Not really, there's an older angel and we just got OTJ Jace that both care about turn #, and the mentioned Gemstone Mine for starting player. Really this was probably just acorn for power reasons, an evolving wilds that either scries or untaps probably isn't broken but could be

Big rules nerd here, and you may already know this but for anyone seeing this new tech who doesn't: Tamiyos safekeeping (or other indestructible sources) won't protect a planeswalker from losing loyalty counters to damage, or for dying to zero loyalty. The reason is although it can't be destroyed (indestructible), it can still take damage, and taking damage is what removes loyalty counters. It's why the various Gideons that turn into creatures both make him indestructible and prevent damage, to avoid this situation.

Ofc, Tamiyo's does protect against "destroy target/all planeswalkers" type effects

Ooh Locust God loves this! Worst case it's a 6-mana sorcery draw 5 (not great, but workable). Or, it's a flexible board wipe that leaves your many locust tokens in play. You can even do a cute play of copy the God, then bounce the OG, so the token doesn't die to legend rule (since that's only checked as a state-based action) so you get to keep your locusts and your God and have a backup in your hand.

I play it on the deck all the time and it's fine, graphics turned down to potato but they still look decent, and the FPS stays good in all but the most insane of situations (I play on difficulty 8/9, so I'm experiencing the most enemies possible). Only "hard" part is there's no aim assist for controller so the high precision weapons like snipers are harder to use, but that doesn't stop me from trying haha

Idk about accuracy, but if you take 10,000 shots and only 10% of em hit, you're still crushing the scorcher betas in hit count 🗿

When they see my "Shots Fires" and "Shots Hit" stats 😎😳 (the sickle has crazy rate of fire) (my kills are in the bucket)

Hell yeah let's fuckin' goooooo. I came back from a month break to put in an operation to save the kids

Well, 2, since you have 3 opponents and myriad doesn't make a token for the original you're attacking. So it's puts it closer to on-level for 3 mana green ramp, but getting extra attackers and all the eldrazi spawn synergies is still great

Yep, notably this doesn't have all the basic land types like nearby planet does, which both means it can't produce any color with a simple tap, and also means it doesn't auto-fulfill all your domain with one land. It's not strictly worse since Nearby has the Rupture Spire pay 1 clause, but Nearby is overall way more powerful assuming you can take advantage of domain-type abilities

It runs great! Granted I turned all the graphics to minimum, but the game still looks good and runs great. Only problem is if there's just an absurd amount of particle effects it can get a little frame-y, but I play at the second-highest difficulty (so lots of enemies) and frames only happen every 20 matches or so at most

I regularly use 4 wireless Xbox controllers for this exact purpose, and it works great. There's always the occasional Bluetooth quirks, but overall it's seamless

So now we're making actual people into magic cards eh?

I know he was in the assassins creed games, but it's still funny to have an actual historical figure as a magic card. Can't wait for my Teddy Roosevelt mono-green commander!

Hate everything about this, and I've been a secret lair diehard from day 1. I love the cool art treatments, I buy the overpriced basic lands, I really enjoy the crossovers even when I don't personally care about the property, overall a big fan. But what I do NOT like is turning it into hyper-FOMO "buy quick or never get it again!!" bullshit. Having them be limited to the sale was fine because you got like a month to think about it, being forced to buy it in the first (day? Hour? Minute??) or else the stock disappears means I won't bother, I respect myself too much for that nonsense.

We did get a dredge card fairly recently in [[Shenanigans]], the key here was a niche (but okay priced) effect + a low dredge number. Brings it more in line with the original "fair" use of dredge (re buying useful cards)

Bought Portal 1 + 2 for my love, they'd never played them before and they're tied for my all-time favorite game so couldn't pass it up for $1.98. Plus always on the lookout for co-op games to play :D

For me, I finally bought Cyberpunk 2077, although funnily enough I decided to buy it on GoG since they're the actual developers of the game. Is working perfect through Heroic so far, although to be fair I've only made it just past the intro

Oh thank goodness. Locust God is my baby, and I'm very happy with my Italian foil copy I have right now, but I was considering if I wanted this to have it. But no way I'm spending $200 for it lol

Oh shiiiit, Nagas are becoming snakes! Finally the tribals can make sense!

Woah that's a cool take on Act of Treason! You want to actually hit with what you steal instead of just sac it or whatever. (Granted you probably still sac it, but at least you have the one extra hoop).

Ha nice! Cool to see another Skullbriar effect after all this time. I like that all the counters she can give herself are useful without being oppressive

Crazy that Binding of Isaac is still in there, it's been years since the last release and it's not really in the public consciousness the same way something like Vampire Survivors is. Fantastic game though, happy to see it continue to succeed

Since it's silver-border it falls under silver-border judging rules, which states "C'mon, friend, you know what a toy is, don't be a cheese"

Got to play Cthulhu Wars with 3 friends, one was brand new and two had played two years ago so pretty fresh all around. I had a lead as Daemon Sultan, but made a greedy ritual play and got punished hard. New player playing black goat had the win in the bag with a ritual and 6 gates, but decided not to ritual and play with her food. She ended the next (final) round with zero gates and Cthulhu took the win instead lol

Agreed, I love em. My only complaint is we've only had one set of them so far, and while there's a few standouts ([[Invasion of Segovia]] in Locust God is nasty), overall they were obviously designed on the safer side. Excited to see where the design space leads as they get more confident in the card type

Hmm, currently I run [[Unlicensed Hearse]] as my grave hate in Locust God. This hits one less thing, but +1/+1 counters are probably more useful than a slowly growing vanilla body, and occasionally it will have upside with the activated abilities thing. Tough choice

Aw, cowards made "Counterspell with Downside", instead of our usual "Cancel with Upside". Image if we got a cancel that made a food, or if I'm being greedy a cancel that bargains to cast for U

My Locust God deck will be watching the Bargain mechanic with great interest. This one ain't it (since it doesn't "draw" the cards) but I'm hopeful

Oh man, one of my friends loves playing other people's cards, and has built basically every commander that does so, or at least makes it a major theme. Finally he gets to steal at a pretty good rate, instant speed reverse divination is good and the dragon is a nice kicker

Aw man, I get why they don't want to blow out their pacing with time capsules, but I thought I'd given a cool power boost with my capsule with an ion powercell in it. Wish the game told you that it wasn't allowed

I attempted, it got done downloading most of the BG3 installers, and then.... It all just disappeared? No record of the files or downloads anywhere. Since it took an hour+ I gave up on that angle

I gave up, so many workarounds and reinstalls and everything for nothing. I've refunded and purchased through steam. Luckily someone else in this thread gave me a tip even the steam version is DRM-free, so that's nice

Thanks for the hot tip, after spending 10+ hours struggling I'm just refunding and going to get it on steam. Having to zip my own backup is slightly annoying, but much less so than this nonsense

Honestly, same, my buying habits did a full 180 (I use to wait to get a game on GoG, now I never do). But my witcher 3 I had on GoG worked great even if it was a little less convenient, and BG3 seems like a game I'll want to have forever, so I figured why not. Unfortunate that they had to go and give me a reason why not...

Still failed :/ If I can ask, when did you get your steam deck? Maybe there's subtle manufacturing differences causing the issue? I got mine Sept 2022

Nope, nothing, I haven't really modded my deck at all. I did have dexky just for steamgriddb and protondb badges, but I uninstalled both of those and then dexky itself just to be sure and no changes

Tried this on a fresh install (including new prefix) and no luck. Currently just un and reinstalled heroic itself, and am waiting for my Bauldurs gate download (again), I'll try these steps again once that's done and hope for the best

I was trying Heroic, but it didn't work. I've installed other games through Heroic and they worked just fine. Currently installing it through Lutris to see if that works for some reason

Yep found that in my various googles, sadly none of those tricks helped me

Yep, with both exes, no dice. Currently waiting for my lutris download as a next step to try

Oh man I would LOVE a desparked Dovin! He was such a an interesting character, he had that idiot savant trope except he wasn't an idiot and was actually personable instead of just being "lmao LOGIC" all the time.
