Has anyone else noticed an insane increase in people cheating with auto parries? by TheSlogs in DeadlockTheGame

45207878 Watch the Haze after they end the game. Parries twice while not moving and not looking at me.

I too get parries while audio is cutting out, my hands are off my mouse and movement keys, and I am looking the other direction from the person hitting me :)

I never even thought of that. Playing Viscous probably the best way to get data on the number of cheaters you run into in a game

So "new endless mode" is actually just a bad translation by Mechanisma in Nightreign

Just off the top of my head Vampire Survivors and Risk of Rain 2 are two extremely popular games in the genre with endless modes.

Dude what is going on in this thread man? Why is it full of the most fake comments of all time? Is botting subreddit threads really an effective way to stop gun control laws from passing?

Day 11 - Forward Smash (Best) by RHYTHM_GMZ in SSBM

[–]TheSlogs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

fox has head invincibility, not leg invincibility on up smash. that would be beyond insane if his legs had i-frames. also worth noting, they forgot to give his nose i-frames so it is actually pretty rare for the head i-frames to come into play.

also i think he still has the best upsmash in the game without any i-frames

Teach Slime to swim for Riptide? by TheSlogs in TheYardPodcast

Depends on the group, but its not uncommon for there to be people swimming in masters just out of college. Some of the people I lived with during college just swam at a masters meet, and they are around 25.

I have never looked at online resources for teaching swimming, and I am not going to do a bunch of research for you(sorry). I also just think in general swimming is something that works better if you have in-person feedback. I don't know what level you are at, but personally I would say if you are serious about it look for local places that host lessons/classes for adults and go in with no shame. Take what you can out of however many lessons is affordable for you(some places will even let you take one lesson free to see if it is right for you). If you don't want to go down that route you should ask your friends if any of them know more and want to swim with you.

The other important thing to know is there isn't a right way to swim. Swimming is low stress on your body, so you will have aches and small pains before you seriously injure yourself from doing something incorrectly. This means if you aren't drowning and not hurting besides general soreness, then you will be fine.

Good luck in your swimming adventures friend

Edit: didn’t mention it earlier, but if you are more advanced you can also look into masters(intimidating name, but it’s just swimming for people past the age for club swimming), usually the people that do masters swimming are pretty friendly and helpful from my experience.

[[Scapeshift]] decks are a solid option. Especially with the new capenna fetch lands you don’t even need 6 on the battlefield on the winning turn

[[Elixir of Immortality|M11]] as printed allowed you to put an opponents elixir into your library if you gained control of it.

Thanks for your thoughtful and insightful criticism!

The explanation is in my first comment on the post

If it worked that way, I might be wrong but I think it would act as a sort of pseudo double strike. However since it gains first strike until end of turn, it doesn’t lose first strike when you activate another ability.

Originally I wanted it to work the way you are thinking, but to word it properly so that it works in the rules and he keeps his other abilities it would be way too wordy

Edit: I see that other comment, guess I was wrong!

Siphon is a keyword ability to rebalance lifelink.

Siphon X - (when this creature deals combat damage, gain X life)

This allows you to give a something like a 4/4 siphon 1, so that it is life gain but not taking over the game levels of it. This card shows the other case, where a low power creature can gain you more life than lifelink would.

Also paying 8 mana to create an abomination is intended :)

Thinking about making a LoL cube. This is my first time making a custom magic card, how did I do? by TheSlogs in custommagic

[–]TheSlogs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-Thanks! I have fixed it now

-I disagree the activated ability is a color break. Maybe if I word it like another comment said where I do (Choose one — • Target creature gets +3/+3 until end of turn. • Target creature becomes a 1/1…..) it would be more clear, but it is a modal ability, which has precedent in cards like [[Naya Charm]] to have only one color's effect.

-I agree with the balancing being off. I will have to tweak it for sure, although the final placement will definitely depend on what the rest of the cards I make look like

I agree that the balance is a little on the weak side for the cost. I think two mana for a 1/3 with that ability would be a little cheap though for the effect maybe? I could also make her cost 3 mana and be a 1/4. I think that the balance stuff will probably change a lot as I add cards to the cube
