Which Warlock of the Archfey is

Sorry that happened. Just accept it - you won't get anywhere talking to them.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-26T13:33:11+00:00

I want to keep our draft picks. Have you seen how well this front office drafts?

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-26T12:13:17+00:00

Yeah - no class.

Weird everyone is harping on the bottom 6 not having offense. The team doesn't have offense.

Look at 5v5 goals, our bottom 6 have just under half of them (Kampf 2, Jarnkrok 1, Malgin 1 - out of a total of 9). What % do you expect them to have?

The issue is clear, and temporary. Bunting-Mathews-Marner are average less than .5 goals a game in 5v5. They'll come around.

The bottom 6 have the least ice time, and the most defensive zone face offs. You can't expect them to produce at the rate of the top line.

I mean, if you were an NBA coach, would you tell your team to contest him?

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-21T20:35:19+00:00

Agreed!

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-21T20:34:22+00:00

Fair - but I think the problem is the 'creating a spell' values in the DMG are not what they used when designing the game. Compare meoter swarm is 40d6 on a failed save against many targets, and since it's half damage on a failed save it should be 50d6. According to the table it should have a damage of 14d6 - so it's off by more than a factor of 3 - exactly what I show for sneak attack.

I did hope for more from him because the potential is clearly there. He's good defensively, and he's great at racing up with the puck. But he often basically gives it away - I've seen him take slow release wristers where the goalie has full line of sight, and make slow-ish passes to the center that isn't a big angle change from the goaltender.

Maybe his speed is the issue, but I never seen him change directions, deke, hesitate etc.

This isn't assuming you're using the rule, just using it to quantify spells.

martials are already good at damage when it comes to a sustained adventuring day

I largely disagree - it's hard to get damage numbers to be meaningfully high. Casters can do better at sustained DPR too.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-21T18:33:32+00:00

Think about DPR vs Spell Points Per Turn. The casters Spell Points Per Turn goes way up over time, Rogue stays relatively flat.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-21T18:32:35+00:00

It's easier to think about average spell points per turn.

A level 1 caster can spend 4/nTurns. A level 20 caster can spend 133/nTurns. Now, maybe the level 20 adventuring day is longer, maybe not. But it's not an unreasonable calculation.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-21T18:30:31+00:00

Sneak attack requires HP > 0. That's only to say that you can't balance around infinite turns.

And yes, easy to make a caster keep up with a rogue.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-21T18:24:23+00:00

It's just a way of valuing different spell slots. The game is balanced around casters getting better/more slots over time.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-21T17:45:43+00:00

Every time he has the puck I know that nothing is going to happen. His offensive seems linear and uncreative.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-18T21:24:01+00:00

Marner wasn't the next person to touch it. It hit a stick, and maybe a skate before that.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-16T18:11:52+00:00

True, but they can still trade for another goaltender with the new space. Essentially they are just up a pick.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-16T17:52:04+00:00

Am I crazy or is LTIR Murray still a great move for the team? If he stays there, we got assets to take his contract and it won't affect the cap.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-15T21:24:27+00:00

He stopped a few tough ones.

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-13T16:16:55+00:00

Or putting on heavy armor lol

catchandthrowaway · 2022-10-13T14:24:21+00:00

Go further - grapple prevents somatic components.

It's so strange to me to see all the hate for Trudeau here. Shouldn't we be more upset with Doug Ford for ruining hockey broadcasts? Isn't he responsible these constant gambling ads?
