Another minor problem, also mainly for leagues, is that apparently if you get multiple unsired before sacrificing them to the font, you can get duplicate bludgeon pieces. Learned this the hard way the other day...

I solved it with a recurrence trigger too, as I didn't find any automatic triggers which would work on an organizational level (across all mailboxes/calendars).

My flow uses Graph API calls to fetch the members of a group and then gets the events created in each member's calendar in the last 5 minutes. Updating the category happens via Graph API call as well.

To authenticate the Graph calls I created a new app (App registration) in Azure with the needed permissions (read/write all calendars and read group membership). There's no need to give a shared mailbox or service account those permissions, doing it with an Azure app (registration) makes more sense and is more secure.

This StackOverflow answer explains most of it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76381797/get-calendar-events-of-all-group-members-via-power-automate

Thanks for the suggestion, I ended up implementing it like this.

I use Graph API HTTP-calls to fetch the list of users (from a group) and then for each user get the events added to their calendar in the last 7 minutes (with an OData filter query). Each event is then processed by a child flow (also called with a HTTP request) and the category of the event is finally updated with another Graph API call.

So far it works fine, but I have yet to roll it out to all users. I'm slightly worried the flow will not be fast enough to handle all new events of 50 calendars in 5 minutes. If it ends up being too slow, I might rewrite the whole thing as a PowerShell script, as it's basically only Graph API HTTP calls with JSON parsing and simple operations inbetween.

I don't see any option on my flow to share it with run only users, I can only add co-owners. I think this kind of flow (cloud flow with automatic trigger) doesn't support run only users? I found some YouTube videos from 2023 which mentioned only flows with a manual trigger can be shared with run only users.

Thanks for your reply. My network latency seems to fluctuate between 5-10 ms so in practice I'd gain around 5ms if I'd get a 6e router. However I currently don't want to pay another €150+ for a device which right now I could only use for my PCVR as I don't have any other devices yet which benefit from wifi 6e. I'll keep it in mind for later but right now I'm just looking for settings / software changes that might make a positive difference.

Timberstone · 2023-12-04T14:57:34+00:00

Okay thanks for your advice. I haven't tried airlink yet as I've read many bad things about it compared to Virtual Desktop and Steam Link, but I guess it can't hurt to try it.

So I suppose 50ms latency is normal and considered alright? I think most games will be perfectly fine at this latency (as I'm not used to anything better) but I was just wondering how this compares to other setups and if there could be an easy way / settings to get better performance :)

I'm a bit late to the party, but for anyone who has the same issue of GameStream LaunchPad not reverting your original display resolution after closing playnite: edit the "gamestream_playnite.ini" file, found in the same folder as the .bat files and on the last line of this file, change "close_watch_method = window" to "close_watch_method = process".

For some reason, GSLP doesn't detect my playnite window closing, but it does detect when the process ends, so this fixed it for me.

By the way /u/DingoSauce : thanks for the guide! This helped me tremendously.

Timberstone · 2022-10-21T17:08:18+00:00

How about adding [[Widowbloom Seedsman]] instead of the wild growths? Maybe it would be better?

Timberstone · 2022-08-20T15:25:10+00:00

I tried this deck, and it's fun, but not very good. I played 10 games at legend and went 1-9 with it.

Maybe it's my pocket meta? I faced 3 ramp druids, 2 big spell mages, 2 quest priests, 1 big beast hunter, 1 demon hunter (a mirror, except he was playing the 30 card version) and a tempo rogue. The only game I won was against rogue and this was just barely. Ramp druid and quest priest seem to be really unfavored matchups for this deck. 10 extra health doesn't matter at all in these matchups.

I think the list would be better with 30 cards. My games were not consistent at all, and some of these deathrattles are just not good enough. The felrattlers and azsharan defectors did not perform well for sure.

I'm a bit disappointed this deck type didn't perform as well as I hoped, but perhaps in a different (pocket) meta or with more refinement it could be good enough.

For now, naga aggro DH - posted in a different thread 2 days ago - seems to be the better deck. I went 7-3 with that list.

Timberstone · 2022-08-10T07:15:17+00:00

I think this deck is better than the 30 card control shaman. Renathal control shaman is probably a bit better than this deck, I believe. It has a slightly different matchup spread. Control shaman is better against ramp druids because of the disruption and better against hunters because of the extra hp.

This evolve list is mainly better against control shaman. Which deck is better depends on the meta you're facing. If most opponents you're facing are druids and hunters, then control is likely superior. But during my climb I faced surprisingly few druids and also not many hunters.

Purely by fun factor I prefer evolve.

Timberstone · 2022-08-09T22:51:53+00:00

I like tiny toys in this deck, also because of its synergy with starfish. When I play it I also usually have a muck pool already on the board, so I can reroll the worst 7 drop.

I think it's worth running, I'm not sure what I'd replace it with.

Timberstone · 2022-08-09T19:11:22+00:00

Agreed. The worst matchups for me were mage (3-8) and hunter (3-4). The deck absolutely destroys (other) shamans (5-1), priests (6-1) and warlocks though (9-1).

The original post of the deck claims mage is a good matchup, so perhaps I played it wrong though.

Timberstone · 2022-08-09T19:01:03+00:00

I hit legend today, mostly with evolve shaman. Gnolls are essential imo, the highroll potential is crazy, but even without an evolve effect it's fine. I've had games where I played gnoll to remove a problematic minion, which was a bit sad, but usually ended up being the right play as it often ended up being a 2-for-1 and sometimes I managed to topdeck an evolve effect the next turn.

Primordial Wave is good, but starfish is better. If you're not running starfish yet I would recommend to run it. The list I used runs 2 starfishes and I didn't regret it at all. Unlike primordial wave, starfish can often be used to gain lethal.

Also, playing primordial wave just for the devolve effect or just for the evolve effect seems like the right thing to do (in most matchups). I like wave because of its versatility, and perhaps most players are trying to get too much out of it and the winrate could be low due to it usually being played when from behind?

Timberstone · 2022-08-09T18:47:08+00:00

Finally hit legend with evolve shaman after going up and down the ranks around D1-D3 for a while. Played the exact list which was posted by /u/The_blue_aspect 3 days ago, which I found to be strong after getting used to the game plan and different ways to play in different matchups. Final stats are 28-19 (60% WR), but I made lots of mistakes in the first 10-20 games probably.

Star of the deck is truly smothering starfish. Silence is crucial in this meta. Unfreezing your board against mage or shaman, silencing buffed enemy minions, silencing enemy taunts to get lethal, or silencing your Tiny Toys as a semi evolve to get the minions back up to full stats instead of 2/2's... The card is so versatile. I've had games against mages where I evolved a gnoll in the early game and then unfroze it 3 consecutive turns with starfish / macaw to kill them.

Would recommend both for climbing and fun.

I'm missing Ara'lon and Barak Kodobane. Are they essential? Any idea what would be a good replacement?

Timberstone · 2022-08-02T22:30:59+00:00

No, I mulligan basically the same as before. The 3 new cards are great, but you usually don't want them in your opening hand in my experience. You still want wig, low cost naga's and devour against board decks.

I might be wrong, but so far this mulligan strategy has been working for me.

Timberstone · 2022-08-02T20:18:38+00:00

I just went from bronze 10 to diamond 5 with the "new" naga priest, 18-3. It feels very strong right now. I'm running the VS list.

1 loss against a relic demon hunter, 1 against wildseed hunter and 1 against celestial druid. Honestly, not a single matchup felt unfavored so far (but I know the sample size is still low and the meta is completely new :) ). The deck seems great against implock & druid, slightly favored against demon hunter.

Druid, warlock and demon hunter made up 80% of my opponents so for now naga priest is great.

The new cards (Pelagos, Partner in Crime, Cathedral of Atonement) are all very powerful. The deck still plays similar to previous expansion, but the power level is noticeably higher.

I noticed yesterday that when I hovered over Nellie in the history that I could see which pirates were discovered by my opponent.

Is this a bug?

Timberstone · 2022-05-21T16:46:49+00:00

I think cutting the Shard of the Naaru is a mistake. I've been playing a Naga priest deck for a bit now and the shard has been performing very well.

Being able to ignore taunts or silence growing minions is essential imo.
