@HHHRVD55 lowering the requirements to Mania so you can get in, will raise them back for when we have to do an open recruit before the event tomorrow, but you're good now. Also, accepted a request from jose23, is that anyone here or did we just get a random?

Oh yeah...don't do that. Just immediately Pro them. You get less xp from a fully trained card than you would from all the cards used to train it.

I was gonna say the same thing, we have plenty of space at the moment and it'll help you boost your deck quickly at your level. Plus with a combination of High Level/Low Time players for the cards and Low Level/High Time players for points, it should hopefully level out Working on Corbin at the moment since he'll make a Hardened Pro to compliment Lesnar and push me to Hardened tier in ranked. At 105/155 and am still doing +5, but having to carefully select opponents.

Yeah this is a combination of Isiah finally feeling somewhat like himself after his tragedy and Chicago losing their only true point guard AND best defender. But it's still gonna be an interesting series that I think will be the only series in the first round to go 7.

That's kind of what I was envisioning when we decided to go casual actually, working as almost a "farm system" for the hitmen. So if someone needs a break or if there's a gap the hitmen need to fill there's a second team to work with.

Alright, with pizza moving up to the hitmen (congrats by the way), the vipers have fallen in my lap. So if we have any EWBers who don't already have a team or any of the hitmen are wanting to drop for something more casual before moving back up, just let me know.

Well @Ace if you do leave the hitmen, there is conveniently a more casual EWB alliance that just had some spots open up

Yeah that was absolutely insane. I can't even imagine grinding like that. When someone puts in effort like that it really makes everyone else step up. Thank him again

Technically, it's a tie with GTA V (PS3 and PS4), but I'm giving the title to the borderlands franchise. Borderlands intitially on 360, then again when I switched to PS3. And borderlands 2 and the pre-sequel on PS3, then the handsome collection during a PS4 sale. So 5 separate purchases for the franchise. And will buy Borderlands 3 the day it comes out.

Is there a slot open on the Vipers still? My team of randoms got a total of sixteen shards last team RD.

I wasn't too upset with the Celtics not making a move because I like our core team and I appreciate the confidence in the ones that brought you this far. But I was a little irritated that after all the "Trader Danny" hype, there was apparently nothing. Until it leaked what the Pacers wanted for PG13: The 2017 Brooklyn pick (currently projected #1 pick in a loaded class) and three out of the following: Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, Avery Bradley and Jae Crowder. Don't get me wrong, George is great. But he's basically said he's going to LA in a year and Indiana can sit and look at him until then for that price.

And what chips do they have for George? Just seems odd to hear them chasing after a guy Boston has been openly pursuing when Boston has the most trade chips in recent memory. And if Larry Bird signs off on a trade with LA, the universe might implode.

Has anyone tried the glitch from last TeamRD and had it work? I think it got patched.

It seems like sacrilege to even hint at giving away a potential number one pick this year in the Brooklyn pick but the top of this class is all guards, which Boston already has plenty of in Thomas/Bradley/Smart. This is the time to make a move with picks, expiring contracts like Amir Johnson and Jonas Jerebko, and young guys like Rozier.

@damshow Reportedly, Brad Stevens wanted nothing to do with Cousins because of his attitude and his say is carrying a LOT of weight with the Celtics office right now. And really? I'm happy with the Celtics team right now. We are making waves and have done so mostly organically. I'd love a true star to take some weight of off Isiah's shoulders, but I love this team. Okafor would fill the holes we have and Butler would obviously be a huge acquisition that would give us firepower against Cleveland. But I'm mostly just sick of hearing about it and wish Boston would either pull the trigger or make a statement shutting down the rumors. Also, please don't trade for Melo. That's not a thing we need.

Huh just got another mania pull as well. Gonna try to drop down and clear a board at survivor then back to mania, I'll report back but the bug might not have been limited to team RD. Edit: Update - it doesn't work anymore, but if you didn't get to finish the set last night like I did, you should get a tier pick as your next reward.

I'm unfortunately just in mania tier, but this has let me get pairs for Kane, Roman Reigns and HBK. As well as a single Asuka and Foxy, Apollo, Goldust and I'm pretty sure another I'm forgetting. I wish I was in a higher tier but I was waiting to pull the trigger on higher levels to keep my RtG and RD decks balanced.

Yeah I know it'll be good in the long run. I just worry since I'm on console and another game mode will probably only increase wait times for matches. All the changes sound really positive in theory.

Not sure I like quick play becoming competitive without the stakes, I enjoyed the randomness of it as it was. Sombra looks amazing though. Can't wait.

I'm still alive, just had a rough week at work and not much time to grind. I'll step it up in the coming weeks.

@RPS Its an open slot, we only have 9/10 people. So your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to literally be better than nothing. Shall you accept this daunting task?

I never got the 600 credits. And just finished my sixth survivor fusion to get Edge....which is my fifth single survivor fusion card....and a Vince. I have gotten Vince, Edge, Ambrose, Roman, KO and Whichever Bella. I mean it'll make Mania fusions easy I suppose. @Little Red Srarvette the Mania is Ambrose and the SS is Sami.

@RPS I doubt you'd weigh us down considering tomorrow you would have a Wrestlemania card. 10 is better than 9 in my opinion, right? I assume it's like every thing else and based on card totals not an average.

I forgot I had left a diva in for training, swapped over and that pushed us into mania!

I vote we keep it EWB. Opening it up just seems wrong. And my thought is that 10 active people beats 8 no matter the cards. So let's fill two gaps!
