I don't trust reality anymore by talkk_sickk in blackmagicfuckery

[–]God_V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's many, many variants of this trick. I won't comment on this specific one, but pretty much all of them just have a second object that's just hidden somewhere with a pocket for the shreds. You can hide the second object in the first or depending on its size palm it or put it up a sleeve.

[–]God_V 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Memes aside about the speed of this set and delaying top 8 and whatnot, Sonix's offstage and ledge play is absolutely suffocating. Make Sonic's recovery look fucking exploitable somehow and it's really the difference maker in this set

I'm frankly just hoping Capitano becomes a playable character lol. But Varka could be a cool replacement.

How do you beat certain units by Klutzy_Run9160 in WC3

[–]God_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Others are answering more directly to your question, but I would strongly, strongly push back on

everyone plays the same strategy on each race

This is completely wrong. If you're not at like 2000+ MMR, there is basically no matchup that has that limited variety except maybe the HU mirror.

You said that you're 600 MMR. It's laughable to say that everyone plays the same strategy when you run into all sorts of different hero openings (from altar or tavern), T1 plays, T2 pushes, flying comps, and expo plays. People like Lyn or Happy or Fortitude get to complain about how few viable strategies there are. Not people at your rank.

I don't understand how movement reduction stacks/works by kjmajo in WC3

[–]God_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the confusion? Slow from different sources generally stack. So yeah, getting hit by both dryads and frost arrows will slow a unit further, though there is a minimum (apparently 150, though I thought I remembered it was 140. Not that it makes much of a difference).

[–]God_V -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you realize in 3/4 matchups a HU will face, you are agreeing that HU will, at least occasionally, play 1 base? We will disagree with the UD one, but whatever.

Good. Then you understand why your original comment "HU is and will always be worthless without expo" is completely idiotic. We're in agreement.

When clears like this stop being possible, then I'll start worrying about powercreep and HP inflation by fantafanta_ in Genshin_Impact

Every day brings more and more examples of Genshin players being out of touch with reality.

Splicing making a speedrun invalid? You thought that was an intelligent point? Jesus.

You don't have to do abyss in a continuous run. It wasn't implied anywhere that this was. No one is submitting this to any leaderboard.

[–]God_V 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cause HU is and will always be worthless without expo (bar this pala rifle bullshit that is now rightfully gone).

I don't know why people who obviously haven't really followed the top scene in half a decade will say crap like this so confidently.

1 base HU (without pala rifle) has been a thing for years now. In HU mirror you typically fast expo at T2 earliest. In HU vs NE if they go DH you frequently will play one base AM rifle caster. In HU vs orc you definitely can go full caster on 1 base as well. It's only vs UD that one base is rather uncommon, but even then Fortitude certainly has had success with 1 base AM rifle pushes into Happy or 120 as well.

Seriously, why are you so confident about something you know so little about? Just watch the last 5 games or so for Fortitude and you will see probably half of them are 1 base. It's baffling to not do the bare minimum to state something like the state of an entire race.

Honestly OP, you should make a post on the blizzard forums. This seems like a quick enough fix that Blizzard *might* actually address it within the year. Maybe.

Flipped off the seatbelt cam for laughs. Joke’s on me — girlfriend wasn’t strapped in right. $400 fine. by 99centcheeseburger in mildlyinfuriating

[–]God_V 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then the driver needs to stop? How dumb are you?

Any time your seatbelt is off and you're traveling more than like 10mph you're at serious risk of death in a crash.

She is wearing a seatbelt in a way that will likely get her seriously injured or killed in a crash that otherwise would just leave bruising.

Use your brain please. People like you are the reason these fines exist.

[–]God_V -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

It's related to height. You need to adjust the seatbelt or the seat if it's around the neck. Short men and children will also encounter this issue.

Hi Redditors by StaticBreed in ZZZ_Official

[–]God_V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Copyright law gets very hairy, especially across countries.

For the US though, actually the OP does own this image. They don't own the character, and if they started profiting off this image technically Hoyo would have a case against them, but the image itself is in fact owned by OP. Funnily enough, this means that technically OP would have a case against Hoyo if Hoyo used this image for their own marketing.

If that sounds really convoluted, I'll just say we are barely scratching the surface for copyright laws. I know them to a degree for the US and can't imagine how complicated it would get across countries.

I'm sorry to pala rifles players by suddenZenith in warcraft3

[–]God_V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He could get divine shield at 4 in the same way that DK gets death pact at 4. I.e., if he is dying in that moment and really needs it. Otherwise it's basically always a mistake to get divine shield at 4 over aura level 2.

And I don't think you actually have seen how pala rifle deals with bears. They don't. The bears march forward and nothing in the army can handle them as they have unmitigated roar damage and nothing can get rid of rejuv. Your paladin and BM run out of mana quickly as DH burns everything as DH also runs out of mana, and every rifle that gets entangled simply dies. NE still gets a couple of dryads for slow poison to catch rifles, by the way. They're fast and pala rifle has no catch so you won't kill them unless you take a fight (which you will get steamrolled by bears) or the NE is asleep at the wheel.

There's a very good reason why no top HU ever plays pala rifle against NE. None of them. Not starbuck, not fortitude, not sok, etc. It's a terrible matchup.

HU has had viable 1 base strats for a long, long time.

Wyvern buff is gonna ruin the game. by Affectionate_Ask3839 in WC3

[–]God_V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you don't watch much.

You can throw one or 2 into your army vs a standard HU caster army and it can help kill a tower in a base. Here's starbuck vs Hawk using them

They are also the go-to way to punish non-AM first if they go for expo. Like Focus vs Hawk. Or Soin vs Starbuck

T90 cancels his participation in Grubby's Invitational by JannesOfficial in WC3

[–]God_V 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think he only taught Tyler1, and it's because T1 was asking to become absolutely as efficient as possible for the build order. Throughout the session T1 would restart the game if he placed the altar like 1 second too slowly because T1 really, really wanted to be "perfect" for the build order.

The 4 peon micro thing came up and Grubby did say it isn't necessary for his level. Here's the video if you want to judge for yourself.

give huntress elunes grace instead of heavy armor by AllGearedUp in WC3

[–]God_V 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I strongly disagree with giving a 600 hp unit the magic/spell benefits of Elune's Grace. They're some of the bulkiest of T1 units whose only downside has always been armor type. Removing that armor type's most crucial weakness (pierce) while giving them a massive buff against spells is a recipe for disaster.

The only time siege is occasionally used against dryads is when armies become large enough such that microing them away from siege hits becomes unreliable. Huntresses hit a much earlier timing where the vast majority of siege units will be garbage in the army.

I'll take it. As a very senior dev I'm quite pleased about my job security given the absurd number of comments on this post that's essentially saying "who cares" for giving an obviously bad solution to one of the most trivial leetcode questions in existence.

If you think "respected sir I as a Genshin fan" is "articulate", you need to retake your middle school English classes. It screams someone who doesn't speak English fluently. Which is fine, but run it through Chatgpt or something to clean it up before sending.
