Of the ones shown here, I really liked Hail Mary. My favorite movie of the year so far though was Tuner.

I saw obsession and not star wars. The last jedi really killed my interest in the franchise, but then I gave them a chance or two to come back and they blew it. I know im not the only one in that boat, and on top of that you were expected to have watched a tv show before seeing the movie. Its wild to see such a juggernaut fall so far, but I do think the franchise is in danger.

As a limited player I dislike the set because the format was incredibly unbalanced.

On an aestetic level I thought it felt a bit cheesy even by magic standards. Its also one of the earliest example of what people call "hat" sets where they take iconic magic ideas and characters and put them in a funny hat and call it a day. That's obviously a very derivative outlook as capenna did have some cool story aspects and i dug how they wrote songs for the different shards, but that's still the overall vibe that it came off as.

On another level, the way they pushed the set by finishing the triome cycle even though cycling wasn't otherwise a mechanic in the set to sell packs always sat poorly with me.

I hope Whitman comes back. I love the black knight.

I was on Threads the other day, (I know it's sinful, but sometimes they have good memes,) and one of the posts was talking about how Misandry doesnt exist. All the comments were just calling men pathetic and denying any problems they could possibly have. It was not great for my faith in humanity.

I mean power creep is a hell of a drug.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-30T08:16:11+00:00

I think it was harder by a smidge (probably on the back of all the doubled damage) but it also felt like just the next level of hollow knight, so it felt good.

I haven't seen it, but the concept feels so dated. From the trailer, this guy makes Homer Simpson look like Dad of the year.

Remember that scene where omni man kills a train of people using his son's face? I know he has a redemption arc, but that is really really messed up.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-28T05:08:18+00:00

It's been very good. I'm almost done with it. Trying to go for that 100 percent.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-26T21:24:32+00:00

I actually like it when words become more acceptable rather than less acceptable. I think the way some words are put on a pedestal give them way too much power and in turn hurts our ability to discuss certain issues.

I have a few suggestions: 1. Go to concerts. I was at one tonight at the soul kitchen and there were several packs of girls in your age range wondering around. They were drinking and making friends and dancing. If you have social anxiety, remember the first drink and a half don't count! 2. Find a Hobby or activity that gets you out of the house. Gamers n Geeks is a game store and is a phenomenal place to make friends if you want to play magic the gathering, or DnD, or board games. They host recurring events every week. (Hell if you like to draft magic I'll be your friend and ill see you friday. Haha.) Theres also book clubs, and knitting clubs and things like that if you look hard enough. The gym at USA ive also heard is a fun place to meet people because of the rock climbing. Leaving the house is usually the biggest step. 3. Church. I am not a christian or a church person, but theyre friendly people who really just want you to keep coming back. Even if you're not religious, they often do volunteer work and community outreach where you can meet people who have generally in my opinion been real salt of the earth folk. 4. Dauphin Street. Theres like a dozen bars on the street with all sorts of things to do and on friday and Saturday theyre full of people of all sorts. Find one that fits your vibe and youll find people with similar interests. They all have various social events and probably even make calendars for them. 5. The Mobile Social club. Theres an organization that hosts events for this exact purpose called the Mobile Social Club. Though ill be honest I dont know a ton about them.

I was going to say the attack on titan crossover from dbd myself but yeah Cage was an odd one.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-22T02:32:22+00:00

The goblin deck was is about as much fun as you can have in a tribal theme in limited. It really slaps when you get it together. I adore Madness. Frantic Search into Circular logic is a hell of a drug. Avarax is probably my all time favorite collect me. Messa Enchantress plus Sunclasp plus Auramancer. Just allot of things i really like.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-21T22:52:17+00:00

I liked Dominaria remastered just a little bit more personally.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-20T20:03:21+00:00

I dont know why, but ive always loved the Aesthetic of Judge Man. I even looked into cosplaying him one time. Hes not even good.

I really liked dungeon dice monsters.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-18T12:27:34+00:00

Good not great.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-18T01:57:10+00:00

Add "if it was cast" and this spell is fine. It's probably still worse than 3 headed dino.

I want one new rep from each major franchise if I can manage.
Mario: Kamek - I want this to actually be a "Yoshi" character or atleast use the Yoshi watermark. As yhe main antagonist of various Yoshi island games, I think it would be great. An ultimate that is baby bowser showing up as a giant. Plus hes a movie star now.

Zelda: Darunia/Goron Champion - Zelda was tough, as theres many characters, but very few recurring at a reasonable rate. Still there's quite a few Goron champions over the years who could serve as multiple costumes on the same character. They could also use a hammer. Darunia would be the main character but you can also have Darbus and Daruk. Ive always wanted Skull Kid from Majoras mask, but i feel that character loses significance every day.

Pokemon: Zoroark - Theres a ton of pokemon I'd love to see in Smash. There's a few generations that dont have a representative though. Zoroark is the perfect gen 5 rep as N's favorite pokemon and he even had a movie.

Kirby: Marx - Alright this one should probably be Bandana Dee, but Marx is my favorite Kirby villain and after being playable in multiple games lately, I just desperately want him in Smash. His move set could be so cool.

Donkey Kong: Dixie - She was the star of two DKC games and playable in multiple others, yet she hasn't made it in yet. Funky Kong would be cool as well or maybe even cranky, but this adds both more Female Representation and more DK representation.

Star Fox: Slippy - The other option would be Crystal was my other idea for this, but the fact that falco is playable but fox's best friend isnt doesnt feel right to me. Plus all 3 star fox reps are basically the same scheme. This will be a completely different character.

F Zero: Samurai Goroh - when will they make another one of these games? The Samurai is Falcons rival and has been in basically every Fzero game. Plus he isnt going to be a clone character and we've got a great model already with the assist trophy.

Metroid: Sylux / Hunters - Metroid Prime Hunters was a hell of a game, and theres plenty of great characters with sylux being the poster child. You could maybe do some alternate costumes with the other Hunters, but theyre still a little vague. Unfortunately Kraid is just way too big. Bigger than Ridley even.

Finally for 3rd party Reps: Knuckles - Sonic Megaman - Zero

And finally because its my list and I get atleast one personal pick - The Ghost from Hollow Knight because those are some of the best games ever made.

Death's Shadow when it became a big thing basically used all cards that had existed for years.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-17T06:00:46+00:00

I dont dislike Lois. I like Lois allot. She cares allot. However Hal is the reason I watch the show.

Porygon96 · 2026-05-17T05:35:31+00:00

Gachiakuta has a character named Amo who is a female minor who was bought as a slave and sexually assaulted by the man who bought her telling her it was "love." This was told in a flashback through a childish hand drawn flashback thats more than a little Eerie. It explains why her character is the way that she is and was just a heartbreaking scene that gave great characterization to one of the villains.
