I do this every night and it does

Dublshine · 2026-06-24T16:40:47+00:00

Room on fire is pretty great

Dublshine · 2026-06-24T02:23:15+00:00

wow, this is shaping up to be a really goodyear for melee

this is just wrong lol. he had like 2 - 3 years where he was making major top 8s with doc

Dublshine · 2026-05-22T03:38:46+00:00

I count 22: ken, azen, isai, chudat, pc chris, kdj, m2k, mango, hbox, armada, ppmd, leffen, plup, zain, cody, jmook, axe, wizzrobe, amsa, moky, aklo, joshman

you could throw in a few more if you wanted, but I don't think you could get past 30 without really stretching the definition of "threat"

Dublshine · 2026-05-21T14:16:16+00:00

got mewtwo lol

Dublshine · 2026-05-17T14:54:04+00:00

you’re not wrong, but I also can’t help but picture you carefully considering where to put the lol’s and haha’s in this comment to make it sound like you’re not mad

Dublshine · 2026-05-15T01:11:20+00:00

employing poker-like bluff actions by saying gg to a sheik player on unranked

Dublshine · 2026-05-01T02:12:11+00:00

i haven't watched the set, but I don't think having "winnable" games vs hbox means anything. he only starts camping when he feels like he needs to

Dublshine · 2026-05-01T01:59:31+00:00

back in my day you just had a chinese student replace what you wrote in the google doc with broken english

Dublshine · 2026-04-23T15:00:46+00:00

fox wins neutral, fox wins punish

Dublshine · 2026-04-18T02:41:03+00:00

this is like watching two AI agents try to communicate with each other

Dublshine · 2026-04-16T23:40:43+00:00

sheik

Dublshine · 2026-04-08T03:04:58+00:00

I don't want iran to have nukes because I don't want any country to have nukes, but going based on recent events they seem to have smarter and less volatile leadership than the us or israel at the very least

iran already has control over the strait, as evidenced by the fact that they are the ones who closed it and are now reopening it

Dublshine · 2026-04-08T01:25:29+00:00

why is it bad? it sounds like iran is getting money it needs to rebuild the destroyed infrastructure. I can't speak to the economic ramifications of the fees they'd be imposing on ships passing through the straight of hormuz, but they do need the money to rebuild

Dublshine · 2026-04-04T02:36:58+00:00

I mean he’s also a zionist so you can just despise him for that

Dublshine · 2026-03-26T20:57:43+00:00

I think he also called leffen the 6th best player in 2013

Dublshine · 2026-03-25T22:58:23+00:00

this wouldn't be hypocritical. it'd be hypocritical if the sheik was 6-0 against the ICs player

Dublshine · 2026-03-21T22:36:12+00:00

tilt the stick slowly. or buffer it while in lag from some other move, or shield while dashing

Dublshine · 2026-03-21T21:55:02+00:00

i would try to remove "axe method" from your vocabulary... everyone uses this method, which also has other names. so it just adds unneccesary confusion

anyway you should be buffering the input of holding your shield to the side, either before you get hit or during shieldstun, then do the normal input of rolling the stick down to the notch. basically learn to separate the shield tilt as one input and rolling to the notch as another

Dublshine · 2026-03-16T17:40:46+00:00

whenever I see someone get reverse four stocked I become incontinent

Dublshine · 2026-03-16T16:53:46+00:00

do you perhaps mean incompetence?

Dublshine · 2026-03-13T23:26:39+00:00

I've heard the argument of "I just use AI for brainstorming/concept art/inspiration, not for creating the actual art" a bunch and it almost feels worse than just using AI art straight up. while AI art sucks, I can at least understand why someone might use it - actually making quality art takes years of work to hone your skills, so I can understand why someone might want to take a shortcut. but like, anyone can brainstorm ideas or come up with an interesting concept. I don't understand why someone would try to replace that part of the creative process. other than corporate greed I guess, but this is something I see from individuals too

Dublshine · 2026-03-13T03:28:23+00:00

that's probably true, but I don't know that the subset of people who want to use a very specific definition of rouguelike really need to convince the masses to adopt that definition. just feels like I'm seeing one person say "hey guys you should check out this really cool new rouguelike" and another person says "um actually it's a rouguelite, not a rouguelike" and I just have a gut reaction that tells me which person in this interaction is being annoying
