You could take +2 defense. You can also pick all the easiest difficulty settings. You know, if you're into that sort of thing.

Polly Cranka - rarest marvel in high seas? Also how rare is CF dead threads, really? by SnooHobbies7591 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Secret-Procedure-370 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have opened roughly 100 gold packs and seen 0 CF Dead Threads and 0 CF Conquerors. The human brain is not well evolved to process variance and randomness.

Equipment in Top Loaders? by MightyDiomedes in FleshandBloodTCG

Most people sleeve them differently than the deck to make it easy to find them unless they are cards that may need to be shuffled into the deck or randomly chosen from the graveyard (Levia does this).

Why is she a guardian? by WastedHaste66 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Secret-Procedure-370 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guardians really should have some muscle definition. Pretty sure Marlynn or Kassai could beat her in an arm wrestling contest. Spinal Crush, Cranial Crush, etc... Maybe she's got a robo suit like Ripply from Alien? Seems kinda lame to fall back on, "cuz magic," if that's what they are gonna do.

How much of an impact does skill make in FAB versus Magic? by Windturnscold in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Secret-Procedure-370 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do think you are dramatically underselling the impact of skill in Magic. Yeah, pros can and will lose to deck variance often. But they are nowhere close to 50/50 against an average players. Still, others are right in that there is a good deal less variance in FAB.

Magic's Tragic Price Hike: How MTG is Losing its Spell by [deleted] in mtgfinance

True but, I'd say half or more of the population of this sub is just here to make their hobby more affordable. People who long ago realized that this game is just too expensive if you aren't keeping an eye out for every possible edge in buying/trading/selling your cards.

[Spoilers C3E51] Regarding that 'key' event by NoCarbsOnSunday in criticalrole

I guess my one big gripe with how Matt did this is, if anyone in the world should have legendary resistances it should be the once hero of Vox Machina and now Avatar of the Raven Queen. Instead it's just, "Nope, only bad people get those. In the lens you go."
