@wildstwawberry Once you realize that with the London mulligan mulling to 5 is not a death sentence, you improve a lot.
More people should mulligan more often

@Zennistrad Never forget when they revealed chandra was gay in war of the spark, and then made her more ambigiously straight with some of the cringiest internal monologue of all time, and then made a dogshit boilerplate apology after.
Man forsaken (and war of the spark novel) sucked

WotC's big problem is that they pretend to be progressive while still being the kind of company to hire the literal Pinkertons to intimidate leakers
But the way these guys would have you believe it's that they actually are radical leftist SJWs because they did gay art once

2011 vs. 2026 Magic: the Gathering needs to hire fewer tumblr fan artists and get back to the hard fantasy artwork that made the game great.

@_Jyggalag_ The bad guys are the dark angels (I got absolutely smoked by them last weekend)

Since there's new debate about who the good guys in 40K are I'd like to remind everyone that there are no bad guys in 40K

@MilkPls68 Whatever stupid number dooku used because him using his saber like a rapier is objectively cool

@UsagiKaede1 The playmat has zones (idk why I but I strongly dislike mtg mats with marked out zones) so back down to 10
English
So she's an 11.

@Bulbagarden Also introduced stealth rock, arguably the single most influential move in the entire franchise

Beyond the damage category split - which already did a lot to breathe new life into a range of species - Gen IV is the one that really 'fixed' movepools and gave us so many staple moves that see widespread use today:
Close Combat, Flare Blitz, Nasty Plot, Bug Buzz, Dark Pulse...

19 years ago today, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions were first released for the Nintendo DS in North America! Along with features such as the GTS and a new damage category split, these games began the DS era of core series titles.

@PaPaSea11 They're a time traveler trying to prevent the discovery of a team that creates an unplayable tier 0 strategy that leads to the death of pokemon

@TPWSnacks @perhapsgodot I can confirm your scientific hypothesis. As a kiwi, I can confidently say pass the parcel is a thing here
English
@perhapsgodot NZ would have to, were far too alike to not

Wait I thought everyone played pass the parcel Is it just the UK and australia??? or what
who up perfecting their gimmicks@EmblemOfAcumen
just thought about this post again

@targetplayer Sligh not only changed the way we think about mana, but also card advantage for aggro. It turns out that if you kill your opponent that has 4 cards in hand while you have 0, you were "equal" on card advantage. Cards not played when you die effectively were discarded.
English
Today in Magic history, 30 years ago:
The concept of Mana Curve was unleashed upon the game by a 'goofy' red deck at an Atlanta Standard PTQ.
Paul Sligh tore through a field of mono-black Necro and green-white Geddon with draft chaff greater than the sum of its parts. 🧵

@xaviersonline_ Sandman put up generational numbers and they still hmmm and haa'd over whether or not to Greenlight S2

The fact they wrote Scott Pilgrim Takes Off’s first season to be self-contained because they knew Netflix would cancel it makes me so sad. It just doesn’t matter how good your show is in the streaming era.

@uhavefckinguno @Fritz_Imperial Wan literally immediately punches the air and fire comes out. The lion turtles were an absolutely unnecessary change that just turns bending into good old fashioned magic.
English
@Fritz_Imperial The lion turtles only gave THE ABILITY to bend - the original benders taught the TECHNIQUES to bend. The Wan ep explains this concept.
So people can be benders, but that doesn’t always mean they can execute bending. Turtles gave the power, but OG animals taught techniques.
English
And yet they thought the lion turtles just giving people bending like magic powers was a better origin story than it being an extension of nature.

@Stella_Hoshii The graphic novel series "Amulet" fucks it up so badly it ruins the ending to what was otherwise an awesome series
English
“The appearance of an alien civilization in a swords and sorcery fantasy world”—I’ve always thought this was an interesting and fairly common theme, but there are very few works that actually manage to portray it in an engaging way.
English
@PunishedSmokey @inkymanelo888 Y was easily one of the least interesting games in the series to finish for me. Not awful, but just astoundingly mid.
Also I know theyre designed for barely literate children but holy moly even by pokemon standards it was painfully easy

If you didn’t grow up with pokemon you’re not allowed to rank the games and this is why

We really don’t talk about how much Bungie truly hates Rise of Iron
- Wrath is the only D1 raid not in D2
- Ash & Iron’s existence
- No siva in game, but 1/10 of Eververse cosmetics are Siva related
- The Cosmodrome repairing itself, while being broken during 2018 FOTL
- Retcons

@Saryff1 @Peko_girlboss That is literally Calrex Shadow Riders ability
English
We should get more water bubble-like abilities, where it’s like a mix of two abilities
Imagine harvest + ripen
Or sniper + merciless
Maybe even poison touch + corrosion
It’s a good thing I’m not in charge of game balance
English
can someone answer a maybe dumb question for me about Polymarket / Kalshi / prediction markets? how is it not causing its own version of rampant insider trading? like, if you have inside info something is about to happen, can’t you bet on it and make $$$?
English
@DaimaxREAL Day night is fine when you are building around it, but it annoying that if the Celestus is removed you have to keep track of it for the rest of the game just in case it gets recurred. Not the end of the world, but just annoying. Its a mechanic that sucks to splash
English
My magic hot take is that whining about Day/Night in commander is just announcing that you doom scroll when it's not your turn. "Did a player cast 2 spells this turn" is something that tons of "fine" cards track to no complaints but the minute a werewolf shows up its all groans
