    Climbing Ascensions as Watcher is infinitely easier than with Defect in my opinion.

    If it helps, the Heart follows relatively fixed patterns. On turns 1 / 4 / 7 / 10 it applies various buffs to itself. In between buffs, it will do a large single attack or a multi attack on one turn, and the other attack on the next. So with Runic Dome, theoretically the only turns the Heart's...

    It's not the strongest, but the coolest interaction I ever found in this game: Forethought+ ( 0 energy): Put any number of cards from your hand on the bottom of your deck. They cost 0 until played. Unceasing Top Basically any time you draw Forethought+, you pitch your whole hand. Then you...

    What I love about this game is that it makes you feel as if you're 'discovering' some new synergies every time. I had a run yesterday where (on top of having Membership card and two upgraded wishes and a bottled Apotheosis), I got the following combo: Duality (whenever you play an attack...

    That combo requires two Meditate+ to pull off turn after turn, correct? Watcher is so much fun. A little mathy at times, and probably a touch OP. Runs feel much easier with her than the others, but also somehow more unique. My only complaint is that scrying every turn (with some decks) can be...

    Any of you playing the new Slay the Spire character? It can get up to some busted things... 720 damage for 2 energy.

    Oh man, what a great thread. I missed this one because I was on my honeymoon in Japa(h)n.

    Tremendous effort as always. Well done Kirb!

    I think with targeted discard it kind of straddles the line of fun/anti-fun. It's not as blatant as Hymn to Tourach, but I've certainly seen high-level players express their discontent with Thoughtseize in Standard environments. It's not surprising that, if you have metrics other than power...

    Balance falls in the category of spells that make me feel bad (apologetic?) when I cast them.

    I saw some controversy on Twitter about competitive Magic being moved from paper to Arena. I always thought of this step as inevitable for the viewing experience, but maybe others feel differently. It doesn't really affect me either way. Do we have opinions on this?

    I tried hard to make Smallpox work, but even in decks that seemed ideal for it, casting it usually felt suboptimal compared to other options in hand. +1 for Brutality though.

    Am I reading this correctly? If it happens on your turn you have to lose 2 life, then gain 2 life?
