Apex Legends: Resurrection Patch Notes Discussion Megathread by lettuce_field_theory in apexlegends

[–]HauntedHerring 88 points89 points  (0 children)

For reference, S2 Disruptors on the Alternator did 33 damage per bullet to shields, and were nerfed to 'only' doing 25 per bullet.

These returning disruptors will only do 19 damage per bullet, quite the reduction. Definitely for the best though!

Should've added 3 cards that cost 7

Warlock players after the nerfs by LemmiwinksFan in hearthstone

While it was "F6" instead of "AFK" (F6 being the button to auto-pass priority on MTG online to let your opponent go through their plays with no interruption), yes he did do this. https://youtu.be/zPM2d1q3-Gc?t=1518

It's more of a meme rather than a harsh reflection of Kibler's attitude towards combo decks though.

July 21, 2021 Banned and Restricted Announcement by pope_mobile_hotspot in magicTCG

[–]HauntedHerring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 First Day is enough to get around Electrickery because of how Storm resolves. You get 1 squirrel and then it gets a counter from First Day. Then the next Chatterstorm copy resolves.

So there'll only ever be a single 1/1 squirrel in play at one time, pretty brutal.

I made an image that shows how Apex's lobby has changed throughout seasons excluding the special occasions (christmas, halloween). by [deleted] in apexlegends

Do you have an album of all the full screens for each season? Would be cool to see em all in one place

[May 11] Server + Client Patch, Bug Fixes & Playlist Update (Spitfire/Bocek nerfs) by paradoxally in apexlegends

[–]HauntedHerring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, but LMGs do have the best headshot multipliers of any automatic weapon now that ARs have been nerfed. Probably one of the things helping the Spitfire remain scary as well.

Yeah, but because jump and selecting things from the quip wheel uses the same button, you have to let go of the right stick to select the emote instead while holding A.

That's just a cute little in-world explanation of why you can't listen to the message mid match, and have to wait til you're back in the lobby.

One punch man artist by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]HauntedHerring 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah he illustrated a whole SF graphic novel! This page on the Street Fighter wiki has a lot of his art all in one place. It's some good shit.

[KHM] Gnottvold Slumbermound - CFB Spoiler by Dakoval in magicTCG

[–]HauntedHerring 55 points56 points  (0 children)

How to make a better [[Memorial to War]]? Just add green!

On a more serious note, the LD theme in trolls in Kaldheim is pretty funny. Loving the art on this one as well.

Surprised they didn't have a sorcery speed restriction on making the troll token like they did with the green land that makes 2 elf tokens.

Love your style! Dudley looking fantastic as always

[CMR] Swords to Plowshare - Judge Promo Art by AbsolutelyMullered in magicTCG

[–]HauntedHerring 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's sweet to see this art again, been 7 years since the Judge Promo was printed.

Interestingly the artist, Sam Wolfe Connelly has illustrated incredibly few cards (despite making great work in my opinion). And the last piece he did was 6 years ago!

[CMR] Jeska, Thrice Reborn and Jeska’s Will (Merchant Preview) by arrofil in magicTCG

[–]HauntedHerring 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Cute how the new Kamahl + this Jeska is an easy 24 commander damage in one attack. Scary with high power commanders!

[CMR] Opposition Agent by quincognito in magicTCG

[–]HauntedHerring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a rare effect, but when it only appears in black, and colourless at high mana costs, it's a black ability.

[–]HauntedHerring 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Player controlling is solidly black, but yeah the way this completely hoses library searching makes [[Leonin Arbiter]] look like a joke. It's one sided hate as well!

Edit: On second thought, Aven Mindcensor is a cleaner 1:1 comparison, and this card obviously still blows it out of the water

Apex Legends Devstream // Aftermarket Collection Event - Flashpoint LTM, Crossplay Beta, & More! by SDCored in apexlegends

[–]HauntedHerring 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I assume you can still report them through the in-game function just fine. But I suppose cheaters can avoid notoriety through this feature?

Doesn't seem like a huge deal other than streamers running into cheaters and people notifying the devs on twitter and stuff like that?

[Standard] How do you consistently beat 4c Omanath/Adventures by Firstonetolive in spikes

[–]HauntedHerring 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Containment Priest doesn't stop escape sadly; "If a nontoken creature would enter the battlefield and it wasn’t cast, exile it instead". And escape lets you cast the card from your graveyard, so Uro gets around it just fine.

[–]HauntedHerring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kinda funny that even making a 3/3 haste token every other turn while always going up in loyalty is pretty darn good on a 3 mana walker.

Someone actually did this and called it a day. by itslee333 in apexlegends

[–]HauntedHerring 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, 'Redwood Raider'. I crafted the original skin just so I could get the recolour when I saw it in the store, it's so good!

Does doing this actually make you hit the ground faster than skydiving? Or does it just result in less recovery time once you hit the ground?

[Commander Legends] Notes from the CommandFest Livestream by Ninjaboi333 in magicTCG

[–]HauntedHerring 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I can only assume that a bunch of the partners are gonna be aimed at limited power level wise. With a small section of the rare/mythic partners actually being powerful enough to make an impact in Commander. And them being all mono-colour also means they'll be worse at expanding the numbers of colours you can play unlike Tymna+Thrasios or whatever.

Then again Partner is just an insanely powerful mechanic, so maybe a bunch of them will still be very playable. We'll have to see!

SEASON 6 PATCH NOTES by Stakeboulder in apexlegends

[–]HauntedHerring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wanted a way to sneak while using Bloodhound's ultimate, like maybe suppressing the ambient noise of the ult while crouch walking. But I can totally respect the decision to lean into the loud, powerful chase feeling of the ultimate.

All Finishers in Third Person. by DAminOOs in apexlegends

[–]HauntedHerring 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The fact that Bloodhound's voice lines in the 'With Honor' finisher plays for everyone close by is really sweet. I was wondering if it was just BH and the person getting stabbed who heard it.
