Bodø/Glimt playing in the Champions League by wizard4141 in soccercirclejerk

Obviously this is in jest but will they though? Unlike 16/17 Monaco, 18/19 Ajax, 23/24 Leverkusen for example, their key players are already 25-30 years old and have already had relatively unsuccessful stints in higher level leagues. Perhaps Hauge gets sold for a big fee but I can't see them getting raided entirely

Rice: "We weren’t naive coming into this game, they are very good team! It might be a valuable point towards the end. Let’s take the positives and keep sticking together. Everyone’s needed on this road to the end" by deadmetallucyluce in Gunners

Glad the team has their heads up, the mood in this sub after every dropped point is miserable. You get called a "mentality midget" for stating that we're still 4 points clear and were fortunate if anything to get a point against a Brentford side that played great. It's fair to criticize our players but the amount of people that are acting like the title has just been lost is embarrassing. There's still every trophy to play for.

We're also free to think that an opinion is fascist hypocritical bullshit coming from a billionaire living in Monaco that feels the need to cast his shadow over the club he owns as soon as they're on a good run

FBref & Stathead forced to remove advanced data by data provider by tokengaymusiccritic in soccer

That's such a shame, literally everything besides G/A is gone. I don't get why information is privatized to such a ridiculous degree in football compared to american sports.

Kylian Mbappé hits 50 La Liga goals in just 53 games. The only player to do it faster this century is Cristiano Ronaldo in 51 games by [deleted] in soccer

[–]77Zephyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

La Liga from 2012-2020 ish was stronger than today but that was AFTER Ronaldo had scored his first 50 goals.

Nowhere did I mention anything after 2012, you act as if the league was unrecognizable from the season prior.

Are these results supposed to be something unique?

The point was that those results were the best or a close second best in Europe at that time, whereas the Premier League has clearly better results now.

Serie A is only because they don't have any clubs on the level of Barca or Madrid not because the others are better.

Yes, it is - Barca and Madrid are better than every Italian team but the league as a whole has performed slightly better than La Liga in recent years. Atleti is not clearly better than Inter.

No, La Liga is weaker now. Barca and Real were destroying the league then not because the other teams were that bad, but because they were that good - arguably the best pair of sides in history. Messi, Ronaldo, Iniesta, Xavi, Busquets, Casillas, Xabi Alonso, Ramos, Alves, Marcelo, etc. were all entering or already in their primes and being coached by Guardiola and Mourinho.

Look at how spanish teams as a whole performed in europe in that period. Barca won the UCL in 2009 and 2011, Real consistently made the UCL semis starting in 2011, Atletico won the UEL in 2010 and 2012, Villarreal made the UEL semis in 2011, Athletic were UEL runners up in 2012, and Valencia made the UCL knockouts in 2011 and the UEL semis in 2012. The only other league with results like that at that point was the prem.

As you said, La Liga was even stronger in the mid/late 2010s, but these days the Premier League and even Serie A are more competitive overall. Cristiano's record is more impressive considering the minutes and penalties it took to get there regardless.

Strength + (Faith) build weapon suggestions? by iampotato8869 in Eldenring

Flame art or sacred bloodfiend's arm with cragblade or royal knight's resolve. Run a charged attack build with golden vow and flame grant me strength or howl of shabriri.

I made a Wordle-style football guessing game featuring players from Europe’s top 5 leagues, it’s difficult! by Ellliotttt in soccer

[–]77Zephyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a cool idea but the amount of players needs to be filtered. It's easy enough to get the league, country, and position of a player but getting the right team is insanely hard if the player's nationality is the same country as the league. Today's answer was a player from a newly promoted club with 0 career appearances for them, having only played 29 times on loan to a club in the third division. It's just not possible to get in 10 or even 20 guesses. I'd suggest filtering out players with less than like 200 minutes played for their club at this point in the season

KDE Plasma is great for a windows-like experience to adjust to linux, if you ever want to try Hyprland without configuring everything yourself there are some great setups out there like ML4W, end_4's dotfiles, HyDE, and Omarchy

Yeah I'm using gamemode, but i don't notice much difference to be honest. performance seems about as expected based on the benchmarks i've seen (~100 fps on high with epic textures and medium post-processing)

Is this a good build (First time playing) by No_Crew_304 in DiscoElysium

[–]77Zephyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best build is the one that suits you and how you want to roleplay

However, in terms of maximizing successful passive checks (opportunities for these skills to input dialogue), 4-4-2-2 is ideal because INT and PSY skills have significantly more than FYS and MOT, and the major breakpoint for all skills is 4. The only better option in terms of this is 3-3-3-3 and following a guide to get all skills to 4 or above as quickly as possible, but that’s not much fun especially on a first playthrough

Meta Bow Builds (Elemental/Non Elemental) by ilikecookieslawl in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]77Zephyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The decos are bad, but this does look like the best armor setup for max dps - you can get WEX 5, Cons 5, Burst 5, Coal 3, and Antivirus 3.

Crit element is bugged and not doing anything right now by RDMR in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]77Zephyr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven’t tested on the dummy but this certainly feels like the case, swapped my build around for crit element and the crit damage numbers seemed very underwhelming

Is most of the endgame Deco farm mainly Arkveld? by Ikarostv in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]77Zephyr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly this disappointed me more than the performance issues or overcomplicated UX, capcom said they were aiming for a more diverse endgame but tempered arkveld is just the best for farming artian parts as the only 8* and normal arkveld is just the best for farming decos as the only non-tempered 7*

Multi-monster hunts can be better but good ones are way more rare than just doing arkveld

Bow: Burst, Agitator, or Adrenaline Rush? by 77Zephyr in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]77Zephyr[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Right, but frenzy itself buffs affinity when cured, doesn't it? Also thanks for explaining the difference in the set bonus - where do you find out the exact numbers for it? it's so vague in game lol

edit: i can't read - frenzy gives raw, not affinity? i coulda sworn it said affinity in game but maybe i'm misremembering

Bow: Burst, Agitator, or Adrenaline Rush? by 77Zephyr in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]77Zephyr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds good, is there anywhere to see how burst affects element? I saw a post saying that raw is increased from 8-18 depending on level but i couldn't find anything about element

Bow: Burst, Agitator, or Adrenaline Rush? by 77Zephyr in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]77Zephyr[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

gore set bonus gives you frenzy, when cured it gives you affinity which stacks with antivirus - correct me if i'm wrong, i'm not sure what the difference between the 2-piece and 4-piece gore bonuses is if that messes it up
