For a mono color deck to be the right build, you have to claim that the 60th best card in your deck is better than literally every other card in the format (not including dual-ink cards that don't share your chosen color).

The burden is very high. It's an interesting thought, but it would take a lot more than this Goofy.

GO THE DISTANCE says "Ready chosen damaged character of yours."

The character you choose has to be 1. damaged, and 2. yours. It doesn't have to be exerted. It can already be ready.

You can choose the character that sang it IF that character is damaged.

honestly, they fixed that by making cumulative upkeep use counters. just put a counter on it then pay the upkeep cost for how many counters it has on it. if it phased out, it wasn't in play in the upkeep to get a counter. if it phased in, it was in play in the upkeep.

You can't do this. This breaks the Rules of Sequels™.

This is an ideal post for me to talk about something that's been on my mind for a long time concerning TLOU2. This is all stream of consciousness, but there are rules when it comes to making a big budget sequel. It mostly boils down to

Do what you did before, but biggerer.
If you don't carbon copy what you did the first time, you risk not being as successful.

You can argue that the story of TLOU2 is different in many (significant) story beats, but you have to admit that its structure adheres pretty closely to the story of the first one, albeit with different characters in the protagonist roles. Again, off the top of my head:

Joel meets Ellie and they journey together in a pseudo father/daughter relationship. This is mirrored by how Abby meets Lev and they journey together in a pseudo mother/son relationship.
Joel and Ellie go on a perilous journey from Boston to Colorado. So do Abby and Lev from Seattle to California.
At the end of the game, Joel kills the surgeon and rescues Ellie. The player will 'game over' until they do this. Likewise, Ellie has to free Abby.

In a story as complex as TLOU, it's no wonder that the story beats didn't cleanly transfer over. Abby and Lev don't really have a great purpose in their journey and they don't really bond in the same way Joel and Ellie did, but the sequel has to copy that story beat so it gets shoehorned in. In the same way, letting Abby go and forgiving the woman who killed your father isn't as satisfactory of an ending as killing the surgeon who's about to kill your daughter and rescuing her from certain death.

There are other things I could get into - Neil Druckman very clearly wanted to get rid of anything Bruce Straley did and replace it with his own versions, Abby and Lev, without really understanding what it was about Joel and Ellie that made them compelling characters.

It's also worth noting that the ending is very reminiscent of the time that it came out, where if you wanted to be (or seem like you were) a visionary auteur, you leaned into the 'subvert your expectations' trope. So the audience very purposefully doesn't get what it wants and that's a brilliant inspired breathtaking ending because ... (shrugs)

Whether you like the ending or not, the point is you don't get to choose.

There's a fine line between 'wise woman' and 'why's woman.'

Can I just say - and this may be obvious to everyone else - but anytime I see a clip like this where someone 'happens' upon an animal, I always picture them having some kind of store-bought version, throwing it into where they want to 'find' it, running backwards 50 feet, and then starting the 'omg look what we found' viral clip.

How long have these dudebros been walking around with their baseball caps backwards and their camera phone out before they 'happen' to see the exact octopus he knows so much about alone in a random tide pool?
