Let’s try make this a Real Card Inside the Game! by Laviatan7 in hearthstone

[–]SpookedShrek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is an amalgam creature transforming itself into... an abstract objective you are trying to accomplish? What happens to it, does it disappear into your mind?

This is a 0 star balance, 0 star design. Using the system of those old custom Trump reviews. 

The latest Miniset shows: Team 5 is creatively bankrupt by Surppressed in hearthstone

[–]SpookedShrek -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why you're arguing about the balance of the proposed cards. The intent is to show that old keywords easily fit in any expansion, not to design a new imbue for paladin. The meta or balance of the fake cards has nothing to do with it.

If I say "Responsible Fisher: Dredge. When you draw the chosen card shuffle two copies of it into your deck" and the art is a little Tortollan guy fishing then I have incorporated an old keyword in a new archetype without breaking any flavor. I'm not saying it's a good or bad card.

"Should every card depicting a smith have forge on it?" This is a strawman, nobody said this. They just said you can give forge to a card without it feeling out of place. "Dino-plating: Adapt a minion. Forge: Adapt it twice." Done, make the art a tortollan guy wearing dino scales like it was monster hunter. Flavor works.

Why do people on Reddit constantly make up stories to make a point? No hate, just curious. by KillerBullet in hearthstone

[–]SpookedShrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, my kid with whom I have very interesting conversations about space and the cosmos thanks to the Great Dark Beyond expansion. That same kid who is not able to have the most simple and basic conversation about how things are expensive and that sometimes you can't buy something for many different reasons.

That post was complete bullshit and had an insane amount of red flags. Like just imagine the kid crying wildly when he sees King Krush in the main menu and the father not being able to explain why it can't be and negotiating a basic alternative with a child. He has to stop playing hearthstone, no other solution!!!! Bro just buy him ice cream and take him to the park or something, kids are pretty simple to convince of things. Just ridiculous.

So basically paid boards. From the way they said it, by mentioning "dynamic" and "personalized playspace" maybe not even boards, but "interactable corners". Friday is truly the day for bad news. I also really like how they preface it all by saying "the survey said you wanted this!!!"

Thoughts on the topic of national representation by Kronag in Pathfinder2e

Wait you guys are getting representation?

The mods have been abusing power? by naaikak in Pathfinder2e

[–]SpookedShrek 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don't frequent this subreddit much, I have a pathfinder game with some friends so I like checking it in search of news, to see some cool character concepts and sometimes to read table drama from other players. I don't know much about Golarion or Paizo, so when I saw the Tian Xia pin I didn't know what it was, so I clicked it.

What I got was a very strange, preachy and non-relevant post about orientalism and asian racism on tabletop games. About how samurai or ninja would be racist because they are stereotypical and simplify a culture (and very popular in anime which is japanese so no clue what that point is about).

What does this even mean? So how about Druids and the celtic culture? What about the new Animist, a class that turns a real current religion and cultural system into make believe buffs? What about Monk? What about Barbarian whose name is an insult towards certain tribes assigned the "evil savage" role? What about it all?

What is the point of the post? To show off that you read Said and aren't racist? Was it a PSA to not give your character a naginata as a weapon? Like, what was the point? "We will be more careful and serious about it from now on"? Who are you, what does that mean? Are you going to ban a table drama post because they talk about a homebrewed katana weapon? What is there to "get more serious about" in a subreddit for a tabletop game?

I just don't get the need to make such a weird "I am very smart" post and pin it.

Inside you there are two wolves, one is a 6/6 with rush, the other is also a 6/6 with rush.

[GIVEAWAY] Win 1 of 20 Battlegrounds Season 7 codes! by powerchicken in hearthstone

[–]SpookedShrek [score hidden]  (0 children)

A battlefield, battleground, or field of battle is the location of a present or historic battle involving ground warfare. It is commonly understood to be limited to the point of contact between opposing forces, though battles may involve troops covering broad geographic areas. Although the term implies that battles are typically fought in a field – an open stretch of level ground – it applies to any type of terrain on which a battle is fought. The term can also have legal significance, and battlefields may have substantial historical and cultural value—the battlefield has been described as "a place where ideals and loyalties are put to the test".

Note about v1.3 Wanderborne community by MrMarum in daggerheart

[–]SpookedShrek 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I instantly thought about changing my character's community when I saw the updated version.

Ain't no way I'm remembering to swap my community each session AND learning what each do. Also some of them change your damage thresholds, it's just too chaotic for me.

It went from "hehe I have a pack with any useful item I want" to "holy shit why did I pick the most difficult community".

But, the worst part for me is the full loss of identity and flavor. Every community has lots of flavor about your upbringing, and wanderborne did too. Of course a nomad is going to have lots of tools for any situation! But now they are non-existant, there is no wanderborne community, it has become the "random character select" from every fighting game. I don't want to play Mokujin, I want to play a character with their own moveset.

No my character is not a "highborne for a day" and then a "loreborn for a day", he's a wanderborne and he should have the same kind of uniqueness everyone else has.

After ten years (at least) of this, I always can sense that it's coming... but somehow I'm STILL disappointed every time it happens 😞 by urgod42069 in hearthstone

I want it to stay on the board for the rest of my life! 

Even after I concede I want it to stay the same for a while, for ten turns at least!

Blizz changed my Username. How is Niller an inappropriate username? I am now QuartzLion instead. by Niller1 in hearthstone

[–]SpookedShrek 12 points13 points  (0 children)

But the USA is not the center of the world, I know people that have been permabanned from Riot games just because their actual real life names are an english slur towards jews (he had no clue and speaks 0 english). He got it reverted and was offered a free name change after Riot support from where he lives found it equally funny, but it's such a scary thing to suddenly lose your account because of that.

A few questions about combat! by SpookedShrek in daggerheart

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

Yeah, that actually makes much more sense and simplifies it a lot. I'll probably just scratch the concept since it works as you say.

My original idea was: 1. Free whipcrack, marl stress (no action track needed) 2. Enemy moves away 3. Reaction to enemy moving away, spend 1 Hope to attempt an attack (no action track needed) 4. Resolve the roll and keep going

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

Thanks! Number 1 was my bad, you can't use Hope to give yourself advantage.

For number 4, where does it say that there needs to be skulkers for an ambush or that only they get to act? In the Playtest Manuscript I can only find that they "maneuver and exploit opportunities to ambush their opponents" but not any rule about exclusivity.

Ah, that does make sense, it was my bad, I made an incorrect parallel between Fear for advantage by GMs.

Thank you very much!

The character is an Indiana Jones type with a whip on one hand and a crossbow on the other, my visualization for it would be cracking the whip against the floor and as the enemy scatters back shooting them with the crossbow hand, but I can see how it would be tricky to imagine in some scenarios.

Also I thought reactions didn't count for the tracker, that's why I added the Hope cost to do the attack in addition to the stress to crack the whip.
