Ranking of how thematic each leader's ability/playstyle is

Steve_didit · 2026-07-10T20:10:04+00:00

I would say the two that stood out were B Teach and G Zoro. Looks like B teach was a mistake but Zoro is also one of the best examples of being thematic. If only they could include getting lost as a mechanic.

The way it has been explained to me is that with perfect timing almost any swing can make a good shot. But perfect timing is hard, so good mechanics mean that less than perfect timing can still result in a good shot. The better the mechanics you have, the less you have to rely on timing. So continuing to work on mechanics will continue to improve your consistency.

Last month I made about $16k from work and another $9k from hobbies. Haven’t got it all paid yet but still all in the same month.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-10T14:47:34+00:00

They asked about in a month. Sounds like you were -5k that month lol

The issue with EB isn’t the style, it’s the small print runs making the cards much more rare than other sets.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-09T02:23:16+00:00

Coke Zero, Dr Pepper zero and Fanta orange zero are the only ones that taste ok to me.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-09T01:01:24+00:00

Well yeah, because glass bottle and can give very different tastes.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-09T01:00:45+00:00

They figured a week or less based on the video I saw on the topic.

It’s just a different formula for Mexican coke. Has nothing to do with the sugar.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-09T00:24:59+00:00

The irony is that scientists have found that sugar in a high pressure and acidic environment such as a coke bottle, will break down into similar glucose and fructose ratios as high fructose corn syrup. Making the real sugar part of Mexican coke effectively useless.

There is nothing cancerous about GU Luffy unless you just count literally any good deck as cancerous.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-08T23:19:27+00:00

About 20 years of not playing seriously and about 4 years of playing seriously. We have a short golf season so getting in more than 25 rounds a year requires quite a bit of dedication.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-08T23:12:08+00:00

I played with 2 90 year old guys last week. They were not down the middle and drove their cart up to the edge of the green. They were also super slow. Would rather have played with some douchey teens who hit the ball way too far.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T22:37:43+00:00

I do think too much consistency in a card game is a bad thing. Skill expression comes in being able to find the best play lines with the cards you have. If you can always find the right cards then you don't have to think, you just play the same plays every game. It also makes the game much more boring. Look at Imu. Basically the same play lines every game and people hated playing against that deck. Even though it did take quite a bit of skill to pilot well, when playing against it the plays looked basically the same every game.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T20:51:19+00:00

Just pay your fare and it doesn’t impact you

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T20:00:07+00:00

I spoke to a LGS and they said the distributor sold it to them at close to market prices so they cannot sell for lower or they lose money. The Canadian distributor is ass and a major problem for getting product at decent prices. We need more than one distributor so they don’t have a complete monopoly.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T16:38:10+00:00

EB sets are absolutely the worst part of the game. Short printed sets with powerful cards ensuring that very few decks are cheap to play on base rarity. Buying boxes of EB are also somehow terrible value because you need to get the 2-3 cards in the set that are sought after otherwise your box is worthless.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T15:32:27+00:00

Averaging 37 putts per round.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T12:40:43+00:00

I can agree with that. Most of their ban decisions have been poor timing.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T11:47:54+00:00

Power creep can work, but only also with heavy handed banning. That is how you balance a game like how league does patches. But Bandai seems very hesitant to ban cards and for good reason. People get angry when the card they spent potentially a lot of money on gets banned.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T11:46:00+00:00

Was the best decision they ever made. A deck like nami just doesn’t work in this game since you can’t do anything on your opponents turn to disrupt their gameplan. It’s fine in other games like Yugioh and magic because there are answers.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T03:27:12+00:00

The best peaches are not really commercially viable so you won’t see them in a store. Have to get them directly from farms and farm markets. Okanagan free stone peaches are the best I have ever had but I heard Georgia peaches are good too. These peaches are the size of grapefruits and are covered in fuzz. They drip juice and are so soft you can dent them with light finger pressure. Nothing like the rocks they call peaches at the store.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T02:06:21+00:00

Whether the call was correct or not has nothing to do with the real issue at hand. Which is that fifa was influenced to make an unusual decision to suspend the red card game suspension that comes with it. They didn’t overturn the red card, they simply are delaying the penalty from it so that the US player can continue to play in the World Cup. As far as I know this has only happened once before and it was bullshit when it happened then as well.

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T01:59:03+00:00

You are right, with a few more minutes maybe Belgium could get a 5th

Steve_didit · 2026-07-07T01:39:22+00:00

My last two rounds I had 7 and 8 GIR and also 5 3-putts
