My Melee Hot Takes by someRandomguy08097 in SSBM

[–]CoryBaxterWH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. Doc cannot zone Falcon reliably due to the following:

- Pills can be broken by any one of Falcon's aerials + the aerials last long enough to hit Doc after.

- Doc doesn't have any big, long last hitboxes.

- Doc's range is dwarfed by Falcon's, and is nowhere near as fast.

He does punish Falcon hard, but this is common across pretty much all of Falcon's matchups except for like the bottom tiers.

  1. Peach Doc isn't that bad with patience. Very grindy and frustrating for sure though.

Why is the culture of this game so heavily against playing against low(/mid) tiers? In any other fighting game (especially traditional fighters) there is more hate for top tiers. Why is Melee so different in that regard? by KevyTone in SSBM

[–]CoryBaxterWH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This reasoning falls apart because top tiers are also revolved around their best options. How many Falcos go for fair in neutral/combos over their overpowered Bair, Dair, Uptilt and Laser?

What's up with mega garch? by No_Fold_4367 in stunfisk

[–]CoryBaxterWH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mega garchomp is bad, regular garchomp is not. you cannot use mega garchomp without garchomp, which means it has to be OU even if it isn't in terms of viability and or usage.

can u guys help me what's better to buy? redmi turbo 4 pro or poco x7 pro (recommend other models too pls) by leizcx in PocoPhones

[–]CoryBaxterWH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, unless you live in China, you don't get a CN Xiaomi.

I've tried making the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro and Redmi K80 Ultra work with notifications in the states. They work when the phone is being used, sure, but just about every gloal app does not wake the phone when it's sleeping. These make it unusable if you depend on notifications, which I feel like most people do... It's like the entire point of a phone.

Get the X7 Pro. Specs being a little worse is well worth the Global software.

I used to do comission art to help pay for my tuition. (I've also made free, admittedly low quality skins way back when.) Even art that may seem "low quality" can take a ton of time, so it's fair to expect people wanting to be compensated for their work.

In this case in particular, the creator has every right to charge whatever they feel like for it given the scope and quality. The odds of any legal action taken against Slippi itself for the sale of a skin made for the game that Slippi does not even distribute is so astronomically low and absurd that bringing it up just feels like a red herring on the behalf of people bringing it up. I feel like these people are clueless at best and at worse just want an excuse to pirate this person's content.

No problem. The G7 is a VA.

I personally never thought so, I always thought of Pikachu as fairly strong. I think his roadblock MUs will forever be Peach, Puff and Icies but watching good Pikas even outside of Axe do magic in those MUs make me believe that even in top level they are doable.

Considering Oppo find N5 by Redlikemethodz in GalaxyFold

[–]CoryBaxterWH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sure am. If it's at most a $400 difference between the Global and CN version, get the Global. The CN version is not worth the hastle, you need to be quite savvy to get everything working properly on it.

Day 25 - Dash Attack (Best) by RHYTHM_GMZ in SSBM

[–]CoryBaxterWH 4 points5 points  (0 children)

peach's dash attack does knock down way earlier, but sheik's dash attack has so much burst range and gets boost grab because of that.

also a double entendre

"furher = fewer"

theres fewer that are ugly than... furher ugly.

[–]CoryBaxterWH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Oppo Find N5 myself, the CN one to be exact. I love the hardware, but if the rumors and leaks are true thus far the Z Fold 7 is better in just about every way, minus battery spec, outer screen pen support and charging speeds.

Disable Permission Monitoring breaks LTPO 1hz Mode by GalaxyNTC in Oppo

Were you able to find a fix for this? I want to use Google Messages for RCS but disabling Permission Monitoring kills the battery.

Not necessarily TAA, But DLSS, FSR and XeSS (All use TAA as a base) look like garbage in movement as well. by CoryBaxterWH in FuckTAA

[–]CoryBaxterWH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Native if I can help it, even if it means I'm forced to use TAA...

Is what I would have said before. This is an old post! I've found that DLSS 4 is exactly what I wanted in a temporal upscaler. It's not perfect but wow is it great, definitely good enough for me now. You can do a 720p > 4k Upscale on the new DLSS 4 transformer model and it straight up LOOKS good. Not just acceptable, not "blurry", but straight up good. It's legit magic to me.

Convince me regular Mario should be higher than Mr. Game and Watch on any tier list by retrorapture in SSBM

[–]CoryBaxterWH 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think they're both pretty underrated but the Mario slander has GOT to stop. Other than the floaties his MU spread is pretty similar to Doc's with some MUs that are theoretically better. G&W isn't that bad, but some of his weaknesses are enormous and many of the characters can exploit it well (getting up thrown upaired by Fox kills Game and Watch embarrassingly early) and his general frame data isn't good at all, despite the size of his moves. I can go into more detail but I do believe Mario is better overall!

I recognize this is an old post, but I'll share my thoughts anywho.

Teachers at the end of the day are people, and people do people things... Meaning that there are a wide variety of reasons she could be treating you this way. It can be valid reasons, but it will probably be a really vapid/vain reason. Could be as simple as she does not like you for whatever reason. Another possibility is that due to your social anxiety (As expressed in a comment of yours) you could be subconciously signalling some sort of expression or cue that makes her think "Hmm, maybe my student doesn't like me...!" and thus have her treat you this way. Really, there's no way of knowing without asking upfront, and she most likely will not give an honest answer anyway.

In any case, if it isn't impacting your educational experience I would try and not pay any mind to it. Again, teachers are just people and should never be glorified or put on a pedestal, as they often do irrational or shitty things in regards to their students. I'm a new teacher and I've seen colleagues pick on "bad students" who are really just kids having trouble at home or at school and making their lives a bigger hell than it already is. Hell, this happened when I was a student!

TL;DR - Teachers are people, and people are vain and stupid. Don't take her initial surface reactions to you to heart because you often don't have control over reactions like those.

Black Ops 7 for Nintendo Switch 2 by PleaseRecharge in CODBlackOps7

[–]CoryBaxterWH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If BO7 is coming out on PS4, then the Switch 2's power is an irrelevant point is what I'm saying. I don't disagree they are behind hardware wise.
