  Speaker 2: she has spells and isn't she flying in her picture?

  Speaker 2: So got it. The old mob treatment. I see, yeah, yep, yep.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: I don't understand your hate for her.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Lindaway was watching, but also Lindaway's blind, so that was
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: her happened.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Hold on, can he be watching if he's blind. Let's
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: talk about the philosophy behind that.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: Well, that's that's Linda Way's that's how she has plausible deniability.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: When the Fawness threw you a Kesha off the cliff.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: I can't wait till they release release another Yizmeir hero
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: that's worse than Akesha, and just you're like you, just
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: like I. All I hear now from now on is
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: like Cole wishing for the Good Old Day is just
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: shitty Akesha.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: I'll just throw that one off a cliff too.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: You can't throw all of them off a cliff. It's
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: not how any of this works.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: If I meme it, it becomes real.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: It's not true at all. I woke up this morning
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: to to a nice dm of being told I'm no
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: longer allowed to play at Kesha, who is now renamed
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Alisha by the way, because Siri said so, I don't
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: make up the rules. Siri does, guys, so you know,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: it just is what it is. But we got some
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: stuff to go over today, right, guys. Tumult Champs coming up. Yes,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I'm so glad all of you are as excited as
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: I am about the Tumult Champs. And what's sad is
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: you guys will probably have an opportunity to play in them.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: I will not.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: You will. You will With the amount of stores that
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: are around you that are hosting altered there's going to
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: be a Tumult Championship.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I know the one that I was about
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: to go to. Is like, we're switching our day and
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I'm like, you bastards, that's the one day I was
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: able to come. But we'll see what happens. I'll try something.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I gotta get my Akesha deck up and rolling.
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna make a deck that works because I
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: don't have any right I have. I don't even know
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: if I'll be able to make it to a mult
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: championship because they're all during all of my exam season.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: That's rough. I would definitely tell you take your exams,
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: but maybe skip one to go to that's a much
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: chimp school is not important. Nobody actually asks your GPA.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: They just don't know if you graduated.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: This is true.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: So actually that's not true. I was just asked for
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: my GPA not too long ago on a job in
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: refiew M. We remember, right, I'm well, you guys are
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: asking a lot I have. Actually, you know, it's weird.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: I got asked for references not too long ago. I
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: don't think i'd given references for a job in I
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: couldn't even tell you how long it's been. Normally you
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: just submit your resume and go from there.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Yep, yeah, I took them off my resume forever ago.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: I am looking at the middle of Lake Michigan where
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: you live.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: And I do not live in the middle of Lake Michigan, sir.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I do not see any Tumult champs posted yet. I
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: think there's actually only one in the US that it
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: is already posted. But we we know of the ones
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: that are being planned around Texas, and so we'll.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Let me see. I'm gonna I just board game barristers.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I hate that place.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Game Gamers Guild North Phoenix has one. Okay, so yeah
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: there there's more and more popping up Tempe. That's Gamer
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Gamers Guild Tempe.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, great, Gifted Games. I've been to Gifted Games.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: That's quite a that's quite a drive. Probably won't be
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: going there.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: We're uh, before we dive into all the ins and outs. Yeah,
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna do a little recap of what the Tumult
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Championship entails in case you don't already know.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: So for those of you who have been living under
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: a rock, which I'm gonna guess is not any of
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: you since you're listening to this show, but it is
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: a faction based event. Winning factions unlock. Winning factions unlock.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: When a player wins an event and the title of
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Tumult Champion, their deck faction games one point. By the
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: end of the Kurracomi Community event, the faction with the
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: most points will unlock a Kiracomi unbound common and rare
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: card in design in their faction.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: So the big the big thing here is who unlocks
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: the Karakomi from the ice is going to be who
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: wins the Tumult Championship. Action Wise, on the AMA, they
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: a little further into talk about the card. Everyone will
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: get copies of the card unlocked, even if you didn't
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: play in the event. Well, they will be designed based
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: on the winning faction. I guess I was thinking. I
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: was wondering if there would be a second place, but
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: based on this, it looks like it's a first or bust.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: So yeah, like, uh, just like the only card that's
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: not going to have like an offshoot, Like every card
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: has like a common and a rare and then the
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: faction shifted one.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let me do.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: A card that's not faction shifted.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: I know that it'll be the one card that doesn't
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: have uniques.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: There aren't uniques, but it should have a common.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: And a rare in the winning faction, and then the
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: second place faction gets the off faction rare.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Okay, that's what I thought. I thought there was the
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: second place, but I know the second place gets all factionery.
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: That's what the second place faction.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Nobody cares about that. All we care about is the
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: sweet sweet loot, right, what are you gonna get? So
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: everybody cares about this is why we're showing up. What
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: can you win? Well, you can win a sweet sweet playmat.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: It's actually a pretty dope play Matt. I do like
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: it looks cool, looks nice. Got the Altered Trial by Frost.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Top eight will walk away with a foil set of
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: adventure trial card. I'm sorry, try By FoST foil adventure cards.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: They're a little bit different, they're a little bit icier,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: and they're in foil. We all love foils. Everyone loves foils, right.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Foils are great, thank you, and they're even thicker than
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: the thick cards that one.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Two millimeters thick. Some thicky boys. And then with Altered,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: we also want to reward players choosing to lead their
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: favorite factions to the top to face the most powerful

• 9:15
  Speaker 2: player with each faction will receive an oversized Faction Scout

  Speaker 2: promo card. Each of these cards feature a new design

  Speaker 2: featuring the six alternate illustrations from the season two promo boosters.
• 9:28

• 9:30
  Speaker 2: the spiciest bruise to rival the strongest decks, so all
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: the scouts will It's an oversized card ninety by one

  Speaker 2: the size. I want a big chunker, right, Yeah, does
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: ever remember those?
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah? They had those at packs unplugged for the winners
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: for the constructed events and then the two v two events,
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: and it was based around the winners got a huge
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: card of the new set and they got to pick
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: whether to reveal it or not. It was a lot
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: of fun because we kept trolling people that weren't there
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: by like revealing small parts of it or showing a
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: picture super zoomed out. It was a lot of fun.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: So now what you're telling me to get a card
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: to reveal, we just have to go win stuff. We
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: don't have to be this, We don't have to be
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: the best podcast out there. Suckers thought we were all
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: gonna We're gonna go about this the other way. We're
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: gonna go win some things and reveal some stuff, right, Yep.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: That's how.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: Hacks East is right before set three is released. But
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: we do not know quite yet what is going to
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: be revealed there or what is what the events are
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: going to be. But you know, as soon as I
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: find out everyone here or in the Discord will know
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: about it as well.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Actually, what will happen for about three or four weeks,
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: Cole Robbie will leave like little tidbits, right, not enough
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: to actually reveal anything, but just to get your interest,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: and then he might reveal something eventually. That's how Coold
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: does stuff.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: I could do that right now. If you really want.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: It, well, have at it, sir, I'm ready.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: I know that in the boss deck at Packs East
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: there will be set three cards, and I know that
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: Cary of Casual Alterations has a new token card coming out,
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: and I believe it be at Packs East. Yeah, there's
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: just there's your little tidbits.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: What will be our cosplayers that will be running these
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: these uh boss x.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: I think it will just be low key, but not
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: not sure yet.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: It might.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: I think Packs East is a little bit smaller of
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: an event compared to PAX Unplugged when it.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Comes relatively size.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when it comes to TCGs, I think PAS is
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: more about the video games and Unplugged has more of
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: a TCG presence.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Really interesting, Okay, that's that's the vibe I get.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: At least the hiring process has been a little different,
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: not as uh, I don't know I don't know a
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: good way to put it, not as grand, I guess,
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: and then the herks that they normally do. Yeah, yeah,
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: it's like not through like an official like convention staff
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: in company, kind of run by a company that does
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: more of lower key side like event stuff and whatnot.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: So are they it is Altered going to be at
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I know this is weird, but I know a lot
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: of TCGs do do things at it. Adepticon hol On.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: No adepticon for Altered.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no Adepticon for Altered. I know that Star Wars
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Unlimited is going.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: To FFG, so that makes kind of makes sense since
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: they also probably are doing Legion and X Wing and Armata.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Yep, yep. So I think right now Altered is more
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: on the low key side of convention.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: I get it.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: So I know for sure Packs East, Justin and Loki
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: will be there, and then everything else is kind of
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: still up in the air. Okay, could probably bet on
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: gen Con, but it's not official yet.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: So man, you know they like to do like this
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: whole not official thing. It's kind of it kind of
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: drives me nuts.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: Man. If you if you ever seen behind the scenes
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: of convention planning, it's a it's.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: I know it's a nightmare right like, but like one
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: of those things, Like it's one of those things where
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: like you should have known like six months ago whether
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: you're going to be a gen con or not.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: No, yeah, maybe they like gen con spots are filled
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: right Like it's Asthma Day, so you know, mmmm, that's there.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: I always have to remember it's Asthma Day.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I think Justin mostly deals with the altered stuff,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: but I think it's somewhat still tied to whatever Asthma
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: Day does because it's kind of in the same area
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: in the convention and whatnot. But but after we went
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: over the quick recap, I realized I kind of put
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: these questions out of order.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I'll let you read the order.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm switching it right now because I realized that
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: we talked about what's at stake or the winning factions,
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: and not only is it that this card is going
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: to be unlocked for the faction, but it is also
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: going to transfer over into the story. And I know
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: I keep saying that I need to do a quick
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: lower intro or the Lord tidbit on an episode as
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: soon as possible. I put the Karakomi Uh story in
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: or after this because it's fitting. So the question is
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: who are you representing and what kind of deck are
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: you looking to bring? Now, I want I want to
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: say a lot of people are gonna just be like,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna bring whatever wins. I'm saying you you should
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: bring what faction you want to represent, because you gotta
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: remember it reflects in the story and it unlocks the card.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: And my my hypothesis is this event is gonna be
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: a little less about super meta competitive and is going
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: to be more about popular just because of you know,
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: it's a smaller yelevant. It's going to be spread out
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: through the country at local game stores. A lot of
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: playgroups at lgs's are not like your hyper competitive that
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: are playing on arena in BGA or traveling to like
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: gen Con for big events.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: You've clearly never met my playgroup at my local.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, they exist, but I'm just saying a wide percentage,
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: All right, So what I mean honestly right, I'd stick
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: with them. I would stick with my Lyra. I might
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: bring to Venka, but I mean it's probably it's going
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: to be Lyra. That's what I would bring.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: Mm hmm.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: Personally, So I'm likely going to bring Tasia since I've
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: been playing with that a little bit and it's been
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: doing fine, and you know, we're seeing some Tasia win
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: at tournaments and stuff. But you know, if the meta
• 18:06
  Speaker 5: shifts a little bit towards more of Sigi or a faunas,
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: I would definitely switch to what I think would be
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: more likely to wine.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Here's here's what I would tell a lot of people,
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: right playing the meta doesn't always go the way you think. Yeah,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: it's it's it's a fantastic idea. But if you ain't
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: crunching games right with what's meta, the chances of you
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: showing up with just a meta deck and doing well
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: probably ain't gonna go the way you want it to. Yeah,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: I know, especially if you've been crunching games with you know,
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: for like you for the Tasia you've been you've been rocky,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: you haven't. I mean, when's the last time you played artists?
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: Been a while? Probably like a month?
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: A month? Okay? So like, I mean, honestly, how comfortable
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: would you feel rocking and Ortis deck right now?
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: I would be fine.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm missing Bobby y Aga rares and some
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: other rares and then I'm also missing some rares that
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: you definitely need for a fondness which is hesitant to.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Cheap. Right, yeah, I mean you ain't. You could. You
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: could get those cards and a handful of days relatively inexpensively, right,
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: But like, you got to know the play styles, You
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: gotta know the matchups, you gotta know kind of what
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: you're doing, right, I don't know that I could rock
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: a Yizmeir deck the way I could rock a Fen deck, right, Yeah,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: even though Fenn might not be the most meta thing
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: in the world, still not bad meta, but I think
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: I would just do better with Fenn because that's that'
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: where I've rocked by most games.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: The thing, the thing you're forgetting is playing a CIGGI
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: deck is basically like just riding one of those Fisher
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: Price jeeps.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it just goes does itself.
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: You don't need to do much else, So.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Maybe you can probably switch back. Maybe I used a
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: bad example, right, No.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: No, you're you're your point is very very valid.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Point artists bad bad bad example, right, fair enough, I'll
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: give you that. But I I think the I think
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: the idea of of what I'm saying is still still applies.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I am glad to see Dexter coming over
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: to the Light and.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: The lightide side.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: As as for meta, I'd say, right now, any any
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: faction is possible. If I had to pick one that
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: is not doing very well in meta right m yeah, unfortunately,
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: it would be Axiom. But I think there is a
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: lot there that people just haven't taken to tournaments yet.
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: But otherwise you have one week where it's Siggy and
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: a faunas top, the next week you have Tajo winning.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: The week before that was Fenn was winning. So I
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: don't think there's necessarily a very clear meta winner when
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: it comes to a hero right now, as much so
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: as there was before the Robin hoodner Like, I was
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: listening to one of the other newer podcasts on the scene,
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: Hero's Guide to Sgartha, and they were kind of recapping
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: the Gamers Guild tournament that happened last year before the
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: Robin Hood Nerve, and even that a small United States
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: tournament of like fifty four people, the top four, three
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: of them were wau.
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: Yep and now he's nowhere to be found.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So I think I think the Meda is in
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: a really good place right now. It's very interesting when
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: people are like, oh, Siggy is the only one topping
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: the meta, or this person is not in the meta,
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: I think maybe they pulled up or watched one tournament
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: and saw Siggy win and that was it. Because I
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: think it's I think it varies pretty well right now.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: As for me, not a surprise. I am invested more
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: in the representation of my faction and winning for the glory,
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: and so I'll be playing Muna instead of fooling around
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: like I do very often. I think, as of now,
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: I am going to bring a very classic Tasia deck,
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: and right now I'm just kind of making some decisions
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: between different uniques and then different spells. I actually really
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: do like so and I think it's good. But it
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: might be the first one on my chopping block depending
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: and I might are well, I not that I might.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: I am rotating back to the spindle Muna Bastian. Yeah.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: I think there also might have been enough time that
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: I might throw in some hydras.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: Maybe you've gotten too far. You've got too far, you
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: think so. No, I honestly think anything right now is
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: it's It's pretty open. I don't think anything is like
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: too crazy, except unless you're an axiom player. Sorry, you
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: just you got the you got the bum end of
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: the stick. I don't really know what I tell you, Like
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: somebody you uh at alter control.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: I don't even think it's that. I think it's just
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: so complex that it's not super consistent.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: And no, no, no, I don't think it's not enough complex
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: it's not consistent. I just think, have you seen.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: The axiom cycle decks? If that's not complex, then I
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: don't even want to.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: See it is. But like it's it's like it's one
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: of those things, right. Every game has this where it's like, man,
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: if I get X and Y and Z an elemento
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: pe altogether, man, I just bust right. But it's but
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: it's like, yeah, how but card games are about consistency,
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: not yep, not about like the not about Christmas Land, right,
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: I talk about this In almost every card game there's
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: this Christmas Land where everybody's like, man, but if this happens,
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: all I need is these ten cards to fall perfectly
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: right in a roll. I just win the game. It's like, yeah, that,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: but how cow consistently can you do that? Well? I
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: mean yeah, you know twenty five percent of the time,
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: And it's like yeah, that's cool and all, but like
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: twenty five percent, that's that's not very good. Oh no,
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: it's fine, it's totally fine. You know. It's funny. We
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: got we got this in key Forge right now. It's
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: the new thing right now in Keyfge right now. Is
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: it's a card that basically it shuts down your opponent
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: and if you can find one and then find a
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: double that is that is house and ants, you basically
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: win the game because your opponent can never play cards again.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: The problem is, while you're doing all this stuff to
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: set up your combo, your opponent's already won the game
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: because they didn't care about your stupid combo. They're just like, yeah,
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go. So like you're still there and
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: they're like, yeah, I already already won, and then they
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: just kind of like leave, right, So it's like, but
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: hold on, I just need seven more turns.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah. What's what's really interesting is I'm kind of diving
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: into it now because I had a I had a
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: really shitty night at a wall this week. I had
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: a deck. It's a version of my Asia deck that
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: I've been working on and in practice in arena, I
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: was four and zero like, didn't lose a game, so
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, cool, maybe all co like, you know,
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: four in two if I'm lucky in a wall. No,
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: I started zero in three and then trupped and my
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: first matchup was against a Traced. To be fair, I
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: think I sent you guys the unique they had, didn't I.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think you do.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: I will grab it for the audience here in Discord.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: But now I'm looking at it, and they did not
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: place top sixteen at that event, so I'm just kind
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: of wondering, like I should go back through and figure
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: out it's, yeah, this thing is insane, and then love habit.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: They have the the Ororo Boros fashion, so I got
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: rid of it once, but that landmark basically lets you
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: cycle through your entire deck, so it came right back
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: not long after. Okay, But then I was also looking
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: at just seeing how Axiom is doing in general, and
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: there have been a couple placements this month and a
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: little last month where two of them are actually in
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: the no Unique Championship. In the let me go to
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: that one specifically, in the No Unique Championship, there was
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: a Traced and a Sierra that went four into so
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: eleventh and twelfth place in the top sixteen, so middle
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: of the pack. But I think there is a path
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: there for Axiom. It's just people are scared. It's not
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: an easy path, or it's just not not near strong
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: enough to make the top door.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Just too many steps, it's not fast enough. I need
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: some speed.
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's too much set up for right now.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: Yep, shout shout out to shout out to doom Bringer
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: and and Dorvian. We we need you guys to hop
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: in hop in some tournaments, make some placements represent for Axiom. Yeah,
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: everyone in the live audience, go ahead and let us
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: know what faction you're going to be representing. And this
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: is the the last plea I'll give to represent your
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: faction instead of just going for the win. You gotta
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: you gotta fight for your faction. I was very tempted
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: to do a song meme there, but I had to
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: stop myself.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: I was, I was, I was with you, I was,
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: I was right there, and I was waiting for it.
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: I was like, wait, what are we doing? A Beastie
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Boys representing?
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: But yeah, the next question is how do you best
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: prepare for this event? And Wookie has a routine.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you right now, don't follow the
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Wookies routine. Right. It's not a good routine. It is
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: a routine of pain, and but you gotta like it, right,
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: And if you do, it's great, it's great. Right, But
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: if you don't, like, don't do this, I don't purpose.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: So here's what I will. Here's the good wiki. Right, Okay,
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: so here's what Wookie would tell you. Right, get a
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: good night's rest, right, be prepared, wake up early, eat
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: up breakfast. Right, you know, nothing's worse than when and
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: this is a smaller event, right, So, like these probably
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: aren't going to be very high level. I shouldn't say
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: high level. What's the word I'm looking for. Like they're
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: not going to be long all day routes, right, Well,
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: they're just not gonna be long all day events, right,
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: Like once we get into bigger stuff, yeah, you're gonna
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: see some all day events. And you know that's when
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: you know, maybe maybe you want to, like I'm gonna
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: assume like your you know, FLGS is gonna have You're
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: gonna probably have some snacks there that you can get,
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: so maybe bring some cash to get snacks or you know,
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: be prepared to like, you know, have a little lunch break,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: but make sure you go on a full tummy. Bring
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: a water bottle or at least you know, some cash
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: for water or you know your your favorite drink. Stay hydrated.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: Don't do what the Wookie does, which is binge a
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: peck of cigarettes and energy drinks. That's that's so my
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: and this has worked for me. But if I go
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: out when I do large level KeyForge events, the Wookie
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: just drinks heavily. Right, And now my wife is staring
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: at me because I quit smoking probably two years ago.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: So now now it's now it's vaping and energy drinks,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: but it used to be smoke peck cigarettes and energy drinks. Right.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: So every time I try to get them through my
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: games as quick as possible because I want to get
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: outside and have a cigarette, right, because you never know.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: I mean there was one event where me and my opponent,
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: I was like, you want to go have a cigarette,
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: and they're like yeah, and we went outside and we started
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: our game five minutes late because of that, but we
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: both did. So it was fine.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: When you when you play Shredder in Key four, Yeah,
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: when you take your smoke break, do you just roll
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: up a car.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: You know about shredder.
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: I know about everything.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: Oh man, you've done.
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: Your vaper about it.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: On this podcast we.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Talked about Shredder. I mean we invented predder and made
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: the rules for Shredder. No, you don't. No, I've never
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: I don't think we've ever done that.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: I haven't smoked a card.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think we've ever done that with Shredder. Maybe,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: I mean there's always a card. There's a first time. Hey,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: there's the first time for everything. Maybe at Roseville this year,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: you never know.
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: Maybe you like keel the back off a card, and.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: I know where there's a will, there's a way and
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: we can figure it out.
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: You you brought up a good point. All of that
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: preparation is really good advice, really good thing. It was
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: mainly a joke because Wookie in the pre show joked
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: about taking a nice bubble bath.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: But I do like taking Okay, so here's when I go, Okay,
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'll give everybody my thing. So I I
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: like extraordinarily hot water. And whenever you go to a hotel,
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: and I like I like the sound of running water, right,
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: running like bath water, Like it's just it's very soothing.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know what it is, but I love it.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: So whenever I go to a hotel, I kind of like, Okay,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: so if you put a washcloth in the drain, right,
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: it will fill enough but by the time, but it
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: will never overflow because the washcloth is poorous enough that
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: when it needs to disperse water, it will disperse water.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: So you can have the water on as long as
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: you want and always have it running. And it's unlimited
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: hot water at a hotel. That's what that's so I
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: do like taking baths at hotels.
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: It must be nice to be able to fit in
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: a bathtub.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: Do you not fit in a bathtub?
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: No? Do you not know that I'm like seven to five?
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Oh no, I had no idea you were that tall.
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: I'm five tens You're not seven to five.
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: Everyone in Altar knows that I am by far the
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: tallest altered content. You are tall, and I am very
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: tall and massive. But your your water preparation and stuff
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: like that brought up a good point.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: You are I am waiting for this. I want to
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: hear how you're transitioning this go ahead?
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so, well, you were talking about how they're not,
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: you know, long multi day events, which is true, and
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: it made me realize it's probably good to call out.
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: I think most Tumult events are going to be nine
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: to sixteen players unless you already have an area that's
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: doing weekly organized play over that. So if it's sixteen players,
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: you're looking at five rounds of Swiss. Yeah, but these
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: games are best of one with a round time of
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: thirty minutes. So this is going to be just a
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: this beautiful event. It's not gonna be a huge commitment.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: Highly recommend if there's one anywhere near you, to drive
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: out and represent your faction. I'm very interested to see
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: how many get up to the thirty two to sixty
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: four or even one twenty eight. I mean, maybe Gamers
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: Guild Arizona, you know, is going to hit over the sixty.
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: It'll be it'll be good to see. But one thing
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: I will see a lower commitment than.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: Than a multi day event. Yep. One thing I will
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: tell you, though, for the love that of all that
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: is good in the world, please do the following. Wake
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: up at least an hour before you have to leave.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Go take a fucking shower. Get a good shower in right,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: use lots of soap, Okay, I'm a big guy. I
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: know all about lots of soap. Okay, and put on
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: deodorant please. I know for some of you this is like, well, no, duh,
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: I do that all the time. But I've been to
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: events where it gets rather ripe as the day continues. Now,
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: I am a bigger fella, right and as all of you,
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: some of you may have known, I'm a large guy.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: So I do the following. Not only do I take
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: a shower with lots of soap, I take my time.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: I also bring extra deodorant and a spray with me,
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: like an axe spray or a cologne. Don't gotta go crazy,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: but nobody wants to sit across from you and also
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: smell you.
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: Yes, I bring backpack and I put a stick of
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: deodorant in it, and I don't you like if it's
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: a I'm just driving. I don't usually bring my bottle
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: of cologne, but I definitely spirts myself before. But we
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: took such a long detour making this the bathpisode. The
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: question question actually is how do you prepare to prepare it?
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: You gotta you gotta be ready, right, and not only
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: you gotta be ready, not only in mind but in
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: body right, it is as dumb as it sounds. I've
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: been to some of these events. I've been to Larkana events,
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: I've been to key Forge events. I have been to
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: so many TCG tournaments, and you would everyone, I know,
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: we just had a personally, you think I'm crazy, But
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: there's gonna be one smelly person there, right, at least one,
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: and like the more.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Fortunately it happens.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: It happens in every card game. I don't know what
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: it is about card gamers, just bathe right, like you're
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: gonna play better if you feel more confident in yourself, right,
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: and nothing's worse. Like I literally at one point had
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: to like run back to the hotel because I had
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: forgotten my deodorant at Worlds because I'm like, I stink
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: and I don't like that. So I like stopped ran
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: back to the hotel, grab my deordorant because I just
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: didn't shove it in my bag shove, you know, slatthered
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: it on, sprayed some cologne, and went back to the event.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: You know, I did a little.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Ah.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: I hate to say this because I know Cole is
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: gonna kill me the old Mexican shower real quick, right,
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: I got a washcloth, and yep, got myself. You know,
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: I got myself right. But you will play better if
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: you if you feel better about who you are and
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: that like it's just as easy as brushing your teeth
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: and taking a shower, right.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: Amen. When I drove down to Houston, my AC broke
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: on the way down, and the first thing I did
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: when I walked into the stores, I was like, I
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: need to freshen up, and I just pulled out, let's
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: stick a geoor and just put it on right there.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: You got that sixty AC sixty Yeah, two windows and
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: sixty miles an hour.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: I'm actually taking my car in tomorrow to uh get
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: it fixed. Yay, listen to the episode. It makes me
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: zero money, but it'll make me feel better.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: But I mean, like, how do you prepare physically? Like
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: that's how you prepare physically mentally? Bring something you are
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: confident in, right, something you feel like you can confidently
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: do well in. Bring some snacks, right, you're tummy's gonna
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: rumble or be prepared to buy snacks, or you know,
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: have some water or some gatorade, some some drinks of
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: some sort, whatever you like. I'm I'm the you know,
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: I'm the Maverick Light one hundreds and energy drink person.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: Or I was like, and if that's your jam, that's
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: your jam. But be prepared, right because you you some
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: of you might be in for a long day, some
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: of you not so much, maybe some of you just
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: a couple hours. Either way, be prepared in that sense. Yeah.
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: So in the gameplay area, I will throw out that
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: if you're in the discord and you need help preparing
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: for an event and we just need to throw down
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: some lobbies, just let us know. You can always jump
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: into active games and I'm sure someone will wander in
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: there with you. Make sure you know you get your deck,
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: that you start doing reps on it if you need
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: help with like getting a card or two. If you're
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: in the local area, we can do our best. One
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: of the things that's going to be a little hard
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: is I think Beta too, which is the more more
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: open beta of the marketplace and Print on Demand. I
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: think it will be running the first week of April
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: or second week of April, but I don't think you
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: can guarantee that if you order cards for Print on
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: Demand that they will be shipped and received by you
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: on time.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: So it is nobody.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: Oh, I guess they. I guess they do.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know. If let's look, Yeah, that's where I
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: ordered all my physical and uh what do you call
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: it virtual? Did you digital cards from?
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: So?
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: I mean they were pretty quick. As long as you
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: follow their steps, you can get your stuff from relatively
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: quick time.
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it does not look like they have Trial by
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: Frost on there yet. I think they're just waiting to
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: open their market up. So if you're not in Texas,
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: I would say, just lean on you know, your community,
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: make sure be friendly, trade cards with each other, things
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: like that, and that should.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: And give me all of your Magpie holders.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that would require you to, uh to go out
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: to an event though.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah I already got one. I want to get them all.
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: You want to get all like three thousand unique Magping holders.
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: I kind of do. Like it's such a weird thing
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: because like in key Forgers, I think as a Maverick,
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: so like hops a house, I would I had I
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: had a few cards that I've collected all the Mavericks
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: that are available for it. Now, I'm like, man, could
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: I get all the Magpie horders? I don't know.
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: I think there's one or two that I've seen that
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: people would not part.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: With probably not probably.
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: Not very easily. You probably have to rob a bank.
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: Maybe not rob a bank, but maybe go a little crazier.
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: But we'll figure it out.
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: All right, Dexter, I realized that two of these questions
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: that I put are basically the same.
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: Question, the same thing.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: What what else are you thinking? You're the young, bright
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: mind that has to win Houston.
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: Just get reps in with the deck that you're planning
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: to use.
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: Make sure you know how to play it well BJA
• 44:55
  Speaker 5: is good, but also know how to play it in
• 44:57
  Speaker 5: person if you can play with yourself or find other
• 45:01
  Speaker 5: people to play with. Getting reps with it in person
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: is definitely different than board game arena. Having to actually
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: use the tokens, draw the cards, play the cards.
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: It's a different feel.
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: Make sure that you're not gonna mess up anything or
• 45:14
  Speaker 5: make rules mistakes is a thing to look out for.
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I'm actually I'll and I'll admit it. I'm
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: very bad at playing in person and I forget things
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: pretty easily, or just like, don't do my own yeah.
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: Because to take off ank or whatever. Just be careful
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: with all the tokens and everything.
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: Usually I forget the things that benefit me. But yeah, yeah,
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: that's a very very good call out. I'm also I'm
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: not really experienced in you know, in person TCG events.
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: As I said before, I was more of a E
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: Sports FPS type person, and I played a lot of
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: Rainbow six Siege like that, where there are differences between
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: land or online, but I think it's a lot bigger
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: of a difference it is from BGA to an imperson.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: There is a huge difference between in person and online
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: when it comes down to tcg's. Now the one thing
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: I'm going to tell everyone out there, I have tons
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: and tons of experience with this. If at any point
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: you feel uncomfortable with a ruling, or you are unclear
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: on a ruling, get a judge, don't don't hesitate, That's
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: what they're there for, right, Or if you feel like
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: somebody is maybe like kind I don't want to say
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: swindling you, but maybe not being as upfront about something
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: as you feel like they should be college judge, right,
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: sloopy sloopy play as I like to call it.
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: What what? So?
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: This is a long story. Basically, we had some accusations
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: of cheating in Key forche and it got crazy, and
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: it just this all could have been avoided if somebody
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: just called a judge, right, and it's it's it's literally
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: that simple, Like, don't be afraid to call a judge.
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: You're not being an asshole, You're not you know, You're
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: just you're making a clarification, right. There is absolutely nothing
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: wrong with trying to just make sure that the game
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: is going the way it should be. Now, also be
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: prepared to be told that something you thought is wrong, right.
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: You have to be willing to hear that side of
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: the token as well.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: But if you feel like somebody is cheating you, somebody
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: is swindling you, somebody is not being honest, somebody is
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: taking too much more time because these are time now,
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: i'd beat does BGA? Do you guys time your games
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: when you do like a wall and whatnot?
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, oh yeah, I'm I'm known as the time
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: guy now because it's going I harp on very frequently.
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: I wasn't one hundred percent sure because I know a
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: lot of like online games like there's no timer, right,
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: and you're gonna run into people that like they're like, okay,
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: I can't win outright, But if I just go to
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: time I feel like I have a good opportunity to
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: win the time rules. Make sure you're you know, keeping
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: up on that.
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying every time you feel like somebody is
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: going a little further than you'll know it when it happens, right,
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: That's the only thing I can tell you. You'll know it
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: when it's happening to you feel free to call a
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: judge because that's the only way stuff like that's going
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: to get resolved, and you're not going to be happy
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: with yourself. And you'll hear multiple people talk about it.
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: We've got multiple people in other communities that just take
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: their ever love and time play on a game and
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: it's like, make a decision.
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I will back that one as a judge.
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: If you are just calling for a judge for a
• 49:31
  Speaker 3: clarification or a rules dispute or something weird where you
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: like elbowed your draw pile, as long as you are
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: willing to explain to the judge and take down what
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: they're saying, and even if you disagree with them, which
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: is fine, staying nice. And if you disagree and you
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: think you're right, you just escalate it to a head judge,
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: which is your right, and almost all games where there's
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: a judge, it's when you start arguing or being rude
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: that it's going to cause a very big problem. Yeah,
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: aggressive and being a guy who is very passionate about time.
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: The quickest way I'll explain it is if you are
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: taking a long time, you are actively giving your opponent
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: a disadvantage by eating up their time. Every time I
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: give someone a warning for slow play is when I
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: get the dirtiest comments or looks.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: Yep. So just just know, listen, slow players don't want
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: to be told they're playing slow. Yeah, right, and some
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: you know, quote unquote slow players know they're doing it.
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: I don't think alterns that community. But I mean, all
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: you gotta do is go look at all the other
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: all the other communities. Everybody's got a slow player where
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: they're like, hey, I can win on I can win
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: on time breaker rules. Don't don't, don't don't don't, just don't.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: That's all I can say.
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I I'm looking right now. Because and Door and
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: the audience brought up a good point. I from what
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: I remember, I don't think Altered has timing rules on
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: turns yet, because the current tournament guidelines are like soft rules,
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: and I'm looking it up through it now, I will
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: say from experience with other games, and this is gonna
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: blow your mind. You are generally supposed to take in
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: action every fifteen seconds, yep, which is longer than you think. Well,
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: it is not as long as some people take and
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: it is vastly different on BGA compared to in person.
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: You cannot in a tournament take five minutes off of
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: your clock to take a turn. It's the easiest way
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: to get a judge called on you, or a judge
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: come over and say, hey, I need you to make
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: a move, things like that. But there are chess clocks
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: on BGA in every tournament. I think most of the
• 52:36
  Speaker 3: tournaments have standardized to a thirty minute round time, which
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: means each player has fifteen minutes on a clock and
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: they have about three to five minutes of overage depending
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: on when the game started.
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: So I absolutely hate the idea of chess clocks in
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: any game.
• 53:00
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: I I yes, I can see where you do. Because
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: you're a judge. It makes judging very to the point, right,
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: But like, there are decks that are just going to
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: take longer than others, right, It just This is a
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: This is a fact of reality. There's no way you
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: could just be like, all right, thirty minute play. You
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: both get fifteen minutes. This is how it's going to
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: go because there is sequencing involved and stuff of that
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: nature that you know there is gonna be some thought
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: that you got to put into it, right, you should?
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: You know, Again, as we said before, bring a deck
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: you are familiar with, so that you're not like, Okay,
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: what should I do? Hmm, you know, and you have
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: to wait twenty minutes because you know you don't know
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: what you're supposed to do.
• 53:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah. See, the thing is, I absolutely agree there are
• 53:57
  Speaker 3: some decks that take a little longer, but the decks
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: that are usually abusing the time are decks that are
• 54:10
  Speaker 3: looking to abuse the opponent in some way. Sure, and
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: also classic example a Kesha control. Right, there are most
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: players that eat up the entire clock, And I feel
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: like it's a mentality thing because I'm pretty sure it's freeloader.
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: Freeloader plays that deck because he likes to be annoying
• 54:35
  Speaker 3: and very frequently has more time left on his clock
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: than some of his opponents. So it's possible to play
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: those kind of decks and not be.
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's because like once you know it, you're like,
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: uh huh, you know what I mean Again, it goes
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: back to know what you're playing. If you know what
• 54:57
  Speaker 2: you're playing, we're easy, right, Like just is you know
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: what you want to target, you know what your weaknesses are,
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: you know what your your opponent's weaknesses are, and you're
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: gonna attempt to minimize your weaknesses and exploit your opponents.
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: Done and done? Where do we go next?
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: Cal We are going to tie in some lore by
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: it's to the Tumult champs. Are we having the It's
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: kind of long.
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: But this is a long one.
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: It's kind of compared to some of the news articles
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: that you've read.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: So all right, well, thanks to recent information, we have
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: been able to reassess the situation we are facing within store.
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: Oh goodness, store it I feel like I needed to
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: say that with that kind of like uh right. Even
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: though these findings should still be taken with caution, they
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: may provide us with new insights into the repeated assaults
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: of the did you pick one with all the big
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: words today? Hold ayadara No, this is the assault of
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: the Bella Senki. These attacks have been growing more frequent
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: and intense as we approach the kaiss Adara, and now
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: we may finally know why. Then, the granddaughter of the
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: previous shepherd of the Oraboros appears to have successfully conversed
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: with the so called snow Wraith. Her affinity with what
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: she calls the wind supposedly allows her to project her
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: voice to the entity's dwelling and to hear its words
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: with far great, far greater clarity than our previous scouts,
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: no longer merely as an echo resonating through the vast
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: snowy expanse, but as an actual exchange of intelligible speech.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: According to her, the creature is an oneiros o nyros
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: okay enough, fair enough, imprison in the heart of the Kaisadhara,
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: unable to manifest as an Adolin within reality for reasons
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: yet unknown. It claims the human was responsible for its confinement.
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: Seeking to harness its power, the entity commanded the altarer
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: to set it free, using both coaxing words and veiled threats.
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: The entity's name is said to be Koro Kami, a
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: primordial dragon embodying the concepts of rain and snow. It
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: seems likely that a continued presence. Its continued presence has
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: transferred this region into a perpetual frozen expanse, thereby creating
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: a somewhat stable oasis. The Belenseki appear to have become
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: its defecto jailers, benefiting from its imprisonment to thrive within
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: this biome ecosystem that has unwillingly helped create the captivity
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: raise several obvious questions. Who imprisoned here? For what purpose?
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: By what means? Is it truly an only one? Aros?
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, ea claims, well, will happen if it's freed?
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: What will become of it remains? What will become of
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: it if it remains in prisons? Already only your all?
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: O one, no all, yep, that's the word. Through the
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: int through their adulns have become scrutinizing this information. To them,
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: the very notion of one of their own being deprived
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: of freedom isn't an anthem ananthemum, Oh my goodness, you
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: really hate me today? An injustice that must be rectified.
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: I have no illusions they will soon pressure us, under
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: the guise of the Concord, to put an end to
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: this force imprisonment. Given the nature as manifested ideas. Preventing
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: them from expressing themselves in the world is in effect
• 59:04
  Speaker 2: a slow death. However, we must also consider the possibility
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: that its release could harm the species that have settled here,
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: species that the Belen Sanki seem to protect. I feel
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: as though I am caught between a hammer and an anvil.
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: On one hand, all life and sentience are sacred, as
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: stated by the Covenant's first law, and freeing the dragon
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: would almost certainly mean the outright destruction of the oasis.
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: On the other hand, there is the ideal of the
• 59:35
  Speaker 2: concord through which we have sworn to a the Onerni,
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: and is the case these two principles seem entirely opposed. Still,
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: if the Belen Senki's hostilities continue to escalate, no compromise
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: can be reached. I must, for the sake of the
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: expeditionary corpse, consider the liberation of the Kurakami as a
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: last resort. While this may be responsibility I must personally bear,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: it is not a decision I can make alone. The
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: repercussions will be immense, both for the native species and
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: this biome. For our dream bound allies. To resolve this
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: thorny issue. Perhaps it would be wise to consult the
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: faction representatives, restoring to a popular vote. Maybe the best
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: course of action log Book of Tomorrow, Singh, Grand Admiral
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: of the Expeditionary Corps thirty nine three nine three AC
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: March fifth.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: Nice good job. That brings the question. I don't know.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know if it's going to be a big
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: surprise that like action that wins is going to get
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 3: to decide if they free Karacomi or not. But what
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 3: do you guys think?
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 2: How would that be decided in a real world stance?
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I'm one like. I could see how
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 3: since on the website everything is tied to your if
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 3: you won an event and your faction one, or if
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 3: you attended an event in your faction one, maybe there
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 3: could be a vote. I don't think that's what's going
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: to happen, But maybe my question is what side are
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 3: you guys on? Set it free or leave it imprisoned?
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 4: Set it free? Chaos?
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: Why leave it there? It ain't hurt enough?
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: You let it?
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 4: There's another guy?
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: What another guy?
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 4: There's another dragon?
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 3: Thing?
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: How do you know there's another dragon? Who said there's
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: another dragon?
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 4: The Kurokami is like a dragon thing, right.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: Right, But like you're like, assuming there's two of them,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: where'd the other one come from?
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 4: No, it's just one. It's just one free.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 3: There's she long, so there'll be two dragons.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then and then what what if it's just
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: like you know what, suckers and just destroys the whole world.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 4: Then we could see having to fight it off.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 3: Yes, Set six is the fight of the dragons. I
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: am forever in favor of set it free, but do
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 3: not harm any Belasenki in the process.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: That's a possibility.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously the best route would be to figure out
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 3: why the hell it's locked away and if the crimes
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: fit the punishment.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: But I mean, I do believe the Beetles set it best.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: The Beetles let it be.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: We we've come this far, this long, and nothing's bad happened.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: Let it let it be, send it free. I mean
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: they also did say live and let die, So I
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe the Beatles don't know, don't have any
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: sort of wisdomness to give here.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're the Beatles.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 2: They suck they knew everything, all right.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: That is the Lord tidbit for this week.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: Yay. I feel like Cole chooses these just to be like, oh,
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: how could I punish Wookie this week?
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 4: I can read them if you all want. I like reading.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: Okay, you like reading? You you literally.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: Said before this you hate reading.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 4: I hate reading, but I like reading, like little lower articles.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 4: Those are cool. I like out loud, but I like reading.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: You got everything.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 4: I say is contradictory.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: Okay, you've got next week? My man? All right, I
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: can't wait.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 3: We didn't We didn't collect any Patreon questions in time.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: No boy, Draconis was probably busy. If you hurry and
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 3: enter one into the live audience, we can probably get
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 3: to it. Uh So I will in that time divert
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 3: to the events section. So I have kind of AI
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: on two Tumult events in Texas, one of them being
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 3: at common Ground Games in Dallas. I think the date
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 3: is pretty much locked in as April eleventh or twelfth,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 3: which is a Friday or Saturday, and then down in Houston,
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 3: friends of the cast egis agis any other way to
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: pronounce it, we'll be having one. What did it seem
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: like the tw twenty sixth was more likely Texter.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 4: Or what was it the twenty ninth, twenty ninth.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 3: Of April, so there will be the one you were
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 3: in the twenty sixth, twenty sixth. Okay, so I will
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 3: of course put them on the Altered Corner website as
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 3: soon as we get official information on them altered Corner
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: dot com. And if I hear about any others, I
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 3: will try to throw them in the discord if I
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 3: know that they relate to someone in the community, and
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 3: then any others in Texas, I will make sure everyone
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 3: knows about. For other events, there is a new event
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: on the streets called the No Uniques Championship that will
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: be a weekly event. So if you are a person
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: that is against uniques and think that they ruined competitive, well,
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 3: there you go. There's your event and me, yeah, I
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: will see you guys at Packs East. There will be
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 3: more information about that on a later episode when I
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 3: know what events we will be running. All right, questions,
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 3: let's see to another episode of my question. But make
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 3: sure it's not corrupted. Yes, I'm actually working on If
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 3: I can fix it.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know because it would be a lot to
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: fix it, and all of my efforts went in vain.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: So I mean, you can definitely listen to it over
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: on Patreon. I believe you uploaded it there right, not yet.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 3: I'm seeing, I'm seeing what I can, how I can
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 3: fix it.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: I know I used all of my tricks and my wizardry,
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: and I was not able to get it there. And
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: I was just it's like it's one of those things
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: where you sit there you're like, I don't even know
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: how this happened, Like how did this happen? But once
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: we get it up, you can still listen to it,
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: it just won't be on the main feed. Can you
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: guys share your alternate gameplay modes as we want to
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 2: try some over here in Utah to provide feedbacks and
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: various other ways to play. I think Cole you kind
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: of went through that, yeah.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 4: On a cast before well episode.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 3: I can tell you the exact.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: Two episodes ago.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a Patreon question from Draconis that we
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 3: recorded on February twenty eighth, so it should be the
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: episode that was released on or yeah, March fourth or
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 3: fifth around there. But I do have a Google document
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 3: for my Convoy mode. I haven't tested it yet. I
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 3: was thinking about it earlier today that I want to
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 3: get a group together to test it. Maybe on exaltered
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: or exalts table. So if you're interested in doing that,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 3: I shared the document so people can view it if
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: you create a deck, if you run into any issues
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 3: or anything, let me know. I personally think it's a
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: way that you can make a two faction deck that
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: fits more so in the theme of Altered and the
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: spirit of Altered deck building. But let me know, let
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: me know your thoughts, how it goes for you. And yeah,
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 3: we'll see you guys at packs and I'll share more
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 3: information at a later date. Exalts table is a website
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 3: and Exaltered is a fan made client. They are both free, free, free.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 3: There's also a tabletop simulator, but I'm a tabletop simulator.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: Sorry I threw up a little bit. Yeah, so make
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: sure you guys check out all of those what do
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: we got? We got? What do we got? For online
• 1:09:22

• 1:09:54

• 1:09:59

• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: get to be do you hear Cole's got big high hopes.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: Cole says he wants us in the top forty of
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: Altered Creators.

  Speaker 3: That's that's that's for you, that's for I'm I'm like

• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: can get a spoiler.
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, share, Share the podcast with anyone you think would
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 3: enjoy it. I know our feed is kind of interesting
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 3: being tied to Arcan's Corner, but it benefits in a
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: lot of ways. And honestly, if you go to Spotify
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 3: and you type in Altered TCG, you will see a
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 3: ton of our episodes when you search that for podcasts,
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 3: so it's pretty easy to find us or comment.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: Always look for that little Altered Corner emblem. All those
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 2: are Altered Cornered episodes. The reason where it's still kind
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: of linked that I'm lazy. I've put so much work
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: into AC to get it all set up, and it's
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 2: like on so many different platforms. I didn't want to
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: do that all over again for a whole nother thing.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 2: You're talking about setting up a lot of different servers.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to, So I was like, you know what,
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 2: and I didn't know where this was going to go. Honestly,
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: you know, at the time, it's like, oh, maybe it's
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: a thing. And then maybe it also is like how
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: when I tried to do Flesh and Blood and like
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 2: that never became really much of anything. So you know,
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: maybe it was like a one week thing. Maybe it
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 2: was a few week thing. Hey, this turned into I
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 2: don't even know how many episodes around now, it's got
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 2: to be a handful mid twenties somewhere.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 3: Now, now that the other podcasts died, I feel like
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 3: word number one and we just have to make.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 2: Sure let us know about all other podcasts, because I'm
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 2: looking for other altered podcasts to listen to. I feel
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 2: like listening to my own defeats the purpose because I
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: was I was there.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 3: And I mentioned one earlier in the episode, but shout
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 3: out to I will say ChIL. I think that's how
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 3: you guys pronounce it, right, Chile, Chile, That's how I
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 3: would say the word, but I'm pretty sure it's Chili.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 3: Check out a Hero's Guide, Twist Gartha. They are going
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 3: to be better than us, so we just have to
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: keep our momentum and stay number one.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: Wow, they're going to be better than us, no faith.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 3: Well, I like being the bad boys. What can I say?
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: You like? You know, you're one of those pop punk
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: kids that was like, I'm gonna fight fight the system. Man, yep,
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: you're still fighting to this day.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I used to. I used to listen to the
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 3: main Deck one too fleeting Thoughts, and I remember their
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 3: last episode. They're like, oh, we're doing this more frequently,
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 3: and now it's been over a month.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I found them. I found a handful of them,
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 2: and it's just like, man, they haven't released anything since
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 2: beginning of February, and I was like, I can't remember
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: who's all doing what. It doesn't seem like there's many
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: podcasts about it, which is fine, but there's not a
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 2: ton of like video content out there either, which is
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 2: kind of crazy. I mean, it's it's there, but it's
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 2: like a handful of people.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're working on it, getting more engagement to boost
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 3: our algorithm. Tell us what content that you want to
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 3: see so that I can be inspired to finally do it.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 2: But I still want to do the series that you
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 2: and I talked about beginning to end, uh.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 3: The make a pinups of altered calendar.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 2: Listen, we already have the Arcons Corner, the Men of
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 2: Arcons Corner Calendar, which is actually just somebody photoshopped our
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: faces over with some much better bodies and then we
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: sold those. Yeah well anyway, yeah.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, podcast points. We're all about community sharing, but Fleeting
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 3: thoughts is no longer our best friend. Heroes Guide to us, Gartha.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: You're our new best friend, new best friends. So all right,
