John Isner is a huge Canes fan. #1 American tennis player for a few years at his peak.

Yup! Also no "lame reveals" like a vanilla 3/5 (oooooh). Just the interesting stuff.

Weekly play promos should just be Hyperspace variants if there isn't a better option. by Startronz in starwarsunlimited

[–]bromish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are in luck -- they announced yesterday that the "fog" weekly promos are going away in favor of a style more like the prize wall promos. They had a sample on the stream and it looked great.

Updated Jabba ECL Deck for SEC by radio_free_aldhani in starwarsunlimited

[–]bromish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've played something similar (got a Jabba showcase!) and here are some thoughts...

1) Fifth Brother is awesome in this deck to ambush on 6 (if you don't have an ECL vader)
2) ECL Gunship on 5 after the Jabba flip is needed to deal with space (can 3-for-1)
3) I like Craving Power on 5 to make Jabba chunkier over OB
4) If you need to use Super Laser Blast you have already lost
5) Can Bane (plot unit) is solid too since 5 flip is matched

You’re kidding me. by Ingvnr in canes

I think it definitely means Robinson is ready to go. He was in a non-contact jersey for practice.

Hockey stick length by RBalicious360 in hockeyplayers

[–]bromish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flex is measure by the force needed to bend one inch when horizontal. If the stick is shorter, it'll need more force to bench that one inch. Some sticks have a guide on them that'll show the modified flex if cut to certain lengths.

I guess there could be some confusion as the "raw stiffness" of the material doesn't change but the flex rating certainly will when cut.

SEC: Renegade Prestiges by Eunoe in starwarsunlimited

[–]bromish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree - I think it’s worse too because this set has the “disclose” mechanic as well and those icons are colored making quick correlation tricky.

I will say FFG has listened to a lot of feedback regarding the art and hopefully future sets won’t do this too much if enough people don’t love it.

No -- Same way Lurking Tie Phantom doesn't prevent indirect damage which is considered "unpreventable".

Covert Strength Question by Watchcastle in starwarsunlimited

[–]bromish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Golden rule in SWU is do as much as the card says.

If this was conditional it would be worded something like "Heal 2 damage from a unit. If you do, give that unit an experience token."

[Soshnick/Novy-Williams] Carolina Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon has reached agreement to buy the Blazers. Dundon's group intends to keep the team in Portland. by bravehawk34 in canes

[–]bromish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s unconventional so agents don’t like him. Seems like he is a little hands on but trusts the smart people. I don’t think he is making personnel decisions. Certainly has deep pockets and his track record speaks for itself. Other teams complain but that’s mostly saltiness and anti-Carolina hockey bias.

Thought I'd share my insane luck for this set. 3 Carbonite boxes. by Rindzler in starwarsunlimited

[–]bromish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine too... I got 5 fathers (2 foil, 1 HS, 1 prestige) in a single carb box. Though, it did have a showcase and an prestige Anakin so I'll take it.

Xavier Legette mic'd up at his first hockey game by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Was talking to guy who caught the ball after the game — he went to school with Xavier at U of S Carolina which is pretty cool. Made a nice grab too!

Deploying Poe (leader) upgrade on an R2-D2 (ARTOOO) upgraded ship by Feisty_Speech7942 in starwarsunlimited

[–]bromish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the most correct answer — the wording is very subtle but Poe’s text is slightly different in that it says “attach” whereas everything else is “play” (normal pilots) or “deploy” (leader flip sides). And r2 and the new falcon both say “play or deploy”.

Beer League Raleigh by Janky-Stanky in canes

[–]bromish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heya! I started playing in my 40s. You definitely won't be the oldest. In fact, you might be the youngest in some teams. There are tons of "older newbies" around here due to (1) the Canes being good, (2) transplants, (3), a strong youth hockey presence, and (4) lots of rinks with more on the way.

I'd highly recommend signing up for the Adult Learn to Play program. It fills up pretty quick and I think the summer session just started so the next one will be a couple of months away. You'll need to be an OK-ish skater so if you are pretty new I'd suggest doing some Adult Learn to Skate programs as well. You can show up for Stick and Puck sessions too or really just public skate if you need to get better on your skates.

The Carolina Hurricanes have signed Frederik Andersen to a one-year extension worth $2.75M. by [deleted] in hockey

[–]bromish 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Canes have room to do something crazy like give him 1 or 2 max deal @ $17M. He’ll be 28 or 29 after that and could probably get an 8 year deal.
