    It definitely does on console, usually somewhere near the bottom. I'm surprised it doesn't on pc.

    I'm pretty sure it did at one point on pc. I had to learn of it some where and as it's not a button I can press so I can say with some certainty that it's never been in the keybinds list.

    EDIT: Took a break from cyberpunk to see if there was any indicator for spy as apposed to normal console hacking, and realized I had forgotten to do this weeks archon hunt, thank goodness for confusion.

    So it was a combo veggie/meat plate. The good in the middle is Dora, sauced chicken legs with a hard boiled egg. I also had options for lamb or beef dishes.

    The veggies along the side are lentils, corn, collard greens , cabbage, a sauce and beans.

    You use the injera underneath and on the side to scoop them up. It's kinda like a sourdough tortilla.

    This is probably what most common dish people get since it is you try a little bit of everything.

    Here are some Sunday Funday decks I found online that I thought y'all might want to try out. As a bonus, they all feature Black Swan if you need to get those weekend missions with her completed.

    Swanos
    2wi0r79m6bgq.png
    *not sure why the stats say 7-6, as I only played it twice for 2-0/5 cubes*

    Swanos is a Zoo hybrid for Thanos. Your win conditions are Spectrum or Valk on T6. Ideally, you play Black Swan on on T4 so you can flood + Prof X or T5 so you can flood your 1-drops on T6. Time Stone on T3 can ramp out BM or Prof X on T4. Play out stones, Dazzler, and Ka-Zar on curve to prep your locations for your pop-off T5/T6 plays.

    Strong Dump
    6qdok6w2h81z.png
    rq6jhc4quv6c.png

    These popular decks are variations of the hand dump concept. You aim to end the game with an empty hand to empower your Strong Guy. The versions play out differently, with Drac looking to hit Red Skull/Infi and Zoo going wide with Monkey. Both decks want to play BS on T5 to empty the hand on T6.Blade is very important to hold as a T6 play. Use him to discard any cards to leave your hand empty (Zoo) or with only one big card left for Drac.

    For the Zoo version, try to hold Electra until near the end of the game. NOBODY is playing around her and she can snipe off a Sunpot/Nebula for a huge board swing. Hitting a 2/3 power 1-drop is a 4/5 power swing by itself. I've stolen cubes with her.

    Monkey Miracle
    3qgdpnztxeyo.png

    This deck is a hybrid Monkey Bounce deck using the Lovers (CA + A13). You'll have to really focus on your turns and think about your follow up plays, so no auto-piloting here. Typical Monkey gameplan. Use your 1-drops to maximize On Reveals then bouncing them back to hand. Bishop and Hit Monkey aim to win you two locations.

    BS on T5 sets up your massive T6 with Monkey while powering up your Bishop. Bast only has 2 bad target in BS and Demons, so use her liberally. Getting 2+ Demons in hand is often game winning. Captain America is a surprising 3/8 in a full location with A13 on board.

    Playing Gold Conquest and lost an 8-cube game in round 1. Opponent Ms. Marvel emotes a few times, so I do my best Captain America impression and say, "I can do this all day." I proceed to rope every single turn in the second and third games. They left midway through the third game.

    I recognize that I am an asshole, but I'm also a spiteful fuck with a lot of free time today to troll a troll.

    If they refuse to give me a global mute, and my opponent does any BM bullshit, I am 1000% with you - I will rope every single thing I do, I will drag it out, I will be as petty as the tools allow me to be, and I will never, ever, feel bad about it. I most frequently have to do it after we both snap and bump first round of proving grounds, and they don't leave after losing, but have also been hit with the unneeded emote spam that required some additional spice.

    Arknights is being very generous to me, and I do not know how to deal with that fact, considering that it is still a gacha game.

    Last week I spent approximately 85 pulls on Joint Operation banner and got Pozemka first, then Mlynar at the end, which was literally the best case scenario that I could get. I needed to farm a lot using sanity boosters, but now Mlynar is finally E2, so he can use his third skill.

    Then I set up Kernel Locating for Skadi (because she seems to be important character lore wise) and Bagpipe (because she cute and hella strong). I got Headhunting Permit from daily bonus, so what the hell, I throw it in immediately.

    Instant Skadi, from a single pull.

    I am almost F2P (I bought monthly pass for 5$), but after 7 weeks of playing I already acquired ten 6* operators, among which are Mlynar, Pozemka, Surtr, Eyja Caster and Eyja Hvit Aska - it really feels like my squad is very strong at this point and I just need more time to properly level them all up.

    I literally have no idea what you are talking about. All my experience in these games screams you are flatly wrong.

    This is bizarro talk to me so I'm just gonna agree to disagree.

    You might be totally convinced of your opinion but there's no way you are ever convincing me.

    I know this is ages ago, but this is 100% my experience as well. Pyromancy in DS1 was a "lol I win" button, Demon Souls magic was just crushingly easier and any major ranged spell sniping makes even the obnoxious bosses of Elden Ring far easier. In particular those incredibly shit tiny room rot worms and such. Just the most obnoxious shit ever to fight in melee.

    So help me god I hope Elden Ring's DLC doesn't do that shit again.

    I think the rotten tree spirits are way, way easier in melee. Like, even casting, you're in that thing's armpits.

    In terms of like, the level of raw execution expected of you I think tree spirits are easier in melee, but that does have the problem that you frequently can barely see what it's doing, so I can see why someone would prefer casting against them.

    The solution to the ulcerated tree spirits is, of course, caster melee with a shield.

    Catch Flame shreds them.

    I've yet to meet an enemy Carian Slicer didn't fuck up either. That and Catch Flame are my favorite spells in the game, and I wish there were more options in exactly the same vein.

    That said, a simple hammer usually beats most bosses easier.

    Exactly in the same vein as in like, fairly quick workhorse melee spells, or just good melee spells? Because if it's the latter you actually do have a lot of options there, you can absolutely make melee pure casters with a varied, effective moveset of like, slicer as your workhorse, piercer as your heavy, moonblade as crowd control/status, hammer as your biggest dumbest button.

    Oh, yeah, that's my favorite build! I just am thinking maybe more for the faith set. The faith stuff is way harder to pull off due to cast time, but it does stagger easier. I guess that's the trade-off, but I still want some spells like what Margit/Morgott cast with the blade rain. A tech option where you jump back and throw some daggers like he does would be so fun.

    I haven't done a full on melee purecaster for incants like I have for sorceries, but I did do an incant character that made heavy use of crucible incants. Seemed to me that while they were a bit slower than piercer, they also had really good hyper armor, so if you just build for decent poise and health you could make up for that lower speed with a greater ability to just poise through and win trades.

    deadpool destroy has been the best deck since they nerfed blob. and when they went to “nerf” it last month they chickened out and instead buffed it with the hulkbuster change which smoothed out its curve.

    it’s still really effective and cosmo is a self own against it in some regards because you can’t shadow king anymore. pretty much have to throw down random hard reads, and unless you snap beforehand the destroy deck is out with 1 cube easy.

    I'm really not sure what Deadpool deck people are railing against here.
    My Deadpool deck lost a lot when Chavez was changed way back when, and I don't see anything that would have fixed the consistency issues around not drawing Deadpool or not drawing the appropriate destroy.
    The Hulk Buster change is nice, but it's still very drought or bounty, I imagine.

    I was running Cosmo not to long ago and obliterating people because nobody plays around it.

    I think it’s past time that Zabu gets changed. Enabling two 4-drops on T6 is busted beyond belief. 4-drops can be strong because you can’t normally play two at once. Zabu changes all that.

    Given the Beast change, I wouldn’t be surprised if Zabu turns into an On Reveal with the same ability. And truth be told, if that kills Zabu, I’d be ok with that for a while. See what a non-Zabu meta would look like for a bit.

    i don't want zabu touched until they figure out how to make good 3 drops - i feel like zabu is a symptom of a problem that they have across all decks (lackluster choices at 3) - look at black swan - completely overstatted with a positive ability and still basically did not move the needle. glenn has said it also, that they have an issue with 3 drops, so we'll see if they can find something workable there.

    You might be able to handle white balance by using a non-OS standard photography app; I tend to use Halide, if that’s available on your OS

    Tablecloth seems okay, might just need to run it through the laundry or iron it to get those out-of-package folds out of it; I’m assuming it’s shiny fabric and not plastic?
