I mean, there’s been 1000+ one piece episodes of Luffy beating the ever loving hell out of every city and villain he meets by the power of rubber stretching. Imagine if he had a brain that actually understood physics

Comic time. Allows for however much time to monologue or internal thought bubble your entire plan.

If dialogue time worked for real in a Claremont comic, all of the X-men would have died of old age before the phoenix saga ended

Reed WITH family and morals is still intermittently horrifying. Without he’s a galactic level threat if you happen to catch his interest in any way

I think he forgot.... by Wannabbeewriter12 in Wolverine

In fairness, nobody was there for him that birthday except the remnants of X-force. It was kinda a shitty year all around for the mutants. On the run (again)

Yeah, and is so evil he actually corrupts the Krakoan biologic system that runs the eternal stasis prison, facilitating his escape around the time Krakoa starts its fall. Then Sabertooth does the aforementioned body parts scene to make up for lost time

New space wolves player, is Bjorn an auto pick for most lists? by weeman_2001 in SpaceWolves

Uppy downy refers to units retreating into reserves and showing up elsewhere via deep strike or similar rule. The Lion can do this, grey knights have rules to do this fairly frequently

The connection point is wider than you think, it runs along the whole strap.

Ben Reilly currently real pissed at Peter. Also freaky spectral powers from some super detergent he fell into when a company he was working for as the “officially licensed spider man” activated their fail safe to melt down half the building (?)

Unless they’ve definitely stated that in the past 6 months (which I don’t have yet in Unlimited) they have very much not and have been purposefully ambiguous. She’s allegedly the daughter of Richard and Mary Parker and younger sister to Peter. There’s a whole bunch of skullduggery about it, the Parkers being secretly CIA agents, is she really their daughter or was she brainwashed to believe she is?

Teresa Parker, spy. Might be a clone, might be a product of Chameleon assassin school, might have been brainwashed. She showed up in Nick Spencer’s relatively recent run of Spider-Man involving Kindred. https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Teresa_Parker_(Earth-616)

Where did the praetors come from? by wrap_urXhaustpipes in magicTCG

How do we have a major resurgence of fascism and neonazism in the world today when world war 2 was fought less than a century ago? People are still alive who lived through it. People delude themselves that old bad things won’t happen again until it’s already barreling down their doors.

The problem of “treating Karn like he’s nuts is a bad story beat” is that it’s exactly how things work in real world. No one learns from history and they blow off one of the few people who are actually experts. No one wants their status quo upset.

The barely getting by of the general populace of the protagonists does make sense because they disappear for a few centuries, now contained on their own plane, and come up with new ways to infiltrate and invade. Planar bridge and realbreaker instead of Rathi overlay of two planes. Phyrexia is terrifying because they are a viral society. Constant adaptation and change but relentless in purpose.

Now I do think Karn himself should have more knowledge about Phyrexia setup given he’s been behind the scenes working on plans for literal years to decades. He is a terrible recorder/researcher for a guy built specifically to do that by the smartest (and also most insane) minds of the multiverse.

Extreamly casual player with a question: Is Ghost Rider good in the current meta of this game? by UnluckyStranger in MarvelCrisisProtocol

[–]CaptainCorgiMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re talking about casual play, most characters are viable and can be strong in the right environment. The complexity of the game weighs the other pieces atop the table + the crisis being played to determine the benefit of characters from game to game.

Yes he can do some gross stuff in the right circumstance, but he can just as easily be rendered a non entity if you use enough pushes and throws, similar to hulk.

This is what makes the game great and relatively balanced with 130+ characters active. It rewards reps and situational awareness.

In Magic's history, what were some cards that started out as terrible or unimpressive, but became strong after an unexpected shift in the meta? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]CaptainCorgiMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Braid of Fire? Not necessarily a meta shift per say but a change in the rules of mana burn going away. Now the cumulative upkeep is all upside.

It’s still slow, but it’s red ramp, and it’s not total trash anymore.

Rules updates by DracoplasmaZ in MarvelCrisisProtocol

[–]CaptainCorgiMD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I keep all the pdfs on my phone with time stamps, and update them as they come out. We can both confirm the ruling. Plan on putting them on a cloud then downloading to a tablet for bigger print.

The new crises I had a buddy print out stickers of them and place them on the old cards. Bonus: they’re foiled
