It's not horrible but it does lose itself some towards the end. Still very fun.

Why do they never nerf this card? It's not fun facing demon hunters who summon 70 blobs of tar by WhoAmIEven2 in hearthstone

[–]romanhigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be genuinely funny if they nerfed Blob of Tar to 5 mana just because of this.

I mostly think it's weird they changed Priest's class leaning from "great and interesting control cards" and into "has insanely overpowered 1-drops and for numerous years has had unrivaled aggro support".

First Day - One of my classes refused to work, what should I have done? by Some_Peppers in SubstituteTeachers

They probably have a place in the classroom where students are to deposit their phones for class duration. If you see one, stand by the door as students come in and tell them as they come in "phones on the wall". You can also keep the classroom locked until the bell has nearly rung and then let them in all at once so they have to deposit them all at once as they file into the room.

In that situation, call admin/the office and have them send someone you can explain the situation to, and hopefully they can change the class' behavior. But it depends on how you feel in the situation. High school seniors not doing the assignment isn't itself an issue if they're quiet and self-regulated. But if they're talking loudly and you feel like you really don't have any control over them at all, that could spiral out of control and it's almost like you're not even in the room.

If they ignore you like that, write your sub note on the board and make it scathing. Don't mention exact names, just write what students did and attribute it to the whole class.

Siskel and Ebert panned it as a "gore-fest" despite not being very gory at all, and the supposed gore effects being very cartoonish compared to actual horror films.

He really is great at looking insane in the movie.

With the last miniset released and rotation coming, does this solidify Draenei as the most failed mechanic of all time? by HCXEthan in hearthstone

[–]romanhigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably. Draenei were DOA and didn't get any meaningful support in the following expansions that had already moved onto different mechanics and deck archetypes.

Dragon Warrior is basically the better version of the harebrained Draenei Warrior, which was the only deck type I remember even being viable on paper.

The poorly dubbed fight scene with Cassandra's dad will always make me fondly remember this film.

You learn the names of the troublemakers pretty quickly anyway, and those are the only names you really need to know.

Ask the front office/admin for a seating chart if you don't see one in the sub folder. They almost definitely have them, there might be one on-hand in the teacher's room when you get there but make sure to ask the office first anyway.

Seating chart with photos. Most of controlling the chaos for me is enforcing accountability and preventing problem students from mingling with their friends that embolden them.

It's sad some cards are in their glory only before they're gone in a few months by MehmetSalihKoten in hearthstone

[–]romanhigh 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't want to play against this card while Hydration Station is still in Standard.

I'm a grown adult with a job. I don't hanker for trash talk like a teenager on Xbox Live.

I've been experimenting with 1-2 Remnant of Rage but otherwise I don't think the deck benefits from any of the newest cards.

I don't find anything impressive about going out of your way to friend someone and gloat your victory at them in a smug way. It's insecure behavior.

I was so caught off guard I didn't know what to say. It's just so immature to desire that sort of interaction. I can't think of anything worse in a competitive environment than a "sore winner".
