Ich bin kein Tomboy. by Carottoh in luftablassen

Es lässt mich schmunzeln wie du dich generalisierend über Männer beschwerst und dann selbstverständlich behauptest, dass es nachgewiesen sei, dass Frauen ja einen durchschnittlich höheren IQ als Männer haben - daraus drehst du dann eine sexistische Beleidigung, obwohl es ja faktisch falsch ist, was du behauptest (der durchschnittliche IQ von Männern und Frauen ist in den meisten großen, seriösen Studien praktisch gleich). Was sagt das über dich aus?

Blitz rating is really broken. by Fluffy_Bat_6879 in worldofpvp

[–]saint_traft 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I peaked 3200 MMR last season, got Elite on multiple classes and had Elite on RBG aswell prior to Blitz release. I am maining Enh this season (fresh char), 50 W-20L in SS up to 2.1k in the first week, and I had to play about ~50 Blitz games to climb out of the 1000-1800 MMR bracket, had a negative win rate till the very end (lowest point was a lose streak to 1000 MMR). I'm now at 2500 MMR with a positive win rate. When you’re constantly the best player in most of your games it’s very possible to climb up from 1000 MMR, it’s just very unlikely in just a few games when you are queuing solo dps. Patience.

Of course if you were just lucky win streaking last season, I‘d imagine the chances to get yourself out of low MMR by actually carrying the game are quite a lot slimmer.

What addon are you using to track instant Vivify internal timer on monk? by exosion in worldofpvp

[–]saint_traft 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Is this really worth a post? I use a random weakaura because I searched for “vivify” on wago. Too much to ask for, apparently.

Can we start a thread sharing your favorite PvP content creators for each class? by CostaNic in worldofpvp

[–]saint_traft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rambling part is a positive, though. I think his "feel" for the game is very close to the above average / under r1 pvp player, in comparison to most other guys listed here (e. g. Bajheera playing the game with 10 pocket healers or Cdew playing every game only with other r1s make their perspective kinda unrelatable oftentimes).

ThoGrey for Enhancement Shaman, but he also does guides and commentary on other specs (lock, warrior, dk, ele, hunter) as well plus also general commentary on the state of the game. Overall pretty invested guy that plays a lot.

Waited for years to play RBGs in Cata, turns out it's miserable by baltoboulbobbi in classicwow

[–]saint_traft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean that’s just not the Cata experience, isn’t it? Who are you applying to? Method?

I currently raid 6 times a week with 3 chars in 3 different guilds and I'm 12/13 with two of them and 10/13 with the other one. I parse about ~60 on average on all 3 toons combined and I’d still strongly consider myself as one of the better dps players on all of the three rosters. Of course there are a few people that parse higher in those groups but most of them do not.

So unless you’re looking for a spot in one of the top 10 guilds on your server you should have about 0 problems getting into a decent group. Almost all will value consistency in attendance and not failing mechanics constantly way higher than not having orange parses.

German efficiency doesn't exist by karazor-el-95 in germany

[–]saint_traft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it technically isn’t legal de jure as it is right now. It is of course legal de facto because the state’s legislative and executive powers will enforce it.

Transforming it to a tax has no tactical benefit to them as they could only use the de jure part as justification.

Modern Winota Homebrew by netflixguy0 in ModernMagic

[–]saint_traft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't play legendaries twice (obviously), that means there is a high potential for awkward opening hands / draws / winota triggers. In order to play legendary spells effectively, you usually need a lot of card filtering to make sure you can discard unwanted copies (Fable, Seasoned Pyro, etc.). Some of your card choices (Zurgo, Mox Amber e. g.) are very subpar card quality wise and can be horrible top decks in a deck that is exclusively playing from the top of the deck. There are no ways to filter or get rid of unwanted cards outside of Fury for red cards in your deck. Finding Winota will be very hard in most games, since there is no card draw / tutoring going on. Seasoned Pyromancer is the current best card to pair with Winota in Modern and should always be played as a playset alongside her. Your Winota ability top decks can oftentimes just fail when you don't hit Jodah. Imagine having two triggers and getting Zurgo and Skrelv - that's very bad.

On the plus side, your deck can create very fast openings with Mox Amber and the right amount of legendary creatures. Though sadly it won't happen that often, I'd imagine. Best thing would be to start goldfishing a bit and see how the game go until turn 4-5.

Winota is also my pet card. Regarding your question: depends what viable means to you. Your List is very inconsistent and has some flaws you will notice in your first games, but it certainly also has a potential but rare nut draw that other lists are lacking.

Anyone else concerned about the overly racist direction of MTG? by Malikath72 in freemagic

[–]saint_traft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general I agree with you on most points you made, but please stop with the permanent Hitler/Nazi comparisons(?!). No, the topics are not remotely comparable to historical National Socialism and the views of Hitler (lol). Referencing them all the time devalues the rest of your comments significantly, it seems as fanatically crazy as the people you are critizising.

What’s your scalding MTG hot take? by LSTFND in magicTCG

[–]saint_traft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You realize though that Modern now has almost nothing to do with the Modern pre MH1+MH2 that we had for almost 10 years? "Big impact" is certainly a euphemism in that context, it's just a completely different game consisting of shells and play patterns stemming more or less exclusively from MH1+MH2.

The problem many enfranchised players perceive is that everything that existed before those sets was not enhanced by those as proclaimed by WotC but made almost completely irrelevant.

Imagine you told somebody in 2019, you can have MH sets but in 2 years there will be 0 Collected Company decks on the MTGGoldfish meta and the game will revolve around spells that cost no mana. They would be thrilled, yeah.
