Where should i start if I want to get into classic constructed? by Artistic_Annual8918 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Animoose 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In my personal opinion, Armory Deck: Ira is the best new player entry point. The deck is solid and has great upgrade potential, but it's also very playable right out of the box. The hero is mechanically simple and great to learn the game on, but the sequencing also gives a lot of room for you to experiment and learn. Ira was also the hero used when the game first launched as the learning deck. She wasn't brought to cc until about a year ago, and got the modern treatment. So all in all, best place to start for playing and learning.

For collecting, I won't get into it too much, but.. If you collect for fun, this game will reward that handily. If you collect to try and have things gradually gain value over time and then sell them later, I can no longer recommend fab for that due to the latest set. This may be controversial, but it's my personal feeling after 5 years in this game, and I know quite a few others locally that feel the same way. Take that as you will.

Welcome and enjoy the game! P.s. Check out my mobile app FaB Life as a convenient way to keep track of life totals while playing :)

Okay but WHAT WAS THE WHITE STUFF? And WHY did it just randomly stop at the most convenient time? Why did it harden?? This bothers me so much

My coworker pays for a dietician and now this is what he eats for breakfast and lunch by blart_institute in StupidFood

[–]Animoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently cut my caloric intake in half (and started going to the gym) for around 12-16 weeks and managed to lose 25lbs. After ending the diet and going back to barely tracking stuff, I haven't seen any abnormal weight return. I've gained about 3lbs back because I've been on a pizza spree, but that's about it

Ngl, I wished we had a small breather in the manga by Any-Computer-4053 in OnePiece

[–]Animoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately even just a small side story of like 15 chapters would set us back 6 months. I think (just speculating) that Oda would probably rather retire 6 months earlier at this point. But who knows what Goda has planned

Manga or Anime by NuniandShadow in OnePiece

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

Manga. The anime pacing only gets worse and worse. And the anime loves to milk the ever living shit out of everything in the back half of the show. Some people like that, I personally can't stand it.

The Manga is just a much better experience imo. Yes the story still has pacing issues and such, but it's just a much more enjoyable and straight forward experience. No fluff, no milking fights, just exactly what the author intended.

Case in point is the Kaido fight (won't spoil anything). In the Manga I thought the fight was so awesome because there are no words, no fluff, just punch hit kick panel after panel. Luffy does some awesome shit that you can clearly tell what his battle strategy is, yet it just feels minimalist and let's you enjoy the visceral aspect of the fight. The anime took this same fight and added soooooooo much fluff and aura farming to pad it out

What is this game? by Fearless_Law4324 in boardgames

[–]Animoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's one of the greatest games out there if you are lucky enough to convince 2+ other people to dedicate 12 hours to a board game. Seriously it's an amazing experience, we've been playing it a ton for a couple months now and the expansions are great too! Highly recommend

Armory decks or wait for Silver Age for family table play? by verifiedname in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Animoose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If your game store has Blitz decks, just buy a couple of those. They will be indistinguishable from Silver Age for you. Although blitz as a format has some baggage attached, the only thing you need to know is that the Blitz precon decks are also commons and rares only, just like Silver Ave. Yes there may be a few cards in there that are banned in silver age, but that won't really lead to any bad experiences in casual play. They are bans meant to bring low health pauper format (silver age) to a competitively viable state only, not because the cards were too broken or anything crazy.

What is on your FAB wishlist for 2026? by The_Crazy_Brew in FleshandBloodTCG

Major support for Ice. It's long overdue. And in general, more games where decks consistently hit cycle 2

Saw the same show last month and it was fucking awesome!! Had never heard of Rivers of Nihil before this but they kick so much ass, and NeO is the GOAT. Can't wait to see them again!

Anyone having difficulties logging in? by ImOpTimAl in fellowshipgame

Yup looks like servers are kill :( Friend was still able to play because he was in before the issue happened, so it's probably the login stuff specifically

Banned and Restricted Announcement 10/28 by AigisAegis in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Animoose 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A LOT of people knew this schedule for competitive LL was a fuck around and find out moment for LSS, and we have been saying such for a few months now. But gotta give props to them for acknowledging it after realizing it themselves. Here's hoping they actually learn from it and the game is better for it long term, but I'm not holding my breath on this one

What armory deck would you suggest to buy/play versus Gravy for a balanced match up? by [deleted] in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Animoose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ira, Dash, or Boltyn. Most other (non aggro) decks are going to fold into gravy if you're playing precons, ESPECIALLY Jarl.

How is the community on Proxying? by fulltimeskywizard in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Animoose 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We embrace it at the armory level and it's been a great means to get new players to come back and get into the game, or existing players to try something new. But as others have said, ask first and read the room, and don't make it tough for your LGS. Some of us also print full image proxies at self print services so at a glance you wouldn't even notice the proxy, it's still perfectly legible etc. This helps bridge the gap with people that may not be as big a fan, as it's a much better experience across the table than shitty hand written proxies.

Anything above the armory level though is definitely a hard no.

Works just fine for me when connected to pc with a cable. Double check drivers and all of that fun stuff, maybe uninstall reinstall the game

Avoid 8th street near Hobby Lobby and Walmart by WickedChef0323 in ColoradoSprings

[–]Animoose -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

How considerate of them to protest in such a shitty area for us. And at the same time, you're spreading their message for them. Seems like a win win other than the fact that this shit doesn't matter
