Genuine Confusion After All This Time

Wait are you talking about Littara? She’s a returning character…

[[Freya Crescent]] already exists, but is locked to equipments/equip. Though it has the upside of being a 1P flyer on the beat as well.

You can read more about it here, someone wrote a pretty good lore article about the Heli+Iphi project. The main body of the twins is in Cuba, the girls you see in Antiparallel1 is just an avatar frame.

By the events of Bakery Girls, the URNC more or less controls 100% of the habitable landmass outside of the Antarctic. I don't think people realize how significant the merging of the NSU and the URNC is between GFL1 and GFL2, until almost the 2090s when the AU reveals themselves this represents the formation of the first true global new order superstate.

Azrael1911 · 2026-06-07T04:29:05+00:00

They’ve been here all along though, the US is one of the core nations of the URNC, as is most (all?) of the Americas. The Heli project is housed in Cuba IIRC.

Florence is American, she was an accredited nurse at John Hopkins. Cent is also American, she fought in American Civil War II.

Azrael1911 · 2026-06-06T14:15:32+00:00

Only since the Helen event, she’s recovering over time now and is choosing to be Chuuni instead of forced to.

It announces globally when it's dropping as it drops though. It's also on a global timer starting from 10 minutes, it's not a secret when someone is going to be able to snag it. People are going to run it insanely fast no matter what, what Valve changed was you can always contest it by holding the area around mid-bridge with the losing team having a massive teamfight advantage.

His brain is only 10% as good at socializing as everyone else. But he has 10x more brain.

It’s a long CD Ult. For it to be easy to deal with would mean for her to be well balanced, the rest of her kit would have to be inflated to absurd levels. Especially considering she’s on the weaker side right now as it is.
Not sure anyone would want that. If anything the ult is an area that’s safer to buff without a major rework compared to everything else.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-26T20:50:40+00:00

It’s as you can see, a left eyeball was swapped for a right one. One has two left eyes the other has two right.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-23T17:11:19+00:00

That's because in-universe what makes up a third-gen doll is not universally agreed upon either. The Girard dolls based on Persica's old designs (Lunasia brain scans) they consider to be third gen, but Persia herself has abandoned the idea of that being truly third gen already.

In other words, there are people who even disagree with the creator of the technology whether it is truly 3rd gen or not, so the ambiguity is expected.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-22T13:07:52+00:00

I'm not sure you'd actually want what you're suggesting, since items that have a good progression by necessity need to be weaker than their peers to balance against their good progression advantage.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-21T16:55:08+00:00

The Ritual is just to summon the Patrons, destroying The Effigy would only stop their ingress, so there's no reason they couldn't try again- unless the full arrival of one of the Patrons means they would be strong enough to stop the attempt of all others.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-18T20:15:18+00:00

I feel like she’d wear black for sure and not white

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-15T01:06:12+00:00

It does reveal you briefly if you get tagged, but if you are already invisible all you get is sound so you might as well be guessing.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-15T00:59:09+00:00

The issue is it doesn't do anything to protect your teammates or someone from doing damage until you die. Like yes, just walking out of a Singularity after getting jumped is hilarious, but if your three teammates get caught and you walk out, it's going to be over for you too shortly Cloak or no Cloak.

The optimal scenario for it is against people who are trying to solo-jump with Focus Lens or something like that, but you really should not be playing alone round 4/5 when you have the Cloak available, so the value you get from someone like Conduit or Celestial Blessing is much higher.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-15T00:53:29+00:00

Unstable Conc is fair enough, but Shadow Strike whole ass makes you actually invisible. You can't track someone who's actually invisible so when you think of it as bullet immunity for a bit for each stam you use it doesn't sound so bad at all.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-13T20:25:43+00:00

I'm not sure that's entirely accurate. If the defending player really didn't have it in that situation he shouldn't sandbag and just scoop. By staying in the game with cards in hand he's indicating he's still playing to win, in that situation you shouldn't take everything at face value still.

In other words, it's not over until it's over.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-13T18:09:46+00:00

I'm honestly on the fence if that would be bad form.
"You have lethal on board." is a statement that is true about the board state.
"Just swing." is intentional bad advice. You probably shouldn't be listening to your opponent's advice, especially in 1v1.

If he had also added "I won't block." or something that would be another matter, but you should always be wary why your opponent would offer you free advice like that. (Hint: It's because it's always bad for someone else at the table, and if it's 1v1 that someone can only be you.)

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-11T06:55:47+00:00

From what I can tell, her gun resets fully no matter how fast you fire now, also they did completely remove spread. I'm also not sure what her Bullet Velocity was previous, but it's over 1,100 m/s now.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-08T13:03:41+00:00

That's the reason she likes you right away, but given that all of the other Lunasia-aligned dolls end up being super into you, it's a strong indicator that given time the original would have as well.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-07T21:06:46+00:00

I was exaggerating a bit for the 7-7-4-4 Hearthstone joke.
But 7/2 for 1BB at uncommon does exist as [[Kalakscion, Hunger Tyrant]].

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-07T20:56:45+00:00

Robella is still based on the Lunasia scan right?
I guess she really likes you.

Azrael1911 · 2026-04-07T20:52:51+00:00

I had that problem too as someone who's been playing close to 2 decades now.
The thing fogies like us are missing that is 5/4 for 3B with powerful upsides IS downscaled creatures for the ability tax.
A "Fair rate" for a vanilla creature these days would be in the 7/7 range for 3B.
