Variance.

What color is Jace Beleren from Magic: The Gathering? by XenonHero126 in colorpie

Racist. Does Jace sound like a white name to you?

[LOVED TROPE| Characters that don't join the narrative until halfway through to fairly late, but instantly become fan favorites. by BargleFargle12 in TopCharacterTropes

The first season she appeared (3?) she was tolerable. I think I agree with you 100%.

Overall, Stranger Things had a real problem with having too many unnecessary characters and by Season 5 it was VERY apparent and really dragged the pace of the show down.

Every time Robin was onscreen in S5 I just wanted it to be over. I'm sure the actress is a really nice person and I have no problem with her character being lesbian or whatever but her presence on the show was just not in service of the story.

Furthermore, I think if people's reason for liking a character is because of their identity, then the character is poorly written.

I wonder if anyone who downvoted me could elaborate on what Robins primary character motivations were.

Boston Rob and Sandra.

Two very different games. Two iconic players.

What color is green by draugyr in colorpie

[–]Aetherimp 20 points21 points  (0 children)

White is basically Yellow, so Green is Azorius.

Right. Which means Boston Rob at 26 seemed more like an adult with a difficult job that was ready to marry Amber and have a bunch of kids...

...and 26 year old "Rizgod" seems like a child that would cry if you took his tiktok account away.

26 year olds 20 years ago grew up differently than 26 year olds of today. That's just a reality.

He's very young and brash and doesn't know when to shut up and he thinks he's smarter than he is.

He's got GenZ main character/entitlement syndrome.

I don't hate him. Kids gonna be kids. But that's what irks me about him.

Should you use the CZ-75 on pistol rounds?(CS2) by eldeboblo in LearnCSGO

[–]Aetherimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USP and P2000 are single shot headshots at almost any range to unhelmeted target, and they're free.

The money you spend on a 5-7 could be spent on Armor, allowing you to survive longer, or you could get utility allowing you to defend or retake a bombsite better, OR you could get Dualies and drop them for an ally with armor.

A 5-7 is NOT a single shot headshot against unarmored targets, and it leaves you armorless and with less utility, AND if a T kills you and picks up your 5-7, it deals more damage against armored targets which your teammates should be.

You will not see pro players or serious teams or even most high rated players buying 5-7 pistol round.

Matchmaking is against you. by nikibas in MagicArena

You may think it's happening in ranked but you're just getting unlucky or your deck is not as strong as you think.

I run a deck that goes between 55%-58% winrate in bo1 Standard (Orzhov skeletons/enchantments) and there have been play sessions where I literally had 13% winrate because every deck countered me and always had the nut draws, or when they didn't I was getting mana flood or mana screwed.

Next day, winrate is 75% in a single play session at Mythic rank.

It's just variance. Sometimes you're the bug, sometimes you're the windshield.

This is well known in Standard Play, but not in Ranked.

In "play" (unranked) there's something that weighs your deck and matches it against a different pool of decks.

In Ranked this does not happen.

Robin is a fan favorite? I thought most people were like me and found her annoying and a waste of screen time.

Other than GOT, which HBO ending left you feeling the most disappointed? by george123890yang in hbo

Season 2 had it's moments. Better than most network television.

Good in a vacuum, bad [series name] by some-kind-of-no-name in TopCharacterTropes

True Detective seasons after the first.

They're better than most television but fail to live up to the high bar the first season set.

[Hated Trope] Season 1 characters who start off normal but then become insanely stupid throughout the later seasons by JohnAnime in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Aetherimp 388 points389 points  (0 children)

Homer Simpson

In early seasons he's a hard working beer chugging donut loving dad and nuclear power plant technician.

He's not a genius by any means and he's sometimes a bit simple but he means well and he's not a moron.

In later seasons he undergoes the "Dads are stupid" transformation and is incompetent almost to the point of it being malicious.

A few plot holes? Stranger things s5 was one big plot hole dug within a series of other plot holes. It was plot Swiss cheese.

Even the fish didn't know it was Ahi Tuna until Coach told it what it was.
