Yeah. This game makes you pay for not getting Ambushes. Not as drastically as SMT IV, but it is painful.

At least SMTIV gave you "infinite" continues!

I'm fine with relying on Ambushes, since it's tied heavily to the Shadow Thief theme. But it's a great way to drain my SP, especially when some enemies are so tough they need multiple All-Out Attacks to kill, and if they get a turn they one-shot someone.

Basically, while the minibosses don't help, it's mostly Berith's fault. FUCK YOU BERITH

So when I saw there was free DLC for a harder difficulty setting, I thought maybe hard mode would be fine for a first play through.

No fucking way, I'm nearing the end of the first dungeon and minibosses and random enemies can just one-shot people and I'm only a level or two behind.

Though maybe this is a P4 situation where the first dungeon is stupidly difficult for no reason and the rest of the game is fine.

Edit: actually it seems that hard mode rreduces experience and money in addition to buffing enemies so that's extra dumb

Imagine that happening with Primordial Glyph. Instant quest complete.

This is why I honestly am interested in Mage

Time Warp Arcane Giant sounds sick. But maybe even a regular Tempo Mage could work well with Time Warp and cards like Apprentice/Big Mana Wyrms

Nah man you gotta play the version that plays two Sorcerer's Apprentice, two Molten Reflections, and Antonidas for infinite fireballs.

It's probably extra bad as people are trying to rank up as quickly as possible before the expansion hits and the meta changes.

Especially since the obvious deck to play before the meta is figured out, Pirate Warrior, is going to get shut down by people trying the Taunt Warrior deck.

You can actually make a slight profit if you craft, then disenchant golden commons. If you just have normal commons, you get 40 dust each. If you craft golden ones, you get the crafting cost back, then you can disenchant them for 50 dust each. So 10 dust profit. THE VALUE

So it needs a large down payment, but if you have 2400 dust lying around, free 80 dust!

(also the azure drake dust value is wrong and that image and it makes me mad. should be 900)

Also I'm in the minority if people who actually like the Invocations, I guess. Only gripe is I wish the art was better. The name's are hard to read but I dunno, it looks interesting and the actual playable part of the card is fine. Compare to stuff like Phyrexian Elesh Non which looks super sweet but is 100% unplayable, it's a fair compromise.

Pants Paladin wont be the deck that beats Pirate Warrior, but it could be the deck good against decks that do.

I dunno, maybe I'm being naive but the power level of this set seems really pushed. It's like each class has at least one decent-to-great anti-aggro card. Decent early game plays that are versatile lategame. Completely reasonable neutral taunts at 2, 3, and 4 mana, plus some class taunts. Random pirate hate cards like the crab and ooze. Ben Brode said the meta will change, and I believe him this time. And if it doesn't, they'll nerf Patches or First Mate in a month.

Most of 14's story is single player, too. Every few levels, you will go do a dungeon or boss fight with a party of players through matchmaking, but the actual questing you do by yourself. Only two of those dungeons have a bunch of major cutscenes in them, and they immediately realized what a mistake that was and never did it again.

Heavensward did unfortunately squander ARR's story hooks, but let in a vacuum the story it told is way better than ARR's. The boss fights keep getting better andeal better too.

Agree with this. But Stormblood appears to be picking up on the major remaining dropped hooks, so it might work out.

With Stormblood coming out, it's a good time to get into the game. Heavensward will be included with Stormblood when that releases, so you can wait until then to catch up on the story too if you want.

Oh and I play on Cactuar.

The trailer is fine but a little underwhelming considering this is THE Justice League movie we've been hearing about for half a decade. It feels like just another superhero team up movie, nothing special

But didn't you hear? They call two superheroes "the." That means they're legendsssssss

Batman has been called The Batman basically the entire time the character has been around and it stuck. Feels weird to hear "The Aqua Man" though

And I do still think that JonTron is wildly incorrect about most things he said, all I'm saying is that I don't think that much of what he said was racist or because he is a racist. And you are perfectly welcome to disagree with that.

You don't have to be a white supremacist to be racist, and I think that's where JonTron falls. A lot of the stuff he said was racist even if he doesn't realize it, and it's his willful ignorance that's most disappointing. Best case scenario is that he's an alt-right sucker who is too dumb and stubborn to admit he's wrong, and is also incidentally racist.

They already did The Jungle Book live action, which won awards for the visual effects of its CGI animals and made like a billion dollars

Not to mention, you have to have played an elemental the turn before you want the effect. The way it's worded, you can't even hold a cheap elemental like the new Fire Fly to combo it in the same turn, it's previous turn or bust.

The elemental mechanic looks like it rewards just naturally curving out, which seems a bit win-more, but we'll see.

Sounds like a bad business practice and they're blaming Nintendo for their mistakes.

Yooka-Laylee was also cancelled for WiiU. Much more likely Nintendo is forcing these devs to jump ship.

Murloc Shaman quest seems insane. Murloc 1 drops are already bad, so there's less drawback for skipping turn 1 than in Zoo. Then you'll end up competing it around turn 6 or 7 when you're running out of gas. And play a f***ing 5 mana 8/8 draw 10. Value.

It's also annoying that Zoo, which has always served as a relatively cheap competitive deck, will probably require two class legendaries.

I'm sure there will be a cheaper zoo deck. I'm still not convinced that Zoo wants to run that quest. It's so slow and you're not even guaranteed to get 6 discards in a quick game. I'm more concerned that there's nine "new" (?) archtypes locked behind legendaries. Even if they're not good, it's a little lame.

I kinda like the 7 mana 4/4. It's like a little baby Cenarius and has decent stats for the effect. Probably too unreliable, though.

No, you just play the anti pirate package.

Turn 1 Mixtress. Turn 2 pirate crab. Turn 3 that 1/5 taunt that's a 3/5 on their turn. Turn 4 class taunt like the warlock discard one.

Then you lose against decks that aren't pirates! Now that's a metagame.

Likewise if you're going to play a zoo Warlock there's no reason to not put the discard package in. Sure you might not include that package if you're playing a control deck or highlander but it doesn't exactly inspire creative deckbuilding.

Not true! A theoretical Zoo Warlock deck might not run that card because for Zoo style, playing Flame Imp on turn 1 could just be better. I think the problem would be Standard not having the support for a traditional Zoo playstyle to compete with this (especially with PO gone). But in Wild, this is a new archetype. The discard Taunt card makes me think they're trying to make it a distinct archetype in Standard, too. In a way, your complaint is really about the Standard card pool. With cards leaving, there's always less decks to build and new, powerful cards edge out older stuff that can't compete.

I think you're right on Priest and it's much more of a no-brainer to include in your deck, but you can still go Reno-style with the quest as a replacement Reno or just all-in on Deathrattle Priest trying to trigger the quest ASAP and live to play N'zoth or something. Or both if you're super greedy! It does look like that Quest is gonna go in every Priest deck, but with dragons leaving the alternative is probably no Priest decks.

On another note, new Elise is hilarious. I love it.

Is real bad. What is that expression? Witcher 3 came out a couple years ago, huge open world game, much smaller studio, and the faces in this are a total joke compared to it.

Witcher 3 has its own set of weird bugs and graphical errors, though. It feels like a lot of games do! I've seen some of the stuff you're talking about and it's fun for a laugh but I dunno, this is sort of the occasional thing I've come to expect from big games. Especially Mass Effect; it's not like these games were already known for their stunning animations. Only weird thing to me is how we're seeing this stuff before the game is even out.

I still think it's Tirion just because he provides such excellent value on his own with no help. Fandral goes above that but needs to be comboed with other cards, but the snowballing is huge. Fandral Nourish is a hell of a thing.

It depends on if you can find it for MSRP, too. I got my MM2 box for a good price and made back my money since I won the Goyf lottery, but I was also drafting it with friends so I wasn't too concerned with the value. This set looks better on value but stores seem to be hiking up the price.

If you want to just crack packs then go for it, but if there are specifics you want then just buy singles a few weeks in.

Yeah if last MM was anything to go by, the price spikes will be crazy for stuff that missed a reprint. Probably a good idea to buy things you want asap if they arent in. I'm probably gonna bite the bullet on Hierarchs tomorrow if they're out.

Not counting aether vials out just yet since I don't think we know the exact number of hybrid cards, but it's not looking good and it's not really on-theme. They'll probably get crazy high.
