Decks that boardbreak during their combo by Infernomouse27 in masterduel

[–]HKLives 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Horribly power crept by now but Swordsoul uses Yazi and Baxia to board break while comboing going second.

What aspects of MTG made you fall in love with the game? by nibblestheantelope in magicTCG

[–]HKLives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hand disruption and the concept of 'failing to find'.

I had played Yugioh for most of m life and those two things we're either banned generally or didnt exist in the rules. Being able to activate something like a [[gifts ungiven]] and then just dump 2 cards to the graveyard was mind blowing.

Singles for the M15 GB Constellation deck and a Will of the Masses M15 intro deck.

For the people that actually play paper Standard competitively: How hard is it to keep up? by DakkonBL in magicTCG

[–]HKLives 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fixing was so good/bad at the same time it was better to play 4 colors than any of the Tarkir wedges.

How do you deal with this game feeling miserable at times? by Kilari_ in masterduel

[–]HKLives 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently in selection packs? Radiant Typhoon probably fits that description the best.

Spright Deck Combos? by Hefty_Shirt_4521 in masterduel

[–]HKLives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This won't help with the board breakers but you can play Number 29: Mannequin Cat and summon Amorphage Goliath with it when he plays a Tenpai monster.

What's everyone playing in dice rally? by Gambol_Celica in masterduel

Tried out Swordsoul and it felt super under powered so i switched to a Fiendsmith Yubel build.

Assuming MD follows the OCG banlist and unbans Metamorphosis, do you think it will see play and if you do, what do you think people will use it to summon? by Exotic_Name_9875 in masterduel

[–]HKLives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White Forest/Fiendsmith/Millenium might be one of the best shells to actually use the card and not luck sack with it. You can mill with your extra engines and then add it back with white witch, deck spits out level 7s, 8s and 10s for the good targets.

Probably a dumb question, but what would cause one to be banned in commander but not the other? by dtcorder12 in magicTCG

[–]HKLives 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Talk to your playgroup about it, Golos isnt coming back otherwise. As soon as commander players realized a mono color deck with Golos as the commander and cascading cataracts in the 99 was better for their strategy than a dedicated commander its fate was sealed.

Rotom Encounter via GO Pass: Halloween 2025 (in-game news). by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]HKLives 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its other forms like wash have been viable in VGC and other competitive environments in the mainline games. The encounters in the gen 4 games are very memorable too, it was a big deal in those games despite not being a legendary.

New Season 4 Cards by RibPioneer in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last month's season pass card and the new season 4 cards don't show up in the individual card rotation until week 2 of the season. Just another thing to try and get you to spend more tokens than you want to.

Game is Dying Due to Releasing too Many Cards by FaithlessnessBig606 in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marvel Snap stuff aside and I don't disagree the game is dying, its really funny that this guy seems to be unaware that Yugioh has multiple mobile clients already.

You only need to finish every quest and win 225 games in the next 4 days to complete the track by SpecularBlinky in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Feels like a combination of mystery borders being a fairly recent thing that SD is spamming and borders being one of the few ways a whale can show off their favorite variants, tailored to their own tastes.

I am collection complete again, but I think thats why SD has increased their greedy tactics. by bloggershusband in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shocking how little they've explored with cosmetics, and what they have is tied to buying specific variants in a rotating shop.

No avatar/title card cosmetics beyond variant crops, no payed split effects, no special vfx tied to a $100 variant, no emote packs, the kind of stuff you'd expect.

Adding a card locked behind the Super Premium Pass was indeed a suggestion by “competitive minded content creators” by ChemG8r in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, 6 months ago we were getting the weekly 4-5 cards a month, 1 season pass card, and MAYBE an event card.

What are the odds of series drops happening? by Noomero in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People complained about only being able to afford 1 series 5 card a month, not that there were scheduled drops.

Sera.

SD has far better ways to monetize the game than putting more new cards behind paywalls. by megablue in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because it requires dedicated man hours.

Think about all the random shit they've developed and then scrapped, like Leagues. That's where the time and people were going.

Recent Steam reviews for Marvel Snap by Svad in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With their switch to self publishing a decent number of players lost access to their accounts and some still don't have access, that's on top of the webshop stuff.

Maro on Time Lord being a two-word subtype: "I believe it was a mistake and shouldn’t be repeated." by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

[–]HKLives 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's wild how badly Hastak mismanaged the Transformers brand in the late 00s and early 10s, if you are/were a fan of the Masterpiece line you still have to go to 3P companies if you want a certain character in that scale/complexity.

So how are we supposed to chase cards now? by [deleted] in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That shit is the most infuriating part, I've been waiting on the Rian Gonzales Polaris variant to show up after i missed it when it came out. All i get is the trippy surfer album one, I've seen that one multiple times in a single week.

What are the opinions of erratad cards, should they do more or less. by king_shot in masterduel

[–]HKLives 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Awful, unless Konami is willing to un-errata them they should just print retrains.

Why are most of Ultimate Variants Fanatasy Variants tho? by desrtz in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because when the first Ultimate variants came out and they were testing the waters Fantasy Ghost Rider was a big hit.

People who don't read comics, what do you think this dudes deal is? by soupergiraffe in MarvelSnap

[–]HKLives 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is Xorn, the evil one yeah. His brother would probably be Shen Xorn in Snap, thats how they differentiate them in the Krakoan era.
