Not a cell phone in sight. Just living in the moment. Absolutely beautiful @PMDShitpost

@atrocityTCG This is how most TCGs do it, and I think it is good

The HIGHEST seeded player in topcut gets to pick whether they go first or second without need for a dieroll Bro what?

@FrankyKugisaki @MargwaNetwork @JCbackfire @NoahJ456 @Smugstr He did

@MargwaNetwork @JCbackfire @NoahJ456 @Smugstr So Jason won’t be reacting to older custom maps? I really want him to see Leviathan

OFFICIAL: Info From Todays Blundellathon Stream with @JCbackfire & @NoahJ456 (Speedrun & Custom Map Reaction Stream) - Ancient Evil was originally going to have a Boar War Pig enemy type - The sound of the cup that Sal throws in the Mob Of The Dead Intro was recorded using an actual cup from the Alcatraz gift shop - The Key in Mob Of The Dead was also modeled after a key from the Alcatraz Gift Shop - The underwhelming reaction from the Shadows Of Evil reveal at Comic Con made them double their efforts for Der Eisendrache - Samantha's voice being American on Origins "was deliberate" - There will be a "Map Test" Competition where people build custom maps using Jason's theme of "Over Under" and Jason judges them in a month and picks the top 3 maps - The next Blundellathon will also be with someone else

@TrifGaming YES SIR

Mystic Mine can come back

@pharaviel It just comes down to it is just a red twinning blade. I would rather just fetch a twinning blade and not lose a counter for the effect, and twinning is a yellow. I played around with the card tonight, and it feels clunky

@Fridgemuffin09 Seems good as a 1x to get with singing, it would really punish an overblock

Overall very happy with the Hala armory deck, but I'm not really sure what they were cooking here. It might get more mileage in dori vs decks that want to throw the whole hand in front of dawnblade, but idk. Seems not worth it

@GigaLawNerd Yeah it's just kinda rough as a red

@Fridgemuffin09 Note that while you have to remove a counter, you get 2 modes. It's decent in Dori when you're ahead as it's essentially Twinning Blade + Glint (minus the reprise) as long as you have a counter. In Hala it only seems really good if you've got multiiple sharpens going on.

@TheLazEDog I think if your opponent has to overblock that much, you've already won the game and/or they don't know what they're doing

@Fridgemuffin09 Feels like it’s mainly good when you can blow your opp out when overblocking and kinda fine or below rate otherwise

@_patreus Even when it's above rate, it is only +1 value. Doesn't seem too great for a red

@Fridgemuffin09 still on the fence about the card but it seems good as a triple swing enabler. although i did some math and u either need go again on the second swing or 2 +1 counters because otherwise it's below rate :C

@in_thine Yeah, being a red is why I'm not sold on it. But it's probably too good if it's not red. Unfortunate scenario. I'll play around with it a bit and see if it's better in practice

@Fridgemuffin09 The fact that the counters are removed unlike Beat of the Ironsong hurts. On top of that it is a Red card. However being able to give an extra swing is a hell of a drug. I like to think of it as a model Red Twinning Blade.

@MargwaBot But instant crush is his best work

Leak is cancelled. That song sucks. Mood ruined for the next year. Might deactivate my account. Casablancas shouldn’t be allowed to use autotune for an entire Strokes song. Fuck my life.

@fedginator Don't ban my hornet drones 🥲

I think this is vaguely where I'm at in terms of a reasonably possible wishlist. Branded Fusion could also be Flame I'd be happy with either honestly.

@JayNekoVR That's crazy man I would not be conceding

TLDR: My round 8 opponent in Orlando yelled at me, tried to prevent me from calling a judge, was brought to tears, and manipulated me until I gave her the win for Day 2. My opponent made it clear from the moment we sat down she had never made day 2 before, had been playing for 8 years, this was the farthest she'd ever gone, looked up my limitless page and saw I'd day 2'd before, etc. Friendly and talkative until she misplayed, asked if she could take back an action (played ultra ball, wanted to super rod first), and I wanted to call a judge to resolve. She proceeded to yell at me, was brought to tears, and accused me of taking advantage of her having a panic attack by saying I wanted to call a judge. "I can't believe you're doing this to me," "You're being so mean." Totally out of left field. No one should EVER be made to feel like a bad person for wanting to call a judge to find the best resolution. She made a huge, loud scene, had a complete breakdown, and everyone sitting around us was looking over. I was embarrassed and felt like the worst person in the world. One of the players next to us started trying to comfort her mid-round. I ended up making the judge call in the middle of all this and the gameplay issue was de-escalated, but despite an extension (that was too short), we didn't have time to even start our game 3. Before the match, we agreed to discuss a gentleman's agreement if we reached game 3, but we didn't make it that far as we ran out of time just as she tied it up in game 2. She then accused me of reneging on an agreement and became extremely manipulative... "If I were in your shoes and my opponent hadn't made day 2 before, I'd give it to them," "we made a gentleman's agreement, but if you wanna take it back, whatever I guess." (Despite this very clearly just falling into concession territory). The judge standing near us even said "don't say things like that" as we had this post-match discussion. I try to avoid confrontation, consider myself a nice person, and am often a people pleaser. I've been taken advantage of in the past because of this. Honestly, I think she recognized this after her initial outburst and saw an opening. If not for the outburst, and the wildly unsportsmanlike conduct, I probably would have given her the win in this situation anyway so she could have a day 2 for the first time. Instead, I felt attacked and pressured by the possibility of another outburst if I refused to concede. So I did. At the end of the day, I have myself to blame for that, but this was the most deeply uncomfortable I've ever felt during a match. Pokemon should be a welcoming game and players should never be villainized for trying to clarify rules with judges and reach amicable resolutions. And no competitor "deserves" an outcome more than someone else for any other reason than the result of each game itself. In no way do I want to minimize the struggles my opponent may have with anxiety or other mental illness. My wife has chronic anxiety and I am deeply aware of the challenges and complexity that brings to everyday life. I hope my opponent is getting the help she needs, but that NEVER gives anyone license to lash out or raise their voice at other players. The last thing I want is a "witch hunt" for this person; I'm sharing my story in the hopes that it can prevent other players from ever feeling this way. It's important to advocate for yourself and not to let your opponent make you feel guilty for trying to make sure the game is played fairly. Your opponent doesn't "deserve" a win any more than you do, regardless of how long they've been playing or how badly they say they want it. And don't be afraid to report your opponent for unsportsmanlike conduct. I've spoken to some judges to try and prevent this from happening to other players. This soured the whole day for me, so I'd appreciate any chance to share my experience in greater detail if it can help avoid this kind of thing in the future. Thanks for reading

@Orca_Iguana @nestapendragon Yes I know, that's why I said I understand what they're going for. But the card is not worded well.

@Fridgemuffin09 @nestapendragon This is the same formatting as zaxara. X cost determines x. Much like how x spells don't define x, because the x is in the spell.

Okay, but, what is X? Did they forget some words?

@kahlua_bomber @nestapendragon That does not determine X. Like I said, I get what they're going for, obviously it's whatever you paid into X for the other spell, but that's not how the card is worded

@Fridgemuffin09 @nestapendragon Yes you can, Read the first line again
