Jack = Mordekai

But Mordekai is cute. I even regret not crafting him; I would have had the perfect Oil-themed deck with him. And now, a dragon came with that crazy spell and banned Oil from the meta, and now no one will play Oil decks anymore.

But Mordecai is so cute. I even regret not crafting him; I would have had the perfect Oil-themed deck with him. And now, a dragon came with that crazy spell that bans cards from the board, and now no one will play Oil decks anymore.

You just need to save it up until the moment you play Mordecai.

Back in the summer, I wanted to draw a big picture with a bunch of HeroesWorld regulars. But I only had enough inspiration for four. Maybe someday I'll finish it... In about two years, maybe(((

Heh, lol, two years. How naive. You need to multiply all the remaining "maybe" by "never."

Want to see my drawing? Here it is:

In music school, I first felt genuine envy and admiration for another person's skill. It was the first time I forced myself to go on stage, even though I was terrified. It was the first time I won some kind of competition. This model of success was formed in music school, and later I applied the same approach to other areas. In short, the algorithm is as follows:

1. Find a master/living example that you admire and envy at the same time.
2. Become so passionate about the subject that you start to understand the details and devote a lot of time to it. Set a high bar. Don't aim for the average, but for the very best.
3. Put yourself in a situation where you have a concert/competition/event with a specific date. Where it's both scary and exciting at the same time.
4. Find a coach, other people who can provide quick feedback. Learn both in a group and directly from the master.
5. Start with small competitions and in areas where you can win.
6. Do this for a long time and every day. 2-3 years. Without this step, the other five won't work.

In this scheme, victory is an automatic consequence. Why? While everyone else is preparing for a regular exam to get a 4 or 5, you raise the bar. You are so passionate about the subject that you study it in all aspects, much better than others.

Well... I was just about to start teaching math that way.
