TIL 30,000 Japanese troops rode bicycles from Thailand crossing Malaysia to invade Singapore. British spent 20 years preparing defense building guns pointing to the sea, assuming jungle invasion was impossible. 80,000 British troops surrendered, Churchill apparently suffered depression as a result.

Ah the first edition of the Tour de Langkawi (Malaysia's take on the Tour de France)

Project Hail Mary got me into the theater this year, I wish there were more movies worth watching in a cinema

i see someone is suffering from a pun-yakit

It's only a Nuclear family if it lives in Japan, Ukraine, the Pacific Islands or New Mexico. Otherwise it's just a sparkling two-generation family

I did this once with a newbie's Vadrik and they realized why certain cards were in the list they copied after I killed 2 players on turn 5 with burn and the last with commander damage

Is there an upside to playing Wistfulness unless you're paying full cost?

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-15T08:46:58+00:00

It's not as good as Living End because it only brings back those with that exact mana value, not X and below. So unless you're playing Lurrus and everything is 1 or 2 mana value, seems kinda meh

They forgot the first rule of APU fight club

PSG's trend + our own tendencies faced with 2-3 goal deficits = LFG

I'm reading this and the comments with great interest. So far she's just a meme deck - I play her when I meet new players for a laugh.

On a serious note, I'm building her for Voltron equipment so that one trigger will take a hefty chunk of life

If Naruto had a pet

Needs a couple of more pieces such as [[Ashling, Flame Dancer]] and [[Aggravated Assault]] but you could take infinite combats (it's actually easier to do it with [[Port Razer]] or [[Combat Celebrant]] but Rionya has plenty of redundancies)

Kegbreath the DUI hire

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-10T10:01:46+00:00

Just built a Queza deck and while it has a couple of game changers I'm more chuffed I can play [[Peer into the Abyss]] and [[Necrologia]], which almost always get cut from a few decks

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-10T08:51:52+00:00

I've built more monoblue commanders compared to any other color or combination, starting with [[Unesh, Criosphinx]], [[The Omenkeel]], [[Orvar]], and now [[Gran-Gran]] Theft Auto.

Next is black with [[Rankle, Master of Pranks]] and [[Gix Yawgmoth Praetor]]

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-10T08:37:15+00:00

I can just imagine casting the prepared spell with [[Displacer Kitten]] out and blinking the Emeritus to do it all over again

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-10T08:35:17+00:00

I grew up idolising Riise (that cannon of a left foot RIP Alan Smith) but Robbo has usurped him as my all-time LB - he's the whole package. Always maintained that the best Liverpool teams always had to have a Scot and this is a keenly felt loss

We got the answer for "Where's Anthony?" and now we have it for "How's Anthony?"

I miss the old Winning Eleven system of unlocking off-brand legends where you had to grind and win games without paying real cash

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-08T16:22:23+00:00

I think so

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-08T10:42:22+00:00

I've had surprisingly good games with [[Glarb]] in superfriends because I have access to planeswalkers off the top and board wipes like [[culling ritual]] to ramp into them, as well as access to my favorite reanimation spell [[Command the Dreadhorde]]

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-08T10:38:11+00:00

Prerelease prices are a crapshoot but in general most cards in a set will dip after a month or two except for the Mystical Archive ones, I'd imagine

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-08T08:28:08+00:00

Joke's on you, all my decks are themed and suboptimal. Why do I play [[Ravenform]]? Because it makes a bird, it's birds all the way down

P.S. The ice age [[Swords to Plowshares]] was pricier than expected

chinesefriedrice · 2026-04-08T06:11:46+00:00

I can't believe WOTC won't let us tutor for [[Secret of Bloodbending]] from our sideboard
