![]() Meanwhile, Renegade Freighter is a three-drop that can attack for five mana with trample, but unfortunately, it only has three toughness before it attacks, which leaves it open to a lot of removal like Harnessed Lightning and Fiery Temper.įinally, we actually have some solid two-drops, which are fine on their own and even better when crewing Vehicles. Ovalchase Dragster works well with our "deal some early damage and then finish the game with Flame Lash" plan, doing a good imitation of Ball Lightning and acting almost like a burn spell. Ovalchase Dragster and Renegade Freighter are close to being Standard playable but so far haven't broken through. While it's unfortunate that we only have one copy, when we happen to draw it, our odds of winning goes up. Fleetwheel Cruiser is a legitimate Standard staple and was recently seen wreaking havoc in Vintage. The second powerful part of our deck is the Vehicles. ![]() So, ideally, we'd get a fast start, deal some early damage with our creatures, and then finish our opponent off by throwing some Flame Lashes at their face. While we have some overcosted, clunky creatures, we do have a handful of aggressive on-curve creatures as well. The most likely way Planeswalker Deck Chandra can steal a game is by drawing multiple copies of Flame Lash. ![]() While a deck can get away with being a bit worse than the opponent's deck here and there, when this happens consistently at just about every point on the curve, winning becomes difficult. While it might seem like I'm trying to be funny, these cards illuminate one of the biggest challenges of playing a planeswalker deck against real Standard decks: at just about every point on the curve, our cards are just a little (or a lot) less efficient than our opponent's cards. Even better, Skyswirl Harrier is pretty much the Planeswalker Deck version of Archangel Avacyn, minus the flash, the ability to make things indestructible, and the ability to flip around and wrath the board, and with three power instead of four. While it might be lacking a point of power and the ability to loot, they are otherwise pretty much the same card (although when our opponent has a literal Smuggler's Copter, our Sky Skiff doesn't do much of anything). The good news is that we get our very own version of Smuggler's Copter in Sky Skiff. Sure, it costs five mana and is sorcery speed, but it at least gives our deck an out to creatures like Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet. ![]() Liberating Combustion, on the other hand, gives us a way to find our Chandra, Pyrogenius when we want it (which is rare) but, more importantly, kills just about anything in the format. While it can theoretically kill a creature (or even the opponent), costing six mana is a ton for a deck that really wants to be curving out with aggressive creatures. As such, instead of talking about individual card choices, we'll just have some general thoughts and impressions about the Chandra, Pyrogenius deck and some of the challenges that come with playing a Planeswalker Deck in Standard.įirst off, Chandra, Pyrogenius herself isn't very good, especially considering that the deck is built to be aggressive, similar to the RW Vehicles deck that's popular in Standard. Usually, this is where we talk about the brew and some of the choices in the deck, but that feels weird this week, since we are playing a preconstructed deck straight out of the box. Against the Odds: Planeswalker Deck in Standard (for Science) Deck Tech If you enjoy the Against the Odds series and the other video content here on MTGGoldfish, make sure to subscribe to the MTGGoldfish YouTube Channel. So, we're going to give the Chandra, Pyrogenius Planeswalker Deck the Against the Odds treatment and see if the straight-out-of-the-box deck has what it takes to compete in Standard, for the sake of science! If you miss the Against the Odds poll, don't worry-you'll find a new one at the end of the article, and rather than being all Kaladesh like the past few weeks, we'll get back to normal with a mixture of formats and cards!Īnyway, let's get to the videos, but first a quick reminder. Well, with Kaladesh, the intro product switched to Planeswalker Decks, featuring brand-new legal-in-Standard cards, including two new planeswalkers! Richard and I battled the Kaladesh Planeswalker Decks against each other, and it seemed clear that the Chandra, Pyrogenius decks was the more powerful of the two. Welcome to episode fifty-eight of Against the Odds! Last week, we didn't have an Against the Odds poll, and for good reason: today, we have a special episode! In the past, every set brought with it Intro Packs-preconstructed decks for new players.

That being the case, there's really no sense to restricting it to our modern perception of what that geographic entity should be since that perception is mostly historical accident. The rest of the de-jure Empires in the game are there to give the player something to do, and perhaps to represent possible entities that might've emerged had someone really conquered that much land. Other rulers might've been more powerful than them at given times, but they were generally not considered empires unless they could claim legitimacy of descent from a previous empire (which is why it was such a big deal in the ERE when Charlemagne was crowned emperor, or why, hundreds of years later, the first Ottoman sultan took the title of "Kaisir"). (I think one of the Spanish kings briefly styled himself as emperor, but that didn't last/wasn't really recognized). In the CK2 time-frame, probably the HRE, the ERE, and the Caliphate. The title of an "Empire" is questionable in the ancient world, the only two real emperors would've been in Rome and Persia, I think. Also, can you imagine the border gore? It would be terrifying. There'd be titular emperor's everywhere, since there wouldn't be any de jure land underneath them. I just think that from a game balancing perspective, it would create more problems than it solves if the game didn't implement the standards required for creating empires. It wouldn't make sense that I can invent a title by fusing both countries (who don't share any culture or even religion) together.Įdit: I understand that half of the empires in CK2 are just made up, and that the title Emperor is sort of made up too. If I become the king of half of Italy and the king of half of North Africa then that is exactly what I am, a double king. But it makes sense that in order to call yourself Emperor of a nation you need to own certain land. I was just being a bit facetious by using the Emperor of Britain title as an example.

Fuck it who cares) your character will latch onto it like a country fried county fair baby latching onto its mother's teet. When in a big fight it will literally have you dashing around from enemy to enemy without so much as touching the actual joysticks. When you're trying to focus an enemy or simply just run to one, it will target and attach you to every friggin thing under the sun except what you're actually trying to reach. It spins! It flips! It goes behind trees! What's that you say? You seek to hit that shielded grunt thats stabbing your face hole? Well here, let us give you this super close up view of a boulder so you can't see a damn thing! Woot! □□□□Īnd your absolute biggest enemy in the game? Its controls. You try any other way and it's a loss because they'll just spam attacks that force you to dodge nonstop and not actually giving you time to attack. There are no other fun alternative tactics like dodging and then slicing at them from behind or whatever because they're designed to only be defeated in that specific way. With the drake you have to hit it in the face with ranged attacks to kill it the elemental graug you have to hit it in the face to stun it and kill it cause otherwise it will just throw or vomit poison all over the place to the point where you can't even walk anywhere without getting diseased. Then there's the enemies that you are forced to kill in a specific way. Not to mention that the ranged guys will spam your from outside your screen at like 5 guys at a time, ugh. So as I'm trying to dodge the trolls and guys throwing javelins, the friggin drake is spewing fire at me nonstop and they keep bringing up prompts not giving you time to actually attack! Sooooooo annoying. There were so many prompts going off that I could barely see the enemy. This was one of the most unpleasant experiences I have ever had in a game ever. Yesterday, I was doing the last mission in act 1 where you have like a million uruks storming this keep thing along with 2 war trolls and a drake. Usually you'll find yourself spamming "A' for invincibility frames rather than actually fighting.fun. This leads to a very frustrating experience because you will often not be able to avoid being constantly hit because you simply can't hit all those prompts at the same time. Main problem is that when you get into a huge battle with literally 50+ uruks (which is awesome btw, don't get me wrong), onstead of just having mainly the counter button like the first game, your screen will fill with prompts for every single button on the entire planet. Kinda like the first game, but they made it waaaaaay worse. So basically it comes down to spamming attack while getting prompts to hit A, O or Y in order to counter incoming attacks. I'm using a ps4 controller on PC so its all xbox references. I had the same problem with the first game but this one takes the combat and cranks it to 11.īutton mashing accompanied with QTEs.

The note-taking app is known for its cloud sync feature. Growly bass makes me think of fretless, cant describe it in words but a bit like the growl builds after the onset of the note then fades away leaving the pure tone for the decay phase. The notes you have saved on Google Keep can be accessed from any other computer or smartphone through your Google Account. Upon startup, Growly Notes for Mac immediately brings up a note containing a tutorial, which was very helpful since there were a number of options and features. Growly Notes brings a OneNote-like interface and lots of features to the Macfor free. A top menu contains buttons for the main options, from creating a new notebook to changing colors. The interface could have benefited from larger text or more appropriate graphics for the buttons, to assist new users. During testing, creating a new note was easy. The program allows users to add almost anything to a new note, including pictures, PDF images, and text. While notebooks can be saved and exported, there is no direct link to things like smartphones, which is a feature present on most competing applications. It's also not really clear if active technical support is available, but the program does support updates. Growly Notes for Mac functions well as a note-taking application, but lacks some of the cross-platform features of competing programs.Growly notes is a notetaking app somewhat like microsoft onenote. The arch-nemesis of OneNote went down in a lot of peoples’ estimations since limiting free users to syncing across just two devices. gather text, images, links and anything else you can think of in freeform pages organized into sections. That’s true across Windows, Mac, Android and iOS, Evernote’s four platforms. However, if two devices or less are all that you need, Evernote remains a comprehensive option among OneNote.
