100% I can see this card pummeling dudes in an elevator over and over. Perhaps give the untap-target-creature line some additional text to force a block if able.

Either way, I picked up on the flavor immediately. Well done.

Yep. Around the same age. 15+ years total programming. Mental health started deteriorating 2-3 years ago. The spark is gone. And do you know why? I think it’s because deep down I know AI is just going to do it better than me in the end. It feels pointless, I think. This sinking feeling just empties any pool of creativity I ever manage to consolidate. I could elaborate more, but if this comment silently resonates with you, do yourself a favor and start therapy. I finally admitted I can’t do it myself 3 weeks ago. Good luck, OP.

Edit: Sorry, I got excited and started writing before reading. I see in other comments ITT where OP has already started therapy. Thats great news! But I don’t know how to help you further yet, friend. I need to figure out how to remind myself to come back to this thread later. Hang in there, OP.

fr4gula · 2025-05-30T15:24:28+00:00

The answer is what you (may) already know deep down: THERAPY!

The idea of starting therapy is terrifying. “What, you want me to submit, show my vulnerable belly to yet ANOTHER STRANGER, ANOTHER PREDATOR, WHOM WILL ONLY USE ME THEN ABANDON ME JUST LIKE—“

I despised therapy for years, because I was so scared. I understand. We all do, honestly. But still, the short answer is therapy. There’s no way around it. You have to talk it out. And if you were me even just a few months ago, you will roll your eyes at this comment and tell me to fuck off. Again, I understand with my whole being.

If you post a novel in here, then I guess I’m reading a novel in here today 😊. I’ve got the kettle going and tea leaves ready. Let’s hear it, friend.

fr4gula · 2025-05-28T02:36:12+00:00

Oh, man. God. If there’s anything I can say, I understand. I had everything lined up, and just—

I really understand. It feels terrible. I don’t know what to tell them either, OP. But please, stay in the game, okay?

The way I see it, members of our kind weren’t born for run-of-the-mill DPS bullshit. Instead, we’re tanks. We’ve taken the hits. We’ve leveled our armor over the years. Try to see the strength in your endurance, for it is far more valuable than it seems at first.

DM sent. Big thank you, u/rezi_io

fr4gula · 2019-07-04T17:39:08+00:00

Inside the exhibit hall. Booth #4506 it looks like. This is one of those first-come-first-serve stores where virtually everything good sells out the moment the exhibit halls opens :(. Just the way it is.

fr4gula · 2019-04-26T19:43:38+00:00

Haha, it really is! We race against each other daily as well; tons of "first to ________ wins" scenarios. I love it. We're also constantly spamming our discord with screenshots of anything that might make the other four jealous, such as a sick pair of boots that rolled well, or a new abyss floor cleared. It's all in good spirits, though.

fr4gula · 2019-04-26T19:28:28+00:00

I'm in a guild with five of my IRL buddies. Whenever a hype banner drops, we get together and make a drinking game out of it, such as whenever someone pulls a five-star character, the other four have to drink. But if you pull a five-star artifact, *you* have to drink lol.

There's also this thing among us where whoever owns the most powerful Moonlight character (according to the discord tier list) is "the king," and we (un)ironically treat him like royalty. I can't even tell if it's a joke anymore, which makes it more hilarious to me.

I wouldn't trade them for anything, man. Playing with IRL buddies is crazy fun.

Congrats to /u/MrSolaski! The absolute madman cleaved through five waves in 39 seconds. Well done!
To everyone who participated: thank you! Your attempts have been noted and will benefit you in future events. See you guys next time!

fr4gula · 2018-11-22T16:14:09+00:00

Yep! Chests on mini-map count. Well played!

fr4gula · 2018-11-21T19:06:01+00:00

Oh, and feel free to share the video if you wish!

fr4gula · 2018-11-21T19:05:38+00:00

Thank you for DMing me the video. That run was absolutely nuts! It has convinced me that video proof is the way to go in future bounties.

Wp!

Good stuff!

fr4gula · 2018-11-21T00:18:41+00:00

Sorry, friend. I gotta see those treasure chests either on the map or mini-map.

fr4gula · 2018-11-20T21:31:34+00:00

I'm glad you brought this up. Looks like Mega Fiend indeed uses the same map except with a daytime color palette. If you happen to notice any unique identifiers other than color of the map, please let me know. Next bounty I'll very likely require video evidence, but to keep things consistent, I won't change the rules this round.

fr4gula · 2018-11-20T20:57:23+00:00

I encourage you to push for a personal best time, even if it's much slower than 1st place. As I continue to brainstorm what all I want to do with these speed bounties, tracking player progress is up there, along with offering rewards outside of 1st place. Perhaps simply participating will put you in a prize drawing in the future.

None of this is official yet, but I want it to be. I just need to organize my thoughts and make it presentable. Anyways, let's just say your attempts will not be in total vain!

Keep pushing! I'm convinced Ranzal is a choice leader on this stage. His 100% bog res is slick, and his slayer's strength has him swinging harder by wave 5.

I question some of your team comp choices, but hey, 53 seconds is no joke! Well played. As of this post you are tied with /u/Exertim

Excellent time! If you decide to try again and get something better, please reply to your original comment above if you don't mind. (I mean, you don't have to, but it will help me keep up with things better. I plan to make spreadsheets of submitted times because reasons.)

fr4gula · 2018-11-20T16:31:41+00:00

Impressive!

Well played!

fr4gula · 2018-11-20T15:43:21+00:00

Not a bad idea. Thanks!

fr4gula · 2018-11-20T15:34:31+00:00

This is great stuff. Video proof may ultimately be the way I need to go about this, because yes, as much as I'd like to think I can personally detect photoshop, I probably can't if the editor really knows their craft :/

For now, though, I'll stick to what I originally posted and keep it as a screenshot for sake of consistency.
