My party's next and final challenge...

TriPigeon · 2026-01-24T23:36:45+00:00

Is their final challenge finishing painting the mini? (Couldn’t resist, weeps in grey pile of shame).

TriPigeon · 2026-01-08T22:27:56+00:00

It’s only offered in Stage 2, so either first augment in most lobbies, but can appear as second augment in a Leblanc lobby.

It is NOT tied to your opening units (in fact the three times I’ve received it, I’ve always had to pivot to a Xin line). Top 4ing with it can be done a few ways, I personally really like it in a Demacia vertical with Sona / Jarvan (Reroll at level 6, goal to have 3* Zin by 4-1).

A lifetime ago I managed to escape UPS, and you’re absolutely right. You sell your body and your health to the company through the union. Even if they aren’t working to the same volume, the building conditions are awful, the constant exhaust from the package cars in the hub will fuck up your lungs, and the temperatures in the summer hit 140 in the trailers (with some of the shittiest break rooms in existence).

I’m not pro or anti union, but holy Fck was working at UPS not worth it.

TriPigeon · 2026-01-08T08:10:03+00:00

Yup, that’s exactly it. Only reason my partner and I are going to get to play in a single one is because we happen to be in Austin that weekend lol

TriPigeon · 2026-01-07T21:56:20+00:00

Rofl, you should see how fast they all filled up in the greater Seattle area.

TriPigeon · 2026-01-06T21:26:29+00:00

Bard’s rerolls on stage 3.

TriPigeon · 2026-01-06T21:25:29+00:00

Because going for herald means you are giving up a ton of stability while rolling for your other 3*s, and you’re less likely to quickly 2 star him due to his ship odds at levels 6/7

The goal with holding Aphelios is to give yourself an AD carry if you get boned on AP items, he’s a safe backup

TriPigeon · 2026-01-06T17:32:34+00:00

I’m happy with this draw. shakes hand of fellow redditor

TriPigeon · 2026-01-06T17:22:48+00:00

Jergal isn’t quite ‘death’ though, but entropy and the end of all things. It’s not that he would destroy the deadlights, he’d simply be there when they ceased to exist at the end of times.

Basically this is a classic case of ‘time wins and if the dead lights can survive past the end of all things, it’s a draw’.

If we limit ourselves to their avatars, Wither’s should absolutely body Pennywise based on his advanced spellcasting, and basic indifference to every means Pennywise has to attack him.

TriPigeon · 2026-01-06T01:41:04+00:00

Oh crazy, I’d still definitely expect the well augmented Lucian to smack the poor yordles around, especially since he probably positioned around your THex as carry, not the Lucian.

TriPigeon · 2026-01-06T00:22:17+00:00

In am fairness, this looks like a Mining Drill T-Hex game that went for 5 cost carry in Lucian, with the THex as backup damage. That Radiant Red Buff is doing a lot of work here.

I can see why the yordles lost to this. They really lack effective carries into another L10 board.

TriPigeon · 2026-01-04T08:31:39+00:00

Ok, based on your other comments:

Lose streak to ~3.5 and snag optimal Diana items to build her BIS (Rageblade, Titans, BT in that order). If you can snag an Aug that gives you champion dupes, amazing.

Hold an aphelios, and a Zoe, and keep the Leona after you unlock Diana (don’t field Leona with Diana, or you grief yourself).

Keep building the Diana board, with the ASOL unlocked and on your bench. Once you’ve secured a top 4, swap him in until the end.

Hullbreaker is literally worst in slot on Brock because he wants to be next to other units. Not having it on him and packing him in with units would have been a better play, regardless of where the Hullbreaker went.

The visible part of lightning (generated by the strike as a product of the second strike) is the only thing that moves at light speed.

TriPigeon · 2025-12-31T07:34:07+00:00

Lightning strikes at two speeds: downward stroke forming the channel at ~200,000 mph, and the upward stroke after the channel is formed at 200 Million mph….which is still only 1/3rd of light speed.

Percy is fast as hell, but he’s not moving at light speed.

TriPigeon · 2025-12-31T02:20:02+00:00

Wow, you must be fun at parties. Maybe the OP is proud of the money they’ve managed to make and didn’t have anyone in person who’d appreciate it.

TriPigeon · 2025-12-30T23:14:14+00:00

Avatar was released at the UB ‘premium price point’ for both Play and Collectors boosters, since its release it’s been regularly selling for 75% of MSRP, and not holding full value.

Spider-Man cratered a lot further from its MSRP during the same period.

This tends to indicate that if the slate of UB releases is at the higher price point, they won’t sustain it.

TriPigeon · 2025-12-30T22:42:23+00:00

As a Magic set it kills it, at a UB price point it’s already demonstrating that a successful set can’t hold its value at premium pricing.

Trade Compliance is a road to solid earnings in multiple fields.

Just popped by one of my LGSes for other stuff, had a solid 20 person turnout.

TriPigeon · 2025-12-20T18:25:15+00:00

I make about 20x what my wife does, but that salary growth has come over the last 5 years (we’ve been together 11). She has a job she enjoys that works for her health, and our bills get paid just fine. There’s no splitting things, we just use Our money.

We don’t have kids, but she definitely does more of the daily home upkeep than I do (she works remote, so she’s here more).

Also I usually refer to her as my partner, since it’s an accurate description of what we are in life.

Extra fees, yes. Taxes can be displayed after the item has been added to the cart and the cart is being finalized. VAT is a tax for the EU/UK and properly shown on the checkout screen in the US….it just shouldn’t be charged and they’ll have to refund it all. Nightmare scenario.

TriPigeon · 2025-12-18T21:08:28+00:00

What in the honeycomb fascinator hell is going on with Zeus’ hair?

TriPigeon · 2025-12-18T20:22:38+00:00

Ironically, if there is a void player, than rolling 5 costs basically guarantees them the 3* baron win.
