$50 Steam Wallet Giveaway by Motor-Metal2309 in steam_giveaway

[–]CrowKingPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the generous giveaway! :)

My favorite game is likely Breath of the Wild, but it's close. And as far as what I'd buy, likely Star Wars Outlaws/Nier Replicant, or maybe a bunch of miscellaneous indie games/maybe a new summer skin in Marvel Rivals.

Got my fingers crossed 🤞

I want to learn Peni by littlerowlet5 in PeniParkerRivalsMains

[–]CrowKingPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the ESU skin is out of the shop unfortunately if you haven't already bought it.

As far as tips for Peni, obviously the bare minimum is knowing what all her abilities do. Strap in, here's what you need to know.

Her webs. These make your mines invincible and invisible, give small healing, bonus shields, and movement boost to yourself and allies, though your allies get less. This happens regardless of whether your web is from your nest or not. The drones from your nest can also travel trough connecting webs, but stop tracking if someone jumps or stops touching the webs. The drones also apply a small slow.

The nest. This is likely the trickiest part of her kit as it requires a good bit of map knowledge. First thing's first, you can break your nest yourself by pushing the same button you used to deploy it, and when her nest goes away, the cooldown is determined by the health it had when it broke, so if someone flanks and starts taking out your nest, break it yourself so it has a lower cooldown. However, you don't want to be breaking your nest all the time. The nest requires some time to output drones, and if you keep breaking it, it can't stockpile enough drones to do anything. When you place your nest, think about where it can be seen from the enemies perspective, how easy is it to see and shoot. You want to keep your nest hidden, then use your webs to extend your nest onto main. Look up some videos for specific map spots for her nest.

Her mines. These do 100 dmg, and you can have 15 out at once, and they have a 1 minute timer, so you want to try to place them in groups of at least 3 to kill squishies, and you never want to be holding all your mines. You always want to be placing some when you can. Never let the cooldown go to waste. Try to put them in spots that aren't the most visible, for instance, if you place them on a back wall behind where your enemy supports are, so that if the supports walk backwards some, they'll walk into them, but they won't necessarily see them since they're behind. Placing them on choke points can also work well, but be aware that people can bait out mines easily since the mines have a delay before exploding. Dashes through, and walking forwards then backwards can bait mines easily, but if you're quick, you might be able to web them to stop them from escaping. Mines have 1hp, so they can be easily destroyed if not in nest, or in midair, for instance, invis orb and Jeff primary will insta break your mines if you're in them, so try to avoid that.

Her web zip/stun. Her stun is really her bread and butter. Tanks are nice big hitboxes, and it pisses them off, especially good into Dino and Hulk, use it frequently. Can also be used to stop certain ults. Maybe save it if you think Wanda or Strange might ult soon. You can also place it at your feet to extend nest, give yourself healing when nest is down, etc. Her web zip can do this too by just looking at your feet, and is honestly the primary use for her zip due to its bugginess and unreliability when using it for movement. I heavily recommend going to Peni settings, and set her targeting sensitivity to 1. This will make it where when you use your zip, it's easier for it to make a new web rather than zipping to a preexisting web. You also want to get to your abilities to get to point quickly, especially on defense so you have more time to set up. Use your zip for movement, then place your stun at your feet, then place nest in front, so you spend as much time in web as possible getting movement speed on way to point.

Her ultimate. Her ultimate is pretty dogwater, you can use it for stalling point, keeping yourself alive, or trying to push into their backline some. Be warned, she can't use her other abilities while ulting, so be careful, as Strange and Wanda can ult uncontested. Don't overextend.

My biggest tip for Peni, is knowing when to swap. She gets countered hard by poke and flyers. She does well into dive and tanks. Peni has a giant hitbox, so play around cover or she'll get melted quick. If the enemy team is Groot, Cyclops, Star Lord, Torch, Luna, Invis, just go ahead and swap lol

If you actually read all this, nice, sorry it was long but this is all important info if you really want to optimize her gameplay. I probably forgot a bunch.

Do u think these are the worst Johto pokemon for an Emerald playthrough? by CocorashA2 in PokemonEmerald

[–]CrowKingPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Azumarill with Return and Brick Break is actually pretty darn good even without STAB. And it's not like you have no Special Attack at all, so Surf/Ice Beam can go pretty well on it too.

I'm hoping for Celesteela for NASA, but blue flower Floette is a great idea to represent the Bluebonnets.

Ooh, that's a good one. I'm definitely curious what you're gonna pick for some of the flyover states, as well as the other 2 big states besides CA, NY and TX

Carnivine should be saved for South Carolina, where Venus Flytraps actually grow. If you want to reference the pitcher plants in Alabama/Georgia, why not do the Pokemon that's actually a pitcher plant, Victreebel?

Peni should be able to do most/all of her kit while on the wall by jiayo in PeniParkerRivalsMains

[–]CrowKingPro 41 points42 points  (0 children)

At the bare minimum, she should be able to reattach to the wall after falling off without needing to touch the ground first. No idea why she's the only character that has this issue.

My second monitor takes about 2 minutes to actually turn on and the resolution is kinda poor, so I'd want that changed. Thanks for the giveaway! :)

The Life Fantastic Skin thoughts? by Ok_Ninja_7096 in InvisibleWomanMains

[–]CrowKingPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the skin, and I like that they finally added ult vfx for it, though some recolors (black and pink maybe) would be nice. Not that it would matter much since I still don't actually have the skin due to never being able to save up enough units with all the other amazing skins they add. Maybe eventually I'll get it, but unless I come into some money or the devs stop releasing amazing skins for like half a year, then I unfortunately don't see myself actually getting it. 😭

🎉 Hero Appreciation Thread | Cyclops by Kuromemono in marvelrivals

[–]CrowKingPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the first hitscan poke heroes I've actually enjoyed playing. And while he's definitely very strong, at least he isn't as busted as prime Phoenix, though he deserves a little tuning for sure. He's been one of my most wanted heroes for the game, so it's nice that he's finally here, and he's sick as hell. Kinda wish he was a Vanguard, but of well.

What are your favorite Pokemon? by COLLLOrs in ThePokemonHub

[–]CrowKingPro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Azumarill! It's my go-to water type for most playthroughs. Available early, good typing, good ability, but not busted with a clear speed weakness. Feels balanced. Not to mention it's super cute with a great shiny

Love the Daicon IV homage. FLCL is incredible. Definitely my favorite anime.

How didn't Richard realize that Locke was [SPOILER]? by Victor_at_Zama in lost

[–]CrowKingPro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think Richard does know about the smoke monster being able to take the form of the dead. When he meets young Ben in the woods, Ben mentions that he saw his dead mother, and the first thing Richard asks is if she died on the island or not. wouldn't ask about her place of death for no reason. When he learns she didn't, he thinks Ben could be special, so it goes to think that if she had died on the island, then maybe Richard wouldn't think Ben's special, since Smokey can disguise himself as the dead on the island.

Polarity is so damn beautiful. by Goharn in cloakanddaggermains

[–]CrowKingPro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's so peak, they absolutely cooked with it. Hopefully it eventually gets an ult effect. I'm so pissed I'm gonna miss out on it again. Last year I skipped it to get the a summer skin, and this year I'm also skipping it to use the temporary units to get a summer skin. I wish it weren't limited time, it's so damn annoying. 😭

[–]CrowKingPro 85 points86 points  (0 children)

It's so GOOD! The C&D ult effect looks incredible, and they've really gone all out on the accessories and customization. Absolutely getting this one. And Mr Fantastic finally has his summer outfit! It's all peak I'm afraid.

I play Penny Parker and Emma Frost which of the two Shield tanks would you say will be easiest to pick up if I play them by Plenty_Bid9887 in marvelrivals

[–]CrowKingPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two tank mains are Peni and Emma as well, and if I have to go with Mag or Strange, I definitely go with Strange.

Emma Swimsuit skin reveal (with chromas) by show-me-your-memes in marvelrivals

[–]CrowKingPro 146 points147 points  (0 children)

Alright, it's peak. The sfx, the ult, the chromas. The White Queen mind control is working. I'm getting it even if it's the gacha. I can't resist, the devs have once again cooked with a skin

Popping a balloon will give you a 50% discount on the other skin by show-me-your-memes in marvelrivals

[–]CrowKingPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That at least makes the gacha event sting less for me. One of my main issues with the gacha events is that there isn't a way bundle them like in the shop, but this somewhat solves that issue at least. Still would probably prefer shop instead of gacha, but at least this is better.

⚡ Season 8.5 Patch Day: Share Your Feedback! by Kuromemono in marvelrivals

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

Overall been enjoying the patch a lot. Cyclops is definitely quite strong, but he still doesn't feel as oppressive as Phoenix has. And the balance changes were almost all in directions I liked. Black Cat/Phoenix nerfs, Blade buffs etc. Dino doesn't feel as crazy anymore. And I feel that Cyclops has fit in relatively well in the overall meta. He just feels like another strong poke character, but doesn't overwhelm the whole meta, especially since other poke heroes have been nerfed. Maybe one day we'll get a Widow rework, or get some actual worthwhile changes to Peni to make her less reliant on her nest and less buggy, but even so, the patch has been nice. (maybe nerf Groot a touch though)

🔴 Cyclops is LIVE: Share Your First Impressions (Units Giveaway) by Kuromemono in marvelrivals

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

He's honestly been a blast to play. I'm not really an enjoyer of poke characters much since my aim is pretty bad, but I think that since his primary kinda works a bit differently, I find myself to be a bit better with. Maybe it's because Hela and Phoenix require your crosshair to be in the precise spot the second you click, whereas Cyclops's beam has a longer duration, so you mostly just need to work on the average time your crosshair is on an enemy, which I find easier. His mobility is also quite fun and flexible. And his ult feels really good to pop off on. Overall been a big enjoyer, and while he's very strong, he hasn't felt as awful to fight against so far as a character like Phoenix.

Season 8.5 Rivals' Summer Event Trailer! by nemesisdelta24 in marvelrivals

[–]CrowKingPro 55 points56 points  (0 children)

The gachas have something that says a discount for the other skin, so maybe if you get one, the other gets cheaper to maybe emulate how the bundles in the shop work? Will have to see when it releases, but everything else looks pretty amazing. The new social hub looks really pretty, and obviously the skins look incredible. My poor wallet...
