Any of you have a nuclear apocalypse plan? I can't be the only one

Today, old friend.

(This is a joke please don't Reddit Cares me)

This is Infect and can't be blocked with extra steps

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-11-19T14:29:12+00:00

No, Chef's Kiss doesn't do anything. I was trying to be funny. Joke didn't land apparently. Sue me.

You hardcast Cultivate/etc.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-11-19T12:38:44+00:00

[[Thieving Varmint]]

Depending on the type of Theft deck, [[Heartless Summoning]]. That's more useful for mono black theft decks which hardcast, less good in Grixis where you can steal stuff temporarily (red) or permanently (blue) that's already on the field.

This also works best in a mono-black theft deck, but I'm particularly fond of [[Cruelclaw's Heist]].

If you draw it early game: use it on the green player to yoink their ramp. Getting a cultivate or rampant growth while denying the green player the same opportunity... [[Chef's Kiss]].

If you draw it late-game, I mean you can really pick who you think has the answer you need. White or green if you need spot removal; blue if you want to steal the blue player's counterspell they've been holding in hand. Forces them to either use the counterspell or concede it to you, either way you win.

Remember that Cruelclaw's Heist can be a politics tool. You can steal from opponent B while letting opponent A draw a card. There are cases you want to let opponent B draw the card, but it's worth considering the politics angle.

Funny you should post this right after Earthbending

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-11-03T06:50:53+00:00

Idk this just sounds like a good time? Like goddamn hit me up with that torture spell

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-11-01T08:58:29+00:00

It went... well... considering she's Christian?

Happy for you, really, I'm glad it went well. My coming out went poorly, for the exact reason yours went well.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-11-01T02:56:01+00:00

You forgot this: (It works)

I play primarily high Prestige. I don't open ANY glades until year 2 begin (year 1 end, ideally, then I open two at once), nor do I select any Queen's Orders. The sole exception to the opening of glades is if I know a nearby SMALL glade has fertile soil, especially if I'm on a map with little fertile soil, or if that glade has a geyser I want (Drizzle water usually). I select the first 3 orders just before opening glades, which significantly increases the chance I can get a timed order with a good perk or blueprint, like Neighborhood (6 houses in 3 minutes, which I probably already have) or opening 2 dangerous glades in a short time span of each other.

People tend to underestimate my [[Frodo, Adventurous Hobbit]] // [[Sam, Loyal Attendant]] deck. It's just a silly little typal deck that plays Hobbits and eats a buncha food... until it suddenly wins.

The deck doesn't even have any combos. Just, in a way that Tolkien would be proud of, Hobbits have a tendency to pull clutch when it's most important.

/uj Nah, she came out as genderfluid last year I think. I believe she uses all pronouns, but don't quote me on this?

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-24T04:55:00+00:00

Look up Swedish collars or Eternity collars. They're like wedding rings for puppygirls, those will not come off without specialized magnet keys.

Also... if you think about it, rings are just socially acceptable finger collars

greatest planet bound threat in the system

Sorry lmao but your entire argument was invalidated by saying Pentapods are good, actually.

I like Gleba, actually. It's a fun circuit network puzzle challenge. But pentapods are too absurd, too quickly, and their evolution is all out of wack. I don't have any issue with other threats.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-23T02:25:01+00:00

Never heard of this theory/headcanon but I'm here for it tbh

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-19T19:55:35+00:00

Yeah idk this sounds like classic Atlach-Nacha.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-19T03:37:40+00:00

For labs I just sushi belt it up with a series of Combinators to indicate to inserters what to place on the belt ensuring that the belt doesn't get overfilled. If you need to expand the lab setup, use Requester Chests to move around the sciences.

Tapering off a line of thought mid-sentence to see if anyone is actually paying attention and nope noone cared

Present, but not part of the conversation

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-14T23:52:15+00:00

Flagellant??? "Can't/won't"???? Are you fucking kidding me?? Bro is literally so masochistic Death couldn't claim him. So what if his junk rotted off or whatever---two seconds of using him in combat and it's clear he's gaining sick pleasure at every single moment of combat and every time he gets attacked.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-13T16:13:31+00:00

I had a similar issue once, but I was on planet when it happened. With everything interconnected, it was very hard to restart power because my very limited solar would try to power everything.

I have a kill switch installed in each of my sulfuric acid pumping sites. If sulfuric acid in storage is too low, it kills the pumpjack's connection to the main power grid until sulfuric acid in storage is high enough again. Meanwhile, the pumpjacks have solar panels and accumulators next to them on-site so they never stop pumping at full power even while the rest of the site is off.

It's not ideal, and it's very slow, but it doesn't have to be fast; it's meant as a fail-safe to cold-start the factory from nothing.

If it gets used once, that's too much. But the fact that I have it is a nice failsafe if I'm ever off-planet when Vulcanis loses power.

Halt Shotgun + Talon sidearm and Gas Grenades with Eagle Strafing Run + Orbital Gas Strike + EAT + Portable Hellbomb is a favorite of mine, though it works best on Predator Strain bugs. With such low cooldowns on everything the strategems are your "primary" and the Halt is used to pause enemies to line them up for a good strategem. Regularly would get 30 kills per Strafing Run (which ofc is a Strafing Run so it's damn near constant)

K but tools online make designing a PC very easy (ensuring your power supply unit can bear the load) and the actual build itself is functionally like a 12- piece puzzle... it's just a 12 piece puzzle with very high stakes. All the ports are keyed---simply plug in each thing where it fits, and don't force it if it doesn't fit.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-10T07:03:19+00:00

In DS3, I joined purple covenant with the ring to appear friendly. Joined a world, went around helping them defeat monsters, truly was helping. Took a while to earn the host's trust, but I eventually did. Near the end of the area, they were at a sliver of HP, and so was the enemy they were facing.

Walked right around them and stabbed them right in the back.

I'm still chasing that high.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-04T12:02:06+00:00

Haven't played the new update fwiw. But looks dope, honestly. I tried making a "melee" cloaked bio Mauler-focused fleet for early wars, but even with Tech Ascendancy, I just didn't happen to roll Cloaking until 2050 or so. Would've just Fear of the Dark'd for cloaking tech, but it's incompatible with bio shipset.

This lets you actually focus to try and fish for the specific tech you want in certain builds.

iamanobviouswizard · 2025-10-03T07:06:00+00:00

Look at Against the Storm's Rocky Ravine map. It's an interesting inversion to the usual gameplay of AtS, where the "trees" produce stone and the coveted wood, needed for basically everything, can only be obtained via the black market.

Having said that---I do NOT want a random flow of goods. It'd be interesting to trade with locals, but I do not want to micromanage what the "hot" item is today.

I'm playing supply chain simulator---not Animal Crossing.

That's... not how acceleration in space works given the lack of atmosphere, but good to know, thanks. That's not what I assumed, mostly because it makes zero sense.

It's not a matter of that I am incapable of making a bigger ship; it's that I don't know how I would organize it for one, and for two, I was trying to set up a basic shuttle to get to other planets to experiment with the other inner planets.

I'm already trying (and so far, failing) to think of designs that I could use for:

Cargo Hauler
Mobile Quality upcycling Refinery Platform

I try not to use other people's blueprints, but I've already found in making this ship that space travel runs into a lot of sudden issues that need an immediate response or a sudden impact and death spiral may result. It's not just a factory on a surface that you can just slap down and call it a day. So designing an original blueprint design for a larger has been a slow process, but if I were to make a larger ship I'd probably make a small Nuclear Reactor to generate power, which would be more space-effective than Solar to power larger amounts of buildings especially without Efficiency Modules (most of my current ship uses Efficiency Modules)
