    that's right, i've been following these the whole time. every time belarius posted a bulletin board nonsense with netrunner, i've been collecting them in a folder to post when i am back on my website bullshit. i am truly undefeatable.

    hope you didn't lose faith in me belarius.

    doing something i've never done before and saying that the new jinteki card looks really neat. i can't review it yet because i kinda lives and dies on its support, but it looks good!

    anyways, gotta fix some bugs with the attribution at the top of a post. I'm getting the cohost pill avatar on accident.

    Post attribution. It wraps to the next line and looks broken.

    and the tags aren't working as expected. whoops. gotta fix that

    Post tags. They wrap in an unintuitive way.

    on top of all that, a lot of things are Not Great in a "I need to write better code to prevent these issues" way. especially with the css.

    I made a new system to upload to my blog via drafts. It's really jank and barely works, but that doesn't matter in the face of being able to post worser fasterer. it's like what cohost user @blep said about what cohost user @ewie (that's me) said: you gotta make it easy to post.

    what a nightmare. the rss is broken, the mouse is broken, the comments are broken, and the theme picker and search bar are broken. just the site y'all. i'm hoping to get it all fixed this week, but it is what it is.

    I'm pushing the new site so there might be some bugs or issues with the rss or design. Please be patient while the site sucks. If you notice any issues, you can dm me on discord if you know my discord, or you can email me at [email protected]. Thanks!

    I really don’t know how to feel about this card. It’s exceptional on turn 1, giving you the entire turn in one click, but I think it’s kind of dogshit outside of turns 1 or 2. I’d ask myself, “Would people be willing to run three copies of this card to maximize their chance of getting a free turn in turn 1?” but the answer is immediately and obviously “Yes”. We’ve seen time and time again in multiple card games that people are willing to trade a lot to get a really strong first turn.

    I’m going to remain mixed on this card until it either sees massive play or no play. I’m currently…

    The online TCG Hearthstone has a statistic called drawn winrate. Drawn winrate, to keep things simple, is a measure of what the expected winrate of a deck is in games where you have drawn this card. Another way of viewing this can be, "How much more likely would I be to win if I drew this card right now?"1 All of this brings me to Rashida Jaheem, so let's talk about her.

    One of the great failings of Rashida Jaheem is, I would venture to say, she has a high drawn winrate. An early Rashida can really give you the gas you could ever need, and then some, and if you never draw her, you can find yourself struggling to get the cards and money you need to get your game plan going. Now imagine the d…

    Cheap facecheck dropped. We’re losing Ice Wall, so this will be appreciated. I have no idea if they’re going to print a replacement for Border Control as well, but cheap ice always see play, and it doesn’t hurt that this is immune to the currently (and likely futurely) very powerful Arruaceiras Crew.
