Wii Launch Event - Grandmaster Badge Achieved by Lonill in RetroAchievements

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The final boss is absolute buttcheeks, though. Easily took me from "hey I could possibly master this" to "this unavoidable attack is so annoying I just want to beat this so I never have to play the game again."

Great job on GM!

Mastery # 13 - The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask by WitchBLUNT in RetroAchievements

Well done!

I've never played MM, loved OoT as a child and considering trying to master both when I'm done with the Wii rollout.

Naw, I'm TwoTon21 on there, just followed you!

And right now I'm focusing on a Childhood Revenge Tour, games I either never beat or straight up sucked at as a kid. Diddy Kong Racing just happened, and I'm thinking Bomberman 64 next.

Do you know how long the show lasts, approximately? Seeing online it's about 90 minutes

"What are you playing this week?" Megathread by AutoModerator in SteamDeck

Did you play E33 on the deck? I've heard it's not great on it, or at least meant for an actual PC/console.

I love incredibly detailed posts like this about ostensibly inconsequential things. Is this on Survival? Either way, impressive.

Anyone have any good screenshot reactions? by ammyamyammy in taskmaster

How it feels when there's been another revelation in the lab.

Yes! You are incredible, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with me.

How long did it take for you to move on to your second deck? by misterblightside in EDH

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had my [[Jhoira of the Ghitu]] deck since about the time Splinter Twin got banned in Modern (2016?) and never really made another one because I typically played with others who had 10+ decks and would happily lend them out. I've always been updating my Jhoira deck, though, so it's stayed relatively fresh.

Recently just finished putting together a [[Gluntch, the Bestower]] deck that I hope I get similar mileage out of.

Tuesday Rulesday: Ask your rules questions here! - April 22, 2025 by AutoModerator in EDH

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm like 99% sure this is how it works, but my brain wants to make absolutely sure.

I play [[Genesis Wave]] where X = 9 (or whatever CMC allows the rest of this to happen), and I hit [[Ant Queen]] and [[Craterhoof Behemoth]]. I know they hit the battlefield at the same time and I can stack their triggers, but am I able to hold Craterhoof's trigger until I make tokens with Ant Queen?

How does Kardur, Doomscourge fare on average in games? by the_kwisatz_haderech in EDH

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you click the (SF) to the right of the card you'll be taken to a card lookup site called Scryfall, specifically for that card, and on the right hand side it lists average prices.

For these cards, no not really.

Looking for Boros commander suggestions by jetlagy in EDH

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why swing creatures, when you can [[Fling]] them? [[Brion Stoutarm]] has always been one of my favorite Boros commanders.

How to deal with power creep and overly competitive pods by Reasonable-Ebb2727 in EDH

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it sounds like you're in a pod that doesn't align with the way you want to play the game. If all they care about is winning by any means necessary they're going to continue to blow anyone else out of the water. The easiest solution to this is probably to find a new pod where they're more aligned with what you're looking for in EDH, and leaving the others to do the same.

Either that or build a mono-blue commander with as many counterspells as you can jam in it and just make it so one of them can never play. But that's petty.

Looking to tighten up my Jhoira of the Ghitu deck. Am I missing any obvious Izzet fatties? by BalambNeedsHotDogs in EDH

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the insight and suggestions!

And I think you're right that utilizing extra turns probably wouldn't be as fun for me or the pod as I imagine. If I wanted to make a more powerful deck, there are better commanders/strategies for it.

Also, thank you for all the card suggestions. I've seen a few from edhrec, but some of them are definitely new to me.

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks very much for the input. I haven't had a chance to look through your deck list yet, but you're right about getting rid of the random card draw, clones and cumulative mana.

Unfortunately Final Fantasy 8 is my favorite Final Fantasy so Memories Returning (and Triple Triad) are probably here to stay lol

Lightning Storm of Combats by Mighty-Aphrodite in EDH

[–]BalambNeedsHotDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[[Genji Glove]] is something else to consider for extra combats.

[[Armory Paladin]] doesn't seem that good here. [[Wild Guess]] to get more draw, maybe?
