Etasus | Blackjacks Tavern

I agree with the Induction Chamber read. If you remove it, though, the draft is a really fun experience with a lot of interesting lines. People just use that card as an excuse to not engage with the format as a whole

Limited is good, actually, people just don’t want to learn the quirks of FaB draft and want to complain about the system compared to other games.
Throwback to ARC and EVO, two very good draft sets held back by general player complacency and incompetence

We got a lot of spoilers this weekend
So I took a look at all of the Assassin ones (and a few more) and just decided to chat about them
#araknigang is the clear winner of the group, but there's something in here for every hero in at least one format

If you care most about the spoiler season right now, keep your eyes peeled in the very near future for another article discussing the new cards dropping on the 31st! (But also check this one out because I put a lot of time into it thanks)

The Gleeman's Journey - A Custom Cube Blackjacks Tavern is a gathering point for all manners of interesting patrons. Some nights, you may have Gremlins from the Deathmatch Arena, others, a duo of Ninjas. Tonight, we find ourselves with pe...

I know we're about neck deep in spoiler season for PEN and we'll be underwater tomorrow
But I did just "finish" a 360 card fully custom cube featuring Assassin / Warrior / Draconic / Light / Mystic
Check it out!

The Shape of the Tavern After posting my last article, I've been thinking a lot about what exactly I want my custom cube to look like.To recap, in my last article (A Group of Assassins Walks Into a Bar), I created 10 prelimi...

Following up on my last article, starting to shape out some of my custom Assassin+ cube
This time, I made 18 cards. That's 8 more than last time (And about 360 less than next time, assuming I'm able to accomplish all my goals)
#fabtcg

Writing up an article for release tomorrow continuing on my last article about custom Assassins.
Trying to really build out this custom cube, really excited for y'all to read it!
Had to request a specific frame for it, and Fabkit got it up and running in time for release!
Love them a ton!

Turns out knowing the year after the first guess is… really good

I put in the wrong hero for guess number 3, immediately put in the right one for guess number 4, even though the info I gained from guess 3 would have been enough to get me the right answer
Gotta pay more attention

Seems good

For sure
Which, in that regards I’m not sure Harker would be the best Assassin for Light alongside Heirett

Heirett is easily one of the most enticing heroes in here. And yet trying to think of environments for them is… difficult. I have no idea how to support it alongside three other heroes

A Group of Assassins Walks Into a Bar As the year comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the year, reflecting on the game, and thinking about what I want to do next year and in the future. I know I'm not alone in this period of sel...

I did very poorly for having basically all the needed info two guesses in

Jokes on you, Arakni is actually two meeps in a trenchcoat
It’s just that the meeps in Marionette are different than the ones in Huntsman
They’re all siblings
The Hand That Pulls The Strings is also two meeps in a trenchcoat btw
Mama and papa meep

Has anyone ever seen the two of us in a room together?
That’s all I’m saying

There is one set that was printed that I completely forgot existed, which led to this abysmal guesswork

Oh most definitely lol
