Do you?

The only nerf thread I‘ve ever made was about Harpoons, and I ate those words repeatedly trying to explain why I was wrong.

Never again nerfthreads

Can proudly say I have never created a nerf thread ever. This will be an easy promise to keep.

BUFF THREADS! BUFF THREADS FOR ALL!

What about nerf threads every time I win?

But now that FFG has made us all into unpaid Beta testers, doesn't this become the Beta testers forum?

but how do I decide what to play if there aren't people on the internet convinced something-or-other can't possibly win?

In retrospect basically every 1.0 Nerf Thread became real in 2.0?

And my axe!

Er, axe-wing?

X-Wing, that's what I mean.

You have my...oh never mind.

I never did and I don't intend to start. When I felt the need to uselessly complain on the internet, there was usually someone else who started the nerf thread.

Faithfully swear

Other than the one exception I've already made abundantly clear, we're going to need a LOT of games to assess the viability of ships in a 2.0 environment

Because it's not just how effective something is, but how effective they are in the context of the wider game

That gif was just way too big. What will we talk about without nerf-threads?

So every X-Wing player needs to make a label called "nerf thread jar", put it on a jar (naturally) and then put it next to the swear jar. If you put a dollar every time that you fail either of those, then budgeting for the next X-Wing wave becomes unecessary... also I could have accidentally solved world hunger if whatever money left over is used for that, but I'm getting ahead of myself.

West side story danceoffs about how great our favorite faction is

But then how will we call for a nerf to nerf threads if nerf threads are pre-nerfed?

Threads OP, plz nerf threads.

When you're a Jet you're a Jet all the way!

2.0 nerf and buff threads are going to be a lot more numerous and ferocious.

With the App people are going to assume FFG is going to do balancing on a daily basis, especially against things they feel are broken.

"why won't ffg nerf this rebel ship that went on sale 3 days ago? its an easy fix in the app just increase it by 2 points, FFG HAS REBAL BIAS"

It will be constant and hyper annoying. If you thought it was bad in 1.0 I suggest not going on the forums once 2.0 launches.

Oh boy, that is a legitimate concern

Btw guys, don't believe that ffg will be quick to buff ships either. Very rarely seen any non-moba game company buff anything nowadays

(Then again only really play Xwing, armada, destiny, used to play warmahordes, and a touch of hearthstone)

And I do not think we're going back to ace-style fixes either

I actually think that the calls for nerfs will be more sporadic in 2.0 than in 1st edition because of the adjustment features in 2.0. In 1st edition there were no calls for nerfs except for maybe a ban on TIE-phantoms because there was no known ways to correct the power curve. It wasn't until FFG started to put in Errata that the Nerfhearding threads calling to nerf that and nerf this started to dominate the forum. Now that it is perfectly conceivable to +5 points here and -1 point there you will see a ton of Make _______ Cost ___ Points and FFG, you need to +__ points to __ ,it is undercosted, OP blah blah blah type threads.

As for me I don't care I don't post demands to nerf that because there would already be a hundred of other posts before mine. Hec I am perfectly fine with FFG adding points to top performing cards as long as they continue to subtract points from under-performing cards just to keep the atmosphere balanced. But as for the Nerf Herders, they will still be here and will still be posting threads so...

I have made a lot of threads. Some of which unintentionally caused a slight ruckus and got locked (sorry).

I've never made a nerf thread.

Don't worry. Someone else will. The Gunner Luke thread is already the genesis of the new version of nerf thread crying.
