or swing for 8 points of lethal then realize it's only 7 in the same round because you're on the phone

This is the most goblin card I have seen in a long time.

I find the new font so much more offensive than the new border

Posted: **Mon Jun 23, 2014 1:03 pm**

The font name is even more offensive than how it looks.

Agreed

Overall, I think the Boss sligh deck is one of the more degenerate things in standard and it steamrolls all the top deck
What is a "metagame"?
Metagaming -
Metagaming is any strategy, action or method used in a game which transcends a prescribed ruleset, uses external factors to affect the game, or goes beyond the supposed limits or environment set by the game. Another definition refers to the game universe outside of the game itself.

The highest level of strategy in many complex games, metagame refers to any aspect of strategy that
involves thinking about what your opponent is thinking you are thinking.

Metagame comes into play in any game where no single strategy is dominant and opposing sides are aware of multiple strategies that can succeed dependent upon opponents' actions. In order to perform at the highest level, it then becomes necessary to think about what your opponent thinks you will do (which may depend on what he thinks you think he thinks he will do, etc.) and to make decisions based on clues regarding what level they are thinking on.

This term is most commonly used to refer to poker and other complex card games, but is increasingly being used in relation to video games with complicated player vs player elements and even traditional sports.

Ex-
"Normally I would raise the flop with this hand as a semi-bluff, but I've been so aggressive lately that taking metagame into consideration I think he will go all-in with any pair, so instead I'm going to fold."
Ex-
"This guy thinks that I'm going to
zergling rush which means he will waste resources defending early. Instead I am going to focus on resource development for mid game, and metagame will win me this match. "

"Meta" is short for metagame. You've been using the term correctly.

Damn man I'm sorry, you wrote all that: Poe's Law I guess

I meant in a "JEOPARDY" sense.
Like:"I'll take "THE WORLD AS IT SHOULD BE" for $1200 ALEX"
Answer: What is "a metagame".

the font name is unnecessarily gaudy and adds insult to the injury of the new cardface.

Please tell me Wall of Essence isn't a real card.

Posted: **Mon Jun 23, 2014 2:55 pm**

Much to my lament, it is. It's an old card from Stronghold.

@Midnight- it literally took me seconds to Google search and copy/paste.

You vanished off of Facebook. What happened, Holmes? Was gonna see if you were going to be in Columbus.

Posted: **Mon Jun 23, 2014 4:53 pm**

I've had my facebook account deactivated for a few weeks, thoroughly enjoyed it actually. It makes me hate my friends when I see the stupid shit they post.

I was at a wedding and missed Columbus. Unfortunately the next two invitationals are in NJ and WA, so I might not even attend those.

I didn't actually play in the Invitational, but a lot of the local guys went so I ended up playing side events all weekend. Also shadowed a little in prep for my L1 test.

what a great show

the office and family guy are two shows I could watch reruns of and not care

Posted: **Mon Jun 23, 2014 5:46 pm**

both of them became unwatchable after about the fifth season, same as most sitcoms/comedies

Seinfield was fantastic.

In other news, after my enjoyable experience with boss sligh, gonna try his modern infect deck.

Posted: **Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:42 pm**

Modern? I knew he played Infect in Legacy and was curious if he also had a Modern version. Have a link?

EDIT: google is hard.

even for a red card this is bad

I like the art. That's it.

Really, the only thing exciting me so far from this new set is the reprint of Shrapnel Blast and Foundry Street Denizen. Denizen remaining in the format for another year after rotation means that little Red aggro is going to be a possibility. And I like that.

I do also like the new additions for my Kaalia deck,
so there's that I guess.

Posted: **Mon Jun 23, 2014 10:52 pm**

I similarly was overly happy to see FSD reprinted.

Don't deny this. Don't make it weird. Just go with it.

Boss Sligh is not a real deck, its just good against clunky control decks.

Only decks is bad against are generally bad decks. Great match against all the tier one stuff.

Posted: **Tue Jun 24, 2014 12:47 am**

Actually Foundry street denizen might be my favorite one drop ever. I play it in standard when i play boss sligh (i built it months ago before building r/w burn) , i play it in modern goblins (i steamroll a lot of tier 1 decks with it similarly to boss sligh in standard), i play it in pauper goblins. And most importantly he is a goblin

I love goblin guide, goblin lackey and so on, but FSD is special ; i just need to find a way to play him in legacy. And i didn't mention i play him in krenko edh : making like 15 tokens and attacking with a 16/1 trampling first striking thanks to legion loyalist is orgasmic

Posted: **Tue Jun 24, 2014 1:21 am**

Delver is my favorite one drop ever.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go drink bleach for even saying that.

Cool cool I think there's enough regeneration about here with out me doing it "unintentionally".
