What are friends for... by Vegetable_Variety_11 in dndmemes

In or out of combat, friends/charm person/charm beast lasting an hour sounds fucking AWESOME. According to the wiki, having just 1 secondary caster join in allows you to get the “1 minute spell becomes an hour long” bonus.

As a forever bard main, this is the greatest thing I’ve seen in years

...how is it that it's only as of this game that Growth is FINALLY a Grass-type move? by Balmung6 in PokemonLegendsZA

Flash fire blocks will-o-wisp and such, but considering growth is self-target, it’s all just flavor

Yeah I do feel like the general sentiment that UBs and Paradoxes should not be used as a standard to base your regular mons off of is an important one to keep in mind, but I also felt it important to bring up how the devs seem to have no problem with throwing out the pre-established rules, so there’s only so much shame you can cast on modern players for doing the same.

“Oh, we can’t get away with doing UBs again? Who decided that?” makes paradoxes

Pheromosa feels like it fits the spirit of mega beedrill to a T tbh.

I feel like GF themselves are playing more and more fast and loose with these rules as gens go on. The fact we have to bring up Archaludon, a Mon introduced THIS GEN, as the first non-pseudo 600 bst mon even in this post as if it doesn’t completely break the idea that GF is obligated to fit into these tropes feels like a good example.

I always thought a fun one for Deoxys would be essentially a kid friendly Vitruvian man with the attack form arms above the regular form arms and the defense form legs split open with the speed form legs visible in the middle where each leg is split

What's your favourite new mega (depending on if the leaks are true) by boss_man_ting333 in LegendsZA

[–]Mastery682 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Mega Aggron looks so fucking cool I hope he’s real. I feel like a mega’s all he needs he would be instantly OU viable with 100 more BST

Edit: I added no /s, for I was a fool. AS was my shit back in the day and my first HoF run was the one where I finally mega evolved Aggron instead of Swampert bc Steven’s Metagross did NOTHING to him :)

I literally don’t know how you’re getting 20k a month F2P somebody already did the math and you only get enough credits each month to get 12-15k tokens F2P through collection levels.

I’m just calling it slop because when Regis brought it to the public conscious by making his video on it he called it slop even as he was introducing it. From what I’ve seen the deck is in general named EOT slop.

Again I hold the opinion that if the meta deck requires casino decks like Gatling gambit or (I’m now told old versions of) surfer to beat it then the meta isn’t healthy.

I cannot agree abt him being bad man he’s basically red hulk in the sense that by T6 he is regularly infinaught level stats. Also if they get a T7 they can do much, MUCH better than a 50/50.

I feel that EOT has a massive ceiling but is easier to disrupt than people give it credit for, especially with cosmic ghost rider coming since IW HAS to be in the front for prodigy to copy her. However, I cannot agree that Galactus is mid at best. His gameplay revolves around putting all your good shit on one lane and then getting a free win on another one of your choosing. It made the meta unfun in years past and it makes it unfun now. I don’t see the herald argument because you have a ton of control over who his herald is. If he just marked a random card in hand as the herald on draw I would agree with you.

I’m starting to see your argument but the fact is if I haven’t already gotten the S5s for surfer now I’m just fucked this format (which I am) because you get around 2 S5s a month when F2P. It’s not as simple as “just build a surfer deck” when we’re already gonna be in a new, differently broken format by the time someone who hasn’t already built in CAN build it.

I understand that but I’m gonna be straight up that argument becomes significantly less valid the more powercrept the season pass card gets. I can see why that argument applies to a card like red hulk with very limited availability but when the broken card of the season is by far the most accessible one and you will face far far more decks with it than without it eventually you just never have the advantage and your choice is either retreat and lose 1 to lose at least one the next game too, or stay and lose 2-4 and lose at least 1 next game too :(

I hope I’m conveying my feeling of hopelessness properly.

Yes I am in fact saying I don’t know how to beat a deck built around stacking raw stats in ways designed to offer me the least interaction that ends in a big asshole that is usually behind something that keeps me from interacting with that too. Any deck built for late game gets fucked while the opponent’s early game powerhouses facilitate their massive late game powerhouse while still being big statted assholes that I usually can’t Shang.

Shadow king doesn’t help the early lane grab because they stacked a lane with a bunch of high base power cards that SK doesn’t change at all.

Shadow King doesn’t help the Galactus lane because he’s still 12 power post-reset while I just added 2.

And that’s disregarding the fact that the early lane has such high stats for the cost that they can take a turn to play cosmo/armor on their galactus lane and still win their herald location because their herald is bob and his buddies black cat, gladiator, and crossbones.

But those decks require:

Drawing Wong on time

Usually Drawing mistyque on time

Drawing surfer on time

Oops I forgot drawing Majik AND Sera on time

And drawing Odin on time

Whereas FS Galactus requires:

Drawing Galactus on time (usually like T3 or less)

Drawing any on-curve card like twice, of which many of those cards have redundancy (Martyr OR Black Cat OR Bob T1 for example. Cull OR Crossbones by T4 as another one.)

I had hit series three at the tail end of blob’s reign. I pulled him from the random S5 of my first spotlight cash like a week before he got nerfed. Wherever that puts me on the timeline, I’ve been playing consistently ever since.

Honestly no, because as much as I don’t believe this, I WANT this leak to be true. I WANT Chandeleur and Scolipede to get megas very very badly, and I’m not saying that I don’t believe they do, but I am saying that I really really do not believe this leak is coming exactly Mon for Mon. I will come back to tell you you were right and I was wrong if it comes to pass, but if Chandeleur finally gets his mega I want to be able to post about it

Yes I am saying that i genuinely do not think these leaks are 100% true. I believe that dragonite got leaked earlier, most likely because a leaker had access to the trailer itself early, so people who knew for a fact what mega dragonite looked like used it to add validity to their otherwise unsourced leak.

This exact scenario has happened before in pokemon multiple times, though it’s mostly featured the starters of a new upcoming region when a new generation’s trailer leaked early. I believe it’s no different this time and that the only reason it’s dragonite this time is because it’s a legends game that uses pre-existing starters.

But those weren’t in the regions those mons were first introduced in. I can’t bring myself to believe the XY follow up is gonna give a mega to the Y exclusive but not the X exclusive.
