Color, then type, then cost. So all black one mana creatures are in one section, for instance. Key/valuable cards are all in a binder, this is the rest.

Hey Bluesky, what are your favorite video game soundtrack songs, the ones that live rent-free in the back of your mind? In no particular order, mine are probably - Travelers from Outer Wilds - Dreams Aloft from FFXIV - The main theme from Hollow Knight - Tarrey Town from BoTW

And that's wraps on 7.3 MSQ! No spoilers obviously, but I felt like this was a Very strong patch, both from the writing and the fight design. Haven't tried the EX yet, but I'm going to be going in as soon as I can find free time. Overall, I can't wait to see what 7.4 has in store.

Never didn't have it. One day till reset and I found a deck that clicks post rotation. I'm eager to see how the meta works out, but I'm happy to keep jamming WTokens till then. I ended up in diamond for limited, but I Really wish arena had ranked Bo3 draft for that last push.

Here's a controversial one, most likely. I bounced so hard on the combat in ME1 that I've never been back to the series. No real opinion on it at all beyond that. If I had infinite time and energy, I'd probably go back and try it again, but I've never had a compelling reason to.

Oh gods, it's been so long since I played this that I had to look it up. Great color scheme and concept on a very interesting twist on rougelikes. I should probably give it another chance in the near future.

Very few things have fulfilled my "I wanna be a support" fantasy as much as being a tiny little spotter mech in Mech Warrior Online. Jenner? Commando? I can't remember which, but it was a blast, and I've always had a soft spot for it as a result.

Civilization as a series remains one of the game series I wish I had childlike patience to get back into. I remember playing civ 3 for Hours at a time, and right now I just look at the whole thing and it all turns into a mess that I can't hold straight in my mind.

Tales looks like the kind of game I'd have been Way too into if I was a playstation kid instead of a nintendo kid. FF9 is a game I'm Praying for a remake of. the story looks amazing, I just want all the modern QoL stuff a remake/remaster brings when I jump into it.

DO NOT CLICK THE ENVELOPE/INBOX TAB IN ARENA IF YOU ARE DRAFTING It will start an unskippable cutscene advertising Edge of Eternities. The only way to get out of it faster and not miss your picks is to restart the entire client. You can't exit via the settings menu. You have to force-close it.

MTG Commander thought. if you're playing a commander in bracket 3 who doesn't draw cards, and your opening hand is sol-ring arcane signet and ramp with not clear payout, do you keep it and full send it? or ship it/ slow play it to not become a target when you can't deal with any threats yet?

A week later, and I'm very happy to report that I'm vibing quite nicely with Beneath the Dragoneye Moons and can easily recommend it as a Very different end of the genre from DCC. It's much slower paced and watching Elaine grow into her skills and role as a healer has been excellent.
