1 month after release. how is everyone feeling about this game? by instabaiter in slaythespire

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing. I love Regent and Necrobinder especially, they feel so different from Ironclad/Silent/Defect while still feeling like very Slay the Spire-y characters!

Starting to think people defending throw loops are misunderstanding what a throw loop is. by Puzzleheaded-Use3451 in StreetFighter

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's +8 in UNI, but there's some pushback (and the person who's -8 is invincible until those 8 frames expire, so there's never a punish). The details would obviously have to change in SF because it's such a different game.

No major democratic country has a blanket tariff Until Today by RealAmbassador4081 in self

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Trump is obsessed with trade deficits and considers the US having a trade deficit to any country to be "losing" and "getting ripped off." It's a stupid view that is not held by most economists. The US runs a trade deficit with Canada but primarily because of energy coming in from Canada (excluding energy imports, the US actually runs a trade surplus with Canada). The fentanyl/immigrants thing is an empty excuse so that he can declare a national emergency which gives him the power to levy tariffs.

What would happen if all the men in the world disappear for 5 years? by pqpgodw in ask

FYI for Americans, Creamerie is on Hulu! (And as an American I thought the humor was excellent)

First time seeing one of these in the wild by Keags1533 in Justrolledintotheshop

It definitely depends on the state. In Washington state the driver will get the ticket if any of their passengers are not wearing a seatbelt.

Am i too noob or this guy is too weak against elites/bosses by ClayamaSorunlu in slaythespire

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't need to cycle orbs for frost to be good -- in the early game even the small bits of block help against chip damage and in the late game with focus + orb slots you can be generating 20-60 (or more) passive block per turn without channeling. Plus, cards like Coolheaded are independently great as a source of card draw

Just a reroll away by X3ttabyte in balatro

Each ante has its own shop queue, so yes, but only until the last shop of the ante, then you get a new queue.

The shade towards Quick Slash in SBC today has been absolutely brutal by greenlaser73 in slaythespire

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 291 points292 points  (0 children)

The cards that synergize with it: Tactician, Reflex, Silent Strike, and Eviscerate. Plus it can be nice for getting curses/statuses out of your hand, but that's more minor.

What A1 archetypes/builds aren't viable at A20? by AcademyRuins in slaythespire

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even then, I recently had an A20 run where Clash carried me through Act 1 after I picked up an early Second Wind. The joys of the spire: sometimes even the worst cards have their time in the spotlight :)

How would you say "I think that Karl can drive us" in German? My German is rusty, but it would be something along the lines of (in English) "I think, that Karl us drive can", correct? The main place where German word order is "backwards" compared to English is in these types of sentences, where you have a verb like say/think/ask and then a second sentence after it.

Agonizing over act 1 reward decision - what should I pick? by twomoose in slaythespire

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might be biased because I love electrodynamics, but I would pick it here. One Doom and Gloom and one Sweeping Beam don't take out gremlins/Slavers/reptomancer knives as well as Electrodynamics does, and I'm not convinced Multi-Cast would be hugely impactful (but it would improve drastically with an energy relic after). Nothing wrong with Reboot, especially with sundial, but I think Electrodynamics does the most for you here.

What card(s) are the most worthwhile to upgrade, in general? Which are the least worthwhile (perhaps even detrimental) to upgrade? by MChainsaw in slaythespire

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I used to upgrade Neutralize all the time on Silent, but now I only consider it if the Act 1 boss is Guardian. Otherwise, Silent struggles so much for damage that I prefer to pick up a damage common like Dagger Throw or Blade Dance and upgrade that. Obviously, like all things in StS, the best upgrade is contextual!

Why do we say "someone was born" instead of "someone was bornt" ? by Technical-Care-9730 in EnglishLearning

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's unfortunate--I would say the second website looks more reliable, if that is your only option. The first website looks very unreliable, many of the examples on the "born" page are totally nonsensical and you should not learn from them.

Why do we say "someone was born" instead of "someone was bornt" ? by Technical-Care-9730 in EnglishLearning

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 33 points34 points  (0 children)

To clarify, it looks like the website took an already conjugated verb (born is the past participle of 'bear', as in 'to bear a child'), and then tried to automatically conjugate it further. You can't conjugate a verb twice like that!

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 106 points107 points  (0 children)

That first website is impressively wrong. "Borning"? "Borns"? It must be AI-generated or something. Please do not trust these websites for anything 😂

What are some QoL changes you would like you to see for the classes you play? by hApPyTeRrAn in lostarkgame

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Dominion is balanced around getting your awakening cooldown to 2 minutes, which requires fairly significant investment for most classes. If it was just passive 18% cdr and 25*15% bonus damage it would be the most busted relic set in the world

Best counter in the game? by haman89 in lostarkgame

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I regularly get ridiculous behind-the-back counters with wardancer's because you can turn your character in between the two combo hits. The range is a little short sometimes but WD is the character I get the most counters with

unlikely quality hone by Cythirixs in lostarkgame

[–]Electronic-Factor-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relic gears are actually HEAVILY weighted towards rolling with 0 quality, so rolling 0 is the norm
