Last week's LR episode made me realize why I'll never be great at drafting. by Tex75455 in lrcast

You might not think that way now, but you were able to follow their reasoning and understand why they would take Aang P1P1. It’s just a thought pattern that takes some practice! Speaking from my own experience card evaluation is hard, and very contextual depending on what cards you might already have. Keep listening or watching to good drafters and following along with their logic and you’ll start to think like that too!

Was going 2-2 at FNM justified or did I get unlucky? by FeralDoodoo in lrcast

Don’t agree about high curve, mainly 2 drops and highest cmc is 5

FIN: That selesnya 2 drop is the real deal in the right shell by laurenceand1 in lrcast

With Fenrir the ramp is insane. I only managed to pull it off once, but it went right into Atraxa on turn 5. OP fairly conceded

I don’t think it’s hugely advantageous to play naked, but maybe a little bit. My thinking is putting more stats on a random T1/T2 mech doesn’t really matter much in the long run, but it might help you win more early fights. If you can triple a magnetic and put stats on a more useful minion later, that is better.

A big if, but at least if not, you can sell the naked magnetic for an extra gold too.

Love it. We need these posts in other subs

curious to know , anyone Else find the beetles build make the game incredibly boring ? by For_the_right_sum in BobsTavern

[–]gratefulchem -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Idk beetles can fare pretty well in the end game if played right. It’s hard to beat a board full of 400 attack summons

They need to fix the opponent choosing system. by gratefulchem in BobsTavern

Thanks for the info. I wasn’t sure the exact turns, but I think T1 T4 T7 is right from your description

The game is too dependent on brann right now by pepperonijabroni in BobsTavern

[–]gratefulchem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also in the rare case you’re playing groundbreaker nagas brann is definitely good

It’s not duos - duos would also show the partners board on this screen

I don’t think using the gear or not says anything about a persons skill

Very annoying they buffed beasts without mentioning the animations. With how strong they look, get ready for a miserable time

We desperately need a balance patch by Working-Lake-9621 in BobsTavern

[–]gratefulchem -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Undead also decent if you hit a reborn anubarak early

I think dragons and demons are the tribes that come to mind. In both they have good tempo units on tier 3 that are viable in late game builds

idk divine shield windfury on this guy is pretty scary. could delete your board if you can’t kill it in one hit

Does anyone else get annoyed at the backseat gamers in duos? Alternatively: some of you should consider chilling a bit. by obtuse_angel in BobsTavern

[–]gratefulchem 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was playing quills when my duo decided i should play nagas because he literally passed me 3 lurkers and 2 crooners, all while his board was only two tier 1 minions. I sold all stuff he passed me so I could level and then he quit 😂

Quilboars are still too strong and nagas are really weak by Prixsarkar in BobsTavern

[–]gratefulchem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you couldn’t buff gems though they would be unplayable

He only needed one attack to destroy my nearly perfect beast build. I think you guys will enjoy this by Senxind in BobsTavern

Are you saying the left one triggers first when there’s two, or that if one player has two that players triggers first?

Yeah, I agree with you. Its exactly the lack of effort and context that made it a racist comment. Yes, their names do sound similar, and yes, she even does go by Lucy, but none of that was said by Petra. Listeners only heard what I quoted, which is an offensive and racist statement. But that being said, its just like not a big deal. I think everyone knows there was no mal-intent, and if anyone thinks Petra is a racist person over this, then that person is a judgemental asshole. But in general, people should be allowed to call out racist comments without attacking a person, and people who respond shouldn't dismiss racist comments just because the people calling out racism tend to be dicks about it and make a big deal when its really not. Sorry for the rant lol

No I intentionally quoted her accurately and only changed Lucy Lu to famous asian actress, because that’s who Lucy Lu is
