It's been a minute but I finally managed to get back to Infinite rank on #MarvelSnap, this time using Daken combo and Negative Jane. Still F2P!

Last minute mythic on #magicarena tonight. Had to give up on my pet omniscience decks and switch to Vivi Cauldron to get there, still took a while. I wish Arena had an emote that was like "Please let me win, I just need 1 more to rank up!!"

Went ahead and finished the main story of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 tonight before doing any side stuff. Such a fantastic well-done game; outstanding ambience, graphics, combat, music, story, everything! Possibly now my new favorite JRPG[^1] of all time.
