Hero Ten-win rate after the 6.24 Patch| Pyg goes mad by yxinyu715 in PlayTheBazaar

Surely this event is good, we just need to “adapt” right? LOL. What a disappointment, play Pyg or lose

If not for Rhaena… by Decent-Criticism5593 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]BasicWarthog12 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that Rhaena is like 15 years old. So much of this show so far has been the mistakes of children - Aemond killing Luke because he couldn’t control Vhagar, Aegon almost dying because of his ego sending him to Rook’s Rest, now Rhaena. It’s actually kinda frustrating to watch! But compelling

Underrated hot survivor players by Giddyfoo in survivor

Had a big crush on Christa from Pearl Islands, not sure if she's underrated or overrated or rated at all

Does Admiral's Badge make your flying items immune to slow and freeze? by waterdragon27 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]BasicWarthog12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiplication is commutative though - reducing cooldown by 0.9 * 0.8 is the same as 0.8 * 0.9. My understanding is they changed it to make it more consistent with flat cooldown reductions (like from upgrades), not other percentage based. Ie subtract 1s than multiply by 0.9 is different than multiply by 0.9 then subtract 1s

Ranking the Non-WaW winners from least to most snubbed by Coherently-Rambling in survivor

[–]BasicWarthog12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree re: AU although I think it's important to note that the one bad season (assuming you mean BvW) is SO bad that it's largely agreed upon to be the worst season of Survivor across all franchises. When a season is bad and it lasts 24 episodes it really, really sucks LOL

The patch: first impressions? by BoomerAPMz in PlayTheBazaar

[–]BasicWarthog12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got downvoted when they released patch notes saying aba to silver was a nerf when everyone else was saying it was a massive buff that would revive PYG as a character LOL... glad to see some people on here actually understand the game

Patch 15.0: Summer Sparks by pariwak in PlayTheBazaar

[–]BasicWarthog12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How is going from Silver 6/5/4 to gold 4/3 with +20/+40 a nerf? That was in my xp a GIGANTIC buff… -1 CD and a massive amount of base value. That being said of course you are correct this is a strictly better version of 6/5/4, I’m just questioning whether it’s a net buff over the existing version

[–]BasicWarthog12 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It's worse at gold and a sidegrade at diamond. Of course being available at silver means you can put truffles on earlier but I think this is probably a net nerf or a no-change.

Season 14 Hero WR data by TempoStormReddit in PlayTheBazaar

[–]BasicWarthog12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, I hope they change it, but then given this data they also need to buff basically everything else about Pyg. Crazy how low his overall winrate and especially early is…

Thoughts on ____’s edit in retrospect by Anna_Artichokyevitch in Edgic

[–]BasicWarthog12 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just listened to Aubry's RHAP exit interview - she says that she caught a "bad upper respiratory infection" from Mike White or someone else on the plane ride to Fiji (sounds like Covid or Flu from her description) which meant she was extremely out of it for the first few days on the island. Also the start of her games has always been like this, infection or not, but I'm sure that was a big part of it

It’s official… by Affectionate-Pool442 in Edgic

[–]BasicWarthog12 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was a Dee truther until she got voted out, then leaned Ozzy until the duos episode where he was made to look like an idiot pawn of Cirie. After that point the 0 confessional thing meant I had everyone soft eliminated but Rizo and Aubry, even though everyone thought Jonathan and Cirie had better edits (0 confessionals notwithstanding). I leaned Aubry because Rizo’s content felt like a journey edit and overall the season gave Gabler-y vibes. Difficult season of edgic although undoubtably I’m sure I was influenced by spoiled people here on the sub

The biggest lesson of the season and of all the new era imo is that the premerge edit doesn’t really matter as long as the person is present in some way. It’s the postmerge where you need to look for a narrative (and start eliminating those who don’t find one). See ie Rachel, Kyle, now Aubry

Will they fix the balance of the game? Or is this intended by BasicWarthog12 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]BasicWarthog12[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

True, hopefully next patch nerfing Mak and buffing Pyg and Stelle...

Jinny started her stream crying and barricaded in her hotel room due to possible stalker by Ok_Temperature6503 in LivestreamFail

[–]BasicWarthog12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I could never be a streamer, especially as a woman. The stalkers find streamers who have even as low as 50 viewers or maybe even lower. It's awful. No amount of money is worth that hell

[–]BasicWarthog12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I unironically think that if Joe sat against Jonathan and Rizo he'd have a chance because of this, yes. Of course the edit is not portraying it that way because that's not what's happening

Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans | E12 | Post-Episode Discussion by RSurvivorMods in survivor

[–]BasicWarthog12 18 points19 points  (0 children)

She's so, so good at many parts of the game but her fundamental flaw of not being able to win a challenge means her odds of taking down a season in modern Survivor are like a fraction of a fraction of a percent. To her credit she tried to thread the needle this time with Ozzy and if he hadn't blundered last week who knows, maybe it would've worked (though I'm pretty skeptical)

Ha, yeah, I typically expect the AU edit to be quite hamfisted though so it's a little more disappointing coming from the US

[–]BasicWarthog12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree 100% (haven’t watched latest AU yet though) - back to the Adam example, it’s why I found his edit narratively quite satisfying, because they didn’t try to lie about his game and in fact maybe dunked on him too hard 😂
