  Speaker 1: Phrasing.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, I purposely I said what I said earlier.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Today we're in brown Town, then we're in pink Stack,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: and you know whatever it all is. But what's going on? Everybody?
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I am the one, the only, the w oh okay?
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I you joined here by the normal cast of misfits.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: We have Napoleon, Dinomite himself, Dexter, Hello, there, the mean one,
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: the noble one, Zach.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: It's untrue, untrue, but thank you. How's it going?
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: We got Ogre?
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: Hey, what's going on?
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Big z Hey?
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Hey, that's me and Cole.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: Hello.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: All right, more to go over this today, but we're
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: gonna first start out with our Unique of the week,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: brought to you by our patreons. Go over, sign up
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: for the Patreon right now. Ze. Well, I'm sure we'll
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: talk more about that later on, but for right now,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: brought to you by our Patreon Patreon dot com forward
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: slash altered corner, Ogre take it away.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: Hey.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: Okay, So this week I kind of decided I just
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: went through and looked at some of what we talked
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: about already, and I was feeling a little patriotic, so
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: I wanted to throw any axiom unique up and I
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: will tell you it's a little bit of a struggle
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: to go through and find one that I thought was
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: like really worth highlighting. So we kind of settled on
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: a like it's almost an entire class of uniques that
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: you see come through in Axiom, and that that's the
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: annazis that are specifically we want to look for the
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: ability here. Stats I'm just gonna skip them. They don't
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: matter because you're here for the ability.
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: Well, I mean you want like lower than like three
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: from and in lower than from reserve.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Sure, but like you're playing axioms, so yeah, probably that's
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: just a thing that you're doing with all your cards. Anyways,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: this announcing that we picked and we kind of we
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: debate that we actually looked at two before we decided
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: on this one, and this was thanks to Dexter pulling it,
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Thank you, sir. The thing that we want to highlight
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: here is that he has an arrow ability on this
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: one that says you may put a card from your
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: hand in reserve first clause that before we even get
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: to the bottom half of that, you're playing axiom. You're
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: turning on your Frankenstein's, you're turning on your tinker bells.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: You're making your Amelia Earhart an unfairly costed card. You're
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: turning on all of your like draw and read resupply tools.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: Like that's good, We've covered that before. That's standard good
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: stuff for Axiom. But then it says if you do
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: put that card from your hand into reserve, I gain
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: a boost for each card in each player's reserve, which
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: is different than the base card, and that normally it's
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: just the cards that in your reserve, right, so you
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: have the opportunity to kind of stack your reserve up,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: use things like Axiom reprocessor and whatever else to dump
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: cards in there. Maybe you're playing Subash and you put
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: one in at the start of your turn, like you
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: can you can pretty easily get an Axiom reserve stack
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: up to like four or five, which is I think
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: pretty much what you can do in uh Lira as well.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Like I don't think I typically see that many more
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: cards in that, even in a fen deck. But then
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: if you think about that, like let's say you stack
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: your reserve up to two or three cards, if you're
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: playing it at the right time, your opponent's got two
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: or three cards in their reserve, that means that you're
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: getting six boosts just for playing the card, right, Like,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: stat wise, you would have to be costed pretty terribly
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: for that not to be good. And in this case,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: I know I said the stats didn't matter, but the
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: one that we're looking at is a is a three
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: to two cost and then has three one one for stats,
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: so you're almost always there are so few situations where
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: this card is not going to bring more stats than
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: it costs you to play it. And the at the
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: very end, there is also a firm reserve ability that is,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: you may put a card from your hand in reserve,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: which in this case, first, yeah you can, you can
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: order the For those that don't know, it doesn't matter
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: the order that triggers are printed on a card. You always,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: as the active player, choose the order that you resolve them.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: So in this case, you would first when playing him
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: from reserve, choose to resolve his from reserve trigger, put
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: a card from your hand into reserve, then you hit
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: his arrow, you put another card from your hand into reserve,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: and then you play a Nazi. So to do the
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: math on this, like Ananzi has to be in your
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: reserve for you to use this ability so effectively, what
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: you're doing is you're replacing him with a card from
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: your hand so that you don't go negative one on
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: your stats. But that's that that could still make the difference, right, Yeah, so.
• 5:16
  Speaker 7: That's still playing a seven five five, assuming you don't
• 5:19
  Speaker 7: even have your havens.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: So yeah, that's just that's without any other support.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: That's that's pretty good.
• 5:25
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Yeah, you're not like that's that's that's beyond Bravos numbers.
• 5:30
  Speaker 7: It's beyond any numbers that you're gonna get just from
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: one card. You don't have to meet any special conditions for.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: That to happen.
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: And that's like not counting whatever their reserve is, Like,
• 5:38
  Speaker 7: that's minimum. It's going to be seven five five in
• 5:42
  Speaker 7: that scenario, which is not a hard to achieve scenario
• 5:45
  Speaker 7: at all.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: There are some weaknesses that you're contending with here that
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: you're not contending with in some of the other places.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Unlike in Bravos, unlike in Muna, you don't really have
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: a ready way to apply tough. You are sitting on
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: a three hand cost body, so you're susceptible to almost
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: all of the removal. You're a super cheap teamwork. You're
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: a caleen burst. Your isn't it is intimidation two or
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: is it three?
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: Intimidation is four or five or less?
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, so intimidation hits you, I mean just all
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: of it. Everything can hit you. And unlike with some
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: other like cheap big body cards that you might try
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: to play, this one requires coordination over the course of
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: an entire turn, right, because you want your reserve stacked
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: to play this card to get maximum value. So normally,
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: when you're playing a low cost big body, you want
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: to delay until the back half of your turn as
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: much as possible. Here, unless you just have a really
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: fat hand, you kind of can't do that. You have
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: to play it up front to get maximum value, which
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: means you're more susceptible to those things that already are
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: hitting you.
• 6:57
  Speaker 7: So I mean, if you're running hooked rare and you're
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: going a second like that, that's something.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, play that. There's don't get me wrong, and there's
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: I've seen some things like I have a reserve stacking deck.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: It's not good. It's just a meme, but it's fun
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: and you can do things like, uh, what second, it's
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: mechanical something. It's one two costed, and the text on
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: it is that you use an arrow ability on one
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: of your permanents, mechanical mechanical training. So you're playing Brown,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: so you're running Haven's, you play your mechanical Training, it
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: goes to reserve. You target your Haven at another card
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: to your reserve, and then you play You're a Nazi
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: and you're now two up for It's basically like spending
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: one mana for two boosts before you play it. But
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: it also gives you you net the point five card
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: draw in there for forgetting this the resupply in. So
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: it's I'm not going to sit here and tell you
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: that it is a game winning strategy that you're gonna
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: be able to take into your local meta, but it
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: is very fun to play, and I do think that
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: there is a world coming up in the next set,
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: maybe the sets beyond where that's sort of because that
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: we've seen this sub theme right like we've seen a Nazi,
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: there's a few other cards that have abilities that care
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: about the depth of your reserve. I think that'll be
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: an archetype that you can kind of play with in
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: the future. So cards like these, if you're collecting Brown uniques,
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: might be something that right now is kind of a
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: mean build that's fun. But in the future maybe they're competitive.
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: I still think this is a pretty competitive card.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Right now, I'd run it car, yeah, if I had
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: I run it.
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: And I mean in the future too, we could see
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: like more heroes that have bigger reserve zones, so these
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: cards get even better.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, just by default. That's something we haven't really
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: spent much time talking about. But if you see somebody
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: that has a native three.
• 8:55
  Speaker 7: Well, it also doesn't have to be a hero to
• 8:57
  Speaker 7: do that, right, Like you're talking about Brown, so like
• 8:59
  Speaker 7: I don't see anything Like I think a completely legitimate
• 9:04
  Speaker 7: Brown landmark could be a landmark that just increases your
• 9:07
  Speaker 7: reserve and your landmark zone by one. That's all the
• 9:10
  Speaker 7: landmark would do. And I think that would be a
• 9:13
  Speaker 7: completely legitimate, viable landmark for Brown.
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: That's what they need.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: It starts to flesh out some strategies that because right now,
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: like when you're playing Brown competitively, you're probably playing Turbo.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: I've seen some Subash decks that are are pretty good
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: that are kind of getting out that direction, but for
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: the most part, like we're kind of locked in on
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: one archetype right now. If you're playing Turbo or Subash,
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: you're running almost the same set of cards. There's just
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: like a robot suite that you know, suben for Subash
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: that you don't have for Turbo. But cards like that
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: could open up some additional archetypes for us to start
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: kind of playing and testing out new things that would
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: be really cool.
• 9:51
  Speaker 7: Yes, and that same landmark could like out of Fact
• 9:54
  Speaker 7: and over to Lira because they do that reserve thing too, So, like,
• 9:57
  Speaker 7: I think that's a slot in the game design that
• 10:00
  Speaker 7: definitely needs to be explored to Like, if we know
• 10:03
  Speaker 7: the hero new heroes aren't going to be out for
• 10:05
  Speaker 7: a while, they could definitely still increase our reserve in
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: our landmarks through actual cards.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: And we've seen we've seen gear now as well, right,
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: so you could have maybe could do that. Yeah, it
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: gives you that temporary additional reserve and or landmarks slot,
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: but then as soon as you advance in that lane,
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: it goes to reserve, so you lose you lose that slot.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: But that's still a cool design space.
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that's something that they could do without
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: necessarily going to the hero mark because we know it
• 10:37
  Speaker 7: to be a while until we get heroes that are new,
• 10:39
  Speaker 7: and so there's still a lot of things they can
• 10:41
  Speaker 7: do with all of the elements of the game with
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: just landmarks, because they really have not done that much
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: with landmarks. I was expecting more, like I honestly hoped
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: there would be uniques for all cards, right, Like it
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: would have been fun to have unique spells, and like
• 10:55
  Speaker 7: Brown needs unique landmarks like real bad.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: And maybe maybe that will be something that comes down
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: the line. I think they kind of were a little
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: bit scared of it, honestly, because, like, permanents are a
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: little bit different than a regular card, where you can
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: only expect to see, you know, that that one tug
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: of war and then it's hitting reserve and you know,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: maybe you play it again, maybe get sabotage whatever. A
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: permanent's kind of there until it gets removed.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Until you which I think everyone has that. Well, who
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: has at Lyra has a cocoon that moa, that's it cocoon.
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: So it's just none that.
• 11:35
  Speaker 8: Is good and it's just the best stick us.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah sticky, not so the rest of us deal with.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: You've got foreign under and then you've got four and up.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: It's the split, and right now all the permanents that
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: most people care about removing are foreign under but we're
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: starting to see some of the like larger ones terrorize
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: our friend Coal, so maybe we'll see more like or
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: permanent hate in the future. But Klofka, who doesn't have
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: to pick which is I think where a lot of
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: it's like power and flex comes from.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Speaking of that, did you ever finish those ten games
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: in one day?
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: I know because I got the tournament, so I got
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: six in and you didn't.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: You didn't go up against one single of Kesha during
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: that time.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: Nope, I because there's so there's not.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: A separation based on like elo right, So it just
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: makes no sense how we have wildly different matchups all
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: the time.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: I have a giant blue shaped or colored target on
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: my back where it's like if I log in, they're
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: gonna throw every blue that they can find in the
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: pool at me. I don't know how they flag it.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: Probably it's something just like in the metadata for my
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: board game Arena account, like this guy loves to play
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: into ortis.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I set your settings that way. I'm sorry about that.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: I have gone again that Akesha deck and slightly won
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: a faunas four times.
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: This week alone. I rarely see I see a fauness.
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: I don't see a catcha that much and that.
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: But never the bastion build. So I don't know why
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: you're running into that one so much.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: I don't know the same setting, but this isn't set
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Tortoise's state.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll we'll talk about it later, but yeah.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: I think you have it's creeping out to click. It's
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: a difficult creeping up on. That's the you gotta you
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: gotta turn down your difficulty setting is what it is.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: You got to go from hard to easy. I wish
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: all right, let's move into our next segment, Why I
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Suck It Altered, brought to you by Carl's junior Dexter.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Tell us why you Suck it Altered today?
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So, I mean, I do have a limited collection,
• 13:59
  Speaker 6: Like I don't have all the yet, and I don't
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: have any great uniques, but I've been putting some uniques
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: into my decks that are definitely subpar, and putting those
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: uniques into decks that are probably better than commons but
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: worse than rares. Are fine, and it makes sense for
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: the deck construction, but in actual like gameplay, a lot
• 14:19
  Speaker 6: of times I just keep them in my hand and
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: like play them every time, and it does not make
• 14:24
  Speaker 6: sense to do that a lot of the times, and
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: I should just throw it away in the resource if
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: I have better cards to play or other things that
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: are more useful. So just like knowing that uniques can
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: be good, but sometimes you just have to get rid
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: of them if they're not what you need in the
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: moment is very important.
• 14:44
  Speaker 7: I have to, like on second this because I have
• 14:47
  Speaker 7: a couple of decks that have really good uniques. But
• 14:50
  Speaker 7: like sometimes when you draw your two cards given the
• 14:54
  Speaker 7: game state, like you have to put them in your
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: manna because if you hold on to them, like you
• 14:59
  Speaker 7: have a dead turn and the like mid game, which
• 15:02
  Speaker 7: is basically like you know, turns four through six, Like,
• 15:06
  Speaker 7: you cannot get double pushed in the game in a
• 15:08
  Speaker 7: lot of decks unless you're wa and afford to win.
• 15:13
  Speaker 7: So like sometimes you have to get rid of those
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: shiny gold cards to you know, not get wrecked.
• 15:19
  Speaker 8: We even mean hard.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: We we well, when we were watching the was it
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: ace or was it a Wall last week where you
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: thought that Pluka had ditched his super quets when it
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: really got sabotaged, but you had made the point like
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: he couldn't even play that at this point because of
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: the cost, right he was going to get double pushed.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: So like case in point, like we almost sought live
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: except for that he actually did get it sabotaged rather
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: than have to manicize it.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: So and it's it's tempting, right, It's hard because like
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: your user, your cool like card that nobody else can have.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: So when you see it in your hand, it, I
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: don't know, I feel that same poll like I don't
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: want to just throw this in me. It's really hard, Like.
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: I know I've held like I know I've done exactly
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: what I we talked about sucking and altered about, like
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: I've held onto a car like uh, Daxter brought up
• 16:14
  Speaker 7: this is a potental topic and it was like, literally
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: the day before he mentioned it, I held on too.
• 16:21
  Speaker 7: I think it was my unique order spy and the
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: cigy deck I've been running reps on and it was
• 16:26
  Speaker 7: like I was like, looking at my starting hand, there
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: was clearly a better route that had been more effective
• 16:30
  Speaker 7: to start the game with, but I kept the order
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: to spy, which was going to do nothing for me,
• 16:35
  Speaker 7: given I was playing against Muna who was going to
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: anchor their dudes the first two rounds. Anyway, until like
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: turn four or five, so I was just holding it,
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: which I eventually did play it, and I did get
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: it sabotaged because my unique sabotage is when they go
• 16:49
  Speaker 7: to reserve so they don't get a chance to save it,
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: like a kind of like a legged which is why
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: I like it a lot. But in the end I
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: lost that game, like by one zone. We were like
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: one zone to one zone, and had I had like
• 17:05
  Speaker 7: the extra zone that I could have potentially got by
• 17:07
  Speaker 7: having a different setup on my turn two or three,
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: I could have won the game. And I lost because
• 17:14
  Speaker 7: I held onto the tiny car. I just really wanted
• 17:16
  Speaker 7: to keep it the call.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: It's tough to do right.
• 17:22
  Speaker 8: That's the whole point.
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: Like if you just have to do it sometimes, well.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: You want to make it work, right, You're going to
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: try to force it or you hold it and you're like,
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna make this work.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: You're only allotted three, right, And not only in this game,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: but in other games we're taught our rares or are
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: expensive or extremely dollar wise valuable cards have so much power,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: and in this game sometimes they do, but then sometimes
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: they don't. Like it's uniques in this game are extraordinarily weird,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: like there are and there's just the fact that there's
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: bad uniques is such a like, ah, I don't want
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: to say characteristics, but it's such an odd thing, right
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: because these are supposed to be like your money cards, right,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Like you go to Magic and like you know, you
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: have your rears and a lot of them are your
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: money cards. And then you go to like Yu gi oh,
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: and the big shiny ones are your money cards. All
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: over every card game, the big shiny ones, the search cards,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: the ones you're chasing after are always your money cards.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: And it just feels like absolute dog water putting it
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: away and knowing you're never gonna see it again for
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: the rest of the game, even though you have a
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: better line to take.
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: It's so true.
• 18:43
  Speaker 7: It's like at the end of that game, I was like,
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: I totally lost this game because of my six cards,
• 18:50
  Speaker 7: Like I made a bad choice there, And I know
• 18:52
  Speaker 7: why I made the bad choice, because I didn't want
• 18:55
  Speaker 7: to Mana at the start of the game.
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: One of the three unique cards of my deck.
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like I have the perfect example here
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: in my Muna deck, and I pisted it in the
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: sheet so you can see it's my unique son of
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: jiggersil Ye and it's by far like top four of
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: my Muna uniques. Well, it's such a hard card to
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: make a decision on.
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: And especially with Muna. We just talked about how cards carved.
• 19:26
  Speaker 7: You are in Muna yep. So like if you hold
• 19:28
  Speaker 7: onto the sixth cost son of egg Brazil in your
• 19:31
  Speaker 7: starting six, you are effectively playing the majority of your
• 19:35
  Speaker 7: game starting at two cards.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: And that's good. And Green doesn't have as many ways
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: to dump cards directly into reserve, right, so it's not
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: like you're you're able to sort of foist this guy
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: into your reserve where you can then pay him for
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: the for the four costs.
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: Six four from reserve.
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: And even then, like that's also a really bad thing
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: to do with Muna because what we talked about last week,
• 20:02
  Speaker 7: like like you don't have access to a lot of
• 20:05
  Speaker 7: cards unless you go the route where you draw in
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: your opponent draws, and that is also just bad. So
• 20:11
  Speaker 7: like it's just really really hard to do that kind
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: of thing, like the hold on them. So yeah, like
• 20:15
  Speaker 7: if I draw Don VIGs Erzil Mike starting six, unless
• 20:19
  Speaker 7: I also have tiny Gin, tiny Gin, like.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: He's got to go to Mana for me in my opinion.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, and when you're playing mona, as you talked
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: about last week, you have a lot of things you're
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: up against that can just tear you apart. So if
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: if I have this in my hand, and I have
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: two cloth cocoons, but I'm against like Awaru or somebody,
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: I have to keep the two cloth cortoons, like, it's
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: just yeah, so like this this unique is just gonna
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: go straight to Mana and never be seen again.
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: Mm hmm.
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: Quite often it's just a really bad starting six. And
• 20:55
  Speaker 7: that's I mean, that's something we could probably have a
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: discussion about all of itself one day, is like is
• 21:02
  Speaker 7: it worth going high manna for these uniques knowing that
• 21:06
  Speaker 7: if you draw them and you're starting six, they're probably
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: having to be manned.
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: That's that could be an interesting discussion.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: But not today, Choices deck construction Today, what are we
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: talking about? Zee?
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: All Right?
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: So I actually wanted to talk about like control, whether
• 21:25
  Speaker 7: that means sabotage or destruction, and I started to like
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: make a concept around that to talk about the day.
• 21:29
  Speaker 7: And then in that process I was like, well, I
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: can't really do this until I talk about card draw
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: because a lot of the decisions I'm making and how
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: I'm building decks in regards to the number of controlled
• 21:40
  Speaker 7: cards I'm putting in my decks has to do with
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: how many cards I'm drawing in general. So that is
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: what we're going to break down as far as like
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: things to be aware of when you're constructing decks. So
• 21:52
  Speaker 7: we're just gonna talk about I'm gonna keep the math
• 21:55
  Speaker 7: behind this, like relatively and simple terms as far as
• 21:58
  Speaker 7: like there's going to be a whole lot of like
• 22:00
  Speaker 7: you know, nitty gritty of the stats here, but it's
• 22:04
  Speaker 7: just gonna give a general idea of what we're talking
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: about with like a low versus a high draw deck.
• 22:11
  Speaker 7: And draw is a weird term in Altered altogether because
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: in most games, like efficiency is referred to just I'm
• 22:20
  Speaker 7: drawing a card that's a new card available to me.
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: Things that help efficiency and Altered are also stuff that
• 22:26
  Speaker 7: like remove fleeting or technically anchored kind of helps with
• 22:31
  Speaker 7: like the amount of like stuff on the board over time.
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of.
• 22:34
  Speaker 7: Things that just kind of help your cycle that don'tren't
• 22:37
  Speaker 7: necessarily drawing a new card. But today I'm gonna basically
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: focus more on the actual drawpart. So like most games
• 22:50
  Speaker 7: end at around the nine man outer range, so you're
• 22:57
  Speaker 7: roughly looking at seven rounds. You're starting with three, you
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: get six more, that's your seventh round, seven or eight rounds.
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: So I'm generally going to talk about like a seven
• 23:08
  Speaker 7: round game being the close of the average game after
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: you play a bunch of games is generally where it goes. Yes,
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: there are decks that nextend this call before you say
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: something about that one.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Deck or anytime dextra plays, and if.
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: You're playing Turmo, you're either going to beat them or
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: lose to them really fast. They don't really have another
• 23:31
  Speaker 7: mode or way to play. But most in general games
• 23:36
  Speaker 7: are going to go about seven rounds that nine or
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: ten man round, which means that you're going to see
• 23:45
  Speaker 7: a certain amount of cards in all all of those games.
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: So you're going to start off with the six cards
• 23:52
  Speaker 7: you get from the very beginning.
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: Do you see those immediately, and then you're going to
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: see twelve.
• 23:57
  Speaker 7: More cards over like those seven more rounds. So that's
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: eighteen cards without doing anything right, because you're gonna draw
• 24:08
  Speaker 7: two cards every round.
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: Except for one hero that's a little weird.
• 24:12
  Speaker 7: So you have those, Yes, you're gonna man out one
• 24:15
  Speaker 7: of them, but you still see them out of the
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: whole deck. So you're gonna see that amount of cards.
• 24:20
  Speaker 7: And then there are certain cards that you're gonna put
• 24:22
  Speaker 7: in the deck that will help that cycle. So you're
• 24:27
  Speaker 7: gonna want to We've talked about two different deck constructions,
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: and there are certain cars that just when you put
• 24:32
  Speaker 7: in there, they're either drawing themselves or they're resupplying, So
• 24:37
  Speaker 7: you're getting to see more cards with those decks. Now,
• 24:40
  Speaker 7: most decks are going to try to want to run
• 24:41
  Speaker 7: as many of those as possible so that you just
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: have access to more cards, because more cards means more options,
• 24:48
  Speaker 7: whether that's just playing a one minute drop to see
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: what they do, to respond or to answer their their cards,
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: or just to get to that car that is your
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: winn anyway, so this allows you to see a little
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: bit more cards because you're adding cards that draw in
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: so most cards, most decks generally have three to six
• 25:10
  Speaker 7: of those that they're going to add, so which means
• 25:14
  Speaker 7: because they do help you draw a relatively like normal
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: mundane load draw deck, you're seeing roughly twenty to twenty
• 25:23
  Speaker 7: two cards of your whole deck by the end of
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: the game. So I'm calling those the load draw decks
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: because I'm just breaking you can break this into a
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: binary situation because then you have hydraw decks, which just
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: basically is mere Ortis, Fen and Turbo Like those are
• 25:44
  Speaker 7: our high drawl range of stuff, and they generally see
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: anywhere from twenty four to twenty eight potentially thirty cards
• 25:53
  Speaker 7: in that timeframe, and they're because they're just having access
• 25:56
  Speaker 7: to more cards the way they work. So there are
• 26:02
  Speaker 7: just certain cards that will allow you to see more cards.
• 26:06
  Speaker 7: And right now, out of the meta that we play
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: in from all of the games we track, other than Cold,
• 26:14
  Speaker 7: who only seems to run into a certain color, I
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: have the significant decks that are in the low draw range,
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: like they're just going to see less cards.
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: This doesn't mean they're like they suck. They're still actually
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: very competitive.
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: But our low draw decks that you see out there
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: are Tasia, Kojo and SIGGI. You're looking at decks that
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: see twenty eight or less cards by the end of
• 26:36
  Speaker 7: their games. Our hydraw decks are warow Fen, Tressed, and
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: any ismir deck, and they typically are going to see
• 26:46
  Speaker 7: thirty plus cards by the end of their games based
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: on just the way they play and the cards that
• 26:52
  Speaker 7: they have available to So before I get into like
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: some of the big cards, look forward to make sure
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: that you're continuing to draw cards, because a lot of
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: the stuff we talk about in the future, as far
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: as constructing the deck, it's going to assume that you
• 27:05
  Speaker 7: have a certain amount at all laibled to you.
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: What are you all thoughts.
• 27:08
  Speaker 7: On on how much of the cards you're seeing in
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: those games that you all played?
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: Nothing?
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: I think we all waited for someone else to talk. Yeah, yeah,
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: I'll go ahead real quickly. Your your high your your
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: low draw number was a little surprising to me because like,
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: there are a lot of games to where I still have.
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: Wait, wait, hold on, I'm sorry. You mean to tell
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: me that the blue player hurt the low draw number
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: and was surprised?
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: I was, I was. It was shocking. No, Like, seriously,
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: the the number of cards that on a on a
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: bad draw that I have with WARU like, I'll still
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: have twenty ish maybe fifteen, Yeah, fifteen is low. I
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: would still say twenty ish cards left of my deck,
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: and granted that's still night team that I'm drawing. But
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: like you said, the numbers. Wasn't twenty for a low
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: draw deck? Yeah, like that just it That is shocking
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: to me, Like I don't granted I haven't played as
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: any games as you, but like it doesn't. That feels
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: like a high number. But like I know the I
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: know that it's there, right because you're drawing two per turn,
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: so that's roight.
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, roughly twenty is in game like the end of
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: the game.
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I can to keep track of that playing Tasia
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: so much. How much is really left?
• 28:31
  Speaker 7: And the Taja, like Tasa, is the most of the low
• 28:34
  Speaker 7: I'm about to talk about that because like Taja is
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: the one that has to consider anchor to be their
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: form of efficiency because they have to do that. Kojo
• 28:45
  Speaker 7: made the way I made it maximizes the amount of
• 28:47
  Speaker 7: draw can puts it possibly get. But Tasha doesn't even.
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: Have those choices.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: It's Bravos, right, so even like wait, if you maximize,
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: if you take just every card in Bravos, then will
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: let you draw card even if you take the facsimily
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: like I'm not actually drawing, I'm just ramping and then
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: I'm choosing not to use it as a ramp but
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: to hold my two on the next turn, you're still
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: like the fake draws that you get from ramping aren't
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: really going to like, that's not fair. It is a
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: card that you're going to get to keep in hand
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: that you wouldn't have otherwise, But you're not accelerating the
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: speed that you see different options.
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, right, more cards.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you were going to see it anyways. It just
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: makes it available to you. Whereas you know, we see
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: some of these, like some of the crazy blue uniques
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: that let you just power through your deck. And then
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: these guys have have hands. Like in this game, when
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: I see a player that has five or six cards,
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: I thank god, they're doing good. But then you see
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: people and they've got like a fan of nine cards,
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: and you wonder, okay, hold on, something broke over there
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: for sure, I think even on Trace, and it's one
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: of the things that kind of tells me if I'm
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: having a good Trace game or a bad Trace game.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: If so, they'll target. If you're playing Turbo, the other
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: player is going to try to burn your havens, that's
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: a given. But next when your adas and your salvager
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: is the resupply, right, yep, when those cards are in
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: the reserve, they're gonna kill them. It doesn't matter if
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: it gives you a counter. They're going to kill them
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: and getting them hit, particularly by cards like Leggett that
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: don't give you the counter for them. We've talked about
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: this a million times, but slowing the the that card draw,
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: because that's that's all you have. Is turbo is the
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: speed at which you move through your deck and you
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: filter through to get your little one cost cards in
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: your head. Because like in my turbo when it's running,
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to get through my decks super fast so
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: that I can see my three copies of Haven and
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: so that I can get two of them stuck on
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: the board and then have like if I'm having a
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: great game, I get that one turn where I sort
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: of overload my permanence, I play the third Haven down
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: and I get to just cook for one turn, right.
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a fun turn. That's a real
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: fun turn.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: When I don't get that draw, I am completely dead
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: in the water because like I need to see those
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: additional options because I am trying to filter to my
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: power cards, and not every deck's built that way. Like
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: you can just put a bunch of value cards in
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: a deck and have it, have it work really well.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: But on a turbo is sort of a weird deck
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: in that I think it's a combo deck. It's just
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: that the combo is all baked into having one card.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: You really need your Havens, this is true.
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: You really need the card.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to have it, and you really also
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: want to have your ability online and then then you're
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: playing the game. Right. So I've never thought to count,
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: like how many cards are left in my deck at
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: the end of a game. But I can tell you
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: that at the end of a good game, there's not.
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: Look over at the number of NBGA, It'll just right
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: right there. Yeah, to do it.
• 32:12
  Speaker 7: But I mean basically this comes down like when we
• 32:14
  Speaker 7: have the three low cart draw decks from the competitive cycle.
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: And that's actually another reason why so many heroes are
• 32:19
  Speaker 7: not competitive. Like almost all of the heroes I never
• 32:22
  Speaker 7: talk about are not just in low tier. They're in
• 32:25
  Speaker 7: low tier with less options to do things with because
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: their card values, not like their hero's actual ability doesn't
• 32:32
  Speaker 7: hang with the other heroes. So like those low tier
• 32:35
  Speaker 7: decks Taja, Kojo and Cigi that are good, those are
• 32:38
  Speaker 7: all good decks, only see about fifty percent of their
• 32:41
  Speaker 7: cards a game. The high tier, like the hydraw decks,
• 32:45
  Speaker 7: which is the Warrow, Purple, all Purple, Fen and traced,
• 32:50
  Speaker 7: like they're seeing seventy percent of their their their deck,
• 32:54
  Speaker 7: which means like.
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: A lot of us don't have three three fire.
• 32:58
  Speaker 7: Uniques, Like I don't have three fire unichs any deck
• 33:00
  Speaker 7: I run. But like, if I have three fire uniques,
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: if I've been that blessed to open them or spent
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: that amount of money, right, if I have a seventy
• 33:11
  Speaker 7: percent chance to see, Like, if I'm seeing seventy percent
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: of my deck per game, that just means the uniques
• 33:16
  Speaker 7: in those decks have quite a bit more value than
• 33:20
  Speaker 7: uniques in the low decks, because like, if I'm only
• 33:22
  Speaker 7: seeing fifty percent of my cards per game, I'm seeing
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: those uniques way less often, no matter how impactful they are.
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: Right Well, with thin it's a bit weird because I mean,
• 33:32
  Speaker 6: you're not seeing half of the cards you're drawing, because.
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: I part doesn't matter as far as the math of scene.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: I don't, I don't, I don't think I think you're
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: missing the crucial point.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: Card draw is important any game you play, and it's
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: mainly due to the more cards you see, the more
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: answers you're able to find. Yeah, right, you have answers
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: into your deck. Any meta relevant deck has answers to
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: the other meta relevant decks. However, if you are seeing
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: less cards, you have less opportunity to find the answers,
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: and you're praying more to the RNG gods to help
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: you than you are in a deck that's able to
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: see a lot of cards. Artists Wahu especially sees buckets
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: of cards that car and I think, Zee, maybe you
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: can break down the math. I doubt you did this math,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: but I would bet you that Wau probably sees the
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: most cards in the game. Like, of all the heroes,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: he is able to see more cards than any other hero.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: I would I would.
• 34:46
  Speaker 7: Probably has more cards and resupply and draw simultaneous.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: Saying hero because what he's specifically saying hero.
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: I wanted to put I wanted to put Turbo in contention.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: But the thing about Turbo is that, like it's not
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: quite as consistent because you are like war you can't
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: really shut down his card draw.
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: Finn would see more before Turbo would.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, is number a well a well built Warrio probably
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: in this meta right now, Like if you're talking about
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: just the competitive end.
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: If any of you U have draw on them, Warrow
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: is definitely ahead of ISMIR. But if you just talk
• 35:32
  Speaker 7: about the standard of the only thing you're drawing is
• 35:35
  Speaker 7: the three Attorneys, the three Ozma's, THENIR has you beat
• 35:40
  Speaker 7: in almost all of their builds.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I'd be interested to find what each hero has. As
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: far as car dra goes, I would bet you the
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: top tier heroes, the you know, quote unquote meta heroes
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: are drawing more than the non meta heroes.
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: I think that's almost universally true.
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, that's that's in our thing right here,
• 36:01
  Speaker 7: like that's yeah, yes, that is true, with the exception
• 36:06
  Speaker 7: of Tasia.
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: I think one of the things that that I've seen
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: as an argument, like or at least proposal as to
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: why card draison is important, because I think people have
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: all come around at this point, Like in the very
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: very very early days of sort of discussing altered structure,
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: there was some talk about like, well, card draws are
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: not that important because you get to play each of
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: your cards twice. My argument for that has always been,
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter if I can play a card twice
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: if that card is not the thing I need in
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: this moment, right, ye. Yes, being able to play a
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: card twice if I have the answer is great because
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: it means that I have that answer twice. So I'm
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: not only taking care of the situation in the moment,
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: but I'm putting myself aside something to deal with it
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: in the future.
• 36:47
  Speaker 7: And most of the answer cards quote unquote, they fleeting.
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there are very few true answer cards that.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know some there are cases where they're not.
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: Either way, you still got to see it, right, And
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: it's not just that you need to see it, it's
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: that you need to see it when you need it.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: And so we're compounding, like the RNG equation to have
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: the card you need when they get the card that
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: you need to play it against. That's just card games,
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: but in this game, like if you aren't putting the
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: things into your deck to draw through it and try
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: to try to solve that equation in favor of your
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: side of it, it gets a little ugly.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: It's pretty rough.
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: Before I move on with the segment, I do want
• 37:42
  Speaker 7: to give some deck constructed advice. So, like the years
• 37:46
  Speaker 7: are identified three standouts for efficiency and draw for all
• 37:51
  Speaker 7: of the houses, or factions, So Axiom I have rare Ada,
• 37:57
  Speaker 7: Lovelace and rare Hooked. Those are super value as far
• 38:00
  Speaker 7: as getting new cards in your hand and simply play.
• 38:03
  Speaker 7: Traced is my third card the Pravos. I've got rare
• 38:07
  Speaker 7: physical training, Rare Haven, Bashion. We had a whole deck
• 38:10
  Speaker 7: construction episode on Bravos about why I am hard on
• 38:13
  Speaker 7: those being great and the third one as well, Axiom
• 38:17
  Speaker 7: Salvager pairs perfectly with the Bastian. You get to see
• 38:20
  Speaker 7: a brand new card from the resupply on the bottom.
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: For Lira, the out of faction Alavera is one of
• 38:27
  Speaker 7: I think the best drivers for the Lira in general,
• 38:30
  Speaker 7: specifically Fenn the common Hathor that's another one of those.
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: It's like quotation drawl.
• 38:38
  Speaker 7: While it's not actually giving you a new card, it
• 38:41
  Speaker 7: does allow you to use a spell again, most commonly
• 38:45
  Speaker 7: like a cappella or twinkle or whatever. So that and
• 38:48
  Speaker 7: it could potentially land your as Morelda with resupply again,
• 38:53
  Speaker 7: which is a fresh card.
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: And then just play.
• 38:56
  Speaker 7: Fenn sees a ton of cards like there's there's no
• 39:00
  Speaker 7: higher draw hero from scratch than Fenn. It just gets
• 39:04
  Speaker 7: to draw a half basically a half a card every
• 39:07
  Speaker 7: turn is starting to turn two. That's a lot of cards.
• 39:10
  Speaker 7: Fin's real good.
• 39:12
  Speaker 5: Then we have I'm gonna say, I'm gonna skip men
• 39:14
  Speaker 5: it will come back.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: There.
• 39:15
  Speaker 7: Ortis you've got the common Osma fantastic card draws to
• 39:20
  Speaker 7: basically from well one from play one from reserve, the
• 39:24
  Speaker 7: rare Attorney only if you're playing Waru ultimately can draw
• 39:29
  Speaker 7: up to four cards generally draws you two per game
• 39:33
  Speaker 7: per attorney, which is huge. And then orders no matter
• 39:37
  Speaker 7: which version of Orders you play, and the out of
• 39:39
  Speaker 7: faction Bobby Yaga is pretty good. Lots of order sex
• 39:43
  Speaker 7: run it. Not all Warros run it, but almost every
• 39:46
  Speaker 7: Cigi runs it because they need the card draw real
• 39:49
  Speaker 7: bad because they don't.
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: Have the other draws that Orders has. Well, they have Ozma,
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: but they don't have the attorney. Doesn't work for them.
• 39:56
  Speaker 7: Ismir I love the rare Categorn Mage. It's really easy
• 39:59
  Speaker 7: to pump that up, especially with the funnest to get
• 40:01
  Speaker 7: the draw there. Common or rare Bob Yaga both great
• 40:05
  Speaker 7: for draw and then of course they have the common
• 40:08
  Speaker 7: Magical Training, which is the most basic draw spell.
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: In the game.
• 40:12
  Speaker 7: Pay Amna draw a card. It's basically a one man
• 40:15
  Speaker 7: after you that gives you a card. And going back
• 40:19
  Speaker 7: to Muna, I love Rare ala Vera to resupply. You
• 40:23
  Speaker 7: can potentially get a couple of times if you have
• 40:25
  Speaker 7: anchors in your deck that are more than just that card,
• 40:29
  Speaker 7: and then anchors in general. That is literally where the
• 40:32
  Speaker 7: draw ends with Muna. I do not like Daughter anymore.
• 40:35
  Speaker 7: I do not like it Soon. I felt every time
• 40:37
  Speaker 7: I played I was giving too big advantage to the
• 40:40
  Speaker 7: decks in the games that are the best decks in
• 40:41
  Speaker 7: the game.
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: So it's just so I was just manaing Kadsoon and
• 40:45
  Speaker 5: Daughter all the time, which meant they just shouldn't be
• 40:48
  Speaker 5: in my deck.
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: The problem that you have with daughters who were running
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: common right, No.
• 40:54
  Speaker 5: I was running the rare.
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: Mmmm. I feel like the rare is a card that
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: can be good in a Tasia deck and in certain decks.
• 41:03
  Speaker 5: But my problem with the Daughter is that the stats
• 41:06
  Speaker 5: are great.
• 41:06
  Speaker 7: I love the stats on you, yeah, But the decks
• 41:10
  Speaker 7: that I was struggling to beat with the most with Tajia,
• 41:14
  Speaker 7: I was always having to manner them because I could
• 41:16
  Speaker 7: not afford to give them a card. And if that's
• 41:18
  Speaker 7: the scenario, man it doesn't help me win the games
• 41:20
  Speaker 7: I need to win.
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: Do you do you have three rare anari?
• 41:26
  Speaker 5: I do not have them in the deck. I have them,
• 41:28
  Speaker 5: I don't use the Maybe we need.
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: To test some minari with anchor, because that's that's straw
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: at noon, rare and not terrible steps.
• 41:39
  Speaker 5: That could be a thing.
• 41:40
  Speaker 7: I think that's one of those ones I looked at though.
• 41:42
  Speaker 7: If I had the uniques that did that anchor thing,
• 41:46
  Speaker 7: my deck would change a lot because then I would
• 41:48
  Speaker 7: have a lot more access to anchor.
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but the not not good choices.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 41:54
  Speaker 7: And then my third note from Muna is that that's it.
• 41:57
  Speaker 7: Only have the alo Vera card anchors help keep your
• 42:01
  Speaker 7: guys out and then sad day, that's it.
• 42:04
  Speaker 5: I don't have any other cards to talk about that
• 42:05
  Speaker 5: I love.
• 42:07
  Speaker 7: And just a note from last week, make sure you
• 42:10
  Speaker 7: have spindles to keep your anchor dues alive, because none
• 42:14
  Speaker 7: of this stuff works in my opinion without spindle. Right now,
• 42:17
  Speaker 7: I think Muna, of all the factions, needs by far
• 42:21
  Speaker 7: the most card support from set two, and I know
• 42:24
  Speaker 7: we've talked about that.
• 42:26
  Speaker 5: Since they just need help.
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: Yedi's gonna be a character that draws three cards and
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: it goes out.
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: I think Yeddi is going to disappoint you by how
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: it is.
• 42:39
  Speaker 7: Like with where Muda is right now, Yedi would have
• 42:41
  Speaker 7: to say, I like, it's like a six sixty six
• 42:44
  Speaker 7: that advances an expedition.
• 42:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I am.
• 42:47
  Speaker 4: I am concerned because the two cards that we have
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: seen out of Muna are seemingly very big things. And
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: I'm totally fine only having rare Hydress might big.
• 42:59
  Speaker 5: We do have some.
• 43:01
  Speaker 7: Spoilers now ish, Yeah, that's what I was talking about,
• 43:07
  Speaker 7: three of them.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: It might be time to talk spoilers here on one
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: of our segments.
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: Well, we need to wait to actually get enough to
• 43:14
  Speaker 5: talk about right now. There is not anything good enough
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: to talk about mine. Yeah.
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: I think we briefly touched on the cards that were
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: made visible to us, and the only thing they've done
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: so far there's right now. Loki has kind of been
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: teasing that we'll get to see some more information on
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: either Amarok, which is a red Wolf card that I'm
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: very excited to see, or this green yety thing that
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: I guess some people might care about. But we don't
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: really know anything besides the fact that ones are at
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: one's green and their names.
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: Yep, nothing too exciting in the way of details. I
• 43:54
  Speaker 4: can start collecting that though, so we can save it
• 43:57
  Speaker 4: up and then have a whole all conversation about it.
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: And yeah, that's going to be a super exciting time
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: on the cast whenever we get into the call it
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: like spoiler season from other games, and we can start
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: sort of hypothesizing how they're going to impact the metas
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: that we're in today.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: For like whatever that was that they wanted in the
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: Altered Server.
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: I I have not heard back yet, but I will
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: stay in touch. And Wookie, your mic is going robotic?
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: Oh interesting robotic?
• 44:35
  Speaker 5: It is a little bit.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's weird. I don't know why I've been having
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: trouble now for two days.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: I'll make sure I'm plugged in. It won't be growing
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: robotic on my end because mine's directly in there.
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: So oh, he's the enough to ignore for us then yeah, I.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: Mean it should be just fine on my end. God,
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: I hope for a recording, but.
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: So we should say listeners, if you are listening and
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: here your favorite Altered podcast, and that happens to be
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: us talk about spoilers.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: We're not their favorite podcast. We could be somebody with
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: Somebody with Tits is their favorite altered podcast. Let's be honest.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: Well, we have the most tits out there.
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: So there's a bunch of is there.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: Wow?
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: Wow, I don't want to be associated with any of this.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: You don't want to be associated with.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: I do a lot of.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Whatever is for use for you?
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: I mean one, two, I mean there's twelve.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I hate to tell you there's a it's
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: a certain variety. Not all tits are the same.
• 45:47
  Speaker 4: Hey, man, bods are in and we have a lot
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: of them. I assume your dad.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: All right, we don't have a bunch of dad pods.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: So if you are a female altered player, make sure
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: make sure you stay tuned for the Altered Corner or
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: other whatever floats your boat. Make sure you stay tuned
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: for the ever I mean the beginning of the year's coming.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Maybe we make an Altered Corner calendar.
• 46:15
  Speaker 5: We got half the month.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: There's six of us, we each get two months. Oh no,
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: all right, are we ready to go into lines exact? Please?
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: Once again for the fifth week in a row. Why
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: don't you tell me why ortis is so good?
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Uh? Not ortists specifically, what the title of my segment
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: is flattening the curve, which is actually very unfortunate because
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: we were just talking about titties and all that.
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: But you know whatever, Hey, flat ones are fine, They're fine. Lopsided,
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: That's right, every bird, our last listener, every beautiful. Okay,
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: So seriously, though, I am going to talk about flattening
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: the curve. As we have played in this game, all
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: of us and whomever is listening. Uh, if you've played
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: any amount of games, your deck has gone through many, many,
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: many different iterations. And the same can be said for
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: the ward deck that I play. It started off with
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: certain cards that you know, uh THEE and I thought
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: were good at the time, that seemed to work out whatever,
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: et cetera. We had the isatos in there, six cost,
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: We had consoles at for cost, you know, just a
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: bunch of bunch of like higher cost cards. And as
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: we played, and as you find out you those are,
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: they can be easy to remove. We've already talked about
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: the four plus cost removals. Right. You spent a turn
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: spending six man o for a card and it gets
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: earn with one card. You're kind of sitting there like, oh,
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: what do I do now? So what are the things
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: that we've talked about and has come up in a
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: lot of other games, is wanting to flatten your man
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: A curve as much as possible. Right now, I'm looking
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: at our warter deck and as you can go to
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: thirty nine cards dot Com and see what the winning
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: decks have put out there, you can see almost across
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: the board. And I'm only speaking more. We'll also because
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: some of the other ones in this moment, but across
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: the board you can see the man A curve getting
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: lower and lower and lower. Clearly, what that's doing is
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: giving more options for in the higher mano turns right.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: So the fact that you know you have in our
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: case a toth right three cost, you have a'ma at
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: two costs, you had the legates at two costs, you
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: have the attorneys at two costs, quit set three, fraud
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: prints at one, orders trooper at one. It gives you
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: a lot of opportunities to the let that tug of
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: war during that round develop and see how your opponent
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: is responding. And like Zee has said before and I
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: think others on this cast, is to see one how
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: your opponent reacts and then to actually play your true
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: turn that you want to play. It's harder to do
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: that in the lower maniturns, but in the higher maniturns
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: when I once you start hitting six, seven, eight, you
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: can see a little bit more card play and see
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: what develops. So one of the things, like I said,
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: that we've done is we've lowereder a mano cost. I'm
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: currently looking at our deck. Hand cost you know, ranges
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: from one to four, reserve cost one to five, and
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: there's only the reason why there's a reserve cost of
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: five in there is because it is our unique Robinhood
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: that is currently being played. That is probably one of
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: the high rants. But even at the fore cost hand
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: cost four, we only have three cards. At reserve cost
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: of two or more, we have three cards, so the
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: majority of the cards are sitting in that two to
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: three range. And again it gives you more options for
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: some of the other factions that other people may play.
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know why.
• 50:16
  Speaker 4: Shut hard like having to think and not have our decks.
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: Oh the phone. Now there is a lot of decision
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: points that I have to make. And when I play
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: war Room.
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: When you're gonna play, when you're going to pay an
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: extra one, you know, he has to decide what tourney's
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: going to win the game.
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: You know he's got This is all true, This is
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: all true.
• 50:43
  Speaker 5: He has to that token every turn.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: Car Tunnel thanks to you, you.
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: Know, sleep or not to sleep, to play Robin Hood,
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: to not play Robin Yes, you always play Robin Hood.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: But but sincerely though, like you're looking at Ravos right,
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: You're your manic curve isn't really that important. You're going
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: to be playing higher cost cards. You're going to be
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: playing those huge value cards. The same thing for Muna.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: We've talked about, like there's some higher cost cards that
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: you were going to want to play potentially depending on
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: what because on those we literally just talked about, like
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: you can't actually afford to have a flat curve because
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: you'll run out of cards.
• 51:25
  Speaker 7: Like you you will lose the game by burning through
• 51:28
  Speaker 7: your deck if your whole deck is cheap. So you
• 51:31
  Speaker 7: do need mid range like more threes and fours in
• 51:34
  Speaker 7: your deck because you will run out of cards if.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: You do not do that. And as we were talking
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: about the draw earlier, and it was like such a
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: nice like aligned segment with what I was going to
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: talk about today, ismir with the ifanis right you're running
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: a lot of low cost spells, so you can just
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: fire fire, fire, fire, fire and sticky is kind of
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: you know, you're looking at low cost cards, but there are.
• 51:58
  Speaker 5: Some, you know, the all over the place with what
• 52:02
  Speaker 5: people come with.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you know, if if anybody wants to
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: run that, what is it? The the Yazmeerbastian eight or
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: nine costs one. Yeah, it's ridiculous, Like, I don't know
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: what kind of what kind of mental person would run.
• 52:19
  Speaker 5: Many people run it. It's just the people that play
• 52:21
  Speaker 5: cold again.
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: It's in his settings of hard mode, easy mode, and
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: you know whether how much he wants to suffer during
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: the day.
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: Just you wait, it's coming for you.
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: I just you wait. I only I was gonna say
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: I only played during a so you know it's uh,
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: I only see those good index right there, we have attract.
• 52:39
  Speaker 7: Four hundred and forty two games, twenty eight of the
• 52:42
  Speaker 7: Maria Kesha and five of them that are tractor against you.
• 52:49
  Speaker 4: Listen, we don't we don't need to talk about my
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: recent all from anything good.
• 52:55
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you're streakent so bad you stopped tracking data. We didn't,
• 53:00
  Speaker 7: we would have a whole lot of weird wins on here.
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: I guess I will.
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: I will just say that I have two decks on there,
• 53:08
  Speaker 4: and one of them I played against Akesha zero times,
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: the other a lot more than I should have, and
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: a funness a lot more than I should have, and
• 53:17
  Speaker 4: all of those were during the very bad time.
• 53:21
  Speaker 7: You do have ten of our fifty six games versus
• 53:24
  Speaker 7: the funness, So I all agree with you there you
• 53:26
  Speaker 7: were running into a funness a lot more than the
• 53:28
  Speaker 7: ratio would suggest you should have.
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: I believe that Trace would be another one that would
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: also like to have that nice you know, yeah, flattening menicurve,
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: but to cost one, right, and a lot of it's
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: going to be from reserve too, right. So again you've
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: seen this in a lot of other games. You're gonna
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: want to wanna you know, you're looking at not even value,
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: but you're looking at to keep a nice flat manic curves.
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: So that way you have options when you're playing, especially
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: if you're drawing a lot of cards. If you're not
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: drawing a lot of cards, right, it gives you options.
• 54:01
  Speaker 7: So I have won games on Trace where I've stopped
• 54:03
  Speaker 7: manning at six and just like I'm going to just
• 54:06
  Speaker 7: draw two.
• 54:07
  Speaker 5: Cards the rest of the game and play my entire
• 54:10
  Speaker 5: end the rest of the game, and it worked.
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: I mean there's also I'm gonna dial for you excuse me,
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: Oh no, I'll do it. There there's also like there's
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: huge advantages right now to who fleshing out the turn.
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: I guess we're calling it the tug of war, right,
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: Like you want to see where your opponent's at and
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: like counting up man of orbs. It's a big deal, right,
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: and then knowing what lines they're able to take with
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: what's available to them to know what your next move
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: should be. Does that make sense? Did I say that?
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 54:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you need to be able to predict what
• 54:56
  Speaker 5: information is.
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: So like, I feel like the hierarchy of needs and
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: altered is like card draw the information, right, the active
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: player is whoever is you know, first player has such
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: is at quite a bit of a disadvantage. I feel
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: a lot of the time, unless unless you're a.
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: But like in which case you're not really the first player.
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: So right, and I feel like just being able to
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: sort out I mean, I've lost a ton of games
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: because I don't have the card knowledge that Z does
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: or or any of you guys, right, And obviously that
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: that comes with losing games.
• 55:38
  Speaker 5: I've lost a game, right, and you know you gotta lose.
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: You gotta lose the games to be like oh okay,
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: and then you kind of constantly see the same thing
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: and eventually eventually you learn or you flip a table
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: like those are your really your two options?
• 55:53
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: If you never learn, you're just like why did Why
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: did I not see that coming? And like, but like
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: that information is so big, so I kind of I
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: don't want to say four SAT, but I was like, oh,
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: there's gonna be a flattening of this, right, You're gonna
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: kind of like three four because magic's very similar to right,
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: like magic, like you want to stay in that three
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: four range, right, and then maybe you have like some
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: larger closers right in the end. Maybe not all the time,
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: like most times though, Yeah, And it's like particularly it
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: it's so different if we're talking about sealed, if we're
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: talking about constructed, and this case is about constructed, and.
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like you play a big card, you give up
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: so much flexibility to do that, even if the big
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: card is super splashy, you play that crack in and constructed.
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: Oh man, cracking does so many cool things.
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because there's not as there's not as many answers
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: in a in a limited environment as there is game
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: and seal right, every time limited is a whole nother
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: animal in any card game you play, right, because like
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: you don't have access to all the perfect answers. We're
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: in a constructive environment.
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: You do sometimes you might not have an answer like
• 57:10
  Speaker 5: you just very much.
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well you could. You could extend that argument
• 57:16
  Speaker 3: a little bit to include the card draw thing we
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: talked about before, right, where if if carras your answers.
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: Right, you're able to flame them.
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 57:27
  Speaker 3: Well, but there's all the time I play games where
• 57:29
  Speaker 3: like my answer, I don't see it right, My my
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: shuffle's bad, I don't hit my my draw cards to
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: power through the deck, and I need a card that
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: I just can't get to. But most of the time,
• 57:43
  Speaker 3: if the difference between like people that are trying to
• 57:45
  Speaker 3: make decks like ATSADI work with huge cost cards that
• 57:49
  Speaker 3: they're gonna ramp and then they're gonna play like one
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: big card to turn, it's just tough.
• 57:57
  Speaker 7: Well because the bad like the reason why it's so
• 57:59
  Speaker 7: bad typically in this game is like Let's say I
• 58:02
  Speaker 7: do play some gigantic creature with all my man and
• 58:07
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna win both lanes no matter what they do.
• 58:09
  Speaker 5: I obviously had to play that pretty early in that round,
• 58:13
  Speaker 5: like first or second time.
• 58:15
  Speaker 7: I went to act quite often the first time, which
• 58:19
  Speaker 7: means even if my opponent can't win the lane either lane,
• 58:24
  Speaker 7: then they just hold all of their cards and then
• 58:26
  Speaker 7: they kick might ask the next turn what it's It's
• 58:30
  Speaker 7: a rough situation to play these big costing cards unless
• 58:34
  Speaker 7: they're literally to close out the game.
• 58:39
  Speaker 5: Because they just that just gives them cards.
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: All right, are we ready to move into the marketplace search?
• 58:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah? You got you got you gotta stay with me,
• 58:48
  Speaker 5: I got I got you today? Where we got for
• 58:50
  Speaker 5: reach out?
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: Well, hold on, hold on, let's let's let's play a game, right,
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: Let's have a little fun with this. So where do
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: you guys think a booster box of the Kickstarter booster
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: box is the Kickstarter?
• 59:06
  Speaker 5: Is that we've been holding one one for a long
• 59:10
  Speaker 5: time now last week?
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, kind of keeping my eye on this.
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: So one seventy five is my bit.
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: One seventy five. Okay, I'm gonna say.
• 59:20
  Speaker 3: At one fifty five, I'm gonna keep it.
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: Firty five okay.
• 59:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going with what we've been at one fifty.
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: It's one fifty okay. So my guess is that gamers
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: Guild is out because the top search comes up for
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: game Nerds and more at one sixty ninety seven.
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: On the way up.
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 59:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that is a that's going up.
• 59:44
  Speaker 7: And that's what I said last week is like that's
• 59:46
  Speaker 7: that price, like one fifty for a kickstarter, Like, given
• 59:51
  Speaker 7: the market rate of certain uniques and the certain rares
• 59:54
  Speaker 7: that are in Bravos and Bravos Ortis and Axiom, like,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 7: you are almost guaranteed them open more than one hundred
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 7: and fifty dollars in value by just cracking the thirty
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 7: seven packs if you wanted to do the word to
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 7: sell them.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 5: I think that still holds true for what what's the
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 5: new price?
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: What one's seventy? Basically?
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, like we literally just did to break me, wasn't me?
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 5: Good job? Go col go cold?
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 7: Yeah, So like we just did a faction break moments
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 7: before that. We started this cas today and Oger opened
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 7: a card that's probably worth alone in the one fifty
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 7: ndred dollars range, and then the rest of us got
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 7: a whole bunch of rares. Market value for every rare
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 7: is roughly two dollars right now, and then there's some
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 7: that are like ten to twenty because of meta like
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 7: it is really hard to open randomly any Kickstarter box
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 7: since they have more rares and more uniques that is
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 7: going to be under.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 5: Two hundred fifty dollars were a total value.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: All right, and for just a standard box where you
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: guys think we're we're at eighty four last week. I
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: believe it was like eighty four.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 5: I don't see any reason for it to change for
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 5: a while now.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: So whatever it was last week is my guess is
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: unless the ply starts running low. I mean, that's the
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: only reason why we go up right, I'm going to
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: go about ninety for retail, Yeah, eighty nine.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 4: Ninety nine.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 3: I cheated on this one. I go eighty three the
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 3: Gamers Skilled site to verify the last thing we were
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 3: looking at.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: So yeah, what is Gamers Guild? I don't even see
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: them here anymore.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: So the first thing I'm going to say is that
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 3: you are correct. They are out of stock on ks.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 7: So oh wow, yeah, So yeah, if Gamers Guilds out
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 7: of stock, I do think that next week we're going
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 7: to see another spike in the Kickstarter.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: Right now, the cheapest I could find for beyond the
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: gates Simo Games dot Com and more seventy nine ninety nine,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: so a little cheaper than one.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's all really really cheap. That is, that is
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 5: less than an online retailer can buy it for.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 4: I think I said eighty nine. I thought it would
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 4: go up a little man.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah, gg still got it for eighty five.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I will say I still see them in
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: eighty four and change, So yeah, pick them up. I
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: guess why you can, especially for the for the Kickstarter
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: edition the Kickstarter.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's still a great deal.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 7: Like, I'm not one to do a lot of work
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 7: to sell sequels in my current age, but if I
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 7: were like younger and I wanted the second Dairy Game
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 7: of like play the market because like that's a that's
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 7: kind of fun to some people, Like they only make
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 7: twenty four opening product twenty four, Yeah that might because
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 7: like last week, Gamers Guild had what we say it
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 7: was like in the eighties, and we were like they
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 7: should people.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 5: Should buy this because it's definitely worth more than that.
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: They had, like I say, the same thing they had
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: like eighty two of the Kickstarter version, I believe.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 7: Yeah, And if this one I was like twenty six
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 7: of the at one seventy, I think. I think if
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 7: you were literally just trying to make money off of
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 7: selling singles and altered, you could buy all of those
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 7: and make all of that money back plus probably twenty
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 7: percent easily.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: That sounds like my nightmare.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: I don't want to do that.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 5: I am not gonna do that.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 7: But if I'm sure there's someone out there and then hey,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 7: maybe you pop whatever you were looking for and then
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 7: still make all your money back.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 5: Who knows?
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: Actually eyeballing this Either.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 5: Way, you'll have lots of fun opening the packs.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: I'm eyeballing this. All the Heroes collection on on eBay
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: for seventeen dollars. I might just pull the trigger.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 3: What No, we could just send you with that.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 7: Just every week to do a faction break with us
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 7: and choose a different faction each week.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 3: With the week I promise you we have soupy, I
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 3: can give you all the Heroes.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 7: I do not care, no no what you just do
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 7: a fact you will get like six of them per
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 7: faction break or whatever. Just do a faction break every week,
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 7: can choose a different hero.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: Are they not a foil that came in the Kickstarter
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: and all.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we have so many.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah we will, we will every we just we just
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 5: opened the thirty seven foiled Heroes.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: Just now, Oh really, there's a foil here on each pack?
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, every pack. That's why, except for the gold packs.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 5: There was so much more valuable. There's a lot of
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 5: value Baked.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: I did not realize all the heroes. I thought they
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: came as like a separate side piece. I didn't realize
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: they were in the box.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: Now, don't p s a to all the people that
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 3: might be listening, do not let the Like I've seen it,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 3: some of them are pretty fair. Like I would say,
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: a full hero set for fifteen bucks in Foil if
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 3: you care about Shiny, probably that's worth it. But like,
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: do not fall for the other big crazy number sales
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 3: for them. Like somebody in your community has way more
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 3: foiled heroes than they know what to do with. And
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: if you ask them nicely, I almost can guarantee you
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 3: they will give you the hero that you care about
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 3: in Foil, if not all of them, I hand mine
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 3: out all the time.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we have a lot of them. If you want
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 5: to sell for fifteen dollars, you could also just DM me.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: Off'n say the same thing. If Dexter is on his
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: way up the KFC, I will send him a full spet.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: You just send us fifteen dollars, Wookie, We'll make it happen.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, just for you, for you, for you, Wookie,
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: I'll do twenty.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: Okay, Oh geez, what an asshole. I don't realize you
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: just added five dollars or just like the asshole automatical
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: and you're like five now, okay, cool, I'll.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 4: Give you two of each for fifteen. How about that?
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: Oh Jesus, we got you, rookie.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: They're trying to take me over the coals?
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 5: All right?
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: Where are we events? We had events with Cole? What
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: do we got?
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 4: So I think the way we do this is we
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 4: start with just listing out some events to have on
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 4: your radar, and then we'll save the best for last,
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 4: which is our own ace tournament. I will say, if
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 4: you have not gone over to altered Corner dot com yet,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 4: do that. I just put the tournament results page live
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 4: on the website. But we'll dive into that.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 5: In a moment.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 4: As for other events, as always joined the Altered Corner discord.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 4: For your locals in DFW, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 4: You keep trying of anything and everything we can in
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 4: the pins of each metro. There's not anything too new
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 4: propping up from what I've seen, so it's just your usuals.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 4: We've already mentioned. However, Agis does do a different type event.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 5: Each week, and I believe this week's is sealed right, Yes,
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 5: it is and a good thing. We thank them for
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 5: sponsoring our events. We love you, Julio. We're gonna go.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get it sorted out. If it's agus or
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: igus or whatever.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 5: Tomorrow was there last week.
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: We know we didn't talk about.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: You know, we talked about it's gonna be like, Oh,
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: it's pronounced Philip, Like what the fuck?
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 4: I think just based on where we are, it's probably
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 4: it's probably Aegis. But I apologize if we've been wrong.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 5: Leoh yeah, if.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: You're in Houston and you want different event each week,
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 4: or just go to a cool shop and play with
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 4: some of the people in the community, definitely check Asus
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 4: Creative Company out. Then yes, sorry, every every Saturday. It's
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 4: just so much easier to join the Discord. But now
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 4: also the website has all the events if you are
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 4: not a Discord user, so excellent. Other than local to
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 4: Texas and uh local events. We had a wall on Wednesday.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 4: Simon had a work event, so I actually was the
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 4: main admin in charge of a wall.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: I literally went a wall.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 4: Because Simon forgot to give me privileges to ping at
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 4: rolls and so I just started screaming in the Discord.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 5: A bunch.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 2: Were talking at all caps and I enjoyed it, like, man,
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: he must be just like something's going happen.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 4: That's that was just my energy. I I also think
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 4: that people shouldn't need pings for every round and they
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 4: should just pay attention. But you know, I had fun
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 4: with it. We saw kind of an upset in the
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 4: A Wall last week. So A Wall is an online tournament.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 4: It's on Wednesday nights. It is a Swiss so we
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 4: usually play about six rounds as of now. And the
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 4: upset wasn't that someone other than Waru One. The upset
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 4: was the player was different, and it was Chaos, who
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 4: was piloting a friend's deck who has chased down some
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 4: very disgusting uniques. So the real the real winner the
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 4: night was a couple really gross robin Hood uniques and
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 4: a Sandman Unique that also had a robin Hood effect
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 4: on it built. So yeah, there there was some triple
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 4: taxing going on there. WARU in first place and traced
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 4: in second place on it at a wall this week.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 4: And then for events that are not US in France,
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 4: there's going to be another big Ludo trotter tournament. I
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 4: just want to mention real quick what you get for
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 4: this tournament ticket, and I am extremely jealous. So for
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 4: thirty five funny money, you get three retail boosters in English,
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 4: two retail boosters in French, one promo booster, five Vought
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 4: vouchers whatever that is, entry into the event which is
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 4: TCG Kingdom, and one playmat and then you can play in.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 5: The wow one incredible dollars.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 8: Yeah, even without the play mat, that's a great deal.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: Do you have to touch somebody through a hole or
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: something or in less thirty five dollars?
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 3: Well, thirty five thirty five euro right.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 8: It's US. It's like forty dollars.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: Even then forty bucks.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's also prizing for top one twenty eight.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 5: So yeah, wait, wait, great, I want Wokie to hear
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 5: what you just said real clear.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, how many people get how many people get prizing
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: for top one twenty eight? I'm aware? Yes, yes, I know?
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: And what what kind of card event would even have
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty eight players?
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 7: My goodness, there's a certain game someone told me recently
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 7: wasn't dead.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 5: I don't even think they have one hundred and twenty
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 5: players have more.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 8: Than we're gonna have, like one hundred and fifty.
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 5: That's that's your world of it.
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: That's your entire host of players at our world's event
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: right now?
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 5: Are the top one hundred and twenty world?
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: Help listen, this is just where world is held. This
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: is a complete celebration of the card game. Okay, so
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: why don't you go ahead to sit down on your
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: high house over there in Texas.
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 4: Okay, I hate to tell Wookie, but the prizing is
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 4: for top one twenty eight. But I believe the cap
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 4: is either two fifty six or five twelve.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: It is, I think, but they're going by hard drive sizes.
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: Now what the hell?
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 4: I am translating a website from French to English, but
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 4: I don't think the ticket information could be wrong.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 3: I think it really is just that good of a deal.
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 2: Are you sure it wasn't like four hundred, it's forty five,
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: it's thirty five YEARO. Yeah, I'm looking at it to Eve.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: They're prizing like, yes, he said, the prising starts at
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 2: the top one twenty eight, but the prizing for the
• 1:13:04

  Speaker 1: Overseas two right, Like nothing against it, right, Like, I mean,
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: the overseas community, especially for this game is massive. You
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: guys are blessed down by you to have a community.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: I literally, like I said, you guys have seen what's
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: running in my area. Now, Wisconsin kind of just sucks
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 1: as a whole because you know, like if it ain't
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: if it ain't magic, nobody cares, you know, So like any.
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 5: Game that's a lot of areas, though actually.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: It is a lot of areas. But even like card
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: games that are doing well like One Piece and I'm
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: trying to think that lor Kana, like all these card
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: games that are doing well right, like they don't even
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: get like local attention either.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 3: So yeah, in fairness, we did, we really struggled in Houston. Like,
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 3: if it wasn't for Julio kind of deciding that he
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 3: was going to step up for us, we weren't able
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 3: to get any traction anywhere. And you know, we're still
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 3: like we're small, We're not a big community. There's not
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 3: that many of us that show up to the weeklies.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 3: I hope that it gets that way, and I hope
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 3: that just general guys run the really early, just saying well,
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 3: we're all old people.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 4: The Houston ones are early, but the rest are.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: Usually I am the same age as you guys, and
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know you're the same age as me, Wikie.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 3: Not you're weren age as as the cast nomad. If
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 3: they weren't early, I would really struggle because even when
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 3: I when we finish, like and if I want to
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 3: sit around and visit and kind of chat for a
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 3: little bit, maybe get a couple of trades in, I'm
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 3: still not making it home until six thirty seven thirty.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: I was saying that I was saying for the online ones,
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 1: not the in personal ones.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I guess I was considering changing the start
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 7: time to like six thirty for a season two.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 5: But we're European.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 8: I'm looking at like play too, and that hurts.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 5: I am not worried about that.
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there's there's already enough people complaining about that in
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 4: a wall and it's already another tangent I don't want
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 4: to get on.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 7: But there's plenty of people to play in Europe that
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 7: could host European time events, right, Like, that's that's not
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 7: we're not.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 4: Going to We we love having all of you, but
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 4: if we're hosting it for free entry on our time
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 4: live in our time zone, it's just it is what
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 4: it is. But for anything somewhat close to that French tournament,
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 4: altered will be at Packed Some Plugged. I'm sure we'll
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 4: talk about it a little more in depth on a
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 4: future episode, but here is your warning now. There will
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 4: be like booster drafts, there will be constructed events, there
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 4: will be ways to get and keep product. So if
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 4: you're not considering going to Pack Some Plugged, maybe think
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 4: about it now and get further into it, and in
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 4: November pack some plugged. Yep, December sixth through the eighth.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 3: Have you have you any of you guys ever gone
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 3: to unplugged?
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: Well, I've never been in October, didn't it?
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 5: No, it was always been in Thember as far as
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 5: I know, or.
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 1: Maybe it was just pass in general, they are, but
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: it wasn't the November.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 2: Was it.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 5: Was it Amber?
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: Okay? Yep, I could just be wrong. It's been a while.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll be there altered, will be there all right.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 3: Ninety one bucks for a three day badge plus however
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 3: much it costs to get to Pennsylvania. I'm assuming it's
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 3: not because airfare.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, my ticket to not have an extremely shitty flight.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 4: I think I paid a total of one sixty what.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a pretty deep play. How the heck did
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 3: you arrange that?
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 8: Yeah? That seems like a really cheap flight Pennsylvania.
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 2: I have known I was going for a bit, and.
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 4: I don't have like checked bags or anything. Uh and
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 4: I don't know I have Like flights out of Dallas
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 4: are always really well priced. My ticket to go to
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 4: gen Con was like one hundred and twenty.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 3: Oh wow, I don't understand that because flying out of
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 3: Houston is three ever that cheap?
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why for anyway, companies, companies really need to
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 4: stop sleeping on THEFWS an area to not only hold
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 4: events but also hire people from there, because it's a
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 4: very good travel hub, like I don't have many issues
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 4: getting most places.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it don't sound like it sounds like you do
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: just fine.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 5: All right, but we're not done, no, so ace maybe
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 5: all right? So yeah, we have our championship event queue up.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 7: So Tuesday, the day you're listening to this, if you're
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 7: freshly listening to it, we are preparing for that six pm.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 5: It's not open public.
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 7: We had sixteen people qualify throughout the season, and I
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 7: have their names there.
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 5: This is actually like.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 7: Their rank as far as entering our championship tournament. Our
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 7: first seed is Pluca, second seed is myself. Third seed,
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 7: we've got the Keelon guy. Fourth seed we've got beltez
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 7: Chezar or he has another name in discord, it's like
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 7: not a pat or something. Fifth, we've got one of
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 7: our euro people, I think Sylvain. And then sixth we've
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 7: got Zared, seventh, one of Colescal's l e oh. Eighth,
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 7: we've got Sabront I think he's also Europe. Ninth, we've
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 7: got Maddox. Tenth place, we've got Noble Zach good job,
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 7: and then right next to them eleventh we've got ober
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 7: Row and then back to back to well we have
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 7: got Dexter who wheezed in there as well. And then
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 7: our last four slots start closing us out are Evron, Achlo,
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 7: Boston Beaver, which is another Houston local, and Eco. That
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 7: is our top sixteen. So congratulations with everyone who made it.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 7: It's gonna be uh it's still.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 3: Boston Beaver was a Houston local. Sorry, I didn't mean
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 3: to interrupt.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 5: He has never come to the store.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 7: I expected him to be more active, but I haven't
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 7: seen him actually show up to anything yet.
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 8: He has two kids. He says he's always busy. Whatever.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Keelan guy is in Switzerland by the way, Okay, okay.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 2: Yep, so.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, finishes at like two am or three am.
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 7: So yeah, they they all confirm their playing in this.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 7: It is going to be more along the timeframe of
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 7: like what AWA runs like roughly like four to five
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 7: ish hours to finish it because it is best of three,
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 7: so we're gonna see how that works. If it does,
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 7: it up meaning a little clunkier long, we might switch
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 7: back to best of one for our next season championship,
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 7: but we're going to try out the best of three
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 7: because that's something that has been talked about in different
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 7: places quite a bit as far as like the higher
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 7: level events being the best of three things when it
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 7: comes out of the finals. So I guess we'll get
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 7: to see how that works on Tuesday. But yeah, we've
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 7: got lots of people qualified. And then I believe you
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 7: Cole and Zach took some data on this, so talk
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 7: to us about what we saw over the season.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Zach did most of the work, but as I
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 4: mentioned earlier, it is up on the website to see
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 4: the top eight hero breakdown for each four weeks of play,
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 4: and then just some general information. I'm also going to
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 4: put who the season one champ is and what their
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 4: deck list was if you want more expansive decklists for
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 4: more placements. As we've mentioned before, Tom does thirty nine
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 4: cards dot com, so go over there real quick.
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 2: Though.
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 4: For season two teaser, I did the judging of time.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 4: Season two should start first week of December. Does that
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 4: sound right?
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah? I think we're aiming at to the third of
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 5: December is our start, But we've got some time.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 7: Between now and then, so before we close out the
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 7: cast and then we keep forgetting about this, he just
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 7: has sponsored our a championship. I no, we've mentioned a
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 7: couple of times, but he donated a whole retail box
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 7: that is helping out of the Prising.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 5: There was no fee for to enter this tournament, so
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 5: many of our top contenders.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 7: Actually, if they make it out around one, everyone that
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 7: makes at least top eight is going to get some
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 7: degree of booster peck Prising. So thank you again for
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 7: just supporting not only our local community in Houston, but
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 7: our online community here.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 5: Great, great guy.
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 7: If you don't do anything else, if you come, induce
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 7: and go buy. Say hi to Julio even if we're
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 7: not running a game. He just creative company.
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 3: Very very I'm going to extend the shout out to
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 3: Hulo just a little bit. This past weekend, I got
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 3: an opportunity to get back out to Houston. You know,
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 3: I I am the nomad, so I don't get to
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 3: go every week. And there we didn't get a big turnout,
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 3: but a couple of diehard friends shaped like Zach and
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 3: Dexter did make it out to hang out with me
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 3: and Juliu also made his inaugural run with US and
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 3: took a win off of Waru, first day he'd ever
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 3: played into a Waru first of all. Second with Subash.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 2: It was awesome.
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 3: It was so cool to see and I think it
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 3: deserves the shout out.
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 4: That is a very auger U style shout out. As
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 4: for data, I mean, I think I really think the
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 4: meta is shifting. Unfortunately, it's very very slow.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 5: That's only shifting to you.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 4: No, No, I'm I'm saying, like, looking generally over if
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 4: we take every tournament online and in person and we
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 4: kind of look at it, it is shifting, just very slowly.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 4: Like even in ACE, I mean we had the traced
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 4: or not ACE in a wall there was Waru and
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 4: Traced instead.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: Of the war and war and Wau.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 7: Watched there our last two weeks in ACE, right like
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 7: two weeks ago, Joe Kojo one over Waru and then
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 7: last week the finals was Wau versus Gojo Wara one.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 7: But still Kojo had like most likely had to beat
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 7: some Warrow to get there, and that is top spot.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 5: Like that is that's pretty cool.
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's exciting for me to look at a wall
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 3: last week and who knows what it's I don't actually
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 3: think it's because war is getting any worse. I think
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 3: it's just because people are getting a little bit tired
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 3: of either playing the same thing or playing into the
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 3: same thing maybe, and so we're seeing them experiment a
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 3: little bit. But I only see two Warrus in the
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 3: top twenty one on thirty nine cards dot Com. That's
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 3: not bad, Like there's some actual variety here.
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So, I mean looking at our tournament, it is
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 4: it is slow. I would say compared to that very
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 4: first two tournaments we saw the Gamers Guild Arizona and
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 4: then the first Ludo Trotter, there's a lot less Siggy
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 4: and there's more Kojo than as stayed consistent. But I
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 4: think as time goes on, people are just learning more
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 4: and experimenting more. And there was another event that you
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 4: can see on thirty nine cards dot Com as well
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 4: that I think it's the the Exalt Celebration. It has
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 4: a lot of Wardo, but it's still a little different.
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 4: But yeah, things are changing slowly. Was there anything that
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 4: stood out to you while you were hammering.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 2: This data in, Zach, I mean, like you said, like
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 2: looking at like the top eight heroes over the four
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 2: weeks that we've run ACE, we have out of the
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 2: thirty two top eight heroes, we have war Wu at
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 2: ten than it's six, and Kojo at five. And those
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 2: are like the biggest ones. Right, there's some intersparsons of
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 2: some other ones for top eight, but that's what it
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 2: has been feeling like as far as you know. That
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 2: follows what we've seen, that follows what we talked about it.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 2: You know, it is what it is, and it's it
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 2: is very interesting to see for sure. I it is.
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 2: It is good. I like it.
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: Is that gonna do us for events this week?
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I think I think that is.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: That's gonna wrap it up for this week. Thank you
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: all for listening, Thank you all for listening in the
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 1: live chat for all those of you who popped in,
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 1: and we'll see y'all next week.
