Video Game Review: NBA 2K Playgrounds 2

While we’re no fans of the NBA 2k19 method, there you’re ultimately talking about accelerating your player’s development, making him a star right now rather than grinding it out over seasons of taking the court. This is much worse. The game is withholding actual players, and everything feels like it’s there to encourage you just to purchase the unlock so you can use the players you actually want to.

The Wire Troll: Anton Stralman Set Up For More Ice Time

Injuries have played a role, but Duclair has struggled to rediscover the form he showed in his sophomore season when he potted 20 goals and 44 points for the Coyotes in 2015-16. With two goals on Thursday, he doubled his season output and now has six points through nine games with an even +/- and a whopping 23.5 shooting percentage. Duclair is seeing more ice time than ever before, and he’s getting second unit power play time, scoring half his goals with the man advantage so far. About a week and a half ago, he scored an unbelievable goal against the Flyers, showing some mad skills. It’s time to pick the kid up.

While mainly there for aesthetic intrigue and narrative, the factions do provide starting bonuses that affect how you may try to claim the throne. Said conditions are through prestige, rot, might and collecting spirit stones.

Video Game Review: Mark of the Ninja: Remastered

Mark of the Ninja is designed around stealth. Your default movement speed is very deliberate, and your sword can only be used during assassinations triggered when your target is unaware or dazed. This is not a hack n’ slash where you face a half-dozen enemies at once or battle hand to hand. Your foes carry guns, your health is limited, and caution is of utmost importance.

The Wire Troll: Malik Monk Getting Tons of Touches

Jerebko played the hero, tipping in the game-winning bucket with 0.3 seconds to play. He’s never quite delivered on the promise of his first two seasons, but he’s periodically been a decent plug and play option as appears the case now with Iggy out. Just beware that Jerebko’s PT is likely to fluctuate greatly, so he’s a risky play, best limited to deep leagues or as a DFS option.
