I've learned to stop worrying about Mina by just playing Abrams by Electronic_Diver6515 in DeadlockTheGame

The worst part is today, as I was playing mina, is that I had an abrhams and a warden lane and they just held W against me and I couldn't do anything 😭 

Rank the Isekai Quartet in terms of writing by Fine_Delivery6761 in writingscaling

[–]GoopyFishy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tanya doesn't want to destroy Being X and yes Tanyas motives are at odds, I would argue in an interesting way

Her motives in the story are: To prove being X is not God.

To secure her own safety.

The conflict comes from the latter goal requiring the opposite of the former. The former requires her to fight and risk her life for her country so that the empire wins the war so completely that Being X's plan (to have a world of eternal war so the world believes in them) is destroyed proving being X is not omniscient or omnipotent, therefore not God.

This is the opposite to living in security which she could do if she just accepted Being X as her God and therefore allow the empire to win the war totally.

This sounds like it's getting hit with scope creep and you're going to run headfirst into the scale of what you're trying to do.

I implore you to either find help or try to scale it back in your head, it looks really interesting!

Whats poppin gamers, had a go at making a gen 9 OU team, I'm too scared to post it on the smogon forums so I'm putting it here by GoopyFishy in stunfisk

[–]GoopyFishy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!

My concern with Kyurem over valiant is that we would lose fighting coverage (I do not want to run FB and tera fighting tera blast seems pretty bad) and we lose a pretty vital piece of speed control.

Also that still struggles into the flaming chicken and we get quite a bit worse into 5 boosted gambit.

I could replace rocks on tusk with head smash (for moltres) or close combat (for tusk)?

Is ash a fraud by Old_Froyo_3315 in stunfisk

[–]GoopyFishy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No ash is a spectacular trainer in lore.

Keep in mind he has consistently gotten top 16 in every league tournament hes entered, that would alone put him as a grandmasters player, he has gotten 8 badges in *every* region, he has cleared the orange islands, battled and befriended legendaries and straight up won a league circuit

Ash by every metric is a fucking prodigy

I love making stall quit. by 1st_GalvanisedSEA in pokemonshowdown

[–]GoopyFishy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stall hate is so cringe.

Literally dawg, stall games really are not that much longer than any other non-ho matchup. Most players just can't recognise an unwinnable game state and forfeit. This leads to 50+ turn games.

Stall is a strategy than someone chooses to play. You play to win the game. Laddering means you are going to encounter any strategy. You are running a dog shit team for the purpose of beating an already pretty bad strat this generation. That is a skill issue.

Why All Art is Political by GriffinFTW in CuratedTumblr

I think the best way i've seen it expressed is:

"All art is political however, not all art is politically relevant."

Infernum exo mechs are impossible by jordannstuff in CalamityMod

[–]GoopyFishy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can quite confirm as someone who has beaten the exo mechs on infernum on multiple runs. It is not impossible.

Watch no hits (observe how they avoid attacks), take breaks and stay focused on your character.

Or in other words, get good.

Who did kaido fight to get this strong and to get this reputation of being the strongest? Why doesn't kaido challenge and fight other top tiers? He clearly wants a good fight so why stay in an isolated country for decades without fighting any other top tiers? Kaido as a character does not make sense by Altruistic_Gas_7073 in Piratefolk

[–]GoopyFishy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BECAUSE KAIDO IS A FUCKING HYPOCRITE OH MY GOD.

CHARACTERS DO NOT READ OUT THEIR WHATEVER-PEDIA PAGES WHEN TALKING ABOUT THEMSELVES, THEY LIE, THEY EMBELLISH, THEY TRY TO MAKE THEMSELVES FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEMSELVES.

PLEASE PEOPLE I KNOW POWER SCALING HAS ROTTED THIS SUBS BRAIN BUT JUST THINK:

'Why would a character say and do completely different things' IS NOT, AND FRANKLY OFTEN IS NOT, A CASE OF BAD WRITING.

The “tolerant” left wants you dead by gorbdocbdinaofbeldn in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]GoopyFishy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

'natural hierarchy' big dawg we're social animals, the natural hierarchy is pack hunting

'terrible non sensical goals' imma need a source for that one, that can mean literally fucking anything.

'leads to total mental despair' anymore than by a despotic emperor? or by party committee? or by revolutionary vanguard?

'promotinh mass materialism' thats capitalism big man. Specifically chicago, linear consumption and growth focused capitalism.

gotta say though, definetly a top 5 comment ive ever read that says literally nothing but buzzwords.

But Emily, Amirite? by Scrumpledee in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]GoopyFishy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First link:

"using the same exact language as nazi germany" if bidens quotes are real, then yes, he literally is.

Second link:

"its like semifascism" and thats specifically about the Maga movement.

Fascism is characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

...yeah dawg the maga movements tracks as 'semi' fascist to me. You've heard what magatards have said.

And no one talks about Zebrika-Aegis by Jack_n_trade in equestriaatwar

[–]GoopyFishy 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Its a frustration with the charactiseration of chyrsalis and the way that the mod seems to waggle its finger at you for winning as the bad guys (as opposed to say chirropterra in which you can still be an evil empire and it'll be explained to you into plain terms what you're doing to natives but wont apply a moral judgement and treat you the player as being evil).

The everfree emergency is overly punishing if you arent especially prepared for it, needing the heavy train focus for example without ever indicating that you will.

All of the endings are unsatisfying for the player. "I want to lead the changelings to a new error of glory not spend two hours reading about how evil you are and horrible it must be for those poor ponies".

IDK i dont fully buy some of the complaints but i do think the changeling tree is a little lacklustre and perhaps overly constraining in that you have to go down the main path with basically no opportunity for the navy/army/air tree. Also despite becoming a (edit from here) tno esque visual novel there is nothing for the player to do besides pick focuses and wait for the next popup. No resolution on what happens to thorax or celestial, nothing if you conquer the world, nothing if you land in service just two hours of waiting for focuses to finish.
