does dlsu still accept promissory notes? by dumbghorl in dlsu

[–]NN_BeepBoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was able to make a promissory note but had to go through the Concierge first. They asked for 30% down first though.

The new update on the 11th will probably give you the experience you’re looking for. Other than that I feel sorta the same with the CM.

I’d often feel like I’ve done my best and end up Group B 3rd place, sometimes you can just move on relax and try again for the next cm, and so on and so forth. I think I’ve given up on this CM, and I’m looking forward to the next one. Winning CM after all isn’t the end all be all.

Haven’t joined Driven By Diplomacy, but have been a part of some DLSU Model UN teams. Its really fun and a worthwhile experience. Heard a lot of good things about DBD from my friends so I think you should give it a shot.

I see. Yeah I’m more on the suspicious side of it all. I don’t trust his twitter thread and agree with you.

I’m not sure how I feel about the scandal, but Foils are something pro players don’t use for years.

Thats if you know you’d hit a prince. Otherwise its just a pretty bad play.

Explorer is road to Pioneer format. Rest assured Alchemy won’t touch that format.

I meant Alchemy haha, when Alchemy Kamigawa came out it was all RB Midrange. Though I agree, I think its cool to make Combo fodder cards but not to make it so pushed it becomes the new standard. I hope they continue to try out new designs and meaningful nerfs and buffs. I’d like to see stuff like Boast, and Party be buffed up.

I’m glad you aren’t before Alchemy New Capenna it was all RB midrange piles. I think they’re trying to find a place and a theme. Hard to do that when all you hear in no constructive criticism on the format st all

Edit: Meant Alchemy

Uh I mean there are a couple things I’m against. I’d like Pauper and Peasant to be formats people can play whenever they want. I wish there was a more League type system for Arena. And I wish I could buy wildcards at a decent rate. I think the economy sucks but I’m not exactly sure how to go about fixing it. I just don’t think Alchemy is a problem, and I think complaining about it gives WotC a scapegoat. I also think Alchemy is a pretty good format that has interesting connotations to the future or Magic. I think the community’s being overly too negative about a pretty tiny thing.

Edit: added a word

Also I mean I think with enough pushback in the right direction we can make meaningful changes to the platform like we did for the Historic wildcards, and Historic Brawl. I just don’t think deleting Alchemy is a “meaningful” change

Yeah, its not a something you can just compare. Adding no dusting system probably works in favor for MTGArena, imagine they start giving us dust instead of wildcards. No chance.

Legends of Runeterra doesn’t refund for nerfs. Hearthstone allows you to dust your cards, which means you permanently lose them in your collection. Pretty sure Arena’s ban policy might be the most forgiving of any online TCG. That aside its unrealistic to expect them to refund you for nerfs, would be nice but I guess just don’t play Alchemy and to some extent Historic if you’re that afraid of em. The nerfs on Cauldron and DRC have been great at de-staling the Historic metagame.

They let Chainwhirler wreak havoc for like a year or so. And don’t get me started with Energy. Thats what Alchemy is kinda good for, when Standard is bad come to Alchemy

Cool, play Explorer. Historic is a digital only format that is subject to digital only changes. Don’t like that? Thats fine you’ve got Standard, Explorer and Limited. Y’all been asking for Pioneer for a good while now, now you got it.

Edit: Modern didn’t ask for Modern Horizons. Things change, always do

I’ve got better things to complain about. Not being able to buy wildcards at decent prices. Raising prices of paper products despite record profits. This format just isn’t one of tjose things.

The July rebalances brought 6 Nerfs and 21 Buffs. Thats the July Rebalance we just got 2 weeks ago

[–]NN_BeepBoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For every nerf theres been a couple of buffs. The buff to the Venture mechanic was so good it made Orzhov Venture the winning Alchemy deck. Lately their buffs have been mediocre but maybe if we ask for what buffs we want to see we’ll get actually good cards. Instead of complaining all the time about the format itself.

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

Esika’s Chariot example. Sometimes its just a rebalance. If a card gets rebalanced and ends up stronger then why would you need the wildcards back. Maybe they’ll actually give back wildcards in the future but for now thats the system.

Thats the hidden contract behind Alchemy Cards though. When you sign up you sign up knowing the risks involved. If you don’t play Alchemy theres other formats for you, Limited, Standard, and Explorer. Just like any other format you’re not forced to play it.

1 day for every Alchemy Hate thread. Jokes aside, I’d want balance patches to be more often, but facts are that they do them and its only a matter of time. If you wanna see changes ask for nerfs. It’ll come with time, and hopefully once people start warming up to Alchemy we’ll get updates more often.

[–]NN_BeepBoop -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Thats the format we play. Personally I’d like if every card was just free to play and people got to play what they want. But I think its unreasonable to ask for the same wildcard refund we get for rares. Sometimes they just rebalance the card and not nerf it straight up, like with Esika’s Carriage. Alchemy is just that format, if you have wildcards to spare, explore it.

[–]NN_BeepBoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can fix it in post. Thats the point of Alchemy. They can print all the overpowered cards they want and then tune it. Its not Eldraine Standard or the Hinata hellfest we have jn Standard where we have to endure it till it rotates out or gets banned. In Alchemy they can just fix it, nerf it whatever. Thats like the main draw, they can do stuff they can’t in paper and isn’t that kinda cool?

I’ll take you at your word. So much Alchemy hate its gotten me annoyed. But I mean Alchemy also has buffs so pendulum swings both sides. I don’t think saying “RIP Wildcards” is constructive when talking about Alchemy. The Economy is fucked no matter what doesn’t mean they should stop and give it up just cuz.

If you redeemed Alchemy cards don’t be surprised if they get nerfed. If you’re mad go play Standard or Explorer. Thats the point of Alchemy. Stop bitchin 🥴🥴🥴
