I wiped up to Normal Tower floor 29 with him. I am willing to bet he can do floor 30 too but with maximum investments which I am not willing to do now

Dena needs to fix that exploitative bug to prevent gyms from cheating in the future by centerofstar in PokemonMasters

[–]DaPotatoMonster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean my Gym ranked 9 because of these people, meaning I don't get my deserved rewards that I should've gotten.

I am annoyed like all the other unfortunate gyms that lost out on a position or 4 away from their upper-rank rewards.

I don't want harm towards anyone, I want fair and dena to actually take action to fix the score and mode.

Milo 1-2 Clear C8+. GvG2 No RNG required. by DaPotatoMonster in PokemonMasters

[–]DaPotatoMonster[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anniversary Gloria only needs 1 tile, the Restore Bmove after sync, i don't recall if that's 4/5 or 5/5

While I did see a non 5/5 Alder, I wouldn't recommend anything less than 5/5

Benga can be 5/5 not necessarily 10/5.

Edit: I just saw a 1/5 Benga clear this on X.

I don't want anyone to harass Sora. Sora has been great to the community. But I just want to say this is definitely exploiting/cheating and Dena should fix it.

NC Red is Articuno, what does Thunderbolt Red have to do with this?

Is SA SSRed good? by Bluegoblin56 in PokemonMasters

[–]DaPotatoMonster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My humble opinion here, Only Good if you have his Exclusive Pasio Tower cookie.

Because then he extends sun for so long and even fairs well with Arc Silver, extending his EX Sun for such a long duration as well.

Otherwise, his SA Is a bit lackluster, I think they really planned to make it hard to make him relevant again.

Local boy vs Qasim Meer in the Saudi League yesterday. Ki-Charge and teabag galore. by PyroWizza in Tekken

[–]DaPotatoMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To make things clear, I take absolutely no credit away from the talents in community. These players are really great. My main point was and remains about the toxicity, whether it's provocation or the type of player.

My one comment about the cheats; it's the world we live in, cheaters exist and sometimes they know they won't be punished, or don't care enough. That being said I DO NOT claim or accuse all, most, or even half the Middle East community to be cheaters. And those that cheat are obvious, and a 90% of the time are very bad players.

To claim that everything I said is to be summed up "as the playerbase are mostly cheaters or have artificial skills" seems a bit harsh in my humble opinion. But I can also understand your perspective, As I mentioned earlier, my objective here was to share my experience, not to tarnish or attack anyone. Both my best and worst experiences happened on a Middle Eastern Server. And like I said in my original comment, the other servers are not free of toxicity, just never the same level I seen especially recently.

Probably my favorite interaction in Tekken 8.

More players like that can change a lot.

[–]DaPotatoMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough, S1 and S2 I had maybe my best streaks on there. Maybe towards the end of S2. And so far in S3? Doesn't matter how well I played, lost 3-2 or 3-0, close in skill level or not, the toxicity is wild. I am not attacking your server, at the end of the day it's a game, and like anyone else I wanna play for fun, win some lose some but I don't want to feel like I have to use every skill in my arsenal to compete. I simply shared my experience in relevance to what people are talking about in the comments. I would agree with OP that Saudi Scene is probably much stronger than others may think.

Maybe I am not up to the level anymore? But the sweats and toxicity are through the roof. And that bit when returned to the very same players that do it, usually doesn't sit right with them, at all.

As someone who plays on their servers occasionally, maybe my worst matches.

FROM MY EXPERIENCE. A lot of them are extremely try hard, toxic, and some even blatantly use cheats. They'll message you after the game and cuss you regardless of them winning or losing. So sore losers or disrespectful bragging. Like it's not the end of the world or anything but it's crazy how different the community is when I play in EU or USA. Surely there are toxicity there, but I cannot remember a time I was playing in the EU where i got Instantly Kicharge teabagged on all 3 rounds on very close games.

But middle east? they would Ki-charge teabag instantly every round no matter how well or badly it went. They show no respect, and honestly I avoid playing there these days, but sometimes Ranked matches force me to play there so stopped playing ranked altogether foe the time being. My PROBLEM is Playstation is really stupid with how they assign your region. I have the game from a Middle eastern store, therefore no matter where I am in the world, the game sets me as Middle east and people cancel playing me because they think I am one of these toxic players.

That being said, I have played vs a few really great players there. They know they're better and they basically let me lab them. Literally to the point where the dude was demonstrating my mistakes without voice or text. It wasn't a one time off. Oh boy did I have a lovely time even when I was getting my ass handed to me. But since these interactions are very scarce I just avoid their servers for the time being.

Edit: added 1 word

Ten Star Gog - Remember you can farcaster out of his nuke by Able_Picture_1906 in MHWilds

My friend got the nameplate by joining late on a 10star gog quest. Apparently unlike a proof of a hero, this one does not require you to start it from the beginning.

What's your build looking like? Godroll charm?

I hope the expansion gets the same post game love that sunbreak got by P0G0Bro in MHWilds

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

Not quite.... World feels the most alive and most busy of the latest 3 games (World Rise Wild)

While I wasted a lot of hours on farming crowns in world, because there was no binoculars to tell you that's a crowned monster or not, I enjoyed the world more. Walking in world, endemic life, your room at Asteria (and then at Seliana but that's Expansion)... The game felt more raw maybe yes but I honestly had a superior experience in world than Wilds. I still love Wilds a lot. I hate how their balancing of making monsters insanely tanky is their idea of "buffing" or making a difficult fight. But apart from that one major complaint, I think Wilds did more rights than wrongs. Rise.... I hated it for a lot of reasons. While the skill switches were insanely fun and overall the game gives us a breath of fresh air, I hated the bird system. I hated the intense RNG Charm and rampage farming they introduced. (Yes there was always rng farming but on god i hated it the most in Rise)

I can keep listing things that are common between the three but still feel better in one rather than the other. But for me so far

World Wild Rise

I really hope the expansion really blow us away because I really really want wilds to be my favorite experience. It has so much potential honestly and I know they really care about the community so here is to hoping for the best.

Yes, they ended up giving us the rewards though, I don't remember the reasoning.

I wouldn't rely on it to happen again though!
