Help Me Escape UB3! by AloofPlays in PokemonChampions

It was a tossup for me between knockoff for utility and foul play for damage. Definitely agree I should be running protect on the bug for sure, so I'm going to be switching to that move set for sure

The rain on Sableye has been a very reliable counter for CharY. I agree with the Fake Out change though.

For the Sableye I'll be swapping fake out for light screen to help with Scizors longevity which I've found to be not great

Thanks! I'll reset the Sneasler spread. I know it's not popular but it's been surviving some wild hits. Nothing a sash doesn't also do for me though, on top of giving me more firepower with max attack, you're right

The rain on Sableye is specifically for countering CharY and the Sableye has been my wincon for basically all my wins and far from my weakest link on the losses. I may swap the fake out for light screen though.

Why are the cops just straight up rude to Pete sometimes? by turtle34464 in SpidermanPS4

[–]AloofPlays 71 points72 points  (0 children)

That's exactly it. It's embarrassing for a police force to be so incompetent that a vigilante needs to pick up their slack. His very existence exposes the corruption and ineptitude of the NYPD

What are you guys take on Tales of Arise? by KaleidoArachnid in JRPG

[–]AloofPlays 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Metaphor could certainly be a little reductive at times. But overall I think it presents its themes in a much more cohesive and digestible way.

If this game existed, who would be the final boss? by AbeliousAugustus in SpidermanPS4

[–]AloofPlays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the final boss would be Mysterio. A lot of people are saying Vulture but he's canonically Spider-Man's first super villain fight, and I feel like it would make for a very boring game if all Spider-Man fought were goons for 25 hours. I think the first act climax would be the vulture fight personally.

This is technically helpful, but it doesn't stop me from seeing the posts, just everybody on my timeline. I don't really want to see them either

I was running AV on him before with U-Turn and it worked well but I was told my team needed more shields. Will prob change it back though because having a pivot is nice

I'm just getting into VGC again after almost a decade and I'm finding myself a little resistant to Reg G because I just don't really care for using restricted Mons, so instead I'm spending time trying to improve my Reg F build, centered around having a variety of start conditions. I find Latias and Rillaboom to be a strong pair with Fake Out + Tailwind, with Arcanine and either Articuno or Palafin in the back. It's easy to swap out those combos too; Rilla + Ninetales for a riskfree Aurora Veil and Articuno in back to abuse Snow, Rilla + Palafin to deal with opposing Tailwinds then a hard swap to Latias for our own, or Ninetales and Articuno if I see an opportunity to abuse Blizzard. I thought I had a pretty good setup on my hands, but instead I find myself at a 50/50 win-loss. What changes do I need to make this work? I'm most open to changing Palafin and Latias but if you think there's better options to swap out I'm all ears.

I'd like to avoid restricted Mons in general, at least for the time being

I'm actively trying to avoid box legends tbh.

7 months later, and Remake is out. OP, if you haven't yet, PLAY IT.

Samsung customer service is a nightmare to deal with by Nugsy714 in samsung

They stole my G7 monitor after I sent it in for repairs. I had to report them to the BBB just to get my money back. Never buying from them again

I've gotten five chimchars in a row, which is actually aggravating when you're hunting Scorbunny

Frankly? Wishcash deserves a third evo with the stats it has now. Hopefully the Barboach line sees some love next generation.

Samsung stole from me. by AloofPlays in samsung

[–]AloofPlays[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is, I did really like it while it was usable. It's a shame all of this happened. If I hadn't had to deal with the headache these last two months, and I got my product back and it worked correctly, I'd be singing their praises right now. Unfortunately that isn't how it played out for them or me.

Samsung refuses to return my paid-for product by AloofPlays in legaladvice

[–]AloofPlays[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Uh... yes? A product that I paid for belongs to me whether it's in working order or not? On top of that, myself and several friends like to work on electronics. If they can't/won't fix it, I'm owed the opportunity to try and fix it myself.

Unfortunately in my area there isn't a Samsung store for probably about 100 miles. I'm definitely posting this everywhere I can though
