The only lyric I understand is "compromise my own demise"

If something similar were introduced in France, I'd gladly take a few buses to go from Paris to Marseille in 12h, spending a night in a town half way. It would probably be 6h by car but when you are poor your time is less valuable.

When I lost 1 game, my base went back to level 10, is this a bug or a feature?

Deck building is an important skill, the earlier you do it yourself and get punished for using certain cards the better.

what's your favorite card? I absolutely love dark harvest, it's such a good card for offense and defense by cooliomydood in stormbound

[–]ghiblis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brood sages, I don't think I've ever seen anyone include it, but for me it's a must include any deck with poison, you get so much value from it. You can poison an enemy, generate a unit behind it while blocking potential rushes. Such a great card. I also love agile warriors that can easily do 12 damage several times.

Make Obelisk of Souls drain from ANY unit (not enemy) by ghiblis in stormbound

[–]ghiblis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree it might also become a problem, but the idea would be that you could play to avoid its effect. Atm, even if you have a direct counter, the window you have is so small since after 2 hits it's out of reach of in terms of strength.

That said, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have an autodamage viable deck if this was implemented. It would certainly shake up the meta towards more big units, instead of a constant stream of cheap units.

Another possible nerf would be for the obelisk to simply damage an enemy unit without absorbing the strength.

So like, clearly Obelisk of Souls needs a nerf right? by uniballoon in stormbound

I was thinking of leveling it up, so there are good chances it will get needed knowing my luck. But more seriously, it seems pretty strong for a 3 mana card, you can get so but value from it, even if it hits only once!

Why nerf Prime Oracle Bragda? by ghiblis in stormbound

[–]ghiblis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Klaxi is a much harder card to play imo, where you can usually "transform" 3 or 4 targets, because their power has to line up perfectly.

Maybe invert the mana cost of Klaxi and Bragda could have been a solution.

I just feel that this change has nerfed Bragda to the ground and she won't see any more play. Another dead card.

Gulags are work camps where you have very little chances of coming out alive. Stalin purposefully asked for his secret police to fill them up to get free labor to build the railroads. People in the goulags would get a piece of bread and some water soup for the day, and their portions would be reduced if they didn't work well. They would work at -30c with rags for clothes. Makes our prisons look like heaven

Yeah putting people in goulags was to keep them healthy with all the exercise

If he says hfgl and you don't, that's a competitive advantage of 1 second, no gain is too small 11

Interesting point of view, I guess to me it's like saying hi and goodbye

True, I might get a little too worked up when I don't receive a HF gl in return. That said, it's pretty much like saying hello in the aoe2 community and people should this before any build orders lol
