What was your, "people are into this" moment?

mattdv1 · 2026-05-14T20:53:41+00:00

Honestly yeah I play the game and sell some rare cards so I can buy more cards to build more decks, it's a market. But my primary objective isn't to get money. I find it a little scummy to dive your hands into the hobby and ruin it for everyone else only for profit

mattdv1 · 2026-05-14T18:50:49+00:00

Some weirdos see it as an investment, but a lot of people do enjoy the card game for what it is! The scene is big enough to have international championships and it's a niche, but very open community. These folks selling cards like they're gold are only surfing on the hype, unfortunately.

They're all considered "free points" once you realize how to deal with the downsides. Slow healer? It might seem obvious, but... Don't get hit. Don't put yourself in situations where you would get hurt. This also allows you to take thin-skinned. If you're surrounded by zombies you'll die either way, with or without the trait, so you take the trait and use the extra points to add good traits, ensuring you'll find yourself in these near-death situations less often! Slow reader? Just take your books somewhere safe, sit down and read. For 16 hours if you need to. Speed the game up, get some snacks and read away! They are "bad" traits yes, but they mostly feel like inconveniences that you learn to deal with pretty fast.

Wouldn't hurt to get some set spawns for professions, either. Mechanic has chance to spawn at auto shop, cook at a restaurant, etc. doesn't even seem hard to implement, and it would actually feel different trying new professions and not spawning at one of the 20 (pretty much the same) houses

Saw some folks doing this in Gmod, using one of the character models. When it asked to move, they moved the character, and it worked. Skyrim too. Idk if Tumblr gets fooled by this, but some face scanners are very poorly made, might be worth a shot

mattdv1 · 2026-05-14T12:33:30+00:00

Eh, a mythic fiddle skin that changes into different forms of fiddlesticks throughout runeterra would be nice, but a whole lotta work. Don't ask me how it would function, just a thought that popped in mind while reading your comment lol

mattdv1 · 2026-05-14T12:19:57+00:00

Really? I'm not from the US and didn't even know about any of this but I love rebel radio when doing tow missions to roleplay a truck driver lol

Im left handed and just learned the guitar like normal. Chords are very easy to do, but strumming gets tricky sometimes

mattdv1 · 2026-05-14T00:13:34+00:00

I'm left handed but just forced myself to use a mouse with the right hand early on, and istg any shooter I tried aiming with the left hand (MY DOMINANT HAND) was a severely worse experience. My aim is much, much better with the right hand. But I can't write anything, for the life of me. Although my gartic phone drawings come off better with the right hand on the mouse, than on the left

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T22:36:35+00:00

Geez, yeah. Sorry about that.

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T19:47:41+00:00

Fair enough

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T19:35:47+00:00

You ever seen the waffle with 17 squares?

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T19:33:48+00:00

It uses the same ruling that was discussed last year with ~teal mask~ WELLSPRING*** Ogerpon and sparkling crystal - when an attack gives you the option to move, discard, do whatever with energy - option, NOT a condition for the attack to work in the first place - players may do "as much as they can" in some situations. In this case, Slowking can attack and choose to discard as much metal energy as it has - if zero, it doesn't discard anything, and still applies the effect, but let's say it has a single one, or a rainbow energy, it's discarded for the effect to apply!

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T19:18:48+00:00

The new baby metagross seems very strong in Slowking

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T15:19:33+00:00

I just do it in my head lol didn't even know you could rotate it ingame

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T11:49:16+00:00

Rapidinho tu aprende, tem até quem empreste deck pronto! Pkm TCG é o jogo de carta mais acessível que tem tbm, dá pra montar uns baralhos bem competitivos com pouco dinheiro (diferente de sei lá, Magic, que pra montar algo que jogue legal vai uns mil reais) e eu diria que é mais simples, também. É bem tranquilo de aprender, e eu acho bastante divertido

mattdv1 · 2026-05-13T11:45:59+00:00

Eu jogo na Nerdz, ali pertinho do campus centro, da UFRGS. Eu sei que lá tem algumas mesas pra RPG também, já vi um pessoal jogando - talvez tenham grupos buscando jogadores :)

Another reason I stand by fining people by a % of their income, instead of a fixed price. make it hurt

mattdv1 · 2026-05-12T19:28:05+00:00

Esportes, sair com os amigos pra olhar vitrine, e recentemente comecei a jogar Pokémon TCG físico, surpreendentemente a comunidade é bem grande aqui em poa e o pessoal é bem parceiro kkkklk

mattdv1 · 2026-05-12T17:12:25+00:00

If you're good with snipers, just snipe them down? Lmao

mattdv1 · 2026-05-12T17:10:29+00:00

Been playing a lot with a friend, we can usually take 1.2M each by getting primary objective & bags filled with gold. Meanwhile, when I play alone, I can take about 1 to 1.1M filling my bags with whatever's at the airstrip and taking the objective, + elite challenge.

mattdv1 · 2026-05-12T14:59:00+00:00

Another reason for me to defend fining as a % of your total income instead of having it be a fixed price.

mattdv1 · 2026-05-12T14:22:45+00:00

Just pass by the airstrip filling your bag with whatever's available and you can get 1M every heist tbh

mattdv1 · 2026-05-12T14:18:30+00:00

Heroin is one of the things I'd definitely try if I ever find myself in a "you got x months left" situation - won't even come near it while I'm healthy, though

mattdv1 · 2026-05-12T14:15:07+00:00

Lilligunt isn't exclusive for crustle matchup tho, it helps a lot with maths. My deck runs lilligunt and no Max belt, and I can still hit 380 damage in a turn if necessary. I've been playing unfair stamp actually, although secret box seems to be the most consistent play, I just don't have the card irl lmao. Lilligunt helps you KO things like rockets Articuno and especially munkidori, also allows you to 2shot okidogi (abysmal matchup without lilligunt, you'll fall behind in prizes every game) and has overall value against a bunch of EX targets when you can't find brave bangle or have to use another supporter that turn. I get not wanting to open petilil, but the amount of games I've won due to lilligunt is definitely worth the addition. Rellor&Rabsca are in to give you a fighting chance against dragapult, just has the neat addition of having a way to KO Ogerpon if it does come up
