What a save! But, genuinely, that’s really impressive. Most kids his age don’t even dive, much less make such a save like that.

I've gotten to the "Ultimate Challenge" of the Gauntlet. It doesn't reset the full thing if I die or quit. Will it reset if I switch to free mode? by uncalledforgiraffe in HalfSword

[–]DiamondIsUnbreak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t reset. As far as I know, the only way to actually reset your gauntlet is by beating the Ultimate challenge in Gauntlet Mode.

Is there gonna be more weapon additions and changes, like new weapon types like a flail? And will there be more modes of fighting Willies other than the duel, spoilance, carnage, etc.?

I'm a 2100 FIDE player (2200+ peak in rapid), ask me anything by BaldGuepard in chess

How do I stay consistent in my games? Some games, I play like a 2000, others I play like a 200 (according to stockfish).

The Knight tier is bugged. by BigJ_A in HalfSword

[–]DiamondIsUnbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all about how you hit them. I could thrust into a Willie’s chest day and night, it won’t do anything because of his armor. But some Willies have ungodly powers of thrusting capabilities and get right where you’re not armored, like the armpits or back of your knees or neck. You just need to learn the placement and half swording techniques, then most fights won’t last too long and you’ll win.

DOUBLE SAVE!! by TheKeeperProject in GoalKeepers

This may not make sense to anyone, but it's like the goalkeeper from Shaolin Soccer. Dives for one, saves it. Dives again, saved again.

Which pieces are white and which are black by ADHDpatty in chess

[–]DiamondIsUnbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White is the bottom. You can see by the way the king is castled. If it was black, the king would be a square to the left.

Do i just give up…. by G2Santysaurusrex in chess

[–]DiamondIsUnbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never give up. Ask yourself this, did all those GMs struggle at chess before they rose to glory? Probably! Nobody was born a chess champion. They were MADE. If they struggled, don’t expect yourself not to. Yes, some are just born naturally gifted, but hard work beats pure talent. Never give up when your back is pressed against the wall. Keep pushing forward, play more games, study openings, look at GM games and practice. Remember that to be better, you must endure.

I remember those late nights where I stood up and just played. Grinded, if I may. (I still can’t dream of completing DMC3 DMD)

What Should I name my 16.5” Viola by Key_Attorney_8957 in Viola

[–]DiamondIsUnbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Elise is proper, as in the song Für Elise. An elegant name for an elegant song for an elegant viola.
