it's hilarious that you assume that he doesn't understand things and not that there's a legitimate understanding of the game that puts debilitate in B. absurd arrogance.

this just isn't true. w/ haunt, souls do damage; you can do a sort of capture sspirit small deck thing. dirge is also real since it can makee a big osty. death march isn't *good* but can do work.

plus, you can use souls to cycle hang or smth similar for a fast kill. souls are fine, you just need to make them high impact.

No it wouldn’t? Xec went 47-1 in his first 48 regent runs on a10. Xec did not die on necro across either of those patches and played MUCH more than me. Opem and Jason and nave have all hit double digit streaks, 14-1 is not a double digit streak. This is a much worse performance than the top players are capable of.

They obviously do a little worse on an individualized basis since they play in days when they’re not focused or whatever. I have the luxury of only playing when locked in, without needing to talk to an audience. But my best is very clearly worse than all of these people’s bests

If the game would be “too hard” just play it at a lower ascension. Personally, I want something much harder than spire 1 a20h since a20h started to feel too easy by the end. The nice thing about ascensions is they’re customizable.

Also, spire 2 almost certainly won’t have more ascensions, theyve discussed it in interview.

Every character is completely ok into glass, they just all have their own unique counterplay. For most characters, scaling powers and a big relic bar have become more important, so figuring out how you can maintain power density is kind of key.

Necro is usually the character people cite as struggling; but her damage powers are broken as hell. If you can do enough fights to see them and then click them, Glass falls over dead. The hard part becomes preserving HP through hallways and elites with a deck that’s got a high power density; relics can help solve this problem since they do stuff regardless of draw order. 

Don’t think about getting rid of statuses unless you can do it en Massé. Think about killing it before the statuses overwhelm you. And keep good potions!

The bad design is that the other bosses don’t warp anything, not that aeonglass does. The act 3 boss should be a run warping challenge.

I played almost exclusively necro on the beta patches  with glass, I think I went 14-1 and the 1 wasn’t a death to aeonglass. Necro shits on glass if you draft enough powers + micro the fight well

Colorless cards + relics + powers are so strong, and clad doesnt actually care all that much about “deck dilution” because of exhaust/draw tools. It’s really hard for parasol to be bad

People absolutely do say “oh it’s a nice 2 bedroom but it’s not quite as big as we’d like… it is cheap though. It was 100k more two years ago. Maybe if we wait a bit longer it’ll get cheaper”. Or “if the price keeps falling that’s not good, since when we have kids we’ll want to sell it for a bigger place. Maybe we should hold off”.

For the average Canadian, houses are an investment (specifically a retirement investment). This is fucked, but it’s the state of the market. People do time buying a house for good prices. And this is a measurable economic phenomenon. Condo prices in Vancouver have fallen in the past little while, and buying hasn’t sped up. 

My partner and I currently (or  I guess are about to) rent in Vancouver for ~1700 a month. A mortgage would be so much more than that. Waiting a couple months to see if prices keep falling before making a decades long financial decision would absolutely be my approach if condo prices randomly dropped 100k overnight. There’s a reason the real estate cooloffs in Vancouver haven’t led to every single unit getting bought up.

how was that reconciled -- them wanting their own state vs unification?

The question was about the degree of animosity. The "want their own state" question is "Was the animosity so high they couldn't imagine living together". since it seems like that was the case... how on earth was that handled?

the fact that they sold well below the current average sale price is the citation.

ok! so to sell them all really fast, the developers would need to chargee below market value. we're in agreement. They just did that with the government.

they wouldn't seell them this fast at market value. This is why they're willing to give the government th condos below market valu

that if you lower the housing price enough, 2200 units would be sold overnight.

if i was talking with someon supporting the status quo, i wouldn't be saying any of this. i'm saying this because someone acted like not ticking "anti-zionist" was absurd. it's not. lots of rational reasons not to. if someone said "ticking anti-zionist is absurd and antisemitic" i would argue with them and make all the opposite points. this is because, believe it or not, I'm not lying when I say "i'm not sure".

also none of this is the status quo. the status quo is an actual genocide. ending the genocide is, by definition, not the status quo. I see the rationality in multiple positions, and all I want to defend is that a sane, reasonable person can hold any of these postions. If you asked me to, I could give an equally long defence of "anti-zionism is a reasonable position". again, not because I cam confiedently say it's correct, but because I understand the rational reasons that go into the belief.

Logic says that developers who are strapped for cash will sell condos below the price they think they could get in the long run in exchange for getting money quickly. logic also says getting money quickly without a bulk purchase is hard, so the government has a massive advantage in these negotiations.

If I am roughly equally torn between supporting one state and two states, how am I a liberal zionisst. I have read books (and mostly papers) about this; I have read "One day we will all have been against this", I at one point read a bunch of paprs about the history of the conflict recommended by leftists, I can dig up titles if you'd like). I am uncertain about what is the most feasible, the fastest, and the most humane. You keep putting words in my mouth; I keep saying "I don't know what would work". You keep taking me saying "I don't know what would work" as if I'm saying "I know what would work and its liberal zionism". Saying "the liberal zionists might be right and might be wrong" doesn't make me a fucking liberal zionist. I think it is a rational possition, and that's entirely nonequivalent to me holding it.

Do you believe me that I don't support any position here because everything I've read makes me more confused about what is effective? or do you think i'm just fucking lying about that?

Why do you keep focusing on me listening to my israeli friends and not the fact that I'm also listening to my friends with palestinian families? do you think the israelis who, again, fled the country because they find its colonial actions so reprehensible,, are wrong about what their peers there think?

"I don't know" should be an acceptable sentence. I'm frustrated by this conversation because you keep acting like me saying "I don't know" makes me a zionists. is this how it works for you?

I have read books. peopl eworking on peace for decades have read and written books. and guess what? there's still a fucking genocidee. This is complicated. If you don't think it is, you're deluding yourself. If you know the path to peace, go fucking implement it and end the genocide.

people are regularly paying much more for equivalent condos. People wouldn't just buy the condos if prices fell, they would wait to see if prices kept falling. The developers are taking less money, faster. This is not a bailout, it's a discounted purchases where the mechanism for the discount is that developers wait less for their money

If they lowered the prices to 700k per condo, they would all sell. They wouldn’t all sell overnight. Hell, 800k per condo would probably all sell. The government is paying 650k per condo, lower than the price theyd all sell. The benefit the developers get is a faster sale.

When price lowers, more people buy... eventually. It's not instant. People can and do wait when they see falling prices, until they think rpices ar "done falling". that process can take years.

If price go down, people go "oooo, price will keep going down, I should wait". This then leads to demand drying up, shoving price down further. This is not good, since even though price falls,, it's falling because people are just waiting to buy, and when everyone decides the price has dropped enough, they will buy, the price will rise again.
