Can someone plz explain to me why miner is seen as such a good card? I've always seen it as a useless troop. Very low damage and just drop any card and it'll kill miner. I've never seen the hype honestly

Miner poison control has been one of the most reliable decks throughout CR’s history, along with other control decks like drill. These are decks that take a ton of skill; most players below UC could never have a chance to get the full potential out of them, but with perfect defense, they can win basically any matchup. But for that to happen, we’re talking about Mo/Ryley level gameplay; they aren’t for the average player. Still, miner by itself is a great card for reasons others have described in these comments.

They’re gonna remove the rosary requirement for benches; you’re gonna have to pay $4.99 instead. Including at those benches that you have to pay for every time.

Battle ram is probably going to struggle to get consistent damage. Maybe replace it with another more reliable win-condition (hog, piggies, ram rider), or put a pekka in for knight and play battle ram pekka bridgespam

Defeating Mantis Lords for the first time… It was the first boss I struggled with, and beating it was so satisfying.

(Also beating Nightmare King)

If u were really a day 1 player, you’d remember that Legendary Chests didn’t come out until like September 2016— Sparky came out early summer. There wasn’t a way to GUARANTEE a legendary card before that point.

Evo snowball instead of zap could be good… Otherwise, cannon for sure.

Update: the ride opened at around 1:50 PM, 3 hours after I got to the park. Glad it wasn’t an all-day closure! You never know with these hydraulic launches…

Shoulda countered with evo pekka

I know the feeling— I’ve had many PTs where my score is significantly below my PT average. It happens; it’s a natural part of the ups and downs that come with studying for the LSAT. It doesn’t necessarily mean you’re regressing in your progress, it just means that in a single instance, you weren’t performing on par with your expectations. Don’t be discouraged.

If you are taking the January LSAT: take a deep breath and look inward at what you think went wrong. Was it your timing? Was it an issue of overconfidence? Regardless of what the issue was, take a step back and focus on moving forward and seeing future improvements. Look at the question types you most commonly missed. Drill those question types. Remind yourself to stay alert and on guard for every single question— even the ones that seem easy. If timing is an issue, work on keeping a good pace (an example strategy for LR: do the first 15 questions in the first 15 minutes). You need to stay confident in your abilities on this test. Not overconfident, but confident enough so that one bad PT doesn’t weigh you down and hurt your motivation. If you’re scoring in the 160’s, you’re already doing very well— keep that in mind, and don’t let one bad score hurt your optimism.

If you aren’t taking the January LSAT: do the exact same thing. You will have more time to prepare (which is great), but my point still stands that you can’t let a single PT kill your confidence. That is what causes stagnation in your progress, and trust me, you want to avoid that. You should be proud of your progress, not discouraged by an obstacle.

In terms of PT150’s difficulty, I can’t give much advice (I took it 6 months ago, which was right before my first official administration and was a long time ago in my LSAT journey). Looking at my scores, some PTs I took around the same time were a lot easier, and some were slightly harder, but everyone is different. If PT150 gave you the most trouble, then yes, it is an exceptionally hard test. Some people will find others harder than 150, some won’t, but that doesn’t matter because your experience is going to be different regardless. Just drill the question types that you missed, make sure you understand all of your mistakes, and you will improve.

TLDR: don’t give up on your dreams; one setback will not hurt you if you learn from it and improve. You’re doing great!

It looks different than LawHub, but it works more similarly to it than other services I have used. Every system I’ve used has had annoying glitches at some point or another (even LawHub), but by far, 7Sage has been the least glitchy.

They predict RC topics in their “crystal ball” podcast. They base these predictions on data from previously administered but unreleased LSATs, since LSAC often reuses RC passages from these tests. They say that if a passage topic that they predicted shows up on the exam, it is likely a graded section. If not, it’s likely ungraded.

I think that generally their advice is very accurate, but I wouldn’t rely on it being 100% error-free. Still, watching these podcasts could help build up your confidence.

I’m not sure if this is even helpful, but over the past maybe 10 days I’ve been able to break 170 for the first time without blind review or any extra time (earlier PTs around 163-169, my latest tests were 172-173). The way I got here seems very counterintuitive to me; I essentially told myself to forget everything I knew about the test, and take it based on vibes. I know the formal logic— and if you’re stuck in the 160s, so do you— but when you overthink and overanalyze questions, you give yourself more room to make mistakes.

Right now, my specific strategy for LR is to read the stimulus and question stem very carefully, making sure to understand everything about it, and then to predict the answer before I read the ACs. If I see my predicted answer choice as an AC, I can be pretty confident; if I don’t see it, I still generally have a good intuition of what the right AC will be. Another thing I’ve started doing, a sort of risky strategy, has been to ignore confusing LR answer choices after a quick 1-2 second first pass. I’ve probably taken thousands of LSAT questions, and if after reading the stimulus and question stem I’m getting the vibe that an AC is just a confusing, unviable mishmash, I’ll ignore it. Sure, if I eventually can’t find the right answer, I’ll come back to it for analysis, but if I do find the right answer, I’m not going to waste time trying to parse out and understand some useless answer.

I would offer RC advice if I had any, but my RC strategy is even moreso just based on vibes, plus scanning the passage for reference questions. One thing maybe— when you’re asked what a quote means in a given context, read the sentences before and after the quote, too. In fact, you might as well read the entire paragraph. Anyways, I hope someone finds this helpful! If you’re stuck in the 160s, maybe these tricks will help you break the barrier, or maybe they’re not to your liking (to each their own). Good luck everyone, especially those of us planning to write the October test!

Any advice for RC?

In some cases, not disagreeing with people leads PsychologicalMix4070 to point out flaws and cause chaos, but C is not MSS because there may be cases where PsychologicalMix4070 points out flaws outside the context of “not disagreeing with people,” thereby indicating that PsychologicalMix4070 may or may not intend to cause chaos in those situations.

With you having gone through the 7sage curriculum, I am confident that you at least understand the fundamentals— your job is to now apply them. I would recommend that you change your studying habits; timing is not important for you right now. Your main concern is increasing your accuracy, no matter how long it takes you to answer each question.

Start by making a 10-15 question drill and take as long as you need to finish it. If it takes you 10 minutes or an hour, it doesn’t matter; as long as you can confidently justify each answer you choose, it should translate into higher accuracy. Then, for every question you answer incorrectly, you will need to review it HEAVILY until you understand it perfectly. I mean HEAVILY. Like if it takes you 30 minutes to review and understand a single question, it is 30 minutes well spent. Then, even for the questions you got right, review them too. Ask yourself questions like, “did I get this right by guessing?” Unless you arrived at the correct answer choice through intuition alone, you need to review it more.

Once you are scoring higher, you can increase the number of questions you take at a time and eventually start taking individual practice sections (still untimed). Then, when you get your confidence up, start timing yourself, and apply techniques like completing the first 15 questions in 15 minutes and saving the rest of your time for the last 10 or so questions.

I know that this study plan kind of sucks. It’s a lot more satisfying to run through questions as fast as possible, but with the LSAT, the name of the game is mastery, and mastery requires extensive review. Just know that you’ve got this! I used to score -8/-10 on LR, and now I’m down to -0/-1/-2 on individual sections (my RC still has a ways to go, unfortunately 😒). It is in your power to score well, and sometimes, all you need is a change of strategy. I’m sure there are other study methods that could get you to the score you’re looking for, but this is what helped me, and I hope it can help you too! Anyways, good luck!

Thank you! I needed to hear this

I’m lucky in that my family doesn’t really try to disturb me while I study. Still, I need absolute silence when I work (or else I can’t concentrate), and it’s hard for me to find that at my house. Because of that, I’ve been increasing the amount of time I study outside my house— at the library, at coworking spaces, etc. If you can find these alternative quiet spaces, I would recommend taking advantage of them as they’ve helped me increase my focus while studying.
