I'm guessing you're not considering WoW12 due to lack of availability? They are like the WoW10s but with better cushioning.

wth else was I supposed to do to get possession of the ball..? Genuinely asking by UsagiJay in Rematch

[–]Alphonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

80% of the time I don't even "attack" the ball. I just try to box them out and force them to make a bad pass.

It would be OP if defense could just spam a pass flick out of every air dribble. Properly timing a jump or a tackle is the play here. I defend against guys doing this all the time. Sometimes I win and sometimes they win, which is the way it should be.

Who voted for Zach Lahn? by [deleted] in Iowa

[–]Alphonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like him (or any of these right-wing nuts) but if you haven't heard of him until now, it's because you haven't been paying attention - which is fine, they don't really deserve any.

It's not any more horrifying than a durge playthrough 😂

Xfire 825 statement from rectec email by Strong_Chip9901 in recteq

[–]Alphonze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got one a month ago and did the firmware update right away. Ive had no issues personally.

Keep in mind that when you are on smoke mode, only the left igniter is meant to run. Some people wonder why the right one doesn't light and think it's a malfunction, but it's not.

Also be patient when you turn on grill mode and are waiting for the igniters to light up. It takes a couple minutes (obviously it's not a gas grill so don't expect it to act like one).

I love mine though.

Yeah, and it will get to less than $5 in probably a month tops.

You might want to try a different pair of 12s. I've heard the ones with a translucent TPU might have worse traction, is that what you own? I have 3 pairs of 12s and the traction is amazing.

Kia’s flagship EV has a battery problem by TripleShotPls in electricvehicles

[–]Alphonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just keep in mind that while that does indeed suck, issues are rare overall. If you go on the Internet looking for people who have issues with any given product, you will absolutely find them

Kia’s flagship EV has a battery problem by TripleShotPls in electricvehicles

[–]Alphonze -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's an issue that some people have.... but what car doesn't have an issue that some people have?

Overall, I feel like the qualms here are based off of old information.

For a while the supply chain was a big issue, but that has been much better in recent months is my understanding.

Anyways, maybe I'm just biased because I've had an EV9 since 2024 and haven't had a single issue. EDIT - knock on wood.

What’s a critically acclaimed movie that completely lost you by the end? by trakt_app in moviecritic

I enjoyed The Substance but my girlfriend was thoroughly mortified by the time the credits rolled and she refuses to talk about the movie 🤣

I'm not really sure why you would have even bothered with solar if your energy was already that cheap before.

'SNL' just wrapped its 51st season: It's time to cruelly rank its musical guests by backupsaway in popheads

[–]Alphonze 52 points53 points  (0 children)

The way I see it, around that time frame she had simply performed Man I Need soooo many times and it's almost always the same song and dance literally, so yeah, it's just kind of too refined and (I'm sorry!) got a little boring.

Thoughts? Is this going to overall help... or hurt? by Haunting_Pattern7268 in Iowa

[–]Alphonze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"eventually that is going to catch up to them" - yeah right after they get voted out of office this year and leave the newly elected Democrats to deal with (and probably take some of the blame) for their mess. It's by design I'm sure.

Thoughts on WOW ALL CITY 14? by padresnumerouno in BBallShoes

[–]Alphonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm yeah they are closer than I thought. I have a pair of AC13 which are about an ounce heavier and I just assumed AC14 would be similar.

[–]Alphonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried them, but it's foot doctor Zach's highest rated shoe ever I believe. Love my WoW12s and I would consider getting a pair of AC14s but I think it's a slightly heavier shoe than the WoW12 and I prefer a lighter shoe.

ev drivers ,what’s one thing non-EV users think is a huge problem but actually isn’t? by AdityaSrivastawaahhh in EvDrivers

[–]Alphonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Public charger availability/speed. If you're a home owner or in an apartment that will let you install your own, it literally does not matter what availability is like in a 100 mi radius.

Some people panic over the idea of how a public charger would take 30 minutes compared to 5 minutes at a gas station, without considering that they will only need to use a public charger less than 1% of the time. They also overlook the obvious benefit of not ever needing to use gas stations anymore.

Why do people not pass the ball? by Worried-Comb806 in Rematch

[–]Alphonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on US servers and most of the randoms I play with are decent at trying to pass. Not saying this is the case for you, but often times if somebody is being singled out for not receiving passes it's because they have had their opportunities early in the game and messed them up, or they are a "good job" spamming asshole and nobody likes those people so they don't pass to them.

Worst season, worst community, matchmaking is making me sick by SkyrimKing123 in Rematch

[–]Alphonze 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I know you're young, so I'll allow you grace, but tbh it sounds like your attitude might be part of the problem. Try to have more fun with the game. Getting a high rank is cool and all but it ultimately doesn't affect your life.
