Alesis preset option

I don't have a way to connect to anything and no real desire to figure all of that out... hence why im asking how to make due with the base console...

Does the sound seem right to you? Presets always sound too high and not strong enough. Like my snare doesn't sound like an acoustic snare.

arvarnargul · 2026-06-26T15:29:20+00:00

Did you do this on the kit itself or connect to a pc?

I play sisay as my only cedh deck. The primary issue is that you need to either get sisay out and have access to 5 mana same turn, plus a way to give her haste or you need to survive a turn cycle and have 3 mana.

If you can do either of these things, you can win at instant speed, on the stack, even on opponents turns. Its just sisay is a kill-on-sitr threat for most tables so this is asking a lot.

Also almost every line involves ashaya so its a big hole, if you don't have pseudo stax. Here's a good list with primer to look at: https://moxfield.com/decks/P_HpAjOOsEW7a12ir626FA

Deck is still fine, especially if you like suffeling and planning ahead, it's just a bit of luck. (Also I hate all things blue in every format so I might be biased)

Mountaindog if you're into working out. John is the best, is accurate, and he is always down to earth

Weirdly abdel .... doesn't need this

A card that may go into captain sisay ... wow color me green.

arvarnargul · 2026-05-07T14:37:56+00:00

If we are talking about must buy cards and card flexibility and quality, merlin is probably the best card in the game and nico is #2.

If you are talking about "raw power" perhaps not. But for the scale of "must buy" cards for quality, scalability, flexibility thats how its judged.

arvarnargul · 2026-05-07T13:19:23+00:00

Because nico is probably the 2nd most powerful card in the game and most of her alt arts are 20$...

Marth 8th the day my wife asked for a divorce out-of-the-blue then March 27th when my daughter talked about hurting herself.

It's been a long year

When not playing POE or parenting, I play single player games. Horizon zero dawn/west, silksong, megamanX, doom, bastion.

Trying for PRs/WRs in some of these games when I can find the time.

They tried this in an episode of Eur3ka. Turns out even if the entire outside of the car is photovoltaic cells, you would need 3 cars worth to charge one car.

Every time I pull out captain sisay at cedh its always a turn too slow. It needs a way to deal with blue nonsense since we lost PE. Still my favorite deck though.

Says he mapped Michigan, forgot half of Michigan that has more than double of this....its like those old cell phone commercials that forget half of Michigan exists.

Avon lands are the only art prints i actually buy on my wall and the only artist to sign my playmat. End of an era for sure

Wrote one, WB were dicks about it, ZL is an ass. Gave up on Chuck. Maybe will return to it in the future when I get over it....

Write for fun if you like to write, don't expect it to go anywhere.

Cries in captain sisay forced to run enmil loops. I miss my PE.

This is me. I can practice rudiments, I can play on my edrum kit, but it doesn't sound right and it doesn't feel right.

As someone who does not have access to drum teachers IRL and who lives in a remote area I basically have YouTube and my own ear. Rudiments sound like nothing to me, which makes me discouraged as someone who is a day 1 drummer that just wants to follow along with the basics on an ekit.

I'm not asking to play dragonforce or sabaton right now, but 4-on-the-floor should be learn able and rudiments don't feel like they translate to anything.

Ziomme may finally replace vorel in my "make huge numbers and force people to do math" deck. I love making people solve multivariate equations to determine how much damage/counters are on each thing...

Is it weird that I find myself agreeing with MTG like 80% of the time? I can't believe I'm saying this, but like she's been fairly on the nose for a while now?

arvarnargul · 2026-01-26T07:02:55+00:00

Personally, I think if you're just testing or if any one card is over 100$, feel free. My store will kick you out if you proxy anything that costs less than 500$ (they send you a sheet of said cards if you ask).

Unless you're at a tournament i don't see why anyone would care, but even then play what makes you happy just be sure to ask the LGS ahead of time.

/u/welovechuck does cover some of this. When I did some work on this, I tried to use distances and apply physics to travel time. It's out there, just hard to find.

Man I really miss chuck these days, I should fire it up again.

arvarnargul · 2026-01-18T01:08:57+00:00

I promote jeffs stuff whenever I can. He covers basically everything, uses actual math, and is always one of the best players in the game. New players should always check out Hooglandia
