when my grandpa and grandma first started dating, they wiped out on his motorcycle and she got horrible road rash on her legs and stomach. So my grandpa took her back to the farm, and my great-grandpa, being a gritty old southern man and kind of an rear end in a top hat, just straight up poured a bottle of the stuff the farm used to disinfect wounds on cattle on the road rash

Welp, that's my motorcycle story

He was a right wing idiot who happened to be a the cartoonist for our only national newspaper that fell and got brain damage. This led him to becoming more unhinged and amazingly racist, happy to insult any minority he could get his hands on. Now there are a lot of people crying foul that they're happy he died because you shouldn't attack someone it's not the done thing.

Hearthstone is a fine game but I think it's hilarious that people take it seriously and get mad about it. Like with any videogame that's dumb, but the fact that it's digital cards is somehow more inconsequential. Also lol at the guy a minute into this video who fucks up not because the other person got lucky but because he misclicked. In a turn based game with giant card icons. What a loving scrub.

My favorites are the guys using RNG fueled decks. "I have a 33% chance that this card will win it for me" one guy says, then starts screaming when it randomly picks the wrong target.

Have some nerds getting mad at failed speedruns. And I'm not sure the 3rd one knows how RNG works...

I like hard games, but I can't imagine it being any fun to try and speedrun a game that takes more than 5 minutes to finish. Like you play perfectly for an hour and you're half way there? That just sounds stressful.

Also in ASL chat, Australian comedian Adam Hills usually has a signer up on stage with him, and begins this show specifically talking about accents and racism in sign language:

Or the people who get mad when their own Yogg-Saron kills them.

To explain for people unfamiliar: Yogg-Saron is the single most hilariously random card in the game. His effect, when played, is to cast a number of spells equal to the number of spells the player did prior to summoning him... The catch being that the spells are selected completely at random, and will randomly target any valid targets (as applicable). And before he was nerfed, absolutely nothing short of outright killing either (or both) player would keep the effect from running all the way through.

...And then someone managed to essentially win at least one match off of his effect at the world championships just a few months ago.

Ken Ham's creationist ark museum isn't doing any economic favors for the town it's in, which gave it a big tax break in the belief that it would bring in jobs and is now running out of money due in part to lack of tax revenue.

It sounds like a pretty good card to throw out if you're pretty sure you're going to lose but want to either make it hilarious, or maybe hinge on a 1% chance it just casts a dozen direct damage spells to the opponent.

Pretty much. In a lot of ways it's an "all-in" but without even looking at your hand. But it also shows how bad Hearthstone is. If you remove almost all complexity from a card game you have to stick a load of RNG effects in there to make not every match a complete boring slog. Yogg-Saron just takes that to the extreme.

I played it before the first expansion came out, I think it was like right after it released or something? I couldn't get into it because the campaign mode was super frustrating to deal with and fighting other players sucked. Low level play everyone just used the same decks and same strategies blow for blow, so once you realized 90% of people just watched stinkman420's guide to hearthstone and copied his beginner's deck beating most people wasn't hard. Except for the people who just stacked direct damage spells and only threw out the basic amount of creatures to avoid dying. I hated that poo poo.

There was a video posted here a while back, of poker champ Gus Hansen going all in on every hand, without even looking at his cards and just talking smack while getting stupid lucky.
Those Hearthstone players would be killing each other if they played each other like that face to face.

I think this was it.

Sure, but you've only got 30 cards to put in your deck, and there are going to be far more reliable ones you could put in instead. It's a fine card for when you want to just dick around and have fun, but it's pretty ballsy/stupid to do it at the actual world championships when there's prize money on the line.

It does make for some excellent schadenfreude, though. They nerfed it so that if Yog happens to cast a spell on itself that kills it/silences it/turns it into something else, the effect ends immediately. That makes for some pretty great plays, when someone slams down a Yog that immediately turns itself into a harmless sheep and that's it.
