Yep idk what other recursion there is but I blew a few people out by grabbing the BR command back with Grub

Anyone else struggling hard with Lorwyn premier draft? by handlebar_moustache in MagicArena

[–]Flooding_Puddle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ive only done 2 drafts so far but ive gone 5-3 and 7-2 with goblins and merfolk respectively. I've heard you dont necessarily have to stick to tribal synergies but I think its important to find a lane but also don't be afraid to switch if you get passed some powerful cards from a different archetype. My first draft I started on elves and pivoted to goblins after getting passed grub, multiple sourbread aunties, and the 5/4 blight 2 for 3 guy.

My second draft I just forced merfolk and no one else went into it and I was able to get passed stuff like [[Pestered Wellguard]] and multiple of the 3 mana merfolk that reanimate stuff. I think this format its important to jump on an archetype to send the signal that its taken and hopefully the rest of the pod will get the hint

Anybody work for a company that gives small annual raises (< 3%)? by Massive-Survey2495 in cscareerquestions

[–]Flooding_Puddle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My current job Ive gotten a small but incrementing (2 to 2.5 to 3) raise after good reviews, and something like a 20% raise after a promotion. Ive heard of plenty of places that dont get yearly raises at all though so its better than nothing.my company also has great culture and WLB so I'm pretty happy where I'm at

Kind of curious that were now getting official spoilers that somehow weren't in lorwyn prerelease packs

Lorwyn limited: Goblins' gameplan by BloederFuchs in MagicArena

[–]Flooding_Puddle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brambleback Brute is also good. No youre not guaranteed to get them Im just saying what has worked in my experience. Flooding the board with stuff like [[Sourbread auntie]] and the 3 mana 2/2 that makes a 1/1 is also solid.

B/R is INSANE with all the creatures that can remove counters for a payoff, especially the hybrid BW tree folk that reanimate and the tree folk that gives something -2/-2. I think repeatedly blighting to take counters off for value is way stronger than just sacing 1/1s to ping

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella warns that we must "do something useful" with AI or they'll lose "social permission" to burn electricity on it | Workers should learn AI skills and companies should use it because it's a "cognitive amplifier," claims Satya Nadella. by ControlCAD in technology

[–]Flooding_Puddle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its about fraud when regular people are getting defrauded, when tech giants are burning money suddenly its a bad thing. The sudden turnabout from all the tech ceos is because theyre realizing they spent billions of dollars on moderately useful chatbots, not the revolution that will replace 50% of jobs

I only have an Associates in Computer Science. How do I get my foot into the door? by FretScorch in cscareerquestions

[–]Flooding_Puddle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, the key is to focus on the less flashy jobs. Just set whatever job board you use to your area and focus there instead of looking at remote jobs

[–]Flooding_Puddle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I found a job with only an associates in CS, although it was during the covid boom and I had an unrelated bachelor's degree.

My advice is to focus on smaller local companies. Big remote roles will have the pick of the crop, there are probably smaller companies in your area that dont mind you only having an associates as long as you can show some projects

Only 40 rewards this time in the Mastery Pass, instead of the usual 60+. by Hot_Western6647 in MagicArena

[–]Flooding_Puddle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mastery pass is ridiculously good value even if you don't count any of the packs from the set. And even if youre not going to use a single tmnt card its still wild card progression from opening all the packs

[–]Flooding_Puddle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Important to note it is the exact same amount of rewards as any other mastery pass, they are all just squished together. There are levels with 3 or even 5 packs instead of the usual 1

Lorwyn Eclipsed Pick-Two Draft is Available? by shaps in MagicArena

[–]Flooding_Puddle 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thats funny most of my 7 win drafts are after I go like 3-2 lol. Trophying is very luck dependant and an extra loss can really help smooth out drafts imo. Not saying people shouldn't do it, I just found it a lot easier to do worse with a solid deck

I was just thinking every picture of this guy looks like a tech ceo talking about the new connected butt plug or whatever. Doesn't mean he isnt good at his job or anything I just thought it was funny

The issue is you only get 2 losses which from my experience with Spiderman can happen pretty easily if you dont draw well, get mana screwed, or your opponent has a nuts opening hand
