I briefly put them on my wants list before realizing that’s an insane thing to do

The children yearn for the budget formats

Thank you ❤️

For my future reference, am I correct in thinking Huntsman’s/ASC’s pronouns are they/them and the Chaos agents/Slippy use it/its?

So true! Worlds was the first time I saw tickets sell for less than $0.10/tix. The Super Slam tokens look great but are so narrow!

If the “intended effect” Bryan mentions was to make a decision the community likes, then this is sufficient. If the effect was to pull more players, it is not. It doesn’t help that LSS still hasn’t said what the goal of this policy is

This thread has reminded me not to engage on the topic

Did Bryan say that the policy was successful at bringing more people onto the competitive ladder? That isn’t in the tweet. Did he say this elsewhere?

The change being popular makes sense. The change being DIRECTLY responsible for increased attendance is more difficult for me to take at face value

Majin Bae is one of my locals; I get not wanting to need to beat a world-class player to win a store event, but that’s the game 🤷🏻‍♂️ If you’re competing but aren’t prepared to face better players, what’s the point?

I won’t die on this hill (again) but I find Bryan’s tweet insufficient explanation

It being overwhelmingly popular doesn’t surprise me; anyone who can’t win a PQ will support this because it doesn’t hurt them/actively benefits them

I’d love to hear more about this being the most attended season. Correlation isn’t causation and there could be many reasons more players attended PQs

Then make them play it out! They can only scoop for extra prizing if you let them

Were you on the call with us??? This is exactly right

I thought SAge would be the place for it but Aurora feels weak and Briar seems better off with Reaping Blade 🥺

Anyway, contributing my energy to overwhelm the haters

As a counterpoint, I’ve been playing Chane and he’s very fun. I want to keep playing him and so he shouldn’t be banned

Guardians are cracked, yellow 4-blocks are cracked

Oh it’ll definitely coalesce into a meta where certain decks are simply better than everything else, at which point the curation needs to kick in. I don’t want to judge to format now because Ira is too good and Wizard doesn’t exist

When will you accept that I’m always right?

I’m actually quite reasonable!

I’m out here playing Briar, I don’t even have blues to pitch

What do you think they’re using the downtime between reps for?
