#shard on deck

[theminecraftbee]

continuing my decked out obsession: can I say that giving each hermit a cubby to decorate is FANTASTIC and I’m loving how much personality each one I’ve seen has? iskall’s being full of iskallium, stress’s being beautiful and pink, zed’s being a slightly horrifying version of his face, joe’s being a recreation of the guppy geyser… I can’t wait to see what everyone else makes their cubbies into, it’s another little aspect of how personalized decked out 2 is and I love it.

#hermitcraft #plus I suspect we’re about to see those cubbies A LOT #I don’t know how to express how addicting decked out looks #and how much fun it is to watch people play it #this is going to only be stopped from hitting tcg fever levels by the limited number of frozen shards #and even then…….

Say something true!

#critical role #ygifs #imogearne #imogen x fearne #when you’re taking a picture of the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen and the camera falls back and fucking decks you in the face #fearne going it’s ok you don’t need to confess I know~~ while imogen interrupts to say ‘’you’re a loser’’ they drive me NUTSkljsgdlkjs #also my brain is a little beehive cos these two Started with Fearne being the enabler to darker things while imogen was cautious #to fearne Seeing imogen about to be lost to ruidus and hardveering into panic that the power would never be worth losing her #to imogen hearing fearne hesitate and deny the shard and then telling fearne she should do it anyway #the way these two handle the other's Sways in darkness in such a Knowing way - ‘’Are you sure it wasn’t intentional?’’ #there’s like this ping and before it was encouraging and now fearne is scared and imogen is enabling the risk #and it’s like either imogen is silently ensuring laudna’s safety by fearne taking the shard despite any risk #or imogen honestly believes that fearne is stronger even than the power she would embrace. There is no risk. Fearne will conquer this. #so it’s like is it ulterior motives or is it faith or is it hypocrisy or is it all three at once it's so good #imogen spending her entire life running from her power so isn’t it so much easier to tell fearne she can just do it while imogen couldn’t #or is it just her genuinely encouraging fearne from Knowing the aftermath of pursuing the power #but it's like imogen ...... why would fearne choose you over the possibility for power when she's never done that before #and is this insistence/encouragement going to actually reassure fearne or is it going to be another crack #and when they do the ritual fearne asks imogen to be the one to take her out and imogen tries to comfort her by agreeing #and fearne looks on sadly and nods #remembering when she was asked to be the one to take imogen out and all fearne knew was that she couldn’t #anyway imogen's face when fearne said you're in love with me imogen said NOT NOWDSHKJF

Watching Tango give away shards like crazy. Sir.

#tangotek #tangotek fanart #hermitcraft #decked out 2 #mcyt #my art #phoenix draws #hi everyone hes given so many of these out #im sick and watching so much decked out #i hope the shards dont look too bad i was feeling lazy so i just copy and pasted from the wiki

Etho to Tango: "I'll sacrifice one of [my shards] if it'll get you running."

Bruh. Etho just spent 8 crowns to get another shard. He has five left. And he voluntarily wanted to give one to Tango so Tango can run. (Tango who has stacks of these in his inventory.)

#bro what are you doing!! you are stupid silly! #even if it's also wanting to laugh at tango dying and not just because he wanted tango to have fun #but the way he brings it up like 'Actually‚ Tango!' like he's thought about doing this #sir these are gold dust. hermits are frothing at the mouth to get more. and etho says #'I feel like everyone's trying to get shards from you. How about we give you shards. Get you playing.' #like. the level of selflessness and compassion just because he wants tango to get to play the game too #he even literally threw one on the ground for tango; these weren't empty words #(ofc tango's like no no no no no no no) #insane behaviour etho!!! thank you! #decked out 2 #hermitcraft #tangotek #tango tek #ethoslab #tangtho #hermitshipping

I absolutely LOVE when the hermits are just sitting in the DO2 lobby, talking about this and that, sharing strats, bartering cards, comparing deck sizes, punching each other, giving tango a hard time I LOVE IT

I love Decked Out for so many reasons; the build itself is beautiful, the gameplay is fun and engaging, Tango deserves it, the competition is thrilling and the deck-building strategy is intriguing. But by far my favourite aspect of the game is how it has brought the Hermits together.

There are almost always Hermits hanging out in the Citadel, and they gather in numbers for the phase rankings reveal and shard distribution. Tango watches as many runs as he can. It is ridiculous fun to see them all interacting and talking and laughing together.

#the hermits built themselves a babysitting room on the first day #they worked together to build somewhere they can hang out while they wait #with games #and then worked together to design a smart cycling queuing system #Gem hangs out at the Citadel regularly #even once she doesn't have any shards left #just to hang out with her friends #and everyone cheers on each other #and teases each other too #and they discuss card choices #i love Pearl's run compilations #but not seeing any of the interactions that surely happen around them makes me a little sad #I would totally watch 4-plus hour compilations that include some banter #although now that I think about it #she probably streams them #so i could watch the vods #oops #too busy watching Tango's vods lol #hermitcraft #decked out 2 #minecraft yt #Tango Tek #hermitcraft season 9

actually getting a headache trying to read joes post so im gonna go back to sleeping now and try again in a few hours

#woke up from one of those stress dreams.. dreamt that mrs t was streaming from tangos mc account running decked up out #but scar bdubs ren and hypno were also streaming running decked out. and they were all on different levels?? and i tried watching every #singe stream but i obviously couldn't. and the chaos. was gurtjng my brain #but mrs t was her joyful self laughing at scar trying to get more shards #also funny how all the streams were gappening i nmy brain so i couldnt like watch them on my monitors #i think i have a case of too much decked out. #(this was most likely caused from going to bed while being upset at missing bdubs off camry stream. which is concerning. anyways.) #(time for some background rain sounds me thinks. its 6am. ive gotten 3hrs of sleep. head gurts.) #(joe is talking about drinking dead gramnas? i dont. i dont know.) #.post

i think my biggest decked out 2 meta thought is that the hermits are currently seriously undervaluing the ethereal cards on account of them losing them in the future, and in general undervaluing the entire crowns shop in favor of the frozen shards.

the thing is, they're right about moment of clarity; building up your permanent deck is more important than that temporary boost, and moment of clarity just doesn't do enough for any given run to be worth it if it's anything other than 'the only thing left you can afford'. they're right about that specific ethereal card.

the PROBLEM is that they're extending that calculus to the crowns shop. but that's not the same trade-off in the crowns shop! literally every item in the crowns shop is one-time use! so the ACTUAL trade-off there is "will this item i buy help me enough to make up for the number of dungeon runs it took to buy it". when you look at it like that, it becomes clear that frozen shards are probably a little overpriced if you're just going to run easy or medium, and are ESPECIALLY overpriced if you're not sure you can reliably win that run. eight crowns, especially early game, seems to currently take three or four runs to build up, and that's if you're lucky with treasure on all of them and win all of them!

meanwhile, three crowns is one or two runs - one if you're lucky, two if you're not, from what i've seen. for those three crowns, though, you can get one of the ethereal cards, which will then help ensure you win your next run, getting you to another permanent card. for a little more, you could get something like tango as the dungeon lackey, and REALLY amp up your ability to make sure you win a run.

now, later on in the game when treasure is more reliable and runs are more valuable, this calculus probably changes; suddenly, one extra run is worth a lot more than it currently is. it's just that one run RIGHT NOW is worth like, one common card and a crown, unless you add something to it to make it worth more, whereas a copy of like, pay to win, could bump a run up to an uncommon card, and that's way more valuable than an additional run, i think.

#hermitcraft #decked out 2 #<- i should really have a unified tag so i've started making one #anyway love talking meta here. where absolutely no one who could use it will see it. #that sounds like a joke but it actually isn't this way i'm not directly backseating/metagaming lol #anyway for the record i totally get saving up for frozen shards instead #because. you know. content. extra run more content more fun. #BUT LISTEN ON A META LEVEL--

[glitchedmagic]

i love how blatant the “anti-etho” energy has gotten after phase 4.

he’s still going to win. obviously. but it’s fun that they’re trying.

#decked out #hermitcraft #it’s 8 shards not 1 like tango said aloud (i’m just listening) #but still lol
