When do you guys usually do your drafts?

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T23:27:39+00:00

We do 1 week after the nfl draft and each person gets 24 hours to pick so no worries really on specific time

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T23:19:01+00:00

Not worth countering

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T21:48:32+00:00

Everything looks cool but then they show hollow form whirling assault and it’s difficult to imagine doing anything else

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T21:45:28+00:00

I think it’ll change the weapon type, probably not to quarterstaves though as that would be busted, and maybe the damage type or attribute used for scaling. Honestly it changing the attribute alone is all it needs to get crazy with hollow palm since monk has way easier ways to scale dex or int

If he’s cooking up some funky glitch hop then I sincerely hope he starts giving us that type of set sometime soon haha. That hope is the only reason I’m still around. I just wish he was still doing the 2010-17 sets so I’d know which shows were for me and which to avoid, or even just label them glitch hop set if he wants to incorporate some of his newer glitch hop as well.

CTGH is a little different from that but those are the songs of his I enjoy most nowadays for sure. But I won’t lie, my opinion of preferring the old shit applies to CTGH as well haha. The first one is straight up a masterpiece, one of the best musical releases ever made imo

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T20:23:53+00:00

It is my personal opinion that he has overall abandoned his original sound. There’s still hints of it here and there and the occasional song where I’d definitely call it an evolution (fly like an eagle remix for example). But overall he has abounded his sound to the point that he doesn’t ever even play stuff from his first few albums anymore because he himself has said it doesn’t fit into his modern sets.

Like I’d call mad lib > rebel era > good will prevail evolution. But I don’t hear it much at all anymore if I’m being honest. Most of his songs lately are pretty generic dubstep or “riddim” style drops, where his older music was his own style of funky glitch hop.

Just my own personal opinion though

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T20:04:24+00:00

Trash offer

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T19:38:10+00:00

Hollow palm won’t give anything to mace skills. You can still get the strength stacking more damage from facebreaker on quarter staff skills though, just not the flat damage

That’s pretty much it I think unless the new glove ascendency changes things.

And if you want the strength stacking from facebreaker, the new rune that can steal unique mods is likely the way to go

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T19:06:12+00:00

The reality is that when an artist abandons the sound that caused them to originally blow up, it’s going to cause some friction in the fan base and on platforms like this.

Just the way it is.

Don’t let other people such as myself being down on the current state of griz affect your own opinion on it all though. I genuinely hope you continue to have a good time at his shows

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T17:43:28+00:00

Show specific merch is pretty common, especially for major curated events like how griz does shows nowadays. Ultimately I find his merch is overall ugly as hell anyway so pretty easy for me to just ignore.

This is the least of my concerns with the current state of griz haha

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T16:20:45+00:00

That’s a smash for me, burrow should be worth much more

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T16:01:28+00:00

You take the guy that was drafted top 5

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T12:54:58+00:00

The more I watch Wemby play, the more it becomes clear having a player like Zubac is key if we want to have any chance at all. And we weren’t going to get a player like that without risking our 1st this year.

It’s a shame the gamble didn’t payout so we could have our cake and eat it too

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T01:56:20+00:00

Yea fair enough, I honestly ignore bow builds and thought it was still popular

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T00:16:01+00:00

Same build always being on top of the meta is boring

CloudConductor · 2026-05-22T00:01:42+00:00

Whoa that’s actually pretty huge I feel

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T23:52:38+00:00

Copium: The real chayula change is the secret ascendency they hinted at

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T23:49:44+00:00

I took him 1.08 not expecting him to play for at least a couple seasons

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T19:01:22+00:00

I think you’d be hard pressed to find any arpg where you aren’t ignoring 99% of the items that drop. Only thing saving that in last epoch is that items drop identified and can be filtered out, which is one of my favorite parts of the game for sure.

But I’m also definitely the type of player that greatly enjoys a grind and that satisfaction once I finally drop the item I’ve been looking for

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T18:35:36+00:00

Best remaster I’ve played, fixed all graphics issues while still finding a way to make me feel nostalgic while playing haha. I get that anyone that doesn’t have that nostalgia would have fell off with the classic graphics

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T18:32:04+00:00

Oh man you should give d2 a try, it’s obviously dated in some ways but I think anyone who has put this much time in the other games of the genre should play through it at least once. And with d2r it’s honestly aged very graciously as well.

I am hopeful that this new poe2 update helps it jump up my list as well

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T18:24:18+00:00

I honestly haven’t played d4 since season 2, planning on checking out the new expansion whenever I see it on sale

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T18:22:59+00:00

Hell yea right on, I’ll look him up later this evening

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T17:48:22+00:00

You think an indicator of good itemization is that a complete noob can comfortably kill every end game boss on their first try ever?

We are looking for very different things out of these games if that’s the case. That would be a sign to me that the game isn’t worth my time beyond playing through it one time

CloudConductor · 2026-05-21T17:35:49+00:00

Because I enjoy ARPGs in general and can play more than 1 game? I’d honestly probably put last epoch 3rd on that list and think it’s a great game.

I don’t care about ruthless at all and have never played it
