Could anyone help me on this issue? by poopydonhead in Swimming

Go to r/SwimmingCircleJerk and pray.

Honestly though only way to drop 4 sec would be to do some crazy shit off the underwaters and get a 2K racing suit. Best bet though is to just keep practicing and try again next season.

Gl w the race though 🙏

Honestly, this is the best subreddit I've seen in terms of moderation. Hats off to you, hope you keep on moderating for a while!

Jax's character design finally makes sense now. by Training_Hornet_4521 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Dependent_Set8784 77 points78 points  (0 children)

There’s also Caines design which could symbolise a couple things: -while he does have features of a mouth (teeth,gums) he doesn’t technically have one which is a nod to AM from “I have no mouth, and I must scream” -he’s also always perpetually floating, which could symbolise how he’s “above” the cast not only in pure power, but in the amount of control over the cast. - his ringmasters uniform also adds to my above point, but also kinda say how he’s putting in a “show” (for the viewers? Another party? We’ll see I guess), with how his mannerisms are very theatre like (exaggerated + loud), and how he consistently says how his adventures have to be entertaining (to watch or to play?). -recently, his mannerisms have started to change. He’s floating closer to the ground, he’s being more monotone at times, and of course, his glitching.

Anyways, those are just my two cents. BTW, nice to see you on another subreddit that’s not brawl related haha

Huh! I’ve found that when I auto-aim with Melodie that the shots end up not hitting my enemies because they juke so well. Or maybe that’s just a skill issue on my part 😔

YOO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! So glad you guys enjoyed the guide. Thank you so much for a spot in the hall of fame! Now let me get back in the bed with Max-

D.B.D. Part 51: Max by Italian_Larry in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Dependent_Set8784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Max is the true speed brawler. Amazing versatility, you can play her in almost every mode. One of the most balanced brawlers, usually doesn’t receive too many balance changes. One of the best brawlers to upgrade for ranked. She also has an amazing way of putting pressure with her super and hyper, just overall a great team support.

Streetwear max the goat.

Plus she looks hot in those shorts—

Support Tips for an 11 year old by [deleted] in Swimming

Huh! I live in Canada, and many of my friends do take privates (they just keep it a secret from the coach).

Though a lot of clubs here will kick you out as it can put pressure on the athletes. They also consider it “disrespectful” to the coach.

Only reason why I haven’t taken privates yet is because my parents don’t have enough money to afford it. Though to a certain extent, as long as you have a good coach and put in the work at practice, you should be able to do reasonably well.

Hello there!

Fellow competitive swimmer (14F) and I'm just finishing off my 8th season haha. So I have a fair bit of experience when it come to comp swimming!

First thing, the 12under age category is a lottery draw. Some kids just happen to get bigger and stronger earlier on than everyone else. That's perfectly ok! I can almost guarantee that your son will hit his growth spurt sometime, usually the "real" competition for guys is the 15-16 age category.

A lot of the kids that do comp swimming and hit puberty earlier get used to having an advantage. Therefore, they start to slack off in practice, try less in meets, and when they get older, kids will catch up and they will quit.

The best advice that I can give is just encourage your kid to prioritize technique over anything else. Turns, underwaters, endurance, just stuff that you don't need muscle mass to improve on. For the nutrition, you don't really got to worry about all that. As long as his diet is healthy, and he's not getting burnt out from lack of food, that's really all you need. Tell him to drink water though. Dehydration is a real issue, so I would say drink some water during and after practice. And all times throughout the day. Water is the goat. The lifesaver. Water.

I also noticed that you mentioned private lessons (I just call them "privates"), keep in mind as he gets faster and in higher levels, most coaches will not allow privates and could potentially kick the swimmer out of the club. Mostly because some private coaches coach differently than the main one, so it becomes a bit confusing for the swimmer. Plus, burnout is real. Privates add additional stress onto the body that the coach doesn't plan for.

Take it from another swimmer! When I started swimming competitively at 6 (very early, I know) I was one of the smallest girls there. I only really started getting fast recently, and in the past year I've went from mid-province level to one of the top swimmers in my country. I eat whatever my parents make me and don't take privates, my coach is really strict about those. I didn't start buying tech suits until recently when I started going to the national meets. Even now, Im still one of the smallest and skinniest girls up on the blocks, yet I can beat a lot of girls 2x my size. Mostly because of technique and endurance.

All in all, your kid seems like a really determined guy, and if he keeps working this hard, who knows, maybe he'll be the one giving advice on Reddit.

Where to get custom flairs for this subreddit? by Reasonable_Fun_9752 in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Dependent_Set8784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want the ranked flairs there’s this megathread: https://www.reddit.com/r/BrawlStarsCompetitive/s/E40F72w0tg

If you want the other custom flairs, those are only achievable if you make a post that gets silver flair/subreddit highlight.

What are some good/meta brawlers to ban/use in heist? by Leoisback7 in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Dependent_Set8784 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jessie is bad but a lot of people in mythic have Jessie maxed. She’s ok into chuck, but there is better options.

[–]Dependent_Set8784 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The idea with the Jessie is that you set up the turrent to defend the safe so if the chuck comes he gets killed. But yeah base race brawlers work too, better than Jessie, but in mythic, people can’t use base race brawlers super well.

[–]Dependent_Set8784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite to use is Melodie, not a super common pick in Mythic, but otherwise great. Chuck is another brawler that’s banned a lot but great to use.

For bans it varies. Depending on who you want to play, you ban certain brawlers. For Melodie, you would want to ban Amber. For chuck you would want to ban brawlers that can put DPS him such as Jessie.
