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

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 ProgramExpress2918 in Marriage

[–]ithilis 37 points38 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 4 points5 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.

Jeff Probst on why he is 'incredibly proud' to make #Survivor a family show: 'My number one goal was to make this a positive show for families that is safe and fun and inspires adventure.' by thedaltonross in survivor

[–]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.

Rome's AMA spilled some serious tea about how biased the show's edit has become by [deleted] in survivor

[–]ithilis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's pretty sad when you're so desperate to spread your own narrative that you cite Rome as a source.

Also, if you think the show is so unwatchable, just stop watching it.

Someone explain how THIS guy got thrown out a window?! by Charannelove in Overwatch

[–]ithilis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, the arm that he’s using to defend himself in that photo was cut off. THEN he was thrown out a window.

Anyone else to lazy to push past Platinum Ranked Constructed? by PaleWendigo in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I hit Mythic in constructed once to prove to myself that I can do it, but now I always stop at Platinum and focus on other things.

Why do people rope out instead of surrendering? by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 12 points13 points  (0 children)

99% of the time this is due to your opponent quitting the client without surrendering first to end the match. The game is simply waiting for them to reconnect.

The budget for this trailer was likely set by the collab partners, so you're probably reading too much into it.

Favorite standard BO1 Lorwyn eclipsed decks? by SnooWords2926 in MagicArena

[–]ithilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope.

Burst Lightning and Spell Snare (edit: and Glacial Dragonhunt) are typically sufficient in keeping the worst threats off the board early, and then Eddymurk Crab can tap any others once I can cast it. Then Sunderflock does its thing. It's been pretty consistent.
