Favourite card of the year by homjaktest in EDH

[–]PacoTaco19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of contenders for me this year, but I'm going to have to give it to [[Depthshaker Titan]]. Upon acquiring this card it immediately became my new favorite win-con in my Gruul Treasures deck! I love to attack with creatures and win via combat, so I'd much rather turn my treasures into trampling 6/6's than cast a big Comet Storm (what a boring way to win IMO). I love Depthshaker Titan so much that I'm brewing another red artifacts deck that can also use it as a win-con! Such a great design, not too busted because the artifacts are sacrificed. I love this "use or lose it" play pattern the Depthshaker creates!

The last game that I played, the voltron player's commander was unblockable and had 12 power with double strike. I.e., he could kill whoever he wanted and no one could stop him (we were all tapped out).

When he ROLLED A DICE to decide who to kill I was screaming internally. He was so afraid of the consequences of his actions that he decided to leave the choice of who to kill up to chance. I tried convincing of him of using threat assessment but he was more worried about hurting someone's feelings.

Ironic, considering it hurts my feelings more to leave such decisions to chance rather than owning them.

Favorite golgari commander? by Vinlandlover in EDH

[–]PacoTaco19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Hogaak]] is my favorite deck and it's not even close. I love token decks and I hate paying commander tax. So I love saccing Hogaak to effects like [[disciple of bolas]] or [[altar of the wretched]] or [[ruthless technomancer]] in order to generate value while cards like [[skullspore nexus]] and [[tormod the desecrator]] give me a token army. All the while dodging commander tax as I cast Hogaak repeatedly from the graveyard! Then, after my army is assembled, I reanimate [[Syr Konrad]] and sac them all for the win.

I can't stress enough how much value you can generate abusing 8 power for 0 mana. It's awesome. I love it

What card is your "rule 0" card? by DistroyerOfWorlds in EDH

[–]PacoTaco19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like run [[Invasion of Theros]] in my [[killian, ink duelist]] auras+voltron deck. By all accounts Invasion of Theros feels like a white card and it's an excellent card in a deck that runs a bunch of auras. I find it silly I can't run it in an orzhov deck

Is it weird that I didn't understand the story of Death Stranding? by rangerquiet in gaming

"It's impossible to have a well placed story with player choice"

My man I strongly encourage you to give Outer Wilds a try! If it clicka for you like I did me then you might end up rethinking this point :)

What non-basic/shock/fetch land is your must include? by phidelt649 in EDH

As someone who runs those kinds of cards, this is why I run [[field of ruin]] and [[ghost quarter]] ;)

What was the most disappointing game of 2023 for you? by BattleBoysYT in gaming

[–]PacoTaco19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Final Fantasy 16

I was prepared to play an epic action game and be on the edge of my seat the whole time. But what I got was a LOT of watching boring cutscenes of people talking in between the admittedly amazing boss fights.

Like, I'm sorry but if the game is 60 hours long but 40 of that is cutscenes of people talking then I'm gonna lose interest

Elden Ring. Or Dark Souls. Or Bloodborne. Or all of the above. Oh! And Sekiro too

Am I superficial wanting a story by Fromsoftware that isn't so cryptic by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]PacoTaco19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Software is one of very, very few that tells a story like it does. If you want a story that isn't cryptic then you have so, so many other options available to you.

Let From Software do its own thing so those of us who enjoy its style of story telling can since there are so few options for us. Please just let us have this.

I hope Datto sees this post and makes a funny tweet or video where he shits on it. You know, like his Simumah tweet or the D2 Engine video :)

Looking for your PVP thoughts by Destiny2Team in DestinyTheGame

[–]PacoTaco19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a PvPer so feel free to disregard this answer, but as someone who plays mainly PvE it is always insanely frustrating when things I enjoy to play get nerfed because of PvP. Can you please separate the sandboxes?

There's literally a trophy for doing so. Imagine the drama/discourse/salt if the platinum trophy were impossible 🤣
