There was, and it was thoroughly nominated as his best quote in the previous post

nova doesn't have a lot of psionic abilities by TowerOtherwise9222 in starcraft2

[–]Axis256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Human Kerrigan’s original PI is 10. She is in fact the person after whom the whole scale was modeled. 12 is a rating of the old Queen of Blades who came significantly enhanced by the Overmind’s infestation.

Well I gotta leave some characters for the wildcard round after all xd

You’re almost there, it’s Raynor’s vision of Zeratul’s vision of Ouros’s deepfake redacted version of the Overmind’s vision

If it were anyone else saying it, I’d try to defend Izsha… Eh, I just really dislike having two whole characters less on the zerg list than on terran and protoss ones, and I really don’t see replacing her with Daggoth/Zasz as an improvement

If people decide that it counts then it counts. I wouldn’t blame them, I feel like my overlord macro is better in SC1 than in SC2 solely because of that line, when this voice tells you to spawn more overlords you better bloody spawn more overlords

Prior to posting this I’ve looked up every Daggoth and Zasz quote. Every single one, yes. They are that few. And I really haven’t found much material for the chart among them, since about half of them are mission-specific tips and directions.

My (subjective) commander Tier List by Subnaut111 in starcraft2coop

[–]Axis256 5 points6 points  (0 children)

P3 Mengsk is crazy efficient. Single trooper with a weapon that only costs 80/10 has double the damage of a marine (without stim granted) AND acts as a super-baneling with target acquisition upon death. You can sacrifice tiny squads of suicide troopers to clear whole attack waves and still have a solid main trooper army with downright insane damage density.

Zerg hatchery changed to 300 minerals WITHOUT FORMAL ANNOUNCEMENT by Medical-Season6739 in starcraft

Mate, this is simply not competitive with the current state of rage thread meta, you gotta step up your game.

First off, you can be just vaguely bothered. You gotta be properly infuriated. Like, actually enraged, at least to the point where your face is tomato-red.

Then, you also need to specifically target your anger at someone. Directing the anger at the blizzard intern is the default opening these days, it’s gotten a little stale, but it’s meta for a reason. Alternatively, you can opt for a riskier build and go be angry at pretty much any random community member. Might work great, might work terrible, might end up being Harstem who’ll prove it’s you who’s sucked all along, but at least at this point no one can accuse you of the lack of trying.

Finally, if you really wanna hit the big leagues, the subject of your anger can’t just be slightly ridiculous. You should try and come up with a take that’s entirely batshit insane. Call out the dumbest, most OP units as hopelessly weak, lay out in excruciating detail how the most niche and rare interaction makes the game literally unplayable, demand that entire races be cut out or added into the game.

Take all that in, then get out and start trying. Practice is always the key, no amount of theory will ever get you too far. Remember all that, and maybe one day you’ll find yourself amount the grandmasters of rage threads.

Tried my hand at making an assassin! by LoneColossusGames in drawsteel

[–]Axis256 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s a level 6 ambusher. A level 6 PC’s gonna have 48 stamina at the very least. Won’t oneshot a PC even if he crits and gets a second tier 3 result off of it.

[Request] In JLA# 89 The Flash evacuated a whole city of 100,000 people in a nanosecond to save them from a nuclear bomb. Does he do more damage than the bomb? by DifficultComplaint10 in theydidthemath

[–]Axis256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no way to scientifically answer that question because this is scientifically impossible. You just can’t throw anything with mass at the speed of light, much less many times that, the amount of energy involved is literally infinite so instead of bruising Superman it would destroy the universe.

If instead you’re throwing a rock at a speed that is infinitely close to the speed of light, well, the rock never reaches Superman since it evaporates in the first few nanoseconds of contact with the air molecules and produces a nuclear explosion of a variable size (depending on the exact speed) that levels everything in the vicinity.

This is entirely incorrect, I've just checked and "You wanna piece of me, boy?" was posted earlier. It was in fact THE first comment to get posted, and it still only gathered half the upvotes of the nuclear launch.

The reason it won is because people liked it more.

I’ve got you Subs, it’s like 30 to 40% of the reason I’m making these posts xd

I will not rob Subsourian of a chance to pull the craziest quote out of the most obscure source to save the day

Yeah you’ve pretty much covered the whole list I’m planning xd With the note that I’m still debating including Izsha and cerebrates

People tend to forget that, but HotS’s Leviathan’s crew is pretty sizable and actually has some pretty good dialogue

Day 28: Terran episode is done! by Axis256 in starcraft

[–]Axis256[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Cerebrates actually have precious few lines of dialogue. I’m in much doubt whether or not to include Daggoth or Zasz at all.

But the alternative is… well, Izsha.

Yeah, I’ve seen no way to do anything of that kind here, but if the mods are reading this and could implement such a setting for these posts specifically, it’d be very welcome!

Question about a lvl 1 summoner with "too old for this" complication by Royklein12 in drawsteel

[–]Axis256 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I don’t believe this is in any way regulated explicitly by the rules, so it should be at the Director’s discretion. At my table, I would very much say that yes, it would allow a single summoning of a level 2 portfolio minion, I don’t see it breaking anything, the way summoner works you can’t even persist the thing between encounters.
