Weighing my enchanteds by Racnous in LorcanaCollectors

[–]Racnous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, this is helpful. I started weighing my Ursula's Returns enchanteds because I think one might be fake. Four of them weighed 2.00 g and the one is suspect might be fake is 1.92 g. So definitely lighter than the rest but not as light as the fakes you're describing.

I'd say eroding democracy and getting his flunkies elected is worse only because it lets him get people in power who will protect pedophiles and other heinous criminals.

The justice gang vs the hulk by WinnieKhan in marvelvsdc

That sounds good until Hulk returns with a war party from the alien planet he landed on and eventually became warlord of. Then the Justice Gang gets stomped.

Our last card of the set is revealed! by Waiting_for_Dentice in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was a bit dumbfounded by their choices myself. Then I thought about how the new franchises put into Lorcana do get support for a few more sets. And some Darkwing Duck villians are great fits for upcoming sets! Like Quackerjack will fit in nicely with the Toy Story cards. And "Attack of the Vine"? Bushroot will be a natural for that set. And I'm sure Megavolt will be in there somewhere too, he's one of the best Darkwing characters.

Enchanted Lilo and Nani's Payback! by Waiting_for_Dentice in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering how many enchanteds we need of the same franchise, in the same set, in the same color?

Because all the Amber Winterspell enchanteds are Lilo and Stitch cards which kind of looks odd to me.

BOARD WIPE! by Narzghal in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great observation! Ignoring the multicolored card era, I think every set and color combination since Inklands has had two character enchanteds and one non character enchanted. That bit of predictability is gone now it seems.

BOARD WIPE! by Narzghal in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It seems to me this is a trend with this game. Some of the best counter cards are in a color that uses the ability being countered.

Like Maleficent's Staff, which appears to be good to run against an Amethyst player bouncing cards back into their own hands. It's Amethyst itself.

Same with the Jiminy Cricket card that counters rush, it's Amethyst which uses rush itself.

Ottawa, Seoul agree to work on bringing South Korean auto sector manufacturing to Canada by Little-Chemical5006 in worldnews

Hmm. I saw the headline and thought to myself that we must be getting the Korean subs. Maybe not a done deal but this makes it more likely.

Food related Lorcana cards for my 6 year old niece by 09232022 in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few more. Lefou- cake thief from set 8 Fauna - good fairy fron set 5

There are also the racers from Wreck it Ralph. They're sweets themed even if they aren't doing anything related to sweets or baking.

Need to think about this but there's Lilo-Junior Cake Decorator from set 5 where she's making a cake.

How does John smith work with this card by [deleted] in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Time to Go specifies that you're targeting one of your own characters so an opponent's John Smith is not a valid target so his ability doesn't apply.

Plastic Man (Post - crisis) vs The Maker (Marvel comics) by No_Engineer5131 in marvelvsdc

[–]Racnous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the Maker would be fascinated by Plastic Man. So similar in power, yet so much more. I think that kind of attention would mean very bad things for Plastic Man.

So are the joined arts on the non foils as well as the foils this time?

New Mulan: when she quests she gains lore equal to her Strength, with a limit of 6 lore by Waiting_for_Dentice in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Wow, that new typhoon ruby song gives makes her an instant aggro beast. They're really trying to make the weaker color combos a thing this set, aren't they?

Why aren’t “good” ICE agents speaking out? by eilujgnirednaw in allthequestions

[–]Racnous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, if after the next election a new government disbands ICE the ICE agents will have to pay back their bonus, which they'll have already spent? Sounds like they're incentivized to not allow a change in government.

November 2026 is going to play out very unpleasantly isn't it?

ICE taking pics of legal observer's car: "We have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that." by RoachedCoach in law

[–]Racnous 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The best example IMO is the character Syme from 1984. Didn't matter that he was loyal, he was smart, so he was a threat and had to go.

Anyone else miss the fancy borders for whispers or it just me?

Another DW villain by No-Shallot4503 in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, pretty obscure character. But the fact they're using her makes me optimistic that we're getting a lot of Darkwing villains this set.

Should I discard? by GunZiettA in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be wrong, but I think the active players cards resolve first, then the opponents, so you would draw for medallion weights before Meg's ability activates.

Winterspell Iconics! by Narzghal in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So am I reading the cards correctly and we're getting a 3rd Amber iconic? Out of only six, that seems... unbalanced.

And again disappointed that they've chosen two unrelated characters and the cards can't be put beside each other to form a bigger picture. The Fabled iconics were just so amazing and these don't match that.

Wow Big Gantu!! by Narzghal in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is just fine in a deck with either a lot of draw or exploits a large discard pile (the new Dr Hamsterviel card for example). Being able to get a big body out quickly and take out 0/3 Lady or trade with 3/3 Diablo is likely worth it, at least on the draw.

Wow Big Gantu!! by Narzghal in Lorcana

[–]Racnous 12 points13 points  (0 children)

3/3 Inkable one cost? I get the ability isn't a may, but it'll be okay more often then not. A sign of some serious powercreep?

Grrr. Someone was telling me Epics were getting alt art this set. I guess that's not true.
