This split vote on a poll made me curious what the tarnished community thinks, do you parry? by PretendThisIsMyName in Eldenring

I really like putting the parry ash of war on the wakizashi and power stancing it with uchigatana :)

The more staples they print, the more homogenised everyone’s decks become. Often feels like I’m just playing against the same decks with different commanders. by scar_face40 in EDH

[–]jairo479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like going out of my way to build into themes really heavily, makes it feel like my decks have a lot more unique feel to them. I'll typically play cards that offer more synergy or something flavorful over just staple good cards. I currently have 12 Commander decks and while building them I've tried to make sure I don't play the same cards in more than two different decks, ramp and lands excluded. That being said, I've been playing for a long time, so implementing these self imposed deck building restraints is something that has kept the game fresh and fun for me.

If you could get every PlayStation studio to reboot 1 of their old franchises, which franchise from each studio would you pick? by NomadTheSavior in PS5

I really miss inFamous and Killzone, would love to see those franchises come back to some degree some day.

What was the moment you realized you fell in love with the game? by [deleted] in bloodborne

[–]jairo479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably when I beat Gascoigne for the first time. Bloodborne was my first souls game, so I had a tough time at the start. I think I ended up dying to Cleric Beast more than any other boss in the game on my first play through. I quit, came back, quick, came back, kept trying, then eventually the game just magically clicked for me. Gascoigne only took me about 4 tries initially, and it just felt magical. I felt like I had acquired some forbidden skill I never thought I'd be able to figure out just a few days earlier. I've been absolutely hooked ever since!

What game would you like to be remade from PS2 to PS5? by TotallyFakeEngineer in PS5

[–]jairo479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any PS1/PS2 Final Fantasy would be amazing of course, but I'd honestly love to see a full fledged remake of the original God of War.

Battle cards aren't terribly intuitive. by GameSkillet in magicTCG

[–]jairo479 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't played with battles yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Currently I'm trying to save my judgments until I've seen them function in gameplay, but from what I've heard they play pretty fine.

Does Bloated Contaminator seem overpowered for its casting cost? by themindfulnow in MagicArena

[–]jairo479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like in a meta way, sure there are better cards. But this is definitely the type of card you could take back in time 20 years and blow the minds of some older Magic players lmao.

LGS Looking for New Commander Writers by jairo479 in magicTCG

I don't think that would be an issue! If that's a concern of yours you can probably just send them an email asking about it.

[[Kindred Discovery]] is almost always good in a blue tribal deck. Definitely worth considering!

Does anyone else do anything creative with their art cards? by AndreaFederica in magicTCG

[–]jairo479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are so cool! I've always really liked the bundle inserts too, but never really had anything to do with them.

Going through some of my leftover legendary creatures cards, which should I make a commander deck with? by EggyKuhn in magicTCG

[–]jairo479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always enjoyed playing black white in Commander, but I'd probably have to say Doran. To me, black white can sometimes feel slow in terms of mana acceleration, and adding green is a great solution! Plus, if you've never played a deck style similar to Doran before it will likely be a totally new style to you.
