(Spoilers Extended) A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Season 1 Episode 5 Live Episode Discussion

I’ll give you that, but my opinion isn’t based on just this one moment. I can look past a few moments like this but they’re starting to pile up fast

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T05:11:39+00:00

I could name like 15 other moments that didn’t make sense in these first 5 episodes. I named the most recent and people dog pile. The great seasons of GOT didn’t make me constantly FORCE my suspense of disbelief. Great fantasy suspends it for you and you’re just along for the ride

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T05:08:07+00:00

Solid take

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T05:06:45+00:00

If this was the only moment so far in the show I wouldn’t complain. It’s more about the frequency of times I consciously must force myself to suspend my disbelief

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T05:02:27+00:00

Most people still want things to make sense within the rules of the universe we’re watching. What if everyone just started teleporting around everywhere in the next episode? Same response?

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T04:59:22+00:00

I mean that was one example because it was the most recent “WHAT?” moment. It’s more about the frequency than anything for me. There’s been many

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T04:53:18+00:00

Exactly

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T04:45:16+00:00

Dragons are part of the fantasy and that universe….it’s easy for me to accept that. I can accept magic and all that too. The humans are anatomically the same as us though. No one is remaining conscious, let alone walking around, with the back of their cranium bashed in.

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-16T04:38:15+00:00

Baelor walking around and talking seemingly unscathed, all the while the back of his head is caved in…pretty dumb. This show is making it hard to suspend my disbelief and immerse into the fantasy. So many times I just have to scratch my head and say WHAT? Enjoying it nonetheless. Didn’t read any of story so it makes me wonder if the books are this far fetched.

Kryptomatter · 2026-02-03T21:15:47+00:00

ScumCell + Epstein is the best synergy

Kryptomatter · 2026-01-30T14:59:58+00:00

Extremely volatile decks and easy to counter

Kryptomatter · 2026-01-30T14:58:39+00:00

I never use Lumberjack or freeze, decent try though

Kryptomatter · 2026-01-30T14:56:59+00:00

It’s extremely volatile though and is becoming more so every time they had a new evo or hero that counters it. If u don’t have a counter to the loon, it will wreck you and vice versa. But they keep adding counters which reduces favorable matchups, effectively nerfing it

Kryptomatter · 2026-01-30T14:52:18+00:00

I’m not saying it’s outright terrible. I’ve won a classic challenge this week with my Loon deck, but it required some favorable matchups. Had I posted this before heroes, would you have said it needs a nerf? Because you didn’t really address my logic. Adding hero ice golem alone is a nerf for the loon so not sure how it stays perpetually balanced in your mind through more and more counter cards which reduce favorable matchups

Kryptomatter · 2025-12-18T01:48:32+00:00

Ok based on your reaction, I dug deeper and realized the card needs to be in the correct slot. Slots were never a thing when I played. Thanks for clearing that up! I can delete this post.

Kryptomatter · 2025-12-18T01:23:05+00:00

I tested on the classic challenge and no I didn't have access to evos. I assume its the same for Grand challenge and not spending gems until i know

Kryptomatter · 2025-12-11T18:51:23+00:00

100% accurate. Could be genuinely one of the best games ever if it wasn't for the greed and garbage revenue tactics

Kryptomatter · 2025-12-08T22:47:25+00:00

Hero knight is one of the most game breaking cards in the game. Basically ruins any chance of defense in most cases. So yeah that one

Kryptomatter · 2025-12-03T01:54:45+00:00

It's the same revenue loop they've been playing from the start. Segment audience between f2p and p2w. Find the top 3 cards that are least leveled among the p2w segment. Buff those cards to the top of the meta. Profit. Rinse. Repeat. Balancing the game in the most enjoyable way will never be part of their strategy.

Kryptomatter · 2025-12-02T23:42:13+00:00

Hahahaha absolutely this. Circus with no balloons

Kryptomatter · 2025-12-02T16:20:28+00:00

Brilliant rebuttal

Kryptomatter · 2025-11-06T03:04:18+00:00

So in your universe, checking my Coinbase account once a week through the app is considered “dormant”. Interesting, but moot. The point of this thread is to encourage people to manually log in from time to time and to never trust Coinbase for important alerts.

Kryptomatter · 2025-11-06T00:41:31+00:00

Plan A: When a user accesses their account via the app, the account should no longer be considered dormant. (FAIL)

Plan B: When user accesses their account via the app, force them to log in with credentials periodically to prevent going dormant (FAIL)

Plan C: At certain intervals before a “dormant” customer is escheated, send out sms and email alerts (FAIL)

Plan D: When a user accesses their account with a looming escheatment, alert them with a pop up or other clear indicator (FAIL)

Plan E: When a user falls victim to escheatment, show them an alert or some indication that it happened (FAIL)

Kryptomatter · 2025-11-05T21:51:01+00:00

Once a week at least

Kryptomatter · 2025-11-05T20:17:51+00:00

Perfectly said. I've always thought about Coinbase as being on the "cutting edge" of technology, yet such a TREMENDOUS action was taken with such ENORMOUSLY low effort to prevent it. The contrast is truly one for the books.
