with communication, but I don't wantto say entanglement, engagement there, engagement
engagement. Yeah, I don't wantto say entanglement. It sounds like yeah.

(02:46):
So, uh, tonight we're gonnaget started with, uh the balance
update that we had on the sixth, So the sixth, Uh the first
update. Oh that's not it,so sorry. It wasn't the sixth,
it was the ninth. So oh, you guys have been playing this for
the last couple of weeks, butwe just wanted to go over it real

(03:06):
quick because we didn't cover it inour last cast. So the first update
was to Claw and this guy.They made this guy a beast. I
mean they changed him from a five. Well he stayed five to four,
but they changed him from a plussix to a plus eight. So to

(03:29):
go to tell me about this cardand how you know, I know we've
been using it for you know,a good time, So tell me how
you've been using it. So whatI've been using him in right now is
like a blink blink and nock turndeck. It's the one where you're just
trying to get some power across theboard and just just move things around,

(03:50):
you know, having him come outblinking out, you know, Jubilee,
if you weren't able to get himor even you know, to admit it,
but I have him playing leech.It is insane. You get the
extra power on the other side thereyou are absolutely annihilating people. He is
a monster forced to be reckoned withyou put him out there, and most
of the times right now, Ikeep running into people who want to do

(04:11):
control. It's so fun to throwhim on the lane they professor X.
A lot of people forget that thereis a monster waiting for that to happen.
So it worked out really well onmy turn six play, waiting for
him to come on that point.Instead of going, oh, let's do
our big you know, throw amagneto, let's throw out whatever, I
can just do this and win thatlane because they're not ready for it,
and it's been great. I'm allabout this buff. Yeah. So it's

(04:31):
really cool because they made this cardusable again. Right, so at five
six or at five him giving sixpower, he wasn't bad, but I
feel like a card at that athis cost, it's detrimental. You know,
there's so many other good five coststhat are versatile where you know,

(04:54):
you have Lady Death Strike, whichthey had some nerve. We're gonna talk
about that, but yeah, shewas doing really well and even with her
power, it didn't matter that theynerved her. I mean, she's she's
down one power, but she hasa great effect. Right, you have
vision, which is you know youplace him. You can move them,
it doesn't matter, you know.So for him to be a you know,

(05:16):
essentially a five twelve, now he'she's on par with a magneto.
Just split power, right, soyou have four power in one location eight
power in the other. So hemakes him more versatile in that sense.
Before he was out what a five, five, ten, and it just
didn't really cut it, right,Like if you play six power two a

(05:39):
location, it's just like, okay, well, other five costs can beat
it, right, But if youplay him now on you know, eight
power, it could contend with avision that can move. So it's nice
that you have his little four powerto go in one lane, but eight
power in the other, and itmakes him a contender to to just put

(05:59):
in any kind of deck nowadays.So it's a really good change. I'm
glad that they did something like this. I know you spoke a lot about
you know, when you play ProfessorX and then you know you're locked out
of that lane not anymore, right, you know, claw gives you eight
extra power in that lane. Youknow, it could beat out a Jeff
that moves there, a buff Jeff, you know, like if he have

(06:23):
he got buffed by else a Bloodstone. You know, he he could beat
that out, so you know hehe could do a lot of good things.
The only thing is don't play himon the right. You know.
Yeah, I've done that accidentally withI would put out something. I go,
Okay, my next card in hand'sgonna be clawed, that's perfect.
Oh wait, I don't want that. I blinked in. I was like,

(06:45):
ah yeah, yeah, especially likewhen you know, the worst part
about playing that deck is because youyou have you play Leech or you play
Jubilee and then you blink them right, so you have Claw, you have
Magneto, you have Red Hulk.You know, those are your the costs
that can come out from a Leechor a Jubilee. Now, the worst

(07:10):
part is having all of those cardsin your hand and you're just like,
well, what do I blink?Now? Blink's basically a dead card.
So it kind of sucks that it'slike that, But honestly, it just
means you have to leave exactly,So I think that that's a that's a

(07:30):
good thing. And uh, youknow it, you kind of know your
you're what is it, you're outyour wind your wind condition, and you're
you know, when you gotta leave. Yeah, your play life. You
really start to attention to what's happeninghere. You see that from by about
turn five, you know what's gonnahappen. You're either gonna take this one
or you're gonna take that one.Yeah, exactly. And it's nice to

(07:55):
know because once you blink, you'rejust like, okay, yeah, I
know what's coming out. You don'thave a oh, I hope it's this
one. You know, you couldkind of like tell okay, it's between
three cards, or you know,if you have a card that's drawn already,
then okay, kep, it's notgonna be that one. So it's
it's it's it's a good change,all about it. Now. The next

(08:16):
card that change was a Lady DeathStrike, and it kind of it was
kind of confusing on why they changedthis. They changed its effect, which
was really good. It destroys allthree you know, three or less power.
It's no longer related to its ownpower, but they nerved it from
a five to seven to a fivesix. Now this card, I'm like,

(08:41):
I said, I'm not really toosure if it was doing like really
well and seven power was like unbeatable. Uh, but you know, I
think right now, if they keptit how it was, even a claw
beats its lane. So I don'tknow, I don't know exactly what they
were thinking, but you know,it changes a change, and you know,

(09:03):
I'm all for if it's if it'sfor the betterment of the game.
So yeah, I don't see itas much anymore. But it could also
be because we have a lot ofLeech running around. So anything you have
to say about this card, No, I'm on the same page with you
with that. I think I stillthink it's kind of funny they would pull

(09:24):
down power on it though, becausewe are in the inflation everything is going
up in power. To have thiscard go down, it's like, how
bad was this really killing everybody?That big of a deal that you're like,
no, absolutely, not one orless. I don't know, it's
it's it is what it is.I was cool with it saying the way

(09:45):
it was, But like you said, if it's supposed to be better to
kind of these decks in line,it's not going to be just an empowering
thing like what Leech is doing.Yeah, yeah, I think that.
I think that's good to move thenin the long run. Yeah, but
I also think, like uh,to to nerve it, like when Blink
is a five to seven, maybethey nerve did it because it was a
Blink was a five to seven.They're like, no, we want Blink

(10:05):
to be the like the premiere fiveto seven, right, because Lady Destrik
was doing really well before she camealong. But also, you know,
like I said, they nerve Leek, are they yeah? They well,
I guess buff buff Leach, soyou could play them turn sooner. So
it kind of like destroys all onreveals. I mean, at this point,

(10:26):
I'm trying to play decks that don'thave on reveals because it's it's kind
of hard to play around Leach,right or or you join them, and
you know, I kind of Iplayed Leach for a bit. I just
I don't find it fun, youknow, and I don't find it,
uh enjoyable. So I had tochange up the style that I was playing.
Hm. So the next card wehave oops wrong one No, So

(10:56):
the next card we have that changewas Ultron. Now they change Ultron from
having his bots be one one tohis bots being one too, which I
think brings this card back from thedead. You know, So have you
played this at all? Oh?Bro I did. Yeah, actually this

(11:18):
is what got me into the eighties, to be honest, this one was
such a fun deck to play.Also, that is a gorgeous variant,
same one that I have. I'mobsessed with it. Oh look at that.
My gosh. Yeah, it's afun deck to play. It's something
that I enjoyed. I remember whenwe first started getting in this game.

(11:39):
I screenshot this when it was inmy shop and I sent it to you
guys, like, oh, mygosh, finally, like I've been wanting
to play this style for so long, got the card and it was like,
eh, it wasn't as good asI hoped, you know, So
to actually have the bots be relevant, that's huge. I mean it definitely
brought it to a point where it'slike, hey, this contests you're able
to actually pull some power here.If you're into playing the Patriots style where

(12:03):
your beef everything up at the end, this is a really fun deck to
play. It's no surprise, LikeI know, everyone was like Ultras the
Ultimate Surprise and stuff, and everyoneknows what you're doing now. But give
it, you know, a month. If it remains the same, you
will for sure lose some eight cubes. Here and there to an Ultron deck.
You're like, oh shoot, Idid not see that coming. So
I'm happy to have him back inrelevant. Yeah. I mean it's it's

(12:26):
like, uh, if you seethem setting up with Patriot and then with
Blue Marvel, and then you're justlike, well, how are they playing
Patriot and there's no you know,there's no nameless cards or like effectless cards
on the field, Like okay,then it's Ultron, right. So it's
just like but you know, atthat point, you're just like, do

(12:48):
they have Ultron or don't they right, because there's a point where you're like,
hmmm, if they don't have Ultron, I win. So there's times
where you might have left and theyhad They just lucked out and they didn't
have Ultra and you just left forno reason. He gave them cubes or
you know, you know, youstay in and then they did have Ultron
and you're like, well, youknow, fuck my life straight up.

(13:09):
In one match I did against him, I leached. I was like,
there's no way I got this,but they didn't leave, and I'm like,
they're gonna do it, I don'tknow, and I throw it out
there and then they did something else, but that they threw up a doctor
that was enough power to win bothlanes, and I was like, how
did I not see the potential coming? Like yeah, it's just like,

(13:30):
uh, you know, I Ifeel like my leach got you know,
did my leech get them or youknow, it's just like or did they
top deck get That's that's the worstfeeling, right, everyone gets the top
deck except for men? How theyget that luck? And whenever I get
leached, it's legitimately when everything isin my hand, I'm like, oh,
yeah, I got the perfect setup. Gone like never mind leave.

(13:56):
It's like I thought I had theperfect setup, but you know, my
leach hitting nothing us at all?All right, So the next card we
have is Darkhalk. This one wasanother surprising buff NERF that they are actually

(14:18):
NERF. Yeah, so it wentfrom a five to four to five to
three. Now the devs were sayingthat dark Hawk was you know, becoming
powerful again. And you know,I'm not too sure what kind of meta
pocket matter they're in, but Iwasn't seeing a lot of it. So
I'm not too sure why the NERFon this, But you know, now

(14:39):
I see him more. I don'tknow, I think it's because Blink is
around, right, So I thinkit might have been a proactive nerf because
Blink coming out and bringing out adark Hawk is is nasty. I mean,
I've gone up against it. I'mjust like, well, I don't
know, I guess I got iteve, So I don't think. I

(15:03):
don't think it's broken by any means. But it's just another deck arc type
that that's on on the on thetop ish, I don't know, you
know, so a lot of thetop decks right now are Blink decks,
so it is it is one ofthe tops, and he could just have

(15:24):
power out of nowhere. I mean, especially with Blob not being relevant,
right, because if you have aBlob in your hand and they leach it,
you're just like, well, youknow, dark Cock just reigns supreme.
So so how about yourself. Yeah, I'm in the same boat with
you on that one. Completely.I think it's nerved just because it's it

(15:48):
hasn't from my meta. I reallywasn't running into him too much. This
was a really out of left fieldthing for me. So okay, because
he's really reigning supreme in these areas, not so much where I'm fighting,
but I know that down the linethey have cards that are like what's his
name? It's the eternals is theone that just puts like a bunch of
cards in your hand. Uh ohuh what's his name? Ershim? Yeah,

(16:15):
yeah, we'll go with her thatone. He I could see them
like maybe doing small changes to preparefor something like that. But at the
same time, at the end ofthe day, if it does what it's
supposed to do, which like whatthe card says, you know that ain't
gonna do anything. You have tobe like negative. I don't know,
like fifteen for dark HUNGK. SoI don't know. I think that that's

(16:41):
it's probably the proactive like you're talkingabout. I don't really see how much
of a relevance is gonna have untilthe next next couple of cards come out.
Yeah, Like I said, like, uh, because Leech is relevant,
Uh what's his name? Geez?I just had the blob. Yeah,
the Blob can't really counteract him becauseyou're just like, Okay, if

(17:03):
I played Leech and then blink,you could bring out that DARKHOWK. Right,
So it's it's like an easy wayseven if they played DARKHOWK a DARKHOWK
deck against you. They're sending stonesin your deck, right, you could
bypass those stones by playing Blink onLeech or Jubilee and get that darkhowk You

(17:25):
know you don't have to be like, oh I got a rock shoot,
you know. So Blink has definitelypaid off in this meta. I think
it would be more fun if Leechwasn't in it, But you know,
we have these metas and we haveto fight through it, you know,

(17:45):
and I know Leech is never funwith uh with the meta, So hopefully
you know, we do have someof the leak stuff. We'll talk about
in a bit, sou. Thenext card we have is, uh the
heck, something like popped up onmy screen and I don't know what it

(18:06):
was, so we have sidelocked.She was changed from a two to one
to a two to two. Now, Uh, what do you think about
this change? Uh, it's kindof an interesting one. I don't really
know how much power you give her. I mean if you start getting above
a three whatever, Yeah, that'sgreat. In reality, this card its

(18:30):
main focus is just give that energyboost. It being a zero, it
being at one and being a two. It's not going to really change or
your whole gold with her. It'sjust to get things moving. Some extra
power is great. I have neverused this card and lost by one point
because when you're running this right,you're ramping. Anything's out and running.
So it's interesting. I don't reallyknow what their their thought was, and

(18:52):
like just one needs to Yeah,yeah, this one, because they took
one from something else and said,let's see this strike will take from you
and I will give this. Yeah, yeah, just adding it's practing,
so yeah, it to me,it's it's a strange move. Yeah,
I mean it's a good support card, not really, I don't really know
what it's supporting at the moment,you know, in this meta because uh,

(19:15):
it was really good support card forThanos. But now Thanos is in
a thing now what's her name,uh rents Layer, Ravona Renslayer. It
doesn't work with it anymore. Soit's always gonna say a two costs.
It'll never go down to a onecost. So that's that's another thing.
I guess they didn't want it tobe in a Ravona deck so because you

(19:40):
could do what is it Ravona?I don't know. I don't even know
it's the comm anymore, you know, because even if you play this on
three. You're gonna play this onthree if you're gonna do a professor X,
right, you're not gonna do likeRavona or play this and then Ravona
like you're gonna need Ravona to playthis or so. I don't know.

(20:00):
So it's just a weird uh move, but hopefully it's it's something that they
are doing because it's going to bea good tech card for some other deck.
So yeah, So the next cardthat we have was uh oh,
of course Leech. You know we'vebeen talking about him. He was changed.

(20:22):
Yeah, he was changed two weeksago and ever since he's been taken
over the meta. Now this cardwent from a five to three to a
four to two. So I mean, it's good that Zabu's not around anymore
because then you would have been ableto play him on three and it would
have been even more annoying. Sothis card basically is fodder for blink,

(20:52):
and you want to play this onfour to ensure that when you blink you're
getting it either five or six costcard, and you run very few fives
or six costs. So you know, like we were talking about earlier,
you know exactly what you're gonna tryand get so it's a It was a
definite buff and you could tell becausethe whole meta is revolving around this card.

(21:18):
Oh yeah, how about yourself,dude, this has been in existence.
And then I said joining this like, I'm so sick losing to this
every deck I ran, I likeI said, I started with ultramon you
really just wanted to have fun withthat. And I was climbing up a
little bit and then made I juststarted hitting a wall. I was so

(21:40):
sick of that. I'm all right, I'm gonna do this this uh this
deck actually shout out Troy back here. Uh uh yeah, Tyler. I
was out messaging him a little bitwhen the sent us for spotlight barriers,
and he sent me a deck thatI have been I climbed all the way

(22:02):
up to the nineties, like thetop of the nineties, and I have
been just fighting for my life withthat deck. But yes, this is
one's in there. And uh eversince they did that in joining, it
is a lot more enjoyable. Butyeah, and this thing is rampant just
owning it and then you get itdoesn't ever have the leaches in there.

(22:22):
What the heck? I thought?Of destroyed deck and someone leached me in
it and I was like, whatare you doing this to me? Stop?
So it's like, dude, hedefinitely needs to get taken down a
peck. And I think it's likewhenever he's in the meta, it's like
you have to either play it orrun a counter to him. But there's

(22:45):
there's hardly every counter to him,you know. It's just like any counter
to him is what play leads yourselfor Cosmo if you can catch a Cosmo
on him. So it's it's likeit's it's very tough to play in the
Leech meta if you're not playing ongoing. So because you know the game revolves

(23:10):
around on reveals. You know,some of the strongest cards are on reveals.
So for a card to you know, it used to take out everything,
which is crazy, but now Iwonder why they just had it target
on reveals. That was or youknow, like why not ongoings? Right,
we have Cosmo for on reveals,but also I don't know, it

(23:30):
was kind of weird, but youknow, I'm not trying to change it.
So yeah, overall change the leachreally buff and he's taken over the
meta, so yeah, next cardwe have is a saur On. He
changed from a three to two toa three to three. Anything to say

(23:56):
about this? Yes, they did, they have changed in I haven't played
him since the change because on revealis dead, so I'm not even trying
it. Yeah, And I mean, if you don't get him on three,
I think, uh, you're justplaying around, not playing him,
right, because like that, yeah, you're like, okay, I gotta

(24:18):
just something else. But now thelikelihood of be being able to do my
Schury play is probably dead because Idon't know you should because she's four.
But yeah, I just I didn'teven attempt to play so On. That's
a deck I haven't ran in awhile. I don't think anyone has since
March of last year. Yeah,honestly, I think it would be good

(24:38):
in the leech mata because if youget soar on three, you get Chury
on four. You're playing Schury thesame turn a Leech would get played,
right, So you do have achance, a better chance because the the
on reveals aren't. The two unrevealedcards you going to play in a soar

(25:00):
On deck are definitely before the Leechplay. So I think it can work.
I haven't tried it. It's justit's so, uh what is it?
Everybody knows once you have a soreon oh sure, you know.
So it's like you don't want toplay a telegraph deck because I don't know,

(25:25):
they know what you're doing. They'llleave before you even snap, you
know. So dude, man,I should just go ahead and make a
sore on deck at this point,because now that we have blink and you're
moving big cards around, it mightactually be pretty cracked. It might be.
Yeah, you should try it out. Let me let us know,
or maybe maybe I'll I'll let youknow how it goes. So, yeah,

(25:49):
that sounds good. Also, I'mdyslexic. I think it's not Tyler,
it's Tyrell. Why t y re L? So I just uh
shout out. I appreciate a compall right. So that was the balance
update for the uh the eighth.We're gonna go ahead and go before we

(26:14):
talked about, you know, lastweek's card and this week's card, we'll
go into the leaked information, theleaked update that's supposed to be happening this
Thursday. So the first card,it's been a long time coming and I'll
show it here. Uh, letme read what they're changing. So it's

(26:38):
it was a three three, it'sgonna be changed to a three to two,
but it's gonna get plus two powerfor every other card there mm hmm.
So it gets a nerve in itspower, but it's ongoing effect gets
a buff Oh, it's your yourother cards have plus two. It's gonna

(27:02):
say your other cards have plus twopower. Now. I think this is
a long time coming. Captain Americahas been one of the most cheated cards
out of updates for probably a year, the whole game, probably the whole
game. Like it's embarrassing to haveone of your main hitters not hit,

(27:26):
you know, like he's one ofthe founders of the Avengers and he was
nowhere to be found. So soI'm glad they're making this change. It's
a long time coming. Now,how about what do you gotta say,
Dakota, Dude, Yeah, CaptainAmerica before this buff was literally just the

(27:52):
skinny Captain America. Steve Robers evenbecame Captain America. So it's like we
finally are getting the Captain. Thisis great. We're starting to see some
changes here. I hope they buffetmore, even like, you know,
it's like, okay, cool,that's a good start. Let's keep things
moving because everything is so high rightnow, all of our power is just
way up there. Let's keep itmoving, you know, like we're gonna

(28:14):
be relevant with everyone else, ismake it more relevant. I'm happy they're
finally doing something with this card.It's amazing, you know what. I
so when I was when I wasabout to head home, I looked at
the leak or whatever and I sawthat and I was like, bam,
bam, it's happening. Oh,it's so pumped. So yeah, it's

(28:38):
cool, he's actually doing something.Yeah, and if we if we look
at it, if it's in afull lane, this card is going to
be a three eight. Right,so he has two power, he gives
two others two two plus two tothree three other cards, so he essentially

(28:59):
is a three eight. Now wehave enough cards that can counteract him,
right, we have Magneto, wehave Polaris, we have Cannonball, we
have you know, on top ofthat, we have White Widow. So
it's it's an easily counter counterable card, but it's a card that actually can

(29:25):
contend with other cards. Now,so it's such an amazing thing. You
know, I'm so happy. Idon't I don't know what to say.
It's such a long time coming.It's it's gonna be It's gonna be good
for him. Can also surfer,Oh my gosh, and him along with

(29:48):
Lanes just that and Brute alone isdisgusting, nasty. Man, that's gonna
be insane. I got hills themmost to lie in. So uh oh
man. So the next card thatwe have that is changing is uh,

(30:10):
you know, keep it ongoing,right, is actually Spectrum. She is
changing from a six seven to asix to six. Effect's not changing.
But I'm just gonna read what theyhave here. The developers expect the buff

(30:30):
On Captain America to be significant forthe ongoing Spectrum decked. It is nice
that they have foresight on this andnerve Spectrum a PowerPoint. If it isn't
as strong as they expect to be, they can always give her her point
back. The future will be tellingof Spectrum's fate. So, well,
what do you think about this hither just changing, just losing one power.

(30:51):
I think that's fine. I meanagain, with the way that because
ongoing has been very prevalent. Obviously, when you have such a strong leap.
Anything that's going to the opposite makessense because if you're able to stop
that with Cosmo or whatever, thenyeah, that's phenomenal. I think that
she is a force to be reckonedwith bringing her one down. I'm not

(31:12):
too upset with it because normally everythingelse you're playing is already going to beginning
two, so her going down oneis really not doing much. Yeah,
And I think that's the thing isif you bring something up, you have
to bring something down in order forit to be you know, meet right.
So if it if they expect CaptainAmerica to be played in a lot

(31:37):
of ongoing decks, well you haveto nerve something that supports these ongoing decks,
right, So plus two power,it doesn't change that. Everything else
is getting plus two power, right, so are all ongoing. So even
if Captain America gives or she goesdown one point, she's still buffing plus

(32:00):
two to almost all your to allyour ongoing. So it's it's it's a
good trade off, you know.It's it's not as strong as a power
card like Magneto or something, right, but it is making your other cards
stronger to hopefully contend with Magneto soundsgreat, And I was thinking, even

(32:21):
like Cayira throwing her in two withyour ongoing deck to save your aunt man,
to save the stuff that's going tobe you're gonna want to keep safe
along with your buff with Captain Americaand everything else, and then claw like,
dude, this is insane. Honestly, the ongoing is going to be
a force to be reckoned with youpretty soon, and likelihood of you seeing
Enchantress everywhere is very high. Ohyeah, yeah, Enchantress, Rogue,

(32:44):
oh man, all those stuff thenand then again, you know they could
play Cosmo in there. You know, it's another ongoing card to stop,
to stop Enchantress, to stop Rogue. Right, so it's gonna be a
rock rock paper scissors, You're right. So it's it's nice because you're just
like, okay, well who hasthe card? So I like those metas

(33:09):
where it's just like, you know, it's not just one card versus the
other card. There's rock paper scissors. There's three options, you know,
so it's versatile. So yeah,which I think is the best thing.
We can level everything out and howabout just a solid game, And that's
what they're I hope that's what they'retrying to do here with her, all

(33:29):
right, So the next card theyare changing is Luke Cage. Now it's
changing from A three to four backto a three three. Now I'm just
gonna read the uh, the author'snotes again. So this, this change

(33:50):
seems to them from the recent USagent change, which might have made the
combo a bit stronger. It willbe interesting to see Luke Cage and C
three, but this change won't hurtLuke Cage's viability too much overall. I
like this, you know it.It changes him to go back to a
C three deck. But let mehear what you have to say about it.

(34:14):
I mean, C three is gonnabe interesting. That's gonna be annoying.
I hate I hate fighting against three. That's that deck annoys me so
much. I don't know why.Anytime I'm trying to right, I just
don't do good. But yeah,bringing that down again because it's going into
ongoing and ongoing is just such apowerhouse. That does not hurt anything.
You know, you put that ina label, Captain in your find your

(34:37):
back up to three five? Youknow that's nothing. Yeah, and uh,
the best part about this is youcould play Valkyrie. With it right,
so your cards can't go down,but your cards can go up right,
So it's it's another It's another goodthing about C three is Valkyrie can

(35:01):
just change entire lane and make youropponent's lane insignificant. You know. Yeah,
you could have a Red Hulk there, you could have Magneto there,
no Valkyrie even right, and thenif it's in a what is it,
a uh Cerebro deck, then youchange your Saribro and your your mystique to

(35:24):
three as well. Oh man,it's over. So it's a really cool
thing that they're doing. I'm nottoo sure I saw him too much in
my meta where he was with RedGuardian. When they said Red Guardian,
me read it real quick. Ohus Agent, Like, I didn't really
see him too much with us Agent. But you know what, do I

(35:46):
know? This is a leech metaright now, so I haven't been seeing
it at all. Somewhere somewhere,somewhere, somehow, I let's say,
Luke and man Thing and Greg Guardianand it's just the nastiest deck in the
world somewhere. I mean, thosethey're all really good cards, a lot

(36:07):
of them on reveal. So yeah, I don't know what universe are finding
it. It's somewhere when no one'splaying Leech that hasn't seen the entire He's
like, oh my god, thisis amazing. I don't know why people
are to complain about Leach. Idon't see him at all. All Right,

(36:29):
So the next card that they're uhbuffing, I guess is Baron Morto.
Okay, so his on reveal ischanging. It was your opponent draws
a card, said it's cost tosix. Now the new one is the
top card of your opponent's deck costssix until turn six. So if I'm

(36:53):
understanding this correctly, at turn sixit changes back to its original cost.
So I'm just gonna read the noteshere. So Baron Mortar has long been
one of the weakest cards in MarvelSnap agreed. I mean he still kind

(37:13):
of useful, but agreed, Okay, often functioning as a worse Yon Dude
for players in that in that thedrawback could mean your opponent just gets a
free card. Yes, this thistweak to the original design maintains the disruptive
intent, but make sure the effectis more strictly negative for your opponent.

(37:34):
Okay. Author's note says it feltlike any change to Baron Mortar would be
positive, but I'm still scratching myhead. Hopefully it can positively impact this
card's completely atrocious stats, so Iagree. I mean, Baron Morto was

(37:54):
partly used in like Ronan X,right, but the worst part is when
you don't know exactly what you hit, like it would be nice to see
you what you drew, what theydrew, just so you're like, okay,
cool it got the you know,they got a card that was turned

(38:15):
into a six right now. Therewere some games where somebody used Baron Morro
and they gave me a six costcard that I you know, like,
uh so it didn't really change anything. It's just like ooh, I drew
right, Like okay, I don't. I can't top like this anymore.
So, you know, you neverreally saw the benefit of using it,

(38:37):
or you never you know, physicallysaw it. You just had to pray
like hopefully it hits one of theirone costs and turns it into a six
cost. So but you never knewif it worked or not. You just
gave your opponent a free card,which kind of felt bad at times where
sometimes they're like, oh man,okay, if they just if I just

(38:59):
dropped this card. I'll win,right, and then they give it to
you, like, thank god,thank god, blessing, thank god.
Somebody is running Baron Morto. Howabout yourself, What do you think about
the change to this card. Yeah, I think that that's a really big
benefit to it. You're going tobe making it a little more challenging to

(39:21):
move forward in your draw, andI think that's the way it should be,
right. Yeah, definitely puts alittle penalty on you if you're ruining
that. Oh my need need Jubilee, I need Blink and I can't play
him. That sucks. That reallyis a damper on a lot of decks,
and I think that that's just thewise way to go about it.
It should have been that way fromthe rip. I'm glad they're starting to

(39:42):
make this one now. I'm notlooking forward to seeing it because I know
my luck in this game, andit's gonna happen every time I'm like,
oh, he needs this card andit is give me a six of it.
Well yeah, I mean when Ido it, it's like, oh
cool, I made their doctor doomsticks. Well no, no, it's
only six until the until turn six, so it goes back turn six.

(40:05):
Just hopefully it's a card that youdidn't need to play really early, right,
So, I mean it's a goodchange. It's it's something to make
him more viable. I'm glad thatthey're taking this ota to make a lot
of these busted, you know,not in a good way busted cards,
uh really busted, like good busted. Right, So I'm hoping they do

(40:31):
more of this and they listen totheir uh their clients, you know,
what would you call us? Yeah, just they listen instead of players.
So all right, So the nextchange that we have is Grandmaster. He
is changing from a two zero toa two to two. And I'll read

(40:55):
the notes here. This is asignificant, but fairly straightforward change to a
card beloved by many players that failedto find a role in the metagame.
While we often aim cards high onrelease, Grandmaster was a unique case where
we felt our testing was unlikely toidentify the best possible thing to do with

(41:15):
the card. It's just got somany potential applications. It turns out that
we were too conservative. So we'retrying to try a trying out a sizeable
buff. So not bad. Hechanges from a two zero to two to
two. I could definitely see itbeing played more. I think the only

(41:36):
thing about this card is it hasto move to the middle in order to
activate right or it has to movethe card to the middle. Now that
means you have to play very stricton where you're playing cards, right,
and it can't hinder a location.You know, of course this game is

(41:57):
location based, so if the middleseems to be nowhere, then this card
is basically useless because as nowhere hasno effects, right, So unless you
just wanted to move that card forthe points. But it's such a what
do you call something that it's itcould be really good, but you just

(42:22):
don't you know, you don't know. So it has it has a lot
of variety in what it can doand versatility, but very rarely are effects
that this can I don't know whatI'm saying. I don't know what I'm

(42:43):
saying, but it's it's gonna begood for the car card sometimes, right,
It's a card that has a lotof potential, But it's kind of
like, all right, but doI want to do an honor bill again?
Am I gonna have this space todo that? Yeah? It's hard
right now in the current meta forgetLeach. Okay, and Leach doesn't exist.
What's the other thing that was rampant, right, clog? Clog is

(43:05):
still there. And if you're tryingto do something again, odds are you
got no space? Yeah? Thereyou go a lot of times it becomes
a dead card in your tech andjust like I would like to use this,
So say one out of ten timesyou got a chance to like,
oh I finally did the play.It's awesome. But then that's like that's

(43:27):
all it had becomes. So it'scool to have extra two power, it's
still hard to use in I thinkthe meta that we're running right now,
and bring back Leach into the conversation. It's really hard now, yeah,
yeah, and I think that's whatI was saying. It's just like it's
at the point where you can havetoo many options, right with this card.
Now it like you said, it'snot really good in this current meta

(43:52):
just because of Leech. But Imean it's a card that you could play
before Leech, right, but withso many options that you can do,
having too many options is sometimes detrimentalto your game plan, right, So
say, if you want to activatedebris again, you're you're just filling all
your shit, you know, Soit's not gonna be too bad of a

(44:15):
buff. But hopefully these other changeswill knock down what, you know,
what we can or can't do becausethe other change, oh wait, you
know, okay, I'm just gonnahop into it. The other change is
Leech. So Leach is changing froma four to two to a five to

(44:38):
five. And it's about time.You know, they let Leech run rampant
for a good week or so becausethe OTA was on the the eighth,
so we're gonna get the change onthe twenty third, so about two weeks.
So it's not too bad. Leechhad his time. I think it's

(45:01):
time to bid Leach a do andyou know, put him back on the
shelf, and only the hardcore Leachplayers will play Leech. And you know
your turn six will be screwed.So how about yourself? What do you
think? I'm glad. I'm gladhe's gone. I feel terrible. I

(45:22):
have been sleeping good at night doingthis to people, but everyone's doing it
to me, so I have tojoin it. So I'm glad that he's
getting a change. He's getting somemore power too, so that'll be interesting
to see people that do use him, they'll have a little beef through it
outside of what it is. Soyeah, he's going back to five.
Screw it, make him a six, get rid of him. Do it.

(45:44):
You won't second. I'm just sosick of this card right now.
So yeah, I'm happy to dosomething to him because man, I was
hoping last week. I'm like,it's Tuesday, what if we give lists?
Yeah, and it surprised like wemade a mistake. Guys. Sorry.
Yeah, Well, when when youbuff a card where the meta changes

(46:05):
where if you're not playing it,you're going to be left behind. It's
a bad meta, right you.You want to make sure you're buffing and
nerving cards that make other archetypes betterbut not broken. Now. You know,
I know some people say, ohno, just play ongoing. Well,
you know, it's it's not onlythat, you know, there's a

(46:28):
there's a lot of things that thedeck does that you know, the decks
that run leach that you know ongoingisn't even a factor. So it's it's
just a hopefully this nerf are goingback. Yeah, it going back,
but it is actually getting a bufffrom what it was because I think when
it was five, a five cost. It was five three, so now

(46:52):
it's going to five to five.So he's getting a NERF slash buff.
So I think they're doing good byeit. You know, Leach one.
Yeah, Leach won't be terrible.I mean, and you could you could,
uh, you could still blink intoa Leach, right, so you
could. What is it play JubileeAnd if Leech is one of the cards,

(47:13):
Jubilee can get swapped for Leach.So it's not too bad. Mm
hmmm. We're still gonna see him. Oh he is gonna feel a little
harder buff. Yeah. So thenext card that we have changing, there's
a bunch of cards. I hadto scroll down to find Leech. It
was kind of crazy. So thenext card that they are buffing is a

(47:35):
Werewolf by Night. It's changing froma four to four to I guess it's
a nerve slash buff. I thinkbecause the more turns you have with Werewolf
by Night it's the better it's goingto be, right, But they nerfed
it down. Nerf buffed it toa three to one, So it's a

(47:57):
buff in the sense that's a lowercost and the nerve that it starts with
one power. So Werewolf by Nightis a card we've been reticent to let
live at three costs, as thesheer amount of leaping can get out of
hand fast. Yes, very muchso. That said, in the months
since its original release, we've seenwe've also seen a lot of strong and

(48:21):
successful experimentation among three costs, andWerewolf seems to be a lot more fair
in today's world than it did uponrelease. I agree. Plus being able
to start with a small amount ofpower is more evocative of I think I
say that word right, evocative ofthe Werewolf canon. We want the card

(48:44):
to communicate starting week becoming a monster. So how do you feel about the
change to this card. I'm happyabout it. This card was super fun
to play. That was one ofmy all time favorites in October when he
popped out. They're one of thefirst guys I ever got off of one
key as well, so this waslike one of the highlights. I was
like, oh my gosh, thisis great and uh yeah, he's a

(49:06):
monster, dude. When this guygets going, it is hard to stop
him. And I really enjoyed playingthis card. So to have him come
back to when he started, doyou remember what his original it was?
He was a three three three threethree three three. Okay, yeah,
remember it was initially but yeah,I mean, dude, you move him

(49:28):
twice and you're already that's insane.Here's just you're starting to have some fun
with him. You know. Theidea too, is now that shang Chi
has changed on he's not going afternines. Now he's going tense, right,
So there's a lot of things that'schanged in the meta sense. He's
been nerved and now he's coming backto a three cost. Dude, you're

(49:49):
gonna be able to play around himtoo. So that's exciting to actually have
a card move around and fun again. It's a three cost. We got
Surfer, we we got some morestuff moving in with that. That's insane.
So yeah, and I feel likeSurfer wouldn't be his best deck too.
I think his best deck would probablybe in a bounce deck, right,

(50:10):
So yeah, I'm glad that they'redoing good things by Bounce because bounce
is such a unique arc type thata lot of people don't really give time
to and it's not like the gamesays, oh, these are bounce cards,
right, so there there there arevery few cards that actually put cards

(50:35):
back into your hand and I feellike somebody saw it and they're like,
oh, you could make a deckout of these cards, right, So
it's it's really cool. It's avery unique arc type that it's not really
the known, right, it's notlike an on reveal or it's not an
ongoing it's like its own little hiddenthing. So so the next change that

(51:01):
we have is they're changing Leader.Now. Leader is changing from a six
to two to a six to three. And I don't know, let me
just read the notes real quick,he says. Probably not a lot of
Leaders on the balance Bingo cards athome, but this card has been languishing

(51:22):
of late. We were hopeful thatLeaders stocked would rise with the release of
Red Hulk, as that made Leadera clean answer to one of the best
six cost cards in the game.But that's not what wound up happening.
This buff isn't likely to move theneedle in a big way, and we
wouldn't want to Leaders not what wewouldn't want to Leaders not a card players

(51:46):
enjoy seeing too often what these peopledon't write. Even so, there's enough
room to improve that we feel confidenta point of power will be small but
helpful. Bump. I think Thisis probably a really good change. The
power doesn't really matter. But Ifeel like once they take now that they

(52:12):
uh, they're gonna nerve Leach.I feel like on reveals can have a
place to fight back again. Right. I mean, I don't think Leader
was too bad at all at anyyou know, but it wasn't a a
win condition by itself. You haveto have won the early game. That's

(52:36):
the only way that Leader wins.Right, you win the early game,
you play Sandman on five and thenyou play Leach on six. You know
that that's that's basically the game plan. So if you don't have Sandman,
then chances are a note you shouldn'tplay Leader on turn six. You should
have a backup plan or something likethat. So simple change one power,

(52:59):
not bad. Yeah, how doyou feel about it? I'm cool with
it. He's a fun card toplay. He also has a lot of
downsides too. I mean you takea for instance, Man, this happened
before when I was really heavy intomy Destroyer deck. I love playing destroy
Destroyer was such a fun style anduh, I'll never forget it, you

(53:22):
know, So pump this guy.He snapped on me, and I'm like,
I wish he got he leadered andmy destroyer killed. He took my
destroyer, killed everything, and Iwas like, oh, it's like the
moment of just pure joy. AndI'm like, yeah, you know,
he has a lot of benefit toplay, but he also can really screw
you. So I think that he'sgot that really cool fifty to fifty chance
there. And I enjoy this cardif you like playing that casino style,

(53:44):
like this is a really fun wayto play. So yeah, you know,
if he's relevant, that's cool.Yeah. I think he never lost
relevancy. I just think, youknow, people have better things to play
right now. And you know,once Sandman comes back, which you know,
once the On reveals come back,especially with Sasquatch coming out on week

(54:06):
four, you know it's gonna beinsane because you're gonna want to play Bounce
and play a bunch of cards witha werewolf by night. But you know,
once you get the Sandman now you'rejust like no, no, no,
thank you. Uh So the nextchange we have is to uh century.

(54:29):
Now he is going from a fourto ten to a four to eight,
and he's I think he was thisbefore, right if I'm not mistaken.
So for nine was he a nine? Okay, So basically he's gonna

(54:50):
be a four eight, And ofcourse his uh CeNSE out of the void
is always his uh negative power,his power but negative, so he's this
void's gonna be changed to a fouror negative eight. So they say we
have determined it's necessary to weaken thea Nihilis shell in the interest of metagame
health, and this adjustment is inpursuit of that goal. We'd hope to

(55:10):
avoid it entirely. Century at tenpower is a more interesting card, especially
with stuff like scar. To thatend, we've explored potential revisions to Annihilis
instead, but weren't able to finda change we could stand on confidently in
time for this ota. We mayrevisit Century later. If that works that
work proves more fruitful, but fornow we're just reducing some of the bite

(55:34):
that Combo packs for by reverting Centuryto its original SATs. Okay, so
its original stats are four eight.No, I thought it was four nine
to two. But I feel likethis card in the annihilist shell because Anhilis
was taken over for a good while. It is hard to combat negative ten,

(55:57):
right, negative eight is nothing intoscoff at either because you know,
you you get Hobgoblin. You're justlike, where do I make up the
eight power? You know? Soit's any negative power is even what is
it? Green goblin? Right?Negative three? It's very hard to make
up negative power. So I thinkpeople aren't gonna be happy either way because

(56:22):
it's negative power. It's just itsown arc type. And I feel like
it was pretty balanced on in mythought process. So what do you think
about it? The change? Ithink it's interesting that he's gonna be under
the shang Chi. I mean,that's insane. You're gonna be You're gonna

(56:44):
be float some power there that youreally can't stop. Yeah, you're right,
the hob Goblin that's pretty much whatit's turned into. Now if you
send that bad boy over, that'spretty huge too. I always like this
play style. This is something that'sjust so fun, and Niyilis is a
solid it's a fun time. Youknow, you don't like being against it,
but to play it, it's alwaysa good on reveal. So I'm

(57:07):
happy to see that they're trying tomake it not as just destruction. You
play this and it's like, okay, I won that lane. Yeah,
now you have to. You haveto come up with some other stuff.
Maybe maybe Selene might be relevant inthat deck again, because I haven't really
seen her plate as much, butmaybe not. I don't know. I
think that it kind of you canstay in the same play style, but

(57:30):
you gotta be a little smarter withyour moves. I agree. Yeah,
so overall good change. Like yousaid, it is weird that they make
it under shann Chi now I was. I also feel weird, like,
uh, why does the void haveto be the same power at negative power

(57:50):
as the Century? Is it becausecentury is the only one that can stop
the void? Is that what itis? Maybe? So I guess it
is comic that they want to keepthe power this, you know, the
same but negative. So it makessense. But uh, yeah, it's
gonna be a hard time to balancearound something that you have to keep,

(58:13):
you know, if you want tobuffet, you also have to nerf the
or buff the the void, rightif they want to keep it the same?
So, uh, that will bethe complete ota for uh this Thursday,
And it's it's a beefy one,you know. So it's interesting to

(58:34):
say that this next meta is gonnabe insane. So all right, So
I want to go ahead and talkabout the the card of last week,
which was Sage. So I justwant to read Sage just power. It's
an on reveal and it's a threecosts zero power. Uh. She gets

(59:00):
plus two power for each different poweramong all other cards here. So what
I like about this card is ittakes into account your opponent's side as well.
Right, So you have to besmart when using this card, cause
if your opponent is playing say likeBrood on the other side, you're only

(59:23):
gonna get plus two with all thosebruds on, you know, and you
got to make sure you don't haveany plus twos or two's or two powers
or else. You know, youonly get plus two for once. Right,
So it's a very uh, it'sa very interesting card that you have
to play very smart. Now.I don't think it's anything game breaking,

(59:45):
but I think it's just a goodoverall card. How about yourself, dude,
This card is a super fun one. I finally got to mess around
with a little bit in Conquest,and yeah, you're right, you really
got to pay attention to what's goingon on the other side. It's not
just yours. You have to kindof plan it out it can get pretty

(01:00:07):
high pretty quick. Yeah, it'spretty fun. I enjoyed it, Yeah,
especially in a in a negative deck. I've seen it played in negative
quite a few times. It's changedto zero three. You have a zero
five iron man, geez, youknow it it gets you passed, you

(01:00:28):
know, whatever you need it todo. So it's it's a really good
card for a for what it is. You know, it's like it's a
three cost you can play it inSurfer two. But you know there's there
is a lot of three costs wetalk about. There's a lot of threes
right now. That's gonna be something. I'm curious if they change things up

(01:00:50):
as time goes on, because Icould see Surfer really taking leeching back again.
Surfer is gonna be a force toreckon with. Yeah, And that's
the thing, like, uh,surfer has many options, right There could
be so many iterations of surfers,just like what the player deems viable in
their Surfer deck. So it's areally cool card. I can't wait to

(01:01:15):
see what else it can do.I mean, it doesn't really have an
archetype in itself, but very interestingindeed. So so now that brings us
to this week's card, which Ithink we're just gonna spend like two minutes
talking about because I don't think it'sa good card at all. But let

(01:01:37):
me hear your thoughts on it.Oh sorry, let me read it first.
So this week's card is Nomora andit's a five costs six power on
reveal give plus five power to eachof your cards alone at another location.

(01:01:58):
All right, now give me yourthoughts on it. I'm excited for this
one just because of what nastiness youcould probably end up doing. This is
a card that you could probably runwith Blink as well, you know,
like you do believe something out youblink it. If you got two cards
in each lane, Cosmo, Armoror Cossus, like, those cards could

(01:02:22):
go up pretty fast. And Ithink that that's that with Odin is a
pretty good play. I mean,you're not gonna be able to do anythingto
Cosmo. It's gonna be a monsterand a lot of time getting friding like
a hell of deck or you know, some really good power. And again
with Cosmo, you're gonna be stoppingsome stuff too. You got potential to

(01:02:45):
really kind of own all three lanesthere. So I'm honestly I know,
it doesn't look like the best Iwant to play tests how things go with
it, but could be great.Yeah, I mean, uh, I
don't see the merits of it toomuch, just because honestly, it's a

(01:03:07):
five cost card. You'd have tolike if it was a lower cost card,
I could see it working, right, But at turn five it's just
like, Okay, well, ifyou want to benefit off of this card
in general, you have to playone card on turn three, one card

(01:03:31):
on turn four, right, Imean, yeah, you could fill another
lane, the lane that Nomora isgonna be in. You can start filling
that lane and then have the othercards buff. But like, at what
point is it beneficial? Right?Like at turn five if the card is

(01:03:54):
uh, You're you're basically losing thoselanes. So I don't know. I
did have it get played against me? Have you played against it at all
at all? Not yet, I'veget to see it one person who's had
it in the meta. It's beena lot still of it's been the Blink
deck that I'm fighting, it's beenmirror matches, and it's been a lot

(01:04:15):
of Barren Zmo, which is reallystrange. But today has been Baron z
Emo Central I think baron Zemo isjust to take uh you know, because
you want to burn cards from theirdeck. Make sure you burn that leech.
Get burn it before you you haveto face it. Now, I
could see how that can be working, because you know, you're basically uh,

(01:04:38):
taking all your opponents' cards and leavingthem with nothing. So that's that's
pretty good. I mean, theonly bad thing about it is if you
play Gladiator and you pull out theirleach and you're like, oh, well,
I just leave myself. So butI'm thinking about this, Okay,
this is this might be just outlanded. But say you put something like Nima

(01:05:03):
yeah, one lane and then yougot k on your middle lane or whatever
lane you're feeling, so you knowyou can't get chunk chi with that.
Start building that thing up. Youdon't have to rely on odin at the
end. If you hit another oneon that, you're at seven plus five
already rolling with that power. That'snot bad. It's a that's a magneto.

(01:05:26):
Yeah, the end something I don'tknow. I'm just trying to think,
like there's there's gotta be more waysaround this that if you're able to
like protect your one cost, makeit a monster. Have you have the
lane? I don't know, justsomething i'm thinking about, but yeah,
you'd have to make that one costor two costs, you know, really
strong. Right. So it's justlike, I don't think it's to the
point where the this plus five becausethis card is essentially if you have one

(01:05:51):
card in each location, right andyou're playing, say you're playing your cards
on the left side, but youplay one card in the middle and one
card on the right. So turnfive you this card could be a five
sixteen. So I mean, Idon't think it's broken at all. It's

(01:06:15):
very limiting on what you can do. Maybe siloc would have some benefits with
this two, you know, likeI guess because I mean so the deck
that I played against was utilized magic, so it magic on three, and

(01:06:35):
for some reason, on turn fouror maybe five, Yeah, on turn
five they played in Amora. Ohsorry, turn five they played uh what's
his name? Iron man? Ironman? Yeah, And then turn six
they played in Nomora, so itbuffed the iron Man and the magic magic

(01:06:57):
went up to a seven and themoor went h iron Man went up to
uh ten in that lane, andthen the next card they played was absorbing
Man, and I was just like, well, Iron Man goes to twenty
and what is it? Magic wentup to twelve, right, so it

(01:07:24):
is it is a good power.But his nomoral lane was only ten.
So I was just like, uh, it's it's it's very very situational and
you'd have to fight for that situationto happen, right. You had to
make it so like locations weren't detrimentalto you didn't spawn a negative two ninja,

(01:07:49):
right, or your location didn't giveyou squirrels, right, so or
you know, if it did givesquirrels, you have to play Nomora on
five to get those squirrels buffed andthen play in that lane on turn six.
Right. So it's very restricting andI feel like this card is going

(01:08:12):
to be very hard to pull offmost of the times. Yeah, so
you got me. I'm just tryingto I just I just want to dream,
you know. I like this cardcould be great, but no,
you're right, it needs a lotand it in no meta where we're fighting
all these different stuff. It's likeyou've always said, more than just one

(01:08:32):
thing in this deck, because what'slikelihood of you get in a lineup?
Yeah? Rare people want to havebetter opportunities. Yeah, I mean,
especially with people that are playing WhiteWidow. It's just like, well,
there goes my game plan. Soyeah, it's like, well unless you
want to play the freaking nomora ona uh what is it? A widow's

(01:08:53):
bite? Like no, thank you, It goes to zero one and then
you have to fill it in laterlike oh man, it's it's it's a
weird card to make work. I'mexcited to see other somebody else have success
with it. I know the guythat tried to play play it against me,

(01:09:14):
he went to with four cubes againstme, and I was just like,
thank you, thank you for yourdonation so to the Cube Foundation.
But so yeah, I'm excited tosee good things come from this card.
But I'm more excited for the Ot A so could be good. Yeah.

(01:09:38):
Okay, uh, final thing,how many how many keys did it
take? You? Did you getat it? You use any? Okay?
Okay? Oh oh so you boughtit with tokens? What's that you
bought it with tokens? Tokens?I didn't use anything. Oh so you

(01:09:59):
don't have it? You have it? I didn't get okay, okay,
So are you thinking about it.I don't know how about you. So
it took me three. I onlyhad three. Took me three. I
was if I didn't get it inthe three, then I was gonna use
because I'm sixty away upgrade like upgradingupgrades to getting another key, and I

(01:10:20):
was just gonna use the fourth oneanyways. But now I get to save
one. That's good. So Idecided to forego getting this spotlight variant because
it's not as good as the Sasquatchone next week. So and I only
have like sixty six hundred tokens,and I was just like, I want

(01:10:42):
to go for that Sasquatch one.I only got one key. It took
both my keys to get saved.And then I was like, so I'm
looking at my tokens. I' meanI got twenty seven thousand tokens. Mad,
Yeah, so doing okay with tokens. But I'm also looking at like,
I don't see me playing this cardright off the rip not lecture complete

(01:11:04):
at the moment, which is thefirst time, like five months, it's
really weird to say. I'm hopingthe next few months have trash spotlight variants
because it is hard to keep thesespotlight variants. Man, I'm just like

(01:11:26):
this. The Sasquatch one is sogood. The one last week for a
stage was good. The one beforethat, the week before that one with
Nocturn was really good. And I'mjust like, man, they just want
me to spend I really want thatone. Yeah, they really want me
to spend money, which I amgoing to next week. But that's next

(01:11:47):
week's problem. To worry about itright now, don't care. Yeah,
because I really want to get thepro Bundle again. I think it's very
much worth it. It's probably oneof the only bundles that are is worth
it. I mean, so yeah, any any last words for this cast?
