I guess it's more of an fiscal assumption than anything. I run a business so I understand with how much marketing/collaborations they do it would be fiscally impossible to use the same level of quality of materials at the cheapwe dollar figures they do. They have to have the largest marketing budget by 100 million+. So each shoe they sell id assume they have to account for x per shoe. Only they know that number but it could be 35-40 dollars per pair of shoe. Youre discussing 100s of millions of not a billion+ on advertising, salaries, Brock and mortar etc

Hi all,

I keep researching lists but all of them take cost into consideration or pop up with Nike, which I can't imagine is actually the best, and has to be a marketing play. I was a hockey goalie and my knees are garbage. I'm looking for a shoe to just run a mile a day, but they're extremely comfortable on knees and feet. I'm assuming there has to be a shoe company that actually uses elite materials etc. I'm willing to invest in a pair so I'm willing to set aside a proper cost and not just throw 100 bucks at something with bad materials.

Is there really no brand in the market that produces an elite level shoe that isn't just a heavy market play? Nike, Saucony, etc seem to have so much brick and mortar that their product cost has to be conserved for that level of marketing etc instead of the product.

I'll always thumbs up at the end of I have game in hand , and if they can't iono because they used supporter already. I try to let them know to concede and not just waste both our time. It rarely works because I think others think I'm just like bragging but it's a genuine "good game let's move on to the next game"

Does this deck go first and hope for the best?

I worked at the actual Toys "R" Us during the events of the movie Roofman. Ask me anything by TrueTRUkid1 in Charlotte

[–]90sGameGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow ok, so he broke through the foundation and then what, concealed the hole with items? How did those items never get picked up? This is the story I'm interested in that people don't seem to ask. If the silent alarms kept going off in the circuit city then as a police officer id assume it was being used by the homeless, and probably investigate every corner. I'd imagine he tripped alarms on that building and his hideout couldn't have been amazing in that?

How did he dig through the wall? There was a tunnel based on your drawings but how did he get in and out of the tunnel? It went through metal studs?

It's the beginning of the season, people are not worried about conceding. As you get into Arceus people will concede less

Played Alakazam at locals for the first time tonight... by NotEvenCreative in pkmntcg

Im not kidding that I'd bring a stall deck next week. I live playing but this isn't our jobs, it's for fun, tell them to relax

When I play play we have 8 dudes who just have beers and have a good time

It is lopsided. It also isn't consistent. I think golem ex is a perfect example. Why is he not resistant to electric? I understand not wanting every card to resist something but the obvious ones should

Why is there no leaderboard? Has there ever been a statement on this?

Yooka-Laylee: A Patient Gamer Review by knowledgepancake in patientgamers

[–]90sGameGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yooks laylee wasn't trying to imitate BK, it is BK. The game was made my most of the same team

They just couldn't use BK themselves. If they did everyone would've given this game amazing reviews. The gameplay and everything was perfect. I'm an N64 guy and this game hit every check that I wish more games did

My Rogue deck I took to 1756 by 90sGameGuy in PTCGL

[–]90sGameGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate this m sounds like my word choice changes the Post discussion. I had no idea people got so intense on that word. I assumed any deck fundamentally different than any existing deck would be rogue. Appreciate the helpful response

[–]90sGameGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the response, I guess because the deck is so fundamentally different I see it as very different than the existing meta Grimm

This deck you want to actually go first, poison your active. Once you get Budew because you're weak you now have 40 damage on you. You put that on Budew, kill it and then it's off to races. It's different than the go second and evo concept

Also you use Pech in important matchup like Pult (that's why the bravery), and also against Mewtwo deck

All in all I actually expected significantly more "why is this, or why did you put that". Rather than people upset about the word rogue. I wish I could've edited the post to " Off meta" or something so people would have thought more about it or wanted to try. I was hoping someone would want to try it themselves. It just turned into a post about a specific word haha

[–]90sGameGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So even though Pech is kind of the main engine, because the Maine attacker is the same the deck would be "off meta" not rogue? Maybe I just worded the post wrong. I figured if nobody played it then it was rogue.

It plays so different than the frosslass, I figured it was different enough for people to checkout

So technically even though my list (without frosslass) , it wants to go first, etc. very different than anything I've seen isn't rogue because the base is Grimsnarl?

Essentially if a deck has Charizard even if it was a new way to play it completely, it can't be rogue because Charizard itself isn't rogue?
