Krang savate kicked the baby.
Was the baby, in fact, being a dick?
Disney totally sucks baboon ass for firing him over something on Twitter from like 11 years ago. That information was publicly available back then, and it's their fault for not properly vetting him in the first place. If they don't like that stuff, they should have not hired him back then. Waiting until they're two movies deep, and have a massive fanbase, and all of that hinges his creative vision, and then firing him because they are dumb is just wrong. Plus, James Gunn is/was a shock humorist. People make vulgar and distasteful jokes all the time for the shock value. That doesn't mean he believes it or lives it out.
I'm not sure. I read it as a take on the GuildWars 2 shenanigans a few weeks ago when Jessica Price verbally abused some poor guy on twitter during July 4th, got canned because of it, and then was up in arms about it because it was off-hours. Seems a 1:1 comparison to this comic.

My head canon crumbles to dust around me, I am but a broken man...
They mostly play as Barbarians.
So during the transfer window there'd be bids for who would get to play Jim Darkmagic, but you'd also get stuff about what Mike said on Twitter.

If you tend to enjoy playing Magic but dislike building decks, I suggest drafting. The most basic way I can describe it is you sit down with some people (ideally 8 people total, but 6 or 10 work fine), each with three packs, and in a roundabout way you each use the cards in the packs to build a deck, 1 card at a time. If you've played games like 7 Wonders, it's basically like that. Then y'all have a mini tournament (swiss parings, rather than elimination), and everyone gets to keep the cards they drafted. I do it almost every week, it's super fun. You can use the WOTC site to find a local game store, many of which have weekly drafts.
Keyforge comes with prebuilt decks, and you can't modify them because that's the whole point. Each deck is self-contained and has the name of the deck printed on the back and front.
The exception to the "unique" rule is that the $40 starter set comes with four decks: two unique ones and two decks that are the same in every starter set. But those two decks are supposed to be for new players somehow (I don't 100% get that reasoning) and new $10 decks will always be unique.
I will also note that unique is really referring to the totality of cards included in the deck. I'm betting two different decks will often have cards that do the exact same thing, just with a different deck name printed on it.
And yes, the decks are allegedly balanced by a computer algorithm, such that there aren't "good" decks and "bad" decks.
Allegedly.

Jessica Price got fired for having the temerity of calling out somebody who was telling her how to do her job, despite her employer previously saying standing up for herself and her coworkers on social media was laudable.
So no, not at all the same thing.

I like how you're ignoring that she was a complete ass to a fan who just wanted to have a (completely respectful) conversation with a developer from one of his favorite games. Don't post a thought piece on a platform where comments are enabled if you're batshit crazy and can't handle discussion on the topic you present.
Edit: Whoops... shoulda read the rest of the posts first. Just saw your post Tube, sorry! I'll drop it.
It is dropped!
Last I checked expressing a different artistic opinion and explaining why you hold that opinion isn't telling someone how to do their job... its simply having a different artistic opinion. Especially since telling one how to do their job requires telling someone to actually do something, not simply disagreeing with a viewpoint of something mostly subjective being "impossible".

Translating that to the idea of competitive Pen and Paper, would you expect to see the same thing? Or is there a lot more flexibility since RP is generally a big factor in tabletop.
Like, appealing to the DM is a thing in Pen and Paper. "I want to do this" "Ok, that is sufficiently badass, I will allow it."

I call Ledgerman!

It's called XCrawl.
But don't get your hopes up, it's from the dark depths of d20. Prestige classes relying on ranks in "profession(athlete)" and rules for super combos which mean that wizards have the easiest time doing them, since they can use spells, which can be quickened and don't even have to risk failing.
"You mean 'legerdemain'?"
"No, Ledgerman."
No joke, I'm putting together a Gloomhaven game among my friends and said in an email, "There's room for four, unless anybody else wants to come just to watch or play Ledgerman." [including appropriate link to Parks & Rec]
I got two volunteers to help with scorekeeping. :biggrin:

How does Batman defeat Ledgerman?
By preparing all his W-2s and charity deductions.
You just need some marketing sping. It's a live Let's Play. Plenty of room for spectators.
I roleplay with a group of tax inspectors, and Ledgerman will definitely be making his way into the plot at some point - maybe as a criminal gang enforcer who also does their accounting
I see his introduction as the players first noticing his DEAD knuckle tats on his left fist, which is threatening until you see the CLIC knuckle tats on the other hand
Dual-wielding daggers in a style he calls The Double Entry System
