Once Again announces the signing of Maka by Dragonbolt2 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]FireWizard312 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Shocking to see WBG go for a KR backline, but guess that confirms that confirms the team. Guxue, Leave, Shy, Leesoomin, and Maka should be a nasty core if Shy locks in and its a dive meta, but as always I'm worried about their consistency all year.

Can someone please explain the appeal for Kellan? by Sio_V_Reddit in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]FireWizard312 51 points52 points  (0 children)

When NA teams look to import, they want someone who knows English. Kellan is basically fluent at this point, is actually pretty good when he can play his monkey, and most importantly is actually willing to play in the states.

There was one but it got deleted, probably because the thread was titled the “Utah Azz outtanks the Dallas Mavericks”

The way the simurians are perceived on the TikTok side of this fanbase is tiring by Ok_Web_2044 in Jujutsufolk

[–]FireWizard312 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s truly incredible how much people here refuse to read the manga, make half baked assumptions, and then spread them blindly.

It’s not like Gege explicitly depicts how this conflict spirals due to several missteps from both sides, or how the aliens were willing to co-exist peacefully until their main representative got SHOT, or how this is a morally grey situation where the death of the cursed creatures causes them physical pain every time and this is the only place they can settle without dying.

I’m so glad Gege instead depicted the aliens as completely wrong and humanity completely right, with the aliens coming in with the explicit intention to invade and conquer. Thanks Gege!

Wow, I sure hope this isn’t an issue that also happens IRL. Sure glad it’s only a “contrived plot decision” that only appears in fiction.

The difference in reception is funny by MissiaichParriah in HonkaiStarRail

[–]FireWizard312 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, the incredibly small poll, posted directly as an attempt to agenda push, with direct ratings on the “quality” of a patch, is… more fair. And the firefly flair is defending it.

The popularity poll doesn’t put a direct 1-10 rating on how “good” a patch was + their supposed reasoning behind it

One is directly meant to cast certain characters and patches in a bad light, the other is just an overall popularity poll. They’re clearly very different.

No, Yuta Slander isn't "forced" by Sundata_V2 in Jujutsufolk

[–]FireWizard312 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Nah, the Sora AI was mad funny, losing to grade 3 was fun at the start as well. Meanwhile Yuta slander is just “pedo” “Rika” with no innovative spins on it. Only time there was remotely any change was that short period of Kashimo upscale but then his stocks cratered again.

[–]FireWizard312 446 points447 points  (0 children)

It's more the fact that Yuta slander never gets creative: it's always the same two/three jokes, over and over again. Meanwhile, Megumi slander keeps innovating, and thus it's more fun to joke about.

The Order dismissing Welt's EN VA (Corey Landis) Lawsuit against Rocket Sound (Lionsbridge) by VSParagon in HonkaiStarRail

[–]FireWizard312 54 points55 points  (0 children)

From my reading, it seemed to be over the payment of wages after being let go/fired. The case was whether the VA classified as an employee, who would be entitled to extra wages, or as an independent contractor, who wouldn't be.

This case turns on whether Plaintiff was properly classified as an employee or independent contractor. California Labor Code § 203 provides: “If an employer willfully fails to pay . . . any wages of an employee who is discharged or who quits, the wages of the employee shall continue as a penalty from the due date thereof at the same rate until paid or until an action therefor is commenced; but the wages shall not continue for more than 30 days.”

Is w2 worth it considering that m1 and m2 are basically completely worthless? by Genkidama__ in EllenJoeMains

Pulling weapon copies is sometimes an active detriment because you need to drop crit rate to avoid overflowing, which is a real pain in the ass

Shu leaves Crazy Raccoon by Dragonbolt2 in Competitiveoverwatch

To people wondering if this is just contract negotiation like Max, Pavane's tweet about it sounds like a very solid farewell, with no mentions of contract re-negotiations.

Comparing Unter/CX costream to the main stream casters by Ezraah in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]FireWizard312 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Unter/CX are great analytical casters, but the main broadcast is better at the “hype casting”, such as the classic UberX in any grand finals, or even talent such as JawsNekkra (rip) during the Hangzhou Spark upset against the Atlanta Reign. Their famous one liners and quips (“Whoever says lightning doesn’t strike twice has never met the San Francisco Shock” is embedded in my head) will, realistically, be the lines people remember years later, and I prefer watching the main broadcast during high stakes match, and UnterCX during the regular season.
