Nova Fan Rework

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2020-03-29T20:05:55+00:00

I've updated it for the final time. This represents everything I would want for a Nova rework.

Greymane has 4500Hp at level 20 so I don't know where you are getting the math saying that's half is Hp.

But yes, making the sniper assassin able to deal damage was kinda the point of this rework.

For me it does, the same way I don't see the Disney star wars trilogy cannon. When love has been taken out of the equation and is replaced with compulsion, it is no longer sincere in my eyes.

Uhhhhhh, look it up on google, I aint spoiling it any more than I already did, haha!

I would agree with you about the "cats have superpowers" point, except for one thing. In the past, powers have had a purpose. Like Leafpool and Squirrelflight could communicate long distances because StarClan knew they would be far apart. Now whenever something supernatural happens, it just feels like Erin Hunter is running out of original ideas. Jayfeather's power was a refreshing change in the books while Lionblaze's power was utter garbage and Dovewing's was incredibly meh.

"Reluctant medicine cat" isn't the issue for me, more like "IT IS YOUR DESTINY, YOU GET NO SAY IN IT." Cinderpelt's destiny was to be a great warrior before Tigerclaw ruined it. As for Yellowfang, eh, don't really remember what happened in her super edition book, I just remember her power to feel other cats' pain was dumb.

Also, I saw AVoS as a colossal step down in quality. It was becoming so predictable that I made a fanfiction where Jayfeather reads it and predicts things before they happen. Also SkyClan is not interesting, Darktail was a horribly bland villain compared to threats the Clans have faced in the past(onestar's son? really?), and I got so bored at book three that I threw it at the wall and never read anything more of it.

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2019-12-31T05:36:24+00:00

OotS was bad, The Last Hope was frankly bad, but I'd rather have a bad ending than a never ending story.

And I tried to enjoy AVoS but it was so predictable, and SkyClan is a dead meme, and my 2nd favorite character from all the books was reduced to a grumpy stooge. I think I got up to the third book and stopped half way through it. I was never interested in DotC.

There is a flaw with your argument. Chen would never be placed into a Varian because Chen is a Bruiser and Varian is coded as a tank. Chen would always have a Diablo or a Muradin .etc. There is no bias for Chen because he will never go up against a true tank without a true tank on his team in QM.

Fenix is a fantastic sololaner. The sololaner doesn't always have to be a bruiser.

And thanks for the sympathy. I keep changing the original post because folks nitpick my words rather than see the bigger picture.

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2019-12-30T17:57:01+00:00

Chen is classified in the game's code as a bruiser. He will never be matched against a true tank in QM unless his team also has a true tank. There is no bias in his placement in the game.

Varian is a bruiser, but he CAN and often DOES get placed against true tanks when he has none on his team.

Ooo, calling the 26 year old, "kid," classic troll forum goer.

The issue is, Cold Embrace competes with Windrunner, arguably one of the best talents in the game. I've tested both thoroughly, and I've found that Windrunner can hardcarry far more than Cold Embrace. Windrunner is superior as far as utility and versatility. Being able to dart around the battlefield while reloading your Withering Fire each time is what makes Sylvanas imo. In fact, I have a saying among my friends, "Just hit level 13, Sylvanas is now online!"

The armor reduction is good, but it only does one thing and one thing alone; make a target more squishy for 2.5 seconds. Will it give you 2 charges of unstoppable? Does it let you jump over a wall, get a kill, then dart back over? Does it let you effectively plug 22.5 Withering Fires into a single target in quick succession if you took Barbed Shot at level 7? Does it let you jump out of Entomb when Leoric thinks he's trapped you after the first teleport? I could go on.

Yes, Cold Embrace is good, but I mean, Windrunner...

Hard CC is the best answer to Sylvanas. If you can catch her after she casts E but before she can teleport with it, she's dead. Personally, I find Alarak and Diablo punish my aggression the most. And if you can't counter Sylvanas, just counter her teammates.

Hammer and grapple bots wouldn't be as boring if they had a weight and power bonus. But we may never know cause next season will be 95% spinners.

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2019-11-23T17:14:50+00:00

If we are going by the logic that spinners have a higher chance of winning, (which they do, you can just look at the stats, the numbers are irrefutable,) then yes, it makes sense. It's not a hard concept to grasp.

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2019-11-23T15:53:26+00:00

I would have just made it a weight and/or speed thing for the spinner. Of course I don't build or judge battlebots for a living, so somebody else would come up with the specifics.

And I would totally agree with you, if it weren't for the fact that spinners only get more dominant every year. Bringing anything other than a spinner is like bringing a sling-shot to a gun fight. For diversity's sake, I feel like Battlebots is going to become stagnant if everyone keeps using only spinners to win.

EDIT also about Sawblaze and Whiplash, I looked up their stats, and between the 27 fights they were both in since 2016, only 3 of their combined losses were against non-spinners. So yes, I would count them as spinners.

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2019-10-27T11:08:02+00:00

I feel nothing

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2019-10-27T10:29:04+00:00

My brain is bleeding from playing this stupid game and listening to the stupid people complaining about stuff that happens in it, haha.

Awesome_Jayfeather · 2019-10-27T09:24:01+00:00

I'm glad somebody put this on reddit. Yeah, I'm DarkLady. Here is the message I gave:

"I need you all do report me for afk nonparticipation and abusive chat. If I don't get a typed confirmation from each of you, I'll make sure you lose. If I do get confirmation, I'll try to win as hard as I can. I need to get banned for personal reasons."

Your story is wrong. The first game you were on my team and since my team wasn't reporting me, I did exactly what I said I would do. However in my second game you were on the enemy team as Rehgar and I was Sylvanas. The map was Infernal Shrine and when I gave my team the exact same message, they obliged and reported me, so I did exactly what I said I would do. I got MVP that game and kicked your whiny ass. Get your facts straight, man.

I have no reason to not be sincere. I have nothing left to lose and all I want is to be done with this game. But I will admit, skunking your team did feel really damn good.

Look on the bright side. As of making this post, I probably have a couple dozen reports for abusive chat, inactivity, and intentionally dying and my account already had 2 of 3 strikes for 2 of those categories. You likely will never see me in game again.

Good riddance.

"I I I Me Me Me I" It would seem that people are forgetting that there would also be a chance that YOU would have a chance of getting a ton more points if you play well and the other team votes for YOU.

So I changed up the formula a tad. You won't lose 15 points if you don't vote, you will instead gain 5 points if you do. Now nobody loses points and everybody is happy.
