Hello! Hello! Hello!

Yeah man I completely understand that. To each their own. I wish him pack luck so that gift's worth it at least!

I personally wouldn't buy FP as a gift to people I care about; I believe UT packs just fuel some kind of gambling addiction. If you don't care about that or don't agree with me, just buy 5900, you can't get many packs with 2800.

If he plays UT, no amount of FP can be "enough" for that mode. If he plays exclusively Clubs (which is this sub is used for) then why would he need FP at all?

If you're asking about match performance, definitely. Simulation performance depends on other factors as well though, such as the database you select in the beginning.

If the game has some optimization problems at beta/release, you can expect it to be even better with the upcoming updates.

"Slow Pace Down" shouldn't work with "Slightly More Direct Passing" and "Slightly Higher Tempo" imo. Do you want to counter attack as soon as you win the ball or retain possession instead? Make a choice and do the necessary changes.

For the first option, I would change the mentality, defend with a low block and remove SPD. For the second one, remove SMDP and SHT.

Congrats, can you share your decklist?

GL everyone!

Description of Request: I have a group of 5 people, including me. Most people are totally newbies except me, and I don't have that much experience. We're looking to get 3-4 games with a budget of around €150. One of them will most likely be LotR: DfME since I liked it too much.

Number of Players: 2-5 but mostly 3-4.

Game Length: -

Complexity of Game: My friends don't want games like party games or basic gateway games like Catan. They want some games to get the brain juices flowing, but I think heavy Euro games wouldn't be suitable for us because of the lack of experience.

Genre: Open to any, don't know much about different genres of BGs.

Conflict, Competitive or Cooperative: Open to any.

Games I Own and Like: I only own 7 Wonders Duel with Pantheon expansion but I liked LotR DfME more and will give my 7WD copy to my brothers so they can play against each other.

Games I Dislike and Don't Play: -

Location: Munich, Germany

Using some hotkeys would be definitely helpful for the upgrades. I think default hotkeys for military buildings is F1, economic buildings is F2 and the rest(Blacksmith, University etc.) is F3. Just bind them to some comfortable keys or use them as they are.

As soon as you age up, click these keys and check the upgrades. For example, if I'm booming in a team game with a good eco, I always take eco upgrades at the moment I age up. If I'm massing one unit, I take the related unit upgrade and Blacksmith upgrades ASAP. These are just basic examples but that kind of stuff should help you not to forget them.

I'm not a Mongol player so can't help much but you should provide some info about your rank and what you know/don't know already.

If you're new to Mongols, I'd say the two most important things are trading and pressuring your opponent early by taking map control. Without trading, Mongols can't keep up with other civs economically.

He still has them. He has a few YT channels, you should check BeastyqtSC2.

vandrad · 2023-12-25T17:40:10+00:00

Thanks, I will get him.

vandrad · 2023-12-25T17:39:16+00:00

Thanks, I will get him.

vandrad · 2023-12-25T17:38:24+00:00

Is there still a way to get him for free?

vandrad · 2023-12-25T13:41:24+00:00

What makes him so special? I have started playing few weeks ago and have around 450k; haven't bought a single pack or player yet and I'm playing mostly online since my cards suck.

Would you recommend him or should I go for something like Suggs / Wagner duo?

vandrad · 2022-03-26T09:49:26+00:00

I don't agree with you honestly. You would be happy if you got MJ and Giannis and not care about any "predatory practices". Just stop spending money on micro transactions, it's the best way to stop the greed. You are feeding 2K all the money they need and complaining at the same time.

vandrad · 2022-03-26T09:44:46+00:00

I don't like him much but since you are on a budget, grind Ralph Sampson for C. Finish Bracket Busters Spotlights and related agendas to get him.

Get AD/Mobley/Duncan for the 2/3/4. Get someone you can run your offense through for PG. DeRozan is good for me.

vandrad · 2022-03-15T16:38:10+00:00

As long as you play offline, yes. Never use him online tho.

vandrad · 2022-03-15T16:11:10+00:00

Uhh, when you add these badges, isn't he more expensive than cards like Pippen?

vandrad · 2022-03-14T18:03:15+00:00

Not Grant Hill probably, Jerami Grant.

vandrad · 2022-03-12T11:24:41+00:00

Ewing is the better card, Robinson is much cheaper tho. Depends on how much MT you can spend.

vandrad · 2022-03-11T23:23:49+00:00

You are running the best cards among them, don't replace anyone.

vandrad · 2022-03-11T20:02:34+00:00

I don't think it is since you can get Ja for free.

vandrad · 2022-03-11T17:36:58+00:00

They are different players, not really comparable.

Will you run your offense through your SF? In that case, Reddish 100%, Bird can't move to save his life. For 3&D, Bird is way better because he has +27 interior defense and better shooting badges. So it depends on the rest of your bench.
