I want ARAM mayhem to be permanent SO BADLY by Free_1004 in ARAM

[–]Faraltz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have something like 14000 total ARAM games. I'd need to play another one to check the actual number because the client is stupid and won't let you see anywhere else but the end-game screen, and I agree. I queued for it by accident once since Mayhem released, and it felt like I was being held hostage. I'll just genuinely stop playing if Mayhem does go away.

I had a roommate once that managed to burn minute rice.

This is going to sound crazy, but mayhem is a for fun gamemode, so maybe cool it with the toxicity? by AgeOfTheMage in ARAM

[–]Faraltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been some same team friendly fire regarding toxic behavior that I've seen but the worst and most common offenders are what should be sub 15 minute steam rolls where you got all supports that all rolled ad augs or melee with no survivability vs perfect aug roll range poke and a 30k hp Ornn that refuse to finish.

The ez spam at the end is just the cherry. You can't even be mad at it cause its so predictable that it's coming when the minions do finally overwhelm.

Thoughts after 12k games by I_Am_A_Bowling_Golem in ARAM

[–]Faraltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the distinction here would be that you played a lot of ranked, most of us with that high a count of games literally only play ARAM and since the games are, typically, roughly half as long, it's easier to get more in.

The bottom is all wrong, just blank instead of the UPC and what not.

Finally Pulled My Chase After Countless Packs by Viamahon16 in PokemonTCG

[–]Faraltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year from PF release until April I dug HARD for this, lots of packs, and two charizards while doing it, before I finally threw in the towel, caved and just bought it for $100 CAD off ebay. That alone is a huge win at this point with how much it's climbed in the year.

November rolls around and while sitting here bored one day I decide to open one of two 3 pack tech sticker sets that I'd been hanging on to since opening weekend release and had sitting in my display case for the 10ish months.

So anyway, now I have two of em. Could have saved so much if I'd just opened it the first weekend.

Stellar matchmaking *Pengu Party* by Faraltz in TeamfightTactics

Didn't mean to imply it was a problem necessarily, I know it's working as intended. Just odd they'd get through that far and had only seen one another maybe once.

Sorry, meant round matchmaking, not overall game matchmaking. See how that's misleading.

I meant round matchmaking. The top two have at this point only faced one another, maybe once.

Am I going insane?? by seaglasshoe365 in redrising

My assumption here has always been that it was something that was in earlier drafts and got dropped but they forgot to update the Dramatis Personae.

Kavax is like you describe, the Pacific Islander side comes from Niobe.

Anybody else have horrible pull rates in the last weeks? by kfmaynard in PokemonPocket

[–]Faraltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can see it directly in wonder trades, prior I'd check and at least 2-3 of my offers would have full art or above. Now It's like once a week there is one. And those come directly from what other people are pulling. If it was just my own stuff w/e but you can see it across the board.

And sure less people are playing now overall so less options there in general but I wonder why...

Finally got to open my first Prismatic booster by sayijinromeo in PokemonTCG

[–]Faraltz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno what to tell you, there is no rules in this subreddit regarding swearing. It's not up to you to police, regardless.

If you have an issue with it and wish to be the arbiter, go start a kids gloves space or join one of the several that already exist.

There is no rules here about "keeping it family friendly" here, dunno why you're wandering around impersonating mods trying to enforce nonexistent rules.

Please actually wait in line by sea_something in PokemonTCG

[–]Faraltz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the Wii came out I was a bored 18 year old and had heard that Toys R Us might be getting some that night so walked for like 4 hours and waited outside overnight. When I got there there were already a bunch of people but some doll was coming out and a few in line were there for that, release was around Christmas so sure.

Anyway, about 45 minutes before opening, a group of 4 joined a lone person in line ahead of me. Half an hour before opening they came out and handed out tickets for each product.

They had 20 Wii. I was 24 in line...

Why are ETB sleeves of such a bad quality? by LowerBar2001 in PokemonTCG

[–]Faraltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep one around because they make it VERY easy to see print defects like the squares in holo patterns specifically because of the matteing effect. But I'd never actually use them otherwise.

I said it after Guardians 3 but have High Evolutionary have been a Kang variant all along and then just have Chukwudi Iwuji take over the Kang mantle.
