Additionally, you'll notice that many of the flex slots are also capable of dealing damage to the face, as does Archon and Wrenn and Six, which means burning your opponent out is not an uncommon way to close the game. You need to be able to answer a Ragavan in the turns prior to Dwarven Mine being active, ideally at instant speed, which is why Bolt is preferable to Prismatic Ending. Lightning Bolt: We play four of these because it's currently the best one-mana removal spell. Īs the metagame currently stands, I wouldn't go below these numbers on any of the cards above. If you're interested in additional Creativity resources (and you'll see that I stole ideas from all of them), you can read this article by Kyle Boggemes, this one by Andrea Mengucci, and this article by Yriel. 5C is the version I've had by far the most success with, and it took me some time before I figured out not just a list I liked, but also found the play patterns that I was happiest with. This article is going to focus on 5C Creativity and the way that I approach building and playing the deck. This is why I think Creativity is such an exciting archetype it's incredibly flexible, and two players with different proclivities in their play patterns can build and play the deck in dramatically different ways to equally successful results. While this is broadly true, each archetype can be tuned to nudge it in a certain direction, to align it with how the player plays the deck. ![]() Temur is more of a tempo deck, and 5C is the most controlling. Jund is the most proactive and combo-oriented of the variants, with hand disruption to clear the way for its multiple Persists and Creativities. Some play four Persist, others play zero. Some play three Teferi, Time Raveler, others play zero. Some lists play three Prismari Command, others play zero. ![]() ![]() There are Jund, Temur, 4C, and 5C variants which have all seen success, and within each of these archetypes, there is significant diversity in card choices. Creativity decks in Modern often win the game in the same way: by casting Indomitable Creativity on some tokens to cheat in Archons of Cruelty.īut the road to this destination varies greatly among Creativity players, and this is evident in deckbuilding.

![]() Yes, some of the newer recordings on Garage Inc. However, all was not lost in the Black Album, Load / Reload eras for in 1998, Metallica would once again go back to their roots to deliver the somewhat produced Garage Inc. … It was nice that they were all talking about us.Throughout the 90s, Metallica exploded with Bob Rock at the production helm and while some may still lament this shift from their Thrash origins, it did allow for a radio-friendly, welcoming sound, that would make the band a household name. It was Slash who told them first to do it as a cover because Guns N' Roses had just done ‘I Hate People,’ but Axl dropped that because he couldn't sing it properly. … Metallica though, taking us on board, under their wing so to speak, telling us that they couldn't put the song down and they fuckin’ loved it, were just a great bunch of blokes. I thought, ‘Well, I don't want to outstay my welcome,’ but I was tempted. Go around on their jet and be a guest each night around the world on their tour. “It was them that said, ‘What the fuck are you doing?’ I said, ‘I’ve quit now, haven't I? I don't do stage work any more.’ ‘Getcha band back on the road man!’” He admitted to being a “bit of a bread head,” interested in making money, and noted, “I didn't really know Metallica … but going up there and being involved with it, they've got chefs and they've got money and great big set up. The band had split and he’d gone back to college when the cover of “So What?” was released, and then Animal received an invitation to guest with Metallica at London’s Wembley Stadium in 1992. If it weren’t for Metallica, frontman Animal might still be working for his father’s roofing business. ![]() I know we have noticed a younger generation at our shows and also attending more classic metal shows in the last two years.” So, they are going out and discovering why Metallica likes Blitzkrieg, Diamond Head, etc., and instead of listening to the likes of Avenged Sevenfold, a lot of the younger audience is discovering Priest, Accept, Scorpions, etc. They quite strongly said, ‘No, it’s not our song.’ They promoted it quite well.” Guitarist Ken Johnson took a slightly different angle in 2017, saying, “Maybe to some young bands, some of what is classed as metal these days isn't quite cutting it for them to listen to. Not that Metallica has ever claimed that the song is theirs, they haven’t. That is not really where you want it to be. It was really nice for them to say that we influenced them in their early days and actually still do influence them apparently, because every time a new Blitzkrieg album comes out, Lars is on the phone saying, ‘Can I get a copy of this, please?’" But, "on the other side of the sword," he said, "It’s kind of been difficult in that there is an awful lot of Metallica fans out there that actually think that ‘Blitzkrieg’ is a Metallica song. “On one edge of the sword, obviously it was an honor for them to do that. “It’s a double-edged sword,” frontman Brian Ross said in 2016. I was supposed to talk to some bloke about getting paid, but I just took it for granted that he was gonna come across with the money after the gig. They gave me all this merchandising stuff, like scarves and hats and T-shirts and sorta said, ‘Okay, man. They went on for about three hours, and then I came on to do ‘Whiskey in the Jar’ with them. I said yeah, so I flew over with them on their private plane. They were staying at this very plush hotel in Marble Arch, and they asked me to play ‘Whiskey in the Jar’ with them in Dublin. "They phoned me up about eight or nine years ago when they were in London, where I was living at this point. And the bastards didn’t pay me,” he laughed in 2015. “They phoned me up and asked me to do a gig with them. ![]() Then everyone started copying them, and now there's 100,000 bands that sound like Metallica.”Įven though Thin Lizzy didn’t write the song – it’s a traditional folk anthem in Ireland – Metallica based their version on Lizzy’s, and original guitarist Eric Bell won’t forget his run-in with them afterward. … But by the time Master of Puppets came out, I think they'd left that style and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal influence probably behind, and they pushed into some new territory that no one had been before. Yeah, they were influenced by bands like Diamond Head and Motorhead and Maiden. To have met Lars when he was just a Diamond Head fan - and he never mentioned playing the drums or forming a band or anything - and watch him rise to the top and headline the biggest festivals in world is something I've never seen happen before or since to anyone I actually knew and could count on as a friend. I've been to see them probably at least 20 times. “I'm full of admiration for what Metallica have done," he said in 2016. Diamond Head guitarist Brian Tatler is comfortable with the fact that, the first time he met Ulrich, the drummer was a fan – and the tables have turned since then. Of course, Coolblue's service also deserves praise, because the delivery time was perfectly respected. ![]() The CE-T can now display even more than m'Plus could.

Is he going to survive all these surgeries?” “Every time he came in for care, it snowballed into a new wound,” she explained. Not only did problems arise with Wilson’s stomach incision-Yakimovitch says lesions were eventually discovered on all of his legs and his tail, which has since been amputated. When he was initially brought in to the animal centre, “staff noticed a horrible smell and saw an open, circular wound on Wilson’s chest,” according to the release.įrom there, the feline was rushed into emergency surgery where it was discovered that the wound went into his abdomen, and was full of dead and dying tissue that had to be removed. The family initially wanted to keep the cat, but when he wouldn’t eat, they decided to bring him to the East Kootenay BC SPCA. “So it wasn’t just, ‘Oh there’s a cat on the side of the road.’ It was literally in the middle of nowhere,” Yakimovitch said. 13, by a family who’d driven 14 kilometres down a logging road and trekked into the forest before spotting him. “It’s one for the books for sure,” said Tia Yakimovitch, the centre’s animal care supervisor, during a phone call with CTV News. Wilson, as the cat is named in a BC SPCA release issued Thursday, has had multiple surgeries in the weeks since that family brought him into the East Kootenay branch-including a tail amputation. family drove down a logging road in Cranbrook to collect wood last month, they weren’t expecting to rescue a 12-year-old cat in medical distress. They’re always the butt of their own jokes, which makes them good company for a late night but also makes these songs hit a little harder the next morning.When a B.C. “And the other half ain’t well thought out.” And Steff plays his accordion solo on closer “Time to Go Home” with what sounds like an arched eyebrow and a shake of the head, as though he’s asked for Nichols’ keys too many times. ![]() “Half of what runs through my head is bullshit I sell to myself,” Nichols explains on the title track. Nichols and the band are alive to the little ironies and indignities that anyone faces while searching for the bottom of a bottle. Lucero have never been known for cracking jokes, but what really distinguishes Should’ve Learned by Now from their previous barroom musings is the humor in these songs. There’s no rising action, no traditional crescendo instead, you just find yourself in the midst of some emotional turmoil, the way a bad memory can come out of nowhere to sour your day. ![]() On “Nothing’s Alright,” a breakup song that plays up the ambiguity of the title phrase, Lucero build tension and drama in small lurches from the rhythm section and sideways glances from Brian Venable’s guitar. Steff adds flourishes of E Street piano and Hi Rhythm organ, injecting these songs with a wryness that bounces off Nichols’ lyrics. Berry, still one of the most inventive drummers around, allows the band to be slippery, shifting tempo on a dime but never making a big deal of it (they’re a bar band, after all). It’s simply sweet rather than bittersweet, as Nichols sings about catching the eye of a young woman in the crowd and the band conveys the thrill of youthful self-expression.ĭuring their quarter-century together, Lucero have kept essentially the same lineup, beginning as a vocals-guitar-bass-drums quartet before adding multi-instrumentalist Rick Steff. “At the Show,” on the other hand, captures the relatively innocent excitement of playing your first gigs at a venue you’re barely old enough to patronize. Lucero will even raise a glass to bad weather: The frantic “Macon If We Make It” is about waiting out a hurricane in some Florida watering hole while hoping you can get far enough inland before the worst of it hits. This is an album about drinking and the many reasons you do it: celebrating and commiserating, numbing yourself or finding perspective, getting your heart broken or breaking someone else’s. Instead, they’re continuing to sharpen old ideas and update familiar themes. Road dogs can learn new tricks, as the Moogs and moodiness of 2018’s Among the Ghosts and 2021’s When You Found Me proved.ĭespite the suggestion of self-reckoning in its title, Should’ve Learned by Now is nothing so dramatic as a comeback or a return to form. Like the Hold Steady and the Drive-By Truckers-two other unkillable bands associated with the bar-rock trend of the 2000s-Lucero are still making solid albums that expand their catalogs in unexpected ways. While Nichols still insists on referring to the women in his songs as “little girl,” there’s something impressive, even endearing about their longevity. They’ve been playing barstool blues and ballads for 25 years now, cutting their teeth in the very joints they sing about and surviving even when most bars have replaced rock bands with jukeboxes or, worse, DJs. ![]() After a handful of albums that prioritized southern gothic atmosphere over southern rock riffs, Lucero are back where they started. ![]() They force Gilderoy Lockhart, a fraud who wipes clean other wizards' memories and claims their achievements, to go with them. With the help of Ron and Moaning Myrtle (Shirley Henderson), Harry discovers the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets. Most horribly, a message written on a wall declares that Ginny Weasley has been taken into the Chamber, where "her skeleton will lie forever". The attacks increase throughout the year, petrifying more students, including Hermione. She is released from the hospital wing in early February, her normal appearance restored. Unfortunately, the hair that Hermione took from Millicent Bullstrode's uniform was from a cat, and as the polyjuice potion is only intended for human transformations she assumes a feline appearance it takes a little more than a month to restore her normal human form. Malfoy, they learn, does not know who the Heir of Slytherin is, but he inadvertently provides Harry and Ron with an important clue about the Chamber of Secrets. Using Polyjuice Potion brewed by Hermione, they disguise themselves as Slytherin students, Crabbe (Jamie Waylett) and Goyle (Josh Herman), hoping to learn from Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) the identity of the Heir. Harry, Ron, and Hermione attempt to discover the Heir of Slytherin's true identity. Many suspect Harry is the Heir of Slytherin, especially after he inadvertently speaks Parseltongue (the language of snakes), a rare ability Harry gained after Voldemort's murderous attack upon him when he was an infant. According to legend, the Chamber was built by Salazar Slytherin and can only be opened by his heir, in order to purge Hogwarts of students who are not pure-blood wizards. Events take a turn for the worse when the Chamber of Secrets is opened and a monster stalks the castle, with the power literally to petrify several students. Harry soon finds he is the unwanted centre of attention of three people: the vain new Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor, Gilderoy Lockhart (Kenneth Branagh), admirer Colin Creevey (Hugh Mitchell), and Ron's sister, Ginny Weasley (Bonnie Wright), who fancies Harry. The semi-sentient car ejects them and their belongings and disappears into the Forbidden Forest. In desperation, they fly to Hogwarts in the car, crashing into the Whomping Willow and damaging Ron's wand. To their shock, Harry and Ron are unable to enter the barrier between platforms 9 and 10. ![]() ![]() After a pleasant summer together in the Weasley house, everyone heads to Platform 9¾ to take the Hogwarts Express back to school. A few days later, Fred, George (James and Oliver Phelps) and Ron Weasley come to his rescue in their father's enchanted Ford Anglia. On learning that Harry cannot perform magic outside school, the Dursleys, previously fearful of his wizarding, lock Harrys books and wand away and Vernon Dursley fits bars onto his bedroom window, making Harry a prisoner. Harry is blamed by the Ministry of Magic for Dobby's charm, and is told that if he does magic outside school again, he will be expelled. Seeing that he will have to use force, Dobby decides to destroy, by the use of a charm, a large cake that Aunt Petunia (Fiona Shaw) has baked for an important dinner party attended by Vernon Dursley's (Richard Griffiths) boss and his wife. It turns out that Dobby has been collecting Harry's letters to make it seem as though his friends had forgotten him, hoping Harry might then not want to return to Hogwarts. ![]() Harry ignores Dobby's warning and is determined to return. On his twelfth birthday (July 31) Harry is visited by Dobby, a house-elf, who warns Harry that he will be in mortal danger if he returns to Hogwarts. Hagrid is incredibly kind and loyal both to Harry and to Dumbledore.While home with the Dursleys for the summer, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) is not getting any mail from his friends, Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson). In the end, when it is discovered that Riddle actually framed Hagrid for this crime, he is exonerated and brought back to the school. Hagrid then tells Harry and Ron to “follow the spiders,” which allows them to discover that Hagrid was actually innocent and that Aragog was not the monster who attacked and killed a student. They are interrupted, however, when Cornelius Fudge arrives to take Hagrid to Azkaban prison because the Chamber has been opened again. Harry, Ron, and Hermione’s loyalty to Hagrid prevents them from confronting him after this discovery, but when Hermione herself is attacked, Harry and Ron try to talk to Hagrid about these events. It is revealed later in the book that Hagrid was expelled from Hogwarts fifty years earlier for opening the Chamber of Secrets, because Riddle found him taking care of a giant monster (which turns out to be the spider Aragog, and not the basilisk). Hagrid has a weakness for taking care of large and sometimes dangerous creatures. The groundskeeper at Hogwarts, who also serves as a mentor and friend to Harry.

![]() įlower mantises are aggressive mimics, resembling flowers convincingly enough to attract prey that come to collect pollen and nectar. There is however some controversy about whether this is a true case of wolf in sheep's clothing mimicry. The zone-tailed hawk, which resembles the turkey vulture, flies among flocks of turkey vultures, then suddenly breaks from the formation and ambushes one of them as its prey. Similarly, some reptiles such as Elaphe rat snakes employ caudal luring (tail luring) to entice small vertebrates into striking range. Its tongue bears a conspicuous pink extension that resembles a worm and can be wriggled around fish that try to eat the "worm" are themselves eaten by the turtle. The alligator snapping turtle is a well-camouflaged ambush predator. This strategy is called aggressive mimicry, using the false promise of nourishment to lure prey. Many ambush predators actively attract their prey towards them before ambushing them. The orchid mantis, Hymenopus coronatus, mimics a rainforest orchid of southeast Asia to lure its prey, pollinator insects. Different ambush predators use a variety of means to capture their prey, from the long sticky tongues of chameleons to the expanding mouths of frogfishes.Īmbush predation is widely distributed in the animal kingdom, spanning some members of numerous groups such as the starfish, cephalopods, crustaceans, spiders, insects such as mantises, and vertebrates such as many snakes and fishes. Nocturnal ambush predators such as cats and snakes have vertical slit pupils helping them to judge the distance to prey in dim light. The predator then uses a combination of senses to detect and assess the prey, and to time the strike. The ambush is often opportunistic, and may be set by hiding in a burrow, by camouflage, by aggressive mimicry, or by the use of a trap (e.g. Unlike pursuit predators, who chase to capture prey using sheer speed or endurance, ambush predators avoid fatigue by staying in concealment, waiting patiently for the prey to get near, before launching a sudden overwhelming attack that quickly incapacitates and captures the prey.
