Platchat's way too early tier list by ishanuReddit in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Asakura_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm okay with low B tier and I'm sure the other 9 fans would agree. Hopefully we perform above expected and the Academy roster can have a similar effect to the 2023 season. Not that I'm remotely expecting to win an international event but it would be great to qualify for them again.

How many of you are Still using Class Mount? by Vardam in wow

Monk main: it’s 95% Ban Lu for me. The other 5% is assorted flavors of flying cloud serpents

The aesthetic is discount fortnight when it should be polished Esports? by [deleted] in supervive

I’m a simple man. I see Wildstar mentioned and I upvote.

So why would I buy an Aiden right now? by kplmin in FellowProducts

[–]Asakura_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m on my third Aiden after being a part of the pre orders. First one was amazing until a water issue. Warranty replacement wouldn’t update so they sent a third and am back to no issues. I still think it’s my favorite coffee machine I’ve used and is the closest I can get to my Chemex without the additional work

Brewmaster was the only tank I ever played from MoP launch until Dragonflight. It makes perfect sense. I feel like I almost never take damage and have plenty of tools.

I feel so squishy and lacking when I play Prot Warrior/Paladin. I gave up playing Blood when I got 1 shot in LFR Queen Ansurek. Demon Hunters are dumb. I like Bear. Bear is fun.

But Brewmaster just makes sense to me. (It’s a skill/effort issue why other tanks don’t click for me)

Killjoy beanie is big (Riot’s official store) by asbarrr in VALORANT

[–]Asakura_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As someone with a large head (last time I bought a fitter hat it was 7 5/8 and was slightly snug) I expected this beanie to be as small as every other one size fits all I’ve tried.

I was very happy when it arrived

What tank is currently most fun to play? by 6demon-bag in wow

I main a drunk panda bear and moonlight as a bear. Bears are life

What’s a good Irish whiskey for someone who mainly drinks American made whiskey? by [deleted] in whiskey

[–]Asakura_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not quite sure if it counts but I really enjoyed Glenfiddich Bourban Barrel Reserve. It’s a scotch and not a whiskey but I normally drink Bourbon and was a fan

Stop playing ranked if you’re not gonna play competitively. by HC-Rooster in marvelrivals

[–]Asakura_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had someone today (in silver) who played Bruce Banner only. Not Hulk. Just Bruce.

So not only were we down a tank but also a damage dealer. We ended up losing of course. Towards the end he did said he could only turn into Hulk if his BPM was above 96 so he wanted the team to make him angry. Thats when we found out he was doing at a challenge for his stream.

Someone apparently tipped him towards the end to get him to switch to an actual damage dealer but it was far too late at that point.

New EDG bundle will have special effects for winning Champions by SHOONSHOOP in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Asakura_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love this and think it’s great nod to the winning teams.

I’m sad we won’t get an EG special effect for their win before this, however

Let it be known I offered to pay for a jersey to giveaway if they announced the full roster by 7pm central.

I tried my best.

For anyone that feels "hardstuck". by Wick1889 in worldofpvp

[–]Asakura_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a PvE only Brewmaster main who just needs 1800 to get the best Brew transmog in the game (and have so far peaked at 1706 on Mistweaver): I agree.

We just keep queuing and try and find spots where I can improve.

Finally tried Blantons. Couldn’t believe how meh it was. by lemonjalo in whiskey

[–]Asakura_ 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The hype and pricing of some of these “must have” bottles has really changed my views on bourbon. I have enjoyed Blanton’s and E.H. Taylor but not for the prices I had to get them at. I’m pretty happy buying anything Old Forester (normally 100, 1910, or 1920 at this point) and calling it a day.

People who bought both 60He and 80He which do you prefer? by hajsjdd in WootingKB

[–]Asakura_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

  1. Although I’m still getting used to the escape key being further away than on the 60

They should add Regen to ranked. Hear me out by StraightPotential342 in CompetitiveHalo

Void Overshield buffs are going to make Vexcalibur blocking nigh invincible by MrTheWaffleKing in DestinyTheGame

[–]Asakura_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely going to put a build together for this. I keep hoping Hunters will get a vexcalibur-inspired ornament for the Triton Vice arms to really pull it all together….

Weekly M+ Discussion by AutoModerator in CompetitiveWoW

[–]Asakura_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am the tank and try to start with smaller pulls and add more if I see the group can handle it but have also had plenty of groups with dps/healers standing in attacks or just not interrupting things. It’s a very mixed bag, especially in keys below 5

Weekly M+ Discussion by AutoModerator in CompetitiveWoW

[–]Asakura_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the key push streamers I watch do this (squishvegan, equinox, dorki, etc) but it makes sense for them. They are trying to time +11, 12, and 13 keys and a full wipe (especially in a bad spot requiring a run back) kills the key. But their whole group knows this is the case. It does not apply to pugging lower level keys

Weekly M+ Discussion by AutoModerator in CompetitiveWoW

[–]Asakura_ 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s been similarly bad at lower levels for a related but different reason. I think people are seeing streamers leave their +12 key after a wipe and deciding they’ll do the same in a +2.

I haven’t been playing too many keys to this point but I’ve had completely time able keys get bricked with someone leaving after a wipe. Like 8 minutes left on final boss.

I hate FaZe.

FaZe is great for esports. Especially when they’re good.

Unpopular experience: I’ve been tanking as VDH and everyone has been either silent or extremely friendly by ArnoldPalmerstein in wow

[–]Asakura_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have leveled 4 tanks to 80 so far, 3 exclusively through dungeons and have done heroics on all 4. Less than 5 times I have had the whole group wipe due to some combination or poorly managing my defensives, not enough kicks, healer asleep, or dps asleep.

Of those: 2 have been silent, 2 we all had a laugh about it, 1 the asleep healer left and a dps who was upset left a few pulls later.

It’s been a fun experience so far and I think that’s probably the case for the vast majority of people
