  Speaker 3: Okay, do you uh we've all seen the office right.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, of course.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: It's it's just like when Pam lets Michael get his
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: first intro out before actually connecting him because the second
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: or third one is better than the first. So it's
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: just like that.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: It's just just like that. But we do have a
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: little bit to go over. Packs East was this weekend.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: We did have a couple of people there. One one
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: is included, one is not. I feel like you're.
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: I was not there.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Well, you were there, but you weren't there.
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: Or altered you were, And I was not there from
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: nine thirty to nine thirty.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: You weren't there. What were you there for? Universal University's
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: universus got it with him all the time? Got it? Well, yes,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: we had one person who was there for the right game,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Cole I.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: I was there and as I was saying in the recording,
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: that doesn't.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Exist, doesn't exist, Well, it exists, but not in good one. I.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I spent a ton of time at the booth,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: not so much anything else. I didn't really get to see.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Two was my little Latin mamasita there.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: I am continuing on to say that I went in
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: every day about nine to nine thirty am, and then
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: usually we stuck around for a long time nine thirty ten,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: maybe after ten some nights, and I got off at
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: six thirty Sunday. I didn't even technically work at the booth,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: but I was there from about nine am until I
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: think we got out of there a little after seven
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: because we did the booth breakdown. I did a charity
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: stream on an altered corner on Sunday. Sure did still
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: very busy from like twelve thirty until four on some
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: day doing that.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I got to pop in and look look in every
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: so often, and it looked like you guys were doing
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: some card reveals at the time I had come in
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: mm hmm.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Mostly just art though, right.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think there's a lot of time. I
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: think the only one Silas had text. I think that
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: was about it.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Well, there were the uniques that were revealed that do
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: have text, and then there were there uniques the uniques
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: revealed that don't have text, and those were foil proofs,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: that's the word. Those were pretty cool. I believe Dredger
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: joe't Dredger Drone was revealed on the stream, and then
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Silas was shown more and technically there were more cards
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: that could have been on the stream, but I don't
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: know if people caught them. We also revealed Simmerg the Rare,
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: and then yeah, all of Silas. I can't believe we
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: didn't show all of the Hunger. We should have done that,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: but we didn't.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Okay, we shouldn't showed off.
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: The one landmark for each faction, right or was that
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: at other times during backs East.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Uh so the landmarks were part of the prizes for
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: all of the tournaments.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: There was huge did you take did you steal the
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Lyra one for me?
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: I did not whine. I'm I'm pretty sure all of
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: the marbles won basically every Lyra one. Yeah, yeah, all
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: of the mad les uh friend of the cast, don't
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: know if they listened to the cast, but also super
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: nice in person. And if you hear that I have
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: a slight lisp, it's because my mouth is kind of
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: messed up just from the travel and different.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: How many infections did you come back with? We forgot
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: to ask that.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Uh? None this time. I think I'm pretty good. No,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: no infections, no.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Concret that's like two for two, I know.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: At least for universes.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: The booth next to us, somebody tested positive for COVID.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Oh no, you can't catch it through the internet, can you?
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: I don't think so?
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Okay, good.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: So the the tournaments at this one were a little
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: more relax than packed some plugged. There was the the
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Booster Draft, which was just pretty cool, and then there
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: was the Standard. The the way that it was organized
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: wasn't quite the same as packs Unplugged, it was a
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: different company that ran it, so I don't have as
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: good of information.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: About did Equinox run it last time?
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Well, technically Equinox never is the one that like officially
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: runs it. Yeah, hires for it. Justin and Loki were
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: both there, but they kind of run their things, and
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: then the staffing and the light to play and the
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: judges are hired by a different company.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: So what company is doing it?
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: So for a lot of the events I've worked, uh,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: it has been ACES, which was formerly Chris part of
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Cask Cascade Games basically turned into just running the judge
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: program for Star Wars Unlimited.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they used to run Altered. They got they got
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: shown the door after one of the judges made a
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: really weird call came. I think his name was Guy.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: What did I say?
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: He said, altered?
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no yeah, key for it. Yeah. After Guy,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I think his name was Guy something or other. I
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: can't remember. I haven't seen him since. They kind of
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: got shown the door. That was the cheetah metes call okay,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: cool cool or he said that if you kill it,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: everything gets archived. But that's a long that's that's another
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: story for another day. After he made that call they
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: switched companies.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: Interesting. Yeah, Chris has his own company now called ACES.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: It's by far the best company I've worked with for
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: this kind of stuff. I've worked with one other for
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: gen Con last year, and then this year was by ESA,
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: which is a little bit smaller of a team, but
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: they're a local team to Massachusetts, so it unplugged. To
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: break it down quickly, it was just Simon and I
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: were like the judges, and we were in charge of
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: basically every event. This one was a little more rotating around.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: I think Simon tried to keep track of the heroes
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: and certain events, but I don't think we ended up
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: with as good of an idea for packs East. But
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: just know that all of the marbles won. I think
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: at least three oversized cards from different events. And the
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: really cool event to see was the starter deck tournaments.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: And what would happen is we had to learn to
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: play area and really like sixty percent of the people
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: would come and learn the game and then go buy
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: a starter deck, which got you an entry into the
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: starter Deck tournament, and then they would go play in
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: the tournament, which was really cool to see. It was
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: cool and then also kind of funny at the same
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: time because there were multiple times where people were reading
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: like the instructions provided in the starter deck right before
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: the tournament round started. But it was really cool, but
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: the oversized cards. One was given away for each first
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: place of each event. I think there was a new
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: person or two that won a card, but then there
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: were also some sharks going and buying starter decks.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: I was just about to ask that how many experienced
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: players were there that just went on Starter X to
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: win the cards.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was maybe sixty forty from what I can
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: kind of think of, but there were a lot of
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: players who had just barely learned the game and went
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: and jumped into the.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: It's kind of a bummer though, you know what I mean,
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: Like if you're just learning the game and you're entering
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: into a tournament, a starter dec tournament, and like you're
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: jumping in with all these experienced players who like know
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: the starter decks and like, and they win the card
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: even though you're I mean, it was a tournament obviously
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: designed for new players, right.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so there were there were there were people
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: who were like, I don't want to enter that because
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: I'm not a new player. But if you were an
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: experienced player, and there was.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Also people out there who were like, I need them
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: big cards.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, but they all bought new starter decks, and
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: the starter decks sold out middle of the day Saturday,
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: and the LGS that was partnered with the booth had
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: to go bring more in from their warehouse or something,
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: and then I think they sold out again on Sunday,
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: So that part.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Is always good to see sells always good, that's what
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: you want.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: We had a handful of players that learned the game
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: and just kept coming back over and over and over
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: to learn more. And then uh Draconis mentions Loki Knox Knights,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: which is always kind of a hard one for us
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: to do because by the time everything winds down and
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: we're cleaning up events, everyone's tired. Well, I think a
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: couple games that least fired off what it is a
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: long time ago. It started with Loki and Simon. Do
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: I still have the document? I have it somewhat.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: You know what you know what Altered needs?
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: What's that.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: You know? Well, I mean you know of it. Dexter
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: as we have the Jazcore experience.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: Yep, yep.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: In key Forge, we need the Wookie experience. I'm gonna
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: have to show you boys how to party, how we
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: do it up here in wiscans And yeah, yeah, not
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: for you. Call. You can sip on a club soda
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: or whatever it is you drink.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: Club soda.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Sounds nice there you go.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Maybe with some like raspberry pure or something.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Hey, whatever, it's up to you, man, do your drink.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: You know, my club soda is going to have vodka
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: in it.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: But yeah, no, yeah, I guess we're talking about the
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: water crackers.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: So I'm sorry, what what water wafer crackers? What is
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: a water wafer cracker? You see, I can find it.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: I used to eat them all the time.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: But this is an actual food are you talking about? Yeah,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: there wasn't there's one. There was one in Puerto Rico.
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: Cold club soda.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Oh I thought they're club crackers.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: No club.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: I thought that was some sort of slight like. Oh yeah,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: that's what you call a vodka and club soda. It's
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: called a water wafer. Like, excuse me.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: You're you're up to something, you know, I thought you
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: were talking about the body of Christ, you know, the
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: little wafers.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what they call those or where
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: they get them.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know I get them.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Nevermind, No, that's not where they get them. Call number one,
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: not number two. I'm sure they order them from somewhere
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: right like.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Or something.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: Oh Jesus, you know, I've totally missed the food section
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: every time I've gone into Holly Lobby. It's just got
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: wine in the body of christ Wafers.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: I if I can find the document, I'll give you
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: an example. I did this the other day too, and
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: now I've forgotten where I put it. But basically it
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: started with Loki and Simon and they had a list
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: of benefit and man, I wish I remember what we
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: called it. It was like benefits versus downsides, basically.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Risk versus reward kind of.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so you could get like an augment card, I
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: guess with the news Yeah, with the new set. Augment
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: is really a really good word to use. But it
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: would say like, you don't have a limit to how
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: many cards you can have in your reserve during this afternoon,
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: but then you would pull Ah. I found it. So
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: after they had come up with a bunch of cards,
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: they invited me into the document and I created some
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: with them as well. So bonus cards versus penalty cards,
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: and let's see, I'll give you one of the cards
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: that I made. What happened is we made these cards
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: and then we tied them to a meme, and I
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: will share the meme in the live chat with that
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: we used to template. So the first one I made
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: for a bonus card is mine, which is called once
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: per game you may steal an opponent's card at random
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: from their hand, and that's the meme. It's the all
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: your base belonged to us. And then one of the
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: penalty cards that I made is called no More counting
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: and it's every time you are heard counting out loud,
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: you must discard your hand and draw one less back.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: And what meme did I pick for this? Uh? I
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: actually don't know.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Man, we are still not cool enough. I'm finding this. Yeah,
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: where to find whispers from the mains previous Cole Robbie
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: gets a card. You want to know where a click
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: where it leads to when you click on Cole Robbie,
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Cole Robbie's Cole Robbie's YouTube.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: Third Corner doesn't have a YouTube.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: We could, yeah, but your YouTube channel is there? Yeah,
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: that's where I've been listening to the podcast whenever we're
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: not around.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: That's not that's not the main AC feed. But you know, again,
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: we're not in the top sixty nine yet, so you know,
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: let's keep pushing, gentlemen. We got to get into the top. Clearly,
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: we have to do something that is so heinous that
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Equinox can't not not see us.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know about heinous.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: No heinous.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: Oh gosh, I'm glad that I have a separate brand
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: from you guys, so for a reason.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: Nope, you're on with us. I've already got the cardboard
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: cutout Cole Robbie on its way, so no matter what
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: we do, you're there.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: I already have people impersonating me. Please don't add to it.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Well, this isn't someone impersonating you, it's you in cardboard form.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: Anyways, Loki Knox Knights are using those cards to make
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: a weird deck, and you just play them. Draconis seems
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: to have been able to play one. I've actually still
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: never played, which is funny. And then the other thing
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: was Boss Battles. Most people know Boss Battles by now.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: We also did two live on the stream. One was
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: Loki versus Lua and the other was Loki versus Blue.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: I think Loki lost both of those. It's Blue Blue
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: Blue ok TV. You know Blue Oak TV on YouTube?
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Subscribe Nope, but I'm gonna go look it up now.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I stayed in an airbnb with Simon Blue
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: and Andrew. Andrew was the one asking earlier if it
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: was going to be in podcast for him and also
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: the season two ACE champion. So if you actually go
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: to Altered Coordinator dot com and you go to the tournaments,
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: you'll see Andrew right there with his deck and everything.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: Super nice guy, super sweet. I am sure we traumatized
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: him the whole weekend.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: So probably not your team mate, your team Yeah, maybe
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: you've never you know, you call yourself a bad boy.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: I don't even know if I could give you a
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: bad boy.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: But those were the events, and then there were different
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: review peppered in there. You want more boss battle details, dexter,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: what do you mean by that?
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Like all the prizing and what the what the hero
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: did in the boss battle is the same one they
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: used last time?
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's still low Ki is the boss. So okay,
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: they're working on a Swarkie boss and a Moon Boss
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: I think, but tho Okay, those are not complete yet.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: I've seen previews of the art and they are great.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: I don't know anything about the abilities the Boss. I
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: probably have it in my phone, so I'll continue talking
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: while I tell you what the Boss rewards are specifically,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: but side events we already kind of talked out. We also,
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: at the end of the night, for people that were
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: still around, I think two or two nights maybe, we
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: did a cube draft from Justin's cube. So that was
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: a lot of fun. The first night I made an
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: r ROC deck, and then the next night they told
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: me I can't always draft ar ROC during drafts, so
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: I did a funest. But then during one of the drafts, uh,
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: I guess I can say it because I gave away
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: one of the cards and Doombringer has it. But I
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: played the Whispers from the Maze pre release in French
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: with Cary since Carrie you okay? Ever there bless you?
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: I think, yeah, that was that was rough. That was
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: a weird sneeze. Yeah, it was like a sneeze and
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: like everything came out and I'm just like, oh, this
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: is not good. Allergies, man, it is it is. Texas
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: has probably been in the spring for a little while.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Wisconsin is just experiencing spring and today all of the
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: village and like everyone decided today it was a good
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: day to mother grass.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: So my allergies are off the off the charts, off
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: the chain is one word for it, but man like
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: at least. And it's lopsided too, so like my right
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: eye is watering like crazy and my right nostrils clogged.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: This is just this is bananas. It's all I know.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: But continue.
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: When I got my nose fixed and it hurt to breathe,
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I don't like breathing anymore.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, breathing sucks now, Yeah, yeah, No, It's just this
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: has been it's been a rough few days for me here.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: I actually just started this morning. But it's, uh, it's been.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: I feel like I've been beaten down a little bit.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So back on track.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, how is it playing in French?
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: So? Yeah, we've ki the actual token lady who's made.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: If you've seen some of the custom brass bugs or
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: moth tokens, the new Loki, well it's not Loki. It's
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: an OSK token recruit that was shown on stream. A
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: lot of the stained glass stuff. We've been trying to
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: learn French, so we did the pre release in French
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: because the pre release kits are new for next set,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: and gave our feedback on it. She is way further
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: along than me and could read basically everything, but it
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: was really good. I tried to do the pre release
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: exactly how the paper said. I think it says like
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: twenty characters or something like that, five to eight spells
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: in zero to three permanents or something. Yeah, I have
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: notoriously bad luck. So I was not even able to
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: stick to that, and I pulled zero uniques.
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: It was a draft. Yeah that's what are just got
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: four packs? Okay, No, I thought pre release kit was sealed.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: You can do both. I well, yes, it's sealed.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: You had seven sealed packs.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Right, they're there. They're the same thing.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: To me, the draft and sealed are not the same.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: One of the one of them. You open seven and
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: play them.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: It was six packs each, I think. Really the thing
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: to know is it was like a test box and
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: they were also mixed up, so nobody should have as
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: horrible luck as me. Kari did get a couple uniques.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: I just got zero. So the new meme is that
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: I am no longer allowed to have uniques because of
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: my crimes and any pack I touch no longer has
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: a unique in it, so.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Just like Magic poof Disappears yep.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Uh. Those were all the special side events what I
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: had the most fun doing. Always good to see the
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: team talk to Justin and Loki. They are of course
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: passionate about the game and where it's heading and talk
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: and discuss a lot of stuff. And then just seeing
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: people really connect with the game. I think I have
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: basically never had a person that I've given a demo
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: to would be like, uh, it's not really for me,
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: or not connect with the game. The hardest person I've
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: ever caught the game that had like the most questions
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: and went the most in depth I think is still
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: like a super passionate player to this day. So we had,
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: like I said, three to six people that learned it
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: one day and then came to the booth every single
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: day and joined in drafts or events or just sat
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: down so they could try a different deck than the
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: first one they tried. Nice, and it's always great to
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: see the people that come out to Altered events. There's
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: usually a handful of people that are there the whole weekend,
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: one of them being Draconis, and we got to make
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: fun of Wookie a lot.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: I love being made full.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I had to go. I had to go back
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: home for Mother's Day, Wamp Wamp. But I'm gonna I'm
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: gonna have to tell Wookie to stop giving Draconis a
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: hard time because he's probably one of the sweetest humans
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: in person ever.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: Nobody ever said that Draconas wasn't a nice person. It's
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: got a lot of questions, and I don't understand why
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: he's got so many. That's all.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: That's what the That's what the question post is for.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: A lot of questions.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: Last question you have, Oh, if drama, I'll tell I'll
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: tell a really funny story that's kind of outside of
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: packs but related to being at the event. My favorite
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: WFM card. You know, it's really hard when people ask
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: me these things because I gotta remember what I can
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: say and what I can't ye.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Say. What do you feel like?
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: I think out of the cards that were shown and revealed,
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: I think my favorite is probably La Feme Farm.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: That's the moona artifact landmark thingy.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, how.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Does it get counters again? And then how to use
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: what happens when you spin the counters.
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so at noon you gain one food counter per
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: character you control, you spend two of the food counters
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: to resupply.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah I like that.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the the undergrowth is also interesting, but that was
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: revealed today. I really really like a lot of what
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: this set is bringing, and seeing some of the uniques
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: was really cool. Data Lists was revealed today, not at
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: Packs and suck it everyone who didn't believe it was.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: I also want to say I did not know it
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: was Lyra before saying it was absolutely Lira, So.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: It was Indeed, you kind of did.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: I didn't know. I didn't know data Lists before I
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: said that, he knew it was data List.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: It has well I'm saying options.
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: I didn't know officially is what I'm saying. Like from
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: seeing the card, sure, yeah it's it's the pink Beard. Yes,
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: that is.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: That is weird and that you know, process of Elimination
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: and every single other faction has a hero already and
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: Lyra doesn't.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: Yep. Indeed, so before I tell the the unique art
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: for the junior Chef and that whole triptick is also
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: super fucking cool.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: They revealed a lot of the trip dicks.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: Right, we've seen most of the ismir one. We've seen
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: the entire Bravos one. Uh, none of the Lyra, none
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: of the Moona, most of the odditest one. I think
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: that's it, so not okay. Yeah, but before I tell
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: the funny story, Felix, is there any stand out non
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: univers's moments you had at Facts?
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: So there was a chokobo walking around that you could
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: get sleeves for from edge of the gathering or in arena,
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: and we saw it from afar. It's like, oh cool,
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: there's a chokko but walking around. And then on the
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: fourth day we learned, oh, if you find it, you
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: can get sleeves. I'm like, great, now I gotta go
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: find it on the very last day, so we started
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: really walking around everywhere. We couldn't find it. So we
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: just went straight to Magice the gathering and told them, well,
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: we've been demoing, we have been able to find it,
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: and they just gave us the codes.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: That's awesome. Yeah, exhibitors usually help out exhibitors. We did
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: a trade with the Pokemon booth. They gave us a
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: bunch of useless demo decks and we gave them promos
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: and stuff. Uh, they gave us pins. The pins were
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: super cool, so they want to.
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: I'd like, I'd love to see them and altered as well.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, where I've we've all been pushing on them for more,
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: more merch. There's stuff that is wanted, just not produced yet.
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: And the demo deck was only useless to me because
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: Felix already gave me one.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: So tims would be pretty cool to like support, your support,
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: your your house, your favorite house.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah we did. We did have buttons at the booth
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: for anyone that demo, just little trial by Frost buttons.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: But yeah, we've talked about pins and all sorts of
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: stuff a lot. So the drama, I don't really think
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: there was any around the booth or anyone playing or anything.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: But I think Saturday night we had been taking public
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: transit basically the whole time, so we had to for
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: our airbnb walk down this really steep, really long set
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: of stairs, and then we went home, we had to
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: walk back up it, and Friday night, I think we
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: did that in the rain on the way home. So
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: Saturday night we were just kind of tired of it,
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: and we took an uber to a Chinese restaurant. So
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: Andrew Simon and Blue could get food and we weren't
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: too far from the airbnb. But we still didn't want
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: to walk to the train station, go one stop, and
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: then walk up those long ass stairs with a bag
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: of feet. So we called an uber again, and this
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: time it was a Prius and it's supposed to be
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: four seats, and as we started getting in, the guy
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: was like mumbling and complaining and just like saying a
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: bunch of stuff and we were trying to get in
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: and we had like the bag of food and everything.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: We all got in and he was just like, oh, guys,
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: this isn't gonna work. This isn't gonna work. And we're
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: just like but then he was, you know, starting to
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: put it in gear or something, and then he was
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: just like no, He's like, I'm just going to cancel
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: the ride, guys, I can't. I just fixed a flat
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: tire on this car and it's not gonna stop beeping
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: and it's just not worth the four dollars man, And
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: so we were like, okay, okay, so we got it.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: He had to get another uber.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: No, we just got out and went to the train
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: station and did.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: He ended up walking there?
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, But now our new joke is it's just not
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: worth the four dollars mane. So that was really the
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: only drama from the weekend.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: Gotcha all right? I think we're gonna skip the patch
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: notes and we're gonna go into Felix's little game. What's
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: your game for this week?
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: I've been liking the market card search. So the first
• 35:28
  Speaker 5: time we were just looking for just I guess unique
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: in general, just low cost ones. Then we then we
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: looked for giant characters, like very high, huge amount of cost.
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: So this time we're gonna search to the marketplace for
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: one mena cost characters instead, and.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: Let's see what we can find.
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: Those are pretty cool ones, actually.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's interesting. Ones.
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: One I picked is very cool.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: Which one did you pick?
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: The paper Herald, the trickster over there, the twister was wiring.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of words for a one mont of
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: cost character.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I always pick one, and you guys picked like five.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Two.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: Man, I don't know which one. I'm looking for a
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: Moona one. I don't see a Moona one. It's probably
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: this crummy axiom one.
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: I'm a light of player, so I always look for
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: lyric cards.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Are the axiom.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: Whatever found I found that was good.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll get the they put cool, but I think
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: it's cool because it's funny. So I'll get this one
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: out of the way.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: All right. So who who chose the paper herald?
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: I did?
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I capt figure that. What it does.
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: It's one cost from hand, one cost frome reserve. It's
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: a one zero one uh. That's it stats, and then
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: it has played from anywhere if you control four or
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: more characters, resupply, and then it has the support ability
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: to make it an orders one recruit soldier. So this
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: is basically just OZMA, but it only costs one manna
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: and its stats are still fine, so you know, getting
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: more card advantage. That's what I like to see.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: All right. Who's got axiom call?
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I picked not because it's cool, but because it's hilarious.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: So it's a one from hand, one from reserve, and
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: it's one one one in stats, and it reads if
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: you have two or more cards in reserve, you may
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: play exhausted cards from your reserve, and then it has
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: a quick action for exhausted resupply.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: It looks good to me. What's ironic about it?
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: It's worse than regular vite.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: It only costs one. What do you mean?
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: Oh, I forgot. I forgot that Dexter's value is always
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: manna based and yep, if it's one, it's good. The
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: regular Vikings says with no. Yes, I know, you can
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: play exhausted cards from your reserve.
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: But it also costs like three men, right, No, it
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: costs two.
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: To look for?
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: Aren't it stats also worse?
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: No, it's too.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, this unique is probably just bad. Then okay,
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: I thought costs three.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: We went through the whole series of emotions there. I
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: don't know if anybody is.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: So you want to know what's even funnier about this?
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: It's the most expensive unique out of all of these.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: It's seventeen.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: How much is it?
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: Wow?
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: Fer dollars?
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Sheeesh? I love it?
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: Who had the tatar?
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: I also put the red of Toscer in here. It
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: is a one from hands two from reserve. It is
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: a two to one one, and then we have played
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: from reserve. You may sacrifice a character. Sand Man effect
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: pretty good, and then it has supportability The next bercrat
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: you play this afternoon costs one less. I like having
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: more sand Man effects. I really like Sandman in really
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: any orders hero build and get more characters to put
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: your own guys to sleep and boost them up for later,
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: like if you have a token spammer, an orders, attorney,
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: a legate.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of different good stuff you want to
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: put to sleep.
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: And I'm gonna guess the next two are Felix. Yeah
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: it was lire as mine. Yeah, that's the only thing
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: I play. Go ahead, I truck out everything else.
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: The trickster is a one two one zero two, which
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: is okay for a one mana two abilities. The first
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: one is from anywhere long abilities.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, from anywhere, Yeah, I know.
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: It's like a relinquish, but an alter. If you have
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: three or more bastatistics of zero more characters you control,
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: it already counts itself. For one, you can return a
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: spell from your reserve to your hand. Pretty nice for
• 40:21
  Speaker 5: a one man if you can reuse your magical trainings
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: and stuff, and then from reserve you may put a
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: car from your hand in reserve, and if you do,
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: you roll a dice and then on the four plus
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: against tu booze and everything else against one.
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: This is the typical trickster ability.
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: This is actually a very very good one, and this
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: one you put was five dollars.
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: Yes, dollars cents?
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: Did you buy it?
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: My wallet is empty because they still can't connect to
• 40:53
  Speaker 5: my visa. Oh no, my market has been very bad
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: for me.
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that one's That one's really fun.
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would have bought it.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: What about?
• 41:05
  Speaker 6: What about the The disciple is just really it's I
• 41:09
  Speaker 6: think it's funny because it's a one one for one
• 41:12
  Speaker 6: zero zero and from anywhere.
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: If you control a landmark, your next book costs want less.
• 41:19
  Speaker 5: So it's pretty much he's a free character.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: It's just a free character for wants.
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 41:26
  Speaker 5: He's just a free character from one grass.
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: There is a landmark, uh that exists somewhere among the clouds.
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: Uh that Felix will be stoked for.
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: So I already like that. I already like the Tiger.
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: I haven't need to build stuff with it again.
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: But I was a huge stucker for that one.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: So I need to play that one again.
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: And I need to play my ether shard.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: I haven't done it yet.
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: You're all right, right?
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: Gosh, that thirteen hands six to blag turn that I
• 42:05
  Speaker 5: had with Fan was really fun.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: Events real quick before we get into the.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say why don't you hit up
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: the events ace. It's championship time, gonna break explain to us.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: The eighteenth is the Championship. I'm working on getting everyone
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: together that's qualified for that. People that just don't answer
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: or I can't find it'll roll down. So there's a
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: good chance if you were in like the top sixty
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: for the season, you'll have a chance to be invited.
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: And then I don't know what I'm gonna do next season.
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: I feel like there's been a lot of tournaments thatead
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: have popped up. There's a lot of good options these days.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: I have had some ideas for more unique event types
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: in the past that I just haven't had time to do,
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: so I might focus my attention on those. If this
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: gets to Patreon early and you're listening on Patreon before
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: the eighteenth, I'm going to add some extra prizing for
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: the championship, and then I think I'm going to do
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: something like give away a handful of boosters during the
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: live stream Sweet Altered Course.
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: I think it's worse for me to bring my laptop
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: so I can do that. I could do it on
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: my phone. It's just suboptimal.
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: I'll on I'll be on the plane. I guess during
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: the championship.
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you do what you gotta do. If you miss
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: a game, you're dropped, So you know, Okay. For Texas event,
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: I will start working on pre release info. I had
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: a lot to catch up with from packs. I had
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: to start figuring out who won what prizes, so if
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: you were there for the stream, I have most of
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: that figured out by now. I'm just confirming it, confirming
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: it with Loki. What are we whoop seeing? Oh?
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: I'm hitting buttons on my computer and it's doing things,
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: but nothing to effect a recording. So keep going.
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so don't worry.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: I spent thirty minutes making a Google spreadsheet to do
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: a raffle system based on tickets. I have the winners
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: for everything, just need to run that across Loki. I
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: have some of the prizes, so they'll be shipped from me.
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: Pre release info will be my next thing to work on.
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: I know we'll have one at common Ground, and I
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: just don't know what day. Also shout out to common
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: Ground in Dallas, who will be the official partner or
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: one of the qualifier events for Worlds that is later
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: this year. I I don't know if we'll get to
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: patch notes and all of.
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: That to go to bed here shortly, so.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: This episode, I mean in general, but I'm aware.
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: But yeah, anyways, all the usual tournaments are going a
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: QZ A wall and you see, and that leaves us.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: Sorry questions all right, This one comes from Chili. Why
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: do you consider yourselves the bad boys? I'm gonna leave
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: this one. I don't know.
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: So I think our podcast is kind of philosophically different
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: than a lot of the ones out there. I don't
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: think I say anything bad about the game or the
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: company or anything, but I also don't think we have
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: like a professional, straightforward polish like just gonna give you
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: the information and be real buttoned up, which is how
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of the other podcasts are.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: Is that is that what people want?
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: It's lame, it's not.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: It's not a bad thing at all, but like your
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: Fleeting Thoughts is like a really concise, like forty five
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: minutes of just information, which they need to keep making
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: episodes more because I like to listen to other podcasts
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: and then I just like to turn everything up, you know,
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: the meme, the meme knob a little bit, and then
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: you know, we swear and don't care and go on tangents.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: Yep, yep, more ship. Yeah, I think life's more fun
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: with a little bit of flavor. Oh yeah, I don't
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: know if that necessarily make us, makes us the bad boys,
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: or if that just makes us entertaining. You de side?
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: All right? What do we got for the next one?
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: Am I reading it?
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: Or you?
• 47:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: You read? I can't see. My eyes are watering like crazy,
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: They're watering like nutstit. I am. I just took an
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: alegra and I'm hoping it works.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: So this this question is also from Chile. When will
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: Wookie give up on keyboards?
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: Never?
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: All right, I will be stop making.
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: I will be going down with the ship.
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: They're coming out with their new game at gen Con
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: and also not giving updates to their backers.
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: I hear, Yeah, that sounds about right. I don't. I
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: don't mean they.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: Finally started shipping the last game found for key Forge,
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: but it'll be probably another two weeks before we get it.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: I don't even watch their new game.
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: I don't even know they're just starting a new game
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: when they're doing a lot of advertising for it a
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: chain con.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: Let's find out, go scaut ne TCG. Yeah, it's not
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: on there.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: They did a game found for some Lord of the Rings.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they Lord of the Rings. It was a Lord
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: of the Rings. It's confrontation, but Lord of the Rings.
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: So that's that's whatever. But I didn't know they were doing.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: I knew they had another game coming out, and it's
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: supposed to be very similar. I don't know if it's
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: very similar, but again, it's algorithmically generated, like key Forages.
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: I don't I don't know what that means. You know,
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: they're they're very don't tell us.
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: It's called Echo of Omens, and I guess. There is
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: a pre released preview and the description is players step
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: into the shoes of a courageous hero, rallying their champions
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: for epic battles, or they can take on the role
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: of a cunning overlord, directing their commanders in a quest
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: for dominance. Players will participate in a teaching session together,
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: then play one verse one in a single round of play.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: Games will be timed so as to not exceed forty
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: five minutes of play. Participants are advised to arrive ten
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: to fifteen minutes prior. Blah blah blah, blah, blah blah blah,
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: but it's listed as a t TCG by Ghost Galaxy,
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: and it's just a wonderful time to launch a new
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: TCG on a new on a new ip about I
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: think a month before League of Legends launches their TCGs.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: Know where are you finding this info? It's just on
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: the gen Con schedule. Yeah, yeah, well, you know.
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: I'll beat gen Con. Maybe I'll look at some of.
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: That when it When it comes to Ghost Galaxy, I've
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: never claimed they were smart.
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: Nope.
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: You know, they've got a very dedicated player base that
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: they continue not to deliver for on the key Forge side,
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: and they're like, yep, we're just going to totally focus
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: on this next game, which is super upsetting if you're
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: a longtime KeyForge person, right yeah, it's like you know,
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: I've I've supported you for how long now, and like
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: you're just you're using basically the short skinny of what
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: I figured out for key Forges. Ghost Galaxy is using
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: the money that they get from the key Forge to
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: basically support to support their other endeavors, right, which I get,
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: but to another degree, like.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: You'll support key Forge.
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: How about you you're right, how about you give us
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: some of the things that we've been asking for, like,
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: you know, local op of any fucking sort, right, we
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: even offer to just donate money to have some form
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: of local op, you know. But again, you know, in
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: a in a marketplace that's completely already flooded with TCGs,
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: and you have more coming out and more with stronger
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: ips behind them. It's not a Fortnite TCG.
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: Yet, not yet.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: Eventually, I'm kind of surprised nobody's tried that band again,
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: like Legal Legends, like okay, yep, that definitely has a
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: strong following. That makes sense for somebody to be like,
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: let's make it a card game. But then, like the
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: other one is Fortnite, I'm kind of surprised they're not, Like, hey,
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: I guess that'd be tough, right, because they do a
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: lot of collapse with a lot of other stuff, right,
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: like how do you use Star Wars characters and.
• 52:25
  Speaker 7: The game?
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: Right, So that would be super tough, and it probably
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: wouldn't happen, right because most of their ips are already
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: in card games of other sorts, are owned by other people,
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: so maybe that's the reason.
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: But I also found out Ghost Galaxy has this game
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: called mind Bug.
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: They don't they don't own mind Bug yeah, they just print.
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: It your Pineapple paladins.
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've never played mind Bug.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: I've never played mind Bug either.
• 53:00
  Speaker 3: Right, it's also for Wookie. Is Wookie jealous of all
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: the spoilers I got to see from Draconis?
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: Ye?
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: Bullshit?
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: Well why didn't you just come?
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: I mean you can see most of them now too online.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: I just look in the right place.
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: I know, not some of the ones that Draconis saw.
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: I don't go.
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: I don't ask for much, you know, I asked for
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: a spoiler, right, Just give me a spoiler, right, and then, uh,
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: what elseome? I think? I just want a spoiler. And
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: but you know, Cole gets all the cool shit, you know,
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: But that's that's cool. That's what's up. Cole's better than everybody.
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: Just remember that Coal's better than you.
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: I did my time. I applied for one for Trial
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: by Frost, didn't make it in. Now I'm on next
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: in line for this set.
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: Yep, I did not. I didn't apply for the set,
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: but I kind of thought you would. But you know,
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: it's okay.
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: I did the same for Trial by Frost.
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, so I mean we just have to
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: be cooler than col It's gonna be tough to do,
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: but I'm gonna try.
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: I am the tallest person and altered, so.
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, if that's a thing that gets you cards, okay.
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, are you really the tallest person? For sure?
• 54:20
  Speaker 4: I'm sure there's someone else that plays altered that's taller
• 54:22
  Speaker 4: than you.
• 54:23
  Speaker 3: Nope, there's no one taller.
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: Well, once we made people from the Netherlands.
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: Probably did you not see the picture of me standing
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: next to Loki.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: He had to have been sitting in that picture.
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: There's no way, I promise you one hundred he was
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: not sitting.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: He's not standing a full two feet taller than him.
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: He is standing. I guarantee it.
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: No, yep, I don't believe you.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: You don't have to believe me. There were witnesses.
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: I need names.
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: Uh. I was also leaning over as you can see.
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: What we can see on the table we can see
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: we can't see.
