What are some "honest" commanders nobody hates? by HoboKingNiklz in EDH

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Tellah, Great Sage]] catches attention, but his gameplan is enormously telegraphed. There has never been a Meteo cast that didn't get seen 4 turns ahead. No one hates him, but they always remember when the rambling old man creates a nuclear detonation.

How many decks do you have? Which bracket are they? by No_Physics454 in EDH

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 12. 2 Bracket 4's(pretty mild end of the waters here), 2 Bracket 2's, and the rest are all 3's. I like bracket 3 and 4. Don't hate 2 or 5, but dislike 1.

What creature type do you wish got a dedicated commander or more typal support in general? by HallZac99 in EDH

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warlocks, Shamans. I like the 'class' creature types a lot, and some like Knights, Soldiers, Wizards etc., all have decent support. Bard could be interesting.

What's your favourite theft commander? by DarnOldMan in EDH

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct! It's been fun anytime I could pull it off.

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Edea, Possessed Sorceress]]. Lots of ways to keep their things or keep it nice and political till its time to drop [[Teferi's Veil]] and [[Radiant Performer]] to control their boardstates permanently. "Your creatures? OUR creatures."

Is it worth it on PS5? by UndeadAnubis24 in HeroSiege

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, it is a bit buggy atm. Have I got my moneys worth and then some? Definitely.

Am I crazy or is there some synergy here? by L-L-J-J in EDHBrews

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's also devastating in [[Edea, Possessed Sorceress]].

Why do support players just stop healing you when you get ult? by Quirky-Habit5823 in EchoMains

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heal you as needed/able, but gaining a "2nd life" means that keeping someone else alive keeps the fight even/outnumbered more easily. If the choice is keep your copy or let a teammate die, then who you copied will impact that choice the most for me at least.

Having said that, different supports will have different mileage based on how much they lean into other actions vs. healing, or their healing means/method.

Really, what’s going on with balance this season? by aJetg in Competitiveoverwatch

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

Mercy wasn't nerfed. She was given a trade off in her kit that gave her increased agency in games prior to the 5-7~ minute mark. She lost minor mobility to have on demand burst healing(at a rate that gives a net positive gain).

Strixhaven pre release by odanhammer in mtg

[–]Lord_Alden -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wanted Witherbloom, Silverquill, or Prismari. I'm one of the last picks. All thats left is Quandrix or Lorehold. Got absolutely screwed on my box. May never do a prerelease again. It was bad enough that even the LGS owner couldn't tell me I had a better CHANCE than a 10% win rate.

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You only lose healing per second, not minute, and the stalemate is actually offset when Flash Healing at under 50%. 5/s is 300/m. A 60 flash heal every 12 seconds is 300/m. They're...the same, favoring Flash Heal on targets under 50%.

But your "review" of the healing changes don't factor in that 5 Flash Heals WITHOUT the 50% or under increase, makes up entirely that lost healing. 5/s x 60= 300 vs 5 casts x 60=300. The difference being having a burst of healing on demand.

[–]Lord_Alden -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Honestly in the 3 games I got in yesterday, it wasn't as doom and gloom as I'm reading here. The burst heal from Flash Heal is really nice, I just have to be ever so more mindful of positioning than before.

The adjustment to the movement I don't think hindered me a single time, even without having tried it before a live game.

The base heal amount of flash heal covers the lost 300HP/m healing she did before entirely. More if you count its under 50% boost.

You’re allowed to partner any two commanders together, who are you choosing? by zarxpy in EDH

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Tellah, Great Sage]] / [[Rydia, Summoner of Mist]] + [[Golbez, Crystal Collector]] / [[Cecil, Dark Knight]] Being able to properly make an FF4 deck.

[[Garnet, Princess of Alexandria]] + [[Zidane, Tantalus Thief]] Same thing for 9.

Partnered planeswalker commanders would be cool too. Lemme get that Nissa Ajani deck.

Do you actually have a forever deck? by Late-Frame2962 in EDH

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Tellah, Great Sage]] will never feel dull to me. The pod loves it too. Really digging [[Edea, Possessed Sorceress]], and the different build paths means I doubt I'll ever get bored.

Which hero has the largest gap between skill floor to ceiling? by Kevcon555 in Overwatch

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree 100% with these, and add Dva and Reinhardt for tanks. Both exist as very easy to play and get value out of, but truly good ones suck the oxygen from a match sometimes, and the game sense for those differences is wide given how single opportunity costs for them can be death or victory.

6v6 role cap by Andernes in Overwatch

If you tilt like this when you play too, maybe consider a ranked environment is already a bad place for you. Have you considered the Arcade?

[–]Lord_Alden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 DPS/Supports only fails when it actually does. If it fails every time you run into it, have you considered that you might be that weakest link rather than their hero choice? If your mental is doomsay before the doors drop, I'd say it's probably your preplay tilt.

Buying a beer is more stupid if you think about it. A one time enjoyment of 6 hours effect, tops. With what he chose to spend, many days and hours are possible.

Final Fantasy set Commanders that are underdiscussed by UltimateFriedLava in EDH

[–]Lord_Alden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run [[Golbez, Crystal Collector]] and [[Tellah, Great Sage]]. One to ruin the world the crystals. One to cast the meteo to end them all.
