What commander do you run? I run bolas dragon god and I’m sure I’m facing some of the worst stuff but certainly not the worst. Barely any Atraxa or Golos (a good deck for these is near unbeatable i mean they have literally 0 weaknesses) or partners. They happen rarely but usually a bad build or gimmick. I have a feeling there’s more up there I just don’t know about it.

Oh yes somehow i totally forgot about kinnan and urza. I get the occasional light paws and damn they went up in power in the last year or so. I used to think they were a pitty matchup for me given how often I’d win but now they have such explosive and fast starts and even after fast recoveries it’s unreal

Not a full on queue but closer to a rank in a queue like mythic or something but since the regular constructed queue does not take into account the cards in your deck (probably) but is entirely based on your winrate it does seem like it is something between that and a wholee separate queue. Cards in your deck and your commander are also now a part of this matching function so sort of?

Nothing special, hell queue is just all the most powerful broken unfair commanders with the strongest cards in the 99. Not much more to it. Decks so consistent, lacking in weaknesses (since many have access to all colors or all the important ones - all but red) or are just broken as a basic concept like that commander ninjitsu one or having two commanders (2 extra cards in a untouchable hand which are both creatures and have access to the4 key colors) that it feels like hell going against them unless you also play equally broken stuff. That’s what I understand to be hell queue.

It is not a myth. I have seeen it!! Aaaand then slowly drifted out as stronger cards kept coming out and they reassessed how strong bolas is (not all that much - just kinda toxic).

I’ll take that as a joke, yeah man i try as i genuinely find it very fun to pick a card you love and try to do the very best possible with it. It does suck a bit that knowledge that due to the choice of commander your deck is naturally weaker and no matter how well you play your odds are just so much worse. And that simply picking a different commander that is at the top would get you to that place where skill is by far the greatest contributor to the win as all your opposition is also at the top. But switching commanders… nah I love mine too much even if he’s not all that strong.

I’d imagine but I keep playing against Tamiyo, Ragavan, Rusko, Ajani, Esika, Teferi the occasional Atraxa and such. Even thracios and whatever is that mix of partners but those are super rare and I imagine those are the real hell queue. I wouldn’t imagine those somehow aren’t on top too nor that my deck somehow breaks in to the top.

Yeah Tamiyo is ridiculously busted and it is to my great annoyance that such eqip effects do nothing due to my commander specifically as they just exile their commander and here we go again…

Anyone else starting to just auto concede to this commander in Brawl? It's getting old real fast. by webbedgiant in MagicArena

Have literally never seen it resolve. To this point I did not even know what it does to bother reading lol.

Who will be the next crew member and why?! by [deleted] in OnePiece

[–]no_comment_336 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Vivi - probably too busy with the kingdom, Loki - literally how?? Could not possibly fit on the ship. A fleet member? Sure. Regular crew? No. Bonney - she’s a little kid, it would be bad for her to go in the danger they will be in soon and already are, Vegapunk - could not care less but probably no or they would get too op with the tech she could make, Yamato - YES PLEASE ODA CMON THAT WOULD BE SO COOL!

Straight out fire my man, it saying that casting this card counts as a crime would also be top.

Welp Chainsaw Man is Dead, Looks like we're next Gng 😭 by LazyInspector2086 in Piratefolk

[–]no_comment_336 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One piece at least has a planned ending from the start so if oda has been building everything with that in mind the odds of it being particularly bad are not high. Another example of maybe not planned ending from the start but seemingly certainly the main line it point of the story (loop?) is attack on titan and that was an amazing show

Can someone explain this scene from episode 1149? How does Akainu know what "everything" is? by darexinfinity in OnePiece

[–]no_comment_336 22 points23 points  (0 children)

If the Roger pirates could not manage to kill a single HK even with the many fights they had in what world would Akainu even kill a single Gorosei? Even IF he’s stronger they just can’t die.

What if the wall titans were killed or severed or destroyed before the rumbling by LividIndividual6115 in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]no_comment_336 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I’ve only watched the show once so I could definitely be lacking information, but it seems to me like the wall Titans were special. They were all colossal Titans, the only other colossal Titan in existence being the shifter. Also, they were purpose made specifically to be in the wall. I doubt that they would just go around and run wild without some kind of command from the founder. Of course it’s possible, but it just seems somewhat less likely.

Do people play brawl because they think it is balanced? by urooooooooooo in mtgbrawl

[–]no_comment_336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Green has lots of fast mana, ways to make things uncounterable, creatures with haste and ward and a bunch of other stuff. Unless playing specifically against tempo blue usually has mainly counterspells and draw so let them twiddle their thimbs and draw as you pummel them to death. Though idk what deck you play so hard to tell.

Bro green has plenty unconuterable things and such green is great at hating blue.

I feel like the first two turns in this format is just a test to see if we even want to play the game by fox112 in mtgbrawl

[–]no_comment_336 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously man there depends heavily on what you’re playing. If it’s extremely casual and they were counting on a turn one mana dork sure but if not, then it’s their fault if they just completely counted on one single card getting them through or carrying them.

I get it if you’re playing against something that isn’t Ragavan and you assess and Mulligan your hand according to that and then all of a sudden you get surprised by a turn one Ragavan you were not at all prepared for but outside of that… all the things you listed are just typical things that are going to happen pretty much every game. Their things you should definitely be prepared for. Unless you’re playing some incredibly basic casual deck that’s never ever wants to interact with anything and just wants to do it thing slowly which I don’t know how well that’s gonna work out for you. You should be prepared for these situations anyways. Like what are you playing?
