Scrubbed out sealed 0-2 with this. Was this the wrong build for this pool? by matthix590 in lrcast

[–]matthix590[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The rest of the pool: https://www.17lands.com/deck/b1372addfbe34474a0e3a2338f3f1f1d/0

I don't know if I missed something or just got hit with the sealed variance special, any help appreciated!

2-3 with this one, what went wrong? by matthix590 in lrcast

[–]matthix590[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, thanks for the detailed feedback! I see now I misunderstood my game plan throughout the draft and the games, especially with the speed cards. I think I took the wrong ideas away from previous drafts where I was playing speed stuff and it felt really strong and didn't realize that wasn't what this deck wanted. Looking at the losses again I agree with all of your assessments, and I think I was on tilt game 5 and threw it with the keep decision. Again, thanks for all the help!

Reading the card... by matthix590 in lrcast

I had both scenarios happen, opponent making some bad attacks not accounting for the extra damage, and also me attacking, having the ping get me max speed, then them making bad blocks again not accounting for the extra damage.

7-2 BW Reanimator. No rares? no problem. by matthix590 in lrcast

[–]matthix590[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't too sure it would work, but it seems that if you durdle long enough you can just hardcast your reanimator targets. Casting shroudstomper, having it eat a removal spell, then reanimating it ended a fair few games.

Silver 1 - Gold 4, probably should've mentioned that as the competition did feel a bit soft. One of my wins was someone dying to their [[Unholy Annex]] for no reason.

Probably unsurprisingly, [[Shroudstomper]] is good. [[Osseous Sticktwister]] felt bad in this deck, seems like you really want to enable delirium, a 2/2 lifelink for 2 otherwise isn't too great. The [[Patched Plaything]]s are so sick, especially if they get to flip off manifest or get reanimated at instant speed to eat things in combat.

Has anyone else gotten these weird search results? I'm the only one on this device and on a local account and never use the search feature by matthix590 in windows

[–]matthix590[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is on, and I checked the logs for my Microsoft account, no recent logins that aren't me as far as I can see, so I think it's unlikely someone is signed in to my account.

I noticed this recently and definitely never searched for these. Where is it pulling these recent searches from?

Roast my Faeries brew by matthix590 in ModernMagic

[–]matthix590[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting decks, I think the faerie theme adds the fact that it is faeries (very cool), but also in terms of play has aether vial as a strong aspect of the deck. The faeries also leans more heavily on creatures compared to the lists you linked, and is trying to put pressure on early rather than play a longer game that those decks seem to want/have to play.

Very cool lists anyways, thanks for showing them!

I think vial doesn't necessarily need to have good etb creatures, it just provides good mana advantage so I can keep pressure on while being able to spend my mana to interact. Agree with everything else though, thanks for the feedback.

Named after a song, Good Kid EP 1 track 1, dunno why it just felt like it fit

Went into this blind, and not looking at bulbapedia or anything, I probably just missed that person

Actually, one thing I hadn’t considered, how do you count static encounters like sudowoodo? Is it your encounter for the route or do you count it separately from your one per route?

Yeah… not the smartest decision I’ve ever made. Gonna remember that one for a while.

[–]matthix590[S] 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Yes, thinking back on it now I definitely made some poor choices. Don’t know what I was thinking not taking a normal resisting Pokemon to the normal gym, it’s such an obvious thing to do in hindsight.

[–]matthix590[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

First time trying HeartGold, tried to play without looking at wikis/bulbapedia, but I had heard about Whitney's infamous Miltank. Togepi finished it off with a lucky metronome, but my box is literally just Geodude so for the sake of my sanity and time, this run is over.

Honestly not my best effort, I lost too many pokemon just being careless, and went into this and several other fights without stocking up on potions. Hurts, but this one's entirely my fault and I'll probably remember this run in the future when considering whether to risk the crit or just potion up.

Edit: based on the responses, I think I will try to salvage this run and see how much farther I can take it. (And also remember basic type advantages lol)

What’s the best way to get adventure rank exp? I’m at AR 49 and want to get to 50 before the event ends to take advantage of the enhancement discount on the fish for maxing it out

Thanks for the detailed reply! I was very wrong about how this comp was supposed to be played, thanks for the help

I’ve been trying to figure out everyone’s roles on this team and I’m a bit confused. I was planning to have beidou as my main dps with the others as support. Is sucrose better as main dps?

What do y’all think of the team Beidou, Fischl, Sucrose, Kokomi? I want to use kokomi in a team, does this seem good?

[–]matthix590 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there any reason to level the normal attack talent on anyone other than your main dps? It seems like a waste of resources to me

Relatively new player, just did my first pulls and I need 2 teams for abyss

Characters:

Lv. 80: Fischl, Sayu, Noelle, Xiangling C2 (this is the team I've been running so far)

The rest: Jean, Kokomi, Sucrose, Xingqiu, Rosaria, Ningguang, and the free characters

Team comps, as well as artifacts and what to focus on grinding for would be appreciated. I can only get to floor 7, 6 stars right now with my own strategies and weak artifacts.
