Can't you just reset the vehicle to your farm? Or did they remove that in this edition?

I think you can but that takes money.

So I had the match basically won with a bunch of heavy hitting effects on the board.
- Ral, Izzet Viceroy's emblem allowing me to do 4 damage to any target and draw 2 cards whenever I cast an instant or sorcery
- Jaya Ballard's emblem allowing me to cast instants/sorceries from the graveyard
- Thousand Year Storm allowing me to copy each instant/sorcery for each time I cast a previous instant/sorcery
- ...and a whole bunch of instants/sorceries and the mana to cast them.

I wanted to use the instant "Shock" last (deal 2 damage) to make maximum use of Thousand Year Storm's effect but since I had removed all my opponent's non-land permanents from the board, I used some draw spells to build up TYS and trigger Ral's emblem, and after my library was fully drawn I finally cast shock to take my opponent down to -2 life. That should have given me victory, except...

I was of the understanding that I'd only lose on drawing out my library at the beginning of my next draw step... but I misunderstood the ruling, apparently I lose upon being forced to draw from an empty library at any time (I had to draw due to Ral's emblem).

... so because I tried to draw from an empty library at the same moment my opponent went to -2, the game decided to end the match in a draw.

Tested out the newly released character, Asha. Realized a little too late that I have completely forgotten the game's basic controls, let alone wild-guessing the controls of a new character. Realization came as I was falling off the stage to my doom.

deactivating sprint drops you to a walking pace. Even after hitting a jump pad, over lava.  Being on fire makes it difficult to accurately double-jump for a ledge you can reach. Flash step, and Mines are both helpful things to use at a moment's notice, for different situations. connection terminated

I was attempting the Pilgrimage of the Seven Graces as a squishy lvl 1 wizard type. I got close to the shrine just within the Ghostgate but I was swarmed by cliffracers and a corprus beast. I can't fight them all at once with my current gear and stats, so I use an ALMSIVI intervention scroll to teleport me to the tribunal shrine inside Ghostgate. I leave the building with low health and no magicka, and get attacked by a cliffracer. With careful maneuvering and drawing of aggro, I reach the shrine...

...Only to realize I forgot to take a bloody soulgem with me.

Then I was murdered by a cliffracer.

Finally got my first SS rank today (92.7% accuracy). Song was Feel Invincible by Skillet on expert difficulty.
Why in the die thread? Today was patchday and high score uploads for custom songs don't work  :'(

Very narrowly missed the grab on the moving platform.

Everybody but me was knocked offstage by an item explosion.  I jumped off stage myself and positioned ivysaur directly above the other fighters.  Down aerial.  2 fighters meteored and die.

I feel awesome.  Time to get back onstage.   Up Special.
I'm facing the wrong way...
and it's too late to switch to char and try a recovery....

Ah yes, the insatiable lust of corn and rice, clearly two of the most erotic foods.

Found a tiny little cave... with a Mesmer and about 10 Crashfish. The stasis rifle does't seem to effect the Crashfish. The worst part is, this cave is one of the "safest" regions of the game, literally less than half a kilometer from my start point.

Yeah, crashfish are... Well, they are what they are. The "Safe Shallows" are really only safe on the shallow end. God I hate those things...

Try and make your way out towards the Grassy Plateaus (red seagrass). Fewer crashfish, and the sharks are just the derpiest little bastards that you can't even really get mad at them when they try to eat you. You do have to be careful when zooming around in the seamoth though, as sometimes you'll fly through one of the wreck structures before it loads in, and it'll trap the seamoth inside the physical mesh... Which is a pain to remedy, I gotta say.
