So far Silent Hill 2 is really doing it for me. It's the perfect blend of puzzle to combat, with a HEAPING dose of atmosphere.

Although, I do wish I had upped the Puzzle difficulty a notch.

1) We don't know, but I would think it will remain since it's accessed by the Portal system.

2) Anytime you wanna run, I got you boo. Happy to Sherpa the routes so it takes 20min and not 50min.

Dear @magic.wizards.com:

I am very disappointed with my Secret Lair experience this past Monday.

Despite adding the 1 SLD I wanted and clicking checkout as close to 9am PDT as possible, my queue time was estimated as over an hour.

I hope that you research why there have been so many reports of a coordinated effort by resellers to skip the queue system and buy out all the desirable drops within the first 30min or so. I hope that you take stock of the massive number of disappointed players and collectors who are just buying a few pieces for their collections and adjust what you expect Secret Lair to actually deliver to your playerbase.

Until there are changes to the system, I will not be attempting to purchase any more drops.

Regards,
Higgins
Player since The Dark

For real.

Shortcutting the two color combos with the Ravnica Guilds kinda makes sense, but even then to a new player it's all just gibberish.

I've been too negative here lately.

Have a pretty picture I took this weekend at Mills Riverside Park in Vermont.

Glass-like pond surface reflecting trees in various shades of yellow, orange and red as well as blue sky.

Bare branches extend down from the top of the photo breaking up the clouds.

It certainly helped last night!

Welcome to Week 3 of this cold not quite leaving my body.

Runny nose, random coughing. I'm so fucking over it.

Higgins8🦊2 @higgins802.com · 2d

Welp. Fuck me I guess.

@magic.wizards.com, you HAVE to do better. Go back to print on demand, or employ a lottery system. Anything but this queue that makes me waste an hour right in the middle of my day.

Higgins8🦊2 @higgins802.com · 2d

Once again I queue into the Secret Lair shop right at 12pm EST.

Once again I ask, "is there not a better method than this bullshit queuing system, @magic.wizards.com ?"

Screen cap of a web browser for the Secret Lair page. It reads:

"Welcome to the Secret Lair Lounge
Expected arrival time on the website: more than an hour PST
Your estimated wait time is: more than an hour "

Absolutely unhinged behavior from Timmy's stream last night.

I laughed, I cried, I want to science again soon.

Funny enough, Mikey is probably the only one I'm gonna play.

He'll be a great addition to my Merry and Pippin, Wardens of Isengard deck.

Higgins8🦊2 @higgins802.com · 5d

Honestly not a fan of these IP flavored rebranding of existing products.

Just call it a Bundle. Diverting from established terms, even ones as close as this one, can confuse new players and even enfranchised ones if they aren't paying enough attention.

Magic: The Gathering @magic.wizards.com · 5d

The #MTGxTMNT Pizza Bundle has everyone's favorite slice of the set, like booster packs and pizza lands. The most delicious part is that you'll find 2 (of 6 total) cards from Magic's past in each bundle, each with pizza-themed artwork.

This image depicts the product packaging for the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Pizza Bundle".
The illustration on the box shows four humanoid turtles looking excitedly at a pepperoni and mushroom pizza as the turtle on the far right grabs a slice.
On the top left corner of the package reads "Magic: The Gathering" and on the bottom left of the package reads "Includes piping hot Collector Booster!"

This image depicts the card "Dark Ritual". One black mana. Instant. Mythic rarity.

Card art: This illustration shows a humanoid rat smiling maniacally as he holds a book open in one hand while the other spinkles olives onto a pizza.

Rules text: Add three black mana.

Flavor text: "Esposito, my liege, grant me the flavor I am due."
- Splinter, the Nibblemancer

Higgins8🦊2 @higgins802.com · 5d

That would have been my color assignment as well.

Higgins8🦊2 @higgins802.com · 5d

Ugh. These are so cool.

Magic: The Gathering @magic.wizards.com · 5d

The #MTGxTMNT set has four borderless headliner cards that feature art by Kevin Eastman, the original illustrator of TMNT. Take a look at that shiny signature stamp! So rad.

This image shows off the card ""Leonardo, Sewer Samurai"". Three mana, white mana. Legendary Creature - Mutant Ninja Turtle. Rare Rarity.

Cart art: This full art treatment is done in the black and white comic book style of original TMNT comic creator Kevin Eastman. It depicts a humanoid turtle leaping over the rooftops of a city. The card boxes are lined in gold and the rules text box is signed in gold by Eastman with a doodle of a samurai helmet.

Rules text: Sneak Two mana, two white mana.
Double strike.
During your turn you may cast creature spells with power or toughness one or less from your graveyard. If you cast a spell this way, that creature enters with a finality counter on it. Power three/toughness three.

Is it responsible to take out a second mortgage to buy some art?
