i also got one but i'm mad cause i just want the broken dancer

The maelstrom roared in the shifter's dream, leading to fitful rest. When did they fall asleep? How did they fall in here? Who were they? The voices never ended, or at least, they couldn't tell if they did. Too many voices, some sounding nearly identical to others, eating away at their slumber. A monster. They were a monster. No other sigh. No other senses. Only hearing. Two of the voices, matching perfectly, roared about what they had seen. It was a mistake. This was a mistake. They should know better. She should know better... But as the chaos reached its peak, a single, soft voice echoed through the dream. “Okay, Devin, I don’t know if you can hear me wherever you are down there. I guess it doesn’t matter. You don’t have to come back up right away, but do know I’m here for you, at least.” That one voice caused most of the others to grow quiet. The swirling emotions to calm. It wasn't immediate, but the shifter felt more control returning to their senses... Sure, they were still in a dream, but everything began to come back now. They were naught but a demon... But that voice was still there. That one voice. One they had to protect. ----- Devin, or whoever they were, awoke to the sounds of a fight taking place. Melissa was next to them still, but some of the others had begun to move out and confront the... sand sharks? Weird. But as one of the fish? Mammals? Whatever the hell sharks were set upon them, Devin's body moved like lightning, shooting straight up into the air with Melissa in their arms... and a pair of ethereal blue wings on their back, lined with gold trim. They flapped from above the battle, looking down intently, before their senses returned to them. "Ah, sorry..." The shifter muttered and cast their gaze aside, Melissa still in their arms, "It was just... instinct. Thanks for waking me up..." Their mind screamed at them. If what Mauvache had said was true, they should be distancing themselves from these innocent people. But, even so, here they were, rescuing someone and getting further involved.

Witch and Venser are both cards I need to put in Maybeboard, yeah. Time Wipe is a 100% add-in, I just need to get a copy. Being stuck with Kaya’s Wrath sucks, cause WWBB isn’t super easy to achieve a lot. joseph also said Ashiok, and I kinda wish I hadn’t traded it away... but I guess I got partners and triomes in the trade with it and other WARwalkers Fire Covenant is proooobably good enough, I just look at it and get slightly annoyed for some reason. You’re almost certainly right, though. I feel like Cloven Casting is just too heavy. Like, if it sticks I win, but that’s a huge payment for that... and I had used Thousand Year Storm for similar effect and came to a similar conclusion.

It's because i am (attempting) to curate a ladder for them to work with, especially once I get Birthing Pod. As-is, they're mostly for 5->6, but some 4s into Seedborn/Prophet/Yorion is really strong, as well. I need more 3 drops to smooth that out, too. I don't think Electromancer stays long term, but it's decent enough filler. I would love to cut it for Dack's Duplicate or the like, but need a copy. Jeska is a fun meme. If I drop her, someone is dying on the spot, because either Ramos is big as hell or Niv has +1 attack to swing for commander damage. She's basically a fancy Boros Charm, but I have enjoyed her. Not suuuper attached to her being around forever, but not opposed, either. Lutri is prooobably a no, but my playgroup (and by that I mean (?️), @Kazooie and @PhoenixOfCute) are okay with using the cards. Mostly cause we disagree with the logic that went into the ban of Kruphix/Lutri in main, so it's a house rule kinda thing. I would also say that the most help would be in dual color targets for Niv that I might have overlooked.

There are a lot of things I wanna add or change, but I don't own those, and it's a matter of building my way towards it... but I might be missing some good ideas. I wanna call this tempo, but as a mainly YGO player, I'm not great with decktypes like that. Main wincon is commander damage or simply having more advantage than others can really handle. Mana base is imperfect, but it's a matter of getting my hands on what I need for it. Ramos is pretty much secondary commander here, serving as a near wincon on its own. I will also say the #1 deck I play against is Karador, so the deck does have a decent lean against it.

make me mod and i'll change everyone's names for shits and giggles

When the others approached, the shifter began to withdraw into themselves a bit. Too many people. Too suddenly. Unsure which memories were best here. Instead, they stuck close to Melissa. It wasn't safe for her to run off again, even with those... things she had. They were in a place they didn't know, yet the shifter had already grown a bit fond of her. At least, enough to stay with her, rather than the rest of their supposed companions. Fen seemed fine, the fish seemed harmless, but... who could really know? All they knew was that Melissa had helped them, so they would stick to her for the time being. Even as they found themselves before their summoner, the shifter simply listened. A fantastical story of being pulled to another world to save it from destruction, live feeds to potentially guilt or incentivize them into doing what Mauvache required of them, and a Q&A session, all seeming a bit too... neat for the shifter's taste. They patiently waited until a lull in the questions came up, then spoke up. "... Who am I?" the shifter asked warily. "If you summoned me, then you should know who I am... right?" "Ah." Mauvache leaned in and looked at them for a moment. "Ah I see... Yes, of course! You are Devin Kismet! A rather impressive person in your own right. You must be; you would not be here otherwise!" "Devin, huh...?" the shifter's feet shifted a bit, emotion welling up inside of them, "You say that, but you don't sound very certain of it. Am I a five, a one, or am I not supposed to look behind the curtain?" "My, my, don't you be silly. If you weren't what I, what we, needed then you would have not come this far! I may not know all there is about magic but I know this one very well! Not getting the very best for the job is not something I would accept." "So, you're saying... I'm a villain?" The shifter's eye turned red and sharp from under the hood as they looked at Mauvache on the screen, voice a bit more cold. "Why would you summon someone like that? It doesn't... make any sense. You wanted a hero, so you summoned a killer? Ha... there's no way. Either you willingly brought in a monster, or YOU'RE LYING!" As their tone rose, reaching a shrieking yell, the humanoid collapsed to the floor, shaking and shuddering like earlier, gasping for air as their form lost its solid shape. There was no way. Out of all the memories, it was the wicked one...? It had... to be a mistake, there was no way... that was true... "Now, now, calm down. Villain is a matter of perspective. You're surrounded by people who might be considered evil to some. If it pains you so to be told you are such...then you could easily change that here could you not? You're in an entirely new world after all." Mauvache spoke, but the words were lost. Drowned out by a sea of questioning if it was true or not. What this suspicious woman wanted to achieve by saying that. What if it was true? Was their sense of trust in Melissa because she was easily manipulated...? The stress overtook them as they sank to the floor, all muscle tension giving out, passed out.

"So... Hemlock. I don't have much of a mind for combat, so if you've got a plan, just let me know and I'll play along with that." Diana waved back to Yumi softly as the girl took her place near Diana. She didn't really talk to her much, but maybe this would change it? She was about to reply when Yasha appeared, sitting on a desk, and swinging his legs near her. Taking a moment to breathe before she spoke, Nat joined them as well, and Yasha beat her to it. "So! We get to fight Ms. Hemlock. Any ideas on what we should look out for?" Yasha asked. "I mean, she is a Pro Hero, so she's probably going to be a lot better at fighting than us, so we really need a solid plan going in, right?" "Well, lucky for us, we have quite a collection of quirks." Nat said, crossing her arms. "As long as we keep Electrolyte safe from Twilex, this won't be a problem." "[So...] None of us know what she really does, huh?" Diana gave a nervous laugh, rubbing the back of her neck. "I guess we can just Googol it later, and come up with a more refined plan tomorrow? I'm not really sure just depending on a one-shot from Yumi is the... [smartest] plan, all things considered. What little we know about her does make approaching sound a bit difficult, but... It seems like only Nat and Yumi can do anything, so I'm just not sure how to tackle this... [But!] We can do this!" Diana gave her teammates a big grin, just as much to convince herself as to convince them. Cause she sure as hell wasn't convinced. Pros were no joke, and this didn't seem like the best matchup for her... What if she just dragged everyone down? Even Ren would probably fare better against someone like this...

I gave Claude Black because of, well, his nature of being ruled by fear. He grows out of it, but he starts out very fearful about secrets and trying to be able to handle himself properly. Given his birth name is Khalid, his heritage, etc., it's not a shock that he's so fearful. It's not so much selfish or power based, but it is fear. He greatly overcomes this, though, and manages to swing it into its more positive aspects with time. Rhea is a bit of a zealot (WR) and is heavily, heavily ruled by her emotions throughout much of the gameplay, so I thought red worked. And ye, I always have fun examining casts through different lenses to get to a better understanding of them.

Papa John's is the worst, but Pizza Hut is better than Dominos. At least hand tossed is.

Order will be left to right, row by row. Colors are listed left to right in order of importance. For example, RUG would be Red then Blue then Green with assistance from @PhoenixOfCute!

How do you find the drive to do anything? To not just be crippled by fear of time and futility? fsteak?

jolene/10 why though like i'm upset because it's good but it's such a fucking shitpost wtf 7/10 well, i cried, both due to context of the song as well as general sentiment of it still not my favorite singer, but the song is amazing, so 9/10 oh shit it jolene wat up Something feels a bit off about it to me, maybe it's the singer, but unsure. Overall, good listen. 7/10

The way they were going felt... wrong. At first, it was just uncomfortable to be in such a wide open city environment, with flying cars that put Duel Runners to shame, but it only got worse as they went. Things seemed to get seedier and seedier as the shifter tried to catch up to Melissa, until they were headed through what was likely the red light district. And, as luck would have it, the stares grew more obvious. Burning into their skin. Sure, their hooded appearance would draw attention... Especially if they were following a young girl... Through the bad part of the city... Oops. "Melissa!" the shifter called out, closing their eyes as they sprinted to her side in one final burst, breathing a bit heavily as they stopped in front of an alleyway. "I don't think this is the right w-" "Hey. Who're you, huh? We're the Spike Brothers and we know everyone in these parts. But we ain't never seen you before. Where'd you come from that you think you can just walk on past without so much as a gift for us, huh?" As the two of them were surrounded, memories began to roll in their head. How would they react? What was the correct course of action? After all, stepping down to the level of these boorish men was stupid... But it was clear there would be no talking their way out of it. So maybe, just maybe... Looking at the seeming leader, the shifter lifted their face just enough to have their eyes meet his, pulling the hood open just so he could see their face, a glimmer of yellow visible to Melissa as they turned. As they spoke, it came out somehow more garbled than before, almost otherwordly. "I don't know. Who am I?"

Pla...Ning? I usually fly by night with it. I have general major beats in my head, but I try to let the flow carry where the rest of it goes for a while. Give players an early chance to figure out what they’re doing in a round table environment, then set them on the path.

>country you are on thin ice bub That said, as far as country goes, this isn't that bad, really. I enjoyed it well enough, so I will let it stand. 6/10 i am honestly bored i'd rather just listen to the funny meme song 3/10 Is this, like, a movie villain song? Cause boy, does it sound like it. Not sure, really? 5/10

I figure you have one cocked and loaded

This makes me feel nostalgic, and I am not sure why. Very, very pleasant to listen to, sad as it is. 8/10 Nostalgic, again, but not in a way that I like. Reminds me of artists like Sara Bareilles that I never really liked. >15 minutes oh no Honestly, not really my thing. Feels like one of the pseudo-blue balls Silvagunner rips, but doesn't feel ironic enough to be one. Yes, it changes later, but I was kinda just... done with it by then? 4/10 it sure does exist i do not care about its existence meh/10 it sure is an alestorm song Like, it's solid. It is. But eh? Honestly, the singing is the worst part of it to me. The rest of it... you could convince me it was a Final Fantasy cover. It has a lot of that JRPG music feel to it, and it's sick, especially the violin. But the lyrics just... don't do anything for me. I think they actively detract. it's like alestorm's answer to nickelback's rockstar I know it's ironic. But. The singing doesn't measure up to the actual track, in my eyes. 6/10

i didn't realize yours ended it's pretty good, reminds me of stuff like dragonforce, in a good way 7/10

idk you can make this a roast or just be honest, either works now off to listen to music then watch sai play murder game

It feels like something from late 90s/Early 00s pop rock. But also makes me think of FLCL, for some reason. Not bad, not outstanding. 6/10.

kkona clap It's fine. It made for good BG music, though the end was odd. I could see it being a thing to pass my time to, just probably not one I'd focus on. 6/10
