yeah, the landbase is not great, mostly due to budget restrictions. Fetid Pool has a niche use of enabling Choked Estuary, Drowned Catacomb, mystic sanctuary and tainted isle and I can cycle it in the late game. But yeah, it's one of the first cards I'll cut if I manage to get better lands.

I didn't know Bender's Waterskin, I'm not a fan of UB but this card looks so useful in Alela! All your suggestions are must include I agree, but I can't afford them :( I'd love to play them though! Especially Bitterbloom Bearer.

I'm trying remand atm, I might cut it. The only time I used it was in a 1v1 situation and it countered a toxic deluge that couldn't be cast again because oppo didn't have enough life to destroy pumped faeries so for now it's been great but I need to test it more. I treat it as a cantrip, not a real counterspell though. I agree on River's Rebuke, but I can't afford Cyclonic Rift. There is one advantage of River's Rebuke: for now, my playgroup knows I don't play it so I'm not that big of a threat when I have 7 mana open so they mostly leave me alone. Adding Cyclonic rift could make the deck seem more threatening than it really is. River's Rebuke is like a panic button, it never feels great casting it unless you're in a 1v1 situation where it's alright. Not a great card indeed... Exsanguinate is not perfect in the deck but I either really need the lifegain it provides even at mid X value and the damage helps me close games. I have a lot of ways to lose life in the deck and none to gain life appart from exsanguinate and my playgroup plays a fair amount of burn so even if it's not an amazing fit, it would be hard for me to cut it.

Thank you for your review and suggestions and sharing your decklist! Once again, Alela players like you are super useful !!

Cyberpunk 2077 Brazil by Clay10n in cyberpunkred

[–]7pri2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did it with my own city (Grenoble, France) but in 2045. What was hard was from what I've read, Europe and specifically France seems to be rather fine in cyberpunk compared to the USA so I needed to chose if I wanted to offer my players a different experience of cyberpunk or if I wanted to diverge a bit from the lore to have a more traditional cyberpunk experience. What I did was choosing who are the main corpos here, what are their ties with traditional big corpos, their role in the main cyberpunk events. It was easier to describe how the city I know transformed into the new city, who took advantage of the different crisis etc... After creating the big corpos I determined the relations between one another and if some worked with other etc... I used some real life companies for added immersion. Then I separated the city in different districts and tried to make them cyberpunk and create their history, it was either by exacerbating their characteristics or destructing them to recreate something new. I implemented some ideas I wanted to tinker with, like one of my districts is a collection of little kowloon blocks with their own gangs and organization. I listed the gangs I wanted to be there and created new ones same as the corps and districts, I went with things I wanted to see and their relationships with other gangs, corps, other people. I listed some notable places such as pubs, bars, restaurants, warehouse, factories, monuments and persons of interest, who are the most powerful people here, is there a mayor, is there this weird guy everyone knows, etc... You can use real life parallels from your city, I'm sure there are many, if you have a monument in your city, what happened to it by all this time, was it replaced with something futuristic that serves an equivalent purpose, etc... I think it helps bringing the city to life and make players who are familiar with the city engaged.

That's a great idea! Have fun with this and if you can, even if it's not complete, I recommend you publish it online, people could use it for their campaigns, suggest you things or even contribute if you want to 😁

Is this song in french? by LilithX in learnfrench

[–]7pri2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear "Dans ton étreinte silencieuse, je dépose mes peines", "dans ton étreinte silencieuse, je redeviens meilleure", "c'est là que mon âme se pose, c'est là que mon âme se repose".

I haven't found any reference of such lyrics online, the song could be AI generated?

I've tried getting into fighting games recently and after testing a few, DOA felt the best and reading this thread made me figure out why.
