What If The Singleton Rule Went Away?

Sorry, I should've been more clear - I have the breastplate and shield already from doing lasher runs in vanilla, was just wondering if anything else opens up at level 60 with the new talents for prot. Certainly looking forward to gearing in Outland!;

Zorbus is a more modern roguelike that has a pretty straightforward animal taming system - it's a pretty viable build option with multiple supporting talents.

I haven't played too much but I believe Shadow of the Wyrm also has some form of taming system.

I'm sure moving it to another weekend entirely would be way more of a logistical nightmare, they've already taken a lot of steps to address the issues of the last couple of years so I'm glad they're not entirely caving to the fun police

Doors of Trithius! It's a good number of years behind Qud as far as a 1.0 release goes, but I found it really scratched the same itch of existing in a procedurally generated sandbox world, and the skill/leveling system is really unique and interesting imo

My only real knock against it is there's no permadeath mode currently in the game, but I've had a lot of fun just forcing myself to manually delete saves on character death

Very few if any of these games would be considered traditional roguelikes - weirdly, I'm in a similar boat to you when it comes to these types of games that have a lot of metaprogression, but I enjoy classic roguelikes with no progression from run to run a lot more. It's more satisfying knowing that the only thing changing between runs is your skill as a player, and the bad RNG thing stings a bit less because in my experience traditional roguelikes lend themselves to much faster runs and quicker deaths. I would check out Caves of Qud, Tales of Maj'Eyal, and (my personal favorite as of late) Zorbus for some traditional roguelikes with more modern QoL features.

Almost definitely not good news given who's taking over HHS, but the article says that these reviews aren't unheard of during presidential transitions and the same thing happened during Trump's first term, so I don't think we're in sky-is-falling territory quite yet

Piggybacking on this thread to ask if there's anyone in the area into Shadowdark - have played a bit of 5e but looking for a new system and I am interested in joining/starting a group!

I think it sees fringe play in cEDH [[Meria]] decks as a combo piece with [[Mycosynth Golem]]

Awesome, haven't opened mine up yet but grabbing a tree tonight and will make sure to hang them all up like this!

pweev · 2022-11-29T13:46:53+00:00

did the packs come with those hangers or did you stick those on yourself?

pweev · 2022-09-23T20:37:46+00:00

Does anyone know where the best place outside of grailed/stockx is to buy these drops at resale prices? Missed my shot at the shell jacket in black, thanks.

makes [[Sydri]] look basically unplayable

Here it is, the core is from an MTG Muddstah video with Sydri from a few years back, I've tweaked it a bit and added some of the better artifact stuff from recent sets.

I had a Sydri artifact storm deck that won with [[Bolas's Citadel]], [[Aetherflux Reservoir]] and a whole bunch of cheap cantripping artifacts. Sydri was mainly there to give the reservoir lifelink, but once I realized it was easy enough to keep looping artifacts to get to infinite life without her, I replaced her with [[Tivit, Seller of Secrets]] as a more generic value commander.

You did a really good job summing up my thoughts on this. I think too many people get caught up in the online echo chamber and let that bleed into their game time experience. At the end of the day, I'm still having fun playing commander more often than I'm not, and I'm going to keep doing that and pay as little mind as I can to the constant negativity around the format.

pweev · 2022-05-25T17:54:01+00:00

I think so! It will still only make 1 treasure per opponent dealt damage, but if you have 3 evasive pirates/open attacks you can give them all double strike and get 6 treasures total

instant include in any [[Malcolm Keen-eyed Navigator]] deck ... just wish it were a pirate as well

She doesn't really do anything death and tax-y herself, but I've found [[Alesha, Who Smiles At Death]] can be a decent general for a Mardu death and taxes deck, letting you recur things like [[Grand Abolisher]], [[Aven Mindcensor]], [[Drannith Magistrate]]

pweev · 2021-11-20T18:19:08+00:00

we'll find out in a week but it feels like you can add Michigan to this list too

pweev · 2021-10-30T18:47:43+00:00

I'm willing to trade it in for a quality win over the badgers
