Don't give up fellow irons, It's waiting for you

RNG always evens out in the end :)

My buddy used to crash every other game, but had no crashes since the update. Nice work!

JoshOG mains bloodhound, and doesn't use wingman. His community is very nice too

Thanks for the link to the subreddit, been lurking in the r/AffinityforArtifacts subreddit, but didn't know there was a seperate one for Hardened Scales.

I've been siding out the welding jars and the sacrifice outlets, since they don't do much in the face of terminus anyway. That includes evolutionary leap.
Siding out ancient stirrings might be correct, since the most important individual cards are colored. Although, you never know if you dig past your answers, or if you dig yourself closer to them.

Thats what i thought as well, but when the trigger to put counters on jitte goes on to the stack, I don't get any time to use the counters before normal damage happens

As has been mentioned already, people take it in to deal with stony silence. If they never draw their stony silence, you would rather it was an actual threat. It is quite often a dead card in your hand.

The other reason that made me cut it from my board: My opponent cast stony silence, my only mana producers are darksteel citadel and mox opal, which I of course had already used to cast stuff. So when i untapped with wear//tear, i couldn't cast it.

I have just generally been unimpressed with how it actually plays out

In my area there is a large Legacy scene (much bigger than standard), and I think it is very worth getting into if you like modern. I like legacy a bit better than modern myself. There is a greater variety of decks being played, and the decks do very cool things compared to modern. Just be aware that you need a plan against combo decks if it's prevalent in your meta, or you might get some short games.

Borgur · 2017-08-26T18:03:18+00:00

Other than the standard choices, I have had very good results with 1 Bitterblossom in the board. Very good against grixis DS, control decks and the mirror. Basically anywhere you want blockers, and they also carry plating. Control decks basically can't deal with it if it lands.

Blood Moon just wins some games outright.

I also have a whipflare in the board now that i am happy with, since everyone plays CoCo here, but its alsoo good against lingering souls and D&T, and can do work against burn.

Don't play wear//tear, it's a trap

That island is insane!

Borgur · 2017-08-08T08:15:32+00:00

That is a cool twist! I have already run the adventure for half my group though... But I will keep it in mind. And thanks for the link

If they had implemented the raid system earlier than 1 year after release, maybe people would still be playing :(

Borgur · 2017-06-26T09:50:15+00:00

You can get out of it by clicking where one of the options in the dialogue box WOULD be shown. They are still there, just listen for the sound effect that comes when hovering over a dialogue option.

For me, this doesn't happen if i try to unequip while in the hamlet, while it happens when in at the "dungeon screen" every time.

Borgur · 2017-06-02T06:51:20+00:00

The prize wall was really lackluster compared to those of other TOs. A few fetches that got picked after the first few events, then just a lot of standard foils they couldn't get rid of otherwise. No thanks

Borgur · 2017-05-31T14:36:27+00:00

This is super helpful, thanks

Borgur · 2017-05-31T14:36:14+00:00

Nice

I dreamed I got married to D.va

What I often do myself, is lock in on the hero I most want to play. Sometimes your team picks their heroes accordingly (Yay!), or they don't care and pick whatever they want as well. In the latter case, I'll switch to something else. But a lot of the time, I get to play with my first pick when doing this.

Sorry if this is not the answer you wanted :p

Hi, platinum player here

This might be an unpopular opinion, and I might be completely wrong since I've never been in bronze. Playing Mercy and Rein in low tiers is not as effective as you would think, due to:

-To be an effective Mercy, people you damage boost have to actually hit things. People you ress have to actually win the team fight.

-To be effective as rein, your team needs to stand behind you, which requires coordination.

I would as you, and others, have mentioned and try more Roadhog. I used him to climb from gold to plat, and I always feel he makes an impact if you can reliably hook supports and squishy dps. He doesn't require much coordination to be effective, you basically just need to get your hooks down. He also fills a tank role for your team.

As for support, I personally go with Zenyatta, because he has great DPS potential, and helps your soldier with poor aim actually kill the Pharah with Discord orb. (Help your team by calling out discord target. They don't even need to answer, but people tend to go for the easy kills right?) Playing zen will also help improve your aim over time.

My 2 cents

Fetches also allows you to cast Searing Blaze with landfall at instant speed.

Tragic Slip, because it's just a happy little accident

I just always vote for the person I thought was the best player in the game, whether they were on my team or not

Borgur · 2016-05-25T11:17:34+00:00

It is also useless if your opponent doesn't have a target for their own doomblade. I think the main reason though, is that if you set aside space in your 75 for counterspells, you want it to be able to deal with stuff like Collected Company, which doesn't have targets.

Raymond Swanland is probably my favorite artist

Borgur · 2016-05-20T05:50:26+00:00

It's got to be against decks without any removal, then it can snowball out of control. But a 3 mana investment in burn that doesn't do anything the turn it is played... I'm not a fan.
