A university educator based in Japan, he spends his time enjoying linguistics, games, nature, basketball, movies, music, and eats. He also sometimes plays Hero Realms a little.
Tim McKenzie (IGN agentc13) is a Hero Realms Legend (2021 Origins Game Fair) and an avid player of board/card games. He enjoys streaming, game analysis, and spreadsheets. Be sure to check out the many articles he has written for Realms Rising and sign up for one of the online tournaments he organizes.
Rounding out the podcast team are Sam "scrapforce" Parsons, who does a lot of the development for the Hero Helper app, Chris "DblDubz" Walberg, the premier Hero Realms digital streamer and top online player, and Cooper "filtrophobe" Fitzgerald, S&R's data-analysis expert and also highly skilled player.

Kicking off this episode, the crew of DblDubz, Filtrophobe, and Tuff announce that they will be hosting a tournament with a grand prize of a Hero Realms Digital Legends account! (Available to non-Legend account holders only! Check the link below for details and to sign-up.)
After this the crew breaks down a Dungeons character showdown between a Necromancer and a Druid. The Meta Mashup takes center stage for the episode as Filtrophobe takes us through all the latest Hero Helper data with much more significant sample sizes than available in our previous episode. Things are certainly taking shape around the latest update.
This segues into Tuff’s latest experiment, an Elf Barbarian which we discuss in the Build Lab. From here we open up the Mailbag to continue our segment on beating the nut draw for each class. Tucked away in the Round-up is a star related rant that you won’t want to miss. Finally the crew says their goodbyes with their taps and scraps. Thanks for listening!
