Seriously though, Hit Monkey is absurd, just hit a 22 power one :/

That moment when you lose a match because an opponent makes a move so stupid you couldn't predict it lol

Still gonna beat this spam deck in conquest though

By them retreating apparently

no, they stated definitively thats the interaction they wanted with it

That's so lame, removing turn 6 in general shouldn't be a thing

I thought they fixed Storm into Legion :(

Also new location is a reminder for ADD people how we need a way to track destroyed or discarded cards

I saw a Reddit clip where someone got Nico to 4M power with Wong, Mystique, Nico x2 power ability and Odin

Oh jesus christ now I want to try that

I also want to revisit my Wong/Hazmat/Spectrum deck, if for nothing else then how people would see me drop Mystique and Hazmat T5, think I blew my load and snap, then get Spectrum'd

The She-Hulk combo is nice with Shuri but you already have plenty of cards that are good with Shuri in that deck. Even Ebony Maw with Shuri is only 4 less power than She-Hulk and you don't have to skip a turn to do that.

Shuri on Red Skull is 10 more power and 28 power Taskmaster is silly on turn 6.

While true, Shuri She-Hulk does give you the option to dodge Shang Chi at least - if you don't have initiative when you drop Shuri, that's a big too lost for them.

Then again I thought Vision was not that great for the deck and....I was wrong.

skullbone posted...

She thins out decks and is a bit more consistent.

(Purely theoretical now since as you sad Mobius ruins her)

Is this worth having that extra optional play, especially for such a massively strong deck that never needs to draw any specific cards?

Also I guess now Mobius is the reason but pretend he doesn't exist because this was standard before him too

ok non whining question -

Why is American Chavez a staple in Shuri Sauron over She-Hulk? I understand that she thins out decks and is a bit more consistent, but I MUCH prefer the extra utility SH gives, and Shuri > Skip > She Hulk can win so many games

Hit monkey isn't even a problem. That cost bump to 3 made a big difference he's pretty fair now

Getting 12 power for 3 is not fair regardless how you spin it.

WazzupGenius00 posted...

Wave also smacks him but due to Mobius is pretty absent these days

Thank god for that, another problem card

WazzupGenius00 posted...

oh you think Shadow King is a bad card? Are you time traveling from like six months ago?

He's decent enough tech but he's not good, way too situational. I run him in C3 and I still rarely find use from him.

KommunistKoala posted...

'uncounterable' in a meta where 2 mana shadow king is everywhere is certainly one way to describe it

Shadow King is a generally bad card.

A card should not be balanced by a few off picks or paywalled cards. A card should simply be balanced. Hit Monkey simply provides too much value for his cost for something that can easily be dropped late game with no real way to reliably predict or counter it.

WazzupGenius00 posted...

Mobius M. Mobius counters Hit Monkey almost entirely on his own, what are you even talking about

One single card does not make a card balanced especially when it's effectively locked behind a paywall.

WazzupGenius00 posted...

??? No its not lol

A ridiculous amount of power that can be reliably dropped and virtually uncounterable? Yeah it's broken, especially given how strong his decks are.

Also Hit Monkey is still absurdly broken

If anyone wants to mess with Nico

RikkuAlmighty posted...

You need elsa now and shes still effective

I mean you can definitely do her good with synergy, but on her own she just feels terrible now, they should at least give her some base power imo

FFDragon posted...

wait is it Nico day?

oh man oh man

I don't care if she sucks I'm blowing caches until I get her

She 100% does not suck

Apparently I missed when they gutted Kitty Pride, jesus she's awful now

swordz9 posted...

Any Nico deck ideas?

I've been seeing some nasty move/bounce decks so I'd say that, trying it out now

I managed to get Nico in a single spotlight cache so that's nice

Oh man I just saw nico is getting a drop tomorrow, she looks awesome I might try Cerebro 2

RikkuAlmighty posted...

Just watch out for Killmonger.

I have won so many matches in the back of Invisible Woman into Killmonger

I love just spectating while I work

Jakyl25 posted...

Trust us, we know there havent been any Series drops

It's a shame because the game itself.is positively brilliant and imo could be the best thing to happen to digital ccgs since Hearthstone but....SD is just awful and I'm convinced they're letting balancing slide to push sales.

This was incredibly easy

But seriously, black knight > sif > ghost rider and blade is disgusting and there are VERY few ways to counter it reliably, while every counter can itself be countered by some very cheap utility

swordz9 posted...

Werent people here saying Black Knight was gonna be weak?

I haven't played in months so idk

Fun fact: in two months not a single card has dropped down to the monthly free card level

Unless I happened to have them already which is possible I guess, all I know is I've NEVER gotten a free card from shop

Man every time I try and do conquest I'm reminded how ridiculously unbalanced the game is

Black Knight should never have been made but that can be said about every other new card these days

skullbone posted...

Considering he's useless if you draw him out of your deck I think it's fine. He needs to be OP to justify him being useless if he's drawn.

What you're suggesting could easily lead to massive, free swings. It wouldn't be a small change, that would make him incredibly high tier.

skullbone posted...

If Angel's effect triggers he should revive the card and combine with it like Phoenix Force.

That would be absurdly broken though

Lopen posted...

I actually get the Quicksilver lesson but the hypothetical angel lesson I don't get

Essentially that you're better adding good cards outside your gimmick than adding mediocre cards that match it I guess

WazzupGenius00 posted...

when the game was in beta players complained about not having a mulligan like other card games. Quicksilver basically removes the need for one, but over time many players will realize that you don't really need a turn 1 play, especially if it takes one of your precious 12 card slots. Quicksilver being kind of weak helps accelerate that process

I'm still upset that they removed my C3 turn one play literally right after I discovered it

I found the only possible good use of Hawkeye, and he's STILL bad

AbsoluteUnit posted...

I meant to post this before, but why the fuck did people Rhino/Witch/Reality Stone Fogwells Gym every time it showed up for me?

I dont get mad about games often, but after the fourth time in a row it happened I was literally like whhhYYYYYYYYYY

Meanwhile I was planning to drop Legion in it every game until I found out it doesn't stack >:(

I've moved on to Cerebro 5 because I love me some Man Thing and it's actually really good to the point Cerebro is almost optional lol

Jakyl25 posted...

So whats the real scoop on Swamp Thing and Man-Thing? What exactly happened there?

IIRC, the two creators were roommates and wanted to sell similar characters to each group, but really they're only visually similar. Man-Thing tends to be a much more traditional sympathetic monster, burns people afraid of him but is largely a good guy. Swamp Thing is more of an eco-warrior and his comics tend to be less horror focused(sometimes) but more about questions of humanity and identity and existential dread.

Excellent. I haven't played since Muerta released and the map went nuts, but it's still awesome as a spectator sport.

These team fights in spirit vs vp are INSANE

First game's draft starting now

I haven't played Dota in 5+ years but I do still enjoy watching this. There's only a few new heroes I don't really understand too which is nice!

Yeah thats typically how I feel, I used to play and follow it religiously but now I just come back once a year

The new heroes are pretty cool, I think the only new one since last year is Muerta, but the map itself is so goddamn different

Leonhart4 posted...

But what will I do when I need to make a list with writeups?

Maybe I'll read them to my son as bedtime stories.

I'd say I know your pain but idk if I ever finished any of my big lists, definitely never finished the top 100 fps list

Been watching some of the preliminary matches and they're wild, making me half tempted to actually load up some Dota 2 and play it myself

Leonhart4 posted...

I honestly don't know what I would do if this board went away. I've got 20 years of relationships here, and the idea of trying to start anew elsewhere doesn't really appeal to me.

I guess I'd spend more time with my family or something.

Unfortunately there really isn't anywhere else, I've yet to find a single good forum to actually make friendships, it's all either chat rooms or more social media focused forums like reddit or fb

Lopen is right. If you're grateful to Allen you're in the wrong. End of story, moving on.

Good riddance tbqh

Take the definition of cognitive dissonance and add RuneterrianSnap as an example.

So where's that evidence that it was illegal again? Because so far you have none.

Performing a hand job in an area around children should also be considered inappropriate by anybody with functioning thought processes. An area around anybody who didn't consent to see that as well.

Groping your boyfriend through his pants is not giving a hand job.
