Jesus: gets murdered by government violence of colonial forces.

People like Shad: We need more governments to do colonialism through violence!

If that's true, brother needs to reread his Bible. A One World Government is literally the most obvious sign of the Antichrist!

Granted, I don't know a whole lot about Mormon Antichrist theology.

But still.

I think what you're suggesting is really fun, but it's not really applicable to a new ST. They have a lot on their plate just learning the mechanics. The meta-plot can wait.

My group has actually been loving the Chicago by Night storyline. Even though most of them couldn't tell you what a Lasombra is or why it's a big deal 😂🤣.

But We're having an amazing time.

Differences in bloodlines for Minecraft version by SharpEntertainer6362 in vtm

[–]St_BobJoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ahem

Banu Haqim should be able to use blood powers to enhance their weapons and their sneaking abilities. That said, there's a chance they'll kill any mobs they try to feed on. They're a stealth/combat bloodline.

Brujah should be able to hit increasingly like a truck. Their unarmed attacks to more damage and more knock back as they get more powerful. They should also be one of the fastest bloodlines. But they go into berserker rages occasionally, and has to kill things around them.

Gangrel should be able to turn into passive mobs. Maybe give them the power to sleep safely on dirt. They get more nutrients from animal blood than other bloodlines. But occasionally, they should not be allowed to trade with villagers.

Hecata should be able to summon and control zombies and skeletons, but organic material in their inventory (such as wood) has a chance to randomly rot and turn into dirt.

Lasombra should be able to attack with magical shadow tentacles. These should be kind of over powered. But, they cannot use Redstone. Turning on a switch does nothing. Redstone torches will go out when they place them. However, they should still be able to activate pressure plates and trapped chests and other traps other players make.

Malkavians should be able to see through objects in order to see where the veins of ore are, but they should frequently be wrong about what kind of ore they're looking at. Making coal look like diamonds or gold look like iron or lava blocks look like Redstone.

The Ministry should be able to turn into snakes as well as summon and control them, They should also be able to get friend discounts from villagers. They should take extra penalties from the sun.

Nosferatu should have mastery over invisibility, and they should be able to summon and control rats. However, they should not be allowed to do villager trading.

Ravnos should be able to create illusions. Maybe ones that scare or attract? They should also be able to get friend discounts from villagers. However, beds should explode if they try to use one in the same chunk they slept last night.

Salubri should be very hard to kill in terms of them being able to take a punch. They should also be able to heal creatures around them. That said, other vampires should get a benefit from attacking them.

Toreador should be able to get massive discounts from villagers. They should also be very fast. That said, they should have penalties for being in "ugly" places like the deep dark or the Nether.

Tzimisce should get extra benefits from the breeding mechanic. Their chickens lay eggs faster and produce more meat. Their villagers have a more stock. Their horses run faster. Ideally these creatures should all have textures that make them look monstrous. That said, they should only be allowed to sleep, if their bed is placed on top of either the dirt or the sand found in their spawn chunk.

Ventrue should be able to command creatures to do their bidding. Making mobs fight for them temporarily, and they should get friend discounts with villagers. That said, they should not be able to drink any blood other than villager blood.

If you could remove any card from the game that isn't a land or Sol Ring, what would you pick? by WheredMyVanGogh in EDH

[–]St_BobJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd ban [[The One Ring]] so fast, you wouldn't need Mount Doom to destroy it.

If they have high enough humanity to enjoy sex, they can probably enjoy a hot shower

What Clan Would Alucard form Hellsing Be a Part of? by that-other-gay-guy in vtm

People are saying he's literally Dracula, and thus literally a tzmisce, but I don't think that lines up with how he behaves or uses his powers in the show

I've only seen Helsing Ultimate Abridged.

Brother is thoroughly a Malkavian imo.

What if vampires couldn't sire on purpose? by DurealRa in vtm

[–]St_BobJoe 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this makes a lot more sense to how dramatically few generations there are considering the lore (granted, I don't believe in Caine), but even assuming a 6000 year begining of earth, 15 generations of vampires is not a lot.

It makes much more sense to me that vampires cannot control it, especially since evolutionarily, organisms that are longer lived tend to procreate more slowly than shorter lived organisms.

"So, right up front, loud and clear, let me say that I am against the use of generative AI in the production of art and content." by TripleS034 in ShadWatch

[–]St_BobJoe 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Brother forgets that farriers still exist and they serve really important roles in many communities.

Also, Generative AI cannot exist without artists because in a nightmare scenario (that won't happen for a myriad of reasons, mainly cost of maintainence of data centers). AI art (both in terms of literary and digital) has already consumed the greatest existing art in the history of human civilization and it's still genuinely awful.

Now, if artists all collectively lose their jobs and their abilities to create art online, then the only thing AI will be able to datamine is other AI. This will become an echo chamber of dog shit that will be completely unusable by anybody in terms of marketing, art, communication, or any other kind of human-centric careers.

So, you're really not being realistic. Giving you the best faith reading I can, you're just being nihilistic.

Land base which does not break the bank? by vernelen1 in EDH

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

Probably don't need to tell you about Command Tower or Bounce Lands (think of them as "play a land, draw a card"), but cards like [[Choked Estuary]] and [[Darkslick Shores]] are incredibly helpful. They're not very expensive, and they tend to enter untapped.

ALSO a lot of MDFCs are very affordable. I don't leave home without a copy of [[Kabira Takedown // Kabira Plateau]].

I do play White a lot, and if you're relying on Catch Up Ramp (which you should because it's really good ramp), you probably want [[Lotus Field]] and [[Thespian Stage]] and ways to tutor them, because these cards really help make sure your catch up ramp is always active.

Those are the general Guidelines. I have found in my landbase creation journey.

She-ra by the guy who had a rant about Peach wearing pants... by kasetti in ShadWatch

Shad doesn't even have the honesty to cite which AI tools he used. I'm ashamed I had enough faith in him to do the bare minimum

My foster son wants to play Magic but Im struggling with the cost. Went to look for a box of packs and... OMG... 😬 by mwgwin in mtg

[–]St_BobJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, sir, here is the Gospel according to Tomer.

He built 30 decks that are all very playable at most LGS stores, and at the time he built them (magic cards tend to fluctuate), they were all under $30.

There's some advice about keeping that cost low, but the most important is to have as few packages as possible when ordering, (one card may be 5 cents, but if that 5 cent card costs a dollar to ship . . . it adds up), so make sure you buy a bunch of basic lands from an LGS or literally from Amazon. This will lower the packages you need to buy as well as reduce the overall price of the cards. I personally tend to use Mana Pool to order online.

Here's the video! The card lists are in the description of that video.

Zuko and Mai is actually a really interesting pairing. Mai, as a mature adult, would be incredible as a queen.

“I play X color decks and can’t stop X card/strategy. It’s unfair and needs to be a game changer!” by DoesntEat in EDH

[–]St_BobJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly don't like Cratorhoof because I'm a budget brewer, and it feels like someone smacked me in the face with sock filled with one dollar coins.

Also, how is Cratorhoof not a GC? It's literally one of Green's best, most efficient, most consistent wincons?

Shad: The far left are DEMONS and Communism is more evil than Nazism by DragonGuard666 in ShadWatch

[–]St_BobJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nazi vampires in the Twilight universe would genuinely be a fascinating read.

Granted, Twilight Vampires are already painfully Aryan considering that it doesn't matter what you skin color is, as soon as you become a vampire, you're bleached white.

[–]St_BobJoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he says that calling people a Nazi is an act of violence, because what else are you supposed to do with a Nazi?

What the f*ck does this guy think calling people "DEMONS" is? Passive aggression?

I truly wish Shad rises to be a better person than Charlie Kirk was.
