No I donโ€™t care if AI art gets used for internal playtesting cards. We used to playtest with no art, and it was worse in every way. Shoving something random on there from Google images is the same thing. If they start publishing AI art then wake me up. #fabtcg

You know kinda true. Have stopped doing reps against her talishar because itโ€™s just not a learning game.

Donโ€™t make FAB content. Go to the beach instead. Touch some sand or something.

Haha I know. Just joking.

Agreed. Everyone needs to collectively support Scott in growing into his role and getting even better costumes.

To be fair from the first time we saw you casting the audience knew you could do it! Just takes some time for your brain to catch up with your new reality!

So ahead of the game.

So I havenโ€™t been able to eat most nightshades, like tomatoes, bell peppers, etc. for a while, but chili was always fine. Though now it looks like I will have to give up chili.

Thankfully it looks like potatoes are fine for now. Completely different type of irritants.
Lol Iโ€™m so washed.

See I am of the opinion that if the community, and LSS by existing with a specific attitude towards discrimination force people to moderate or temper themselves. That is the system working. We donโ€™t want people pushed out and radicalised. We want them calmed down and brought back into the fold.

Nothing wrong with forcing a king to sign a document guaranteeing the rights of landowning peoples.

Well thatโ€™s exactly what they have done with multiple cards including generics in this set.

Apparently for the weekend this works even if you are blocking with a 6 power. Unsure exactly why, either it was misprinted, or the judges ruled it wrong and it would cause too much confusion to correct it. Unsure for now. Maybe an errata but would be a weird call after skyward serenade was left

Ouch Sorry @samobyrne.bsky.social , you seem to be cooked!

So I mean it looks like some solid reprints are coming. I am happy, I think this is a great move by LSS, and I expect these are the test cards before they actually move on to other key staples like CnC. #fabtcg Warmongers just became affordable for a lot of people.

Every card in the set that isnโ€™t a brute class card. And look I know what you will say โ€œyou donโ€™t have to buy both Lyath and Pleidesโ€ but that ignores the fact that most players that donโ€™t collect a single hero or deck do collect by class. Just a thought. 3/3 #fabtcg

12.09.2025 13:08 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

The trade off is that to have a full collection for a class, you donโ€™t just have to buy your class cards, you also have to buy the cross theming cards. Consider a guardian player in Super Slam faced with not being able to just by the Revered cards and the guardian cards, but actually they need 2/3

To follow on the idea that FAB spend has increased consider this. In many older sets, like outsiders, there was a very tight pool of cards you needed to play one of the classes in a set. But the trend recently is towards draft friendly set spanning themes like Pirate. 1/3

Fantastic Iโ€™ll take 3

Flip it good. Real good.

Itโ€™s a solution to half of the problem. Felling is a different problem. Both being present at the same time is a clusterโ€ฆ

Idk felt underprinted maybe? Earth heroes are pretty popular.

Except you donโ€™t move generics around by selling them. You just put them in a box until they are good again.

11.09.2025 17:22 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Well this is sort of the hole LSSโ€™ system creates. Cards donโ€™t necessarily get that expensive if they arenโ€™t multi-year playable staples that arenโ€™t reprinted often enough.
I donโ€™t think cnc would be 70ยฃ if we had rotation from the start. The natural correction of โ€œI wonโ€™t buy itโ€™s gone next Xโ€ etc
