Yeah this is one of the dumbest things I've ever done. I even practiced like 100 games for this event because it's the only tournament I'll get to in like 5-6 months

Except I forgot I had to change trains and now I'm just having a saturday sitting in trains instead of playing a PQ 😬

Both. James has talked about some sets being more on top of the hype cycle than others (not with these words but I can't remember exactly) and I feel like this one is purposefully lower hype and power level. Suits me perfectly at this time

If you re-watch that part of the keynote, it's basically PB with that Iyslander silhouette turning into Silver Age with the fully colored version of the image. It is at least made to look like Silver Age is the fully developed PB. But I also see speculation that it's a supplemental set for PB

Well it was Blitz and I have no idea what the meta is like so 🤷 in CC Kayo is probably fine into Gravy but pretty horrible into assassins and many random decks so wouldn't play it there

Swift Shot 👀 has at least shaken Azalea's hat meta

I've always been interested in limited set design and draft format "shapes"

Is all that done in design or are there cases where dev impacts the way a draft set is constructed in terms of the various dimensions players have to optimize for (class, talent, hybrid, generic, cross-hero mechanics,...)?

12 of the 23 missing Ms are exp slot presumably so we're only really missing 11. And most of them according to my number crunching are Generics (kinda like the Diamond Amulet). But hopefully there's a lot of playable rares and commons missing

Yeah having this much value on one card pays back for the risk. Having arsenaled the previous turn kinda sucks though as that's what you always want to do. So sounds like a Trench angle

You can just run an off-hand. Kayo could play a shield for example. And they've historically at least had equipment after weapons so there's no space if they keep that logic
