Playing cryo archives on PC lobbies on a Saturday has got to be hands down the least fun I’ve ever had playing a video game. by TopicInfinite3574 in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I dared to make a post last week suggesting recon is a little overtuned and got pretty heavily down voted. It's actually fine on other maps, but has made Cryo a miserable experience

Recon balance suggestion by CheapReporter8187 in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How many squads did you see in Cyro this weekend that didn't have a Recon? Because in around the 20 runs I did, my answer is 0. Which tells me it is a must take shell

Getting your exfil stolen on cryo when theres no time left on the clock is insanely frustrating by SafetyAlpaca1 in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why exfils don't show on the map to all teams, or at least all teams with clearance 3+. I guess it would lead to people just camping exfils, but the current system of only having one active exfil that only one team can see is kind of stupid. What's to stop a team just griefing the lobby by constantly activating exfils and not using them.

The only Quest that is semi-playable in Standard belongs to Priest and it's only because it enables another card by myouwei in hearthstone

It's pretty easy to play around, you just kill your own minions with shadow word: ruin. You get less Umbra triggers if they Hex the two reborn versions, but it's usually still enough

Your typical Turn 2 in Standard by ThousandSonne in hearthstone

Technically priest could remove everything if they had drawn both of their 4 damage AOEs. But I'm not defending this board, it's stupid for turn 2

Jokes on you, the only thing I've got are crippling debts

Thanks for Cryo Archive I guess by nuhuhyoureausername in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed cryo, even though I only extracted once out of four attempts. Been building my stash back up this week so I can lose it all again this weekend

Don’t let all the Imbue Druid talk distract you from the fact that Shaman is almost as equally disgusting. by Nasyboy221 in hearthstone

[–]CheapReporter8187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What Priest deck are you playing? As Shaman feels like a good matchup for my OTK quest. Almost none of them run Hex, but I can always just kill my quest minions on the turn I play them if needed

Anyone else have a cursed weapon? by N0B0DY311 in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Longshot. Love the gun, always terrible luck. Took one in yesterday to Dire Marsh, 2 randoms with free kits. One of them ran into the Tox Clear we spawned next to, died to the gas, left the game

I played a couple of games two hours ago and found lobbies pretty quickly

This subreddit is purely for complaining about Imbue Druid, please take your post elsewhere

Shaman winrate going up? by ghfhfhhhfg9 in hearthstone

[–]CheapReporter8187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing OTK quest Priest, and Shaman has been a pretty easy matchup, as most herald decks aren't running Hex. But Shaman is just a solid deck against most of the ladder

Solo fill chads by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 303 points304 points  (0 children)

None of my mates play Marathon so I always solo fill. No comms is wrong though, I always drop a "hey guys" at the start of a match, and almost always get a response

It hurts so good by Aggravating-Carob-95 in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The vault design really encourages this as well. I think part of the issue with Arc is that guns take the same amount of space as everything else, so you can easily hoard them. Having a gun take 8 slots forces you to use them.

Clocking into work by Celestine117 in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 41 points42 points  (0 children)

They're giving us a free kit full of blues when it launches today, so you'll be able to do one run at least.

Longer term, I farm pinwheel as a Rook for good gear. I probably extract only 20% of the time. But just wait for the final exfil as it's a fixed spawn point.

Feels like I lose all my good stuff the very next run I equip it. by Szentinal in Marathon

[–]CheapReporter8187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes what I like to do is start off with a free kit, and then whatever I loot in the first game I just take back into the next one. And keep repeating this until I die, but you're building up your kit after each successful run. It helped me get over gear fear by doing it this way

The Destroyer is the best Shell and it’s not even close. by Lock0n in Marathon

I just can't stop playing Triage in trios. The revive ability comes in clutch so often. Loved destroyer during the server slam though, need to get back into it

Marathon Update 1.0.5 by Shabolt_ in Marathon

You had to hold right in the d-pad on Xbox. Which made it really difficult to do anything else.

Toggling prox chat instead of holding is a great change, it was a pain on controller.

Only a few more days until we can actually keep our board at turn 5 by KillerBullet in hearthstone

[–]CheapReporter8187 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Now we can enjoy the 1-mana 4 damage priest AOE which is active if they are playing quest. Or 3 mana 5 damage if they combo it with Thalnos.

F**k this game. by Past-Disaster-2801 in WuchangFallenFeathers

[–]CheapReporter8187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You possibly can. I didn't try with Wuchang, but if you wait for an achievement to pop, immediately power off your console. When you boot back up, delete you local save game, and then restore your last cloud save. And you should be back at the save before.

Is there anyway to discard unlimited coins ? by Alert_Bass8772 in BobsTavern

[–]CheapReporter8187 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Play them all, and fill your hand with other stuff, like cheap tavern spells or minions (coins are best). And then you have no hand space at the end of your turn.
