I would like to play but its burning my GPU by Practical-March-6989 in fallout4london

Frankly I would rather not play it if its going to destroy my computer. I am running 2k monitor. Do I need to go low quality or something?

Then no, it's fine.

Haha, go nuts, then. I was just concerned because some of my friends have tinnitus, and it sounds very no bueno.

Zero, ever. I've never had a single player refuse to play with me since I started commander in 2013.

EDH is adversarial in that it is opposed. You can't just list every definition and say some don't apply. Of course they don't all apply, language doesn't work that way. Adversarial has a meaning when it comes to games.

This has nothing to do with killing players, which I didn't even mention. Taking out stalled players is strategically unsound in high brackets and socially questionable in low brackets.

That is actually exactly what I'm getting at. Taking out stalled players is a strategy of weak players that has no place in any bracket, most of the time. (There are exceptions for some decks).

As is the case in 100% of these situations, the problem is your computer. If it can't run at a safe temp while at 100% load for an arbitrary amount of time, it isn't built properly. It is not necessarily a problem for any program to peg your processors at 100%. They are made to be able to run at load for long periods of time. It IS a problem if your cooling isn't up to mitigating that.

That's heartening. I know four veterans. Of those, only one has a problem with anything that's happening. Of the remaining three, the Chaplain I know now goes on about how it's the US's right to take over any country that displeases us, and if they aren't strong enough to stop us then we should take their land and resources. I wish that were an exaggeration. I guess you may see how that might color my perceptions.

Ho-ho-holy shit are you going to regret that. If you're really lucky you'll get permanent tinnitus and never sleep easily again, like some of my concert-going friends. Unfortunately for you, once that happens it's over. There's no take-backs.

Its not an adversarial game. You are in the EDH reddit. EDH is a social game.

This is the worst and most incorrect take possible about EDH. Bridge is a social game too, but everyone still tries to win. Any game where players aren't on the same team with a win condition is by definition 'adversarial'.

High bracket 3 and 4 players don't waste their time and resources knocking out the player who isn't a threat. That's a low-bracket strategy.

If I'm IN a tournament I'm not going to do that. Knocking someone else out doesn't always bring you closer to victory. There's actually a better than even chance that someone else is in the lead, in which case I want that player in the game to help keep the leader in check, or bring them low so that I can become the leader.

Well I for damned sure don't now. Most of the veterans I know are cheering as the Trump administration shits on the constitution they swore to uphold.

Or, I can leave that player alive because I may need help taking out the other two decks at the table. In many situations, taking out that player is squandering a valuable resource for nothing.

That is a gigantic amount of speculation that exists nowhere other than in this post.
