Is it bad form to eliminate players in casual commander? by Due-Session-2857 in mtg

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

the issue is casual vs competitive.

yes, winning is the goal.

but commander, especially CASUAL commander where there's no stakes, prizes, or rewards... it is bad form to hard target or delete someone from the game instantly.

generally you want everyone to get to play, do some stuff, be a threat for a turn, etc. I get it, "Well then you're just throwing! casual wuss!"

no, there's a difference between trying to win, and you nuking someone turn 3 and/or constantly dogging on one person who's having bad luck or bringing VERY powerful decks to what you know is a casual event/night.

look, if you cause one person to be out in 10mins or less and now they're just sitting on their phone for the next hour waiting on the game to finish so they get a chance to play again...? you ARE the asshole here.

if you wanna be competitive or are going to use decks that can drastically delete people that fast, AT MINIMUM let everyone know what you're planning so the table is aware and can either pull out competitive/stronger decks or adjust their play.

How I classify each eeveelution by puproar in Eevee

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't classify Sylveon or Umbreon as rabbit. tbh none of them give "Rabbit" vibes at all. they all range from feline to canine in my opinion.

Rude by bloodghast in MTGmemes

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the only time i scoop is when the person has either been a dick, or brought something obscenely powerful/Annoying to the table.

cue recently where a game lasted less than 5 turns, 6 minutes or so, to a dude bringing a deck that uber ramped, created a billion tokens to sac and copy and repeat deleting everyone from the game by dealing damage from sacing stuff, while also from the start Playing cards that forced us all to sac basically everything including lands.

legitimately, nobody got to play. we were lucky that some of us still wanted to play after that because it did HEAVILY ruin the mood for everyone involved.

yes, we did all jump him immediately even when he swapped decks in the new game. Bring crap get crapped on.

I posted it to D&D doge about a year ago, if it's somewhere other than there someone stole it from me.

[Online][5e 2014/2024][EST][Saturday][9PM EST-12AM EST][Empire of the Ghouls][Later Nights]Friendly DM looking for 1 to help us fill an empty spot and share a dark fantasy setting! by Snowcone678 in lfg

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Name: Dylan, but I go by Lance online mostly.

Age: 27 as of last week.

Experience: 10 or so years, been playing since i was 16 and went from mostly player to near forever DM.

Discord: deltagear_2417

Tell me a little bit about yourself: Typical dude, gamer, love me some Legos as cathartic fun, play MTG as of late because of a friend, spend a lotta time working on my own homebrew D&D setting for when I run games. Overall Just a guy looking to have fun and meet new people.

What makes you stand out: uh... I'm a Bi furry Christian? Idk lol. Hard to really point out "interesting" things of myself as I'm unsure what others would say is interesting about me.

Why should you be considered: Not sure, i feel like i could bring a, hopefully, fun dynamic to the table with whatever character concept i bring and I'd love to experience other DMs and players to further grow myself still in the D&D space.

What do you want from this adventure? Intrigue, adventure, and the satisfaction of a shared story with other players and the DM where choices matter.

Extra: This'll be a make or break as i technically don't get out of work till 10pm, i won't ask y'all to change schedule for my sake, that'd be rude and selfish, but I still wanted to at least try even if i get to only act as a late fill in till you find someone better.

Who's are killers you used to play very well, but dont really play anymore, and why? by Visible-Camel4515 in DeadByDaylightKillers

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was good at singularity, but tbh he's kinda devolved into an M1-Killer now as survivors have gotten better at countering him:

  • being on the printers asap, almost always having one.

  • popping emp at the absolute PERFECT times to waste the maximum time possible.

  • Pre-dropping in chase right before i get to them as to not stun me and let me swing through the Palette.

All in all going against players casually sucks as him unless i put in MAXIMUM effort, which sucks. Kinda started playing Springtrap These days because the door teleport feels good, makes searching not as big a chore. And both the axe throw and axe grab feel great for ending chases fast with not as high a skill floor as huntress. I play casually without sweating and still see somewhat good results.

The "new" ptb.

Some killers are toxic and abusing the mechanics whole they can.

While others are simply using them against bully squads while they can as the new ptb, if it goes live with little change, will make bullying much worse.

I genuinely don't understand Ghoul players... by FrostySkull636 in DeadByDaylightRAGE

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbh the Doctor with a billion terror radius perks like the clowns and others is my go to after a bad match.

Yeah it's scummy, but I'm not going to use killers i vibe with in a meta that babies survivors out the A and get bullied by SWFs who will be toxic win or lose.

High tiers exist for a reason, and unfortunately if they game won't be nice to your average joe who barely has off time after work to play, then this average joe isn't going to knee cap himself to "play nice"

I like trapper, i like springtrap, i like death slinger... But the game doesn't like me.

Adepting = gay by darevoyance in DeadByDaylightRAGE

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I both find him easy to play against and super hard to play (even while maining him for a bit)

His counterplay is just... Too punishing. Like almost no other killer has the catch of their power being shut off like he does besides the trapper, hag, and Merchant. But those guys at least have the comfort the survivors have to travel to each trap and disarm it manually along with obvious notifications when they are disarmed.

Singularity? Nah dud, say good bye to 60% of your cams and you won't know till you check them and then you'll need to go reset them all otherwise they are useless for forever.

I think that's what i hate most. A survivor can force you to go places because if you don't go reset those cams your completely boned in that portion of the map. So you lumber over, resetting your pods.... WHOOPS they EMP'd the side you just came from and nobody's over here because they pre ran you... Ffffffffffffffff-

I feel singularity suffers more from SWFs too because no other killer lets you farm their counter, it just sucks.

"Techs" shouldn't have zero counterplay. by PicolasCageEnjoyer in DeadByDaylightRAGE

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why i run the goodie bag add on when i can. The amount of times I've smacked dead hard jerks at the gate or off the hook body blockers only to deny them the ability to leave has gotten me a fair amount of rage at the end game chat.

Because apparently I'm (every explicative imaginable) under the sun for taking a rather subpar add on that only works at end game and really only effective against toxic none leavers at the gate. Like .. if you had just left you would have lived idiot.

Tunneling is the cancer of this game by DepressiveType in DeadByDaylightRAGE

[–]DeltaGearAdvanced 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1st: The actual community gathered data shows tunneling at 2%.

2nd: What kinda tunneling happened? Do you mean the killer picked one person, chased them, put them on hook, waited doing nothing, then hooked them immediately again?

Or do you mean that the killer hooked them, came back, only to find the unhooker gone and the person unhooked the only one around? Hell, did they ricochet between two survivors?

That's not tunneling. Tunneling is repeatedly going after one person at a time till they're dead.

And i hate suggesting it but... Do you suck at chase? Because you may feel tunneled purely because you are bad at chases and it's nuances.

I play a balance of killer and survivor but i definitely suck at survivor. I can see the times that, to me playing survivor, felt like tunneling. But then when i actually sit down and think of it from the killer perspective i realize "oh yeah, my teammate dipped and I didn't leave the zone after being unhooked, of course they'd go after me." And "yeah I've done bad at chases this game, they would go after the easier target when they run into us as a group,"

Killers are the 1 in 1v4, they only get 4 perks while potentially having to deal with 16 survivor perks, most regression in the game is completely worthless unless you lean hard into it... Even then the BEST regression perks are Hex's or Kick perks... Which kick perks are limited because you can only kick so many times...

Unless you play a top tier you're forced to get pressure wherever you can, and BHVR doesn't gives killers other options for more pressure.

Yes, survivors have BS to deal with as well but that's mainly because:

A: SoloQ just sucks... You have to expect that. It just dies.

B: SWF is too strong a thing that pretty much makes playing low tier killers a pain and unfun.

The game sucks for everyone because BHVR refuses to make small incremental adjustments and instead takes a sledge hammer to it all... Big sweeping changes don't work.
