    I just got a new artist, and I think he is a butt guy, if you know what I'm saying ;)

    As in, he likes toilet humor.

    I laughed, because this is exactly how I think of it. Exactly.

    Perfect comic Pinder; When they said they wanted to make combat more intuitive and then talked about blocking order, this is the kind of stuff that went through my head.

    That blocking order thing is hillarious.

    Re: Webcomic about New Rules

    Although I agree the webcomic was funny, I think that was not the scenario that was supposed to be described by the metaphor (if there indeed was any and this is not simply a way to make things work with the new no damage stacking rule) : the webcomic is actually completely misleading as for this "scenario" to be the one represented by the rules it would mean that blocking creatures assign damage sequentially - which is absolutely not the case in the new rule.

    A scenario that is indeed accurately represented by the new rules is :

    The blocker's pov : "everyone, chaaaarge !!!"

    The attacker's pov : "try to kill that one first, he's the most important !"

    which doesn't sound that stupid at all.

    Now, if the former scenario was the one most people got when playing with the new rules, then maybe that would be a problem as this surely is a weird feeling thing. But that seems quite unlikely seeing how the rules explicitly contradict it.
