Dredge modern 20182/12/2024 ![]() ![]() Whether Dredge is safe from the banlist depends on whether things are different this time around. We chose to ban the most explosive graveyard card rather than leave that subgame present. Although games against it are often interesting, the larger game of deciding whether to dedicate enough sideboard slots to defeat it or ignore it completely and hope not to play against it is one that is not very satisfying for most tournament players. But a similar justification had been used for Dread Return at the format's outset:ĭredge is not known for being fun to have around. Never had a card been banned for creating a so-called "battle of sideboards."Īt least, never before in those exact words. Previous offenders had been axed from Modern on the basis of causing diversity issues or violating the Turn Four Rule. When the ban was announced, I and some other Modern devotees saw this rationale as a new criterion in Wizards's arsenal. While those cards were discussed, the real offender always has been the dredge mechanic itself. With the printing of Cathartic Reunion and Prized Amalgam, the deck once again became unhealthy for the format. ![]() Why was Golgari Grave-Troll banned in the first place? Here's Wizards's rationale for the ban:ĭredge, the mechanic and the deck, has a negative impact on Modern by pushing the format too far toward a battle of sideboards. ![]() The Dredge Effect: "A Battle of Sideboards" We'll also weigh the respective merits of some of the top tools available to fight Dredge. This article examines Dredge's known effects on Modern and whether they hold true without Golgari Grave-Troll in the picture. So, is Dredge really back to stay? And how can Modern players beat it? David's article from last week met the deck's rise with an optimism I'm no longer sure I can personally espouse: despite the hate, Dredge put three copies into the Top 32 of GP Atlanta and, more recently, twice that many copies in the Top 32 of the latest Modern Challenge. Creeping Chill has been sanctioned for a month now, and Dredge is steadily regaining its former status as format boogeyman. ![]()

Diablo 2 resurrected controller on pc2/11/2024 ![]() ![]() So my guesses are very much Sega and Like a Dragon/ Yakuza themed, after the headliner of Diablo 2.Īs for a wildcard pick, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy released around the same time as the other games I've mentioned, and it seems like a title that's overdue for a PS Plus launch. Staying in the Sega stable, there was another game the publisher released in September 2021: Sonic Colours Ultimate. While this doesn't correlate date wise to last year's selection, it could be included for August 2023, in keeping with the Yakuza trend. So this is a likely pick for August this year.Īlso released in September 2021 was Lost Judgment – which is a spinoff of the Like a Dragon series. My first guess was very easy, looking back at September 2021's big releases – Activision put out another remake almost exactly a year after Tony Hawk with Diablo 2: Resurrected. Activision's Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 remake of the original PS1 titles launched in September 2020.īased on last year's PS Plus August free games, my predictions for this year's PS Plus Essential August 2023 games are as follows: The PS Plus August 2022 free games selection are a contender for the best month the service has ever seen, including a couple of gems from 2020 – Yakuza: Like a Dragon and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2. So for this July, we looked at big releases from October 2021.įur our PS Plus August 2023 predictions, we're first going to take a look at what was included this time last year: For example, the biggest PS Plus July 2022 game (Crash Bandicoot 4) first launched in October 2020. ![]() Our July PS Plus predictions were based on looking at last year's July 2022 lineup, and the original release dates of the games included. Billbil_kun typically posts leaks on the day before or day of the lineup reveal, so if it breaks in the coming days, we'll update you when it does. ![]() However, as we've seen for a long time now, Twitter leaker has been leaking the lineup consistently. Diablo 4 system requirements – how powerful does your PC setup need to be?Īt the time of writing, no PS Plus August 2023 leaks for the Essential tier games have surfaced. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() His wife, a much older woman, is jealous, but she soon dies. ![]() A country doctor who marries a wife chosen by his mother, he then meets and falls in love with the beautiful, young Emma Roualt when he visits her father's farm on a call. In the almost linear, simple plot, Charles Bovary is a truly “ordinary” man. Flaubert's revolutionary techniques like the use of “style indirect libre” where the environment itself responds to a person's emotions, his use of realism and objectivity were all radically new literary devices. Madame Bovary marks a watershed in the development of the novel form. However, it remained controversial and was banned time and again by various upholders of “morality” till as recently as 1954. ![]() The charges were dismissed and the book was seen by the judges as promoting morality and strengthening of family values instead. This was in spite of the fact that the magazine's editors had already done their own censoring of “offending passages.” Flaubert himself was shocked and the resulting very public trial in 1857 added to the book's notoriety. However, its bold theme, path breaking ideas of women's rights and the condemnation of middleclass morality led to its being legally attacked by the Church and the government. Of course there is also the story of a dull marriage punctuated by passionate, adulterous love affairs.įirst published in serial form in a Parisian magazine and deemed to be the “perfect” novel, Flaubert's debut was received by both readers and critics with acclaim and admiration. The strands woven together in Gustave Flaubert's famous, path breaking 1856 novel Madame Bovary include a provincial town in Normandy, France, a shy young doctor with an indifferent career and a lovely young woman who lives in a fantasy world based on the innumerable romantic novels she reads. ![]()

G flat minor relative major2/9/2024 ![]() ![]() I think the story’s true, Brahms strikes me as someone who didn’t really care about originality for its own sake, like too many of today’s composers.Īmong symphonies, the most famous in B minor might be Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. So when he heard Dvořák’s, the older composer reportedly said if he had known he would have written one like that. ![]() Legend has it that Brahms, who did write two piano concerti and violin concerto, had thought about writing a cello concerto but never did. Teresa Carreño’s String Quartet in B minor is a good example of this. There’s something very melancholy about B minor, much more so than, say, the often combative C minor. Some commentators read into these B minor compositions a quiet resignation and acceptance of fate. It’s special for being in B minor but it’s not special for being unfinished, because Schubert actually left half a dozen symphonies short of complete in different ways, most of them in D major, the relative major to B minor. Next, you might think of Schubert’s “Unfinished” Symphony, the one in B minor. Even Bruckner’s longest mass runs a couple of minutes shy of one hour. The first piece to come to mind for B minor might be Bach’s Mass in B minor, which at two hours is a little hard to justify for liturgical use. Or it could be because the composer is one of those dead white men acknowledged as great composers, but, aside from his greatest hits, most of his music is obscure. Could be because the composer is black, or a woman. I’m looking for music that is undeservedly obscure for some reason or another. Next up on my survey of music along the circle of fifths, B minor. ![]()
