I play it on the deck all the time and it's fine, graphics turned down to potato but they still look decent, and the FPS stays good in all but the most insane of situations (I play on difficulty 8/9, so I'm experiencing the most enemies possible). Only "hard" part is there's no aim assist for controller so the high precision weapons like snipers are harder to use, but that doesn't stop me from trying haha
Idk about accuracy, but if you take 10,000 shots and only 10% of em hit, you're still crushing the scorcher betas in hit count 🗿
When they see my "Shots Fires" and "Shots Hit" stats 😎😳 (the sickle has crazy rate of fire) (my kills are in the bucket)
Hell yeah let's fuckin' goooooo. I came back from a month break to put in an operation to save the kids
Well, 2, since you have 3 opponents and myriad doesn't make a token for the original you're attacking. So it's puts it closer to on-level for 3 mana green ramp, but getting extra attackers and all the eldrazi spawn synergies is still great
Yep, notably this doesn't have all the basic land types like nearby planet does, which both means it can't produce any color with a simple tap, and also means it doesn't auto-fulfill all your domain with one land. It's not strictly worse since Nearby has the Rupture Spire pay 1 clause, but Nearby is overall way more powerful assuming you can take advantage of domain-type abilities
I regularly use 4 wireless Xbox controllers for this exact purpose, and it works great. There's always the occasional Bluetooth quirks, but overall it's seamless
So now we're making actual people into magic cards eh?
I know he was in the assassins creed games, but it's still funny to have an actual historical figure as a magic card. Can't wait for my Teddy Roosevelt mono-green commander!
Hate everything about this, and I've been a secret lair diehard from day 1. I love the cool art treatments, I buy the overpriced basic lands, I really enjoy the crossovers even when I don't personally care about the property, overall a big fan. But what I do NOT like is turning it into hyper-FOMO "buy quick or never get it again!!" bullshit. Having them be limited to the sale was fine because you got like a month to think about it, being forced to buy it in the first (day? Hour? Minute??) or else the stock disappears means I won't bother, I respect myself too much for that nonsense.
We did get a dredge card fairly recently in [[Shenanigans]], the key here was a niche (but okay priced) effect + a low dredge number. Brings it more in line with the original "fair" use of dredge (re buying useful cards)
Bought Portal 1 + 2 for my love, they'd never played them before and they're tied for my all-time favorite game so couldn't pass it up for $1.98. Plus always on the lookout for co-op games to play :D
For me, I finally bought Cyberpunk 2077, although funnily enough I decided to buy it on GoG since they're the actual developers of the game. Is working perfect through Heroic so far, although to be fair I've only made it just past the intro
Oh thank goodness. Locust God is my baby, and I'm very happy with my Italian foil copy I have right now, but I was considering if I wanted this to have it. But no way I'm spending $200 for it lol
Oh shiiiit, Nagas are becoming snakes! Finally the tribals can make sense!
Woah that's a cool take on Act of Treason! You want to actually hit with what you steal instead of just sac it or whatever. (Granted you probably still sac it, but at least you have the one extra hoop).
Ha nice! Cool to see another Skullbriar effect after all this time. I like that all the counters she can give herself are useful without being oppressive
Crazy that Binding of Isaac is still in there, it's been years since the last release and it's not really in the public consciousness the same way something like Vampire Survivors is. Fantastic game though, happy to see it continue to succeed
Since it's silver-border it falls under silver-border judging rules, which states "C'mon, friend, you know what a toy is, don't be a cheese"
Got to play Cthulhu Wars with 3 friends, one was brand new and two had played two years ago so pretty fresh all around. I had a lead as Daemon Sultan, but made a greedy ritual play and got punished hard. New player playing black goat had the win in the bag with a ritual and 6 gates, but decided not to ritual and play with her food. She ended the next (final) round with zero gates and Cthulhu took the win instead lol
Agreed, I love em. My only complaint is we've only had one set of them so far, and while there's a few standouts ([[Invasion of Segovia]] in Locust God is nasty), overall they were obviously designed on the safer side. Excited to see where the design space leads as they get more confident in the card type
Help, is Anyone able to get the GoG version of Bauldurs Gate 3 running on the deck?
Hello y'all, I'm at my wits end. I got the GoG version of BG3 (cause DRM free yay!), but for the love of me I cannot get it to work. I've done so much googling and so many workarounds, I've installed .net, I've skipped the launcher, I've used the alternate .exe, I've tried proton experimental and 8 and hotfix, but nothing has got me even as far as a loading screen. I just get a flash of black then crashed back to desktop. If anyone has any insights or help I would greatly appreciate it, I'm using Heroic right now but honestly I'll do whatever to get this thing working.
[AITA] My playgroup defederated with me
So my playgroup used to play at our friend Chris's house, but lately we had to leave due to his iron-fist policy regarding "leaving with our deck instead of letting him keep them at his house". One of my friends had heard of the "USS Federationverse", and it sounded kinda the same so we all immediately jumped in!
I really try to bring my own flavor and spin to my decks, by commissioning tasteful proxies of barely-clothed waifus (they're actually 800 years old so it's all okay). My artistic passion is so great I'd even swap out my friends cards with properly-jiggly replacements when they went to the bathroom.
But now, my friends said it's "weird", or "inappropriate", or "maybe you shouldn't given the pending court case". I just kept following my heart, but lately I've been showing up and noticing that their decks and plays are the same as last week's. I finally got to the root of it, and they've defederated from me! When I cornered one of them with my bulk to politely (but alpha-y) ask why, they said some nonsense like "defederation is our only real option" and "we don't want sex offenders in our community". Despite my repeated reminders of my first amendment rights they won't budge, and now I'm stuck playing the same old games from them over and over. AITA, or should the fediville be reworked so that I can do what want?
Favorite Killer?
Figure this could be a fun topic! Who's your favorite Killer, either to play as or play against? Bonus points, share your build!
For me, my favorite still has to be Singularity to play as, its ability is super flexible, with applications in cross-map info and chases. Plus its voice lines do a great job of showcasing both cold calculation and absolute disdain. I run a pretty basic build, Nowhere to Hide, No One Escapes Death, Fearmonger and either Thrilling Tremors or BBQ and Chili, haven't settled on which I like better. My favorite add-ons are the blindness within biopod one, and the one that makes survivors scream when they cleanse slipstream. (Funniest perk combo: the purple that makes the first EMPs take longer and everyone starts streamed, + the one that streamed survivors hear the terror radius constantly. Psychological warfare from the jump!).
To play against... I think I have to say Ghostface. He turns the game on its head by never having a terror radius, so you really gotta look around all the time to keep an eye out, and the paranoia that brings is very thrilling.
Anyone Else Excited for Red Dust Rebellion?
Longshot I know, being an unreleased game in a niche genre in a niche BG community on a niche platform lol.
But it's looking like we might get it this year, or early next year at the latest. I signed up for the P500 like a year and a half ago, and every month or so I remember it and go check for any updates.
I've never played a COIN before, but I know they're very highly regarded and I'm interested to try. And the theming is totally my jam, I love sci-fi, and I love the interplay and implied stories between the 4 factions.
Anyone else want to be excited together? :D
What are your favorite Reanimator targets?
Nothing is better than getting some big groan-worthy guy for cheap, and the best part is since the grave is public your opponents see it coming!
I've got a Sidisi, Brood Tyrant commander list, and some of my favorites are:
Archon of Cruelty: Classic value dude. Gets you stuff immediately, hits for 6 in the air, and continues to cause problems every turn he's alive. He's usually the best option.
Ancient Brass Dragon: Reanimate a Reanimator! Honestly kinda slow, not to mention inconsistent, but I got the extra large Bauldurs gate d20 and it's just so fun to roll!
Dreadfeast Demon: what if my zombies were demons instead? Obviously requires some work to make sure you have fodder, but even if your entire board gets eaten having a board full of 6/6s with evasion is a pretty good spot to be.
Graaz, Unstoppable Juggernaut: But what if instead of demons, they were Juggernauts?? Transforming everyone as soon as he arrives makes Graaz a big aggro play, and depending on boardstate may take out a player or two on the same turn. I've even had the "can't be blocked by walls" text be relevant (take that fog bank!)
So what are your favorite bigguns to bring back from the dead?

When do you use Iri add-ons?
Title. I'm relatively new to the game, only a few weeks in. I can see the power of Iridescent add-ons (silent bell as Wraith?? Woof!), but they are so expensive and rare I have no idea when to actually use them. I'd "save" them for an important game, but... it's always just random opponents, so I have no idea if the Iri would be good or if I would stomp/get stomped either way and it's a waste. Curious to hear from people who do use them, when do you decide to do it?
