That moment, when you played a few minutes, giving the AI every possible skull match, healing you first troop via mercy/valk and then decide its time to use its spell…

“Payback time” 😈 😈

_Casts Hydra - Teamwipe_

Sooo satisfying…

Edit: PSA: Skulls over 5 in a match do not deal extra damage. A board with 64 skulls on it only deals 43 damage when you have 41 attack

Not exactly while _playing_ GoW, but Patrick Weekes\* has been tweeting about playing GoW (and watching YouTube videos, which means… @Tacet?) & that’s kinda fun.

That is really cool! Amazing that people like that actually watch my videos. The slow road to #YouTubeFamous… 🕶

I really appreciate all of the support. 🙂

Do what? Board o’skulls? Bone dragon. Hit a Gorgotha for 83 damage? Khorvash’s stun plus a Sheggra cast.

Getting a red minor from a pvp match.

I think getting excited over a minor red is PERFECTLY rational.

It’s the level of happiness that is irrational, not the fact that it makes you happy at all. 🙂

And minor reds definitely cause a level of happiness that would be irrational for any other Minor… 😋

Probably my favorite moment in the whole game is hearing the Hag cast her spell.

I got Sylvanimora fully traited last week and it was so worth the effort! Never used a team with entangle until now. Been leaving every skull match open and it’s so satisfying to see the struggle animation as the enemy wastes a turn 😁

Just had a team with Maw up top cast bone dragon while Maw was entangled. Did like 3 damage 😂

Edit:happened again. Think it was 5 damage
