Also how long did it take you guys to get a job after getting your degree? I have some options that I need to consider.
FRUDGEY. Come work for my company. I want to go back to school and it would look super nice if I replaced myself first LOL.
But for real PM me if you have any interest.

If it makes you feel better, Cixah, I'm like 90% you'd hate it just as much if you made the opposite decision.

This job has insurance. Had I not had it when I did I'm pretty sure I'd be dead or in crippling debt. Totes worth. But esports life super super enticing.

At least, the League team gets it.

Just played a ranked 3v3 game in Rocket League where someone on the other team claimed to be a top 50 player in 2v2 and 1v1. He scored 6 goals, he was indeed, pretty good.

Neutral common. Seems ok I guess. It's not bad and not great. I generally like more pivot-style cards being added to the game, so I'm happy with it overall even if I won't use it. terrible, no deck will use it

Dunno why they put it on a 2/3 body when a 3/2 body would have been just fine in comparison to Mad Bomber and Knife Juggler.

It's the perfect plan except for the fact that I'd rather drill a nail into my brain than work with computers. I have faith that you would do a better job than the "workforce" temps I'm using now. You would atleast understand the words that I'm telling you and what to do. I worked for a temp agency for 8 months. Some of the workers were just guys down on their luck but they were hard working and fairly intelligent. Others made a brick wall look like Albert Einstein. My one friend was out of work for 6 months after graduating, the other 1 year. Depends really. Granted, at that time the Recession was in full swing and basically no one could find work. In my area that's still the case for the most part, and it's all about timing. Took me 3 months and over 100 different applications, but finally found a fast food job due to timing the other day for gas money for school. x_x Everywhere you apply is 200+ applicants minimum, some a few thousand. Yea they're not all the devil. Obviously they pass some sort of computer literacy test because they all mention taking it. My issue is most of them don't like it when I show them what they need to do, and then don't continue to just do it for them. We probably need to look for a different temp agency but thats not my department. Also touchy office guy finally has his desk together and isn't touching my things any more. So I've got that going for me.
Hm, mine didn't have us take anything like that, nor the other 2 agencies by me. You just tell them what experience you may/may not have and then they will look for a random job for you that might fit it. Your pay is literally 50% of what they charge the company for your work. My temp agency unfortunately threw me under the bus. I was working at one place for many months and they always requested me specifically because I was the one who ended up training all their new temp workers. Then they decided to take me off because they wanted to charge the company more/hr (without paying more to me too which would have been illegal) and the company wouldn't agree to that, so I got shafted and got taken off the job assignment. The company in question was even thinking of dropping the temp agency I had in the first place but didn't want to lose me lol.
Was going to school anyway so it was no big deal at the time when I was dropped, but now I've been out of work for 1.5 years looking for some part-time job that would work with my schedule. Finally got that at least.
At the start of the summer I tried to at least get a summer position from that old temp agency though. Now that temp agency doesn't even pick up the phone. Was on hold for over 2 hours 3 days in a row trying to get a hold of them and they don't even pick up their phone after going through all the bullshit automated messages. Basically ever since they closed all local offices and went to only regional offices it went downhill.

Seems like a good 2 mana anti zoo card to me?
Comes in as a 2/3 and kills an enemy 1/1 or 2/1?

Also can hit face, not even guaranteed to ever clear a board.

not a single deck will want to us it; if you want anti-aggro tech, see zombie chow.

Are Blizzard just revealing all the terrible cards now to bait us into not buying the expansion? I don't get it. There are enough terrible cards in the game, why do they keep making more? Fiery win axe is even in the basic set!

I think they're making "common" cards that are naturally worse than rares or better, but are common so even new players can run them easily. Magic does this too with a lot of cards, having a common that is strictly worse than a rare/mythic rare, but it's in the game to allow budget decks to be possible.
The salty taste from all this is that we would much prefer cooler new cards with new mechanics than a common that does something a rare does better.

Also imagine the power creep if all the cards were better in each expansion.  There was an article from the MTG blog where a dev answered "fan letters" and one of them was about the necessity of introducing "bad" cards in each set.

Possibly. I know they like talking about how card "power" isn't tied to rarity but we all know that's a lot of bull as the only late game cards are legendaries. Maybe they trying to rectify the situation.

I don't mind cards being worse than other cards but they should at least fill a situation or have something cool about them that a new kind of archetype can explore. The "new" cards have just been bad. Like that Warrior weapon. What does it accomplish having something that bad in the game? If it had some other kind of niche effect, maybe something to do with armour or losing health then even if it wasn't too strong it would still be interesting. As it stands it's a bad card with a boring effect that is worse than a basic card. Why did they make this card?
edit: Two new cards revealed by IGN + Show Spoiler ++ Show Spoiler +
Again I'm not really sure what to think. Feel like two more duds though. Can see the druid card working if you get early ramp and innervate. Which I guess is the way druids win anyway lol. Current druid doesn't really want to hero power though as it messed up curve.

The Clockwork Knight is a pretty decent card. But that's only because Mech doesn't have much big bodies later on other than Legendaries or maybe Piloted Sky Golem, and it helps your little dudes stay alive later.
So, yay more mech cancer?

I dunno, Savage Combatant looks kind of awesome.
4 mana 5/4 ain't terrible, and it turns your hero power from 1/1 to 3/1?
Maybe they're trying to engineer a deck where Savagery isn't the worst card evar
