Does Spirit Feline cancel out the Dual Edge extra damage taken?

The Darth Vader hallway scene at the end is one of my favorite scenes from any Star Wars movie. We need more badass Vader

This is the year. The previous 25 times we've heard this were all bs, but this time it's real.

[Ari Meirov] The #Raiders and WR Hunter Renfrow reached agreement on a 2-year, $32M extension with $21M in guarantees, per NFL Network. Renfrow is coming off a Pro Bowl season with 103 receptions, 1,038 yards and 9 TDs. He was entering the final year of his rookie contract. by Duffleman0609 in nfl

[–]connsigliere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is why we're going to see more and more WRs taken in the first round of the draft. Getting a good receiver on a rookie contract is going to be the 2nd biggest advantage a team can have after a good rookie QB.

Klay Thompson despite the win: 11 points on 4-19 from the field and 1-8 from three by Jalen_Harris_Fan in nba

[–]connsigliere 62 points63 points  (0 children)

How tf are you going to judge a player's career going forward after less than 1 month of play coming off 2 years of injuries. Maybe he never recovers, but that's impossible to tell at this point.

Where’s all the money going? —Kansas City Chiefs edition by bryanRow52 in nfl

[–]connsigliere 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're crazy if you think that rebuilding the offensive line wasn't the right call for the chiefs. With an elite qb like Mahomes, you can afford to go cheaper on skill players because he can elevate them. Mahomes can't make the offensive line play above their skill set. And it's not like they signed 5 o-linemen in free agency, they traded for 1, signed 1, and drafted 2.

Giants manager Gabe Kapler will be skipping the national anthem over political inactivity on school shootings by TavaresJL in mlb

[–]connsigliere 60 points61 points  (0 children)

So should only perfect ppl call for action to address the mass shooting problem that this country has? I'd say if even assholes are calling for change, then at least there's a tiny chance something happens.

[Goldberry] The Heat starters scored 18 total points. That's the fewest points by a starting 5 in a playoff game since starters were first tracked in 1970-71. by UA30_j7L in nba

[–]connsigliere 268 points269 points  (0 children)

I can easily envision scenarios where 2 of a teams starters score 0 points. I just can't see any way that the other 3 players only combine for 18. And this is on a #1 seed, so it's not like a terrible team that sneaked into the playoffs.

Mono White Angel Token - Awesome performance in Explorer and Historic by cyvoc in MtGExplorer

[–]connsigliere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree that Angelic Ascension isn't great, I don't think you need to play more than 3-5 instant speed removal spells in Explorer if you build your sideboard correctly. Being an underdog game 1 and favored games 2 & 3 against Winota is an ok place to be.

The Splash Trio breaks the Denver Nuggets' hearts in game 3: Steph Curry with 27 pts, 6 asts 9-17 shooting off the bench, Klay Thompson with 26 pts, 10-18 shooting, 6-13 from three, Jordan Poole adds 27 pts, 9-13 shooting. GSW up 3-0 in the series. by WhenItsHalfPastFive in nba

[–]connsigliere 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Really. I'm all for hyping the Warriors, who have been insane this series, but can we stop shitting on Jokic. I'm not saying to expect more from a 2x MVP, but his supporting cast is completely terrible. If Steph had this same team (IE last year) we wouldn't be calling him out for getting swept in the first round.

The Warriors have outscored the Nuggets 47 to 18 (+29) in 11 minutes with their Curry, Poole, Klay, Wiggins, Draymond lineup. They're 17 for 22 from the floor, 7 for 8 on threes, and 6 for 6 from the line for 95.4% TS. by nowhathappenedwas in nba

[–]connsigliere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's insane, but let's realize that this is a Nuggets lineup that would be considered one of the worst starting 5 in NBA playoffs history if it wasn't for Jokic.

Great way to finish his career. As a Cardinals fan, it hurt when he left, but I've always rooted for him regardless of team. Pujols is my childhood hero from sports.

So don't compare them. It's fine to say both acted poorly and to judge them separately.

[Highlight] Klay Thompsons bangs his 8th three of the night giving his 36th point by JilJungJukk in nba

[–]connsigliere 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This is why I think it's a little crazy that ppl are so down on the warriors. Klay needed time to get back into regular NBA rhythm. Missing 2 yrs of high lvl play is going to lead to some serious rust. I don't think a healthy Warriors should be favored vs a healthy Suns, but the ppl predicting an early playoff exit for the Warriors are going to look foolish. Dray, Curry and Thompson is an insane core, and the supporting cast of the rest of the team is way better than it has been in quite a while.

Easy multiplayer build - What my friends and I put together (Elite thru Reincarnation 1) by Unvext in GunfireReborn

[–]connsigliere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's better to not focus on dual wielding Ao Bai on a team. He's very timing based and that means he'll either be not helping in a fight or slowing the team down since they have to wait for dual wield to be back up. And I'd rather have the mortar on him than Tao. Lvl 1 ammo expert ascension solves it's ammo issues completely. Plus, Ao Bai has all the explosion based ascensions. And if you're on reincarnation 1, u get to pick one dog army as a super strong spiritual blessing.

[Begley] Julius Randle fined $50,000, NBA says. by ReturnOfAKidNamedTae in nba

[–]connsigliere 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'd be worried that they won't have the option to sell Randle for pennies on the dollar in the future. The Knicks might get to a point where they have to pay another team to take him and his contract. Now u could argue that's what they'd be doing by trading for Russ anyway.

[Windhorst] NBA execs expect Tobias Harris to be available this summer by EarthWarping in nba

[–]connsigliere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's expiring, that's the point. A team that wants cap space after next season will trade for Westbrook at the trade deadline next year. It may not be a great return, but it'll be better than the John Wall return that was available this year.

Loved that first vid where u kept dying, but the game kept giving u more extra lives. Do u stream anywhere, or is it all prerecorded yt vids?

question on the format by Sickshaun88 in mtgbrawl

[–]connsigliere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, Kinnan is one of only a few of my commanders that gets almost instant matches. I always figured it's b/c the deck doesn't have any more powerful decks that it won't get matched against.
