HermitCraft S9#7: Random TCG Farming

[@machanji9586]

Love that etho now knows what getting etho'd feels like

[@derrickstorm6976]

He will only double down lol

[@mystical_charlatan]

I'd argue that Doc's anvil kill wasn't completely legit since Etho was AFK. Nevertheless, it's still going to be fun

[@iveharzing]

@@mystical_charlatan Anvil kills are hard. Also Etho did get Doc while he was afk. Also Etho was only afk for like 5 minutes.

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

@Jack Wrath even if it is you're annoying he's not

[@mystical_charlatan]

@@iveharzing I know they are hard. But if you look for some compilations you will see Etho landing a few anvils on players on the Mindcrack server, and of course the kill on GenerikB. In all of them, the targets are not AFK and are either doing something or interacting with other players. Sure, Etho did get Doc while he was AFK, but Doc did it first, and that is why it was fair game.

[@BlahCraft1]

I feel so sad for poor Etho. Just as he's shaken off a shopping addiction, he gets addicted to Beef's Hermitcraft TCG. And we all know, in 2-3 months, once he's shaken off his TGC addiction, wham! Tango will release Decked Out 2, and we're back to square one! Anyway, can't wait to see you enjoy those Hermitcraft megaprojects.

[@baseballjustin5]

Can't wait for Decked Out 2: Return of the King (Since he crushed it in Decked Out 1 lol)

[@ChauNyan]

Yeah, Etho is really good at TGC games and I wouldn't discount the play at the end as pure luck. Etho has done more insane stuff on Hearthstone with relatively weaker cards before.

[@John-lh1qx]

Randomly in Joe's live streams he becomes asked to join him by different hermits. He gets there and he realizes, he's on the board and active with Haiku fully engaged....

[@etoinedevries7583]

Haikus are so great And the rhythm is easy Just five-seven-five

[@metalnut92]

Having watched Beef grinding away at his maps for almost a year now, it feels so good to see the Hermits genuinely excited to open booster packs and propose trades.

[@enzotruchon9225]

I came back searching for this comment to say you were very very right

[@pleasantvegetable]

To be fair, those two things *are* simultaneously true in most tcgs. Yes, if your deck is awful your skill will likely struggle to make up for it against someone with a competitive deck, but when your deck is on the same level as your opponent then there's a loooot of skill involved (and also still some luck because that's how tcgs work)

[@BoxBlair]

I have to say that when Etho and Doc interact, it is my favourite interaction of all the hermits

For anyone who wants to see the full unedited match it is on ZombieCleo's stream! What a nostalgic episode. The anvil wars brought me back to the mindcrack days! And trading cards in the shop brought me straight back to third grade! Amazed at what Beef has accomplished here, ngl I wasn't sure he'd get there, but it's even better than I hoped! Also, Joe's haikus every time his move was used... *chef's kiss* More of these please!! I know you like to keep the episodes fresh, but maybe you could do what you did for decked out and have separate videos? I know lots of us would love to see more!

ETHO that's crazy, I went 6 years without going to the dentist and ultimately had to go back last year. I was terrified from bad past experiences too but after I went I was impressed with how much technology has improved since then and how little pain I felt during the Op. I had gotten 2 root canals and 3 porcelain caps done. I'm sure you might be a bit sore after but I totally would love to hear how your experience went after the fact in the next video!

[@bbgun061]

Ouch. Regular cleanings can prevent that more painful work! Glad you faced your fears.

[@fidelianerina]

I applaud you for being able to go back. My last experience was so bad. Between the pain and the dentist himself just being very rude and dismissive has just made it to where I never wanna go back. It was my second time ever at the dentists office and honestly....both times were not pleasant. Sadly the only place in my local area I can go to with my insurance. Maybe one day I can move and find a better dentist but I'll happily just deal with how my teeth are then go back to that dentists office.

I think Joe's live haiku composing is the highlight of the season so far, in terms of hermits doing what hermits do. Seeing the planned collabs, bases, and clever farms is always fascinating, but the times when y'all just hang out and do fun stuff spontaneously is what captures the feel of Hermitcraft best for me.

A bad dentist can leave a hell of an impression. Mine lost me like three teeth, through braces I didn't want as a kid and an awful botched cavity removal. Haven't been back in 10 years.

[@Kirmeins]

@@Jacksaur_ Might be a good idea to find a new dentist at this point. Ask around who has heard of a good one near you. Preferably one who has some experience working with traumatised patients - because it sounds like that §&$% traumatised you quite thouroghly. Younger dentists with ~5 years job experience are worth looking into. They are far less likely to choose some outdated approach and you'd know if they were bad by a lack of patients in the waiting room when you go for your first visit. Also, the first visit rarely ever entails any actual dentist work, so you can get a good first impression and will know what even needs to be done. You can still choose another dentist afterwards and get second opinions after what you've been through as a kid. Don't wait until you are in serious pain. I can tell you from experience that it hurts like sh*t to get a shot of anaesthetics right into a severely infected area. It's so much better to go when it doesn't hurt yet.

Hey Etho. I was looking at your super speedy roadway and I think there is something faster. If you are in crawl/swim mode it triggers swift sneak but you can still use the boost from soul speed if you are swimming over soul soil so it just adds an extra boost to the already insane speed.
