Clash Royale Decks: Best Guards Decks in Season 15 of Clash Royale.

Clash Royale Decks: The guards are on boost this season! So, here are some of the best guards decks and meta predictions for you in mid-ladder.Season 15 is here and with the Guards on boost, it is no wonder that these pesky little helmeted Larrys are all over the place. Everyone is using them!What meta changes will the boosted Guards cause?There is no doubt of the fact that boosted Guards will heavily influence Season 15, especially around mid-ladder. Players should expect to see a drastic reduction in Prince usage rates throughout the game.

Both of those troops are just too inefficient at destroying the Guard shields. However, given their relatively cheaper cost, they might not suffer as much as the Prince. Poor him! On the other hand, usage rates for all splash cards across the board should rise. Players should expect to see…

Original Bad Brains Singer Sid McCray Has Died

Sidney McCray, the original singer for the massively important hardcore punk band Bad Brains, has died. As Blabbermouth reports, Bad Brains revealed McCray's death in a Facebook post on Saturday. McCray died on September 9. McCray's age and cause of death have not yet been reported. Bad Brains started out in 1976 as a jazz fusion group called Mind Power. McCray, a friend of the members of Mind Power, is widely credited for getting the group into punk rock and heavy metal. The group changed its name to Bad Brains in 1977, naming themselves after the Ramones song "Bad Brain." Bad Brains went on to crank punk rock up to impossible speeds, inspiring entire generations and more or less inventing hardcore. When Mind Power became Bad Brains, McCray became the group's original singer, though he left the band in 1978. Guitarist Paul Hudson, better known as H.R., became the group's new frontman, and he's easily the most famous singer that Bad Brains have ever had. McCray, also known as SidMac,

Watch Members Of Mastodon, Cave In, & Baroness Play Metal Cover Of Fleetwood Mac’s “You Make Loving Fun”

The Two Minutes To Late Night video series has been one of the few reliable bright spots of a dark-ass year. Once a week, the comedian Jordan Olds gathers together a group of metal, punk, and hardcore luminaries, and they all remotely cover a classic song. In recent weeks, Two Minutes To Late Night has saluted Rage Against The Machine, Billy Idol, and Robyn. Today, the show has put together a truly impressive band to cover a Fleetwood Mac classic. Fleetwood Mac's "You Make Loving Fun" is not even remotely a metal song, though it might be one of the most cold-blooded works of popular music you will ever encounter. Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie, when she was still married to her bandmate John McVie, write the song about the affair she was having with the band's lighting director. "You Make Loving Fun" became one of the singles from the band's blockbuster 1977 album Rumours, and it was a top-10 hit for the band. It's a cute, breezy jam until you know the backstory, at which point it

Greece to buy 18 Rafale jets and 4 new French frigates

BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:00 A.M.) – Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis confirmed on Saturday, that his country will buy 18 Rafale fighters from France and four new frigates. At the height of the tension between his country and Turkey, the Greek Prime Minister, speaking in the city of Thessaloniki, announced Athens’s intention to acquire Romeo SH-60 naval helicopters, torpedoes, anti-tank and guided missiles, recruiting an additional 15,000 military personnel, and increasing funding for the national war industries sector. Tensions have escalated between Greece and Turkey since Ankara launched a gas exploration campaign last August in a disputed area between the two countries in the Mediterranean. The supply of French-made fighter aircraft and frigates to Greece will surely infuriate Turkey, who has criticized Paris for their ‘aggressive’ behavior in the eastern Mediterranean. Source: RT

Russia’s Avangard hypersonic missiles are ‘more frightening than a nuclear bomb’: Sina

BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:20 A.M.) – The China-based Sina News Agency said that the Russian “Sarmat”, “Avangard” and “Yaris” missile systems have distinct combat characteristics and are very dangerous to any enemy forces. The site said that the re-arming of the Russian missile forces and equipping them with these missile models, which have a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, “puts America in an endless quandary.” The author of the article focused on the particular interest of Avangard hypersonic missiles. He said that the U.S. air defense is unable to intercept these missiles because of their ability to disappear and thanks to their tremendous speed that makes them particularly effective. The article stresses that “an Avangard missile can reach Washington within 15 minutes. During this period of time, the Americans will not have time even to drink a cup of coffee, let alone the ability to repel this Russian missile.”
