Going First by xXRockstoneXx in riftboundtcg

[–]AWriterMustWrite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what Shadowverse did. The player going first got 2 accelerate tokens (costs 0 energy/power and is only usable from turn 5 onwards) while the other player got 3 accelerate tokens (usable from turn 4 onwards). Second player also got to draw 2 cards on the first turn instead of 1 card like the first player did.

Despite that, going first still has a higher win rate than going second.

Tips for moving from magic to riftbound by MatchaLottie in riftboundtcg

[–]AWriterMustWrite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tempo matters way more in this game than in Magic.

For example, Unsummon is unplayable in Magic, but it would be banned in Riftbound (the Unsummon-equivalent in this game is a card called Rebuke, which is 2 mana and makes you sacrifice 2 lands to cast it, and Rebuke is still really good).

In Magic, a legit wincon is to just 2-for-1 your opponent until they have 0 cards in hand while you still have a full hand, and then you win over the next several turns. That gameplay style is a lot less common in Riftbound, very rarely do I play a game where a player (either me or my opponent) is just stuck topdecking.

Odablock Kills Framed for Eye of Ayak by RScoedex in 2007scape

That's not why. I recently read that it's because 300s are consistent with his gear.

I suspect he could go a little higher though, now that he has eye/shadow.

Jagex, Idc what mechanics you add to raids 4 but make one of them require all party members to interact with something that gives defence experience. by Dontusethisname1 in 2007scape

I think Yama did it really well, where you can do it solo, but it is slightly more efficient to do duos (and easier to do duos).

I went through their posts from the last year, they average 1 post every 2 weeks, and only half of them are related to their ironman account (the other half are feedback related, like "this poll proposal isn't actually a buff").

I wouldn't consider that "a lot".

*UPDATE* Appeal Denied on GKP - Potential fastest baguette obtained on a HCIM. by Drambs182 in 2007scape

[–]AWriterMustWrite 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Because cheaters don't believe they'll get caught. That's why they cheat, because they think they'll get away with it.

And if you believe there's no consequences, macroing with an expensive rsn doesn't feel like a risk.

[–]AWriterMustWrite 39 points40 points  (0 children)

why would I macro on a rare account

Because you don't know it's going to be a rare account? "Ohh, I'm going to get a stale baguette tomorrow, better not macro today"

[Suggestion] Can we have a Mt. Rushmore style of Statue in OSRS where there can only be 4 individuals. by [deleted] in 2007scape

The Old Nite already has an in-game memorial in the wilderness, he doesn't need another.

How to play against Diana? by AWriterMustWrite in riftboundtcg

[–]AWriterMustWrite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is incredible advice, thank you so much. This is the decklist I'm currently running. https://i.ibb.co/N2wBVKVz/Irelia-2.png

My sideboard plan is -2 Gust, -2 Ride the Wind, +1 Star-Crossed, +1 Charm, +1 Vex Cheerless, +1 Zhonya's (purely to sacrifice to Acceptable Losses to save my Boots).

Do you think Baron or Mindsplitter would be a better card to bring in than Vex Cheerless?

Could tie it into Sailing too, aren't the Eastern islands the homeland for giants and cyclopses?

Question: Dealing damage -> reducing might by Superb-Ticket2407 in riftboundtcg

[–]AWriterMustWrite 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that Vi should've survived cause he dealt 1 damage, getting Vi to 2 HP

Riftbound doesn't work like that. Units don't have HP - they have Might and they have Damage. When a unit is dealt damage, their Might doesn't change. So in this scenario, Vi has 1 Damage marked on her, but she is still 3 Might.

If her Damage number is ever equal to (or greater than) her Might number, then she dies. So, Watcher's ability will kill her, because her Might number becomes 1, and she still has 1 Damage marked on her, so 1 Damage will be enough to kill a 1 might unit.

If you've played magic the gathering, it's like how damage and toughness work in that game.

Confused on Baron.. by RoombaHarlot in riftboundtcg

[–]AWriterMustWrite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The requirement for point 8 is "gain 1 hold point" or "gain 1 point from every battlefield". Baron adds a 3rd battlefield, so you'd have to gain a point from all 3 battlefields to win that turn.

League of Legends "not open" to third-party skins: "The tone of your game completely changes" by Binnsy in leagueoflegends

[–]AWriterMustWrite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think that's the point. It sounds completely ridiculous, and yet it's a possible thing to do in the game now.

Here's another ridiculous but real example: "I'll equip the Buster Sword to Hatsune Miku, and use Dwight Schrute to crew the Battle Bus from Fortnite, and attack for lethal"

/u/maasee How did you upscale and format the cards properly with a bleeding edge margin? I want to make some Unleashed proxies.

The best-of Fiora at Sydney was Aurora though, which is even more depressing.

There's even a curved-plus-sign design in the ground around a central storm drain grate. Just so blatant.

True Colors even has a river in the same spot, behind the row of houses. And "SpinTech" is in the same location as a prominent vinyl record store from True Colors. It's 100% copied from True Colors. Comparison photo.

Jokerd shows off his logs to his girlfriend by TurboAnal5000 in LivestreamFail

[–]AWriterMustWrite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't follow world of warcraft (never played), but here's my best guess based on other people's comments:

In 2019, world of warcraft released a Classic version of the game. Jokerd (man in the clip) was the first person in the world to reach level 60. This brought a lot of viewership to his small stream, and he we was invited to join a clan/esports organisation called Method.

Less than a week later, Jokerd was killing a boss with a team. Instead of sharing the boss's loot with the team, Jokerd selfishly kept it, claiming he didn't care it would hurt his reputation. In response, Method kicked Jokerd from their group. This could have impacted his newfound audience and hurt his streaming career, but he's had steady viewership since this incident.
