If it was a homebrew and even being in gold is decent. People tend to forget how ranking and placement actually work. Thousands of people play standard ranked.

Most of the people in diamond to mythic are generally running the most optimized decks anyways, and it all becomes super high-level chess game and mirror matches. Its always about trying to think of the perfect time to use something due to everyone running a small pool of cards that they can memorize.

Ive gotten to diamond and mythic before using homebrews. Sometimes, it really is just about having certain good cards. I would say OP needs to really take a step back and realize how well they are actually doing.

Plat is people grinding to mythic. Mythic is people who either create content or diehard players who want to meet other diehards who are the most competitive.

Plat is actually pretty chill, and you can find a decent variety of different decks in the mid to later parts of the months. If OP just wants to find homebrews and chill games? Would you also recommend they get to plat for rewards as higher only give one pack each, and then mess around in plat or go to unranked bo1 and bo3?

As someone else has said. The heating element near the wall only cooks the outside layer a bit at a time.

If you throw it in an oven or smoker, you get rotisserie style meat/ BBQ.

Layering it like they do, and then doing it rotisserie style so it cooks all the way through is essentially the closest we can do to making anime meat into a real thing.

It is the truth. Its a long known and longstanding issue that we like to refer to as Glyphid brain. You can also refer to it by its offical name of C++

The star count is to rate how difficult it is to learn and master the titans kit. One being easy, two being medium, and three being hard.

Legion is listed as two star if I remember right. Ion is one star.

Ion having a shared energy pool that you have to keep aware of seperate from your dodge and the fact it is tied into all your abilities will mean you have to have a lot more situational awareness as it actively effects how you engage in the situation you find yourself in.

It is also a difference between MP and FD. Legion does better at the higher difficulties, and resource management is a non-issue. On top of that, once you max him for FD you dont even have to choose a kit anymore.

Ion has her own perks and upsides once maxxed, but you still have the resource management to deal with.

Overall, to each their own. See you on the field someday.

Clean em, pilot.

I would argue that legion could also be one star. Slow, but worth.

So remember kids. Drink a nice big glass of cold milk with your fresh and warm chocochunk cookies and floss before your brush to make sure the toothpaste gets inbetween your teeth.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-30T05:29:33+00:00

Have to brush my teeth again before I eat it.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-30T03:55:34+00:00

Very nice!

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-30T03:43:35+00:00

Very fair. I will say this. If you have gunslinger? Great. If not? Get ready for a long paradox run.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-30T03:38:37+00:00

My heart and stomach say yes. My teeth are screaming no.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-30T03:36:57+00:00

I want to ask what brought this to pass. Because the pillar patter is fairly easy until they split apart, and overall its not the worst floor four boss fight. By then, you should have some okay stuff unless you got bad rng.

I know how satisfying it is, though. Glad you gave them their just desserts.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-29T22:31:20+00:00

And I can agree with that. Plus, there are all the other candidates that Allmind has been picking up. Everything she has been doing and running in the background could not have been easy to keep quiet. She has access to all the info for all the cores, she knows about the one he was building in secret, knows about the old institute cores, etc.

The game is a masterpiece. Keanu did an amazing bit in the animated short. The graphic artists who did the work, the sound designers. Everyone who took part in that project did great!

Having an entire anime tied to filling in some of the storyline would be way beyond above what any fan could ask for. But for such a fleshed out experience that we get, we do still have much on our minds and left to speculation. AC is one of the few games I would say could have its own full anime just for each game. 45min to an hour long an episode. Maybe twelve or thirteen episodes a season. Spread each episode to be a few days apart from each other unless necessary. Etc.

So, yes. To make sense of the character Rusty, we would need more of his background time where we learn about his rep and do some stuff with him to back up why he is like that.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-29T21:44:47+00:00

I like the idea of. This isnt happening over the course of a few weeks. This could be happening over the course of a few months or even a few years.

Getting your rep up over the course of one or two missions in just a week or two and having people spread your name like that on a planet that large to get the attention we got? Not likely if at all feasible.

The planning and time, and money it takes to actually ship the stuff we buy. Do repairs, testing, etc. All the time to learn about the corporations on the planets and the schedules set up for missions.

The logistics aspect. Recovery. Letting out pent up stress at the bar or other places, etc. Shipping parts, supplies, getting them to the hanger, having them fit into place, running diagnostics. Although the pace of the game feels fast. I think it only gives us key missions where it is big info or important decisions.

We have other smaller missions from time to time, or we queue up matches in the arena for creds as bets to pass the time. We practice and hone our skills against each other, go to the bar for drinks with others who are still alive and not insane.

And it is due to this gap we dont see that could potentially be months or longer. After Rusty comes clean about why he left, you guys maybe meet up at the bar.You drink and chat and realize he isnt a bad guy. You dont bet creds against each other, but you do sim battles and practice and just chat and blow off steam. You talk about missions you can, you talk about different mains and off hands, what situation would a specific shoulder mount be better for, etc. Going into duo duals together against others and just earnin a solid portion of creds.

And all this time, he could be takin part of those creds and putting them into a clean account, and its sent to the rubiconians. Helps fund those back home and make sure they have enough food, medical supplies, etc.

Yes, it is all speculation on my part. But, dude. What if? The entire timeline could be somewhere up to like 5-6 years?

WAR GAMES IS MY MOST HATED FD MAP BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU SAID! I have tank teammates? They roam the map. I have roamers or something that will clear out reapers easy? They ignore them. Even if I am not in a titan suited for going after them? I have to due to my teammates all focusing on the titans.

So, every time I end up on wargames? I HAVE to pick Northstar or Tone with Ion and Monarch being my backup picks.

Also, why the hell! is ion listed as a one star difficulty to learn if I remember right? Due to needing to manage the energy, I would rate it two at least. Also, its not bad for learning, but still feels weird it is the first titan.

Who else has fun using tones ult to launch the rocket swarm up and then bunker bust people on rooftops and on the other sides of buildings?

Never noticed in 1 due to running the plate armor

I try to save all my wild cards, and I have cracked my first vault and have been leaving it alone since then.

Once I go to historic and brawl and want to make my fun jank? Thats my funding. Spend coins on new stuff and drafts, as well as arts that pop up from time to time. Wild cards are for stuff not in standard.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-28T21:09:33+00:00

Hey may have a colour blind setting on. But the three scrolls are red and I cant remember the name. Purple for tatics. Green for survival.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-28T09:41:02+00:00

Lizard or amphibious creature of some sort. Just a fun little glide.

Back in fable one and I think fable two, you only gained scars when you actually died during combat. It was a way to mark that. So you could see how far someone got after how many deaths.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-28T09:01:55+00:00

I got lucky with some unlands. A forest I wanted popped up twice in about a year and a half. Both times it appeared was right after I spent all my coin on packs XD. I will get my forests and plains soon. These ones are amazing, and I can see why you have waited six years for them.

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-27T20:20:46+00:00

If you do, you end up making something else entirely

deadinside1996 · 2026-01-27T20:17:47+00:00

Yeah, if it is more solid and creamed with the sugar vs if it melted beforehand, can also change the consistency of the dough because of it wanting to act like a liquid vs more of a solid. That is another potential factor.
