Jund, faithless looting and grisly salvage as enablers with minor dredging from darkblast. but I haven't done any playtesting yet because I'm missing some cards and lands. I do really want to make it though...

Make an account on Tapped Out. You can then solo-test the deck. It's a good way of checking things like your land base, whether your deck actually has a plan, etc.
ModeratorA dream. Do you have one that has cursed you like that? Or maybe... a wish?

Yeah, I misspoke., its been a while since I've played but now that the team has some downtime I'm gonna take another crack

Just booted up my file and it was HARD that I've beaten. Since its the middle difficulty and there's no easy, I just associated hard as normal

And I had the same experience with virion. Gave him a huge investment, a good pairing, etc etc etc, and was just unable to effectively use him. He's either getting picked off by very fast units or I completely isolate him from everyone and have him just get in 1 or 2 shots all fight and at that point it's not even worth. Similarly, enemy archers gave me almost no trouble the whole game as well.

I figured reliance on Frederick was bad! I did that the first few levels on an early play through and found that the rest of my characters were unable to keep up. I guess I'll try to use him more in lunatic

In a similar vein, I watched extracreditz games you might not have played and there were some recs for NDS tactical strategy games that looked pretty good. Knights in the nightmare and another that I can't recall ATM. Any experience with these?

Caelym PM me for the manabase you need and we might be able to work something out. I think I have 1 or 2 verdant catacombs laying around still that I probably won't need because I basically only play blue in constructed, lol.

Nah, as far as my tactical strategy games goes, it's only ever really been Fire Emblem and Heroes of Might and Magic. I'm so sheltered when it comes to video games.

Also yes Frederick reliance is bad, but what I hear about Lunatic mode, its not that you should use Frederick but more of a YOU MUST use Frederick otherwise your team will be blown up to the point that the corpses will be unrecognizable due to the sheer scale of the beat down they received. I'd imagine though once your team does stabilize you can stop using Frederick. I myself haven't played Lunatic mode, but I hear that it goes something like that.

No. All I could afford was 7 hybrid pen marks for my ap and my support pages. Wanted to get some lifesteal quints to update my ADC page. Guhhhh why runes so stupidly expensive?

Could a hotel throttle your internet? I just got on my laptop and turned on a stream of league and under 5 minutes it feels like the internet is 100x slower than when i first got on.

Hotels often have crappy internet especially if they've got a lot of guests. When I went to blizzcon the hotel we were staying it was within walking distance so it was heavily bogged down by all us nerds.

Knights in the nightmare is neat, but it's certainly odd and is hard to compare to anything else.

Pokemon stadium is impossible.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Just curious, have any of you guys listened to Kidz Bop recently? It fascinates me that they still create music like this. It also haunts my dreams though, so hey :/

For a taste of true music, try This and This

lol

Protip: Don't bike back home from the supermarket with a grocery bag in your hand and a crate of beer on the back. I crashed, sprained my wrist pretty badly so now I can only type/game with 1 hand. Feels bad man. Luckily my body absorbed the blow, my HTC survived as well as the groceries and nearly all the beer.

At least I got some time to watch VODs now, lol.

Or at least go careful ^^
It works well until you stop in a sudden uphill/bump and still fall.
Nothing is impossible, only some things for some people.
