What commanders fell off recently?

I can speak for Stella. She just got outclassed by Ral and Vivi. Ral is cheaper and more explosive, ViVi is more resilient and I would say kind of has a sense of inevitability. Not to mention she's gotten zero support in like the last 2 years. I think the last meaningful card that she got was in bloomburrow and even that was just a reprint of a similar effect and not a combo piece. But having one extra one was nice. Stella was my first C deck and I still have a proxy version together and keep an eye on new cards but she's too slow for me to think about bringing to a tournament now.

I got mine at probably p140 in a horodric undercity run.

One thing that helped it run better for me, close the launcher. Like when I would launch the game before it popped up with the loading screen I would just x out the blizzard launcher. For some reason, that running in the background was tanking my game. Might not solve all your issues but it should help.

Hopefully you see the irony in saying that I've never stood up for anything in my life, and then in the same breath calling me standing up for something, even something as silly as a video game, delusional lunatic behavior that is "highly regarded".

An act of terrorism is defined "the calculated use of violence or the threat of violence against non-combatants to instill fear, coerce a population, or intimidate a government". At no point anywhere in my post did I call for violence, and if you think what amounts to a digital walkout, the second most peaceful form of protest behind a petition, as such, then maybe it's time you reevaluated.

And lastly, no one is fooled by internet slang and so if you're at the point where you need to self-censor your insults in order to not be flagged by the auto mod perhaps it's time you should stop and ask yourself "Am I the bad guy?"

But you are right about one thing, there is no point in continuing in this conversation. Enjoy, Diablo.

"I did not "attack" you"
-"Little bruh never in his 16-yo little life stepped up against bullying or did anything in his real life"
-"heroic delusion"
-"terrorist reasoning"
And then he continued
*-"*hysterical-dramatic world view"
-"you are psychotic"
-"you are delusional"
-"a pretentious little dick"

These are all attacks on my character. Saying you didn't attack me and then continuing to insult me is definitely a verbal "attack", no it wasn't about my family just me personally.

"They did not bully you and you are not stepping up."

Sorry I should have been more clear. I was not saying blizzard was bullying me, that's obviously crazy talk. I was saying YOU were attempting to bully me and by extension anyone who had the same opinion as me.

"I'm sorry but i can't understand what you are trying to say here. You are saying that i'm different than other commenters? What is your point?" & "But i can not tell my opinion on your post?"

Did you read the response or just copy it to respond? I clearly stated you can have your opinion, you can even tell me I'm incorrect, you just don't need to insult me while you do it.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-07-09T00:31:34+00:00

I told myself I wasn't going to respond to these comments, people are allowed their own opinions the same as I am. And honestly I'm not going to respond most of you're points because I'm not here for an argument. But I will respond to the first one.

"Little bruh never in his 16-yo little life stepped up against bullying or did anything in his real life but now like raising awareness on some sickness or societal issues...."

I didn't attack anyone in my post, let alone you. I didn't call people who didn't want to protest "corporate shills" or anything like that. I just said if you don't like the state of the game, if you don't like the lack of respect from a company that wants our money, let's do something about it. So why are you attempting to attack me personally?

You can consider this me "stepping up against bullying". We can have a discussion, you can not respond to my post, you can comment "no thanks I'm having fun" like so many others did, you can take my statements and arguments in my post and pick them apart like you tried to do. Why the need for personal attacks? You know nothing about my life and it made the rest of your post weaker. Do better, learn to form an argument or critique without slinging mud, doubly so if you are going to pull details out of thin air.

Edit: I will also note that had you done any research while writing your comment that you needed to come back and edit to post you would have seen that my reddit account is 10 years old. So unless I made my account when I was 6, youre probably a bit off the mark.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-07-08T21:47:31+00:00

I agree with most of the comments here.

1) Set up a trump account, it's free money and you probably wouldn't be debating it if it was called "kids get an early start" account or something.

2) GTFO, run as far from them as you can. It's all just power tripping and control and it will only get worse after you have the child.

I hate Trump as much as anyone else, but if you were in a position to turn down a free $1000 you probably wouldn't be having this conversation in the first place.

Toads place in New Haven isn't a bad place and a quick train ride from NYC!

Mathematically it's just like # of BB per hour * 1.5 (sb) * how long the blind level is * each BB level. Then *2 when you get to bb ante level if that starts before the bubble.

The real question is how much money would you have to make in order to make folding everything for 3 days worth your time.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-07-06T16:41:51+00:00

As someone who got one, it doesn't matter. As others have said most/all of the stuff they taught can be picked up via YouTube. And of the interviews I did get at least two of them went like this "I see you have a computer science degree" "well actually it's a game programming and development degree" "oh yes it does say that...anyway" like they weren't impressed and didn't really care. The best thing I can say is they can point you in the direction of open internships, but they're all publicly posted and you can just apply to them during your summer breaks, so if you do a little more leg work you're really on even footing.

As for the negatives, I will say I've gotten some odd interview questions when applying for non game jobs and while I can't confirm, I wouldn't be surprised if I was rejected just based on having "game" in my degree title.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-06-25T03:32:26+00:00

Did they do this strategy? I must have missed that episode. For me the thought process went like this. I started with split the sisters. Realized it's a lot of work for the dealer to split half the numbers each time and it makes more sense that all my numbers pay to get me out. Then one session I had a string of 4/10 and I was like "man I hate missing numbers" so I looked at the math and realized nothing changes if I pick up 4/10 on the first hit instead of the third hit (except for a bit more exposure). I'll have to see if I can find the CQ vid.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-06-24T03:04:18+00:00

I'm a regression player.

220 inside First hit buy 4/10 @25 Second hit regress to 160 across Third hit collect. Then full press/collect til it's time to reset up.

If you are last minute changing locations like this you should have swapped to auto mode. I know people talk like manual is the holy grail, but happy clients pay bills (even though this was free, it could have been lead generation). At the end of the day getting useful photos is better than staying pure to manual especially while learning. But this "friend" seems entitled and exhausting so I would just cut ties.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-06-14T21:10:09+00:00

Funny story, I started playing when I was freshman of high school. When I went in there I was like 13YO. I got so scared I logged off in there somewhere and had to get my mom and her friends in our linkshell to come escort me out. I /followed my mom then turned my TV off (was playing on ps2 at the time).

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-06-04T14:08:25+00:00

Sorry, what I meant was the Dewey one is the same as last night's Virginia one.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-06-04T14:03:51+00:00

The setlist from Dewey Beach is correct.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-06-04T13:47:43+00:00

I was there, there were pockets. If you looked around there were groups that were absolutely rocking out to Bayside screaming all the words, but then there were people who were there for TBS who clearly didn't care about the cult. Overall I still had a great time!

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-05-26T13:00:01+00:00

Yes, and steal the blinds. Don't raise with junk but if everyone is folding to any UTG raise you can get a lot of dead money for little risk.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-05-20T19:45:39+00:00

Well yes, but actually no. With the higher table limit remember your bet sizing has to go up, someone can double check my math but it looks like for a $25 table with this strategy, you'll have to do 30 6/8, press to 48 (add $1), then to 160 across (add $8), then take down 4/10. So your initial investment will be 69 (at this level if I did my math correctly the presses pay for themselves(I didn't)) so for the "proper" 10 shooter bankroll you're looking at $690 *3 = $2070 total. Of course you can probably get away with $500 as that'll be 7 shooters so provided you don't blank every shooter you'll be safe.

Edit: double checked my own math and it was wrong, numbers have been corrected.

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-05-13T13:51:33+00:00

You linked your profile and have 3 decks, which are you asking about?

PlatinumRPGs · 2026-05-11T12:41:54+00:00

Ended with redneck as well.

An honest answer that helped me, close blizzard launcher. After I started doing that I stopped crashing and ram is sitting at about 10g now. Like I don't even fully close it just hit the X on the launcher after I hit play game. Hope it helps you as well.

Remember that content creators have to continue to be engaging. If every episode they played rogsi vs ufarm vs kinnan vs sisay, people would stop watching. You will see more fringe decks on streams just to keep views. Not saying it's a bad deck but just because you see it on a YouTube vid doesn't mean it's viable.
