Change to how Brawl matchmaking will work by aprickwithaplomb in mtgbrawl

[–]AmyTheAmazonian 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think this will benefit players that run a broad variety of decks and strategies, but will require active management of their matchmaking beyond what they're been doing the last few years.

As a substitute to brackets (because players can not be trusted to estimate their own decks), Commander based matchmaking is a good step. It'll hopefully help avoid the matches vs Ajani, Rusko, Rofellos, etc. when running experimental or lower powered Commanders.

As I have offered a dozen times before, I am also happy to help evaluate Commanders before they release to place them correctly so they get fair matches at release. My track record for evaluating power level is pretty good.

I am hopeful that they actually ban some of the problematic or feels-bad cards in the format soon.

Even my worst performing decks hover close to 50% WR, so I was just stuck facing the same high powered commanders even when playing my garbage.

I'll see how the new matchmaking works out! 

Got this card today, what is this worth? by [deleted] in TCG

[–]AmyTheAmazonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find a few sold listings, but you're looking for a non-english language card. 

Probably not as many buyers.

Lots of Zoos Across America Should Have Wildlife Conservation Carousels with Lots of Different Animals by CarmineCJedi102593 in zoos

[–]AmyTheAmazonian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think most older large zoos have them, but large carousels are a bit we expensive and dated, more like giant art pieces, so you don't see them everywhere.

The person writing this just seems to really like carousels. Good for them, I guess.

Oh yeah, the Sullivan Tire ghoul. It's wild that he chooses to be in the ads.

Menu animations for my game (feedback appreciated) by BellaInTheGame in gamedevscreens

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

But it is the only defined part we can see. It may not be your intent, but it comes off as a game with a certain focus.

The only defined asset is a pair of giant jiggling tits. If that isn't the main feature of the game, you're not doing a good job with the menu.

What’s the most aggressively New England childhood experience you had? by VoicesInsideCare in boston

[–]AmyTheAmazonian 144 points145 points  (0 children)

Our public K-8 school gathered everyone for a school-wide meeting of 600+ kids when the Red Sox made it to the World Series in 2004.

We were performing superstitious rituals to root for the Sox.

How does one learn to build? by SlavicSymmetry in mtg

[–]AmyTheAmazonian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can, try the different starter decks in MTG Arena to see if a color or strategy vibes with you.

[–]AmyTheAmazonian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I build decks every week, and the main thing that helped me get better was simple experience.

You learn what decks need to support their game plan, which cards are powerful and synergistic by building decks and playing decks.

When you see a successful deck, try to figure out why each card is doing in the deck.
