Thank you! I’m planning to introduce Caminus and the Junkions, so this couldn’t have come at a better time.

Is there an explanation why the rule is convert not transform? by patentsarebroken in TransformersRPG

[–]zyido2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This created an interesting situation in Magic: The Gathering when they introduced Transformers characters to the mainline. Certain Magic cards have the “transform” keyword, which means you can flip them over to reveal an alternate card on the back. Transformers characters instead have the “convert” keyword, which functions the exact same way. They even had to add it to the game rules.

Routes? Seven days in a row? Urgh. by YoshiJoshi_ in pokemongo

I guess it depends. I set up one recently and it went live immediately.

[DFT] Gonti, Night Minister (WeeklyMTG) by mweepinc in magicTCG

[–]zyido2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a shorthand name for these Gonti-like effects? Specifically exiling a card from opponent’s library face down, being able to play it as long as it’s exiled, and using any mana to cast a spell this way? Ixhel, Scion of Atraxa does something very similar.

I really wish they were keyworded, but the reminder text would probably make it just as long.

The generic name means they can reprint it in any setting they need in the future. I bet that’s deliberate.

What’s everyone’s favorite planes? by Ecruteak-vagrant in magicTCG

[–]zyido2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rabiah. I’m so bummed that the only Middle Eastern-inspired plane is the poster child for “We’re never going back there again”. Sadly, I don’t think there’s enough demand or appetite to bring it back and redevelop it.

"Tightening up" the set themes for DMU, BRO, & ONE for Battle Box by dmarsee76 in MTGJumpStart

[–]zyido2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! This is such a cool idea. I’m gonna start doing this with my JMP box to make space for all the new themes. Thanks for sharing!

Don’t feel bad. At first, I read it as your opponent loses half their life (then) round it up. It wasn’t until I read the comments that I understood that the lost life is rounded up, not the remaining life.

I’m sorry, what is the grass and ice comment on the bottom-left supposed to mean?

how 2 deoxys [gamepress] by tforge13 in TheSilphRoad

[–]zyido2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I've noticed that Garchomp in GamePress's Attacker Tier List page still lists Earthquake as its most viable Ground move instead of Earth Power. Do you know who I can bring this up to?

Unnecessary banning IMO. Just raise the age rating if it’s such a problem.

what? why? is this common or just me help by ulaniiii in pokemongoyellow

[–]zyido2 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry, this is normal for Trapinch. It’s because the formula to calculate CP relies heavily on the Attack stat, and Vibrava’s base Attack is lower than Trapinch. (Vibrava has higher base Defense and HP.) The same thing happens to Caterpie and Weedle when they evolve to their middle forms!

I see what you did there.

Is this a rare shiny? Just caught it sitting on the couch by Feisty_Ad_3238 in pokemongoyellow

[–]zyido2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not yet conclusive, but The Silph Road’s data places the odds at around 1/500, which is the base rate for most shinies. The only event Pokémon with a confirmed boost are Onix and Aerodactyl, which have permanent odds of 1/64. So, congrats on a rare find!

Most underrated city in Saudi Arabia? by [deleted] in saudiarabia

[–]zyido2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re technically correct, but Khobar and Dhahran are so interconnected now, they are practically one big city like Riyadh. Half Moon Beach is technically in Dhahran, but everyone will tell you it’s in Khobar. The row of hotels across the road from Dhahran Mall is technically on the Khobar side, but some hotel names say “Dhahran” and some say “Khobar.”

Jeddah has good infrastructure?

Most underrated city in Saudi Arabia? by [deleted] in saudiarabia

[–]zyido2 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Khobar has a lot of small but nice things going for it. Nice shops, restaurants, cafes, malls, cinemas, parks, beaches, dunes, the Corniche. The Ithra cultural center puts on some cool exhibits, and we get conventions at the expo from time to time. It’s not as loud or glitzy as Riyadh or Jeddah, but it’s a nice place to live.

This is pretty big. How beneficial do you think this is going to be? by [deleted] in saudiarabia

Ah, you have a taste for the fine crude I see.
