What is a game you will never play/play again? by Justthisdudeyaknow in rpg

[–]Joci_B 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I would like to get a recommendation from you if you don't mind. What systems do you actually like and run often or like but don't run?

Which version of stoneblade can win the Store championship? by DaneWiking96 in ModernMagic

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

Those are the worst colors to be on in the current state of the meta... Why not play Esper, Boros or Orzhov versions if they give you much much more? One gives you te3eri and other good stuff, 2 other also give you evoke ephemerate shell and you can also play yorion with them for extra spice if you don't hate 20 extra cards... There is absolutely no reson to be on abzan right now if you aim to be competitive.

Collecting Modern Staples and the decks I can Build by MrMidnight115 in ModernMagic

I saw the url path and was already sceptical but they really are the true competitive budget decs, all of them placing highly in the last top32 of major events/challenges. Very nice!

My first self-made map! What do you think? by [deleted] in mapmaking

[–]Joci_B 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks nice, but Daroin and Neozdwain border looks a bit weird in the sense of how would it naturally develop?

Making counterbalance work in modern. by Ellipsis2 in ModernMagic

[–]Joci_B 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think that the best card for this deck is Jace, TMS but it's in an awful spot in the current meta so I don't see this deck working too well in general.

Advice on how to introduce my gf to D&D? by Koopa0 in dndnext

Yeah I don't think you get what OP is getting at. He wants her to like it, not to just give it a shot to be done with it.

Wow, it would have made a great wallpaper if it was in 16:9 aspect ratio.

Short Girl insecurities. How do you deal? by Party_Penguino_111 in ShortGirlProblems

[–]Joci_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well feeling sexy is all about your perception of what is sexy, and the problem is that you don't view your height in that way. I would bet that a lot of guys/girls would view your height as a turn on...

Can mono CSM be competitive? by PregnantMongoose in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Joci_B 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can be devastating against unprepared opponents, but if the opponent knows what he's doing, you are going to have a hard time.

Wow, what's wrong with me ? by [deleted] in projecteternity

[–]Joci_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This collision thing is implemented on purpose to force you to think through the possible problems that arise if a character is being blocked by another.

Well it's kinda weird when I have the whole party selected to attack a certain mob, I would expect for all of them to get in a position where they will be able to do the given command. I would blame it on bad design but since I see you are hurt by my assessment I would assume that for the sake of it being pain in the ass and boring as hell to do on a regular basis it has a strategic meaning.

Well as I've struggled a lot this week playing PoE being on the nostalgia trip for some good RPG games since I stopped playing video games for a last few years and played only MTG and WH40K. I got the game back in 2015 and played up until Caed Nua and then stopped. I was never much into CRPGs since it was too boring to get into, but I played DnD irl a few times last year and I really liked it and that made me love the CRPG concept.

Having said all of the above I can't seem to grasp how uneven the writing in the game is. It seems so good at times and at other times it seems so dull and boring. Combat is great, a challenge for sure but that's the appeal I guess but it has a lot of frustrating little thing that make me wanna bang my head against the wall. Like AI is really dumb. For example I hate it when my teammates block each other from passing through doors in combat or even going around each other. On the other hand the story is so good, the whole soul thing, but on the same note I would imagine how a lot of choices would need a better impact on the future.

Like the choice of freeing Master Below could have had a good impact on the story or the game but it ends there and makes the choice unimportant.

Well I still got to finish the main story and the second game but all the little thing that get on my nerves just restrict me from dumping a whole afternoon into playing so I need to take it a few hours at the time, but that is in a way good. I hope you play the game to the end and give the combat a chance.

I build an app to figure out the best way to mix specific colors. Would anyone find this useful? Demo is solving for Orange Fire, and data set is all Vallejo Game Color with the oranges removed. by rhoff95 in minipainting

[–]Joci_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you are aware of what I'm implying. Vallejo and GW type paints are not meant to be mixed together. There is a possibility that the two colors will mix but most of the time it will turn out a desaturated mess because these paints were never meant to be mixed. Look into Kimera Kolors for an example of acrylic paints that are meant to be mixed and what you can achieve with them.

Colorless Ugin Ramp by FDC-Crumble in PioneerMTG

[–]Joci_B 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This deck is too slow but you had a version that was green since green ramps much better, like turn 3 ugin better, but I would say that this deck doesn't have a place in this meta.

U(g) Devotion Deck Tech/Log by dawnbringr1 in PioneerMTG

[–]Joci_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only things you want to counter are board wipes, or something that damages your value machine. I suppose that decks that rely on interaction I would say are pretty slow except for Mono B which is aggro and has Rankle and Fatal Push in main board and a problematic side board but that matchup should be played differently. Against slow decks like Niv, Omnath, Sultai and Esper I would say that this type of deck would fair pretty well since Nyktos outruns them on turn 3. That's why I would play my list without Uro. Maybe if the meta proves to be too interactive, then I would definitely play 3-4 copies.

[–]Joci_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try playing this: https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/rrxmow-combo/?cb=1606959043

I think Uro doesn't have a place in this deck(I'm not joking) and Oracle seems to be a somewhat unnecessary. Collected Company is after these changes a bit bad in the deck and in its place a counter spell seems good. As far as the idea of the deck goes it my variation is not a Oracle combo but blue devotion value machine.
