Yeah, the fact they don't really get agency with what they big block on those chains seems so hard to work around

MCDMars @mcdmars.bsky.social · 10h

All in all, 2-3 isn't the best result in the world but hey, I don't make many of these things and definitely needed to see these matchups away from home

MCDMars @mcdmars.bsky.social · 10h

R4 ☠️ Slippi - Against a local player, he really stepped up his deck and game this PQ, I got blasted by disruption and bad arsenals

R5 ☠️ Cindra - The mirror, I got blown out with some blocks I made in the mid game and probably didn't block enough on their huge turn

R2 ☠️ Florian - Just not used to the matchup. Tried mopl, could never get the value, didn't bring claw, I know what I'm doing next time

R3 🔥 Verdance - This one surprised me. They messed up a bit of math on their combo turn, left me at 1, was able to finish up the game next turn cycle

Gonna report the day here, I had fun, wasn't the best result in the world but just gonna make some adjustments in deck and play before the next one!

R1 🔥 Pleiades - Newer player, wasn't fully used to blocking out mask so was able to get it often

Cont.

Feel like I high rolled a bit too much to learn much from the games, but picking spots to bait prevention for flick came up a bit

Cindra for PQ prep

R1 🔥 Slippi, I took a dreact package and drew 3 in their pivot turn, so was able to hold tempo from there

R2 🔥Ira, newer player who still is learning how to block mask

R3 🔥 Maxx, Player dropped

R4 🔥 Kayo, discarded BRB at a pivotal moment, RIP

Yeah I see the general idea floating about, but I wasn't thinking like actually make it mechanically difficult, more just a social engineering warning!

A pker-like boss trying to lure and scam player-like NPCs. In between combat phases you gotta tell the player NPCs how to deal with different lure and scam attempts to remove a shield or something.

When hobbies clash. I realistically should be doing pq prepping, but also on osrs I've got clan bingo so I mean... Vet'ion my beloved, see you for another 50 hours

Knowing your new pet deck is cope but you keep winning so you can't prove it

I haven't changed the deck itself in like, at least a month or two, today there was a couple of really weird hands coming up with like, 3 1 for 5s. Gonna chalk it up to variance here but maybe it's a *bit* dense in those

MCDMars @mcdmars.bsky.social · 10d

Armory recap: more Cindra

R1: 🔥 Tuffnut - so much lost value on toughness for them, seems rough
R2: 🔥 Gravy - she misplayed on a spreading turn and got a bit tilted
R3: 🔥 Riptide - wrath is a hell of drug
R4: 🔥 Ira - wrath is a hell of a drug, the sequel

Clean 4-0!

If it makes you feel any better, the rest of my pulls were god awful, and Hunted and High Seas treated me terribly

MCDMars @mcdmars.bsky.social · 21d

So I did terrible in the #fabtcg #superslam prerelease, Lyath just ain't my hero, but one pull was certainly pretty good!

I don't necessarily like winning the way I did game 3 but at the same time, punishing misplays as much as possible is what you gotta do in this game and it was valuable matchup experience for the gravy opponent

MCDMars @mcdmars.bsky.social · 23d

Armory recap cause it's been a while. Cindra seems to be the deck for now

Dio W - Tried mopl, game lasted 3 turns lmao
Jarl W - Ended 1 to 1 in the BRD waiting room cause flick knives was gone and got there
Gravy W - Opponent misplayed early and she was just shook rest of the game

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

Windows Notepad, the native simple text editor, now has formatting options and a Copilot button.

Ooh, there's sellers on cardmarket that do these fairly cheap so I'll definitely give them a go, seems to be standard sized which is ideal for me!

Aight who able to give good sleeve recs that aren't ultimate guard or dragon shield

rachel🎃kendra @rachelkendra.com · Aug 3

i really like ultimate guard boulders and katana sleeves. too bad i'm never buying any of them ever again.

a set of four Ultimate Guard Boulder deck boxes, each themed around a different house from Harry Potter, a series of books written by one of the most outspoken transphobes in the world, who uses her immense platform and wealth to demonize and directly harm trans people.
