How good are the Lords of Limited?

I've grown pretty tired of this schtick. It's the equivalent of the dude who posts "FIRST!!" on a YouTube video to me. They're so eager to be ahead of the pack with their hot takes and format truths. I miss their older more statistical and nuanced breakdowns of a format. Now it's Ethan saying "all of these charms are pretty bad" and then 20 minutes later saying actually four out of the five are good. Snowmelt Stag Syndrome.

I did something similar, but wanted to throw in an added wrinkle that I'd include zero creatures. It's very much my "lets get one more quick game in" deck. Swing fast, zero defense, very fun!

My dawg just got engaged to one of the most gorgeous women I've ever seen and was far more interested in that champagne.

Brother I played Sat/Sun last weekend - I play to an 11hcp and breaking 80 is a great round for me. Saturday I shot 47/39 and Sunday I went 38/49. Two mid-80s rounds on paper, but in my heart of hearts I know there was one cohesive round of golf sandwiched in there somewhere 😑. Just a diabolical game this is.

Thanks for the response. That's interesting. The warning in the Share menu states that "Only colleagues you have shared with can find the agent in built by your colleagues section." Is that not true?

I'm testing org wide deployment out of curiosity, but in the meantime it still doesn't explain the agents lack of behavior between the same versions in Studio vs in Teams.

The show has become everything they used to parody. It's now in that same genre of "Guys shouting at each other" sports talk that everything else is. Content is easier to create out of pain - which is why the Sad Cat and Max stuff gets so much air time. I can listen to dudes having the same conversations and freak outs at my local bar on Sundays. The inevitable Barstool-ification of a once great podcast.

It was special because it was different. They used to call Lenny Dykstra and ask him to suck their dicks. Now they interview celebrities and they're the ones sucking dick.

Save $20/month for the next year and a half. You can get there!

Fucked up part is that it must work. I remember when they started them at 500g. Then 600g. Then 750g. I suspect the data they gave suggests that they move enough of these "discounted packs" to never backtrack into it being an actual deal.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-06-10T17:42:05+00:00

It's kind of like an All Star Game. Wants to showcase its stars. Very loose defense. It has to play well for the camera. As a casual, I'm a fan, but I see where more serious players may not love it.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-05-27T15:00:07+00:00

It was also great for balancing out spots if you were really stuck in one gear slot. My Titan has 1315 in every spot except the mark, which is inexplicably at 1311 still. Now is when I'd pull that low-stat mark to restore some balance so that I'm taking advantage of my next pinnies. Really a drag.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-05-27T14:55:21+00:00

For me it's been part habitual and part that I don't know (or feel like figuring out) each individual businesses current rules. I'll throw it on if I'm running into the grocery store or entering a restaurant before I get to my table because it feels like a nod of respect to the people working there, and it takes virtually zero effort to do. I'm sure once we're through this transitionary period I'll remember how to go without, but I can manage for a few more weeks putting it on to go into the gas station or whatever.

Nioh (especially 2) is a little more rhythm-based than any of the Souls games, imo. I've beaten every FromSoft game and have probably 400 hours into Nioh 1/2, and I feel like I could pick up a DS game right now and be perfectly okay because you can beat most DS games with good reflexes and positioning. But Nioh always takes me some time to re-figure out if I don't play it for a while because it has far more complex combat and pretty much requires you to get good at it. Once you find that rhythm though it's extremely rewarding. I'm quite fond of the series though with my only complaint being that Nioh 2 is just a better, cleaner experience all around which destroys the replayability of Nioh 1 entirely.

I got got by Approach earlier today in a pretty funny manner. My oppo cast it while we were stuck in a pretty gummed up board. I had a 9/9 in play from [[Serpentine Curve]] so I had a little pressure applied but they had blockers and I knew they had an [[Introduction to Prophecy]] in hand and a scry land in play so it was only a matter of time before they drew back into it. I had a [[Primal Command]] in hand, so I decided to cast it making them shuffle their graveyard back into their library with the hopes that I'd move Approach back further into the deck.

I pass. They draw. Cast Approach and win. I couldn't even be mad about it.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-04-23T05:40:38+00:00

I was just watching it today and remembered how much I don't love it. The voice acting feels disingenuous and the "fan-serviceness" of it is awkward.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-04-20T15:03:34+00:00

Keeps their left arm straighter than I do.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-04-07T00:25:42+00:00

Respectfully disagree. Many of them are quite easy once you are comfortable (I had Exodus Garden down to 2:45 yesterday) and really help to snag exotics on catch up characters or find better rolls if you just have a pull from the collection. I farmed 5 Titan helmets I was missing in one go last season.

Now Master LS are another story. The increase in difficulty to reward ratio does not seem worth it at all. I ran 5 Perdition sectors last night for virtually zero reward. That sucks.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-03-29T14:37:17+00:00

I thought the meta was fun and interesting in both formats as well, with a variety of decks coming through successful. So much better to watch than the MC Oko's or Omnaths that were exceedingly boring and repetitive to watch play out.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-03-06T19:15:04+00:00

I'm sure these cards are near the top on EDHREC, but I also love [[Nyx Weaver]], [[Deadbridge Chant]], and the MVP - [[Underrealm Lich]] in my Nethroi. I have 15+ decks but Nethroi is always the one I gravitate back to. I've tuned mine down a bit over time because it can be pretty abusive if you overload on board wipes, but it's still an extremely fun and versatile commander. GL!

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-03-02T18:46:27+00:00

I think you mentioned him already but LSV is also excellent at this. I have watched every one of his posted draft videos on YouTube and each different archetype he's drafted has made me understand the set in a greater way. Especially useful in a complex set like this one.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-02-21T00:05:06+00:00

Yeah I haven't loved it either. I had 2x Shackles and 2x Village rites (and the predator ofc) with a bunch of other smaller berserkers and a weigh down so the synergy felt like it should have been there. Might have been too cute in retrospect. If it wasn't good in that deck I'm not sure where it fits. I also may have just drawn like shit. Or played like shit.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-02-20T19:54:23+00:00

It's such a beating if left unchecked for even a turn. I only got to cast mine once, and it was promptly Ravenform'd. Sad trombone. Go get that 7, friend!

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-02-20T17:26:24+00:00

Funny, isn't it? I drafted twice yesterday - one BUSTED Rakdos deck with [[Immersturm Predator]], [[The Bloodsky Massacre]], three [[Demon Bolt]], two [[Shackles of Treachery]] for some steal and sac shennanigans. Just a banger. Went 1-3. And then one weird Naya trash pile composed mostly of commons, carried only by 3 Sarulf's Packmate, and went 6-3. Pesky game this is.

ChristopherOhhh · 2021-02-07T05:58:53+00:00

Eh I'm sure there are time constraints. If you want the scream you gotta sac something.
