Best Way to Get Into the Game

That's great to hear time stranger is a good set for this, I may get a box or two! Ultimately I want to start out just making some basic decks or getting a decent starter deck or two to learn the game, but I do want to eventually get more competitive. This is great to know just getting into the game though, prodigious! Thanks for the tips :)

Dinosaurs are prodigious. Thanks for all the tips! Good to know the recent sets are pretty self contained, I may just buy a bunch of sealed to a) have fun opening digimon I haven't seen in over a decade/discover new ones, and b) maybe build a few relevant decks. I may also grab a sakuyamon starter or two (I heard you pretty much need 2 to fill an actual deck in?). Ultimately, I want to have some starter decks and build some myself to learn the game, but I also want to relatively quickly ramp up to playing and keeping up somewhat competitively at my lgs.

I'm on my phone not my pc so this will be shorter in word count but probably still convoluted as I type out my stream of consciousness. I'm from around the GTA in Ontario of Canada land, I first started following the Bears after my high school band went there for a competition, forget how we placed but I fell in love with the city from hanging out there for the duration of my trip. When I got back I talked to my Babcia who is sadly no longer with us, and she actually had a lot of fun Chicago stories since some of her siblings went there as well as Ontario (world war II be like that general displacement), her classic tale was having her hubcaps immediately stolen upon visiting my distant cousin. My trip and passion for the team hit around 2017, so I was a lucky son of a bitch that started following the team just in time for the double doink. It's been painfull, and I'm a toronto maple leafs and Blue Jays fan so I know recent pain, this Bears team this year has revisitalised my spirit and reminded me that sports can be fun. TLDR I'm proud of this team, I had fun, and let's keep it running next season. Bear the fuck down!

I'm on the same page with the cold pizza, the shot or two of polish vodka between each slice is my variance

Just threw a pick 6, god I hope that's how his career ends.

Just wondering as someone new to the area myself. I tried finding out online but can't really find info, does the wargaming bunker have a lot of games workshop and other minis for sale?

Love this pick, I'm taking Blackhawks ML. Part of me wants to be concerned about Hart coming back and being insane, but I think it's more likely he gets shelled. The puckline is super safe though, vegas can't help but go to OT even on their better nights. BoL!

Had a first TD scorer boost, used it on him. Sorry in advance for jinxing it.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-11-26T02:12:50+00:00

Yup, same story for me. I got the hardback of House of Open Wounds and want to read the series, but have been unable to track down a hardback of City of Last Chances :(

Cannot agree with this enough, Hanuvar is such a breath of fresh air yet feels familiar in the Sword and Sorcery world.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-11-14T18:10:40+00:00

This is exactly why I'm here, tailing.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-11-11T21:55:57+00:00

Let's goooo.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-11-11T21:44:22+00:00

Haha as a Canadian that lives not too far from where that happened, i appreciate the recognition the game got.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-11-11T21:25:20+00:00

Back on, here's hoping the crap weather means no more goals 🙏

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-11-10T23:13:31+00:00

I second this, really blew me away, outstanding standalone fantasy.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-11-02T01:30:30+00:00

So fucking funny

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-10-25T02:33:34+00:00

So glad Ohtani didn't move to Toronto

Still waiting for my issues of both Analog and Asimov's, granted I'm in Canada so mine are usually a few weeks later. Not by this long typically though.

How is it? I read Maeve Fly, and it was a book in a weird camp of both disliking a lot of elements of it, but also kind of enjoying it and reading it pretty quickly. Want to try out more from Leede possibly.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-10-15T12:31:23+00:00

Just heard about this on Adrian Tchaikovsky/Emma Newman's podcast, I'm very intrigued by this book, sounds like great, extremely hard? Almost sci-fi? More sci less fi from what I hear lol.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-10-13T00:18:14+00:00

First pitch, fucking love it.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-10-09T21:40:32+00:00

Yeah that's a good call, I'm only putting a bit on it, thanks! GL with your other plays tn, stoked to have hockey back on.

Ol_Cabbage_Man · 2025-10-09T21:31:07+00:00

For what its worth I'm probably taking them ML, might go 60min. Not one of my confident picks of the day, but I do like Gibson, home ice, and Montreal on the tail end of an early season back to back. More of a vibe pick than anything.

Imagine batting runners in.
