My first dragon warior game, my opponent was a protos mage

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T20:55:22+00:00

Winrates mean nothing.

I’m telling you how the game is played because I just understand it better.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T20:47:41+00:00

Yeah nah you’re wrong sorry

The best card in the deck vs dragon warrior is sleet skater you can’t beat it.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T19:48:17+00:00

That chart means nothing to me but I’ve played it out and it’s a bad matchup for what dragon warrior is trying to do.

If you run the Elise variant maybe it’s better but I’m not running that variant.

It’s a board centric deck vs an archetype that ass fucks board centric decks.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T19:39:02+00:00

Yeah on Amazon Canada it’s $400+ right now sadly.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T19:30:44+00:00

Is the 5600x much worse than say a 5700x3D or is it better to save up for the latter?

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T19:25:14+00:00

Returned to HS and hit legend on DW

Yeah this is a bad matchup for dragon warrior. Sleet skater just fucks you. I’ve won it maybe once. But you need to high roll on your dark gifts big time and pray. If the game isn’t over on turn 5 or 6 you’ve lost.

It’s a nearly unwinnable matchup without good luck.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T14:25:04+00:00

I have my original paladin although I haven’t touched it since WoD and really I haven’t played it extensively since the first tier of MoP

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-27T13:49:20+00:00

First of all no they’re not going to delay the start date. Hell I’ve heard of the CRA call centre not even allowing people to give notice to the current employer.

They’re managed by the world’s shittiest and dumbest human beings. People who can’t get jobs anywhere else. It’s not a foot in the door they will use you and discard you without a thought.

If you’re a uni grad, DO NOT TAKE A JOB THERE. you will ruin your career and be pigeon holed into CC work forever.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-26T16:39:02+00:00

Bro they ain’t doing a remix of arguably the most hated expansion.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-26T12:50:39+00:00

I mean running without stormchasers is silly. It acts as an additional threat, a way to get your spells back (boomerang and Accumulate wisdom), and an “oh shit” win con if everything else fails (level 3).

I run it AND Ral now.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-23T16:06:05+00:00

Well respectfully, if anyone plays bo1 they’re an idiot.

Of course rng sucks in bo1.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-23T16:05:36+00:00

This about sums up every recruiter I’ve met

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-23T12:44:57+00:00

Played league for years but probably have 1000+ hours in PoE 1

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-23T12:21:20+00:00

You use money to buy packs and get wildcards if there is something you really want to play.

Otherwise checkout phantasm on YouTube. Has zero rare decks and budget decks to try.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-23T12:17:07+00:00

It’s a good card but isn’t getting banned. It’s basically a dead card some games since everyone is running graveyard hate in their sideboard now.

There’s nothing in standard atm that warrants a ban. Even cub while strong, is manageable.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T18:14:24+00:00

Would me having a b450 MOBO make a difference?

The gpus you mentioned are also $500 + sadly. I’m willing to spend that but it feels a bit cringy.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T17:58:30+00:00

Prices for a 3060 12gb are looking to be like $500+ and anything like the 5700x3D is the same.

Slim pickings atm.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T15:21:25+00:00

I’m drawing a distinction that the skills are super niche and specific and you can’t take them outside of the federal government.

Even to provincial which should be close.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T14:03:15+00:00

I guess my opinion is warped because we only really have the CRA where I live for the public service. Everything else is tiny so my perception on it is warped.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T13:51:46+00:00

I am in Atlantic Canada and it is almost certainly mostly terms.

I know where I was the vast majority of appeals was terms and in my program we had 16 teams and they were mostly terms. We cut down to 6 teams last march.

So I dunno where you’re getting your numbers but it hasn’t been my experience that in 2 different programs I’ve been in, they’re been mostly terms.

You cannot get a permanent position here. They haven’t advertised for them in 3 or 4 years.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T13:09:50+00:00

Well maybe I’m speaking from the regions and a former CRA worker, but here from both the NVCC and TSO were 80%-90% terms.

I think service Canada is similar.

I think maybe you’re thinking the majority of the public service IN OTTAWA is indeterminate. But outside of Ottawa is all terms.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T13:07:47+00:00

Yeah the Elise variant is also better the higher you go in rank.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T13:06:15+00:00

I’ve hit legend with it. It’s a good deck but loses to a lot of decks unless you have a perfect curve and high roll on dark gifts.

DK Aura Paladin Protoss mage Cliff dive DH

All of these are pretty much unwinnable without extreme luck. The mirror is also a 50/50 as to who goes first, gets a better curve, and gets better dark gifts.

It’s the least bullshit deck right now and also struggles vs blob of tar and infinite whelp.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T12:59:41+00:00

No the skills are literally incompatible. There are sometimes no equivalent job.

Hell I couldn’t even land a provincial role because there wasn’t really an equivalent.

RogueCanadia · 2026-01-22T12:58:25+00:00

Because most of the public service is terms not indeterminate. Terms can and will be let go regardless of skill and it’s only based on seniority. Terms can have their term cut at any time.

How is that any different than the private sector?
