If nothing else, GA has just reinforced my belief that Second Dinner has absolutely no idea how to design or balance doubling and copying effects.

like, c'mon man. If people are going to tech against ANYTHING it's probably going to be move or cerebro at this point. You have to figure out how to play against something like Mercury from the FIRST TURN.

* Reading Mark Danielewski's new one, "Tom's Crossing." House of Leaves is one of my favorite books, so hoping this one lives up to lofty expectations.

"Just a Khonshu card!"😜

Also, still wild to me that marked cards stolen via Cable will transform, even if on your oppo's side.

- YJ and Wasp just felt bad if not marked by Galacti
- Forge felt clunky
- Invis Woman made things feel even more telegraphed
- SSM was ok, but didn't do as much as I wanted
- I like Esme over Crystal, as she can allow for a 4+3 Shuri line on 7 while not giving oppo a draw (& keeping ZG at 4pwr)

fwiw: players have also noted that
-if you Cable a "marked" card, it will transform if/when your opponent plays the Galacti

Also pulled the trigger on the other portal pulls

we also put in a counter-counter-offer on the house this morning at 8a and should hear back by 8p tonight. Hoping things settle at an acceptable price and we can move on to inspection, getting a fence up, and moving things from the condo to the new place.

Moon Knight inked is decent.
There are a ton of better Thor variants though; this one DEFINITELY doesn't replace Frog Thor.

Oooh, what to spend my tokens on?

A toxic emote?
Borders that only really go with niche horde cards...

So many choices...
