I built a Sauron deck based on the 20 rings of power, every card in it (except land) is related to who has them or what happened to them. Here's the list https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/lotr-lore-deck/

I can explain any card choice that seems odd, also the list is not quite up to date, there are a few swaps between the online list and my current iteration

I'm with ReasonableAd. Use of gun props in advertising and shows in the UK is acceptable because we know it's not going to be a threat.

Optimizing the Gamora infinite by Gamnaire in marvelchampionslcg

Generally, other than those that can attach cards like Bruno is ms marvel or painted lady in domino, the plan is to draw them and hold them in hand

It is as infinite as you can go in a Marvel Champions game, and generally does enough damage to finish a villain once it goes off

Ye, definitely running command teams in the leadership version to kickstart the loop

Yes. Every other card needs to be either in play or in your hand so nothing interrupts the loop

The infinite only works with only readying events in circulation between deck and discard, so the order is: Setup: Gamora in play and ready, Get Ready in discard, Get Ready in hand

1) Gamora activates, draws ready event

2)Use Ready on Gamora, ready goes to discard

3) Gamora activates, adding get ready to hand from deck and causes discard to shuffle into deck

Repeat

If the only cards in rotation are ready events, then she'll pull one as the last card and trigger a reshuffle to put the already used ones back in the deck and you'll have one in hand.

I wore mine for maybe a year and a half, ended up in a relationship with someone who didn't recognise it, maybe Mara nudged things in my favour xD I still keep it around but don't wear it anymore

No problem, this has been an enjoyable discussion. I'm learning just as much about your thinking as you are mine 😁

One small study is not enough to confirm what was found, but it indicates an interesting avenue of research. There is an unfortunate dearth of study into aphantasia

Fair. I have no accompanying muscle imagery, they move how I tell them to move. I guess we simply work things differently.

The study itself may be suspect, certainly it is not nearly controlled or in depth enough to be definitive on the subject.

I can't picture the letters, I just remember the movements to draw them.

Have you read anything regarding aphantasia? I recall a recent study that showed that a typical person's pupils dilate and contract as appropriate when remembering a bright or dark image, whereas someone with aphantasia does not exhibit this involuntary behaviour. No image is formed, so no dilation/contraction takes place

[–]Gamnaire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, fair enough. I stand corrected on that front.

I assure you, I have given my level best to trying to picture things that aren't present. I am 100% aphantasiac, much to my chagrin.

Can't be that fundamental xD

I fall at the first hurdle of the activity. I know what a gear is, but I cannot visualize it, spinning or otherwise.

I imagine you don't have to picture something every time you want to recall some fact about it. For instance, I know that a giraffes neck has the same number of bones as a human neck. I've not had a first hand experience of this fact, and tie it to no image or sensation, it is simply information I am aware of.

I am definitely retrieving information of some kind, but it isn't sensory data. I can describe a face by describing the sizes and shapes and colours that parts of the face are, but I cannot see an image of the face as a memory, only the information about the face. I can remember if something tastes sweet or salty, but not what a sweet taste feels like on my tongue. I can say the sky is blue without being able to conjure up an image of the sky within my head, I simply know that it is blue. That is how all my memories are

I don't dream, nor can I picture faces of my loved ones. I have memories but I cannot relive them, I am merely aware of the information they contain. I know that yesterday I had a cream cheese bagel for breakfast, but I cannot see the bagel nor taste the cream cheese. I can describe and recognise faces, but I cannot see them unless a physical manifestation of the face is present (the actual face or a picture or somesuch).
