@Vampyrgaming @The_Egman I learned my lesson with tide pods: clear colorful things are delicious

@MonkeyVanguard A dedicated platform for this type of content would go a long way as well, with reviews, transparent pricing, and staff to vet masterclass providers. Fwiw I think this is what metafy is trying to do but i think the model still has growing to do (I'm not metafy sponsored lol)

@Melonomg Poker players will speak in situations where speaking doesn't matter and be completely silent in other situations where it does. Like I said, taking life is one of the most information leaky interactions in the game. Many other moments it doesn't matter.

@Henryarinaga1 Yes, and it was not a scam, but the player is a vetted pro and has topped *with* the deck in question

@Melonomg Play however you want! Iβm gonna try out this not speaking thing when taking a life AND talk during the rest of the game too because imo it's possible to do both

@Melonomg So youre saying if I was to go from saying "no trigger" to saying nothing, the game is not even worth playing and I should not speak to my opponent.... seems like a big jump dude but alright

@Melonomg Bluffing is a big (and imo, pretty fun) part of the game! I'm not saying to play emotionlessly at all times, but I find these conversations interesting and fwiw I do think there's an "optimal" way to take life which can be one of the biggest info leaks in the game.

@Cross_Aii I've heard a lot of people say this, and a lot of people whose opinions I respect (along with many whose opinions I don't tbf). I get where theyre coming from but theyre def missing perspective on how hard it is to find and create pro-level content

@Melonomg I'm talking about this mostly in the same sense that poker players do - they say every word that comes out of your mouth is potential info. Cross quoted the tweet saying he pauses and doesnt say anything when he takes a life *UNLESS* it's a trigger, which I rly like

@rjtriedtotweet But if you just take the life immediately without even thinking about it, it specifically signals that the card doesnt have a trigger is what I'm saying
