- 0:29Speaker 3: What's going on, everybody? I'm the one, the only, the W-O-O-K-I-E,
- 0:32Speaker 3: joined here by my normal cast of misfits. We have
- 0:38Speaker 3: the E to the D- No, we're not going to
- 0:40Speaker 3: do all that. We got the Minnesota Deuce, Ewok Jr.
- 0:44Speaker 4: Hello, Key Forge community. Glad to no longer be a Deuce.
- 0:48Speaker 3: No, you're still a Deuce. That name, it's hammered in
- 0:51Speaker 3: there now. That's just in Minnesota.
- 0:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 0:55Speaker 3: It's just like fraud. It went great outside the States,
- 0:57Speaker 3: but can't do anything in the United States itself. Eh,
- 1:00Speaker 3: it doesn't do that anymore either. Oh, well, yeah, this
- 1:02Speaker 3: is true. Speaking of, we have the PhD of Key Forge, Dr. M. Sheep. Hello.
- 1:09Speaker 3: And Alex, super tall bird, is with us today.
- 1:12Speaker 1: Hello, hello.
- 1:14Speaker 3: We will bring him in here just shortly. He's going
- 1:18Speaker 3: to talk to us a little bit about the Midwest
- 1:21Speaker 3: Key Forge Open. Is that where we want to start
- 1:24Speaker 3: it off there? Yes, most definitely. MD? I'm shortening it.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Yes, sir. Okay.
- 1:35Speaker 3: All right. We'll have at it. Alex, tell us a
- 1:40Speaker 3: little bit about the Midwest Key Forge Open.
- 1:44Speaker 5: All right, yeah, so this is going to be the
- 1:47Speaker 5: sixth annual event. This year we've got the charity called
- 1:51Speaker 5: the Backstoppers. They are a local St. Louis charity. that
- 1:55Speaker 5: is dedicating to supporting the families of first responders who
- 2:00Speaker 5: died in service. And that goes as far as financial
- 2:05Speaker 5: support to give the children college educations, all the way
- 2:10Speaker 5: down to emotional support and making sure that the families
- 2:13Speaker 5: have all of the services that they need after something
- 2:16Speaker 5: like that happens. So it's a really good charity this year.
- 2:20Speaker 5: We're really hopeful we can raise as much as we can.
- 2:23Speaker 5: And so, yeah, this year we are going to have
- 2:26Speaker 5: the event December 5th and 6th in St.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Louis, Missouri.
- 2:32Speaker 5: We are having it at the Nerd Merchant. They are
- 2:35Speaker 5: the local store here in St. Louis that has just
- 2:38Speaker 5: gone above and beyond to support the local community for
- 2:40Speaker 5: Key Forge. And so they're happy to have us this year.
- 2:45Speaker 5: And then, yeah, it's going to be a Saturday and
- 2:48Speaker 5: Sunday event. We'll have a tournament for Archon on Saturday
- 2:52Speaker 5: and a tournament for Sealed on Sunday. And we'll be
- 2:57Speaker 5: giving away all kinds of cool stuff in our goodie bag.
- 3:00Speaker 5: I don't know how many people are familiar with our
- 3:04Speaker 5: goodie bag from last year, but a lot of people
- 3:07Speaker 5: gave us some really good response. So we're happy to
- 3:09Speaker 5: do that and more this year. And, yeah, we're just
- 3:13Speaker 5: really looking forward to it. We're hoping we have a
- 3:15Speaker 5: great turnout.
- 3:17Speaker 3: Are you guys ready for the first line of betting
- 3:19Speaker 3: on archonscorner.game? Ready for the first line? Which goodie bag
- 3:27Speaker 3: is superior?
- 3:31Speaker 6: What are we comparing GGs in there? Cause like one
- 3:35Speaker 6: is a goodie bag and one is a disappointment bag.
- 3:37Speaker 4: Yeah. And I, and I will tell you, um, it's
- 3:41Speaker 4: just a bag of sadness. The Midwest key forge is
- 3:45Speaker 4: the goodie bag. So, uh, there's no question about that.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Would you get your goodie bag? I got a bag
- 3:49Speaker 3: of sad. I got a bag of what I always
- 3:52Speaker 3: get a pin. Yup. And one deck.
- 3:57Speaker 5: Yup.
- 3:58Speaker 3: Yup. Don't forget it's a Vaultmaster 26 deck. Maybe.
- 4:03Speaker 4: And that's pretty good this year, minus for me. You
- 4:07Speaker 4: might get a Vaultmaster 23 deck. Alex, I want to say,
- 4:10Speaker 4: you guys had the sweater sleeves last year. You got
- 4:13Speaker 4: the sweets trophy that was given. You're going to be big.
- 4:16Speaker 4: It has some really nice items in it.
- 4:20Speaker 5: We always go above and beyond... you know, I, I
- 4:24Speaker 5: didn't really realize how above and beyond we were until
- 4:28Speaker 5: I went to my first vault tour this year.
- 4:29Speaker 3: Well, I.
- 4:34Speaker 5: Wouldn't say that I enjoyed the atmosphere a whole lot, but, um,
- 4:38Speaker 5: that's true.
- 4:40Speaker 1: That's true.
- 4:41Speaker 5: But, um, but no, it's, we're, we're trying to expand
- 4:46Speaker 5: that as much as possible. Last year we, we had, um,
- 4:50Speaker 5: we had the nice, um, The nice boxes that we
- 4:53Speaker 5: had done, we had done all the keys, we had
- 4:55Speaker 5: done the ugly sweater sleeves, and this year we figured
- 4:59Speaker 5: we'd just kind of stick with that same thing and
- 5:01Speaker 5: just push how much stuff we can put in there.
- 5:05Speaker 5: So this year we're just trying to give away more sleeves.
- 5:08Speaker 5: We're working to see if we can make the playmats
- 5:12Speaker 5: part of the goodie bag. We're just trying to push
- 5:14Speaker 5: the envelope and put as much good stuff in there
- 5:16Speaker 5: as possible because we're if we're asking people to travel
- 5:20Speaker 5: and come out to an event, we want to make
- 5:22Speaker 5: sure that they're getting as much as we can possibly
- 5:25Speaker 5: give them for that.
- 5:26Speaker 3: What a novel idea.
- 5:28Speaker 4: I was just going to say, did you hear that, Gigi?
- 5:33Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. I was going to take my dig while
- 5:35Speaker 3: I got my shot.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Sure.
- 5:40Speaker 4: I will go ahead and say that the time frame
- 5:43Speaker 4: did change, so this is now after KFC, so we'll
- 5:46Speaker 4: be able to also... you're going to KFC one. We'll
- 5:49Speaker 4: see you next week.
- 5:51Speaker 1: And yep. Yep.
- 5:53Speaker 3: What are you talking about? This is coming out Wednesday.
- 5:55Speaker 3: We'll see you tomorrow.
- 5:57Speaker 4: We'll see you tomorrow.
- 5:57Speaker 3: There you go.
- 6:00Speaker 5: We, uh, I am currently working on the, uh, I'm
- 6:04Speaker 5: trying to wrap up and finish the trophy for the
- 6:06Speaker 5: Archon event. And I've, uh, I've talked with Josh at
- 6:10Speaker 5: GG and he said, it's all right if I go
- 6:12Speaker 5: ahead and bring that up and put it on display. So, Hopefully,
- 6:16Speaker 5: I can go ahead and bring that up and show.
- 6:18Speaker 1: It off to everybody at GFC this year.
- 6:19Speaker 3: I don't know if we want to do all that.
- 6:21Speaker 1: We're a bunch of animals.
- 6:22Speaker 3: We break nice things, typically. All the stuff I brought
- 6:25Speaker 3: to display is made at home. It's fine.
- 6:28Speaker 4: I will say your trophy from last year, team of
- 6:32Speaker 4: our guests who's in our audience, Dexter, make sure you
- 6:36Speaker 4: have some luggage space because I'm bringing that up for
- 6:38Speaker 4: you at Worlds. Um, but it will also be there
- 6:41Speaker 4: minus the light that's underneath that, which he, he took earlier.
- 6:45Speaker 1: So, okay.
- 6:48Speaker 5: Now I'm assuming you're talking about the, uh, the one
- 6:51Speaker 5: that went out at, uh, St.
- 6:53Speaker 1: Louis fall tour.
- 6:54Speaker 3: It did.
- 6:55Speaker 4: Yep.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Okay.
- 6:56Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 6:56Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Now, last year you guys did like the really sweet
- 7:01Speaker 3: boxes and whatnot. Are you guys doing anything like that
- 7:04Speaker 3: this year? Or was that, that was a little too.
- 7:05Speaker 4: Oh yeah.
- 7:06Speaker 5: We're, we're, we're doing that again. Um, This year, we're
- 7:10Speaker 5: changing up the color scheme on the boxes again, but
- 7:13Speaker 5: it's going to be the same quality and craftsmanship. And
- 7:17Speaker 5: we're just looking to get that finalized probably over the
- 7:21Speaker 5: next month here. I need to start getting them all
- 7:23Speaker 5: put together.
- 7:26Speaker 3: Now, if I buy one and I'm unable to attend,
- 7:29Speaker 3: can I get it at KFC?
- 7:30Speaker 1: Okay.
- 7:32Speaker 5: It won't be available at KFC, but we do ship
- 7:36Speaker 5: them out. If somebody buys a ticket and they're not
- 7:38Speaker 5: able to make the event, we absolutely will make sure
- 7:41Speaker 5: that they get their goodie bag.
- 7:44Speaker 3: How are you guys doing the goodie bag? Last year,
- 7:48Speaker 3: I think you had a website?
- 7:50Speaker 5: We have a website this year. We have a website
- 7:54Speaker 5: this year. It's the same site we had last year.
- 7:57Speaker 5: I've included it on all of the all of the
- 8:02Speaker 5: announcements that I put out on the various social medias. Um,
- 8:06Speaker 5: but it just has you go through a quick registration process. Um,
- 8:11Speaker 5: tell us whether or not you're attending. Uh, one of
- 8:14Speaker 5: the items in the goodie bag is a shirt. So
- 8:16Speaker 5: we ask for shirt size and, and, uh, yeah, once
- 8:20Speaker 5: you fill that out and submit your donation, if you
- 8:22Speaker 5: make the event, you get it there. And if you
- 8:24Speaker 5: don't make the event, it'll probably be in the mail
- 8:26Speaker 5: in the next week.
- 8:27Speaker 3: So what else should we know about it?
- 8:33Speaker 5: Um, I guess the, the biggest thing to say is this, uh,
- 8:40Speaker 5: this year's trophy is quite a big one.
- 8:44Speaker 1: Um, really went.
- 8:46Speaker 5: Above and beyond what I had done in the past. Um, I,
- 8:52Speaker 5: you know, I, I talked to, um, I talked to
- 8:55Speaker 5: a couple of, uh, the older veterans of the key
- 9:00Speaker 5: forge community. They said, um, The only one that might
- 9:04Speaker 5: be bigger than this was a guitar that got given
- 9:07Speaker 5: out at one of the events.
- 9:08Speaker 3: That was pretty sweet. Whatchamacallit guitar. Jean-Claude still have that?
- 9:16Speaker 4: Sure does.
- 9:17Speaker 3: Does he? 666 shards.
- 9:18Speaker 6: We'd all pay 666 shards now for anything.
- 9:22Speaker 3: Man, I will give you 4,311 shards for it. Transfer
- 9:24Speaker 3: them now. I wish any of us knew what we
- 9:37Speaker 3: were doing with Shards. Boys, you got any other questions
- 9:41Speaker 3: that you want answered?
- 9:44Speaker 4: When we come down, what should Sheep and I be
- 9:48Speaker 4: looking for for food since we are coming down?
- 9:52Speaker 5: There is a lot of stuff around the venue. The
- 9:55Speaker 5: venue is probably the most walkable area in St.
- 9:58Speaker 4: Louis.
- 9:59Speaker 1: It's Kirkwood St.
- 10:00Speaker 5: Louis okay um and there is tons of food everywhere
- 10:04Speaker 5: there's a restaurant right next door it's got really good
- 10:06Speaker 5: burgers really good fries um and if you go just
- 10:09Speaker 5: right down the street from that you've got a great
- 10:11Speaker 5: pizza place um there's basically any kind of food that
- 10:16Speaker 5: you could want right right there you won't even have
- 10:18Speaker 5: to walk more than a block.
- 10:21Speaker 4: And so that's where we should be staying then?
- 10:25Speaker 5: I would stay as close to the venue as you
- 10:27Speaker 5: can because the area is really walkable. Kirkwood does not
- 10:32Speaker 5: like to have hotels right there, but they've got a
- 10:35Speaker 5: lot of hotels that are right outside of Kirkwood. And
- 10:38Speaker 5: so if you stay there, it'll probably just be like
- 10:40Speaker 5: a two minute drive into Kirkwood and then find some
- 10:44Speaker 5: parking and then the whole rest of the day would
- 10:45Speaker 5: be walkable.
- 10:51Speaker 3: All right. Anything else? No, I'll take that as a no.
- 10:58Speaker 3: Silence is compliance. All right. So thank you again, Mr. Alex,
- 11:03Speaker 3: for coming on. Maybe as we get closer, we'll have
- 11:05Speaker 3: you guys on again, give it another shout out. So
- 11:09Speaker 3: make sure, mark it on your calendars. I will be
- 11:12Speaker 3: putting it on the ASC website here shortly for December 5th.
- 11:18Speaker 1: 5th, 6th. Five and six.
- 11:26Speaker 3: I wish I could show you our show notes because
- 11:28Speaker 3: last week it was just five slash six, so it
- 11:30Speaker 3: was really a five sixth. But I know what he meant.
- 11:34Speaker 3: I know what he meant.
- 11:35Speaker 1: That's okay.
- 11:37Speaker 3: But make sure you guys go do that. Get your
- 11:39Speaker 3: goodie bags and all the good stuff. Headed into the
- 11:45Speaker 3: portion of the show, right? This is kind of, this
- 11:48Speaker 3: is not for newbies, or this is for newbies. This
- 11:50Speaker 3: is not for you grizzled veterans of KFC out here,
- 11:55Speaker 3: all right? I already hear sheep moaning and complaining and bitching.
- 12:03Speaker 3: Can you hear it? This is bullshit. Yeah, right, there
- 12:06Speaker 3: we go.
- 12:07Speaker 4: Whoa, whoa, large donation.
- 12:10Speaker 3: Is it because he said it with force or what?
- 12:13Speaker 4: He did say it's force plus the actual... It's still
- 12:18Speaker 4: just one. I mean, it's been a little bit too,
- 12:21Speaker 4: so we're increasing.
- 12:22Speaker 3: Increasing? I'm going to go broke.
- 12:25Speaker 4: You are going to go broke. You were all over
- 12:28Speaker 4: that earlier.
- 12:31Speaker 3: But this is your what to expect when expecting to.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Go to KFC.
- 12:35Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sorry.
- 12:36Speaker 4: You're really going to go broke then.
- 12:38Speaker 3: Yeah, this is your what to expect when expecting to
- 12:41Speaker 3: go to KFC. 2026 edition. I guess that's what we're
- 12:47Speaker 3: going to call it. I really don't know what to
- 12:48Speaker 3: call it. I called it KFC number, what is this, three?
- 12:52Speaker 3: Or no, this is more than three. This is like five.
- 12:56Speaker 3: What KFC is? Five?
- 12:58Speaker 4: You can figure this out. Come on.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Four? When do we start doing KFCs?
- 13:02Speaker 1: 2020?
- 13:02Speaker 3: This is KFC.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Let's see, we had KFC, and then we had KFC
- 13:09Speaker 3: 2 Extra Crispy. No, then we had KFC 3. Was
- 13:14Speaker 3: the first one they did up there? It's 5.
- 13:16Speaker 4: It was.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Was I right? 5? 5.
- 13:22Speaker 4: Someone in the audience will argue 5. I think this
- 13:25Speaker 4: is 4.
- 13:26Speaker 3: I thought it was 4. This might be 4, because 22, 23, 24, 25, 26.
- 13:35Speaker 3: And then I took top 8 in Archon, and last
- 13:37Speaker 3: year I took top 8 in Alliance.
- 13:40Speaker 4: Does 22 count?
- 13:42Speaker 3: They call it a Key Forge Celebrations, right?
- 13:44Speaker 4: So, I mean, that'd be 22, 23, 24, 25, 26.
- 13:47Speaker 4: So this is 5.
- 13:48Speaker 3: Okay.
- 13:48Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't.
- 13:53Speaker 3: Know. Well, either way, this year is... We never officially
- 13:57Speaker 3: named it, but I put it in our Discord. KFC
- 14:00Speaker 3: is the PV Double Down. If y'all remember the Double
- 14:02Speaker 3: Down Sandwich, you're old now. Congratulations. Just by saying it,
- 14:08Speaker 3: I already know Sheeps knows exactly what the Double Down
- 14:11Speaker 3: Sandwich was. That's your stupid double chicken breast thing, right? Yeah.
- 14:18Speaker 3: Instead of a bun, it was two chicken breasts. That
- 14:21Speaker 3: was your bun. I think it had ham and cheese
- 14:23Speaker 3: inside or something. I don't remember what it was. But yeah, basically,
- 14:27Speaker 3: instead of bread, it was chicken. So, I mean, I
- 14:32Speaker 3: don't know. Give us some sort of props for trying them. Right?
- 14:37Speaker 1: No? Fine.
- 14:39Speaker 3: But we do have a ton going on. So if
- 14:43Speaker 3: you're not coming for... If you don't have an invite
- 14:46Speaker 3: to Worlds.

- 14:51Speaker 1: Come.
- 14:52Speaker 4: It's amazing. Literally, the people there by itself make it
- 14:56Speaker 4: completely worth it.

- 18:15Speaker 3: AC teams feasts. We are masters of playing hung over.
- 18:19Speaker 1: So.
- 18:21Speaker 3: We'll see you there. Go ahead. Go ahead.
- 18:28Speaker 4: I got nothing.
- 18:30Speaker 3: Did you say let's play three lies and a truth?
- 18:32Speaker 3: What was that? That was just straight truth right there.
- 18:35Speaker 3: Just spitting game. I don't know what you're talking about.
- 18:39Speaker 3: Let's see. That would be Wednesday. What do we got Thursday?
- 18:45Speaker 3: Snack Forge.
- 18:47Speaker 4: No, there's an actual event.
- 18:50Speaker 3: Ah, nobody cares! Everybody can have snacks! Thursday will be...
- 18:58Speaker 3: That's when we come up with the horrible drinks. No,
- 19:01Speaker 3: that's when Sheep starts pouring horrible drinks. Drink this. And
- 19:07Speaker 3: then you do it, and you're not 100% sure why
- 19:10Speaker 3: you do it, because you know it's going to be terrible.
- 19:12Speaker 3: And you're like, what's in this? And Sheep goes, it
- 19:15Speaker 3: doesn't matter. And then you have a whole cherry in
- 19:17Speaker 3: your shot glass, and you almost choke and die. But
- 19:20Speaker 3: somehow you chew it and find the pit, because that
- 19:23Speaker 3: was a real champ move. I got to pat myself
- 19:26Speaker 3: on the back for that one, because sheep put dark
- 19:29Speaker 3: liquor with a cherry in there, and I had no idea.
- 19:33Speaker 3: And I almost died. But I didn't, and I'm still here.
- 19:36Speaker 3: You're all welcome.
- 19:36Speaker 4: Yep.
- 19:37Speaker 3: We had a good time. We did have a good time.
- 19:39Speaker 3: Places he makes are worth it. Oh, God. It was
- 19:43Speaker 3: a horrible drink, number one. And then it had fruit
- 19:46Speaker 3: in it. I don't really enjoy fruit in my drink.
- 19:48Speaker 3: It was a... old-fashioned as a shot.
- 19:52Speaker 2: It was fine.
- 19:52Speaker 3: You make weird old-fashions. I'm just going to say it.
- 19:56Speaker 3: It had orange and cherry. Yeah, but you like... Keep your, like,
- 20:02Speaker 3: fruit in there. Like, I don't, I don't, you make weird,
- 20:04Speaker 3: yours are like slushies.
- 20:06Speaker 6: No, no, no, you go to really shitty bars and
- 20:09Speaker 6: have really shitty old fashions.
- 20:11Speaker 4: No.
- 20:11Speaker 3: Because old fashioned should have muddled fruit in it. It should,
- 20:14Speaker 3: but it, like, it, it shouldn't be a slushie. Like,
- 20:19Speaker 3: it should be a sippable drink. Not when it's in
- 20:23Speaker 3: a shot form. Well, okay, fine. You just put it
- 20:26Speaker 3: all in your mouth and swallow. Yeah. Anyways.
- 20:32Speaker 4: Leading your honor. Anyway, so for the rest of us
- 20:35Speaker 4: who are here, World Championship realization, you got your last
- 20:39Speaker 4: chance qualifier. That's very exciting.
- 20:42Speaker 3: DM again, boys. DM. How many spots will be open
- 20:48Speaker 3: for the last chance qualifier, Ewok? Negative three.
- 20:54Speaker 4: Yeah, it's with Both first and second place going ahead
- 20:59Speaker 4: and being awarded positions. Last year was already really tight.
- 21:05Speaker 4: I don't know how we're fitting 24 in that number anyway.
- 21:09Speaker 4: So it will be a question, and it will be
- 21:13Speaker 4: an interesting one. Will they expand the field if all
- 21:16Speaker 4: applicants show up?
- 21:18Speaker 3: And if they do expand the field, how far will
- 21:20Speaker 3: they expand the field to?
- 21:23Speaker 4: That I don't know.
- 21:25Speaker 3: You can read all about this on keyforging.com. I lied.
- 21:32Speaker 3: It's nowhere to be found.
- 21:34Speaker 4: No, that's... What do you mean nowhere to be found?
- 21:36Speaker 4: That is... It's under.
- 21:39Speaker 3: You don't know how many slots they're going to open up?
- 21:42Speaker 4: No, what you do know... Okay, so under Key Information,
- 21:45Speaker 4: Key Forge Celebration Information page, it's linked. You can go
- 21:49Speaker 4: ahead and see Thursday's events... And under Last Chance Qualifier,
- 21:53Speaker 4: you can see what time it's starting, 10 to 1030,
- 21:57Speaker 4: deck construction, then 1030 to 11, and the tournament starting
- 21:59Speaker 4: at 11. You can go ahead and see there. But
- 22:04Speaker 4: what you're actually asking about is for Friday, which is
- 22:07Speaker 4: the Sealed Worlds. And Sealed Open, right?
- 22:13Speaker 3: No, no.
- 22:13Speaker 4: Sealed Open is for everyone who's not in Worlds.
- 22:17Speaker 3: Right. So that's the same day. That's Friday.
- 22:20Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:21Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 22:21Speaker 3: That's what I said, and then you told me no.
- 22:23Speaker 3: But anyway.
- 22:24Speaker 7: The event will be limited to 24 unless a larger
- 22:29Speaker 7: number of qualifying players from around the world claim their spots,
- 22:32Speaker 7: at which point we'll adjust the tournament size accordingly.
- 22:34Speaker 4: And so that offers them access to increase, which I
- 22:38Speaker 4: do anticipate happening. But they're going to have to have
- 22:43Speaker 4: an idea of how many people register.
- 22:45Speaker 3: 36 invites for most formats, 37 for sealed.
- 22:49Speaker 1: Yep.
- 22:53Speaker 3: There is.
- 22:57Speaker 6: At least a number, I'm not actually going through the list,
- 23:01Speaker 6: but there is a fair number of double-qualified Archon Alliance people,
- 23:06Speaker 6: so that brings it down. I have no ability to
- 23:13Speaker 6: go through this list and tell you who's.
- 23:15Speaker 3: Actually coming, though. Right, and then, I mean, yeah.
- 23:18Speaker 1: I mean.
- 23:21Speaker 6: It looks like for last chance qualifier, it's going to
- 23:28Speaker 6: be a couple of odd slots, right? They're going to
- 23:33Speaker 6: be like, oh, well, 25 signed up, so here's 26.
- 23:37Speaker 6: That's what's in the last chance qualifier. My question is,
- 23:41Speaker 6: is if they get over 24 and even numbers registered
- 23:46Speaker 6: in Archon Alliance sealed, Will there even be any? Will
- 23:51Speaker 6: they make two last chance qualifier spots for that?
- 23:54Speaker 1: Okay.
- 23:55Speaker 4: I'm going to argue right here, right now, that unlike
- 24:00Speaker 4: last year, if it is an even number, you need
- 24:02Speaker 4: to put two in. You should have at least two
- 24:05Speaker 4: spots that someone can qualify and be that random person
- 24:09Speaker 4: being entered, especially if you're already over 24, making the
- 24:12Speaker 4: clean cut no longer clean. Make it even. Put two
- 24:16Speaker 4: people in. Honestly, the first year that we had people
- 24:18Speaker 4: who were entered, it was very exciting that I could
- 24:22Speaker 4: actually make it and then go ahead and participate in
- 24:25Speaker 4: Worlds and do well. I like that. I like it
- 24:28Speaker 4: as a last chance qualifier. Am I the only one there, boys?
- 24:35Speaker 4: You don't care?
- 24:36Speaker 3: For what? I'm sorry. I missed what you said.
- 24:38Speaker 4: Well, I think that we should have at least two
- 24:40Speaker 4: people if it's an even amount.
- 24:41Speaker 3: I think you should open the field.
- 24:44Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you.
- 24:45Speaker 3: But we don't do 2LO anymore, so what the fuck
- 24:48Speaker 3: do I know? I just roam around here naked normally.
- 24:53Speaker 4: Outside of that.
- 24:55Speaker 3: There were 40 invites for each last year. There were
- 24:59Speaker 3: less Nationals and one less Vault. That's what Josh is saying.
- 25:04Speaker 3: OT is saying. Yeah, so there were less invites this year,
- 25:09Speaker 3: but also less players, sort of, so more of the
- 25:13Speaker 3: people who qualified, I think, are Likely to come. But
- 25:21Speaker 3: I don't actually know. Everybody's financial situation.
- 25:24Speaker 4: That's interesting. So last year. Where we only took first place.
- 25:29Speaker 4: And then nationals. We had 40 invites.
- 25:33Speaker 3: Last year was first and second.
- 25:37Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:37Speaker 6: Because we sat there. And when you got second. In
- 25:41Speaker 6: Minnesota at open. The question was does your second count.
- 25:45Speaker 6: Last year was first and second.
- 25:50Speaker 4: No, last year was only first. Yeah, I think you're right.
- 25:56Speaker 4: The open qualified you for this year, which was the argument.
- 26:01Speaker 3: I think you were second in the open, right? I
- 26:04Speaker 3: was second in the open. Nobody really knew what was
- 26:06Speaker 3: going to happen. But no, weren't you for the LCQ?
- 26:10Speaker 6: Yeah, runner-ups got it last year. I'm looking at the
- 26:13Speaker 6: list of invites on Arcana Canna. It was Winners and
- 26:17Speaker 6: Runners Up. It was the year before it was Winners only.
- 26:22Speaker 3: Okay.
- 26:24Speaker 6: Either way, I want to get to Logan Composer here.
- 26:26Speaker 6: 23 was Runner Up as well, looks like.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Yes, 23 was Runner Up because I was Runner Up
- 26:33Speaker 3: and Archon in 20... No. So 22 was the first
- 26:38Speaker 3: year and it was first places.
- 26:40Speaker 1: Yes.
- 26:41Speaker 3: Yeah, no. 24... 22. Nope, 22 was not, we didn't
- 26:51Speaker 3: have any worlds. 23 was the first time we had worlds.
- 26:55Speaker 3: 23 was only winners. 24 was winners and runners up.
- 26:59Speaker 3: 25 was winners and runners up. Now Josh is probably
- 27:01Speaker 3: going to correct me. While Josh is busy correcting me,
- 27:04Speaker 3: let's get to Rogan. Yeah, we don't know what's going
- 27:07Speaker 3: on anymore.
- 27:07Speaker 4: Either way.
- 27:12Speaker 3: Let's get to Logan Capone's comment of too many DM
- 27:15Speaker 3: sealed days.
- 27:17Speaker 4: I agree on that. And I don't even have.
- 27:21Speaker 3: A course in the race here. I don't remember ever
- 27:23Speaker 3: complaining about sets for a while. Is DM that miserable
- 27:27Speaker 3: of a sealed experience? I only have two DM sealed experiences.
- 27:33Speaker 4: It's not a great sealed experience.
- 27:35Speaker 6: It is depressing. I think it's fine. I think it
- 27:39Speaker 6: is depressing to have to do it. two days in
- 27:41Speaker 6: a row again like last year we were two days
- 27:44Speaker 6: in a row the same set too right like.
- 27:47Speaker 4: Is there a reason that we couldn't just have one
- 27:50Speaker 4: of those be the present set in this case dm
- 27:53Speaker 4: and one of them be your vault master.
- 27:56Speaker 6: Because because they already have dm printed that they want
- 28:00Speaker 6: to get rid of and i think that's i think
- 28:03Speaker 6: that's how the yes the decisions are made it's like
- 28:06Speaker 6: what What do we.
- 28:08Speaker 3: Got laying around here, boys?
- 28:13Speaker 4: It's clear when you have Vault Master as one of
- 28:16Speaker 4: your side events that that's what's happening.
- 28:18Speaker 6: Which is why tokens is a side event because they
- 28:20Speaker 6: got tokens sitting in the warehouse.
- 28:23Speaker 4: And I get that. I will say because the Vault
- 28:28Speaker 4: Master 24 is still there on Thursday, you can also
- 28:32Speaker 4: do Dynamic Duel, which is going to be sealed Archon,
- 28:36Speaker 4: so you have Vaultmaster 24, and you're going to partner
- 28:38Speaker 4: up with someone. And one will be going ahead and
- 28:45Speaker 4: playing it as an Archon, and the other one, this
- 28:49Speaker 4: has been a bit, I'd seen this.
- 28:55Speaker 1: Words.
- 28:57Speaker 3: They're tough, aren't they? They are. Have you tried adding
- 29:01Speaker 3: cuss words in? Makes it easier. No.
- 29:04Speaker 4: All right.
- 29:05Speaker 3: Oh, sorry. Sorry.
- 29:06Speaker 4: One is sealed Archon and the other is sealed adaptive.
- 29:09Speaker 4: That's why I completely blew it from my brain.
- 29:12Speaker 3: On your dynamic duos. Yeah.
- 29:13Speaker 4: On the dynamic duel. So one is sealed adaptive. So
- 29:16Speaker 4: you're going to have, you're going to have your decks
- 29:18Speaker 4: and then from there sealed Archon and sealed.
- 29:21Speaker 1: Yeah, man.
- 29:22Speaker 3: Those are random pairings. I am. Yeah, I, I am.
- 29:27Speaker 6: I am so afraid I would get if, if I
- 29:29Speaker 6: explained it that I get randomly paired to somebody else
- 29:33Speaker 6: who I, also hates adaptive, and because I'm too nice
- 29:38Speaker 6: of a guy, I would get stuck playing adaptive.
- 29:43Speaker 3: I'll be awful. So I don't think I can play
- 29:46Speaker 3: in dynamic duos cause it's too risky.
- 29:50Speaker 4: So we have LCQ dynamic duels keynote coming in at
- 29:54Speaker 4: seven 30. Um, meet the ghosts and this is on
- 29:59Speaker 4: friday yeah no this is all on thursday then thursday.
- 30:04Speaker 3: So we're we're all gonna be at set like this
- 30:07Speaker 3: keynote we'll be like come on we got snacks and
- 30:11Speaker 3: drinking and goofing off to do oh well no but
- 30:14Speaker 3: i i think this year like yeah well at least
- 30:18Speaker 3: for me i'm sorry for me i do i want
- 30:20Speaker 3: to ask my question at the meet the ghosties but
- 30:23Speaker 3: i have a feeling i don't even know I feel.
- 30:25Speaker 6: Like sometimes we ask because Chase is different than Keynote.
- 30:29Speaker 3: Well, we have the Keynote, and then we're going to
- 30:31Speaker 3: be told a whole bunch of stuff, right? And we're
- 30:32Speaker 3: going to follow the same trajectory that we followed last year.
- 30:37Speaker 3: We're going to have a community event with these sweet keys,
- 30:41Speaker 3: and then we're going to have store championships, and then
- 30:45Speaker 3: we're going to have community event.
- 30:46Speaker 4: Hold on.
- 30:49Speaker 3: And then we're going to have vault tours, right? We're
- 30:51Speaker 3: going to have vault tours in all these different places. Oh, wait,
- 30:54Speaker 3: we don't know those places yet. And then after that,
- 30:58Speaker 3: we're going to have our storyline event or whatever we
- 31:02Speaker 3: call our summer event. And then right back here at KFC.
- 31:09Speaker 3: Did I miss anything?
- 31:09Speaker 4: I disagree. I think you're going to see a different
- 31:12Speaker 4: trajectory because....
- 31:16Speaker 3: Is that when they cover KFO?
- 31:18Speaker 4: No, so KFO is under the keynote.
- 31:20Speaker 3: I think KFO is getting its own thing.
- 31:22Speaker 4: No, it's under keynote presentation. So that's 7.30. Yeah, okay.
- 31:26Speaker 3: So that's at the keynote.
- 31:27Speaker 4: Yeah, that's keynote. And so you have CTP and KFO.
- 31:29Speaker 6: So, like, CTP doesn't have to show up. He just
- 31:32Speaker 6: lets Riku go. And we all go, I can't understand you, Riku.
- 31:36Speaker 4: Well, I will say the smartest, the smartest thing that
- 31:38Speaker 4: they did right there is actually having KFO before the
- 31:41Speaker 4: meet the ghosts. Because right now I think that online,
- 31:45Speaker 4: like the group as a whole, we have a phenomenal community,
- 31:48Speaker 4: but some people are really frustrated that things haven't happened
- 31:51Speaker 4: from your learn to play event from your summer events. Um,
- 31:56Speaker 4: even talking about a reduction in a vault here for
- 31:58Speaker 4: the U S uh, It's frustrating for in-store play. I
- 32:04Speaker 4: think there's some phenomenal, exciting things to look forward to
- 32:07Speaker 4: for online play. That'll stymie a little bit, but there's
- 32:12Speaker 4: some individuals that are frustrated. That is 100% true. I
- 32:16Speaker 4: don't think that you can come out and just say, hey,
- 32:19Speaker 4: we're going to have the same trajectory.
- 32:21Speaker 3: So, Wookie, I disagree. I a million percent agree with you. No,
- 32:27Speaker 3: obviously their trajectory will change somewhere in the middle of that.
- 32:32Speaker 3: And I do think we need some answers for what
- 32:35Speaker 3: happened to the quote-unquote beginner event, right? I mean, I
- 32:40Speaker 3: don't know if any store needs more discovery, but... we
- 32:46Speaker 3: were promised like these sweet new keys were going to
- 32:49Speaker 3: come out. Um, and as somebody who collects a good
- 32:52Speaker 3: chunk of the keys, I don't collect the years and whatnot,
- 32:54Speaker 3: but I have a set of each of them. I mean, shoot,
- 32:57Speaker 3: I got a set of whoppers. I got a, I
- 32:58Speaker 3: got a couple third party sets too. I was like,
- 33:01Speaker 3: Oh sweet. New key is something for me to get.
- 33:03Speaker 3: And then I never got it right. Like we're in
- 33:05Speaker 3: previous years. What do we get? The key chain last year, right?
- 33:08Speaker 3: The key forge key chain. Yeah.
- 33:11Speaker 4: The key chain, which is actually pretty sweet.
- 33:13Speaker 1: I do.
- 33:13Speaker 3: It is a pretty cool key chain. Um, it's a
- 33:15Speaker 3: little noisy. If you keep it all together and then
- 33:17Speaker 3: use it as a keychain.
- 33:19Speaker 1: But.
- 33:23Speaker 3: And then we had the Into Darkness.
- 33:29Speaker 4: Right?
- 33:29Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 33:32Speaker 4: It was Darkness, yeah.
- 33:33Speaker 3: Yeah, so... Neither of which we had this year, like
- 33:38Speaker 3: you said, and a reduction in one vault, so... which
- 33:43Speaker 3: I'm actually still kind of shocked to this day that
- 33:47Speaker 3: Philly wasn't on the list. Like, cause Philly was one
- 33:50Speaker 3: of the bigger ones. So I still don't understand that move.
- 33:53Speaker 4: I just hope that there is an admission, like some
- 34:02Speaker 4: honest feedback, because frankly, Gigi has gone very, very quiet.
- 34:08Speaker 4: I don't get any of that. No, but, But that's
- 34:12Speaker 4: what some individuals are asking for is just, hey, yes,
- 34:15Speaker 4: we intended for this. It didn't happen. We'll try and
- 34:19Speaker 4: do better next year.
- 34:22Speaker 3: That is such a canned answer.
- 34:25Speaker 4: I know.
- 34:26Speaker 3: I don't want that. I don't want a canned answer.
- 34:28Speaker 4: I want a, hey, here's what happened.
- 34:32Speaker 3: The admission means nothing. We know they did wrong. They
- 34:37Speaker 3: told us we were going to have an event, and
- 34:38Speaker 3: then we're in KFC. We have Stockhausen Syndrome? Is that
- 34:46Speaker 3: what it's called? I mean, they didn't get shit done, right?
- 34:49Speaker 3: What do you want them to say?
- 34:50Speaker 6: They're going to say, we had other priorities and we
- 34:53Speaker 6: didn't get this shit done because we did other stuff.
- 34:55Speaker 3: You want them to say that, dude.
- 34:57Speaker 1: We're.
- 35:01Speaker 6: You're going to get the story. We're a small company.
- 35:04Speaker 6: We have to prioritize. Your shit doesn't hit the priorities.
- 35:09Speaker 6: Your shit, your game, your game that is keeping the
- 35:12Speaker 6: company kind of afloat right now wasn't one of the priorities.
- 35:16Speaker 3: Sorry. Yeah. Sheep, come on.
- 35:22Speaker 1: Wookiee.
- 35:23Speaker 3: That's what the fucking truth is. God damn it.
- 35:28Speaker 4: What do you want?
- 35:31Speaker 3: I don't know what I want. I feel like at
- 35:34Speaker 3: this point I am owed some sort of accountability. You're not.
- 35:40Speaker 3: You paid for a deck and you got what you
- 35:43Speaker 3: paid for. Hell, you ain't even paid for a deck
- 35:45Speaker 3: in forever. That's not true. I've bought plenty of decks.
- 35:51Speaker 3: I mean, this is why one of the reasons... None
- 35:53Speaker 3: of us have. We're just using all the Cindy stuff. Well, yeah,
- 35:56Speaker 3: for the past few weeks. Yeah, absolutely. But I've bought decks.
- 35:59Speaker 3: I still have decks in my backpack. But this is,
- 36:01Speaker 3: I mean, this is kind of one of the reasons
- 36:03Speaker 3: why I'm kind of like, do I even fuck around
- 36:06Speaker 3: and find out with GameFounds? Like, what's... I mean, as
- 36:15Speaker 3: we have talked about... Have we become the side bitch
- 36:18Speaker 3: at this point in time? Everything else is so much
- 36:21Speaker 3: more important. We're the side bitch now? This isn't news.
- 36:25Speaker 3: We've talked about this before.
- 36:27Speaker 6: Neither one of us have pledged to a game found
- 36:29Speaker 6: since Woe because of exactly this. Because we don't feel
- 36:32Speaker 6: like the money that we're putting in there is returned
- 36:36Speaker 6: to us. So we're willing to spend the money to
- 36:38Speaker 6: buy decks on the day we play it.
- 36:40Speaker 3: I don't feel it's being used for anything for the
- 36:43Speaker 3: hobby that I want. I feel like all the excess
- 36:47Speaker 3: revenue goes to whatever it is at this point, whatever
- 36:51Speaker 3: they want to do with it.
- 36:53Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 36:54Speaker 4: Well, I will say that drafts, you are missed that
- 36:57Speaker 4: you're not here. I'm still supporting game. And well, but,
- 37:04Speaker 4: but there are two of us who are here and
- 37:06Speaker 4: I understand that it's important, but.
- 37:08Speaker 3: Like, it's important, but at what time, like, but at
- 37:11Speaker 3: what time do you pull your dollars back and go, listen,
- 37:15Speaker 3: it's not okay for you to beat me like a
- 37:18Speaker 3: rented mule. They're preventing that now in Mexico. You can't
- 37:24Speaker 3: do that anymore. At what point does Ewok Jr. say,
- 37:28Speaker 3: you are not reinvesting dollars into the game that I'm
- 37:34Speaker 3: giving you dollars for. So therefore, I mean, I feel
- 37:38Speaker 3: like it's already happening.
- 37:40Speaker 4: But the short answer is, I still enjoy this game.
- 37:42Speaker 4: I play this game. I want to play this game.
- 37:45Speaker 4: And so by.
- 37:46Speaker 3: Yep. I'm with you.
- 37:49Speaker 4: You're in a spot of what? I'm not going to
- 37:52Speaker 4: buy product? Well, I am going to buy product.
- 37:53Speaker 3: I'll buy product, but I can't support your game fund.
- 37:56Speaker 3: I'm going to go support my local store, as I
- 37:59Speaker 3: have been. That's the choices we can make. That's where
- 38:06Speaker 3: I'm at. I know Sheep says we've had this talk before.
- 38:09Speaker 3: I'm sure we have somewhere along the way. But It's
- 38:15Speaker 3: very frustrating. You all got mouse memories. You cannot remember
- 38:19Speaker 3: what we've talked about before. Yeah, you're right.
- 38:23Speaker 4: I mean, we actually have a sheet for this, boys.
- 38:26Speaker 3: It is like 300 pages long or something. Who's going
- 38:29Speaker 3: back to find it? It definitely does not cover our rants.
- 38:33Speaker 3: Our rants are normally not scheduled. That's for sure.
- 38:39Speaker 4: On a note continuing, Thursday you have Crucible Quest, so
- 38:43Speaker 4: the little scavenger hunt by playing different houses is returning,
- 38:48Speaker 4: and sealed groups are there, so that should be a
- 38:50Speaker 4: good time. Sealed groups do start at noon, so if
- 38:52Speaker 4: anyone is lucky enough.
- 38:55Speaker 1: To have qualified.
- 38:55Speaker 3: So when you scrubbed out real early.
- 38:57Speaker 4: Well, but if, or if you have qualified for two
- 39:01Speaker 4: of the events and it doesn't matter... I.
- 39:03Speaker 3: Hope Tennessee is taught y'all a lesson.
- 39:05Speaker 1: It's over.
- 39:07Speaker 3: By the way. What's that? If you're going to scrub,
- 39:13Speaker 3: scrub out early.
- 39:15Speaker 1: Right?
- 39:16Speaker 6: Yeah. Don't scrub out one round after the sideline starts.
- 39:20Speaker 3: Don't be that jerk that's three and two and be like,
- 39:23Speaker 3: I got a shot. Just scrub out. If you don't
- 39:28Speaker 3: think it has the legs... and you're not in a...
- 39:33Speaker 3: If your loss column is one or greater, just go
- 39:38Speaker 3: to the side event. Did you mention this, Ewok, when
- 39:43Speaker 3: I wasn't listening to you? Which is awesome.
- 39:46Speaker 1: Right.
- 39:46Speaker 3: And the additional detail that was that.
- 39:49Speaker 4: Was really needed there. I appreciate that.
- 39:51Speaker 3: So on that on the LCQ, it says undefeated players
- 39:54Speaker 3: get to choose a seat in any any world championship
- 39:59Speaker 3: of their choice.
- 40:02Speaker 4: That is what it says this year. Yes, it did
- 40:04Speaker 4: not say that previously.
- 40:05Speaker 3: So that I mean, if.
- 40:06Speaker 6: That's if they're sent to that, then even if they're
- 40:09Speaker 6: at an even number because of regular worlds, like if
- 40:11Speaker 6: the first person comes up and makes it odd, then.
- 40:14Speaker 6: they will keep going down until they fill the even seat.
- 40:20Speaker 3: That's the way it would work, I would think. Which
- 40:22Speaker 3: article is this in? This is in the, if you
- 40:25Speaker 3: click on more information under last chance qualifier. Okay, I'm
- 40:31Speaker 3: in the welcome to the celebration one right now, so.
- 40:35Speaker 1: Let me go to this.
- 40:38Speaker 3: Ah, there you go.
- 40:39Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 40:42Speaker 3: Okay. Alright, but yes, we do have Thursday and Friday,
- 40:46Speaker 3: which will be full of Donkey Measures sealed.
- 40:53Speaker 1: Barry!
- 40:54Speaker 5: Barry!
- 40:55Speaker 3: I like Barry's thing. I don't know. How does that work?
- 40:59Speaker 3: I'm 1-0. I'd like to drop and claim my undefeated slot, please.
- 41:03Speaker 3: Thank you. Try it, Barry. Let's see what happens. Give
- 41:09Speaker 3: it a shot.
- 41:12Speaker 1: Um.
- 41:13Speaker 3: That is.
- 41:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 41:15Speaker 4: I mean, this is very, very clear to me. Finishers
- 41:19Speaker 4: who are undefeated.
- 41:20Speaker 3: So I finished one at all.
- 41:23Speaker 4: No, you have to finish the tournament after six rounds.
- 41:26Speaker 6: Then it continues on to a sentence that says cannot
- 41:29Speaker 6: guarantee any available seats will be offered.
- 41:32Speaker 1: Correct.
- 41:32Speaker 4: So it actually is covered under both whether they're going
- 41:34Speaker 4: to start.
- 41:35Speaker 3: That is weirdly worded. That's typical. OK, so they can
- 41:40Speaker 3: just do whatever they want.
- 41:42Speaker 1: They can do what they want.
- 41:42Speaker 3: But yeah, right.
- 41:44Speaker 4: Friday is sealed worlds and the sealed open. It is
- 41:49Speaker 4: the donkeys again.
- 41:50Speaker 3: Sad, but the donkey measures. I don't know. I had one.
- 41:54Speaker 3: I had one real bad experience and one real good experience.
- 41:58Speaker 3: Guy born shadows or bust. Yeah, one of those two.
- 42:03Speaker 1: Yeah, one of those two. Yeah.
- 42:06Speaker 4: Uh draft standard is coming back so you'll draft in
- 42:09Speaker 4: the afternoon so wookie you can do that one that's.
- 42:12Speaker 6: On friday i'm so excited i'm so excited did you
- 42:15Speaker 6: not talk about snack forge enough because.
- 42:17Speaker 3: You haven't gotten there yet we're still in the middle of.
- 42:20Speaker 4: That sheet well no no no technically that was after
- 42:23Speaker 4: that's thursday night sheep is correct.
- 42:25Speaker 3: Is it the night during Snack Forge?
- 42:29Speaker 6: And that's exactly what Snack Forge is during the keynote
- 42:32Speaker 6: and the Meet the Ghost.
- 42:36Speaker 3: It's after the keynote and you meet the ghost? No,
- 42:39Speaker 3: it starts at like 7.30.
- 42:41Speaker 4: Yeah, so notice that Meet the Ghost is actually 8.30
- 42:44Speaker 4: central for 45 minutes going to roughly 9.15. And Snack Forge.
- 42:50Speaker 3: I will be so drunk by then. I was going
- 42:52Speaker 3: to say, when does Snack Forge start? It'll be like
- 42:55Speaker 3: six of us over at Snack Force just getting hammered.
- 42:58Speaker 3: I'm done with that. What are we drinking?
- 43:03Speaker 4: Well, I... I am fine with you guys going... I
- 43:09Speaker 4: am fine with you guys going there because then I
- 43:11Speaker 4: can ask my questions and it can be nice and
- 43:13Speaker 4: quiet for the rest of us who will actually want
- 43:16Speaker 4: to have a conversation.
- 43:17Speaker 3: I'm going to flag down someone and be like, I
- 43:19Speaker 3: just want to ask this question real quick and get
- 43:20Speaker 3: my answer right away so I can go to Snack Force.
- 43:23Speaker 3: I'm in for Snoresville.
- 43:25Speaker 4: Hey, if I get there and you need to be
- 43:28Speaker 4: face punched, I'll ask Arbitrator and Arbitrator.
- 43:31Speaker 3: She's going to have his underwear on his head. Who
- 43:33Speaker 3: are you kidding?
- 43:33Speaker 6: I mean, like if it's anything like the previous ones,
- 43:38Speaker 6: holy buckets. I walked out last year because it was
- 43:40Speaker 6: so boring.
- 43:41Speaker 3: I watched him.
- 43:42Speaker 4: But it's it's not.
- 43:43Speaker 3: You know, that's it's it's the same thing as the keynote.
- 43:48Speaker 3: It's no real answers. A bunch of nothing. It's all
- 43:52Speaker 3: canned answers. Yeah, it's really canned answers.
- 43:55Speaker 4: Well, for Meet the Ghost, it says, Ghost Gals who
- 43:57Speaker 4: will not be answering questions for Key Forge Online, nor
- 44:00Speaker 4: will there be a representative of Yellow King present for
- 44:03Speaker 4: a Q & A.
- 44:04Speaker 3: I don't think a lot of people are going to
- 44:06Speaker 3: have like a million and one questions for KFO. I
- 44:09Speaker 3: think they have a million, and you'll get the exact
- 44:13Speaker 3: same answers as you're going to get during the other thing,
- 44:15Speaker 3: which is we're not ready to answer those questions. You
- 44:18Speaker 3: know who will be there to take those on?
- 44:22Speaker 4: Listen, stop and listen. It says they will not be answering,
- 44:27Speaker 4: so you don't get to even ask. So if that's
- 44:29Speaker 4: the case, you can have all your questions you want.
- 44:32Speaker 3: You have DeadSync and Riku both there who are the ones,
- 44:37Speaker 3: I guess, kind of in charge of that shit. So
- 44:40Speaker 3: fucking have at it. Like, what do you mean? Just
- 44:43Speaker 3: calm and beat them with sticks until they tell you
- 44:45Speaker 3: what you want to know. We know that the ghosties
- 44:48Speaker 3: have nothing to do with KFO. I don't think that's
- 44:52Speaker 3: a secret. I don't think anybody who's excited for KFO
- 44:55Speaker 3: has that confused.
- 44:59Speaker 4: And understand that DeadSync and Riku already said that they
- 45:04Speaker 4: would take time to meet with different creators on the side.
- 45:09Speaker 3: Okay.
- 45:11Speaker 4: Again, reading. Reading.
- 45:14Speaker 3: I don't mind being a side bitch. It's not that bad.
- 45:18Speaker 4: I love you guys.
- 45:20Speaker 6: I mean, I seriously like you guys enjoy your keynote
- 45:25Speaker 6: and meet the ghost.
- 45:26Speaker 3: I don't think I will be in attendance. Sheep, I'm
- 45:30Speaker 3: I'm not going to lie. I normally stream the event.
- 45:34Speaker 3: I'm joining.
- 45:36Speaker 6: No, you have to stream it so I can watch
- 45:37Speaker 6: it later when I'm trying.
- 45:39Speaker 3: To fall asleep. No, they put it on their website.
- 45:42Speaker 3: It's fine. Oh, okay, great. It'll be next year sometime,
- 45:47Speaker 3: but it's whatever.
- 45:50Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 45:52Speaker 3: But either way. You can join Snackforge. So do you
- 45:56Speaker 3: want to go back to Friday? I don't know. Snackforge, Snackforge, Snackforge.
- 46:02Speaker 3: We're going to go eat snacks, play Keyforge, maybe play
- 46:05Speaker 3: other games. Tattoo Wookiee on every inch of his body.
- 46:10Speaker 4: There will be tattoos and there will be some sweet keys.
- 46:13Speaker 3: I will have a full sleeve of temporary tattoos, sir.
- 46:18Speaker 3: Just lick them and stick them on me.
- 46:20Speaker 4: Will there be a full moon at KFC this year?
- 46:24Speaker 3: Depends on who it is.
- 46:25Speaker 4: I don't.
- 46:27Speaker 3: Know. We've never had a full moon at any KFC
- 46:30Speaker 3: any year. What are you kidding? Yeah, I've always managed
- 46:34Speaker 3: to actually keep my pants on. I've taken my shirt on.
- 46:37Speaker 3: I've never taken my pants off. I'm not an animal. Goddamn.
- 46:40Speaker 2: All right.
- 46:41Speaker 3: So, to Friday. No, we're done with Friday. Are we
- 46:43Speaker 3: done with Friday? It's a sealed, sealed draft. It's a
- 46:51Speaker 3: whole lot more DM, yep. More DM. And since Saturday...
- 46:56Speaker 3: Saturday's the same as all Saturdays, so okay. Either go
- 47:00Speaker 3: into Alliance and ruin some poor guy's day who was
- 47:04Speaker 3: promised a top 8 slot.
- 47:05Speaker 4: Well, there's both Worlds or Archon.
- 47:10Speaker 3: Worlds or Opens.
- 47:11Speaker 4: Yes. You have Worlds or Opens, sorry. And then you
- 47:14Speaker 4: have Archon or Alliance.
- 47:16Speaker 3: Yeah, you can join Alliance and ruin somebody's top 8 day.
- 47:19Speaker 6: 6 p.m. fractures of time, right? That's the only thing we.
- 47:25Speaker 4: Really care about.
- 47:26Speaker 3: The semi-exciting portion of the night?
- 47:28Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, sealed championship will happen on Saturday night.
- 47:32Speaker 4: That's pretty sweet. Or fractures in time is what everyone
- 47:37Speaker 4: looks forward to. I will say for fractures in time,
- 47:41Speaker 4: that's scheduled basically 5.30, 6 o'clock on Saturday night. And
- 47:47Speaker 4: it is sealed three to four rounds.
- 47:52Speaker 6: Um last year and if you went three oh you
- 47:55Speaker 6: got another deck good.
- 47:56Speaker 3: Job yep or uh drinking no we'll play for.
- 48:00Speaker 4: No no fractures you're gonna play the new set man
- 48:03Speaker 4: and it is i i like this where with the
- 48:06Speaker 4: new set it's you know then we go it's sealed
- 48:10Speaker 4: pick one so i don't think.
- 48:12Speaker 6: We played donkey no it was just single deck it's
- 48:15Speaker 6: just it'll just be single deck again this year i
- 48:17Speaker 6: bet yeah but.
- 48:18Speaker 4: I'm saying like pick a deck that's.
- 48:20Speaker 3: That's good No, it's open a deck and hope it's good.
- 48:25Speaker 4: Play will then begin with a single Archon deck.
- 48:28Speaker 6: Yeah, you get handed a deck and you hope you
- 48:31Speaker 6: got like I did.
- 48:34Speaker 4: I still would like, well, you had a good deck.
- 48:36Speaker 4: I still would like to see two so you could
- 48:38Speaker 4: go back and showcase that with your locals. Because having
- 48:43Speaker 4: one deck is fun.
- 48:44Speaker 3: Or have friends with decks. What if I have neither?
- 48:48Speaker 4: Yeah, well.
- 48:50Speaker 3: And you live the same as me. It's fine.
- 48:53Speaker 4: Okay.
- 48:53Speaker 3: And then Sunday. Same as usual. You got the World
- 48:56Speaker 3: Championship Finals for Archon and Alliance. Open Finals for Archon
- 49:00Speaker 3: and Alliance. The team event is now the Triumvirate. Triumvirate. Triumvirate. Yes. Okay. Triumvirate.
- 49:13Speaker 4: Yes. That's what they're playing off.
- 49:15Speaker 3: Triumvirate. What's wrong with team event? They could even just
- 49:19Speaker 3: say team clash.
- 49:19Speaker 6: Oh, done because somebody came up with a clever word
- 49:22Speaker 6: and wanted to use it.
- 49:23Speaker 3: It's clearly we're spending too much time on that and
- 49:26Speaker 3: not time on other things anyways then the.
- 49:28Speaker 6: Award stinking alliance or i mean sorry not alliance it's
- 49:33Speaker 6: more stinking uh adaptive And Alliance. It's Archon Adaptive Alliance.
- 49:40Speaker 4: Yeah, it's Tokens of Change.
- 49:42Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
- 49:43Speaker 4: So instead of it being DM Talk, like last year,
- 49:50Speaker 4: and Amber Skies, it's... Just Tokens. Yep. But it's Archon
- 49:55Speaker 4: Sealed Alliance and Sealed Adaptive. I really like in here
- 49:59Speaker 4: that you can only use one of each of the
- 50:03Speaker 4: tokens for your team, though.
- 50:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 50:05Speaker 3: That's not what it says. What does it say, Sheep?
- 50:12Speaker 6: It says the token you choose. It basically says after
- 50:16Speaker 6: you open six decks, you're going to have six tokens
- 50:19Speaker 6: and you can take your token card and put it
- 50:21Speaker 6: with any pod. It doesn't stay linked to the pod.
- 50:25Speaker 1: Yes. Right.
- 50:25Speaker 3: Like is traditional. But if you open three copies of Thrall,
- 50:29Speaker 3: all three people can play Thrall.
- 50:33Speaker 1: Nope. Judge.
- 50:38Speaker 4: Token creatures transcend deck boundaries and can be deployed with
- 50:41Speaker 4: any deck in your arsenal, but may not be duplicated.
- 50:45Speaker 6: Right, which means you can't use the same card twice.
- 50:49Speaker 6: But if you have multiple copies of it, you can
- 50:52Speaker 6: use the multiple copies of it.
- 50:55Speaker 3: It's saying if one of us.
- 50:56Speaker 6: Opens Thrall, we can't all be like, oh, we're using
- 50:59Speaker 6: that copy of Thrall. That's what it reads to me.
- 51:03Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm going to say... It shouldn't read that way.
- 51:09Speaker 6: Definitely, because if you open six copies of the same
- 51:12Speaker 6: token for some godforsaken reason, what would you do?
- 51:21Speaker 4: I defer to GG. Judge?
- 51:24Speaker 3: Absolutely. They will give clearer instructions.
- 51:26Speaker 6: My reading of it is they transcend boundaries, which means
- 51:29Speaker 6: you'll have six tokens, and when you sit down to play,
- 51:32Speaker 6: you can take any of those six token cards with you.
- 51:35Speaker 4: Yes, that is exactly what can happen. So you're going
- 51:38Speaker 4: to have to really think about which of those tokens
- 51:40Speaker 4: should be your Archon, which should be for Sealed Alliance
- 51:43Speaker 4: and which should be for Adaptive.
- 51:45Speaker 1: But.
- 51:47Speaker 3: Wouldn't Archon have to play the token it has? No. Nope,
- 51:52Speaker 3: not in this.
- 51:53Speaker 4: Yeah, so with all of the decks there, the idea
- 51:56Speaker 4: is to basically have some choice. But if we just
- 52:01Speaker 4: have that any... token can be used you're looking for
- 52:05Speaker 4: the same okay i open multiple katina fiends i open
- 52:08Speaker 4: multiple thralls i open like but that's not but this
- 52:11Speaker 4: is this is to limit that so that you can
- 52:13Speaker 4: only one katina fiends are bust but that's what i'm
- 52:17Speaker 4: saying is that it forces you okay are you gonna
- 52:20Speaker 4: use the fiend in the alliance are you gonna use
- 52:22Speaker 4: it in the in the archon.
- 52:24Speaker 3: If you're lucky enough to open two convenience Container Fiend decks,
- 52:27Speaker 3: good job, and you get to win your bracket. And
- 52:32Speaker 3: you win your Vaultmaster 23 deck. Here you go.
- 52:35Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 52:37Speaker 4: Well, again, prizes were pretty good last year.
- 52:39Speaker 3: And you get a firm slap on the ass.
- 52:43Speaker 4: Undefeated teams will receive additional prizes.
- 52:46Speaker 3: Oh, I guess Drazkor was here. He was a speaker,
- 52:52Speaker 3: and then he was a speaker, and then he was
- 52:54Speaker 3: a speaker, and then a speaker, and a speaker, and
- 52:55Speaker 3: a speaker. He's been drinking. Is that what that is?
- 53:00Speaker 3: That's what that is. Okay, right on. I was like,
- 53:05Speaker 3: what is going on here? Like, he's like, look at this. Oh,
- 53:08Speaker 3: here he is. Draz?
- 53:11Speaker 1: Hi. Hi. How are you feeling?
- 53:15Speaker 3: I'm doing good.
- 53:17Speaker 1: We're doing great.
- 53:23Speaker 4: I am the drink. Are you here?
- 53:25Speaker 3: What? Is you drink?
- 53:30Speaker 1: Maybe.
- 53:33Speaker 4: Drez, I needed you earlier when I was getting beat
- 53:36Speaker 4: up here about our GG game found. And now you come.
- 53:39Speaker 1: I was offended you every day.
- 53:42Speaker 3: He is way too drunk to defend you.
- 53:48Speaker 4: He's a lover, not a fighter.
- 53:50Speaker 3: He's a lover, not a fighter.
- 53:52Speaker 1: I thought I was a few minutes late. It turns
- 53:54Speaker 1: out I'm an hour and 15 minutes late.
- 53:56Speaker 3: Are you in a different time zone?
- 53:58Speaker 1: No.
- 53:58Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm just bad. Where are you?
- 54:01Speaker 1: Charlotte? You're in the same time zone as normal. Yeah.
- 54:03Speaker 1: We were at the bar.
- 54:03Speaker 4: Shocker.
- 54:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 54:19Speaker 2: And so like we're having drinks and like, um, I'm like,
- 54:24Speaker 2: I don't know about this. Like the drinks were really
- 54:26Speaker 2: good and like the bar scene was good. But the
- 54:28Speaker 2: hardest thing about knowing about a bar for the reviews,
- 54:31Speaker 2: nobody talks about the music. The music was super lame,
- 54:35Speaker 2: but like the drinks were really good. So we were
- 54:36Speaker 2: like debating what to do. We were like, maybe it's
- 54:39Speaker 2: like not that busy. It's like, maybe we just talk
- 54:41Speaker 2: to the bartender. But then this chick came in and
- 54:45Speaker 2: this like pumpkin shirt, with like her stomach out and
- 54:50Speaker 2: she's like starts shaking her booty and we're like she's
- 54:53Speaker 2: obviously having a good time like damn us old farts
- 54:56Speaker 2: there's no way we're gonna get up and change the
- 54:57Speaker 2: music she's dancing in front of this dude we're like
- 55:00Speaker 2: oh we'll just suffer uh and then we had some
- 55:03Speaker 2: more drinks and then scooby-doo came in what like yeah
- 55:08Speaker 2: like literally a dude and it.
- 55:12Speaker 3: Is literally almost yeah it's.
- 55:14Speaker 2: All right let me let me figure out on my
- 55:16Speaker 2: phone This is why you should join the chat. All right.
- 55:24Speaker 2: There's a whole bunch of people in the chat. Take
- 55:26Speaker 2: a look at this bar. And you're like.
- 55:28Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's a cool bar.
- 55:30Speaker 3: Look all the way over on the right.
- 55:31Speaker 1: That's great.
- 55:34Speaker 2: All the other freaking scooby-doo is sitting in the bar
- 55:37Speaker 2: having drinks like dude a full should we should.
- 55:41Speaker 3: We all dress up in costume for like when we
- 55:44Speaker 3: go to the bar for celebration.
- 55:47Speaker 4: We're already past we're already past.
- 55:49Speaker 3: Yes y'all lucky we should well but then the answer
- 55:53Speaker 3: is will we and the answer is no no we
- 55:55Speaker 3: won't we're just hoping you will I come out of
- 56:01Speaker 3: the hotel. Where's your guys' costumes? What do you mean?
- 56:04Speaker 3: We're all dressed up. As he shows up as Ghostbusters girl.
- 56:08Speaker 3: That's right.
- 56:11Speaker 1: I'll wear the flamingo shirt. It'll be good. It'll be
- 56:16Speaker 1: a good time. So yeah, KFC. I'm going to be there.
- 56:21Speaker 3: We know.
- 56:21Speaker 2: As long as work doesn't explode.
- 56:25Speaker 1: Stupid work. That's why I drink.
- 56:31Speaker 3: He drinks because of work and he works so he
- 56:34Speaker 3: can drink.
- 56:36Speaker 1: I mean, there's a symmetry. Isn't that what yin and
- 56:39Speaker 1: yang is all about?
- 56:40Speaker 3: Is it like a Venn diagram?
- 56:43Speaker 1: Yeah, you know. Something. Some sort of something.
- 56:48Speaker 3: Which is funny because we were just about to wrap
- 56:51Speaker 3: this up because we finished KFC. We're done. No, no.
- 56:54Speaker 3: We didn't do community events.
- 56:56Speaker 4: We didn't do community events, but while you.
- 57:00Speaker 3: Didn't do our own community event again.
- 57:03Speaker 4: While Draz was here, I did get confirmation. No duplicate
- 57:07Speaker 4: means exactly what it says. If you can field three
- 57:10Speaker 4: different tokens, sheep, you must. If you open enough to
- 57:13Speaker 4: make that impossible, it's keyforged rule. Do as much as
- 57:17Speaker 4: you can. I feel like that's a cop-out.
- 57:21Speaker 3: What do you mean?
- 57:21Speaker 4: That's the whole point, is to try and have you
- 57:26Speaker 4: play different tokens, not be forced into the same ones.
- 57:30Speaker 4: I know you don't.
- 57:32Speaker 3: So I'm not going to.
- 57:32Speaker 4: But all the adaptive people can be super happy. Your
- 57:37Speaker 4: sealed alliance is sealed, so you're fine in Archon. But
- 57:41Speaker 4: create a team. It'll be a blast.
- 57:43Speaker 3: There's this dumb duos event.
- 57:47Speaker 1: What's wrong about that? Are you going to partner?
- 57:49Speaker 4: No. So the frustration is, is that they're using old
- 57:54Speaker 4: product of VM 24 and then talk. But for the.
- 57:59Speaker 1: Those are both.
- 58:02Speaker 3: Mindsets may be the worst randomly assigned partners. Why is it?
- 58:08Speaker 3: So what the.
- 58:10Speaker 4: What the frustration was for the for the partner is
- 58:14Speaker 4: that it is it's random. And so you don't get
- 58:17Speaker 4: to pick who your dynamic duo is.
- 58:20Speaker 1: Oh, no.
- 58:22Speaker 4: And sheep was like, so if I, if my partner
- 58:25Speaker 4: doesn't want to play adaptive and I don't want to
- 58:26Speaker 4: play adaptive, he's feels he's going to be forced into it.
- 58:29Speaker 4: So whoever is sheep's partner, force them into playing adaptive.
- 58:33Speaker 1: I'm totally going to do that. I'm going to rig it.
- 58:36Speaker 6: That the way that's going to work is I'm like,
- 58:38Speaker 6: so you're playing adaptive and they go, no.
- 58:40Speaker 3: And I go, okay, I will. I concede all my games.
- 58:43Speaker 3: I'll catch you later.
- 58:46Speaker 2: Just go into it. That's not what you're going to do, Sheep.
- 58:49Speaker 2: You're just going to bid 36 chains.
- 58:53Speaker 3: No, 45, maybe 50. I thought it was capped at 36. No,
- 59:00Speaker 3: not anymore. I thought it was. I thought they capped
- 59:03Speaker 3: it in the AFG. It doesn't matter.
- 59:05Speaker 4: And then you say, go. But I do want you
- 59:10Speaker 4: to have an opponent who's going to literally play all
- 59:12Speaker 4: their cards, tap them multiple times, untap them, just to
- 59:16Speaker 4: make sure the game extends. Nope. They're actually going to
- 59:21Speaker 4: tap them just for you.
- 59:24Speaker 3: Let's call a spade a spade. I'm going to tap them.
- 59:28Speaker 4: No.
- 59:29Speaker 3: I tap for a dollar. tip over a shake.
- 59:34Speaker 4: Anyway award ceremony because we're still going on sealed groups
- 59:37Speaker 4: so all the usuals uh.
- 59:41Speaker 3: Some of us will be halfway home maybe hope.
- 59:43Speaker 4: Yeah a little nobody really knows i i think i
- 59:46Speaker 4: think it's going to be an amazing time we hold
- 59:49Speaker 4: on it is a little bit of a bummer it.
- 59:51Speaker 3: Is we didn't talk about yeah we'll we'll.
- 59:53Speaker 4: Get there i do think that a little bit of
- 59:55Speaker 4: a bummer dress uh for dm but the short answer
- 59:59Speaker 4: dress loves you apparently.
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: Love's the wrong word. I think DM is a fine
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: sealed set. I do not think it's amazing. I do
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: not think it is terrible. I think it is fine.
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: You know, I was reflecting. I do think it's unfortunate
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: that like we have two days in a row well
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: no that we have two somewhat divisive sets in a
- 1:00:25Speaker 2: row right you like coming going from tv which is
- 1:00:30Speaker 2: like the strongest set ever and this mechanic some people
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: don't like going to dm which is a very weak
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: set and that pisses off a whole other set of
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: people like i don't know that's very divisive like I
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: feel like Ember Skies was not super divisive.
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: I really love Ember Skies.
- 1:00:49Speaker 4: I know.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: I don't think too many people hate Ember Skies. I
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: don't think it was super divisive or anything. Perfectly bad
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: takes dislikes Ember Skies.
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: But does that even count? Really?
- 1:01:05Speaker 3: Pretty much you take whatever he says and go.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: With the opposite. Yeah, do the opposite. Exactly. Exactly.
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: So, um, but really he hates, I guess it doesn't
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: surprise me. Cause that's an outrageous statement. What does he
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: like about it?
- 1:01:17Speaker 3: I don't know. He likes the prophecies.
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
- 1:01:23Speaker 3: He likes, he likes the randomness.
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: But Emberskies came up before.
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: He didn't even know prophecies were a thing.
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: Oh, what does he like? Why does he hate Emberskies?
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: That I don't know.
- 1:01:31Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:01:32Speaker 3: I was going to say, what does he like about PV?
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: Like he really likes the prophecies. He likes the randomness. Yeah.
- 1:01:38Speaker 3: You know, I mean, The less meaning your decisions have,
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: the better chance he's got to beat me.
- 1:01:49Speaker 4: I mean, I will argue for Amber Skies, I'm excited
- 1:01:52Speaker 4: for Fractured Skies bringing in those house enhancement pips. I
- 1:01:55Speaker 4: thought Amber Skies was fine. No, but that's what I'm saying.
- 1:01:59Speaker 4: It brought in some really unique game experiences because of
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: where those pips fell, and I do think that is
- 1:02:07Speaker 4: something that GG heard and bringing it back for Fractures
- 1:02:11Speaker 4: in Time, which will be for....
- 1:02:15Speaker 3: I think Ember Skies probably.
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: I'm excited. I'm excited to try it.
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: I'm hoping.
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: Ember Skies wasn't strong enough to compete with GR. There
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: are some.
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: It was not as strong as GR.
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: I don't want the one-off scenarios of the really strong
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: AS decks because they do exist. I'm not claiming that
- 1:02:38Speaker 3: they're not real. Because obviously you have Olympio. There's a
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: couple other ones out there that are strong.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: Is there any DM decks that compete?
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: I don't know. I might play mine in the open
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: and see what happens.
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: I might play mine too. We'll see.
- 1:02:56Speaker 3: It's only an 84 sass, but it is like a
- 1:02:58Speaker 3: 30-something on the Drez score.
- 1:03:01Speaker 4: There you go.
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: I played mine in Baltimore. Didn't go so well.
- 1:03:04Speaker 3: No. I'm assuming I'm going to have a very similar
- 1:03:08Speaker 3: experience but i also don't have any strong pv to
- 1:03:10Speaker 3: really make it matter so unless something falls in my
- 1:03:15Speaker 3: lap uh yeah it won't uh i i don't know
- 1:03:22Speaker 3: i think i could be convinced to go out instead
- 1:03:25Speaker 3: of playing in the open Instead of playing in the open?
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: Go out drinking?
- 1:03:32Speaker 3: Whatever.
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: Disc golf?
- 1:03:34Speaker 3: There's, uh... There is a driving range. There is a Topgolf.
- 1:03:39Speaker 3: Not Topgolf.
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: I'm gonna play. I'm gonna be there. I'm gonna play.
- 1:03:44Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gonna eat my O2. Like, don't get
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: me wrong. Like....
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: Well, you know, all the good players are gonna be
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: in the world, so it's just us slubs for our con.
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: That'll be, uh... You know? Yeah. Um.
- 1:03:58Speaker 4: there are a lot of individuals in the open and it's,
- 1:04:02Speaker 4: it's brutal. So good luck to you.
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: I mean, it's, there are, there are a lot of
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: good players. There are a lot.
- 1:04:07Speaker 4: Of good players there, man.
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:04:10Speaker 4: Uh, community events. You want to go ahead and talk
- 1:04:12Speaker 4: to those sheepy?
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: Sure.
- 1:04:15Speaker 6: Uh, the first one is cube draft put on by panic. So, uh,
- 1:04:20Speaker 6: you listen to that on HF F S as well.
- 1:04:24Speaker 6: He talks about it there somewhere. Um, 16 players, um,
- 1:04:30Speaker 6: the 6th at 3.
- 1:04:32Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's Friday. Yeah, it's Friday at 3, but
- 1:04:36Speaker 4: Panic will be able to put it on. This one
- 1:04:38Speaker 4: is limited, so if you're interested in that cube draft.
- 1:04:42Speaker 6: And he's got his own custom house in his cube,
- 1:04:46Speaker 6: so you can play with some stuff.
- 1:04:47Speaker 3: Why do my decks not save to my account? Even
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: when I save them. Because you don't click the it's
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: my deck.
- 1:04:54Speaker 6: Scanning a deck and making it your deck are two
- 1:04:59Speaker 6: different things.
- 1:05:01Speaker 3: I do, but that's where my frustration is, because none
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: of my decks are in here. You're doing something wrong.
- 1:05:07Speaker 4: Focus.
- 1:05:08Speaker 6: So for the whole weekend, there's a community card event.
- 1:05:15Speaker 6: That's recurring from last season, right? Lots of community cards. Fun,
- 1:05:21Speaker 6: exciting ways to play Keyforge and collect more cards.
- 1:05:26Speaker 3: And if you.
- 1:05:28Speaker 4: If you miss the community card events that you're just
- 1:05:31Speaker 4: talking about that. So DeadSync now has the community card
- 1:05:36Speaker 4: event registrations live. That's right. Just happening right now.
- 1:05:40Speaker 3: He's capping that baby at 100. So, you know, you
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: may actually want to pre-reg for that.
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: For which one?
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: The what's capped?
- 1:05:48Speaker 3: Community card event.
- 1:05:49Speaker 4: Community card event. A lot of people have actually been like,
- 1:05:52Speaker 4: taking that back to their locals and being able to
- 1:05:55Speaker 4: use it throughout the year. So that heads huge. Hey,
- 1:05:58Speaker 4: we got last year.
- 1:05:59Speaker 2: Draft score is in the community card this time.
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: So to get a draft score foil, to get a foil.
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: I'm almost positive they.
- 1:06:10Speaker 3: Tried to do people that work a part of it
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: last year. If you did it last year, you didn't
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: get to do it this year.
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: Right, so they're scraping the bottom of the barrel, so
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: now there's draft score foils, and to get a foil,
- 1:06:22Speaker 2: all you gotta do is you gotta just show me
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: that you are a patron, and you get a foil.
- 1:06:30Speaker 3: Oh, sorry. So my deck is up there with all
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: the other drafts. I am number seven.
- 1:06:37Speaker 4: Wookiee, you're still on this.
- 1:06:39Speaker 3: Let it go, man. I have the seventh strongest draconian
- 1:06:42Speaker 3: donkey major deck.
- 1:06:43Speaker 6: The next event going, oh, actually, Community Card wraps up
- 1:06:48Speaker 6: on the 7th.
- 1:06:49Speaker 3: So you don't get to play that on Sunday. Where Kagi,
- 1:06:53Speaker 3: Kagi Live, Adaptive Best of One, you can play all weekend. Hey, cheap, cheap.
- 1:07:02Speaker 4: For that language, that's going to be triple the cost
- 1:07:05Speaker 4: of your usual donation to the swear jar.
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: You're saying Adaptive? Yep.
- 1:07:10Speaker 4: You did it again.
- 1:07:11Speaker 3: You are not learning.
- 1:07:14Speaker 4: I'm in.
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: I will pay.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: You should just say tits or something. That's not going
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: to cost you as much.
- 1:07:22Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: And then the last community event is the Warcast Reforged
- 1:07:33Speaker 3: Book Exchange. This is a recurring one from last year
- 1:07:35Speaker 3: as well. You can listen to the Warcast Reforged to
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: hear a little bit more about that.
- 1:07:41Speaker 4: That was also on Sloppy Labwork because you're on there, Sheep.
- 1:07:45Speaker 4: I could hear your sweet, sweet sex voice.
- 1:07:47Speaker 3: This year I'm bringing a book to throw at Tobin.
- 1:07:50Speaker 4: Why?
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: Okay, well. That's how I'm exchanging books with him.
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: What book are you choosing, sir? I'm very interested.
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: All I'm saying is when he returns fire, you're going
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: to be the one who ends up injured.
- 1:08:03Speaker 4: Arbitrator... is allowing this.
- 1:08:07Speaker 3: I haven't decided yet. I'm looking at my stack of
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: books right now. Got a few hardcovers in there. Nobody knows.
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: This is a fun way to see some literature that
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: other community members have been into. Maybe find something new.
- 1:08:27Speaker 3: Try something different. Should I grab my wife's photojournalism book?
- 1:08:33Speaker 3: Should we all just bring... textbooks it's a textbook for
- 1:08:36Speaker 3: college we still have would you how about some linear
- 1:08:41Speaker 3: algebra oh yeah and algorithms and java.
- 1:08:47Speaker 2: So you guys you guys don't know that shit anymore

- 1:08:52Speaker 3: Or would you like my 1910 general Ocean Manual? I
- 1:08:59Speaker 3: want the Ocean Manual.
- 1:09:00Speaker 4: 1910 General. If you want any of these sweet books,
- 1:09:06Speaker 4: you do not have to bring a book here.
- 1:09:07Speaker 3: Especially the 1910 Ocean Manual.
- 1:09:09Speaker 6: 1910 is the number. It's not from the year 1910.
- 1:09:15Speaker 4: I know.
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: It's got letters in front of it too, doesn't it?
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: Don't swallow coal whole. Make sure to chop it up
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: into tiny pieces and inhale it. That's what the 19th
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: century says. What the fuck are.
- 1:09:27Speaker 3: You talking about? This show is going.
- 1:09:31Speaker 4: Off the rails.
- 1:09:31Speaker 3: Are we done here?
- 1:09:32Speaker 4: I've lost complete control of this troupe.
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: Oh, you have a new name.
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: Drunkor.
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: Drunkor is best, Kor. Maybe I need to go back
- 1:09:40Speaker 3: to the hotel lobby.
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: And get another drink.
- 1:09:54Speaker 4: Can we put that on his jersey, please?
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: I think it's too late now, but next year we
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: can definitely make this happen. And please, a child's large.
- 1:10:07Speaker 4: What have you listened to lately? What have you listened
- 1:10:13Speaker 4: to that's been enjoyable for a good book? Because we
- 1:10:16Speaker 4: know you don't read.
- 1:10:18Speaker 3: He does a lot of driving. I used to do
- 1:10:19Speaker 3: that when I was driving, too.
- 1:10:21Speaker 4: There's nothing wrong with that. What book have you actually
- 1:10:23Speaker 4: listened to?
- 1:10:24Speaker 3: Well, I'm currently doing a full re-listen of Player Manager
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: by Ted Steele.
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:10:31Speaker 3: And it's about a guy who gets superpowers for managing
- 1:10:35Speaker 3: and playing soccer in Europe, or in England.
- 1:10:40Speaker 4: You're talking about on Tuesdays.
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: Enjoyable.
- 1:10:43Speaker 4: Definitely something that we should all listen to read.
- 1:10:45Speaker 2: Man, I first I thought you were talking like player coach,
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: like work bullshit.
- 1:10:50Speaker 3: Now I did two of them for a minute. I
- 1:10:53Speaker 3: was like, oh, OK.
- 1:10:58Speaker 4: Seems a little lit RPG, like kind of.
- 1:11:01Speaker 6: It's definitely lit RPG, but it bridges into sports and.
- 1:11:07Speaker 6: British humor, so I like it like quite a lot.
- 1:11:11Speaker 3: How am I not surprised? Seven books and like, you know,
- 1:11:15Speaker 3: 70 hours to listen through here. So that's good.
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:11:18Speaker 4: So if you want to participate in the book exchange again,
- 1:11:21Speaker 4: you don't need to bring a book, but, uh.
- 1:11:24Speaker 3: But you're going to be without a weapon. If you
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: don't just saying.
- 1:11:29Speaker 4: Uh, and this year, if you are bringing anything that
- 1:11:32Speaker 4: is not age appropriate, you can put a picture of it, uh,
- 1:11:36Speaker 4: on the counter, uh, And then they'll go ahead and
- 1:11:40Speaker 4: make sure I get to you. Yeah, that's that's what
- 1:11:42Speaker 4: that's what's been saying. I actually wanted to put a
- 1:11:45Speaker 4: picture of the old Key Forge.
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: Book.
- 1:11:52Speaker 3: Because that's not age appropriate.
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: What?
- 1:11:54Speaker 4: No, no.
- 1:11:55Speaker 3: Yeah, nobody should read that of any age. Oh, all right.
- 1:12:01Speaker 4: Well, there's the dry humor.
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:12:03Speaker 4: And that's all I got.
- 1:12:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like, who's bringing what that isn't age?
- 1:12:08Speaker 3: Who brought what last year? That was like, oh, we
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: can't put this out there. Tell them about Grendel. Grendel
- 1:12:14Speaker 3: is not age appropriate.
- 1:12:19Speaker 4: Having a disclaimer could help.
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: Oh, shit, guys. I brought a DVD. Good luck finding
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: something to play it.
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: I know. Weren't they talking about VHS on the workhouse before?
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: I think I heard them talk about that.
- 1:12:39Speaker 4: It was a wonderful time having you here.
- 1:12:41Speaker 3: I saw VHS the other day.
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: Did you?
- 1:12:44Speaker 4: I did.
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: Did you have to press the tracking button to make
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: sure it was all good?
- 1:12:52Speaker 3: I asked that gentleman to leave my store. I didn't ask,
- 1:12:58Speaker 3: but I told him that there's no well they're all
- 1:13:04Speaker 3: disney vhs's and everybody you know disney collectible i guess
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: worth a shot you know what i mean the worst
- 1:13:11Speaker 3: thing i say is no so.
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: Okay here i got i got a late ad to
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: community events so josh pay attention down late.
- 1:13:20Speaker 4: Ad we're way past oh my goodness.
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: Late ad here we go josh Streaming. Streaming should be
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: a community event, and I.
- 1:13:30Speaker 3: Thought about this at Nashville.
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: Streaming is a community event when it comes to GG.
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: What are you talking about? That's what I'm saying. Make
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: it an official community event. If you stream two games,
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: you should get a ticket.
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: I actually was going to suggest this, but I was like,
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: it's kind of weird in Nashville to say this when
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: I'm going and doing it. And I actually don't really
- 1:13:47Speaker 2: care if I need a ticket, but more people might
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: stream if you're like, hey, it's a side event. And
- 1:13:51Speaker 2: you get some raffle tickets for streaming and making.
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: This game look good online. So that's my suggestion. Make
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: streaming a community event that people can join and do.
- 1:14:03Speaker 4: I will actually take it a step further. We see
- 1:14:06Speaker 4: this at many board game cons. But if you're in
- 1:14:11Speaker 4: the streaming area for the weekend, there should be a separate,
- 1:14:17Speaker 4: and it's much smaller, but a prize pool just for
- 1:14:19Speaker 4: those who stream.
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: Maybe they should give us a fluffer.
- 1:14:23Speaker 4: But if you have, like, if we're putting out a
- 1:14:25Speaker 4: deck or two, and there's like five, six, seven people there, again,
- 1:14:30Speaker 4: your odds are higher, but it's a deck or two,
- 1:14:32Speaker 4: because yes, you guys do.
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: We did forget to talk about one thing, and I
- 1:14:35Speaker 3: guess we can wrap it up. I want $ 50 bills.
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: $ 50.
- 1:14:39Speaker 4: I just want a fluffer.
- 1:14:42Speaker 3: I'm already going to be there for you. Drunk car
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: might be the best.
- 1:14:47Speaker 6: I mean, you get secondhand harm fluffing because I'm harmed.
- 1:14:52Speaker 3: Oh, so.
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 1:14:55Speaker 3: And you all got to take turns. Wait, wait, wait.
- 1:14:57Speaker 4: I guess. I mean, harm did three beats, so I
- 1:15:00Speaker 4: can't really take that. But I need a I need
- 1:15:02Speaker 4: you as my fluffer there. So, well, now the second
- 1:15:05Speaker 4: in line, the.
- 1:15:06Speaker 3: Three, you'll have to take turns anyways. We drafted like
- 1:15:09Speaker 3: four new people to the team recently. Just, you know,
- 1:15:13Speaker 3: pick one, pick one of the newbies and be like,
- 1:15:15Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's totally, it's totally, it's totally, yeah. we
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: said there was low expectations so we said there was
- 1:15:24Speaker 3: low expectations but there's a high.
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: End we really did not understand.
- 1:15:29Speaker 2: When we said low expectations low commitment level we meant
- 1:15:33Speaker 2: like not that you didn't have to do shit but
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: it was.
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: Very low one thing we did go back to your
- 1:15:42Speaker 3: drink there drunkard one thing we did forget to mention
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: um the exceptional prizing so they will be giving out
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: the global community decks for the raffles so i did
- 1:15:56Speaker 3: you mention it that's exciting.
- 1:15:57Speaker 4: No no no we did not yeah that's awesome i'm.
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: Excited and get some sweet flag bordered cards um none
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: from the u.s unless maybe there's a special treat inside.
- 1:16:09Speaker 4: That was for nationals, and we didn't have a national.
- 1:16:12Speaker 3: I understand. We're not nationals worthy. I understand, but now
- 1:16:16Speaker 3: it's KFC, and there will be a special treat, and
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: you'll get one that has the, I'm saying, maybe if
- 1:16:22Speaker 3: every now and again we went above and beyond, we
- 1:16:25Speaker 3: wouldn't be in this shithole, okay? I mean, that's the
- 1:16:29Speaker 3: truth for us, too, and yet we don't deliver. Yeah,
- 1:16:33Speaker 3: but we... There's a difference between the amount of money
- 1:16:37Speaker 3: we get for doing this and the amount of money
- 1:16:39Speaker 3: Gigi gets for doing what they do.
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:16:43Speaker 3: I mean, it's... I don't even know what the multiplication
- 1:16:48Speaker 3: factor at that point would be.
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: A lot.
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: But anyways, you can get... I know a lot of
- 1:16:55Speaker 3: people are after them. A lot of people liked, you know,
- 1:16:58Speaker 3: thought they were nifty. And they are nifty. I do
- 1:17:00Speaker 3: like the flags around the borders, so... Hopefully, I know
- 1:17:04Speaker 3: they're just for nationals, but hopefully we can maybe get
- 1:17:09Speaker 3: some for the United States for an event of some kind.
- 1:17:13Speaker 3: I know we don't have nationals, but I'm sure we
- 1:17:18Speaker 3: could figure something out. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. He says
- 1:17:23Speaker 3: there's U.S. ones and you just don't know how to read,
- 1:17:25Speaker 3: which I mean, we definitely don't know how to read here.
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: That's totally true.
- 1:17:31Speaker 3: We do... Do we really want to read?
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: No.
- 1:17:35Speaker 3: No, we want to go to bed now because most
- 1:17:38Speaker 3: of us got to go to work tomorrow. I got
- 1:17:40Speaker 3: to go to work.
- 1:17:42Speaker 2: Do we talk about the announcement of what the prizes
- 1:17:45Speaker 2: in Worlds are going to be?
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: Did I say that?
- 1:17:48Speaker 3: Oh, wait. You saw an announcement?
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: Where is it?
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: Well, it's a single Unchained 2022 deck for the winner.
- 1:17:57Speaker 3: Oh, Jesus Christ. I knew there was a bit. I
- 1:18:02Speaker 3: was like, there's a bit in this somewhere, right? I
- 1:18:05Speaker 3: know there's a bit. Not 2023.
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: 2022, which is exactly the same. Just different labeling from
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: the package. Very rare.
- 1:18:14Speaker 3: They say the article says this stuff, but this is
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: the most obnoxious thing to go through because you have
- 1:18:20Speaker 3: to click into each event and pop another page up
- 1:18:23Speaker 3: to then read all the tiny words. I don't know
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: at all where it says that there are US ones
- 1:18:28Speaker 3: in here.
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: Why are you just an AI reader for you? Why
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: are you reading anything yourself? Stop. Stop.
- 1:18:35Speaker 4: I actually will argue this.
- 1:18:37Speaker 3: I love how Draskor is trying to talk himself out
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: of a job. He's like, I don't even give a
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: shit anymore. Take my job. Anybody, please. No, really. Take
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: my job.
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: I don't care.
- 1:18:47Speaker 4: Under celebrating global community, it says these key forge vault masters,
- 1:18:51Speaker 4: 2026 decks showcase design elements inspired by the flags of
- 1:18:54Speaker 4: nations that hosted a vault tour or national championship throughout 2026.
- 1:18:58Speaker 4: So that, that I think is fairly clear. It even
- 1:19:02Speaker 4: is bolded.
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: Well, hosted a vault tour.
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: I mean, yes.
- 1:19:07Speaker 4: We hosted both tours, so we could technically be in one.
- 1:19:11Speaker 4: Which is why you're going to see the American flag there.
- 1:19:15Speaker 4: That's what it's about.
- 1:19:16Speaker 3: Finally, something X-Ray will get excited about. We don't want
- 1:19:22Speaker 3: him to get too excited, though.
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: Maybe X-Ray's the fluffer. I can't.
- 1:19:29Speaker 3: I can't anymore. I can't. I just... I also need
- 1:19:34Speaker 3: to be at a level of drunk with Draskor. I've
- 1:19:37Speaker 3: now come to realize otherwise. It's just like, what is...
- 1:19:40Speaker 3: What has this even become? Now you understand why JR
- 1:19:45Speaker 3: hates us, because he never gets drunk with us.
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: Oh.
- 1:19:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:19:50Speaker 3: I mean, and this year we got to call out,
- 1:19:52Speaker 3: because we did not.
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: I got to tell you, you guys missed such a.
- 1:19:56Speaker 2: When I was not on the National episode and you
- 1:19:59Speaker 2: didn't give me a hard time about that weird-ass bar
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: I drank.
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: With the freaking padding for gold. That weird drink.
- 1:20:08Speaker 4: It was fun.
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: You weren't here.
- 1:20:13Speaker 3: That's your story to tell. You gotta find us at
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: least one good bar.
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: That has something.
- 1:20:21Speaker 4: We've been in Roseville.
- 1:20:24Speaker 3: Yeah, for Roseville.
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: One new bar. Alright, I'm on it.
- 1:20:30Speaker 4: There's plenty of beverages.
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: We'll be fine.
- 1:20:33Speaker 3: Yes, there are, but there are also times where you
- 1:20:36Speaker 3: go out with Draskor and Sheep and every bar is
- 1:20:39Speaker 3: closed and you think you're going to get murdered by
- 1:20:40Speaker 3: the cocktail person. Alright, Wookie, you need to find the
- 1:20:43Speaker 3: end of this episode. I think we're all done. We're
- 1:20:47Speaker 3: good here.
- 1:20:47Speaker 4: Thank you. Goodbye.
- 1:20:49Speaker 3: Let's wrap it up there. We will see you all
- 1:20:51Speaker 3: probably tomorrow because I will release this episode at some
- 1:20:55Speaker 3: point next week. Or I'll get my ass in gear
- 1:20:57Speaker 3: because I also have to pack. And get it out
- 1:21:01Speaker 3: this weekend. Either way, we'll see all of you that
- 1:21:04Speaker 3: are coming at KFC. And we will see you all
- 1:21:09Speaker 3: next week.
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: Happy fluffing, everybody!
- 1:21:14Speaker 4: May the forge be with you.
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: Oh, no.
- 1:21:16Speaker 5: Oh, no.
- 1:21:17Speaker 4: Oh, no.
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: I love you.
