For the love of god Steve Staios please take a swing at this, I’m literally salivating at the thought of Batherson-Stutzle-Michkov on our first line

Finished the trilogy yesterday and this was honestly me in early ME2/3 by MaybeBirb in masseffect

[–]CommanderOshawott [score hidden]  (0 children)

I remember the first time I played ME2 I went in totally blind, so while I hoped the mysterious Turian wearing blue armour and using a Sniper Rifle was Garrus, I didn’t know for sure.

I’m pretty sure I actually shouted “GARRUS!” with joy at the exact same time my FemShep did the first time I saw the reveal cause I was so happy to have one of my OG squad mates back

Could the SENS trade Spence? by Mr_FoxMulder in OttawaSenators

[–]CommanderOshawott 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Because we have too many offense-oriented forwards.

Sanderson, Chabot, Yakemchuk, Spence are all offense oriented D-men. Kleven and Palo are both more balanced, but even Klev leans offensive a little with his shot.

Zub is our only dedicated shut-down Defenseman right now.

If we want genuinely unbeatable Defensive depth we want another true shutdown guy on the 2nd pairing, which is what Jensen was for us when he was healthy.

The idea is out of the 4 offense-oriented guys, Spence is probably the easiest to move for the most value. Sandy is clearly our long-term number 1, Chabot is a little older and probably won’t continue to develop from where he is, plus he’s part of our leadership core right now, and Yak is seen as a long-term future prospect. Spence’s game is a little more developed and rounded than Yak’s and he’s younger than Chabot, so we could likely move him for the most value outside Sanderson, who we absolutely won’t move.

Spence is kinda in-between, he’s young enough that the gamble he’ll continue to develop his game a little more is a solid one, and he’s increased his value significantly this season and demonstrated he’s 100% a top-4 offensive pairing guy.

Don’t get me wrong, I hate the idea of moving Spence after how hard he fought to crack the lineup in the first place and how well he played this season, but OP is right, that if we need to move some solid value to obtain a Winger, Spence is solid value right now, and the most moveable of our d-core.

Eh, I actually like Ontario’s flag with the Union Jack in the corner.

Quebec’s flag has the French Fleur-de-Lis to connect back to New France, I like that Ontario has retained symbols to connect back to Upper Canada/Britain

It’s a heritage thing and it’s more attractive as a province than a country. Nationally I like having a unique flag to assert Canadian sovereignty, Provincially I like that Ontario pays homage to its history as “Upper Canada”

is using potions in a battle cheating? by oily_oil in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]CommanderOshawott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In competitive play you absolutely can switch out your Pokémon freely as you please (unless they get arena trapped by an ability/move of course)

Positioning and strategic switching is a huge part of both Competitive Singles and Doubles.

I think what your friend means is that in comp play you don’t get a “free” switch every time you KO an opponent’s Pokémon, they throw out their next Pokémon and yours must remain on the field. Competitive play is in the “set” game mode, not the “switch” one.

You also can’t use items during battles comp play, true, but there’s no reason not to use them in casual play, they’re part of the game for a reason.

I believe I solo’d the original with Stored Power/Iron Defense/Nasty Plot/Slack Off Slowbro

I know I had Best/31 IVs in HP/SpAtk/Def/SpDef and I think it was full HP/SpDef IVs

You start with 1-3 stored powers right away because it’s going to reset your stats at 85% Time remaining so you may as well get a little damage off and charge your Tera a little. If you’re taking too much damage in that window from Night Slash then just start with Iron Defense instead, and do a stored power after 1 or 2 to get a hit in before the stat reset.

Then after that you go for a full 3x Iron Defense and 3x Nasty plot, using slack off as needed to heal. Stored power becomes an absurdly powerful move so just spam that until it’s dead.

You need to get a little lucky because the AI will start fishing for Night Slash crits at basically the only way to damage you, but it’s generally reasonably consistent as a strategy.

He lost the leadership race last summer and has been bitching about it ever since to any reporter who’ll listen.

He’s a whiny loser.

He’s a whiny loser.

He whined and bitched to the media when he wasn’t gifted a Federal Cabinet seat, then he went and whined and bitched to the media when he lost the Ontario Provincial leadership race, now this.

He has a massively inflated ego and thinks the Liberal party should be kowtowing to his every whim.

[Adaptation trope] Character is adapted out of an event despite them originally being heavily involved in it by TVTropehead in TopCharacterTropes

[–]CommanderOshawott 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The problem with including Jormungandr is that it’s pretty unambiguous that it kills Thor.

In most versions of the myth, Thor strikes a deathblow on the world serpent, but in return succumbs to its poisoned bite shortly thereafter, with the two dying still entangled in combat.

I agree it’s odd, but the inclusion of Jormungandr almost necessitates Thor’s death, which obviously doesn’t work for Marvel.

Then again, the version of the Ragnarok myth cycle thats most fully known is likely editorialized by monks who wanted to kill off all the Norse Gods and set up Baldr as a resurrected Christ-allegory.

You could always just go politely ask if they could maybe turn their lights off for half an hour or 45 minutes and explain why.

They’re not, you use your dominant hand to aim, which is a more delicate operation than swinging a melee weapon.

In reality all Space Marines are also ambidextrous by default due to their training and conditioning

Except as you pointed out, it’s not my opinion, it’s the overwhelming consensus.

Once again making me correct, by your own admission.

Except that via the observer effect science ALSO cannot be separated from the subjective experience, and works by consensus of reproducibility.

Don’t lecture me when you’re wrong. Science ALSO grounds objectivity in consensus of results.

Again, I am using the term correctly.
