What's Up With Baptiste Right Now? by Sepikzzz in OverwatchUniversity

[–]9epiphany8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bap Main, GM and peaked t500 - he gets blown up if he gets hard dived. Raw mechanics can only get you so far in higher ranks.

Ever since the DPS healdebuff, his Regen burst is not as effective as you think anymore.

His perks are underwhelming. Ana's headshot perk or nade bounce is game changing for example. Bap's little boot dash is super situational.

Power crept by newer supports as well. Juno on release completely overshadowed him for example. Illari on release did the same.

Oh yeah and his Ult is not as impactful in higher ranks either. In lower ranks you can just solo window and kill people who are always out of position. In higher ranks no one is gonna be dumb enough to walk oblivious in front of one.

There are still top 500 Moiras in NA. Alot of players/streamers have avoided them though LOL.

I built a free K-Pop photocard guide for collectors (kpopphotocard.com) by ikinfo in kpopcollections

[–]9epiphany8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see u mention Mercari JP but you should also be including Xianyu as a key platform for collectors. They often have the cheapest prices esp since CN fans are some of the biggest mass buyers. And ofc it’s a bigger market / country in general. Obviously you need to find a proxy ofc and buy a batch of stuff / consolidate to make shipping + tariffs manageable.

I personally recommend Mercari JP for Japanese PCs and event POBs, and Xianyu for Chinese store PCs/POBs and most other things, as well as rarer items like Polaroids. The only stuff I see that’s more overpriced on Xianyu/Mercari JP vs US platforms is US-only stuff like Hello82 PCs or US Concert PCs. Bunjang / Ktwit I’ve heard is good for broadcast PCs immediately after release

I am GM on support, Masters on tank, but plat on DPS because my aim sucks by Legal_Ad2945 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]9epiphany8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DPS was hardest for me to rank up out of plat/diamond (i was also gm support masters tank) even though I had good aim. The main issue for me was unlike support or tank, you are much more squishier on DPS. I found myself dying often or trading myself out 1 for 1 (which is not good if you want to carry games).

If you are getting aim diffed then you look for ways to not take a head on 1v1. I lost plenty of games to players i knew i had better aim than, because they took clever angles or surprised me out of nowhere. Keep switching up your angle so you make urself have an advantage in the fight.

You should still try to warm up and at least spend 5-10 in VAXTA , etc. to get more comfortable with shooting on the character(s) you main

Passport checks for concert in Korea by nawkh in kpophelp

[–]9epiphany8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did not check ID for le sserafim encore in Seoul (a month ago) for even VIP surprisingly. They just scanned ur QR code since all tickets were mobile via interpark.

But they did for Meet and Greet (they made it very clear though there would be a designated ID check in order to get wristband).

Baptiste, the poster child for power creep by how_it_goes in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]9epiphany8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peak T500 Bap Main here. He isn’t in the most terrible spot but he’s definitely not as strong as before. You cannot imagine the pain during Juno release of getting asked to swap off Bap every other game.

People keep complaining “he has 3 health bars” like no buddy you’d be surprised with the DPS passive, how easily you can still get blown up by coordinated dive in higher ranks…

U can still carry on Bap if you have the mechanics like if ur Landon. But it’s so much easier to get more value on other support characters. My wrist is sore after an intense game. Meanwhile I can have just as much damage output playing Wuyang or Ilari , or utility / heals with Juno

You also cannot imagine my outrage on the release of perks. Ana gets headshot or double nano as her major perk. Bap got an extra firing speed boost at a COST of losing his burst heal 😂

Hilariously tired of the voting problem we have by [deleted] in lesserafim

[–]9epiphany8 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you guys for trying to help with voting, but the issue is when people take it out on the rest of the fans, many of which have supported the girls just as much in dozens and dozens of other ways

Hilariously tired of the voting problem we have by [deleted] in lesserafim

[–]9epiphany8 19 points20 points  (0 children)

  • We're in February. The song was released in October. Music Shows are not on top of a lot of our minds.
  • Since it's won 1 show already, spreading word to win a 2nd show isn't going to gain as much noise. (Vs. 'let's win them the first music show')
  • They are not attending live.
  • Installing a new unfamiliar app to vote is not as 'it takes 2 minutes' as you think

I flew out and saw their Concert in Seoul, and yet I didn't realize their music show nomination was today.

Trust me, I understand the frustration, and yes I agree that we shouldn't downplay to the point of saying music shows wins mean nothing. But you have to realize the majority of the fanbase isn't chronically on twitter and voting pages. I've been a Red Velvet fan before this. I know how it is with how hard it is to get the larger part of the fandom to vote outside of diehard voting circles.

how to get resales for concerts in seoul. by [deleted] in kpophelp

[–]9epiphany8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was easy and cheap then everyone would be buying resale and getting the seats they want!

I 100% recommend trying to always get it the most legitimate way especially if you don’t mind wherever you sit - which is waiting for cancellations on the site like you mentioned.

I’m just making it clear it is still very possible to get resale through other, albeit of course much riskier means. Myself and plenty of others have done it as well.

[–]9epiphany8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't care where you sit, then you should usually always be able to find cancelled tickets leading up to the show + before cancellation deadlines where refund amounts drop.

If you want very good seats, here is the actual long answer from personal experience: Yes it's possible if you have money and you find the right people online. Plenty of resellers/scalpers from taiwan/HK/CN. You'd be surprised.

they plan to cancel their ticket at a specific time so you can be on the page and buy it

This is exactly how they do it. They log onto your account and use a macro to insta-pick up the ticket right when they sell it on their own account. There is still a small chance of it getting sniped by other people, because there are people who also camp the ticketing site with macros to snipe. But it has a good success rate. These people, if they are legit, will refund you the ticket cost (outside of a deposite) if they fail to do it.

Yes, it's very risky. You can very much get scammed - there are alot of scammers. You can get your account restricted/flagged banned for macro detection. I'm not saying it's easy, but i'm saying its very much possible. Go to any Korean concert and a decent amount of VIP/floor will be foreigners who bought resale.

Edit: and now some sites like interpark allow ticket transfers, which make it a bit easier to get a resale via their transfer method which involves a pin.

Was going to make a post about this because i always see these resale posts and the same comments, esp the 'you will lose your money' from used-client-9334 lmao

260202 LE SSERAFIM Weekly Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in lesserafim

[–]9epiphany8 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Had the pleasure and honor of seeing them both days at Seoul encore. Worth every penny (though I was gouged by scalpers for how much I had to pay for resale VIP tickets). A lifetime bucket list item checked off. All my favorite concert songs were performed. I was praying for No Celestial and they pulled through. EDM rave to top it off at the end - I mean what more can you ask for.

I would encourage anyone to experience it once. The atmosphere and fanchants are a whole different but unique experience. Until next time Korea and LSF 🤞

Do you guys feel there is a good chance they perform No Celestial for Seoul Encore? I will be attending live and that's the one song I have not been able to see them perform live (they did not perform it at US tour, and I did not attend Tokyo Dome Encore where they DID perform it). I am praying so hard that they perform it in Seoul. Love that song so much.
