    That's so weird - the mobile version updated, I started it up and the announcement had a screenshot of MM with Mockingbird and Man-Thing before the game borked trying to force me to create a custom card.

    Then when I reloaded, it was Ghost-Spider instead.

    I was planning on going Dragon/Bleed, but honestly, at 20 dex and 15 arcane, bleed already feels pretty fun. I peeked at a guide to see if there was anything I should be looking out for, and ended up killing the big dragon with a golden pickle foot thing, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to exploit it, and my hesitation solved the question for (which is probably for the best), but now I’m running around in the cloth dress and exile boots with just Reduvia, the starting bleed knife, and a random dagger with Golden Vow on it for the Blue Dancer charm, and it’s kind of fun being a melee-ish glass cannon.

    a couple relatively small things

    first, it looks like your horizon is at a bit of an odd angle. you don't have to have a perfectly flat horizon but it's generally considered good technique (I can imagine this being a conscious choice to frame the couple better). second, and this really is minor and might only get noticed by other photo folks if they're specifically looking for it, but having that little bit of the sun underneath the guy's nose is a little distracting. a slight angle adjustment to either get rid of it completely, or maybe get it placed centrally between them (depending on what that did to the light balance) would probably help the composition (although that's very much something you're not guaranteed to catch when actually taking the shot)

    really nice shot though, good subjects, good composition, the emotion of the people involved comes through really clearly even in total shadow

    If I use wax it is classified as a bladed weapon in 129 countries.

    Do you use beard oil? i recently have become a convert to the church of beard oil, as it changes a beard from having random stray lines like you were sketched to making it much more neat and soft.

    I've mostly used beard oil for a couple of years, and in the last year or so I actually got a beard wax. The first one I got was wrong for me though, it was a really firm wax that I had big problems applying evenly.

    Late last year I actually started going to a barber, and I've since switched to the beard wax he uses. It's a very soft butter consistency so I can spread it way easier.

    And getting a heated beard brush (like a real hipster) was an absolute game changer. Though one side effect, that may or may not be something people want out of it, is that the beard starts feeling a lot thinner when the hairs all point in the same direction.

    Holy shit Mockingbird is strong. I foresee nerfs in her future. Probably either a higher base cost, lower Power, or minimum reduction to 1. I'd highly recommend running Mobius for a while.

    Small indie company, blah blah

    I really hate the spotlight system. If I spend a single key I have, I'll often get the new card. If I have 3... I won't get the new card. Like today. Ugh. Two variants I didn't want and 1000 token conversion for a card I had already. So shitty.

    I'll be able to get another key before the week's out, but ugggggghhhhh

    yup, also good points

    this is kind of a good example of how easy it is to focus just on your subject and lose track of the little bits of everything else, especially in a shot like this where the subjects are so centrally focused. always important to take a second to evaluate the entire composition

    I'm actually onboard with the Spotlight system. Before the system existed, I had no S5 cards except the ones I got with tokens. Granted, we were getting more tokens and regular card drops back then, but it's been mathed out that we get more cards now than in the old system.

    There's certainly frustrations with cards being put out in a specific order. Targeting certain weeks and hoarding keys is optimal. I see far too many people on Twitter/Reddit complain about not getting the card they want while having fewer than 4 keys. That shit is crazy that people would roll the dice like that.

    General verdict seems to be that Chiori is great for Itto teams, and can also work well in teams with Ningguang or geo Traveller (which probably still won't be the best teams in the world, but, certainly better now). Also solid for Noelle, but probably not her best team, because you have to go out of your way to add a character who provides a geo construct. She can also be randomly slotted into pretty much any team that uses Zhongli and has space for a second geo.

    Awkwardly, Chiori is only okay with Navia, unless you get Chiori's C1. Without it, you'll either have a suboptimal Chiori because of a lack of a geo construct, or a suboptimal Navia because of only using one non-geo character. Which is unfortunate, but it is what it is. "Suboptimal" doesn't mean awful, thankfully; she's probably still about as good as Albedo.

    Eh, sometimes you really want a card and ya got what you got for keys.

    I mean, there your keys, so spend them how you want. It's just that the system is rigged to take your keys, so going in with anything less than 4 is a set-up for frustration. People getting super angry after going all-in with one key is mindblowing to me.

    I wonder if Man-Thing might just need a slight power bump or something. He's a need card that sees almost no play. :(

    No, Kitty bounces back at the start of the turn, so I'm guessing cloudeagle only did this on 1 & 2, which was still enough to get the opponent to play there. Could also have been a bot?

    I mean, I've done similar things myself when I'm playing while watching TV (most recently, forgetting that one of the locations was Bar With No Name and still playing a Doctor Doom on the final turn. Thankfully my opponent did not forget, and used Storm on it in the last turn hoping to snatch it)

    Well, here's a thing. We're a week away from X-Men 97's release. The showrunner, Beau DeMayo, had just finished writing the second season and was preparing for a press tour.

    But then Marvel straight-up fired him, complete with suddenly deactivated corporate e-mail.

    No one knows what the hell happened. Did he get Milkshake Ducked?

    Supposedly he had an OnlyFans and also posted somewhat sexual content on his social media. But that's something that Disney should've known from the start since it wasn't something he was hiding. Wondering if this is a Jonathan Majors type incident or a James Gunn type.

    Right, supposedly his semi-naughty OnlyFans was both well-known (dude was very online) and shut down. Then again Gunn's stupid comments were known about and already apologized for.

    Yeah, I did it on turn 1 and 2, then my opponent played TWO cards there on turn 3. There was a looooong pause before they played on turn 4, so I don't think it was a bot. I was evenly split between laughing and feeling bad for them.

    Shouldn't be too tricky.

    Most arcane weapons can just switch over to occult and be fine. Daggers are like the one exception, just because of how defenses in these games tend to work against weaker hits.

    And outside of infusion, there are tons of arcane scaling weapons that aren't bleed focused and are physical or magical or fire.

    Tbh I think pure arcane with a little faith for incantation variety is about as versatile as builds get in ER.

    Ah, I assumed you were a little further in to be hitting enemies that Reduvia can't just annihilate. Can't get the universal Occult/Bleed/Poison infusion whetstone until after Radahn. For Occult fairly early in the game, your options would be Spectral Lance Ash of War from Raya Lucaria (Spears, Great Spears, and Halberds) or Lifesteal Fist Ash of War in Caelid (Fists and Claws). You could also get Poison infusion from two different Ashes of War in Caelid (Poison Mist and Poisonous Moth) to cover basically anything, if the enemy in question isn't immune to poison.

    Strongest option might be to just go pick up Regalia of Eochaid, a straight sword that does physical and magic damage, on the border of Limgrave and Caelid. Can go through a cave in Caelid to reach it or spend like 20 minutes trying to do some goofy jumps on walls to get up to it from the 'exit' side.

    Or just use dragon spells and annihilate everything with status effects.

    Or go get the Arcane+Faith seal from the very first dungeon (the one that's locked with imp keys at the very start) and use faith spells.
