Alright @fabtcg.com, I share my birthday with you, so here is my birthday wish. Please complete this cycle and give us Spellblade Onslaught. And if you see fit to let me or the @rathetimes.bsky.social spoil it, I'll write a spoiler article befitting an Arknight and worthy of the Annuls of Sutcliffe.

I agree it's unlikely to change, but I would argue that Felling pushes the needle towards even less variance in FaB on a macro level, because it homogenizes decks. When you sit down against a Florian, there's no "I wonder if they're on the disruptive build or the aggressive numbers build"

(nor should there ever be, because Felling is a messed up card)

Imagine if Cadaverous Tilling was a 6 that came in for 9 when you decomposed, but Felling was always a 3 for 6 and decomposing only gave you the disruption effect. There might be an actual decision to be made between those two versions of the cards, but there is no competition to actual Felling

The best majestic cards are too powerful. There is no real decision to be made when you're building an Earth hero and decide to put Felling of the Crown in your deck. No other decompose card comes close to competing with it on any axis.

I think RKO would still win in a straight up nickname fight, but Cheato/Cheeto being synonymous with that piece of shit is some straight up..

Greetings all, the IP3 is planning to return next week but we would love to hear what you want from us in 2025. Do you want more yapisodes where we just chat about the game or more debate topics like if mid-range truly exists or more structured content on how to play better and analyze the game?

Hey @fabtcg.com this really the kind of content that should be supported and rewarded? On top of the past transphobic and misogynist comments. I wouldn't want a Scarf promo from this stain even if I was offered one. #fabtcg

Those 3 heroes all being in the Top 8 is almost poetic. Also, look how stacked that Top 8 is! And the game's first World Champion is also the first LL Calling Champion. Format balance issues aside, you've got a perfect first Living Legend Calling for the FaB history books.

I think the coolest part about the Chicago Calling Top 8 is that the first 3 heroes to hit Living Legend in the game were all represented. Starvo and Chane were the first to hit LL in CC, but Viserai beat them to the punch by LL'ing from Blitz a couple months earlier. #fabtcg
