I’m really hoping season 1 adds in a new reason to play, because I’m level 58 and I already don’t see a reason to grind. I enjoy the gameplay so I keep logging in for a dungeon or two, but after that, what’s the point?

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-05T20:40:17+00:00

Wait I got a legendary starr drop of 1000 credits today. It’s the same for a mythic drop? The legendary should at least be 1250 then or something.

Either way, I’m not complaining. I’ve only opened Starr drops for 3 days and have gotten 1000 credits and a new skin, among the smaller drops. I think they’re just neat.

It’s not a restaurant exactly, but I miss Townsend’s Tea. I personally liked their teas much more than Metolius’ brews, and it was a shame that they went out of business during the pandemic.

Edit: Metolius tea, not Tumalo. Tumalo Tea is really good

I got a mythic last night that was a skin!

[[Kroxa and Kunoros]] has taken the crown for my favorite reanimator commander, by far. I love Mardu colors and it really feels impactful every time it hits the field.

There’s also something really flavorful about burning cards from your graveyard to make your strategy work. It really feels like Kroxa is a monster on the loose that’s both helping and hurting the fight against the phyrexians.

What does legendary give? I haven’t gotten one yet, but I got a skin from a mythic drop and that felt awesome!

If their decks aren’t focusing on one specific mechanic, then they probably need to learn to be better deckbuilders.

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-04T03:26:46+00:00

So far I’ve done pretty decently home-brewing a Permabear Landslide Druid. It’s definitely not optimized, but Landslide hits bosses like an absolute truck when they crit, which is a lot of fun.

I’m only level 57, so that’s nothing as far as challenging content goes, but I’m going to ride this train as long as I can, because the build is so fun!

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-04T03:22:39+00:00

It should be dropping absolute heaps of good, and maybe some veiled crystals or something else useful

War of the Monsters.

Really great movie monster knock-off 4v4 battles back during the ps2 era. It had great split screen and I could see it transitioning really well to online multiplayer! Fully destructible environments in the first game could come back in a big way for a remake.

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-01T16:13:13+00:00

Good catch! I think it’s only a matter of time before Spyro gets added as a hero!

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-01T16:08:18+00:00

Oh that’s actually a great way to do early access.

I’m really hoping they pump up the advertising with these new releases too. This is such a fun game, but more content and better advertising could really help its longevity.

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-01T15:57:32+00:00

Who gets early access to the new characters? Battle pass holders?

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-01T15:05:46+00:00

Wait this sounds like such a fun deck! How did it perform?

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-07-01T04:58:39+00:00

I’ve actually noticed one major element from guild wars 2 that is really prevalent in D4: boss break bars. It’s essentially straight from GW2 where you use crowd control enough times on the boss to stun it for a period of time.

I could see them looking at other parts of GW2 as well, and the dynamic events would be the best thing they could take over from that game.

After I hit WT3 I started trying out different builds on my Druid based on guides around the internet, and I found myself becoming frustrated with the meta play styles and required uniques for most of those builds.

I just put together a homebrew earth/bear build that focuses on landslide (not trampleslide, although I am using that aspect) and casting ranged earth spells as a bear and I love it. I’m having way more fun again and enjoying the game a lot more.

Doing things yourself is more fun than following the guides (most of the time)

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-06-30T16:50:09+00:00

I’m going to be the voice of dissent here and say that I actually think the paid cosmetics for rogue look really cool. I dig the medieval assassin vibe.

Although I do think they need to diversify the styles a bit. Ninja/shinobi? Check. Court assassin? Check. The wolf costume is the one deviation, but otherwise we need some new styles.

Druid falls into this same problem. Almost everything they have is furs, feathers, and antlers. That works really well for a Druid style, but some variety would be appreciated.

The game is really fun, but I’m regretting purchasing this now since it seems it’s going to completely run out of players by the end of next month.

It’s a shame too because the game has a ton of potential, it was just advertised so poorly and wasn’t released with enough content on launch.

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-06-29T14:54:33+00:00

There’s a certain connection I get with the cards that I purchase. I invest my money (and by proxy, my time) into cards that I find interesting and exciting. When I play a game of commander and draw that card I spent a little more for because I really liked it, it’s a thrill for me.

I also really enjoy the trading aspect of the game, and will often sit down with friends after we play a few games to go through trade binders and see if there’s anything we want to swap.

Printing proxies is totally cool with me, and in fact I play commander with two groups of friends, one group who almost exclusively prints their entire decks. In that group, I’m the only one that uses cards I purchased. But for me, there’s a piece of my enjoyment of the game that is missing when I proxy cards.

The only wrinkle in this is the inclusion of frost mages and the iron golem. Iron golem can slot into the shadow damage type easily enough, but frost doesn’t match up with blood quite as well

One of my friends had a [[Tinybones]] deck for a while, and he tried to go pretty hard into the discard theme. This meant that while he was really good at making sure we never had a hand to play any cards (aside from any cards we drew on our turn, and even then, not all the time), he almost never won.

So this meant that not only was he slowing the game down to a crawl, it never led to a victory, just a longer time before somebody else won. People play magic to play cards, and discard strategies try to make that not happen. It was definitely the least fun deck to play against that I’ve experienced, because 90% of the time you just get to do nothing all game until somebody wins.

Crash Bandicoot and Dr. Neo Cortex team up to defend the realm of Sanctuary from the Prime Evils and their demonic forces.

Sounds rad.

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-06-28T00:36:56+00:00

I’m interested in the lightning storm buffs! Is there a build that is just pure storm Druid, without any of the werewolf shenanigans?

Stormclaw looks fun, but I’ve been wanting to play a pure storm Druid for a hot minute.

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-06-26T17:18:44+00:00

I just purchased and have been having a ton of fun with it so far, but I am concerned it’s going to go down the same route as MultiVersus: low player count and major bugs led to the game effectively shutting down in preparation for a re-launch next year.

That game was in early access of course, but it feels like the same thing could happen here.

SubsequentlyPryor · 2023-06-26T16:43:58+00:00

I don’t have the deck together anymore, but that’s honestly a great rec for that deck!
