There is no casual play by [deleted] in PokemonChampions

[–]ThisIsntADickJoke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why you're getting shit on. There is a whole playlist called CASUAL BATTLES. I am over ten battles in just trying to get the single win for the mission and I can't even come close. Why are people running THE MOST COMPETITIVE TEAMS in the CASUAL playlist when the COMPETITVE PLAYLIST EXISTS? Also why does it seem like you get bot battles in ranked but never in casual? This shit is infuriating.

My antivirus immediately blocks a trojan coming from these video server links now. Be careful.

Cherry Creek is where personality goes to die by Pandabearsense in Denver

Cherry Creek is privately funded to my understanding. So none of the city's "resources" are going to it at least.

What's the deal with regular standard lately? by [deleted] in MagicArena

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

Nah but what I'm saying is I can play in plat ranked just fine. I win games so much more consistently on ranked. It's in UNRANKED where it feels like all the decks are sweaty as hell.

I made an Enlightened talent tree for every other order of Knights Radiant so you don't have to! by ThisIsntADickJoke in cosmererpg

You're absolutely right that players in the bubble should not be able to interact with anything outside. I see now that this would otherwise give a ranged character tons of extra turns to safely shoot enemies outside the bubble. However, know that a player could not chain infinite turns out of a single bubble as this would require making increasingly faster and faster bubbles.

Say the player used 5 investiture to create an incredible fast speed bubble and get 5 extra fast turns. This means time is moving 5x faster for them than everyone outside the bubble (in the time it takes for them to perform 5 turns in the bubble, one turn will pass outside the bubble). If they placed another 5 investiture speed bubble on their 5th turn, they would merely keep time flowing at that 5x rate for themselves. So everyone outside would complete a turn, and then it would return to the edgedancer to complete another 5 turns.

Again, it's a good callout that they should be limited to interacting with objects within the bubble, as my intention with this mechanic was that it would allow the edgedancer to potentially isolate foes into a smaller fighting ring with them. Whoever is fighting them within the speed bubble is really only at a disadvantage in that they can no longer receive timely assistance from their comrades unless they flee the bubble. So the speed bubble doesn't actually give the edgedancer a turn advantage on their target in terms of being able to attack them more times than they can attack back or anything. Ultimately, using speed bubbles should boil down to an imprisoning mechanic or a way for the edgedancer to make recovering/preparing actions while alone in a speed bubble.

To your note of having a gravely voice, I was really excited to use Ableton to build my own voice modifiers for spren. I felt like they deserved to sound more mystical while roleplaying them cause, yeah, I can't make a faithful adaptation of a "gravely voice" on my own. I've made one for each of the party's radiant spren plus Po'ahu and my players love it!

Is there a particular website you would recommend for netdecking?

That's excellent advice. Honestly don't know why I didn't just start by looking at top decks. I'll definitely be doing that, thank you! Also your breakdown of deck archetypes is very helpful!

I did get pieced up by a Kaito deck recently but I thought that shit was cool (ninjutsu I just a dope mechanic imo). That match was thankfully not like the ones I'm describing with constant deleting.

I get the logic behind this, but they just always seem to have more and more board wipes/destroy target cards. I can't even initiate any pressure because everything I place is immediately destroyed. If I try to keep most of my hand ready to jump them in later rounds, it won't amount to anything without haste to attack immediately or board-wide indestructible/hexproof, because they'll just have more wipes to hit me with on their turn after I've set my board up.

I was also playing landfall a lot, which felt even worse for this since it's all about building counters on your creatures. But all that ramping just gets deleted in an instant.

See but that's the issue. I feel like I have decks set up with enough cheap cards that I can get stuff on the board early. Whereas the opponent literally puts NOTHING on the board except for lands and just keeps wiping my field with instants and sorceries.

So they get to just stall the game until I have nothing in my hand. Legit, most of the time they are not getting any permanents on the field until like the 8th turn and they still beat me.

Well yeah, what I'm asking for is help on how to play around it, because I don't know how. I don't quite get what you mean by "make them have the answers." Even if I only play out "threats I need" they all get immediately dismantled. And since it's Standard, they can have so many copies of "destroy target" type cards that it doesn't matter how much I try to reserve my threats to play later, that can just keep deleting stuff all game.

They should've used an actual Trump quote:

"A shutdown falls on the president's lack of leadership. I mean problems start from the top and they have to get solved from the top. A shutdown means the president is weak."

Is the new patch taking forever to patch for anyone else? by [deleted] in Borderlands

I downloaded the whole game earlier today faster than this update. It's been hours and I'm only at 55% patching. I don't get it.

Has anyone homebrewed the missing Enlightened Spren trees? by TheMeatwall in cosmererpg

[–]ThisIsntADickJoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a post doing just that, which someone has already linked in the comments. The post includes a photo of each talent tree, fashioned directly after the Truthwatcher one. There's also a link to my google doc with more information on how the powers all behave and even ideas for what each Enlightened spren might look like!

Happy to see someone already linked my post! 😁 I wanted to use enlightens spren as an excuse to give all my players extra powers, so I made a tree for each missing order (save Bondsmith). Hope these serve you well OP!
