My online time has been getting spent hunting down cards mainly on Discord. Haven't built a new deck in a long time due to my playgroup mainly playing my commander cube. I am working on proxying it which will free up my collection for deck building so maybe get back into updating my decks and maybe building some more.
How has Puca been treating you? Trades dried up for me.
Hit and miss and usually requires recips but trades have been steady for me. Picking up an OG foil Sensei's Top from the post office today and just got my last Blood Moon committed late last week. I checked out Cardsphere but seems like it has the same issue old Puca had where it was difficult to send out good trades to get points. I figured I would rather fight to get cards than send cards.
I can't decide if I want to swap out Tariel for Mathas in my cube. I already have Marchesa 2.0 as a political general in those colors, so maybe not? I am building a Mathas deck which I'll start playing next month, so I guess I'll see how that goes before I make any final decisions. The one game I've played so far with him heading the precon seemed interesting though.
I didn't realize it was out I'll definitely check it out.
I like a lot of the changes they made, particularly fatigue. A couple of the new things are borderline overpowered (like the katana that bypasses armor and has a 100% hit rate) but it overall feels like a deeper game. I'd definitely recommend it.

I will say I wasn't too thrilled with the expansion that had the super powerful enemies you can't turn off. You just have to skip the mission that spawns them. I'm typically doing Ironman and don't want to be randomly KO'd by an uber boss.

I'm using Queen Marchesa, Kaalia and Alesha in mine. Never was too thrilled with Tariel.

The Chosen may hurt a little. I basically found myself dropping everything else to deal with them when they showed up and the game thankfully lets you get away with that by stopping the mission timers while they're around. You'll appreciate the Reaper as a class for Ironman - ridiculously good scouts and give you an almost excessive amount of information to plan.
Pay attention to how it treats other DLC when you start if you don't want the enemy monarchs - default is to include content without the intro missions. I will say the armor from the archon is one of my favorite pieces of equipment in that game. That combined with one of the new guns gives you an outright broken sniper (always have the high ground, death from above refunds a point when you kill an enemy, unique rifle only takes one action per shot). I could clear half the enemies in a mission in a turn with a single unit a few times.

I'm excited to try it out. I'm fine with broken snipers, I really miss the Archangel armor from the first game so that seems like the replacement but a rifle that takes one action per shot seems pretty busted.

Well...I'm looking at a possible knee replacement, but otherwise i'm okay.

If that's the case a lot of people forgot that second step.
