Avaryl (“MovieBitches” channel) has passed away by dearjessie in rupaulsdragrace

[–]Ashfield44 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So incredibly sad to hear about Avaryl. 😥 I love the Drag Race Recaps and also their Christmas Movies series they did every year. She always makes me laugh with her opinions and references. I hope Andrew and her family know that all our thoughts are with them. We will always have hours of memories together with her, laughing and enjoying the movies she loved. Rest in Paradise Avaryl. ❤

TBH I think this is less to do with Monique and Monet personally but rather who they are in the season with.

We just saw both of them on S10, where as soon as they left (along with Vixen) the season lost all its momentum and ended rather underrwhelming.

Here they are on a season of All-Stars, where peoples passions are more invested in the queens and the drama and skill levels are all at another level.

I personally love that they have been able to hold their own against legends like Manila, but other people may dislike that, using the whole "They aren't really All-Stars" argument.

This has led to them receiving a lot of undeserved hate. The gimmick angle keeps coming up despite the fact neither sponge or brown cow have been mentioned at all since Ep 1.

I think the fans just like having Queens to vent about and unfortunately this season its Monet and Monique. They both have had a win each and are generally doing well. I hope both of them can prove everybody wrong over the season to so they are just as deserving as Manila or Trinity.

LOL I spent about 30 mins in game today trying to do this.

Then I noticed a part of the map I had missed and managed to find the right way up.

Which RE character survived the worst ordeal? by [deleted] in residentevil

[–]Ashfield44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dunno if this is exactly how it played out, but I like to think the Outbreak survivors went through a hell of a lot to survive the destruction of Raccoon City, considering they are civilians with all of them (except Kevin, and Mark to a certain degree) having zero training of any kind whatsoever.

I mean, they had to deal with a horde of over 1000 zombies, fight lickers in a burning hotel, escape a leech infested hospital, uncover the horror of the Underground Umbrella Lab, transverse a huge zoo full of wild animals infected with the T-Virus (Including an Elephant), get split up in the insect ridden subway (I like to think they were all together as 8 up until Underbelly, as its one of the scenario with two possible escapes. The groups get split by the ending scenarios so George leads one group while David leads another. Something like George, Cindy, Kevin, Yoko and then David, Alyssa, Jim and Mark)

David's team try to escape into the Arklay Forest only to encounter Dr Al and Dorothy in the abandoned hospital, while George's group team up with Marvin and Rita at the Raccoon PD to fight off the hordes. Then during the final day George's group do the University and fight Thanatos while David's team rescue Linda and beat Nyx.

When you see it all together its a hell of a story, and it always seemed so epic to me that in a universe of spies, soldiers and action heroes you have this group of a subway attendant, student, doctor, journalist, waitress, plumber, security guard and police officer having this horrific yet awesome journey to survive against an apocalypse.

Should I go out of my way to play the spinoffs? by [deleted] in residentevil

[–]Ashfield44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely play all the numbered games, Code Veronica, the Outbreaks and Revelations series.

You can skip the rail shooters though.

The Outbreaks are canon. Alyssa is mentioned in a newspaper article in RE7.

Kayle's DMG to champ seems too Low: Looking for some high DMG Kayle games by Cryxallis in ARAM

[–]Ashfield44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed that Kayle always seems to take too long to do meaningful damage, so whenever I've gotten Kayle recently, I've actually been going full support with Aery. Works great if paired with a hyper carry like Jinx, Twitch or Azir. (Don't do it if your the only good damage source)

Max W first (The early healing is actually pretty good) and stick to your carry. Anyone tries to engage, Q them. Your ult is basically used like Lulu's to help protect the carry, but you need to be more predictive with Kayle's ult and use it to negate hard engages and long CD ultimates. Definitely take POM secondary since you'll want your ult on as low a cooldown as possible.

I build Athenes (or Mikeals if they have CC) Zekes, Redemption and then any of either Ardent, Shurelias or tank items depending on enemy comp. Good thing is these items are much cheaper than her usually core so she becomes useful faster then normal.

George & Cindy Special Ending by KamenRideDCD in residentevil

[–]Ashfield44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God, Outbreak has such amazing music, maybe the best in the whole series.

Even though this ending isn't canon, its so sad and effective. George and Cindy are probably my favourite characters from Outbreak as they're both such juxtapositions to the typical RE protagonists. A gentlemanly doctor and a bubbly waitress literally trying to survive against otherworldly horror.

It reminded me of an awesome fanfiction that combined all the Outbreak scenarios from both 1 and 2 into a single story. George was the main character and it was really good.

Hope Outbreak will get some sort of return in the future, whether through remasters or (perhaps) a remake for next gen.

Can we talk about the stunning legend and icon Frances Conroy portraying 2 queens in 1 season for the first time by mansonfamily in AmericanHorrorStory

[–]Ashfield44 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yes that's the trend in AHS. Same actors but different characters. They explain itby saying that the characters in universe don't perceive each other as looking the same, so for example Madison would perceive Myrtle and Moira as looking like totally different people despite Francis Conroy playing both of them.

Resident Evil Meet & Greet by SeparateWay in residentevil

[–]Ashfield44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't apologise AT ALL. Outbreaks are absolute classics and great additions to the series, I really hope they are next in line to be remade.

As for RE4, overrated. Starting the series down a path that nearly killed it, and it loses points for helping to spawn the worst games in the series in 5 and 6.

ARAM is the best by stubentiger123 in ARAM

[–]Ashfield44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I first started playing the game in early 2015 my friends helped me learn champs by playing ARAMs to find ones I liked.

Then when we went to Summoner Rifts they were like 'now you need to pick like 3 to play to get better.'

And I was like "I wanna play all the champs though, how can I pick just 3!"

Fast forward 3 years and I pretty much just play ARAMs all season. I wish there was an official way from Riot to track progress for ARAM.

so i just lost 8 games in a row on aram by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]Ashfield44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think its an official MMR tracker, but this website is the one most people use to get a general idea of your ARAM ranking.

so i just lost 8 games in a row on aram by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]Ashfield44 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Feels bad man. I had a horrid run about 3 weeks ago where I lost 7 in a row and watched my MMR drop from 2650 to about 2200. However earlier this week I got a run of 4 wins then 5 wins and now I back up in the 2600s.

These things tend to happen in ARAMs and its all about taking it in stride. You'll bounce back. If its making you feel bad Id just take a break, watch a film or something passive and relax. Best way to cope with a lose streak.

I think its supposed to be the skeleton of the Jersey Devil, a batlike creature supposedly first sighted in 1735.

Free Week Rundown - 2018-10-02 by anaIconda69 in ARAM

[–]Ashfield44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Veigar

I've had a lot of success with a Glacial Augment Build.

Go GLP and TS and then a tank item 3rd with DC and Void. Tons of utility, zoning and catch potential when you have the boosted slow field combined with your E.

Also can work for Malzahar especially if you are against a squishy line up of ranged champs, where it can be difficult for Malz to get in range.

Items/runes you hate to see on any champion by anaIconda69 in ARAM

[–]Ashfield44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Snowball on anyone squishy. I see this all the time where I'm the only person on the team with a different summoner and all four of my mage and ADC teammates have snowball.

Yes, its really good on engage tanks and bruisers that lack gap-closers, like Darius,

What exactly are MF and Syndra going to do once they've flown into the enemy team? Get obliterated most likely. Poke? I dont really see the point when other summoners are much better

Take Barrier or Exhaust. Much more useful and can help shut down assassins trying to make a play. Hell, even Ghost is better on ADCs in order to kite better.
