381: The 2024 Final Ultimate Sexy Delightful Respectful Orange Faction Tier List Dec 11, 2024

Show notes

This month is getting busier and busier. We were in Philadelphia for PAX Unplugged and that seemed like a perfect opportunity to have some guests on and hold the annual Faction Tier List episode. Rwise and Teddysjamforyou both joined us in Matt's dirty hotel room, so get prepared for THAT kind of energy. We also didn't strictly do a Tier List this year, but instead decided to hold a Faction Draft and subsequent Tournament to determine not only the best Faction but the best Faction Drafter!

379: Super Sardakk N'orr Guide (THE FINAL SUPER GUIDE) Nov 26, 2024

Show notes

With this episode Matt and Hunter have completed a two year cycle of covering every single faction in TI to the deepest of our ability. It's been a long journey and we didn't get everything perfect (give us one more go around!) but we did pack a lot of very good detail into all of these guides. They should stand as a great resource until the oncoming codex four wipes out their relevancy! For this final guide we dive into the bug boys of Sardakk N'orr, a faction that is not great but is very fun and has very interesting abilities. Bug boys love mom!
