Cybernator aka Assaults Suits Valken got a new release on the Nintendo Switch. Shame I don't have a Switch to check it out. Which is a damn shame because all the extra stuff they’re including in the new release sounds pretty cool. Hopefully there’ll be a Steam port or someone might “liberate” that extra content.

Before anyone asks, the Valken and the Leynos here are from the Video Game Robotics toy line, an offshoot of the Shooting Game Historica line by Yujin.

Imagine being a victim of sexual assault by a very famous author, making the choice to come forward despite all fears, and then seeing people online decide that you’ve lied or there’s ’more to the story’ because they love the author so ‘believe victims’ doesn’t apply in this scenario. Then imagine having to live with that.

just came up with the single most evil concept for an EDH deck. commander is this dude:

the 99 would be mostly unplayable shit with literally 0 wincons, but notably includes the following creatures:

(the Serpent and Dandân represent the 14 total creatures in the game that straight up kill themselves the moment their controller controls no Islands, so you would have a total of 17 creatures with text boxes like this)

crucially, you need to INSIST that everyone else at the table takes a look at your cool new decklist before playing. this is where the actual gameplay happens: if they realize what you're trying to do, they will shut that shit down immediately by banning the deck; if they glance over it and go "huh seems weak" they fully deserve what they get.

the gameplan goes as follows:

get one of your 17 conditionally suicidal creatures onto the field

cast your commander

at the beginning of your end step, put two +1/+1 counters on the suicidal creature and donate it to an opponent without any of the relevant lands/colored permanents/etc.

ask if anyone has removal for the shitty creature. your opponents will probably chuckle at this - why would they remove a creature that's about to sacrifice itself?

announce that because the creature is trying to sacrifice itself based on a state-based trigger but isn't allowed to sacrifice itself due to its own static ability, it is creating an infinite loop of state-based actions that can only be ended by directly removing the creature in question. ask if anyone has removal again

"no? looks like it's a draw then :)"

dodge the table being thrown at you

More of the design

Now, lemme talk about my ideas here

Okay so, he doesn't have a mouth, he cannot speak as himself. He can only speak as a conduit, reciting the horrors others are experiencing. (I do think he could use that to speak a bit, by borrowing the words, but it'd be hard.) Which, combined with a body that has not moved for a while while suspended mid-air, leaves it (he/it pronouns BECAUSE) rather vulnerable.

His head is a void, it leaks an inky substance that is not ink. You could put your entire arm into it. The thing is, though, that can hurt him. It's where its mind is, the memories, the remains of self. You can KNOW HIM when you do that, you can mess stuff up, but you can also be gentle. This is why the assault tag is under this, because well, that is kind of what the second drawing is.

Also, his halo thing reacts according to his emotions. Stress, anxiety, fear etc. make it collapse into itself a bit. Anger, shock etc. make it do the opposite.

And yes, the one being petted IS purring

Endless Adventure In Teyvat: Fontaine Edition - Genshin Impact (3/3)

the suits fandom, as a whole, tends to accept jessica but reject rachel and even donna, and at first i thought it was just royal family worshippers hating on meghan markle, but now i realize that (in addition to that) it’s also this: jessica does not ever act stereotypically “feminine”; even gina torres herself has joked that jessica is written like a cis straight white man. and this is not at ALL to take away from jessica’s character—because we fucking stan her—but it is to say that rachel and donna are hated on because they fit more traditionally the idea of “women”. for example, often reacting emotionally, crying, acting “”””irrational””””….. but the funniest part about it all is that all three main male characters (harvey, mike, louis) are often the most irrational, reactive, emotional, cocky, selfish, and toxic characters…. yet donna and rachel are the only ones hated on for acting that way. interesting.
