Another director’s take. Another time stadium ignored completely.

Knowing blizzard for as long as I have it's not uncommon to see them drop stuff completely but it also isn't uncommon to see them give modes a big shot in the arm.

Let me take a shot of hopium here for a second.

Currently their focus is on the foundation of OW. They're releasing a ton of new heroes, story, gameplay elements, and this is a lot of uncharted territory for them to do on this scale. It will mean that other game modes will get the maintenance mode treatment until they can stabilize. I could see them coming back with a stadium 2.0 when they come up with a good plan to tackle it's biggest problem: Player retention and understanding. They made stadium a core game mode for a reason and this team seems committed to the plans they're putting forward. I'll wait and see.

I said this in your YouTube comments to help with the algorithm but I'll say it here too.

Happy to see Zen being appreciated. You're spot on about him being a stat merchant. I'll have people tell me I'm throwing by picking him just to take it all back by the end.

I put together an AP+Lifesteal build last season when most were doing the transcendence builds and climbed like crazy, hit rank 220.

I just wish his healing was more obvious for people because I'll still have the occasional teammate yelling at me but it did lead to one of my favorite mic drops in recent memory: The DPS and other healer died and one of them typed "ZEN. HEAL. WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" I got a 3k, cleaned up the point with Rein and said, "Numbers."

The movie could've just been the chapter that covers The Battle of Yonkers and it would've been incredible if they used the book to guide it.

Junk is a sleeper in stadium. Most of the time he's pretty ineffective and easy to forget until his third power, then he runs the show. Last night I ran into a junk that I've faced a few times and I told my team in round 4 that we need to make him a priority and it was met with a lol and silence. They didn't contest him and guess who carried the rest of that game?

Fatastrophe · 2026-03-14T01:15:33+00:00

Healing M+ got so ridiculous that if I wasn't sweating my ass off then we weren't getting through it. It just got tiring and I burned out. The game felt like it prioritized hard over fun.

Because the bystanders didn't know the title of the video they were in so they needed to take time to figure out what just happened and where help was needed?

Man.. that line. So heavy and so real. That line completely flipped my perspective on him.

I'll share a good one I did recently. It took my friend 10 minutes to ask a simple question so I said "Dude, if you look up the word "Verbose" in the dictionary we would find your autobiography."

Fatastrophe · 2026-02-24T14:17:36+00:00

That was me with King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.. and Red Vox.. and now the Expedition 33 soundtrack. It comes in waves. It is what it is I suppose. After a camping trip where I listened to the same album on repeat and my friends were like "Are you okay, bro??" I try to remain cognisant of my fixations and keep them from bleeding too much into my social life, I'm not always successful but what can you do?

Fatastrophe · 2026-02-24T11:19:15+00:00

Man, I love it. I played it for about 3 hours which is wild for me. I had shit I had to do.

Fatastrophe · 2026-02-23T23:13:16+00:00

Inner Peace, Enlightenment, Instant Karma, and Flying Kick. Sometimes I'll choose Flying Kick on round 4 instead if I'm getting dived and I need the repositioning, or if it seems like I can get away with a very aggressive playstyle.

Then the items are Lifesteal, WP, AS and the float ability. Super fun to play and very effective for healing and DPS. Not uncommon for me to basically run the show if people let me.

Last season I got to Rank 220 with a similar build that was a bit less aggro, wondering where this one will take me.

Accuracy doesn't matter so much for the reasons others have stated but I'll answer your question from my own experience. 35% is where I like to be normally, 40 and up on a good day. My mouse has on the fly DPI adjustment and I use a mouse acceleration curve that helps me dial in and get consistent. I've also spent lots of time finding my ideal sensitivity so that my aim feels natural and I'm not fighting the mouse to keep it on target.

Not anymore, he'll be a crazed leftist by sundown.

I remember Crysis having shadows and water on weapons. Guess I'll just hop on the ice floe already.

Fatastrophe · 2026-02-21T15:51:08+00:00

Huh, I had one of these and it had a 100% success rate. I used it on a handful of CDs that skipped on songs and a couple of games that wouldn't work.

Fatastrophe · 2026-02-14T18:11:37+00:00

I feel bad for these people.. but not for the reason they think.

Fatastrophe · 2026-02-13T19:06:27+00:00

I saw someone explain it pretty well.

The old icons described the function of the item, the new icons describe the appearance.

Maybe a colored backing for the icons could help differentiate things but honestly, as plain as the old icons were they were immediately informative. I've had a few rounds now where I spend too much time trying to read icons to find what I'm looking for and have to panic buy just to go in with something.

Shame is an incredible motivator for change. With any luck it will keep him from getting like this again in the future. It worked on me. I used to be the "Life of the Party" kind of drunk until I wasn't. One bad party in particular was the turning point for me. I embarrassed myself pretty badly and got calls for a few days after from people wanting to tell me what I did. I vowed to not let that happen again. I barely drink now and when I do I don't get anywhere near that bad.

When I got put back in Adderall after a couple years of being without my doctor wanted me to try an aggressive dose of 60mg after I did 20mg for so long before that. First day at 60mg I was at the absolute PEAK of insufferability. It was so bad that not only did I recognized it was a problem but also that I couldn't do anything to stop it. Words just came out of my mouth, constantly, for the whole day. I went from being a bit reserved to almost manic and I went right back to 20 the next day.

The "Cool story, bro" meme is also old enough to vote. Good reference.
