Assorted and objectively correct thoughts fired into the ether on strategy games, football, wrestling, and politics.

I haven't written in too long so I figured the new platform was a good excuse for a little project.

I started a feed where i'm reviewing every Ring of Honor show and major match in short form. For the unitiated that's about 500 wrestling shows starting in 2002. Why not?

In case you hadn't noticed, it appears that - better late than never - we have an official Hearthstone presence now.
Join Chromie and 11 legendary heroes from the past, future, and beyond to stop Murozond from ending Azeroth in Across the Timeways - launching November 4.

Not sure if this is well known or not but I'll be providing an English cast of this on PlayHearthstone twitch with Raven and Pocket.

I imagine there's a few bots over on the other place frantically deleting some tweets about how useless Arteta's subs are.

Fantastic shot in the arm for Gabi and Trossard

Can't fault the efficiency of Man United signing Martinez, it makes it so much easier to despise things when they're all in the same place.

That is one of the worst goalkeeper passes I have ever seen.

Actually the single worst option on the pitch.

After reviewing the localization errors in traditional Hearthstone, it's now time for Battlegrounds.

Firstly, we really have to thank the developers for the Battlegrouds Guide, it's a lifesaving feature for us!

Rewatching BoJack Horseman and while the enduring takeaway for me has been how haunting the second half is, it's easy to forget how incredibly dense and well written the jokes are.

Possible hot take but I kind of long for the days of game devs who just trusted that they knew better, executed on their vision and let it hang out there. Constant adjustment on "community feedback" leads to aimless, unfocused games because consumers are not developers or even usually good critics.

Just the latest in a long list of prophecies from your boy at the MT.

I hope he fucking rots.

The fact Arsenal stood by him during the forced period of anonymity is one of the biggest stains in our clubs history.

A deeply unserious company that does deeply unserious things.

But I don't think they're this stupid. I predict some hats worthy of ridicule in our future still.
brief update - my contract with blizzard has concluded. i'm hopeful to return, but i won't be available for hearthstone stuff after today

thanks to all of you - the last couple of years have been so fulfilling and that's because of the team and the community

I watched Amélie for the first time a couple of days ago with my wife and I have become absolutely obsessed with the soundtrack ever since.

WWE: Cements top angle where they concede that the company's a propaganda arm for a brutal dictatorship and that this is a bad thing while consolidating power with other fascists who want to put a massive percentage of their fanbase in concentration camps.

Delighted with the MT so far. Games have been great but also this production team are so refreshing to work with and seem really eager to work on improvements to the show which is fantastic.

Hope that's noticeable already on the stream, because we're going to push to keep adding improvements.

No one had my lineup this event, but also I wasn't happy with my lineup this event, so...easy Furyhunter I guess.

Dismissal of Kai is a great way for me to file all of your football opinions under not worth my time.
Arsenal Premier League with and without Kai Havertz starting, last two seasons.

With/Without
Goals/game 2.4 v 1.5
Win rate 69% v 50%
Points/game 2.3 v 1.9

Just so obviously such a bad idea for so many reasons.
Contract talks with Thomas Partey intensifying this week. Partey's agent was a guest at Sunday's game, with both sides now pushing for a swift resolution one way or the other so that they have clarity ahead of the summer. No agreement reached yet, but both sides would prefer that he stays in London.

I get the get out of jail free card that comes from being on the beach, but I think there's also a huge amount to be said for the reality of what this Liverpool team looks like when Salah performs like a normal fallible human instead of a demi-god.

I genuinely don't understand why there isn't a compilation tape of these things knocked up by Arsenal's video team and sent off to PGMOL every week.

It's petty, but it's the level of petty required.
Arne Slot kicked the ball back on to the pitch there. Thought that was a booking these days.
