@lsv I love lands and they are the focus of my favorite kinds of 60 card decks. But every draft I do at my LGS a third of the games end in a whimper as one of the two players cannot play at all. Should the number of these sorts of games that happen be higher or lower in your opinion?

@lucidDonald @NileJoanRivers variance is of course inevitable but that doesn't mean we shouldn't want to reduce it in cases where it makes the game worse

@lucidDonald @NileJoanRivers I don't play other tcgs so I don't have a point of reference. In the limited and constructed games I play it just feels like way too common an issue and I wish wotc would address it more aggressively.

@justMizuyuki @NileJoanRivers I guess I would say generally you would want to copy the best things and choose the worse spots to differentiate. Maybe its all a big coincidence but I think its fairly telling that the mana systems of all these other games seem to have been built to avoid the flood/screw issue.

@NileJoanRivers I'm sorry if my comment came off as rude but its a little frustrating that you won't even bother elaborating this issue affects so many matches negatively and people seem to ignore it out of a reflex to defend the game as a whole

@AloePlantation @Slampow1 @prodbyisabelle He's friends with all of the parties involved. Some sort of action was necessary and I think he went about it without vilifying mango any more than he needed to. To say the quite part out loud... I think maybe an "anti-woke" impulse of some sort is clouding your judgment here.

@Slampow1 @switchedtofox @prodbyisabelle It's not about whose fault it is, we aren't deciding who to punish in a court of law Mang0 is obviously responsible for his own conduct Ludwig is responsible for creating the scenario, being a bad friend, and handling it poorly afterward Really not hard to understand

Yes and then you farmed your drunk friend for content and then destroyed his career and the scene with it for more content instead of just owning how stupid an idea it was altogether or in the very least try to downplay or save face for him you just double-downed for content.

in college I became obsessed with smash I wanted to go to tournaments, commentate games, and make videos about it my girlfriend at the time thought it was lame as hell and we broke up shortly after there’s beauty in dedicating a portion of your life to a delusional dream but you need people in your life who will support you

@AloePlantation @prodbyisabelle i felt tempted to do the same "you don't really believe what you are saying" thing you are doing here but ultimately its not productive. the more important thing is that its just not true

@SaffronOlive the fact that this deck has tendrils and no brain freeze makes it even cooler

I think this might be the best Storm deck I've ever drafted.

What are the other 6 cards in this unofficial cycle* that I'm asserting exists? You can also feel free to quibble with the four I've chosen here.

@SaffronOlive Neat card I worry the mana value restriction will be a big issue though

I have written a Melee-themed NYT-style crossword puzzle! It should be about a Wednesday difficulty if you know a lot about SSBM and the community. If not... good luck. You can solve online with answer checking here: downforacross.com/beta/play/29108

@slime_machine @arshgoyal13 Nowadays all the money is in streaming BW streams are very popular in korea. Some top pros (like Rain I think) quit tournaments to stream full time.

Top esports players have long been grossly overpaid, but team owners and executives acting as if they haven’t been complicit in paying those salaries is disingenuous. The entire industry—leagues, teams, players, etc.—all scaled spend faster than growth could keep up.

@The_Hunter_ssb @CONEY It’s ok to just disagree with a review. I don’t think reviewers are lying about their opinions they are just different than yours.

@CONEY Critics are way too harsh on Sonic all because of a select few really bad games in the past. Bringing up past games in reviews of the newest games (Constant reminder of Sonic 06 for example) is both annoying and unprofessional of a game reviewer

@WowEsports Seeding based on ladder rating is not a very good system especially after one week of tournament results. Luminosity/GG for example should obviously not be the 7/10 seeds. Would make for better more exciting matchups for the broadcast portion of the tournament.
