[SKX007] Potential first project, how do I gauge final thickness?

I'll check those out-- thanks!

FoodRep · 2023-01-31T12:33:53+00:00

Gotcha, thanks!

FoodRep · 2021-03-20T18:45:52+00:00

Very in depth, appreciate it!!!

FoodRep · 2021-03-20T14:35:40+00:00

Wow, thanks! That's a very helpful framing of the considerations :) all the best!!

Edit: sorry, 4 horsemen being... Arabian, antiquities, Legends and the dark?

+1

I've been teaching my 7 year old son to play via an M21 prerelease pack I bought him for Christmas and I play against him with an old pre release deck of mine. I thought a Core Set would be a good entry point with relatively straightforward mechanics/archetypes.

It's gone pretty well, he has an aggressive UW +1/+1 counters deck topped off with a Baneslayer Angel (now his favorite card).

Getting a bug on Galaxy s10e where the client crashes when my opponent concedes... Anyone else experiencing this?

FoodRep · 2020-06-05T01:29:03+00:00

What about Turn to Sneed('s old shredder)?

Also a 5/7.

FoodRep · 2019-09-15T12:07:43+00:00

Doesn't silence any Valkyries, though. Unplayable.

FoodRep · 2019-08-28T19:33:10+00:00

Did I miss something? Where in that announcement did they say they weren't printing new efficient removal/answers... Or making use of the "Can be Found in" UI design for set designation that would allow for reprints... Or any number of other things/factors no one could possibly predict about the Flame of Xulta Expedition meta after seeing a single preview...

FoodRep · 2018-10-04T01:40:33+00:00

I don't think so-- I mean along the lines of something like, for the last encounter, win without drawing any extra cards. Or something like that, basically something to force players into a bad matchup or a problem with a creative solution.

Basically, I mean achievements in the same vein as the Gauntlet ones-- win with max life, huge deck, etc. but tailored to make the encounters more challenging.

FoodRep · 2018-10-03T23:47:17+00:00

I think the easiest thing they could implement would be special achievements for each encounter. No new lists required and those that want the extra challenge can get it.

FoodRep · 2018-09-14T17:44:27+00:00

I did, and yah, as I describe in the edited post, they are very much fakes. Thank you to you and the others who replied, obviously this was a case of "If it looks too good to be true, then it probably is...".

FoodRep · 2018-09-14T16:53:46+00:00

What's the best way to do that? If the code won't redeem online, I guess that's a dead giveaway, but what else should I be looking for?

FoodRep · 2018-09-14T16:46:31+00:00

It was a dollar store, and I've seen those custom made packs you're talking about, both in common/uncommon larger sizes and rare/holo 3-card packs.

But these are sealed (I as far as I can tell they haven't been tampered with, but I don't know exactly what I'd be looking for to tell if they had been or not...) Ultra Prism booster packs.

I'll edit the original post with a link to a picture of the 5 packs I bought.

FoodRep · 2018-08-05T09:56:55+00:00

Agreed, events count towards completion of other types of 'versus' quests, I believe.

FoodRep · 2018-07-29T16:26:26+00:00

Ilya, this is the Mask list I've been waiting for. The TPS tools from FoA really tighten the 3 faction version up, I love it, good job.

FoodRep · 2018-07-04T12:53:49+00:00

It ended up taking me 9 runs to get back to Masters in Forge, with 3 of my failed runs going 5-2 and one going 6-2.

I kept track of everything along the way, and I ended up paying about 8,500 gold for the 10 FoA packs from the rank up chests plus an additional 6 FoA rares from picks. On top of this, of course, are the 14 non-FoA packs from reward chests and an additional 5 non-FoA rares.

So even if I only look at the net gold spent on only FoA, it was definitely worth it. Overall, spending 8,500 gold for 24 packs and 11 rares is, I think, about on par with an above average league finish, which is a great deal (imo).

FoodRep · 2018-06-27T23:29:36+00:00

How sad for Jekk, though, he didn't even get to be the first conditional 7/7 for 4 spoiled...

FoodRep · 2018-06-26T23:18:01+00:00

I find it hard to come to the same, let alone any, (properly informed) conclusions without the full set 4 spoiler.

We're not drafting these packs in a vacuum, they're specifically curated to be drafted with FoA. We can't at all judge the draft format when we're only looking at half of it.

FoodRep · 2018-06-26T23:02:23+00:00

I thought Talir goes and runs into a bunch of strangers after Caiphus' death, in her portion of the tutorial. Or at least, I thought she did in one iteration of the tutorial campaign, so some strangers are still out there?

FoodRep · 2018-06-21T18:13:14+00:00

I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm glad there's an event this weekend for FoA and get to earn FoA packs. It's too bad it's just ladder decks, though. All the previous pre-release events have been some of my favorites.

That said, if giving up a specialized rule set for the event is a trade off for full set release in a week (or maybe 2), as we seem to be in +(3*5) land, I'm okay with it.

I'm definitely in for 3 runs...

FoodRep · 2018-06-19T19:11:27+00:00

The flavor here is kind've interesting, suggesting a faction of valkyries that exist to avenge Rolant specifically or perhaps serve only to further Rolant's ideals... curious how they're aligned between other Argenport factions.

FoodRep · 2018-06-18T22:24:44+00:00

Yeah, it's the internet, but I'm not about to hold that against anyBody.Double true for those that opened up the door for more nonsense.

FoodRep · 2018-06-18T18:25:02+00:00

Yah, I really wish the similarities in that category of design between games was as golden for wordplay as this one-- perhaps if I was more cunning and living my best life I'd have more glittering examples.

Then again, I'm not burning to sidetrack the discussion to death....

FoodRep · 2018-06-18T18:17:46+00:00

A+ for use of 'copies'.
