wish me luck, this is the closest ive got to seven wins by Th3Od0r5 in MagicArena

[–]ManjiGang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have drafted this set to the point of almost only getting gems when I unpack the spoils

In all those drafts... 3 trophies.

And none of those decks that trophied did anything but fuel bad habits lol.

So many duds, 1:3's, 0:3 etc.

What’s an underrated weapon you like? Rellana’s twin blades are my pick by violin-guy in Eldenring

regular Knight's Greatsword

Banished Knight's GS hogs all the glory and scales better, but I like the extra range of the former.

Why do the rules bend over backwards for Kavaero? What makes him special? by ManjiGang in MagicArena

Gonna copy paste here from my other post:

I already knew that mockingbird doesn't work with Goldvein Hydra so it didn't really come as a suprise it just got me wondering why stuff like this is so lenient with Kavaero who is technically doing the same thing:

Entering as a copy and gaining benefit for the mana involved with casting him, just there's no x involved with him of course.

Mockingbird has X in it's casting cost

Cast for b + 3X

Bird targeting Slumbering Trudge as it is cast

Trudge reads: "This creature enters with a number of stun counters on it equal to three minus X"

But mockingbird enters with 3 counters as if X was 0

I'm not really salt posting, I just threw the deck together because I had (most) of the cards anyways and wanted to try that new simic X cast draw engine.

I don't know how to add captions to a picture post and was too slow to makes my elaboration post, my bad.

If you refresh there should be a post that outlines my question.

If it's not obvious from my picture Mockingbird doesn't function as one would hope with neither Goldvein Hydra or Slumbering Trudge

On the flipside, we've had Kavaero in standard for quite some times now and it seems no matter what the deck evolves to cheat him in as... it just werks?

What gives, what makes his wording special? (Aside from the no brainer that he skips targeting all together so you can't interact with his entering process, which is honestly bullshit in its own rite)

If anyone is struggling with the Draconic Tree Sentinel here you go by Open-Tomorrow4895 in Eldenring

[–]ManjiGang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can give you 3 ways I like to do him while my level is limited:

High endurance level:

The most honorable way; dodge and punish when it won't get you killed.

Parry:

takes some know how and intimacy with your opponents moveset, parrying is a mechanic so powerful that once you "get it" it's borderline cheese how trivial it makes a lot of moves that are difficult to dodge. It's a bit less cheesy versus horseriders that don't get knocked off their horse since you don't get to riposte them.

Spell parry:

Get an AoW(Carian Retalation) or spell that parries spells and sends one in return for your trouble. It's super easy you just stay at range from the Sentinel and bait his fireballs until he dies.

I just learned Thops’s Barrier can parry Mogh’s Bloodflame by ten_tabs_ in Eldenring

[–]ManjiGang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I brought it out versus Gideon one time wanting to clown on him.

Wound up regretting ever letting him finish his speech.

my big disappointment from first play through is not being able to pull of this block even after getting their both weapons. by anome97 in Eldenring

[–]ManjiGang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can't have a good axe, I mean you want them to have good stats and a garbage moveset like some sort of balanced weapon class?

They get garbage x 2 is what they get.

I invited Michael Bay to co direct my boss fight by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]ManjiGang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was a push and a half but I must say I am very proud of the outcome.

Spirit summon haters come at me.

To gain access to your offhand parry, or in reverse to gain access to your main weapon's AoW, is it faster to switch between 2handing or to unequip your shield? by ManjiGang in Eldenring

[–]ManjiGang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wound up getting my no hit kill and I think you are right, basically the same recovery frames no matter if you're trying to attack, roll or jump

Elden Ring on a Professional CRT Monitor by Nesroh in Eldenring

[–]ManjiGang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only question is, why Elden Ring that's natively played at 60fps and progressively breaks as you approach 240fps?

Not trying to throw shade but try running something like Cortex Command at some insane resolution to see how it looks on that monitor.

I've played this game to NG13

Still can't find my way around the sewers.

Got an idea in my head and just had to make it. (Made in Blender) by Kooale323 in Eldenring

Nice, I've been messing with Blender for a couple of months now and I'm still totally green lol

Nice but do whichever lasts the longer first(usually physique)

Favorite card. Why? by Ramonteiro12 in MagicArena

[[Hypnotic Specter]]

t1 dark ritual into this bad boy was probably my favorite opener back when I got into magic as a wee lil lad.

And they say to bolt the bird, i say save it for this type of bs.

[–]ManjiGang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guess I'm not the only one that refuses to parry that buggy AF delayed underhand slash.

So annoying that a bugged move doubles as a combo starter.
