So, enjoy Ed's mess up in exporting files as this show will be in stereo with voices in the left and right channel... UGH!

We'l do better next time guys!

Ooh that'll be tricky. I listen at work with one headphone in (**** coworkers needing to talk to me).

Deepest regrets man! I have done 42 episodes prior to this and it has never happened. I have no idea what I did wrong this time. UGH! Frustrating!

I kind of like it with you in the left ear and everyone else on the right. It feels like I'm sitting at a table with you all.

Well Eviled easy fix for us would be to reverse our headphones, well those of us that use them ;)

Thanks for the nod on the Dengar card, Ed. It's nice to be able to contribute an idea so long ago that finally made its way into testing, and then to have it come out on an actual game card. And Dengar crew is garnering much more chatter than Dash crew ever did, which is nice.

And Chad, sorry about leaving Worlds so abruptly, but I had been away from my son for 3 days,and I wanted to get home and be there when he woke up Saturday morning, which I was. I'm glad you pulled out the win, though!

Great show guys. :)

Anytime Doug! Happy to give credit where credit is due!

I noticed this while listening on the subway this morning and wasn't sure if this was a new thing (at first I thought my headphones were busted, since I listened to the first part connected to my car stereo and didn't notice it). I was hoping that this was not going to be the plan for future episodes. I would find it sort of nice, but with the subway and road noise it makes it harder to hear, even at max volume since I am only getting it in one ear.

I enjoyed the show!

I just want to say I flew against Mu0n on vassal the other night..

Jumpmaster Basic

Intimidation

R5-p8

Int agent

APL

Feedback

x5 BlackSunSoldiers

and it wrecked me... i'll say be wary of that in the future!!!!

and for those thinking of P1 title of the fifth BSS, dont. trust in the list.

Great episode, with some excellent analysis of the YV666. On the JM5k, I'm surprised the U-Boat didn't get a mention, the base ship looks like this:

36 Scout w/ Deadeye, Recon, R4-agro, PlasmaT, EM, Guidance.

It's Crazy good for 36 points, and can be modified to do a bunch of cool stuff:

36 Scout w/ Deadeye, 4-LOM, R4-agro, IonT, EM, Guidance.

The Ionizer. Pairs well with 2x TLT-R4-Thugs to Ionize and kite your opponent. Maybe add Punishing One to assist in post-ion turret murder?

35 Scout w/ Deadeye, Boba, R4-agro, ProtonT, EM, Guidance.

Cheap and easy Boba Procs. Pairs well with it's Plasma Torp counterpart.

I'd be very tempted to try and get Mux in there aka: Sable Griffon style. ICT would certainly make anything stuck near that JM5k sad-face.

Actually its a really bad practical joke that went horribly wrong.

LOL!

No, just me for some reason forgetting to export out the file in mono.

Curse saving all my thoughts for the YV-666!

Ah well, just have to try to remember stuff fo... what was I saying?

Yeah, Intimidation and Feedback Array makes this the most horrific blocker ever.

that in conjunction with White Sloop, int agent AND barrel roll, yes.

Edited by Panic 217

Yeah, the White S-Loop plus BR is sweet.... PTL to Boost is even funnier!

on an ace, yes, but that would lose APL which the list loves to have on it.

I want to say that Paul's discussion of his losses was great. Losses are where we really should be learning, and hearing very good players talk about why they lost is very illuminating. I feel like this is the most interesting and useful sort of battle report in podcast format (where fine details get lost). Pick a couple of close games or losses and talk about what went wrong, what was challenging, how you overcame or failed to overcome some setback, etc.

And Marcus really is an amazing player. To hear the three time World Champ taken to the mat like that... I enjoined that one myself!

Great podcast guys! Was really waiting on the YV666 talk as I'm a big fan of Bossk, I'll have to wait til next time.

Nobody is more upset over that then I am, I can assure you!

But fear not, we will cover it again next week!

Thanks for listening!

Even if to remind the people that it can be done!

Impossible to listen to in a noisy environment (i.e. where I work). Do you have any plans to fix the sound and re-upload it? I would really like to hear it, but I just can't listen to it like this.

Yes, I will re-export the file and switch it out today. Again, sorry about the mix up.

I wonder if you guys can bump your volume up a little bit. I'd rather not have to max my speaker volume to hear you, and if I have the podcast running in the background it takes a lot of work to make it louder than other sounds (say, running the podcast while playing MWO or Marvel Heroes or something).
