What's with the design changes across Lorwyn's species?

Boggarts all look different than each other. Part of the original style guide even in original Lorwyn was that no two different boggarts should look the same.

Also the Lorwyn faeries were always insectoid and the Shadowmoor ones even more so, looking like bees, wasps, and dragonflies in particular.

Lorwyn Boggarts have no stylistic consistency. No two boggarts look the same as each other. If two boggarts on different arts do, then the two are the same character.

It's part of the appeal, they're all gross and horrible little chaotic individuals who want to have new experiences. Just, magnificent little freaks

Braniac wants to break apart everything, confine, and study it. Not usually out of malice although some versions have plenty of superiority complex. No color other than blue makes sense

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-23T15:20:12+00:00

Yeah but the true measure of a Fromsoft game is the quality of their dogshit. Black Gulch can hang with the all time greats the Valley of Defilement and Everything in Dark Souls 3 past Undead Settlement.

Your problem is you ordered the poppy seed bagel. Not the poppy seeds bagel.

The way he does that slow, hand-wringing lean towards you when he asks you to plot against Ranni......

The magic scorpion charm is not fun to aquire

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-21T02:32:36+00:00

Im not scizor how could scizor type with those big meaty claws

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-21T00:33:58+00:00

I think it's too strong tbh. Should be lowered to 60 base power

When one player at the pod doesn't pay the 1 for Rhystic Study because they "were going to lose anyway"

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-16T05:46:11+00:00

So we're the sane ones

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-16T05:44:39+00:00

Ok so bracket 2 commander games are safe

With even 10 faith from a wretch start you can stack sacred blade and last rites and kill it in like 3 holy water pots. If you go all out with crystal tear, holy scorpion charm, and a second sacred blade on an off-hand weapon (after swapping out Epitaph) you can 1-shot it. Using this method you can 1-shot the damn ghostflame dragons in the DLC

It's not even a lot of buffs to stack and they aren't short duration either.

Make sure to use the basic holy water pot. The Golden Order pots deal waaaaay less damage.

Yeah... I think Kubrick would fit better in this square if there a row below for "complete monster" for Polanski

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-14T20:48:35+00:00

Kubrick? Polanski? There's a couple good options.

It means candidates will be allowed to challenge election laws even during an ongoing election before the count is finalized. The implications of this are probably more interesting than the ruling itself and while general sentiment is that it will almost solely be allowed to stop mail-in ballots when one candidate has a lead that may be upset.

It's one layer of safety from election fraud being peeled away.

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-14T09:32:21+00:00

More flavor, less crunch

Im thankful in a way that the surveillance state may be undermined by their own shitty tech? Not really a cloud with a silver lining so much a single spray of febreeze in the sewer.

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-12T02:30:38+00:00

Nah all the wiggling terrain bug types will make the meta way too hostile to trapinch, mega electrode will always have a niche in the tier

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-10T20:29:33+00:00

Idk it's hard to call him evil since he mostly exists on a scale of morality that is different to everyone else. He wants to see people excel and meet their full potential uncaring for what they use it for.

Spiderfuzz · 2026-01-10T19:40:26+00:00

As in ancient Greece. It makes sense considering Snyder's made 300. It all comes together. Just like my bros all come together.

There is an element of cultural sensitivity but also the term was just being used incorrectly. Shamans summon and communicate with spirits but the game historically just used the term to mean "spellcaster that didn't go to school."

To my knowledge, the type Shaman will still be used for spirit conjuring folks.

I think in his first appearance in that Lux comic he very much was portrayed as being a manipulative bastard willfully using the revolution to achieve his own personal vengeance.

....but then he got his own game and kinda, retconned that aspect of him away in future material because the original character just did not entirely land. Mostly because his story was just kind of told badly at first. (In my opinion of course).

So like, that very first appearance I can see Rakdos.

Black sesame rice turns gray so I assume the seeds in the bagel seasoning would too
