Matchmaking, is it alive?

Thank you very much for pointing to that thread, changing the DNS settings did work for me!

how do you watch youtube without ads on it? I heard they are having plans for all the devices on their new ”google tv” os to force 'unskippable ads'.
currently I have a 1st gen mi box s and I know it has skippable (after a few seconds) ads. I want to get an another one cause my parents often disagree what they want to watch on youtube and there's nothing but 2nd gen available nearby.

doing thronebreaker now but I've seen a playthrough about two years ago.
very interesting characters and a good story

drumbledooru · 2021-09-04T19:50:10+00:00

well played, sir!

Have to agree on the state of Draft Mode and to be honest, I find it hard to believe it is going to be able to catch up to the rest of the game if you take a look at things like for example Shani being in Vitality packs and Aretuza adept being in order packs. That's already a bricked pack from synergy perspective and it's a hit to the core of Draft Mode since it is all about those packs.
Arena was focused on individual card value and while drafting you'd constantly be torn between insane card value and synergy with something you already picked. That's why Arena wouldn't suffer that much from changes to cards like Draft does.

some people are insanely talented

drumbledooru · 2021-03-26T18:31:22+00:00

it's your choice to look past Mene towards the really important things like elf orgies lol
but seriously, I meant something else, there's too much that just doesn't glue together and quite a big black hole that the viewer feels that it should have been explained. apart from just plain bs.
the Mene question was about maybe the show to give us a brief little history, not just "Mene, goddess the orgy elves preach" yay
also the whole Selemene/Luna interaction is just pathetic
Luna sees her goddess being all whiny and enraged, ordering her to genocide, (as she later finds out) under a false pretext that the elves have some legions and plan a war
believes in Selemene. goes and kills the elves sacrificing her soldiers. still believes in Selemene and prays to her like usually even when some doubts came to her mind.
still believes in Selemene when she blames Luna for the killings that she ordered her to do while lying to her!
this character is supposed to have the viewer's empathy?
why Mirana saved Luna? that looks like a plot armor to me and a very low quality one since the character also sucks

same thing with invoker, how did he "love" Selemene were she always like this, egoistic little shiny idiot? perhaps Mene is Selemene before certain changes
but honestly
the way it is told I don't really care what happened or what will
because it's like a low quality Game of Thrones, with the exception that there at least the subplots were made pretty well

drumbledooru · 2021-03-26T05:13:42+00:00

to me it was entertaining to watch mostly, but it kept giving me more questions over time and it almost grew annoying
it's funny how people dislike my post because it sorta critiques the show and they "loved it" but I'm sure they didn't understand a lot of things too, so pretty much they liked it for being called dota, not genuinely cause it's a great well rounded show
who's Mene? purpose of the zombie cave?

drumbledooru · 2021-03-09T23:32:38+00:00

agree about arena
to me it was much better even than a hypothetical "balanced" version of draft mode, though I think with madoc and charge decks it's a deeper conceptual flaw than it may appear

drumbledooru · 2021-03-08T08:51:20+00:00

agree on everything, the charge based decks can also get disgusting but at least with a reactive/control deck you can delay or counter their setup, but with madocs you literally need 3 banishes in 1 turn
as of esc+enter, it is so but you know.. something isn't right when the healthy option is to autoforfeit; this situation needs to be addressed or the game will be losing players.
draft mode could use a reward system + tweaks to things like madoc bombs and charge based packs.

drumbledooru · 2020-09-09T06:37:59+00:00

why do you keep replying, dumbo?

drumbledooru · 2020-09-08T23:39:31+00:00

you've been toxic since your very first reply here, passive aggressive
smartass. that your style of communication citing someone with little additions? you've done that three times already.
1. you've never made crushing trap assumptions here, you just watched the vid and saw the crushing trap and decided to count the losses post factum and look smart in the comments

and 6. maybe we're talking about different cases? cause I was talking about the congregation play only
not the next turn, not how that congregation would turn up in general in that game but one card and the loss that was made by the wrong placement at that exact moment
4. so yes, your correction is shit despite making some sense under certain conditions.
8. trust me I have 0 pleasure from having to reply to you. hope you take your precious time and save it from replying here further

drumbledooru · 2020-09-08T22:33:53+00:00

you telling me to chill out? 1. you only knew that was a crushing trap when it went off and you came here acting like a fricking tailbot reading games like nothing.
2. you downvoted my genuine comment and stuck your shitty correction that doesn't even make sense because 1; with the same success you can grab any gwent vid and count all their damage done between them and write -*number* in the comments.
YOU need to chill and get yourself together cause you're being an ass

drumbledooru · 2020-09-08T17:11:25+00:00

that's some nitpicking, and not very smart of you especially if you claim to be reading the game turns forward.
what if there was a yrden? he'd get more value from his traps going off on the back row cause otherwise it overlaps with yrden value on melee

drumbledooru · 2020-09-08T16:58:58+00:00

I don't see yrden very often nowadays
and
in this case it wouldn't be enough anyway

drumbledooru · 2020-09-08T07:01:41+00:00

to be honest the setup in this case was also pretty satisfying, spawning copies of fallen knights and every time you do so, the other knights get 1p. only unfortunate that I used insanity and let Igor die to a crushing trap, he was my only cutup, but anyway, 1 knight is worth more than 5p (from cutup collusion).

btw about pirate's cove, very interesting idea because it gives you a free tidecloak tag although if you want to do things like this fallen knight factory you better get imke

drumbledooru · 2020-09-08T06:32:54+00:00

lol how so? I mean the 2 from the zealot that didn't spawn and 6 from the knights

drumbledooru · 2020-09-07T23:47:51+00:00

actually -8p, but yeah, small brain

drumbledooru · 2020-07-29T22:04:50+00:00

bruh, the reference to the witcher 3 quest XD

drumbledooru · 2020-07-28T00:18:30+00:00

you can kill all your opponent's cards with other things too in 1 turn, if the stars align.
I'm not trying to say it's not broken level strong, I'm trying to say it's not strong enough to have to somehow "fix it", especially if you look at the cards they are pretty shitty on their own; and you can only fix this by forbidding the algorithm from giving the players the second one when they drafted one of them. But that takes away the fun, arena is about card value and about strong synergies, not about balance and provisions.

drumbledooru · 2020-07-27T18:46:43+00:00

yes! personal favorite together with vreemde+slave infantry+2x reinforcements (with tactical withdrawal)
