    you don't have to have good reflexes to be good at fighting games
    like in all things, its not about innate skill, its about practicing for 1-2 hours a day for the rest of your life
    shit its like diet and exercise, its impossible, forget it

    Shameful pursuits and utterly stupid opinions

    @credeiki it's really not that hard to be decent at fighting games. The execution aspect is tough but it doesn't take years and years or anything. People who get into a local scene go from "how do I do a hadoken" to semifinal placements within a year sometimes.

    They're not significantly more difficult than any other competitive real-time game.

    I've added two of these to my deck already, might add more.

    Absolutely flummoxed some people today with it and I expect it's going to be -super annoying- for most players to deal with.

    It's because deep down you're a good person Hahnsoo, you need to be a real shit berg to have a posting record like I do.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    That looks like a nightmare card. I made 4 okos and 4 golden geese and have been tinkering with that token deck. It's fun but I need more removal I think. Tons of people doing the red calamity deck.

    did the old death and taxes type cards rotate out or did they make that archetype better for standard

    I think my favourite "crazy video gaming skill" is that Dishonoured shit that one dude pulled. Like, elaborate, 58-move runs through a level where he'd shoot an arrow in the air and before it fell (On a dude's head), he'd kill four people, and get three others to kill themselves.

    Or whatever.

    It was fascinating seeing what kind of horseshit could be pulled in that game.

    What if you did not grow up at a console and struggle a little bit with controllers instead of kbam?
    What if you are someone who has practiced a different game assiduously for 5 years and are still terrible at it???

    (...I lost 3 games of LoL last night just as I’m trying so hard to push to plat and it’s making me so sad)

    It and Hushbringer might be the only cards I really add to my white/black health gain deck.

    A smart person would not play more games of ranked LoL tonight after being mentally exhausted from full day of meetings and physically exhausted from the climbing gym and tilted from losing yesterday

    ...someone log on tonight and force me to play non-ranked so I don’t lose more...

    @trace @SniperGuy

    I've found that Arena players have trouble with pillowfort effects in general. I can't tell you the number of times I've cast Forboding Spirit and watched my opponent keep clicking and unclicking his creatures on his attack phase like he's confused.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    the "no true scotch man" fallacy.

    I bought Samsho and played a fun lobby with my friend but I haven't touched it again

    I’ve never gotten into magic cards. I can absolutely see the appeal but/and I know if I played I would need to be obsessive about it, so I’ve refrained.
