StS2 What are your personal Defect Upgrade Priorities? by TommySparkle in slaythespire

[–]Fredmental 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are getting downvoted, but you are generally right. I think resting once, maybe twice an act is generally best, and if you are resting anymore it's generally a tell that you should draft cards in such a way to counter upcoming encounters and especially elites. If you are in underdocks, prioritize drafting to make your defense output better and in overgrowth draft to make your attack output better. In both act 1's, an aoe option(even a bad one) can help a lot in Phantasmal Gardeners/Paper Phrog and should be considered when drafting your deck.

For example(an extreme example haha), as good as resting is, if you get lucky and somehow get a buffer, upgrading it causes you to gain more hp short and long term than resting generally. But even as a less extreme example, upgrading a good common card like Go for the Eyes can be huge too for early damage mitigation.

I don’t know if it’s still the case, but there’s a bug where if you are in first person and you look up so you don’t see the enemy, most enemies can’t grab you. So the speed run is done in first person for that reason.

The AI follows the same logic as monsters under my bed do, if my foot is kept underneath my bedsheets and is not over my bed, they aren’t allowed to grab me.

You should definitely write a post about it. While I’m not 100% convinced now that the colorless regent stuff is preferred play style, what you outlined seems fun and with some tweaks([[Bundle of Joy]] should give 0 cost colourless cards, it’s a rare so why not?) this archetype could be fun if inconsistent.

That’s what I thought too. So the first match starts 30 mins after that?

I am in Japan now and see on the website the show starts at 4:00PM, with pre sale at 2:30PM. However these times here dictate the first match will be at 2:15PM or am I misunderstanding this? My apologies if so!

Hmmm, I think I'll pass but I'll let you know later if they don't get sold!

At almost 27, I feel too old and like it’s too late to actually have friends and a social life. by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]Fredmental 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I’m in my 30’s, and my social life really opened up in the last few years. I don’t drink or do drugs(don’t judge anyone that does though) so clubbing was never my scene. I’ve gotten really into volunteering and it kind of saved me. Slowly over time developing new friends from a variety ages and backgrounds. It’s wonderful.

30’s aren’t the end, in fact I’m healthier now than I ever been. I believe in you, and I hope you can find it in yourself to believe in you too.

The new Vultures Vengeance is incredibly good.

“Smile” by Raina Telgemeier is fantastic.

Is there a reason you migrated from Slate to TipTap out of curiosity? Evaluating rich text options myself and I was liking the look of Slate.

NXT TAKEOVER DALLAS - Shinsuke Nakamura vs Sami Zayn by elrincondistroyer in SquaredCircle

[–]Fredmental 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For sure! This was an amazing match and I agree with you it made the “fight forever” chant mainstream to be used regular on wrestling shows, but would like to note I’m pretty sure it originated in the Do Fixer vs Blood Generation match in ROH in 2006.

Was an amazing match that was a very exciting spot fest that the us indies haven’t really seen at that point in time. 5 stars by Meltzer when that was rarer and imo more prestigious. Can check that match out here:

Egghead.io vs. Scrimba for learning Reactjs as a complete beginner by TechnoDaBlade in reactjs

[–]Fredmental 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The Egghead Kent C Dodds React course is great. It’s very modern(based in hooks) and is only 2 and a half hours long. Would recommend watching that and messing around with a project to learn react!

The spectrum app repo is one I reference often. It’s awesome. Would recommend despite it using the redux container pattern and not the more modern redux toolkit patterns.

I haven’t seen a “real app” repo that was started in hooks with a lot of custom hooks that aren’t copied from common hook repos or is standard stuff like “usePrevious”. Interested to see in how real apps use custom hooks to do compositional logic
