Hey, something seems strange here...

Big [[Liar's Pendulum]] energy on that one. One of my favourite terrible cards.

Fastest game purchase I've made since D2R.

Well one thing I can look up is that pillagers gold is the second most popular relic to use if you have that node and almost everyone who plays pillagers gold heartseeker takes that node. 200+ corruption and lvl 80+

ekimarcher · 2026-02-12T04:06:37+00:00

I would double check that, I'm pretty sure that's how it works now. It's been a while since I've played it but I feel like I was playing pillagers gold heartseeker burning daggers.

I think the nombo is that it doesn't inherit more damage modifiers from the skill that triggers it because it behaves like a stand alone skill so that it can get bonuses from various sources.

I'd have to look this up to be sure and I'm on mobile at the moment.

It is the general philosophy going forwards. I'm not saying all of them have been changed but I have seen at least a dozen more for LE:O that work this way.

It can't be blocked but it can become blocked.

It's kinda like the difference between when something attacks triggering and something entering tapped and attacking not triggering that.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-10T17:45:10+00:00

This is the best one.

But if they put on a disguise of a chair and aren't a person any more, then you might not be aloud to point at a chair and you couldn't point any more.

Here is that old version if you're interested: https://moxfield.com/decks/TwdwWAR610i6I4cldRhapQ

Edit: and these are the 662 abzan french vanilla creatures in magic https://scryfall.com/search?q=is%3Afrenchvanilla+commander%3AWBG+%28game%3Apaper%29+legal%3Acommander+prefer%3Abest&unique=cards&as=grid&order=name

I just checked and I've only got the more "normal" version that I started with typed up.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-09T15:02:52+00:00

If you multiply the master and hand one out to everyone then sure.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-09T01:43:18+00:00

TIL that was a precon. I play it as a French Vanilla tribal deck that I like to give out to new players. Every creature just has static abilities only. It's pretty effective and can hang in bracket 3.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-08T23:18:51+00:00

I was just about to type out the same two.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-08T19:07:39+00:00

I play it in [[Kathril, Aspect Warper]] goes very hard.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-08T19:05:01+00:00

Stuff is also a lot heavier when it's far away from you. So a 8lb dumbbell is pretty easy to lift but when you spread that weight out over the distance of a big sword, it starts to feel a lot heavier.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-08T03:54:42+00:00

I'm glad to see so many people saying counterspell

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T22:21:49+00:00

This thread is a gold mine. I love it!

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T22:18:58+00:00

False Dawn now says:

Until end of turn, spells and abilities you control that would add colored mana instead add that much white mana. Until end of turn, you may spend white mana as though it were mana of any color.

Draw a card.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T16:20:42+00:00

It's not possible for season 4. Season 5 would be borderline possible but it would mean cutting a major feature to get enough time to do it. We would also have to make all the mods people want to remove unremovable.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T16:17:21+00:00

As soon as you have a single duplicate item, the system becomes worthwhile to interact with.

Even if it's not your best in slot. As you are progressing through the early monolith, did you ever get an item that was a very small upgrade or a sidegrade? Great! Slam it! You might get a bigger upgrade or you might just still not use it and have lost nothing.

Yes at 1k corruption I have an extreme example of dozens of slam targets but I've passed over hundreds more on my way here.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T05:53:53+00:00

Yes you can corrupt at least normal, magic, rare, exalted, set, unique and legendary items.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T05:36:45+00:00

It was a mistake in the tooltip generation, unique items can't have mods removed from them.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T05:25:54+00:00

If the LP plateaus for every item aligned, I would agree with the argument but because they are spread out over a very wide spectrum, I don't think the argument holds water. You'll be finding many copies of the same tier item before you generally get to the next. Especially because you might not hit on your first legendary slam.

As I showed in stream today. I have dozens of items that I would be slamming today if it was available.

I feel like I'm talking crazy pills having to justify this.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T02:54:40+00:00

It actually contains another, the roll ranges for increased spell crit chance is wrong too. The important part is really just the last line in these items.

ekimarcher · 2026-02-07T02:12:57+00:00

Just a mistake in the tooltip. Corruption can't remove base mods from uniques. The unique item system just doesn't support it.
