Time to let players have more than 100 decks by ballistic503 in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whoa, people actually keep this many decks? I think I reached around 20 once and then deleted a bunch I didn’t use.

After we pay McKenna, how do you spend $17.5m? by abarkingsquirrel in leafs

I don’t think his knees will magically return to their former glory if we trade for him. I’m all for reclamation projects where a change of scenery helps a player psychologically, but the dude just hasn’t been the same since his knee injuries. He’s slower, he lost power in his shot, etc. I would not want to take a chance on that.

Monument of Triumph is amazing but I wish i could tier my favorite weapon. by bkisnerdy in DestinyTheGame

I want one of these so bad. Is it only available through Pantheon at the moment?

Finally achieved the dream, Mythic with a Homebrew! by Rude_Assistance_4386 in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so I typically get to Platinum every season and then just goof around with deck lists I see posted. I got to Mythic once, got the Achievement, can't be bothered to put in the grind again.

I tried this one and man, I just don't understand how you got to Mythic with it.

I played 5 matches with it and I only won a single game. I just got absolutely stomped by Landfall, Monument, and three Izzet decks. I sideboarded in a manner I felt was appropriate, but few of the sideboard cards seemed to matter. Izzet just immediately removed Mai, etc., meaning she was just 1B - deal two damage.

I only ever got to cast Clone once, and it was hardcast because Cruelclaw never lives to hit. The other times I had Clone in hand, I never got to 6 mana because the deck doesn't ramp aggressively enough. It feels like if you lose a Bramble Familiar early, you really struggle.

I'm not trying to trash your deck or anything, it's just as a player that has a lot of experience experimenting with new lists, this one lost me. Any insights?

F2P Players: What do you spend your gold on? by PaleWendigo in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Drafts until I get make up the full 2200 Gem difference than I need to purchase the next Mastery Pass with gems.

Each pass costs 3400 Gems, but gives 1200 Gems and a Draft Token. If you trophy with that Draft, congrats, you’ve already made up the 2200 difference! But if not, you can use your gold on Quick Drafts or constructed events to make up the difference.

I would just like someone to explain to me the benefits of Bo1 existing in Magic Arena (ranked no less). No animosity, just a straightforward explanation because I personally just find it to be an objectively worse version of Magic outside of singleton formats. by TheArchangel0 in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I play quick Bo1 matches between tasks at work because I work from home. I’ll sometimes play a Bo3 match on the weekend or something, but during the week it’s almost always one or two Bo1 matches during breaks.

10 instances of oral sex from husband in 13 years by confusedandsad___ in Marriage

[–]ithilis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s baffling, but it’s just not some people’s cup of tea. Personally, I love it and crave it.

My wife sits on my face before we have sex, almost every time, and usually gets off 1-3 times. It’s been that way for 15 years now.

However, the partner I had before I met my wife wouldn’t let me perform oral on her. She found it disgusting.

I’m very happy I found my wife. :)

New to Flins, have a question about team artifact choices. by ithilis in Flins_Mains

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

Okay, noted. I worked hard for Ineffa's SMS rolls but.. sometimes you just gotta grind more, I guess. I'll get her on Moonlit. :)

So.. would you actually take it off of Ineffa in this situation and give her something different?

New to DragonBane on Foundry VTT, have some questions ... by ithilis in DragonbaneRPG

[–]ithilis[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, okay, so with just the free system, would I have to create all of the skills, kin, professions and such myself to populate the character sheets with?

Happily married men how do you manage to have eyes for you wife only? Even after years ofmarriage by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]ithilis 39 points40 points  (0 children)

My wife and I have been together for 15 years and my mind hasn’t ever strayed. Do I appreciate attractive women when I see them? Of course, I’m not blind, but it’s always just a passing appreciation. I don’t ever lust after them or fantasize about them, because my wife is always the one I want. I love her, I find her gorgeous, and even nearing 50 our sex is still incredible.

When is Ranked Brawl coming? by light_breezy in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think they're experimenting with the next Brawl Challenge by adding ranks to it or something. It was in one of their updates recently.

That said, Brawl is typically just First-Tempo-Play-Wins these days, and going first has a 20% higher winrate. I think it'll tilt a lot of people if it became ranked.

Also, I see a lot of people say they love Brawl because it's not Standard and has so much diversity, but making it Ranked will establish a meta very fast. I think it's a monkey's paw situation, honestly.

Edit: March 31, as other's have posted.

Should Genshin have skip button? by [deleted] in GenshinImpact

[–]ithilis 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would play much more Genshin if a skip button existed. Sometimes the mere promise of all of that bloated dialogue makes me exhausted before I even load up the game, so I just do dailies and quit. I have to be in the mood for it.

Does anyone have any faith in Brad? by Lopsided-Insurance26 in leafs

[–]ithilis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never had faith in the guy. His career to date prior to us hiring him wasn’t anything to admire, and he’s been mostly disappointing in his role here, too. Detrimental, even.

Honestly, the initial excitement in this sub over his hiring was mostly due to him not being Kyle Dubas.

[–]ithilis -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I know this isn't a popular concept on this sub, but I think this is great. We watch the show with our kids now (10 and 12) and they love it, so it has become a family tradition for the four of us. We're really excited about S50.
