GredGredmansson: oh it IS pick 2 for draft
BrowneePointz: Limited Archetypes: GB Disappear, WB Sneak, UR Artifacts, UG Mutagen, and RW Alliance/Go Wide
millenomi_Aura: serious card game! turtle power time
GredGredmansson: there is no time for fun or whimsy. now lets draft Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
BraveOthello: Well tortoises make some ... Interesting noises
TXC2: what do turtles sound like?
TXC2: !advice
LRRbot: Try pointing at it.
GredGredmansson: and ignores the legend rule
TXC2 points at turtle, turtle remains silent
GredGredmansson: because its first strike that reanimated creature can't be blocked
BraveOthello: @TXC2 SPEAK, CREATURE!
BrowneePointz: instant wheel real good
millenomi_Aura: well
millenomi_Aura: strong signals
millenomi_Aura: well. STRONG signals
GredGredmansson: time to go off meta everyone
Snowwraith: Unless it's a first strike creature you grab, that one would also deal damage.
EvilBadman: Leader's talent real good too
GredGredmansson: @Snowwraith actually i think the first striker will still deal normal damage if it enters attacking after the first strike damage phase? but i'd need to double check that
millenomi_Aura: yeah the rest is gravy
Brozard: EACH
iris_of_ether: EACH
Jethrain: "A spell". "Each". Woof
Snowwraith: @GredGredmansson Oh maybe. First strike is weird like that huh.
BrowneePointz: not TOTAL mv
hat_hair: Yeah, first strike creatures that enter after first strike deal "normal strike" damage
BrowneePointz: EACH mv

GredGredmansson: i found it.
EvilBadman: I just remember the n100 lads liking both of the white cards
tdapenguin: there is def space for flavor text on leonardo's technique :(
TXC2: Paul, the Leonardo of LRR
GredGredmansson: "The only creatures that assign combat damage in that step are the remaining attackers and blockers that had neither first strike nor double strike as the first combat damage step began, as well as the remaining attackers and blockers that currently have double strike. After that step, the phase proceeds to the end of combat step.
BrowneePointz: Leo Leads, Donnie does machines!
GredGredmansson: "Leonardo Leads, Donatello Does Machines"
BrowneePointz: Raph is cool but rude, and Mikey’s a party dude!
mrjujubeans: The card what does machines
GredGredmansson: WB is the main Sneak color pair
BrowneePointz: but yea just for clarification for streamers and chat, the archetypes are WB Sneak. GU Mutagen, UR Artifacts. RW Alliance Go Wide. GB Disappear
Seventy111: The beavers seem pretty great for sneaking
millenomi_Aura: go ninja go makes me smile every time
millenomi_Aura: cards you can hear
TXC2: also there's A LOT of hybrid mana in this set
EvilBadman: last ronin tech is three dudes on a sneak
GredGredmansson: ooh last ronin's technique creates a bunch of tokens
BrowneePointz: and yea a lot of hybrid
GredGredmansson: 1 mana flyer, good to sneak
BrowneePointz: Cori was in the Boros Alliance archetype
WiJohn: Cool, but crude?
TXC2: Dream beavers possibly one of the best black one drop creatures
GredGredmansson: sneaking the creature ALSO triggers it
Andymonium: love a li'l evasive dude
GredGredmansson: because the creature leaves the battlefield to go to your hand
BrowneePointz: there’s pizza in colorless and Jund and some food creatures in Golgari
djalternative: If you play the putrid pals after combat having used it to sneak earlier, it turns itself on
TXC2: Kathleen "two bodies" De Vere
Seventy111: Squirrelanoids is your 1/1 deathtouch!
GredGredmansson: 1/1 deathtouch
GredGredmansson: commons?
hat_hair: did bebop have landcycling?
djalternative: red/black splash white?
GredGredmansson: look at Last Ronin's Technique
TXC2: hat_hair yes
Seventy111: K's technique It's also a removal spell, right?
TXC2: Seventy111 sure is
GredGredmansson: yeah Karai's Technique is buff + removal
BrowneePointz: Also Kathleen as a Reading Enthusiast I highly recommend The Last Ronin. it’s truly an incredible comic. (and chat no spoiling on which turtle is the Ronin)
GredGredmansson: put in Bebop for the last card?
TXC2: maybe we run both foot ninja ?
Jethrain: the turtles are also ninjas
hat_hair: not a lot of turtles in black
TXC2: every set has a lot of removal it seems these days
kumatsu: I'm not on shift yet filling draft queues but I have a sealed deck on standby if nobody else is jumping in
GredGredmansson: if they block you punish them
GredGredmansson: and you'll be attacknig a lot for sneak
GredGredmansson: idk i think this is solid but its your deck
TXC2: destroy is NOT sacrifice
kumatsu: no, you still sac it
GredGredmansson: @kumatsu what do you sac?
GredGredmansson: !card Old Hob Alleycat Blues
LRRbot: Old Hob, Alleycat Blues [4R] | Legendary Creature — Cat Mutant Rebel [4/4] | At the beginning of combat on your turn, create a 2/2 red Mutant creature token. It gains haste until end of turn. Destroy it at the beginning of the next end step. / {1}{W}: Target attacking creature token gains indestructible until end of turn.
kumatsu: oh, lol, reading the card
kumatsu: I assumed it was sac end of turn cuz that's usually how it's templated
GredGredmansson: i've seen people not read the card the other way as well
kumatsu: I should finish my coffee I guess
GredGredmansson: "lol weird that it says destroy and not sac, why the crap does it say that" ignoring the last ability
TXC2: no sac = why the industructable matters
BrowneePointz: it’s Char! with upside!
TXC2: Chupside
QuixoticScrivener: @BrowneePointz laughs in Psionic Blast
GredGredmansson: potential target for Coning
GredGredmansson: bye muckman
TXC2: 0-2 milkshake here we come Kappa

iris_of_ether: The 90s were wild
Jethrain: there's another behind OP's name
UtilityPunk: This set is an extremely accurate depiction of the 90s
Rokudan96: a new mgt theme. must be a day ending in "Y"
djalternative: I wonder if there will be a secret unlockable on this board when it releases
BrowneePointz: oo we can kill Raph on blocks
DAC169: don't have to block if they're all tapped aipDerp
BrowneePointz: don’t forget to full control
GredGredmansson: why full control
BrowneePointz: Ope nvm
BrowneePointz: double strike only on attack
BrowneePointz: I’m dumb
djalternative: you haven't hit Voxy... yet
CastleOtranto: I didn't realize how much I wanted Ice Age sleeves until just now
BrowneePointz: first game with new set
Gaz_L: Is this sealed or draft?
BrowneePointz: sealed
TXC2: sealed
Jethrain: Sealed
djalternative: graham and Voxy tend to yell at each other on the phone when in early access
TXC2: game 1, still much magic to go
Gaz_L: Also yay a Jennika card :)
BrowneePointz: also you’d like Old Hob Kathleen. Street Gang Boss Cat Man. rough and tumble bad boy
Kid_Amn: Eager... beavers?
GredGredmansson: you have two 1 drops in the deck
GredGredmansson: and plenty of 2s
Gaz_L: If Kathleen was in TMNT she would be Hob-like for sure
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
TXC2: Arena can't give good hands to save it's program :p
BrowneePointz: No Kathleen is Sally Pride 100%
TXC2: the ooze: what if the ozolith, but worse, in EVERY way
GredGredmansson: you're dead that's what
DAC169: @TXC2 understatement
hat_hair: Time to swap the Ooze into all my brawl decks for graveyard hate
TXC2: not EVERY time.....
djalternative: So, is The Cloning of Shredder just going to forever live on the bottom of the deck?
GredGredmansson: well opp has graveyard hate
GredGredmansson: steal their mikey yeah
GredGredmansson: well no b/c its 5 to sneak
djalternative: moist attitude seems appropriate for a turtle
Gaz_L: This set reminded me about that TMNT Hades clone and i found out they added Alopex to it
GredGredmansson: sure yeah
GredGredmansson: guarantee shark shredder
GredGredmansson: you haven't played a land this turn have you?
BrowneePointz: but yea Kathleen is Sally Pride, a Punker and Iconoclast Lion Lady who sees she is being used by evil and says “screw that” and becomes Mayor of Mutant Town cuz damnit she’s gonna protect the oppressed and at risk even if and especially if she has to put boot to ass personally to do it.

evil_h2o_elf: interesting that old hob destroys, not sacrifices
GredGredmansson: @evil_h2o_elf read the other ability
GredGredmansson: its lethal
GredGredmansson: raph has menace

If it isn't a creature, it becomes a 0/0 Robot creature in addition to its other types.
BrowneePointz: Also fun tidbit for folks who may not be into the greater TMNT fandom stuff, for quite some time the Turtles have been considered PoC coded, since folks didn't seem to get the memo IDW had them get Holograms to blend in with the Power Rangers in a crossover that used their subconscious and their subconscious chose...you guessed it, 4 PoC(Black) Brothers
BrowneePointz: Also, April even from the original Eastman & Laird days was intentionally depicted as being amibugously Biracial
Seventy111: That April draws so many cards
TXC2: BrowneePointz wasn't she based on someone they knew or something?
BrowneePointz: She was based on Kevin Eastman's Girlfriend!
BrowneePointz: who was... *drumroll* BIRACIAL!
GredGredmansson: i still think its funny that there's a monored lifegain card
TXC2: BrowneePointz I knew it! :D
BrowneePointz: anyways Turtles have been very progressive on Diversity and Inclusion ever since their inception and it's one of the reasons I love them
GredGredmansson: !card does machines
LRRbot: Does Machines [1U] | Enchantment — Class | When this Class enters, mill two cards, draw two cards, then discard two cards. / {1}{U}: Level 2 / When this Class becomes level 2, return up to two target artifact cards from your graveyard to your hand. / {4}{U}: Level 3 / At the beginning of combat on your turn, put three +1/+1 counters on target artifact you control.

Seventy111: Wait is there no normal draft yet?
thedepthandbreadthofseth: That's the can do spirit.
BrowneePointz: it's a small set with 5 archetypes
BrowneePointz: so designed for Pick 2
Seventy111: Ooohh interesting, missed that
invickthus: who is this boy with his knife? I kinda love him.
TXC2: invickthus a tonberry from the FF set
MarkovDescendant: Stop trying to make [ick-two happen, WOTC
Jethrain: with a KNIFE
goombalax: who's got the clip
invickthus: a gradual menace is the new title of my autobio.
BrowneePointz: 9999 in fact
TXC2: he walks very slowly up to you then he STABS you with a KNIFE!
Redbassist: And then they STAB you
dolphgrim: Pick 2: for when you want twice as many cards and also half as many cards 😎
Shurtal: they will poke you, and you will die
Krillin_fan: you can always flee the battle!
FauksStarling: They're our little Salamander Sons and they can do no wrong.

TXC2: Invitare not yet
Gekyouryuu: TWO cool but rude?!
BrowneePointz: Cool but Rude is BONKERS

kumatsu: Sideboard
Seventy111: Pulls from your sideboard i believe
couchboyj: Sideboard
Kentosaurus: another card from your pool
TXC2: it uses sideboard
GredGredmansson: from the sealed pool
spikefeederalex: Robot Ninja is the thirteenest creature type
Mangledpixel: Tonberries are typically creatures that represent some sort of retribution or punishment, often doing more damages to player characters the more enemies the PCs have previously killed
BrowneePointz: still a 5/5 flier
Uniclonus: Savanti is nutty
GredGredmansson: chrome dome could be good if you have more artifact creatures, that's the UR archetype
Seventy111: Although avatar as a 5/5 flier for 5 is still pretty lorge
BrowneePointz: Hardened Scales
BrowneePointz: but on a body
GredGredmansson: Hardened Shells
freshmaker__: plus 1 plus 1 plus 1!
couchboyj: Hardened Shells
BrowneePointz: Voiced by Posty
Kentosaurus: crustacean commando lrrCrab
RatherLargeToad: Frog Stuff! Frog Stuff!
TXC2: and all at common
Seventy111: Not very good only has 2 keywords :(
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Is anyone else hearing Mondo Bongo by Joe Strummer?
TXC2: but vivid was last set?.....
RatherLargeToad: it Pizzid
Seventy111: Omni cheese pizza seems very necessary for everything pizza to work
dolphgrim: Skateboard™️
thedepthandbreadthofseth: I worship at the alter of the Omnicheese.
TXC2 places cheese on thedepthandbreadthofseth's head "cheese, my son"
dolphgrim: @TXC2 😂😂😂

Kentosaurus: that plan is... ambitious
EvilBadman: Turtle power is useless
KWardJenx: cheer100
GredGredmansson: @EvilBadman how so?
kristian_fischer: Evening, Cori and Kathleen and I will hear nothing against an everything pizza plan, thank you!
EvilBadman: it only buffs turtles
Jethrain: @GredGredmansson there's only two turtles in the deck
TXC2: hello kristian_fischer welcome
kristian_fischer: Thiccer Decc Plan.
Jethrain: Turtle power's an easy cut
EvilBadman: ^you have 2 turtles
TXC2: they'll learn the hard way now chat
GredGredmansson: lets find out how many games happen before its actually cut
GredGredmansson: we should play the mouser first
GredGredmansson: it would be able to attack turn 3
SolarBlitz1: Just got here, this music is upbeat!
sunmare_bahamut: Shamrock1500
GredGredmansson: or this, this works too
Jethrain: the classic "plus one +1/+1"
Dromos_GHG: the 2 companions feel appropriate to this set, a rock with a face and a M-ooze
EvilBadman: the mutagen generation is wild
TXC2: mutageneration
TXC2: damn instants, they're ruined magic!
TXC2: *they've
Seventy111: For a guy called The Royal Frog this guy's sure getting smacked by a frog
EvilBadman: will be a 6/5
GredGredmansson: well the final level is LOTS of counters
TXC2: level 2 is only for the sneak shenanigans deck
GredGredmansson: its not a token
tdapenguin: it would be interesting to track the number of pizza orders this year as this deck comes out and compare it to the order numbers of last year
tdapenguin: how many poeple are goign 'yeah, pizza sounds good'

Krillin_fan: Rey Fillet the immortal
SolarBlitz1: "You know him, you love him, it's Ray Fillet!"
MadWolf1290: !card everything pi

EvilBadman: I think you u/g mutagen goofs is a good time
Seventy111: Do you still need the mana fixer foods then?
TXC2: still running turtle power
GredGredmansson: 2 games without cutting turtle power
TXC2: it'll win us the game, watch Kappa
djalternative: just spam hello the whole time
Akaiatana: Quick! Shiv'm!
Gaz_L: Would the everything pizza have made sense as a wish target with the dragon for this deck?
djalternative: what kind of cheese is omni cheese? is it hard or soft? is it strong? is it funky? is it sharp?
Jethrain: Not without the mana base
Mangledpixel: djalternative yes to all
GredGredmansson: @djalternative "press any key to continue" "where's the any key"
kumatsu: I just lost with a deck that I used North Wind Avatar to grab the mythic Timetwister
TXC2: i'd say no, 'cause then you're still basically just running the one card
TXC2: the omnicheese changes what kind of cheese it is as you eat it
Seventy111: What a fool, now th jitte is redundant
Seventy111: *the
Akaiatana: We've seen it zero times in turtle
ElektroTal: GG friends!
EvilBadman: lol arcbound ravager
TXC2: GG ElektroTal
ElektroTal: i was flooded with choices, lol
BrowneePointz: also shoutouts to Shivan and LRR for not joining the negativity cloud around this set
BrowneePointz: Shivam being awesome as per usual
ElektroTal: the removal spell that did 6 dmg
ElektroTal: which i totally forgot to add to my deck
GredGredmansson: Embrace Brilliance or something?
ElektroTal: the dragon is so cool though
GredGredmansson: oh no Brilliance Unleashed
hat_hair: They're so friendly
DjGameKing: Love that animation for Michelangelo
Akaiatana: Turbofrog!
Seventy111: Woah where'd that frog come from
Akaiatana: @Seventy111 It's Wednesday!
torpidninja: Dumb question: is the background music Arena or yours? Because it kinda slaps
GredGredmansson: you can escape tunnel on a guy first and then buff it
TXC2: torpidninja Arena's
Jethrain: It's the music for this board
GredGredmansson: green pizza has flash so i can be used as a trick
TheMerricat: fast food.
hat_hair: They've made a lot of Flash Food this past year
BrowneePointz: Taco Bell feels like it has flash when you're sprinting to the bathroom
TheMerricat: You can sac the cat
fundabental: want to read the nunchaku novel
GredGredmansson: no we can't
Jethrain: it has summoning sickness
emilevitt: buffpupWave good afternoon!
TheMerricat: Ah
fundabental: too sick to sac
TXC2: hello emilevitt welcome
emilevitt: the set feelin very cowabunga??
GredGredmansson: summoning sickness
GredGredmansson: lrrJAMES
Seventy111: The other ability only works for *other* creatures, or tokens, so not with the pizzas
Akaiatana: Famous XKCD author Rayndal Man-Ray
BrowneePointz: Help Us Herman!
TXC2: lrrCrab
GredGredmansson: "spongeboy me bob, i think opponent's got lethal on board, agagagagag."
TheMerricat: They copied the nunchuck you didn't know they could.
GredGredmansson: yes
Krillin_fan: perhaps the game wins were the friends we made along the way?
GredGredmansson: we won one game with the first deck
UtilityPunk: Limited!
Akaiatana: Is there a 'canon' year for this set?
Seventy111: that's pretty gross actually
GredGredmansson: so this set is a lot more combo based than i thought
Snowwraith: @Akaiatana It's pulling from multiple incarnations.
GredGredmansson: or we are playing all the combo players
GredGredmansson: @Akaiatana what do you mean by "canon year"
emilevitt: technodrome!!! buffpupPoint
djalternative: let's go blue red
hat_hair: That's what I said when I saw that movie, too
Akaiatana: @GredGredmansson Tech level of the regular populace, fashion, etc
TheBattleOfHastings subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 60 months!
TheBattleOfHastings: 60 months! 5 yr hype.
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, TheBattleOfHastings! (Today's storm count: 14)
TXC2: 1987 ?
hat_hair: It's a bit more Mazinger I think
Akaiatana: Get in the robot, Shingetter
GredGredmansson: @Akaiatana well there's no story so it doesn't really matter
BrowneePointz: uhhhh 1988 I think
Akaiatana: @GredGredmansson Ah, k
hat_hair: But both Mazinger and getter are much older than TMNT
TXC2: "is it Pizzaable, it is not?"
djalternative: I'd play both buzz bots
djalternative: okay. you can def do artifact stuff with technodrome
spinebustertee: greaser aliens from Dimension X!
Brozard: Point Squaaaaad
hat_hair: They show up super early in the 80s cartoon, like episode 2 or 3
TheMerricat: @LoadingReadyRun so Krang specifically was created for the 1987 cartoon. I don't know when that art specifically was created.
BrowneePointz: yea Krang was from the 87 cartoon first
jarblesthegrey: battle of hastings??? 1066ad lol
Seventy111: Avatar can always go grab the big time spiral lol
GredGredmansson: i think ideally you want them for a mutagen target but i still think its generally good
3schr: I'd leave Krang in the sideboard to be grabbed by the North Wind Avatar
3schr: 9 mana is hard
TXC2: 9 mana = reanimation target :p
djalternative: you might be correct but this is early access day
hat_hair: @LoadingReadyRun So looking it up, all the 1987 character designs were by Peter Chung aka the Aeon Flux guy
djalternative: this is the day you do the stupid thing
GredGredmansson: renet is a turnaround
jarblesthegrey: can anyone tell me why they said "battle of hastings" lol
jarblesthegrey: I'm so cornfused about that still....
3schr: North Wind still only brings it to your hand. You still have to cast it
TheMerricat: Before the cartoon, the comics had Utroms. But by and large the comics were black and white and the 'bodies' looke more like the guy on the left of this picture - https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/NChhtoJzbDufIgQRA5i5LylCRBOgJrFyZcMbJ8J3Fby-V-OWO_HMgeU-i4Ry2mUuqqY7fr43JtVfKg2zt4Plilexf6A4Lmb2UIVAPHr9WNuJ14IK-ktaeFm3kX-tbxqrIAfPibQDu8I=w2400
jarblesthegrey: oh, awesome! yes of course. I am incapable of forgetting the random trivial fact that it occurred in 1066AD. someday? that is going to come in handy, I just KNOW it!
TXC2: the battle of Hastings aka the reason why English is even more messed up as a language
Akaiatana: Thought: A land called Hastings that gives haste.
BrowneePointz: that was Agincourt right?
BrowneePointz: or am I misremembering
jarblesthegrey: was this sealed or draft, btw?
jarblesthegrey: fair, there has to be 8 of you trying to draft I suppose haha
BrowneePointz: 4
BrowneePointz: this is a pick 2 format @jarblesthegrey
jarblesthegrey: niiice. and that's why you run both despite legend rule
Mangledpixel: that's its flavour
djalternative: oh wait. you could've tapped the technodrome then untapped it with the surveilance cam
jarblesthegrey: oh geeeze...really? ugh lol I hope there will be regular? or I guess turtles is just 'pick two' like arachnid-person was?
Mangledpixel: cos it took ages to actually show up in the cartoon
Akaiatana: Why go to the drome when they can go to the dome?
hat_hair: I believe they have accounced that normal draft will exist in the full release
TheMerricat: So chat, I really only started playing Magic via Arena a year ago... so asking the more experienced players but... does it seem like there are a lot more aggressive removals these days? I feel like every game I play the OP has at least two removals in their starting hand if not board wipes and it's starting to get frustrating. :D
GredGredmansson: yeah the cam could have untapped it
djalternative: @TheMerricat better creatures means better removal. you're not imagining it. that said, FF still had A LOT of removal
torpidninja: If you sac'd the Sewer-veillance with the technodrome you could then untap it
jarblesthegrey: some sets had barely any in the last year, some were very heavy; the weight/amount of spot removal in a limited format informs how to draft that format!
TXC2: TheMerricat depends on the format, but yes
jarblesthegrey: any thoughts on the "funny colors" of this limited set so far?
jarblesthegrey: (asking streamers)
BrowneePointz: "funny colors?"
Jobot180 subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 126 months!
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, Jobot180! (Today's storm count: 15)
jarblesthegrey: yeah like how for 3-5 sets in a row, goglargi (green black/GB) were the nuts, i.e., the funny colors; izzet for avatar;5 color dragfons/globes for dragonstorm
TheMerricat: !card mind transfer protocol
LRRbot: Mind Transfer Protocol [2U] | Instant | Until end of turn, target artifact or creature becomes an artifact creature with base power and toughness 4/5. / Draw a card.
BrowneePointz: idk jarbles it's minute 0 of the format.
jarblesthegrey: the best colors, the fought-over colors, etc., aka, the "funny" colors
TheMerricat: I have a feeling I'm really going to despise sneak.
fundabental: might be a little slow for Magic
jarblesthegrey: how is sneak different from ninjutsu? or is it not different and they just went with an easier word...
idontgetmyrealname: i already hate ninjitsu so
djalternative: you're the only person I've ever seen call them "the funny colors"
idontgetmyrealname: @jarblesthegrey can be put on non-creatures
TXC2: Sneak is gonna do nothing for me, and be a total blow up when Opp uses it :p
torpidninja: Absolutely. The fact that Technodrome is a creature and not a vehicle (both flavor and gameplay) is ludicrous
djalternative: @jarblesthegrey it's a cast instead of an ability so it can go on more card type
FauksStarling: @jarblesthegrey Sneak isn't just for creatures.
glitched_goddess: technodrome is very flavorful. it’s slow, strong, but pretty easy to deal with lol
jarblesthegrey: could easily be a regionalism/colloquilism (*I'm from Pittsburgh, and we talk funny*)
BrowneePointz: Kathleen and Cori, FNPF idea for a future time. a Super Sealed of Spider-Man and TMNT with like 2 or 3 packs of each
TheMerricat: @jarblesthegrey The primary difference is in the year I've been playing, I've seen like two people use ninjutsu on me. :P
GredGredmansson: @jarblesthegrey sneak is cast and can only be done in declare blockers. ninjutsu is activated and can be done any time in combat.
djalternative: If Arena doesn't do it as an event, there has to be an FNPF where the gang does New York block constructed with SPM TMT and MSH
BrowneePointz: err not super sealed, Super Draft*
jarblesthegrey: thx chat for the dissertation! (non sarcastic, I didn't know, now I do) - mark the annuls, a twitch chat was HELPFUL
TXC2: chat's allowed to be helpful to other chatters, chat is NEVER* helpful to the streamer.
jarblesthegrey: so sneak is a cast, and thus, can be counterspelled, whereas you need like ability-countering to stop a Kaito
TXC2: jarblesthegrey correct
djalternative: @TXC2 I prefer to be actively unhelpful if I can
jarblesthegrey: @TXC2 BAHAHAHAH
jarblesthegrey: just what you needed, a mountain! lol
EvilBadman: OH no
djalternative: expect a phone call
EvilBadman: I saw his deck, if it's the same one
TXC2: Gods we'll never hear the end of this :p
BrowneePointz: yea but it's Jordan
Akaiatana: Can you say "A kingdom of cards" a few times?
BrowneePointz: you're supposed to dunk on your friends
TXC2: !ck
LRRbot: Card Kingdom: C.A.R.D.S.
Spades_Slicc: Okay but spicy oatmeal pizza actually sounds good AF
goombalax: wut
BrowneePointz: I'm just worried the Oats will dry out the pizza
BrowneePointz: cuz they'll suck up the grease
James_the_Dabbler: I want pizza dough with oats in it
Akaiatana: Leave the oats to soak overnight
glitched_goddess: spicy oatmeal is like “yo dawg I heard you like carbs”
Spades_Slicc: That's why the oats go under the cheese and soak in the sauce
James_the_Dabbler: and then spicy marinara
jarblesthegrey: I could make a yummy spicy oatmeal pizza; I would make the "dough" out of a crispity crunchy oatmeal bar type consistency
djalternative: you can cast rennet with the pizza
jarblesthegrey: and it would eat more like a flatbread
GredGredmansson: yeah pizza mana fixes
SolarBlitz1: We could filter through the cheese pizza for rennet I think?
freshmaker__: i have had spag bol pizza before. it was pretty great and I didn't need to eat again for so long.
BrowneePointz: Gender? I hardly Kingdom hearts!
jarblesthegrey: "get gendered" is wild lol
Scarbble: get gendered, NERD
jarblesthegrey: I love it
TXC2: Gender? I hardly know him
TXC2: freshmaker__ I think that would give enough carbs to run a marathon on :p
Athelgar: spicy oatmeal pizza, but its a soft oatmeal cookie with some kind of spicy honey and candied peppers on it
UtilityPunk: @Athelgar Pizza is a type of cheese cookie
GredGredmansson: oh we can counter that
kynelwynn: Is James in the building or what?
GredGredmansson: but we don't need to
Athelgar: @UtilityPunk oatmeal cheesecake cookie, like a jammy dodger but with cheesecake
Akaiatana: "I'll take a slice... AND EAT IT"
TXC2: can a pizza be cooked twice in order to legally make it a biscuit?
UtilityPunk: So many opponents lrrSCOOP ing when I Stifle their fetchlands lrrLUL
Akaiatana: Deep voice: "You Krang?"
Cptasparagus: who up kranging
djalternative: how rude
TXC2: indeed it was not
RayFK: My pool was mean, that is fair
SolarBlitz1: Those black white are looking nice
hat_hair: This is a very B/W set of cards
Jethrain: it's beginning to look a lot like orzhov
GredGredmansson: whiteblack run back
glitched_goddess: already better than last pool lol
EvilBadman: @RayFK I sent the pic to cori just now with your comment ;)
Bruceski: Turtle Man with a Turtle Van
RayFK: @EvilBadman Monster
djalternative: and you can watch the action news crew on channel six
Dromos_GHG: I missed a lot of the PPR so this stream is def helping hype me up for the pre-release this weekend!
RayFK: Yeah but I could CLONE mine
glitched_goddess: everything pizza isn’t awful but I think it’s kinda not worth the wubrg cost lol
freshmaker__: oh damn. a veritable pizza party
GredGredmansson: do we have rocksteady for the combo i wonder
GredGredmansson: oh we DO
jarblesthegrey: are there any/many multicolored cards
hat_hair: The perfect number
jarblesthegrey: (in your pool)
TXC2: the south wind avatar?
TXC2: :p
Jethrain: there's still time to cancel
GredGredmansson: yeah those would have shown up
Cptasparagus: children are germ machines
GredGredmansson: wait until opps turn to decide
jarblesthegrey: yeay mirror match game 1 lol
jarblesthegrey: but it has bad touch
jarblesthegrey: your whole team has bad touch
jarblesthegrey: lol
Spades_Slicc: Muscle Touch?
TXC2: Ask your doctor if touching is right for you
Akaiatana: Inverse of the muscle-touch crew: A pair of touchy muscle.
jarblesthegrey: we're not dead yet! we're not dead yet! *a la "they're not that drunk" in Beerfest*
BrowneePointz: and regardless of the beats
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
BrowneePointz: uhhhh set seems sweet?
kynelwynn: Beaver into Oroku Saki into Nameless Inversion kinda won them that game
TXC2: "I'm not dead yet!" she yelled defiantly, as the train visibly hurtled towards her
TXC2: !mtgtmt
GredGredmansson: yeah seems like wb really wants to be aggressive to get the sneak online
TXC2: darn
jarblesthegrey: hey at least shuffler isn't being mean, oh wait...
djalternative: I'll keep this on in the background but I'm off to read chapter 1094 of a 1500 chapter book
TXC2: !mtgtmnt
LRRbot: For more information on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, including a full image gallery, where you can find your local prerelease, and where to pre-order the set, click here! https://mtg.social/TMNTxLRR
Scarbble: i am wondering how long it will take me to not say 'foot head... quarters'
dragonwarrior8484: Good afternoon everyone
TXC2: hello dragonwarrior8484 welcome
jarblesthegrey: hey chat, watch it, bordering on being helpful to streamer there lol
jarblesthegrey: dino commander seems excellent
dragonwarrior8484: I getting back into magic of the gathering now I been away since 2001
jarblesthegrey: though I'd wager there's no other dinos lol
DjGameKing: Just a smidge changed
jarblesthegrey: @dragonwarrior8484 get ready for a new set every 90ish days...
TXC2: cards have TEXT now
Iperithon: Just a reminder, damage is no longer on the stack, mana burn does not exist, and... uhh
TherapyforNarwhals: Make sure there's only one side of the card
ElektroTal: you were freeeeeee
koalki23: Bloomburrow brought me back from 1999 so it's still pretty close to the game I left
jarblesthegrey: yeah there's 1/1 fliers with lifelink for one mana...at common
UtilityPunk: @TXC2 Flavour text occasionally shows up for throwback thursdays
dragonwarrior8484: I have cards real life since 1998
TXC2: UtilityPunk yeah, once in a blue moon :p
ElektroTal: 1998? a newcomer, i see
djalternative: the most difficult opponent is yourself is some bullshit splinter would say as the turtles are actively fighting a new mutant shredder
dragonwarrior8484: I have volcanic dragon 4/4 year halo card in 1998 era
jarblesthegrey: I was out after Theros, until DMU - they gave a name/made a mechanic for having different basic land types, I am a huge 5-color BS fan so I just had to get into that set lol
jarblesthegrey: @djalternative BAHAHAHA
djalternative: maybe draft will treat you better now
Akaiatana: Button idea: Start with the man in the mirror match
jarblesthegrey: avatar was a brilliant limited format, for SURE
Scarbble: final fantasy limited was a banger too tbh
djalternative: I'd honestly recommend foundations to start back up. Avatar after that
BrowneePointz: Foundations and FF are great to get into as well
Akaiatana: Now we have seen An chovie
jarblesthegrey: foundations: aka, modern but standard core set 2024 lolol
Bruceski: Started with Kathleen and Cori, James and Graham are coming up soon, maybe they'll get draft to fire, streaming through the whole day. Turtle Magic.
jarblesthegrey: FF draft > FF sealed
Scarbble: @jarblesthegrey agreed
BrowneePointz: or, if you want a set that's like a core set but in universe, Bloomburrow
dragonwarrior8484: I usually play my classic swamp deck
jarblesthegrey: avatar was legit great no matter - you can win games of avatar draft play without drawing/seeing or even HAVING boms
jarblesthegrey: bombs
DjGameKing: This music slaps
TXC2: Foundation: a great core set that has omniscience for some godless reason :p
hat_hair: under where
jarblesthegrey: I hate when there's a background with no interaction/clickable stuff like come on, who needs flowy/shimmery water
BrowneePointz: for Kathleen, the music is like Avengers adjacent rad Guitar Rock
jarblesthegrey: waves of grain waving
loufghyslaufey: How dare the Arena team even... "Try!" or something.
BrowneePointz: lots of distorted guitars and sounds video gamey
jarblesthegrey: even legally distinct Clue the set had clickable stuff in background
BrowneePointz: Oh wait! Koya can flicker our Leo and Shredder!
loufghyslaufey: Or idk, Arena promote a less grindy system? MindManners TPFufun katesSip
kynelwynn: biggus piggus
Iperithon: Inside you are 2 2/2s, you may only block one of htem
UtilityPunk: Life lessons: Eat your pizza before someone else does
EthirealPlayer: I blame LRR for making me respond "Bigger than before" whenever I here someone say big in the background
kynelwynn: Just ralized that the new Bebop and Rocksteady work great wth Lorwyn's Changelings for complete unblockability
jarblesthegrey: two dubs? legendary
TXC2: 2 victories in 3 hours, sounds like my kind of pace in limited :p
BrowneePointz: anyways, Kathleen if you like good stories, check out THe Last Ronin!
loufghyslaufey: I mean, its been nigh 3 hours StinkyCheese katesFine katesGigl
BrowneePointz: it's a very good comic regardless of being TMNT!
TXC2: it got what plants crave
iris_of_ether: OH NO
Akaiatana: It has what non-plant Corianders don't crave!
iris_of_ether: Somewhere on my computer I have a video file of a Cotton Eye Joe/Sephiroth mashup I found
Jethrain: AND??
DjGameKing: Damn
DjGameKing: Mikey got exploded
BrowneePointz: the way you say Leo's name makes me think of a bit from the last Turtles movie Kathleen
TXC2: WotC needs to stop printing Konas :p
GredGredmansson: just like in canon
BrowneePointz: "We'll just put our names, Michael Angelo. But that means i'd be Leo Nardo!"
BrowneePointz: HAHAHA NARDO!
DjGameKing: And yeah, it does say "and/or." Absolutely ridiculous
Akaiatana: Tap Mikey for Movie recommendations.
kynelwynn: @Akaiatana Sadly he's giving that up
Akaiatana: !! Aww
DjGameKing: Pizza face!
GredGredmansson: that can kill the token at least
DjGameKing: Pizza Face do be kind of nasty and not in terms of the art. Card is pretty strong
BalthusHomewood: True
Mattmitchell45: Would have been a blast to get a Below the Omenpaths version of these cards
Mattmitchell45: All the Turtle planes
EvilBadman: Smash cut to friend zone "So should we go in?" "Nah."
BalthusHomewood: Heroes in a Half-Shell: Turtle Planar
TXC2: all the turtles in the sewers of Ravnica and New Capena
BalthusHomewood: ANCHOVIES l 👀
GredGredmansson: oh we can pay for the permaremoval
Mattmitchell45: The extended Towershell family
TXC2: !card koya
LRRbot: Did you mean: Heiko Yamazaki, the General; Koya, Death from Above
TXC2: !card koya, death
LRRbot: Koya, Death from Above [2W] | Legendary Creature — Mutant Ninja Bird [2/1] | Flying / When Koya enters, exile up to one other target creature. At the beginning of the next end step, you may pay {3}{B}. If you don't, return that card to the battlefield under its owner's control.
FauksStarling: I like the thought of you telling the News Crew to get out of THEIR van so they can jump in the TURTLE van
Mattmitchell45: Wait, Cars drive Cars in Cars?
Spades_Slicc: "did you see who was driving that weird van?" "Yeah it was an entire action news crew in their own van"
freshmaker__: real new sentences being invented every day.
BalthusHomewood: A Tu-Tu Flier
djalternative: have you simply tried eating pizza face?
BrowneePointz: a Pauper COmmander too!
couchboyj: Vanception
EvilBadman: The pizza face that launched 1000 out of context pictures
Akaiatana: They're Puppesteering
TXC2: EvilBadman and new slack emotes
dsil88: Beep beep, outta the way my vans driving my other van
Bruceski: You ever been a teenager with a weird number of cars and people and someone said "guys, I have an idea"? That's how a news crew winds up driving another van.
DjGameKing: Ah, they found an answer
TXC2: Bruceski the key phrase is "watch this!" that's what makes the "magic" happen Kappa
Akaiatana: I had a fire alarm earlier. It happens
DjGameKing: Win by rope? 👀
TXC2: Opp on mobile and had a signal drop, a problem arena has NEVER fixed
GredGredmansson: *gasp*, the Last Ronin was actually rocksteady!
UtilityPunk: lrrLUL Cam's too polite to kick you out
TXC2: what a tweeest!
GredGredmansson: didn't you say earlier "if they were here they'd let us know" or something
TXC2: thanks for streaming Cori and Kathleen
dragonwarrior8484: I can't afford the cards on game too much to buy them
TXC2: Hello Cameron
Strebenherz: Howdy Cam
Jethrain: Pick-4 draft would be a wild next step
DjGameKing: Let's gooooo Cam! :D
TXC2: get it out of the way good and early
ghyllnox: On brand
UtilityPunk: Good, howdy
djalternative: let's do a pick 16 draft
dsil88: Cam you missed the Van driving the other Van
TheWooglie: cards
adambomb625: Nickelodeon slime
djalternative: based on previous results? disappointment
Jethrain: Krang!
Strebenherz: Who were your favorite of the TMNT Cam?
SkaespearesBoys: Really good rares
djalternative: green has been very strong today?
SolarBlitz1: These are all really good
BrowneePointz: you enjoy Baxter and Mikey duh
djalternative: is it the one with glasses?
QTL7: it's mikey i knew it
TXC2: is it Krang? Kappa
dsil88: He's a Donatello guy for sure
SolarBlitz1: And it's Casey Jones I knew it
EvilBadman: Green/Black bombs seems fun
Spades_Slicc: Def Krang
SkaespearesBoys: Definetely leonardo
Strebenherz: Leonardo?
GredGredmansson: commune with bunga
petey_vonwho: Cam is definitely a Bebop and Rocksteady fan
couchboyj: I've got a better question, which turtle do you see when you look at the set symbol? :p
Jethrain: Graham's performance of pizza face was a thing of abject beauty
TXC2: so he's 5 foods
RatherLargeToad: He’s 5 food at once
GredGredmansson: there's a Punk Frog card at common too
SkaespearesBoys: Punk frogs also got a card
GredGredmansson: !card Punk Frogs
LRRbot: Punk Frogs [3{G/U}{G/U}] | Creature — Frog Mutant Rebel [4/5] | Ward {3}
brainbosh: I think almost all of the original characters made it in somewhere
TXC2: become one with the bunga
RatherLargeToad: Was hoping Genghis would get a rare, but I can work with the uncommon for the ninth Frogmander deck
Jundinator: Hi Cam. How is set?
Jundinator: Is it hot garbage?
Jundinator: Uh have you not seen the Profs video. Its really bad actually
couchboyj: Early reports say "Not as bad as Spiderman", to step over gaming's lowest bar.
RatherLargeToad: set seems good and the Arena team put in a ton more work on it than they did for Omenpaths
GredGredmansson: @Jundinator that's one guy.
Iperithon: removal seems light in your green/black
EvilBadman: @Jundinator Great energy to come into a streamer event with
Jundinator: @couchboyj Uh according to prof. Its just as bad
TheMadChicken: @Jundinator how about play it and make your own mind up?
RatherLargeToad: I don’t actually think Prof likes anything anymore
BrowneePointz: ^
GredGredmansson: when did prof become Lord Grand High Arbiter of taste
dsil88: My gut says this set has enough hybrid for good Mono color limited decks
TheWooglie: How can you judge a set before it's even out?
Mattmitchell45: Prof loved the hell out of Lorwyn
brainbosh: a card you can always get back seems great in limited. 5 mana is a lot at once tho
GredGredmansson: @TheWooglie clearly b/c prof said so, pay attention Kappa
TheMadChicken: lorwynn's draft archetypes were just as constrained
koalki23: Prof was more just down on the small size sets in general. Fewer bigger sets would probably do better for the game and all else was my take away
SolarBlitz1: The design space of small sets is what I think is Profs bigger complaint, is what I took away from his video.
EvilBadman: @koalki23 And UB
Mattmitchell45: I hadn't thought about how The Hobbit pretty much has to be a smaller set than LOTR because they went outside of the three books for content
RatherLargeToad: Lorwyn was very constrained even with more cards. I suspect this limited format will be healthier
Athelgar: ya, the issue he presents is with the way UB sets are being designed and the implications it has on the gameplay to satisfy monetization, not that TMNT is the problem.
Ktolos: Do you reckon that Samurai Pizza Cats could get a full UB set or would it just be a secret lair?
Mattmitchell45: Putrid Pals seems great for blocking desperation
Athelgar: @Ktolos I think we;re more likely to get Thundercats before SPC
TXC2: it finally stopped raining here today, being raining every day since Jan 10th :p
WumboWings: I’m really excited for Weather Maker in my charge counter deck. Seems like another just fun card when you can put the counters on it apart from just its normal way.
BrowneePointz: anyways my one big gripe is people being disingenuous drawing false parallels between this and Spider-Man with "ahaha NYC block" when the way this set presents New York is SO fantastical and whimsical it's barely recognizable as "Pop Culture NY"
GredGredmansson: no you tapped right, you just were limited on black sources
BrowneePointz: It feels more like SNC meets NEO
djalternative: yeah. you tapped right. just needed 3 black
TheMadChicken: I absolutely love the character variety in this compared to spider-man. The mutants make things way more interesting
TheMadChicken: flavorwise
GredGredmansson: the thing i miss most about the leak, was the lack of Maro Clues
jarblesthegrey: had to pause for the cuase lmfao
GredGredmansson: I guarantee one of them would have been "a monored card that gains life"
RatherLargeToad: most of these cards would not feel out of place in the Simic or maybe on Kamegawa, so I don’t get the flavor complaints
GredGredmansson: @RatherLargeToad its not even flavor complaints anymore, it's devolved to its most primal form
TXC2: "monored card that gains life" would have had people freaking out, and then it turns out to be a food card
GredGredmansson: @TXC2 that damages yourself first
TheMadChicken: raph and mikey are busted
Gekyouryuu: when last I looked we were Cori and Cathleen. when did we become Cameron?
GredGredmansson: maybe half hour ago
jarblesthegrey: bahaha
RatherLargeToad: that’s fair
TXC2: Gekyouryuu about 15 mins ago ?
Gekyouryuu: ty
GredGredmansson: common, uncommon, rare, or mythic
djalternative: I mean, that’s been a problem since Brother’s War with the three Urzas and Midgard
jarblesthegrey: I refused to accept the LOTR was standard legal for like, ever...
TXC2: like it makes sense to see the character's journey on cards, but yeah, it can get REAL confusing names wise
djalternative: Mishras*
Ktolos: Aragorn winner of games, rather then Aragorn broken bomb perhaps :p
GredGredmansson: @jarblesthegrey lotr was only modern legal but yeah
Gekyouryuu: that's the one thing Final Fantasy had going for it is almost no one got a second card unless they were in commander, the bonus sheet, or both, and those are easier distinctions to make.
jarblesthegrey: well there's folks in my circle/at my lgs who vehemently disagree, and are certain it was standard legal...which made it harder
Gekyouryuu: the one thing in that regard, I mean. there was a lot more going for it. FF was a great set.
TXC2: FF pulling from 15 games instead of one game/show helpped
GredGredmansson: 16 even
GredGredmansson: though in actually TMNT is like, 6-8 different media forms mixed together
TXC2: GredGredmansson oh yeah :p
TXC2: GredGredmansson still the same 6 ish characters though
Mattmitchell45: Star Trek is going to give the format so many Naval Officers
TheMadChicken: like i said, busto LUL
xVoxtric: I'm just a spectator and I sure feel like I "experienced" that card
SolarBlitz1: Oh yeah Raph and Mickey is "Take 7 + my next creature"
xVoxtric: I'll be ready to get got by that
Gekyouryuu: I think I'm gonna want Raph & Mikey for a Tifa, Martial Artist deck
RatherLargeToad: @jarblesthegrey I think that was a fairly common mistake and is one of the reasons they used to justify making these sets for Standard since the new players wanted to use them in Standard anyway
TXC2: yeah, how many episode titles do we get as card names?
Athelgar: I cant wait for the saga that phases out a legendary and comes back with a cool flute
Ktolos: for star trek surely we get Earl Gray hot (maybe a reskin of hot soup)
TheMadChicken: im very curious what the "red shirt" card will do
Uniclonus: Star Trek set needs Mariachi Q
GredGredmansson: @TheMadChicken that's the set's token.
couchboyj: Bashir that partners with Garrick or O'Brian
Gekyouryuu: oh! you know what I want from Star Trek, besides a card called Experience Bij? a kill spell that's just dropping a bridge on someone
Mindfire13: My hope for the Star Trek set is a Garak card that has 0 power, skulk, and an ability that can give him power after blockers are declared.
TheMadChicken: or it evolves based on dmg dealt to it
Juliamon: There is exactly one thing I want from Star Trek, and that's an Odo bucket
Mattmitchell45: I hope Q is just a better Chulane
GredGredmansson: i don't think i actually saw all that much Star Trek
Datnade012: is the star trek set just TOS, or all of Trek?
TheWooglie: @Juliamon just the bucket or with odo in?
Mr_Horrible: "I'm gonna play some Cube." "Oh cool, you're gonna draft power?" "No, my commander is the Cube."
GredGredmansson: @Datnade012 all of trek
TheMadChicken: i think trek has the depth to create a decent set like FF did
Juliamon: TheWooglie Yes
TXC2: Datnade012 all of trek as far as we know
jarblesthegrey: I hope there's a white or green instant combat trick that's named a one-liner of Q
Datnade012: @GredGredmansson awesome, thank you
Datnade012: @TXC2 cool, thank you
GredGredmansson: we could get, like, Lower Decks rep potentially
djalternative: there ARE two people in the office you can ask about the borg cube, Cam.
TheMadChicken: tribbles will just be scuteswarm right?
Gekyouryuu: legendary spaceship Borg Cube, whenever something deals damage to you, it gets a counter that makes it so it no longer deals damage to you or your permanents again, because every method against the borg only worksonce
Athelgar: "Oh no! It's the Enterprise!"
Mindfire13: Odo better have Changeling
bazman5000: @Gekyouryuu Lol
jarblesthegrey: it's no good, is an understatement lol
TheMadChicken: tech the frog
Mattmitchell45: As someone who has only seen Star Trek: Lower Decks, do the Pakleds actually feature heavily in any of the mainline shows?
TXC2: bolt the bird
GredGredmansson: Shred the Fred
Iperithon: Always bolt the bird
goombalax: i would
sunmare_bahamut: q is one few chater in UB that can be lore wise a planewalker The Traver can be one too
Mindfire13: Fry the Frog
bazman5000: @Gekyouryuu Comply
Kentosaurus: frack the frog
Ktolos: always sword the frog
dolphgrim: @Mindfire13 💯
TXC2: Mattmitchell45 no, they show up in One TNG episode
glitched_goddess: trill symbiotes are just licids
GredGredmansson: Q is just a functional reprint of the Discord MLP card
Datnade012: Cameron, your howling banshees look amazing btw
Mr_Horrible: @glitched_goddess there's no way they're cool enough to bring back licids, even for the bit (but god I want them to)
drcthulu: Didn't mark rosewater say that Universes beyond don't get plainswalkers for lore reasons
Mattmitchell45: @TXC2 They just need a Bulk and Skull-level villain for Lower Decks :P
djalternative: Q should be a reprint of Space Beleren
GredGredmansson: @drcthulu i think so yes
dolphgrim: Did I hear the Hannah Barbera Cartoon Sandwich bite sound?
TXC2: Mattmitchell45 exactly
GredGredmansson: like Gilgamesh could have been a valid one for the FF set
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
Garbage_Collectr: "Should have Cowabunga'd in advance" new MTG sentence
glitched_goddess: yes
Gekyouryuu: what was it again? my memory sucks
GredGredmansson: oh i didn't remember that one
TXC2: it took two passes to get it, but yes
Gekyouryuu: oh, that's EXCELLENT
Mr_Horrible: good bit
GredGredmansson: yes that's the one
Bruceski: I did catch that, yes
Spades_Slicc: Now say the deck name with the proper cadence
GredGredmansson: someone had to point it out to me but i got there
AugmentingPath: mardu midrange value creatures (turtles in the half shell - turtle power)
AugmentingPath: heroes in the half shell, whoops
Mr_Horrible: "Can't believe they printed this; kinda fucked"
xVoxtric: M&M's in the VC
Mindfire13: Thats a great deck name. And a fun idea for a commander deck.
Mr_Horrible: clappi
TheWooglie: waywar19Clap
jayhawk515 subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 9 months!
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, jayhawk515! (Today's storm count: 16)
glitched_goddess: “Please Clap”
Garbage_Collectr: insert "please clap" sound bite
AwaruaBoy: so is this set good?
Garbage_Collectr: da,mot g;otcjed ;p;
couchboyj: seabatClap
Garbage_Collectr: wow, *damnit glitched
TheWooglie: Garbage_Collectr do you have a cat?
TheMadChicken: @AwaruaBoy i think it looks fun
TXC2: AwaruaBoy seems ok so far
Garbage_Collectr: no lol, just wasn't looking and off by a key on my keyboard
glitched_goddess: it’s better than Spider-Man? lol
rosesmcgee: If you're trying to fill out your turtle typal deck, have I got news for you
Mr_Horrible: ninjutsu was definitely an under-utilized space that a lot of players loved
Mr_Horrible: which I assume is why they've done 2 iterations on it in the last 2 UBs
AwaruaBoy: @GredGredmansson low bar
SolarBlitz1: Michelangeo to make the mutagen, pop it to trigger Krang is a fun little play
Strebenherz: Sorry for slow reply, driving. It was a good deck name Cam. Gave me a chuckle
Mr_Horrible: you can literally send your creatures to a farm upstate
TheMadChicken: we were making these exact jokes when UB was announced
Mattmitchell45: Hell yeah, Northhampton!
Mr_Horrible: where there's lots of room to run and play
TheMadChicken: and it has become reality
Mindfire13: Somehow this set feel more "Magic" than Spiderman. Maybe thats because the actual characters are on Arena.
TXC2: every set we come closer and closer to that one ProZD skit
glitched_goddess: I think sneak is better because it can have interaction, is less screwy, and can be used on more than just ninja
Strebenherz: Late reply to star trek set
GredGredmansson: @Mindfire13 you mean telling me turning the established characters into in-universe ones didn't work?
Strebenherz: Just hoping it cools yknow
AugmentingPath: oh. A magic card set in a town I've lived in
Strebenherz: Cooks*
Mr_Horrible: @Mindfire13 it *seems* unlikely that we'll get the hot mess that was Spider-Man production again, but never say never I suppose
Garbage_Collectr: @glitched_goddess just need an arena card where "all creatures are ninjas and have ninjutsu 1UB"
TXC2: omenpaths didn't work because it was rushed AF
RatherLargeToad: I’d be surprised if they print a card with Ninjitsu again. Sneak is just cleaner and easier to balance
AwaruaBoy: finally I can pair Garruk with Michelangelo
rosesmcgee: The little animations are good
Kentosaurus: rad animations are back?!
SolarBlitz1: The fact that Ninjas are also very entrenched in long time Magic helps this feel like it's more magic than spiderman.
Jethrain: @GredGredmansson Not when it meant a set of almost entirely giant spiders, no
SolarBlitz1: That side is showing more than just "Hey it's New york"
TheMadChicken: "the same deviled egg"
Mr_Horrible: @TXC2 I mean I'll be honest, it remains to be seen whether the next installment for the broader marvel set will feel like it works, either, but it at least won't be a train wreck of a timeline this time, so maybe creative can do something cohesive with it
Kentosaurus: gg
Dog_of_Myth: lrrBartleby
TXC2: Mr_Horrible here hoping
GredGredmansson: oh the saga will trigger it next turn
Abelzumi: I hardly her 'er
Mr_Horrible: the "Mash R1" of magic the gathering sinuuSmug
Abelzumi: Wow I messed that one up
TXC2: we're through the looking glass here people
glitched_goddess: seems good
AwaruaBoy: the bad guys always have the best cards
Mattmitchell45: Has Krang ever piloted Shredder?
GredGredmansson: @Mattmitchell45 yes
goombalax: it will be in my best interest for it to suck
Mattmitchell45: On the other hand, what if it is stellar?
GredGredmansson: one of the alt-arts of Krang/Shredder depicts that
TheMadChicken: arc raiders still has it's claws in me
Daggerpeak: heard from someone in the betas (who also has several hundred hours in arc raiders) that it was rough
rosesmcgee: How low does the bar need to be to qualify as "extremely"?
RatherLargeToad: I’m tempted to try the server test, and I am terrible at shooters
TheMadChicken: not sure I would buy and switch to marathon unless its just absolutely incredible
Garbage_Collectr: Unrelated, but i was in super early beta for Anthem and was like "this game sucks" and it did in fact suck
Mr_Horrible: I desperately want to see if they still have the chops to make an interesting time loop narrative in an extraction shooter framework (I do not think they do, sadly, but I'm hoping)
EvilBadman: I did an test of it and bounced hard.. I am not an extraction shooter guy.
Jethrain: The first hit often is
Mr_Horrible: also the game itself looks so much less cool than the trailer it's not even funny
Gekyouryuu: Cam, goofy idea: reprint of Consuming Aberration that's reskinned as Krang. "Codex Shredder~ Mill me a body~"
Mr_Horrible: "Kill 'er Mike"

GredGredmansson: hi bishop
Cptasparagus: is playing Krang and Shredder separately acceptable.
glitched_goddess: those hot rodding teenagers are annoying
rosesmcgee: This person's sleeves belies their attitude towards squirrels

TheMadChicken: these surveys often feel like a shake down "did you enjoy that beat down??"
EvilBadman: Did you create content? :) :(
TXC2: "you're goddamn right I did!"
Gekyouryuu: Cam, you're reminding me of a joke i saw of the focus group guy asking the kids if they want a down to earth show about real problems or a fantastical show about giant robots, they say yes to both, and it cuts to the Eva opening

TXC2: well good, but not hell queue good :p
Cptasparagus: turns out curving out is strong
Gekyouryuu: OH! You know what I want in the marvel heroes set? A card acknowledging how the ooze that mutates the turtles is canonically the same thing that blinded Daredevil
SolarBlitz1: Honestly this set is looking way more fun than I had expected and seeing it in practice shows I can't get a hold of cards in spoilers vs in play
petey_vonwho: I cNt wait to add her to my Vilis commander deck
drcthulu: I like the idea of playing krang and hitting them for 18 when you pay 9
TXC2: or have techonodrome come in as a 6/6 and be online right away
GredGredmansson: there's a bunch of stuff i want for my Vastra/Jenny deck
Spades_Slicc: Play madam null -> play blightsteel collosus -> double lethel robot
Gekyouryuu: Cam, what you do is wait for them to sneak something in and pay life, then kill spell it before damage

Dog_of_Myth: Oh, yeah that Polygon article
SolarBlitz1: It's Polygon
lirazel64: All of Checkpoint in about 5 words just entered my brain.
Juliamon: That is what Polygon has become? Wow
Snowwraith: Polygon which has unfortunately been stripped for parts by a genAI-loving company.
TheMadChicken: Polygon is a ghost town of a games news site
ghyllnox: All the question mark stuff is tracking btw
TheMerricat: https://www.polygon.com/resident-evil-requiem-review/ is a non tracking cookie version
Juliamon: https://www.polygon.com/resident-evil-requiem-review/ without all that tracking shit
TheMerricat: :D

TheMerricat: "After the Bomb is a post-apocalyptic role-playing game (RPG) setting from Palladium Books, originally a supplement for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness RPG, created by Erick Wujcik, Kevin Siembieda, and Matthew Balent"
TheMadChicken: i keep reading "dream beavers" to the tune of Earth Angel
jarblesthegrey: you mean dream weaver
iris_of_ether: Naturally
RatherLargeToad: a large frog, you say?
AugmentingPath: Looks like Palladium, so more RIFTS than GURPS
jarblesthegrey: dreeeeam beavers, I believe you can get me through the niiiight
Mindfire13: Huge guy named Tiny. Name a more iconic duo.
undecided44: I thought there was one called Mutants and Masterminds that had a TMNT hack... maybe my memory made that up?
jarblesthegrey: sing the dream beavers song!
TheMadChicken: grounded for life seems fine?
TheMadChicken: technodrome has to get in there
drcthulu: I don't think this is the technodrome deck
TheMadChicken: oh true we dont make the muts
MarkovDescendant: Don't fall for the Technodrome trap.
TheMadChicken: drome seems great in green pump
CaptainSpam: So in this game of Magic, an FF character and an Avatar TLB character are facing off in the TMNT sewer hideaway...
CaptainSpam: *Avatar TLA
hat_hair: holy moly
emilevitt: wow that value

TheMadChicken: good lord
TheMadChicken: the value
hydrate_or_else: This is actually gross
SolarBlitz1: These game actions are unfathomably based
Dog_of_Myth: That was a sweet play
countingku: The Value!
TheMerricat: TBF there are worst things to be a shill for, *gestures outside*

Simriel: I just saw the Requiem thing in the Mod Slack. I continue to ask. What. Fuckin... What
lowkeycook: that was pretty sweet
GredGredmansson: as a person who didn't watch profs video thanks
RatherLargeToad: Prof has forgotten what joy feels like
petey_vonwho: Prof is never right
Dog_of_Myth: Draft seems fun. That's all I ask from it
drcthulu: from what I've seen the set is pretty good, the only issue I would see is it's a bit bomb heavy
SolarBlitz1: Prof is entitled to his oppinion, so is Cam, that's all we need to say
drcthulu: but not overtly so
emilevitt: but think of the funny shenanigans with sneak!
emilevitt: skaiPridePog
Kipstar: you did
drcthulu: yes
Simriel: Okay but consider... entirely accurate Pigeon Coo
Simriel: Which would be very cute and good
GredGredmansson: is anyone truly "good" at Magic the Gathering

EvilBadman: @Spades_Slicc the timing of that with the raid
Gekyouryuu: Oh, have we played with the battlefield environment yet? Does anything do anything?
BrowneePointz: they Leo’d our Nardo!
GredGredmansson: he got sent to the room fast
EvilBadman: @Gekyouryuu can eat pizza and make the arcade beep and boop
zombub: Who steps on a bird
BrowneePointz: Leo, being the oldest(or 2nd oldest) and having all the responsibility
GredGredmansson: also Raph needs a punching bag
SolarBlitz1: It's the Robin in Teen Titans, trying to be the adult amongst teens
Gekyouryuu: @EvilBadman ty

BrowneePointz: if you keep clicking the arcade cabinet it gives you a game over screen
Smirking_Bear: All the foulness
Simriel: The Foot Clan is pretty foul
BrowneePointz: also having a skateboard deck being the joystick board is such a cool choice
idontgetmyrealname: when in doubt, slam it out
Kentosaurus: all you need is slam
Simriel: Also yeah your pool is absurd.
emilevitt: BIRD
Simriel: This is on the tier of my 'double wurmcoil' Brothers War pool
BrowneePointz: currently standard is pretty wide open
Simriel: I won that prerelease, because I had 2 wurmcoil engines
BrowneePointz: you should make a Splinter Esper Ninjas commander deck to have Cam
thomas_brady12: goblins are good in standard right now
Simriel: I had 9 playable rares and mythics in the pool, 2 of which were Wurmcoil and Foil Wurmcoil
NornsFelidar: bo3 standard or arena standard?
countingku: That reminds me of the M20 pre-release where I destroyed with 2 flip-Bolas and Lathiliss and a Whisper.
Flyingdelorion: Hm, seems deece
NornsFelidar: foil wurmcoil spawns foil tokens
Simriel: @countingku Sometimes you open a sealed pool, look at it and go 'Oh, I win this event'
BrowneePointz: but yea I was watching the Spike Feeders and one of them was as running Esper Splinter Ninjas and I was like “I think I need to build this”
chief10kirk: Not getting their own deathtoucher back seems like a bit of a punt
Simriel: Cam, stop, this opponent has a family
the_brainfist: In War of the Spark prerelease I played the same copy of Nicol Bolas Dragon God 4 times in one game. Oppo said 'gg, I can't beat that' and conceded.
Ace__of__Hearts: so Leon Kennedy
Simriel: @the_brainfist Why did it take 4 castings for that to happen!
Spades_Slicc: Surely you kill the lord here
the_brainfist: @Simriel I mean, the answered it the first three...
the_brainfist: they*
BrowneePointz: cuz since you play Canlander Cam, Splinter doubles Fallen Shinobi triggers, and that’s my kind of Magic War Crime
Simriel: Splinter doubles... Oh. OH boy
MarkovDescendant: What does beavers do?
BrowneePointz: yep doubles all ninja triggers @simriel
countingku: @Simriel The best part of that one was my kit was given to someone else, they said they didn't want it took another one and then the judge handed to me. They were not happy.
Mr_Horrible: mizzOOF
skuzzo: To be fair, that IS rough.
idontgetmyrealname: lol get beavered
Simriel: One of my favourite things to do in magic was hit someones Gonti with my Gonti

SolarBlitz1: The fact you hold them at 0 while resolving the scry is such BM
ChroniclerC: Death by beavers.
RuggedDadBod: what level of player did you have to be to get this early access?
Smirking_Bear: Splinter + fallen shinobi + yuriko ..... that seems gross to think about lol
EvilBadman: "ooh I'll top this."
marxmarksman: Who would you be willing to disrepect in EA?
MarkovDescendant: Drain and scry on a filter for one black mana is gross and I love it!
Voidhawk42: Those beavers are gonna have a hell of a kill count by the end of this set
Simriel: Like Gonti opp, hit their gonti, doesn't matter what the other cards are, I am takin the Gonti
Natural_Ones_Only: voxy?
EvilBadman: Cori and Kathleen played Jordan, that's a good target
NornsFelidar: soo... unlike arachnokid, this set doesn't feature a lot of humans, but a lot of creatures with tons of creature types. Pubertal Mutant Diligent Zookeepers anyone?
BrowneePointz: nope

unbanjitte: @MarkovDescendant my mom read these all throughout childhood
Smirking_Bear: Biology and linguistics for the most part
Simriel: I WANT to read R.F Kuang's Katabasis, but my brain is currently Cheese so I am reading The High Khals Oath
Natural_Ones_Only: @lamina5432 AO3 but a book (This is not a bad thing)
Mr_Horrible: I *should* be finishing The Dead Take The A-Train but I've just been rereading my old Usagi Yojimbo paperbacks because TMNT reminded me of them
Ace__of__Hearts: where should I start with The Culture?
ZachtlyAsIntended: I love the "Channel - 6" flavor on that
the_brainfist: I'm currently wrestling with whether I want to read more Ursula K Leguin, or finish Pratchett's Discworld.
Simriel: The audiobook is Bad, but the story so far is Fun I guess?
hat_hair: I'm of the opinion that "Player of Games" is a solid start
Simriel: Btw don't sleep on R.F Kuang chat
MarkovDescendant: @unbanjitte Sadly Grafton passed before finishing the alphabet. They are so good

Ace__of__Hearts: okay I was coming to you because I know there are Discussions
the_brainfist: @lirazel64 That's the problem, too many good options!
Simriel: Babel was fuckin Rad, I think you would enjoy it, Katabasis is also very well reviewed
notthepenguins: I pretty much jumped in with Surface Detail and did fine
notthepenguins: i get the feeling you can sort of read them in whatever order aside from more direct sequels
BrowneePointz: also chat, a reminder if you don’t mind reading YA leaning fiction, check out Diane Duane’s Young Wizards, she helped create the Urban Fantasy Genre and I feel her work is criminally underrated
Ace__of__Hearts: I also need to read the Lathe of Heaven at some point this year
Natural_Ones_Only: Have you read anything else in the LitRPG genre lately?
notthepenguins: @BrowneePointz so is
zelukester: @the_brainfist are you mid-series with LeGuin? if yes, I'd continue on; the Discworld novels are pretty standalone.
rosesmcgee: Living opposed to the culture. Terrifying
pctjoe: player of games does a better job of explaining the culture, plebus is an odd start as the culture is kinda the antagonists
the_brainfist: @zelukester Even worse, read Left Hand of Darkness and loved it. Want to do Earthsea but am conceptually half-way through Discworld.
Simriel: How can you not love a book whos full title is Babel, or The Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution
notthepenguins: I still haven't read Babel, but I know my mom and one of my best friends absolutely adored it
Ace__of__Hearts: there is a consistent and considered philosophy on the other side I understand
BrowneePointz: I should reread Dune Messah in prep for D U N C part 3
djalternative: I’m currently about 1100 chapters into a 1500 chapter Chinese novel called Lord of Mysteries. it’s real fun. got a lot of interesting ideas
Simriel: @notthepenguins Babel is a Fascinating exploration of Race and Empire and both Old School and Neocolonialism
Ace__of__Hearts: I need to read Dune Messiah too
zelukester: @the_brainfist tricky indeed! I say read the next DW and see how you feel. Tone between the two authors is different enough that one could be a good "break" from the other :P
Jillexie: The Idrians
djalternative: 2027 iirc
MrTulip: idk if I'd describe Use of Weapons as my /favorite/ culture novel, but it sure stands out in my memory
Natural_Ones_Only: Did anyone here keep reading Dune past God-Emperor and how is it
Smirking_Bear: All these books sound infinitely better then my biology class reading books lol
shendaras: I've only read Dune, so I should probably at some point read the other books.
the_brainfist: @BrowneePointz I'm torn on whether I care about anything past the first book. Like, it's pretty clear the path Paul ended up on and that was the compelling part of the journey for me. Post book 1 it's just watching him be bad at a certain point y'know?
MrTulip: not in any way a good starting point though
BrowneePointz: December 18 apparently
the_brainfist: @zelukester jorbsLove
Ace__of__Hearts: My mom recently finished The Wheel of Time on audio book. She has MS and is in bed a lot so she just inhaled The Wheel of Time.
LeshracMTG: @Natural_Ones_Only not a fan of the ones Franks son wrote
Jillexie: A war that involved multiple stars being pushed out of the main sequence.
Bruceski: @Natural_Ones_Only I've heard that they are quite good but they keep getting weirder so when it's too much for you it's fine to stop.
Smirking_Bear: @shendaras I can't attest for the most books, but I did the prequel books for the butlerian jihad and I enjoyed them
YarrMorgan: I just double clicked on the pizza slice and exited fullscreen lol
BrowneePointz: that’s why Dune Messiah is interesting. it shows Paul falling prey to self fulfilling prophecy and what even is the nature of prophecy
Ace__of__Hearts: and now I'm giving her Earthsea novels and she's like "Wow that was really short" and I'm like "Yeah you are used to THE WHEEL OF TIME"
Ace__of__Hearts: The Dispossessed
Simriel: Right, sleep for me now. Chat if you like Interesting but Difficult fantasy novels, read R
BrowneePointz: I should reread the Dragonriders of Pern
Simriel: R.F Kuang
Natural_Ones_Only: Been loving the Bobiverse lately, Dude gets woken up as a replicant 100 years after he died, is put into a Von Neumann probe and yeeted out into space
dougma: Left hand of darkness for me
lirazel64: Yes! Dispossessed!
Ace__of__Hearts: Tombs of Atuen is slept on
pctjoe: need to read left hand yet
the_brainfist: Did Left Hand last year, loved it. Plan to do Dispossessed at some point.
Jillexie: Yes, read Babel.
Desruprot: Retail Ninjas
Natural_Ones_Only: @BrowneePointz I've heard that has some... Content Warnings, how bad is it?
djalternative: pulp?
Ace__of__Hearts: it took me so long to get into Left Hand of Darkness but the later half of that book is so good after she finds her footing
JKBalch: lrrCREEPL lrrCREEPR
lirazel64: Don't know about "effortlessly...
BrowneePointz: Dragonriders of Pern gets into some weird spaces of Anne McAffrey’s Id @natural_ones_only
Iperithon: I grew up reading Dragon riders of pern
ZachtlyAsIntended: They were some of my favorite books back in middle school
detectiveYarmas: actually, me too
BrowneePointz: they wonderful, also weird, good mix of sci fi and fantasy
BrowneePointz: lots of time jumping
Natural_Ones_Only: I've heard there's some consent issues so I steered clear
Juliamon: I read it before I was old enough to really appreciate how fucked up it was
djalternative: Anne McAffrey is a favorite of Brando Sando too
notthepenguins: McCaffrey has issues but man she could write a book
Mr_Horrible: a formative text, I'd imagine
lamina5432: I tried the first book and it was meh
Ace__of__Hearts: so the big ones in the Hainish Cycle are Left Hand The Disposessed is Lathe of Heaven Hainsih or a stand alone?
rentar42: "Do we need dream beavers?" A question that has been on mind since roughly forever ... really one of the questions of all times
BrowneePointz: but yea my last read of the was quite some time ago so I cannot accurately give a CW
the_brainfist: That's got me pretty sold TBH
Ace__of__Hearts: the way I have heard it described that makes a lot of sense
zelukester: any Tamora Pierce enjoyers in chat? those books were great
BrowneePointz: but I WILL go to bat for Diane Duane’s books, she even went in and fixed outdated language in the recent reprintings
Natural_Ones_Only: Does Lathe of Heaven feature any machining using a lathe
pctjoe: I hear there will be new murderbot soonish
RealGamerCow: something something April puting the beavers on the bottom
CaptainSpam: It's just a really good lathe.
Ace__of__Hearts: be careful what substances you smoke before touching the lathe
RealGamerCow: Can the Lathe of Heaven de-glove the universe?
lamina5432: anyone read Mercedes Lackey, Shes got some chops
JKBalch: So kinda seedy motel lathe
the_brainfist: Do not lathe heaven whilst intoxicated.
Smirking_Bear: There's quite the wind storm in my part of BC .....
Iperithon: Being able to craft 4 posts out of murcury the planet seems worth it
lirazel64: LeGuin is such a good writer that she can make things effortless, if she's making the reader work, there's a reason.
Driosenth: do you have to remove your rosary before you use the lathe of heaven?
Natural_Ones_Only: Using a lathe tmrw, will take this in mind
Smirking_Bear: We love big ladies
Ace__of__Hearts: @Driosenth it is so important that you put nothing Catholic anywhere near the Lathe
JKBalch: Chat enjoys getting kicked by big lady.
BrowneePointz: LeGuin is easily top 3 fantasy Authors all time
Athelgar: can i make cool vases out of pencil crayons and apoxy with a Lathe of Heaven?
BrowneePointz: and I do mean all time
Ace__of__Hearts: Le Guin got me to practice Tai Chi for a summer
Gekyouryuu: Cam, you're making me think of an Animaniacs "good idea, bad idea" scenario: "Good idea! Lather, Rinse, Repeat your hair. Bad Idea! Lathe, Rinse, Repeat your hair."
Natural_Ones_Only: Is it LeGuin, Pratchett, and Tolkien?
the_brainfist: Yeah! I've been so pumped.
Ace__of__Hearts: @Natural_Ones_Only and maybe Banks
GredGredmansson: lrrJAMES
the_brainfist: Funnily enough, I read Left hand in between books 2&3 of the sprawl. Was a WONDERFUL Christmas break.
Natural_Ones_Only: My reading list is over 50 chrome tabs now
Smirking_Bear: Th3 both of you are relying on your big ladies and top decking ?
the_brainfist: Mona Lisa Overdrive is an absolutely peak name for a novel IMO.
RealGamerCow: I met Gibson in 1995 and asked him about a Neuromancer movie. He got *very* upset at me and baasically told me to fuck off. I didn't know he was in big fights about it at the time
CaptainSpam: April O'Neil, Scourge of Squirrels
Natural_Ones_Only: How is Murderbot Tv show
the_brainfist: @RealGamerCow Funny timing, but such a bummer.
BrowneePointz: I’ve heard good things
shendaras: I liked Murderbot, it was good.
BrowneePointz: oof Alopex
Anubis169: manL manM manR manD
Ace__of__Hearts: also don't keep your Magic Deck or D&D set near the Lathe
rentar42: F
BrowneePointz: Raph’s gf has hands
shendaras: I hadn't read any of it before watching, though. I went back and read afterward.
BrowneePointz: err Paws
arcaedethefae: i started reading the culture series thanks to you cameron, its been great
rentar42: isn't it "Aprils O'neil"?
Ace__of__Hearts: I mean not more than 4
GredGredmansson: lrrJAMES
UtilityPunk: lrrLUL cursed
CaptainSpam: Welp.
Anubis169: OWW
CaptainSpam: One April for every month of the year, yes.
GredGredmansson: cmon settle the wreckage
pctjoe: slaps hood you can fit so many april oniels in here
NornsFelidar: it's not constructed, they can have more than 4
EvilBadman: @rentar42 A shower of April, surely
BrowneePointz: more like April O Neil, Kunosan amirite
Chenderle: hey, that land gives you life at least!
JKBalch: Huh, maybe should have used the lathe on some lands
BrowneePointz: *please someone get that pun*
CaptainSpam: Ah, this is merely my February April.
Ace__of__Hearts: Splinter looks like a horse
Natural_Ones_Only: 104.3a A player can concede the game at any time. A player who concedes leaves the game immediately. That player loses the game.
Gekyouryuu: @BrowneePointz I get it
Ace__of__Hearts: do you think Donatello has read The Culture?
Natural_Ones_Only: Please let the next draw be land
BrowneePointz: yes
BrowneePointz: Donnie has read James Joyce for fun, he’s definitely read The Culture
BrowneePointz: it’s Bebop and Rocksteady pre mutation
Anubis169: travLorg
Chenderle: pizza is the most powerful card in this set
Natural_Ones_Only: Pizza? In My Magic the gathering?
jarblesthegrey: bitchin tunes amiright
Natural_Ones_Only: High
Garbage_Collectr: story of my life
BrowneePointz: look they’ve got bebop and rocksteady on board they’ve gotta go maximum toitles
Natural_Ones_Only: Mono Leonardo
Garbage_Collectr: so many manhole missiles
GredGredmansson: oops all removal
Ace__of__Hearts: I mean I've read Joyce for fun The Dead is a really good short story and Portrait of the Artist is great (you can skip Ulysses and do not touch Finnigan's Wake it is a prank)
BrowneePointz: that’s 5 removal spells?
BrowneePointz: 6?
Garbage_Collectr: sometimes you only draw your removal
GredGredmansson: 3 creatures.
GredGredmansson: they played 3 creatures this game.
BrowneePointz: Jesus 5 removal spells
dolphgrim: Almost had em
Ace__of__Hearts: horse Splinter
CaptainSpam: They cast Remove Player, apparently. Yeesh.
NornsFelidar: sealed.... sometimes you get 3 cards in a single color, sometimes you get removal in one color and creatures in another, sometimes you get this
ZachtlyAsIntended: But the song says "Lots of fun at Finnegan's Wake"
BrowneePointz: tbh that was me with Moby Dick, phenomenal book but dear lord Melville is a dry writer
goombalax: someone left a copy of Blood Meridian in the kid's section at the bookstore I work at
Ace__of__Hearts: I knew a guy in a PhD program who tried to read Finnigans Wake and when the text became Musical Notation he through it at the wall
Chenderle: Dream Beavers are unstoppable
BrowneePointz: Nightmare Beavers
skuzzo: You can't just ask someone why they fly!
GredGredmansson: because they are dream beavers
Bruceski: So they can get you through the night
BrowneePointz: bus gravity
Invitare: you can always fly in dreams
Garbage_Collectr: nightmares are dreams too
ElektroTal: "Why do you fly, dream beavers" was the name of my favorite 1960s psychadelic rock album
Ace__of__Hearts: but The Dead may be the one of the best short stories ever written
GredGredmansson: yeah the end of the Dream Beavers episode they successfully break into the real world
GredGredmansson: but there they are only as powerful as normal beavers so they are easily stopped
GredGredmansson: also fun fact one of the Dream Beavers is actually named Dave
Ace__of__Hearts: The Dead really gets into what it is like to be awkward at a Christmas party with your relatives
UtilityPunk: Oooh, Dream Beavers SingsNote I believe you can get me through this fight
Gekyouryuu: I've just seen a really funny horse name: Potoooooooo, pronounced Pot-8-Os
Ace__of__Hearts: it turns into an existential crisis that has a beautiful pseudo resolution
rentar42: don't beaver-extend, good plan

Chenderle: "it can't hurt me"
GredGredmansson: oh no it can hurt me
BrowneePointz: I love that’s it’s just Char on a food
v_nome: You would think they'd learn not to eat the pizza
Spades_Slicc: Interesting flavor on the spicy oatmeal pizza: OP is the one eating it, the damage is dealt merely by the pizza being created
Sadario: entity
dolphgrim: Still can't believe they got the bite.wav. what a legend.
GredGredmansson: i'm imagining the comedy classic of the person eating spicy food and belching fire into someone else's face
Garbage_Collectr: i like my pizzas with only pineapple
Spades_Slicc: I fully believe that spicy oat pizza is top tier and I can't wait to make it myself
Spades_Slicc: @Garbage_Collectr No cheese?
Spades_Slicc: @Garbage_Collectr No Sauce?
Garbage_Collectr: correct, and i don't even want the pineapple baked, i put it on the crust after
Sadario: Pineapple dough?
SolarBlitz1: Oh no, answers . deck

definenull: is removal good in this format? /j
dolphgrim: @Garbage_Collectr Out there eating pineapple with pizza on it
v_nome: Foot Mystic sounds like a Quetin Tarantino character
Garbage_Collectr: on a serious note, BBQ chicken pizza is so good
BrowneePointz: Foot Mystic’s actual name is Mishima? Mashima?
NornsFelidar: how dare you not block?..........
NornsFelidar: this is nuts
GredGredmansson: @Garbage_Collectr a place i went to in high school had "gold fever" pizza, which was like a weird honey bbq sauce with chicken
Spades_Slicc: If you wanted to play a game of MTG why'd you boot up Arena, the "fucked by the shuffler + OP always has it" simulator?
Garbage_Collectr: i bet that was so good, throw some mushrooms and pineapple on that and you got a stew
JKBalch: Dead is stable
Strebenherz: You got this!
BrowneePointz: but yea the foot mystic is a guy who uses the paramecia coloniex to clone shredder, it’s the storyline shark shredder is from as well
dolphgrim: We will never die.
SolarBlitz1: Sneak also is possibly bad
GredGredmansson: holllllld
mistborn_wit: Hey Cam how goes Turtle Time
Sadario: :O
SolarBlitz1: Hooooold
definenull: stabilising…
definenull: no!

mistborn_wit: Im gonna be honest did not love Lorywn limited looking forward to this limited set
Datnade012: Not allowed to have fun with UB tho /s
rentar42: turns out, Magic is still a good game.
Ocre__: having fun while playing a game... in this economy?
notthepenguins: i think the kids call enjoying things "cringe" these days
marxmarksman: Turns out winning is fun.
mistborn_wit: Why?
countingku: the mechanics are great, 6 versions of a ton of characters is less fun.
mistborn_wit: why are you supppose to hate it
GredGredmansson: universes beyond is why
GredGredmansson: for many people
lamina5432: pick two I think is fine as a back up to regular draft, though I don't think they need to design sets around it
WiJohn: Draft format seems much better than Spiderman, this one maybe had enough time in the oven
hadouken_harry: are there only pick 23 draft in this set ? v:/
EvilBadman: @mistborn_wit this world is built to destroy whimsy and enjoyment and turn you into a cynical husk
hadouken_harry: pick 2* :-D
Desruprot: woah new animations
mistborn_wit: @EvilBadman AHHH I missed that memo. It is a hobby I enjoy in the vacum of how I engage with it.
BrowneePointz: honestly Cam, would be fun to see yall do a weird Super Draft with like 2 TMNT packs and 2 Spider-Man packs(since there’s a full 10 archetypes between the two sets)
EvilBadman: @mistborn_wit 100 agree
GredGredmansson: we baited their removal we're colden
NornsFelidar: @BrowneePointz is there enough cross-synergies though?
mistborn_wit: Not like this
SolarBlitz1: Opponent has a great name too
BrowneePointz: @nornsfelidar honestly kinda
mistborn_wit: @NornsFelidar I mean sneak and enweb seem fun together
Spades_Slicc: Hey look it's that thing you did games ago
EvilBadman: @BrowneePointz New York City Block seems fun
GredGredmansson: karai stop helping your dad for one second
Spades_Slicc: Philbo Fraggins AGAIN?
mistborn_wit: oh no....
Gekyouryuu: oh, I think we've faced them earlier today
GredGredmansson: "you know on second thought this set sucks"
EvilBadman: we did
BrowneePointz: Kathleen demolished Philbo earlier, they’re back for revenge
mistborn_wit: Philobo Fraggins is a great user name
SolarBlitz1: Oh it's Adam's PPR deck
rentar42: there seems to be an above-average amount of pizza-based removal in this set ...
GredGredmansson: with all the pizza they have its highly likely
BrowneePointz: there’s two removal pizzas and one as a combat trick @rentar42
mistborn_wit: yikes
GredGredmansson: there's also a card that can tutor for them and one that can regrow them
rentar42: @BrowneePointz I'd say 2.5 is more than two standard deviations above the average ...
GredGredmansson: opponent missed lethal
mistborn_wit: Cam if we take out UB what is your go to color pair? UR? or something else
GredGredmansson: they were supposed to target you with the draw 2 and lose 2 mode
GredGredmansson: no target YOU with that mode
BrowneePointz: simic(or Temur) for life
LaskoReadsComics: Good evening Cam! How goes the TMNT?
mistborn_wit: black what is always a fun combo in draft
GredGredmansson: writes down "prioritize removal in sealed"
BrowneePointz: hide in shell
EvilBadman: the green spell i think?
BrowneePointz: it’s in green
GredGredmansson: !card Saved by the Shell
LRRbot: Saved by the Shell [1G] | Instant | This spell costs {1} less to cast if you control a Turtle. / Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you control. It gains trample, hexproof, and indestructible until end of turn.
BrowneePointz: that’s the name
BrowneePointz: Karai’s technique
BrowneePointz: manhole missile
BrowneePointz: bot bash
BrowneePointz: tenderize
GredGredmansson: ye its uncommon
BrowneePointz: factory
BrowneePointz: it’s a powerful and interesting set
BrowneePointz: lots of good bombs, and lots of removal
BrowneePointz: I think there is a definite palpable difference in this being designed as a small set from the get go
BrowneePointz: vs spider having to get stretched
couchboyj: Mayhem
IanWAdams: Mayhem
SolarBlitz1: Mayhem
NornsFelidar: @BrowneePointz i'm sceptical. kindred synergies don't overlap (they didn't even put a Villain on any creature in TMNT), I don't see any generic enablers for mayhem in turtles to support it. The rest is flavorless whatever. It "may" technically work for the sole reason two sets together have enough cards.
BrowneePointz: there’s more texture so far
BrowneePointz: which is good
Strebenherz: i'm just hoping we see the star trek set done well. grew up on tng and voyager and if they're gonna do this, i hope it does good
NornsFelidar: you can see they actually worked longer on it lol
IanWAdams: I really like how Sneak, Disappear and Alliance interplay.
EvilBadman: Like BrowniePointz said, I'd like to see a New York City Block Limited with Spider-Man and TMNT
Strebenherz: also cam, was the favorite donnie or am i off the mark
BrowneePointz: and now you’ll have to check out The Last Robin
Strebenherz: reasonable
aerohydra: leo was my favorite
BrowneePointz: Ronin*
LaskoReadsComics: I was a Raph kid
Ace__of__Hearts: I was born in 1987 so that "six months" for me was more like 7 years
LaskoReadsComics: I loved the violent one
Strebenherz: YESSSS
EvilBadman: I grew to really like Raph after watching the 1989 movie again
aitsu100: i was a mikey kid and now am a Raph fan
Strebenherz: the usagi yojimbo series is good stuff
cmdrud87: I am actually surprised by that, as Donatello is the science guy
BusTed: haha
CaptainSpam: Well, everyone liked Irma.
BrowneePointz: I love how the turtles work as an ensemble the most
CaptainSpam: She's Irma.
BrowneePointz: and why I think they’re enduring
2Flower: Irma is love, Irma is life.
pctjoe: I really liked the robot turtle think it was in one episode
GredGredmansson: @pctjoe metalhead?
Ace__of__Hearts: Donatello uses a lever I've always liked that
GredGredmansson: he's been in various series
the_bubble_machine watched 5 consecutive streams and sparked a watch streak!
o/
BrowneePointz: the angry one gets a defensive weapon
pctjoe: @GredGredmansson yep thats it
BrowneePointz: the aloof one gets the hardest to learn
GredGredmansson: i always liked Leatherhead and Baxter Stockman
Ace__of__Hearts: Donatello's weapon is literally a simple machine it's perfect
GredGredmansson: YES.
BrowneePointz: and the leader has the one that requires restraint
Molator: or you knock yourself in the nuts
Strebenherz: they're all weapons that splinter 100% went "yeah this is something you work on"
SolarBlitz1: Straightforward but dangerous
hat_hair: Leonardo, the Cyclops of the Turtles
Ace__of__Hearts: make no mistake a bo staff can kill
GredGredmansson: mikey has the weapon that he can't hurt himself if he screws up too
Dog_of_Myth: Yep
aitsu100: yes
EvilBadman: I saw a guy hit himself in the nuts and fall on a skateboard once
raulghoulia: in the uk in the 90s I believe I read that ninjas were too violent so they were rebranded as Hero Turtles and Mikey had a grapping hook instead of nunchaku
BrowneePointz: also chat once again, I cannot stress enough how good The Last Ronin is. absolutely phenomenal comic run
lady_olynder: But with blunt trauma rather than a blade
Dromos_GHG: LRR has a video about nuncuck damage
Foxmar320: Weve all seen the video of Graham at this point
ZachtlyAsIntended: Nunchucks are the one that's been banned in places outside of training dojos because of how badly people hurt themselves with them
Strebenherz: nutchucks
aitsu100: CTE is no joke
BrowneePointz: also Mikey knows how to use Kusarigama as well
Jethrain: @raulghoulia They were definitely "hero turtles" as a kid in the UK, yeah
GredGredmansson: i guess
BrowneePointz: cuz Mikey always had the most potential, Splinter said this as well
Garbage_Collectr: uno mas!
Strebenherz: down to see that
youcantlistentobuttons: I am excited for my pre release!
LaskoReadsComics: One more!
Triskaidekaphobia: @raulghoulia its true nunchaku were a banned weapon in the uk

youcantlistentobuttons: I think you have to mono black here
hat_hair: Mono black it is
Smirking_Bear: All at gahams expense ? Why not ! Lol
BrowneePointz: AND super shredder!?
GredGredmansson: there was an episode in one series where they beat Metalhead by swapping weapons, since he had been made by Stockman to hardcounter their normal fighting styles
rentar42: hey cam, I think you ought to consider playing black
IanWAdams: that's a lot of Shredders
WiJohn: Well, that's a pool
aitsu100: 2 shredds you say
couchboyj: To Shredders you say
EvilBadman: The Cloning of Shredder being the name and theme is :chefkiss:
GredGredmansson: i'm seeing double, 8 shredders
ZachtlyAsIntended: @aitsu100 Angry upvote
Smirking_Bear: Oops all shredder ?
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Blackpool is a town in Lancashire, iirc, @LoadingReadyRun Cam.
GredGredmansson: is it FUN is what we need to ask
GredGredmansson: how many anchovy/banana pizzas
Ace__of__Hearts: a Shredder Cannon
Ace__of__Hearts: this is a gun that shoots Shredders
rentar42: i believe with that many shredders you have to play his armor as well ...
Ace__of__Hearts: pls set Shredder Faucet to off
thedepthandbreadthofseth: don't call it a comeback.
thedepthandbreadthofseth: did you just verb Proust?
EvilBadman: None, coward
Ace__of__Hearts: like in the ocean everything on land wants to evolve into Shredder
Smirking_Bear: Not a single shredder
lady_olynder: Mono Shredder?
EvilBadman: :P <3
marxmarksman: Verbing weirds words.
IanWAdams: surely the verb is madelined
JKBalch: No shredders to be put into the shredder
Ace__of__Hearts: Carchanization but with Shredder
Feriority: Three shredders, looks like a good opening hand
thedepthandbreadthofseth: This week I learned that the past tense of Prince is Prunce. As in t Prunce Andrew.
rentar42: @marxmarksman "Verbing Weirds Language" only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.
Ace__of__Hearts: oh after this Cam watch the animated film Batman vs The TMNT it's REALLY good
youcantlistentobuttons: great hand, all shreddar
Ace__of__Hearts: yeah he looks like his dad
SolarBlitz1: They desperately try to lie back so they dont get a photo, but they just end up looking weird
Ace__of__Hearts: they look like they are touching the Lathe
thedepthandbreadthofseth: they are generally dull witted and ill adapted to new situations.
rentar42: to shreds, you say?
Garbage_Collectr: but wait until you cast your other shredder!
Ace__of__Hearts: the Splinter off to the right there is tiny
Ace__of__Hearts: oh that's not a game board that is a tile floor Splinter is normal sized
Ace__of__Hearts: I mean for Splinter he is a huge rat
thedepthandbreadthofseth: I also do enjoy "the Andrew formerly known as Prince."
Smirking_Bear: The British family has gone down hill since queen Elizabeth died imo
Ace__of__Hearts: with hard drives and graphics cards as hard to get as they are now where does Donny scrounge for them?
Ace__of__Hearts: Shredder feels very Blue Black coded

NornsFelidar: Goongala grew a meaning in the recent years though....
BusTed: deck is cool but rude
Feriority: To shredders you say
Smirking_Bear: Rudely cool ?
Ace__of__Hearts: I mean on the one hand you are a dude who where's a hockey mask and beats up purse snatchers with a baseball bat as a form of justice and on the other your best friends are talking mutants so you have to be pretty open minded
youcantlistentobuttons: Heh, this deck Shreds
