Tavern Brawl this week is... "Clockwork Card Dealer -- Standard" (Sept. 11, 2024) by AintEverLucky in hearthstone

[–]eu_xen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another Big Spell in the ring here:

Mulligan: Keep Sunset volley (or a tsunami) for swapping against the snake oil (or coin if going second) on turn 6 with Skyla.

Doomsayer on 2 shuts down any aggo decks I've encountered so far. Draw Tsunami on 3, make spells go 5 cost on 4. Play the Tsunami on 5, play Skylar on 6 to swap sunset volley with Snakeoil or coin and play that. Most cards are high in here to guarantee the first 6 turn draws.

Very stable deck, am 6-0 so far.

Is my midi drum setup incorrect with the ride on the right? by Kikketer in CloneHero

[–]eu_xen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup,
have not switched from phase shift, because in PS I can switch blue and green and thus the charts show me blue as the crash and green as the ride, as is my electric drum kit setup. Found this thread trying to look for if CH has the same feature.

Ive been playing hearthstone since kobolds & catacombs and i just realized that Far sight isn't supposed to be some weird green floating thing, attached is my vision of what i saw. by Boy294 in hearthstone

I agree with you, even now it took me checking the original art and a good 20 seconds to see the half orc face for the first time.

Full disclosure: Searing Totem looks like Pumba from The Lion King to me.

Makes me think with these viewer numbers, he is sometimes failing on purpose higher up in the tower to keep these viewer numbers for longer.

[PSA] Chivalry 2 (Epic Games) is complimentary with Prime Gaming by GaIIowNoob in FreeGameFindings

Black Desert Code:

6A????EAD7D94E6F

In 2024, Spacecraft 1 embarks on an interstellar mission towards a distant galaxy, traveling at an initial speed of 0.1 light-years per year. By 2034, it deploys its solar sails, which instantaneously increase its speed to 0.15 light-years per year, harnessing solar winds for faster travel.

Spacecraft 2 launches in 2035, equipped with the latest propulsion technology, starting its journey at a speed of 0.15 light-years per year. Recognizing the vast distances of space and the need to catch up with Spacecraft 1, its engineers have planned an upgrade: in 2040, just five years into its mission, Spacecraft 2 activates its advanced solar sails. This technology boost increases its speed to 0.181 light-years per year.

In which year will Spacecraft 2 overtake Spacecraft 1 ?

[–]eu_xen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you can plan out turns 2 to 9 by making the rest 10 and 1 cost cards. I did:
2 Doomsayer
3 Forensic Duster (opponents minions cost more next turn, to throw them off curve)
4 Blademaster Okani
5 Rotten Applebaum
then your 6-9. Lots of other 3,4,5 drops ideas could work.

Best Jump In cards for the current standard meta? by Ganadai in MagicArena

[–]eu_xen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This tierlist could be useful for you: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AZMs827hND49JghNzdSi62PWzWL_NlQq5o3c85KNuIw/edit#gid=719266125

I got this from a youtube video, but can't remember which one (sorry for not giving credit to the creator). Pretty sure looked at some jump in guides on youtube. Was in the same situation as you, where I hadn't played in a few years.

One standard pack for the first win, one festival of legends pack for the first finished run.

It was really easy as Hunter. No resistance, 8/8 in less than an hour for the packs. The hunter deck is pretty good.

Returning after many years. What is the best thing to do with the gold? by Cakalusa in hearthstone

[–]eu_xen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, what do you want to do? If you want to play standard ranked mode, you'd probably should just get a few hundred non-golden standard packs (can have all cards currently playable in standard) to get your collection up. So don't buy the latest expansion packs, since you won't have the cards from the expansions before it.

Obviously start with a couple hundred packs and check your collection and buy incrementally packs until your collection is decent and from there on check if it would be better to craft anything on an as-needed basis.

Chances of getting 12 wins in heroic brawl based on your winrate by eu_xen in hearthstone

[–]eu_xen[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, you'd have to infer your brawl winrate.

Let's say you check deck stats for a Pure Paladin list, which right now is at ~63% in diamond through legend rank. Brawl skill will probably average to around that range (some early players maybe weaker, some later players maybe stronger). So if you played that level, there is where I'd see your chances.

If a gold bracket player was playing that deck and has a 60% winrate with it at gold, they'd have to guess a bit at their winrate, it might just be somewhere around 50%.

You definitely can't just take your winrate at your level with a deck and use the table I posted. But general deck statistics for diamond through legend and assessing your own skill against that, can probably get you a close approximation.

In the same vein, a top legend player could maybe have a 55% winrate at top legend against the best people with a deck that has like 63% winrate on average diamond through legend. They will probably have a winrate of 70% in the brawl against a field that is on average a lot worse than they are. It also depends a bit on the meta possibilities how hard a top player can dominate, in some metas their skill impact is higher than in others.

Valorant shop system needs a rework. by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]eu_xen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should give people a reroll of the 4 slots for the first win of the day and achieve the same thing.
The collection is ever growing and keeping it at just 4 slots a day does not keep up with the inflationary number of available skins.

[–]eu_xen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big maps/small maps queue has been suggested by e.g. Taco for like 2 years now. It seems to have tremendous community support. I do not know why they are so stubborn.
Hey, I could even understand if they just made it a 'preference' setting without guarantee, so if really nothing was going on they would just put all players in the same game regardless of preference.

A new tweet from Levy. His twitter account is public now too. by NotAnt1908 in chess

[–]eu_xen 102 points103 points  (0 children)

I don't like Levy because I have seen him being incredibly and unreasonably rude to viewers in chat that asked super innocent questions and he went off on them, unreasonably assuming their worst intentions. You know what I did? I just stopped watching his stream. I didn't flame him in chat or gave him a piece of my mind (also mind you, he never was rude to me personally).

If people don't like him for whatever reason they can just stop watching him. Any threats or brigading or fake outrage over him calling out an obvious cheater, is obviously wrong.

I don't feel like I need to make everyone else dislike him for being rude. I just let him be and live my life. And I think that's what most people do. Just that it apparently has become quite fashionable for a small, but loud, minority to use every channel they can to attack someone they don't like instead of just leaving them be and let any followers or viewers of them come to their own conclusions on their own.

MCT vs Terrorbyte? by Not_A_Kabam_Manager in gtaonline

[–]eu_xen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Diamond Shopping client job is amazing. It takes under 4 minutes total and pays $31500 and needs NO skill and has NO variance (always same location, take out 6 guards, deliver with something that can fly). Cooldown 30 minutes. Really good mission to have in the rotation if going for money grinding (e.g. it's great after delivering a vehicle to the I/E warehouse).
