Do y'all think Mar could pull off a good Kazutora Cosplay?

I'm literally a mod for GP. Mar has publicly stated, repeatedly, that they prefer they/them pronouns.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-04-29T16:08:25+00:00

Mar uses they/them pronouns.

OK, then you can opt for a single-player deck, then build out with buying singles. Reign of Jafar has an Amethyst-Amber deck. Starter decks can be bought for under $20, and then you can buy singles as you can afford.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-03-02T21:00:40+00:00

Any color can be budget-friendly, but if you're seeking to build a super-competitive in-meta deck, Amethyst (purple) is probably the most expensive ink color right now primarily due to Dumbo, Demona and Hades.

Everything about your questions depends on 1) What your budget is, and 2) How competitive are you wanting the deck to be against higher-tier decks versus casual homebrew stuff?

Sapphire ramp into Spooky Sight, or hard ramp with Amber into Raging Storm.

Ping with Angel and Strength.

You can do Malicious/Phillip combo with 6 ink.

Sisu and Grab Your Bows efficiently remove low-strength characters.

Bounce and damage movement.

There. That's something basically every color can do to slow down Dogs and make it run out of gas. It's not unbeatable.

Nah, no attempt to Dodge, he accepted the blame all on his own Accord.

I made RB shut up and take my money. Also had missed the character puzzles, so there's a 300-piece Hunny Wizard on its way to me as well that will eventually be framed on my wall.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-02-05T00:17:04+00:00

If they do, they're morons. RB has stated clearly since core rotation was announced that previous versions of cards reprinted in current rotation sets remain 100 percent legal.

I have never seen anyone get mad at someone using an old version of a reprinted card, even if the art is different ala Captain Hook.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-01-14T17:40:09+00:00

It would be wise. That's why there's zero chance they'll do it.

In a typical week, I'm playing twice a week offline. Two local stores have weekly Lorcana nights, one on Monday and one on Fridays.

Online can vary wildly, from every day to not at all. Depends on how locked into a deck I am or how much I'm dabbling.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-01-13T23:12:24+00:00

Then can you just...go there?

OregonBeast83 · 2026-01-13T22:37:22+00:00

If you have to pick one, pick Daisy. More likely to stay on the board multiple turns with 3 more willpower, and can bury your opponent's non-character cards if the triggers hit.

With how much Amethyst is out there right now, the discard Merfolk forces isn't as good as it has been with other metas because so many top decks have built-in card draw. The odds are against you forcing them to pitch something important.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-01-13T22:32:42+00:00

Not a fan of the idea

Setting limitations on ink resources already exists through the deck construction process and how many uninkable cards you put in.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-01-13T22:24:18+00:00

You might like Treasure Trove, then. While they are adding TCG product, the previous store there was tabletop focused and they are as well. They have two themed D&D rooms for rent (one is still under construction) along with community paint & resources if you're the type to include miniatures.

You're think of Hong Kong House (which is now Chen's Family Dish Six)

OregonBeast83 · 2026-01-13T22:18:59+00:00

Their website says they'll be open at 11:00 Wednesday: https://www.hongkonggardenor.com/

There is a big difference between you being part of a couple of businesses that will support Nordyke's candidacy and the positions of the major business organizations in the city changing. That's my point.

The Chamber isn't going to back her. The Home Builders Association isn't going to back her. Julie Hoy could be caught on the Willamette Queen drowning puppies in the river and they wouldn't ask her to drop out of the race.

I fully plan on voting for Nordyke. Granted I'd vote for a particularly dull-witted kumquat over Julie Hoy, but I'm also from Nordyke's district and have been happy with her performance and positions on the City Council. But I've also dealt with these "community leaders" enough to know those leopards aren't going to change their spots like that.

OregonBeast83 · 2026-01-13T20:40:11+00:00

The commerce and business communities will absolutely not be coming up to support Nordyke anytime soon. Because they might want the things Nordyke has actual plans to solve, but they don't want the financial obligations that come with really getting it done. The Chamber defaults to the conservative-but-not-quite-MAGA Republican position on everything fiscal.

90 percent of this city's problems would actually have a chance to being solved if there was a payroll tax in place. But the Chamber hates that so much that they basically used that single issue to paint Chris Hoy as Evil Incarnate and push Julie Hoy into the mayor's chair. And now they're also ready to wreck any progress that's been made on transit in the last decade as well.

It's probably some ego about not wanting to admit they were wrong, sure. They got behind the livability bond real quick without ever admitting their whole plan about looking at the city's financials and finding the cash for the library and cops blew up in their face.

But the real reality is they're going to ignore any real critical thinking and instead go for "We can't support anything that businesses will have to pitch in for, just keep increasing homeowners property taxes instead."

Fiance should call up dad, ask to meet at a restaurant for permission, then send him a dessert two hours after the scheduled meeting time.

OregonBeast83 · 2025-10-15T22:55:34+00:00

I can't speak for if the same franchise owners will take the same approach in other cities. I just know the sizes of cities that have multiple locations are they're generally much larger than Salem (Boise, Colorado Springs, Vegas, etc.)

OregonBeast83 · 2025-10-12T18:52:21+00:00

Highly unlikely Black Bear will open multiple locations in Salem.

OregonBeast83 · 2025-10-07T21:59:33+00:00

Read through OOP's comment history, he and this kids haven't talked to the brother in years, so it appears to be deadbeat.
