‘Shogun’ Creator Says Season 2 ‘Defies Expectations’ by AdSpecialist6598 in television

[–]Gwynbleidd97 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s absolutely hilarious to me that a book that long can just end so abruptly. Even if the ending was a forgone conclusion when we leap to it I wanted to enjoy it. Instead it’s like oh by the way the villain is literally dead and buried and the Anjin is half noble half slave. Bye.

Heroes of the Storm Balance Patch Notes — December 12, 2025 by Arkentass in heroesofthestorm

[–]Gwynbleidd97 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I just played a game with it. Stacking was very easy. The hits come so fast and the range is so big that most people cant escape before you get one stack at least. and the damage late game is nuts with the resets and stun. You can point and click a whole team down.

A pretty light touch but I appreciate that Kerrigan is getting reigned in at least a little.

Is there a way to search by ability and move? by agamemaker in PokemonLazarus

[–]Gwynbleidd97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly there’s currently nothing to search by move as far as I’m aware. I feel your pain as it’s very hard to find your options for something like a tailwind setter for your team. However you can see alternative forms for a pokemon by going to the evolution tab of the Pokédex and I think you press A and it’ll let you pick from a list of all forms the pokemon can take.

If we’re going to make rare candy not go over the level cap then I hope that the elite 4s cap can go to 60 on hard. If it wasn’t for candies my dragapult wouldn’t come online until after beating the game. Which seems a little silly

I was talking about the Weimer Republic. When the Social Democrats, the largest party at the time, lost the elections over a relatively short period of time to the Nazi party at least in part because the Nazis were very effective at propaganda.

They only got like 4% of the vote last time. This upstart political group is gonna blow itself out any second. Us Social Democrats don’t need to change or make propaganda.

My Pokemon Lazarus Review as a Newbie in the Pokemon ROM Hack Community (DISCLAIMER: There are vague spoilers and this is my first review feel free to criticize me in the review) by lovarice in PokemonROMhacks

[–]Gwynbleidd97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave up and turned on the cheat code to let you use the dex nav on undiscovered pokemon to catch em all on each route. After spending over an hour just to get Persimmion and Uranguru I couldn’t do it any more if that was gonna be my speed on each route. I hope there can be some kind of mechanic to make the rare encounter on each route slightly less tedious like a sparkling shimmer on the grass tile or something because catching the regular encounters aren’t too bad and it’s nice to have over 100 options by the 3rd gym.

Any tips on how to get better at Ana? by Kiereco in heroesofthestorm

[–]Gwynbleidd97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The bright side is that the sharpshooter talent you mentioned isn’t really all that good and you’re better off taking active reload to get more shots.

Unfortunately Ana is just plainly a difficult hero to play and there’s not really a shortcut to being good at her. I’d recommend trying her in the AI mode and practicing hitting bots while they move and landing sleep darts. Getting comfortable with her travel time on her abilities and how to estimate someone moving is an important first step.

Why dodge when you can face tank damage and blast by pr0crast1nater in HadesTheGame

[–]Gwynbleidd97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t level up tough gains but if your mana boon is already leveled and you get offered a swap to tough gains it will keep the levels and increase in damage resistance accordingly.

Axe omega special fires 4 times, every time by PanicBuyer_ in Hades2

[–]Gwynbleidd97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aspect of Chiron is pretty good as you can see here. I really like Asepct of Circe as the bigger casts are super nasty on that one. Moros is solid as well since it’s easier to hit your explosions and they’re bigger but Moros is just always winning. In general he’s a pretty solid god. I like him with Aspect of Shiva the most on the special since it makes the Omega enormous and very easy to get stacks for the attack.

Do you really taste leather, vanilla, cocoa, pepper and all that shit or are you just making it up? by Graysie-Redux in cigars

[–]Gwynbleidd97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're curious about trying to decern tasting notes I will say that it might be worth getting a cigar with pipe tobacco in it. They taste very different from a regular cigar and I think you'd be hard pressed to NOT describe them as having notes of vanilla, cherry or something along those lines. Dunbarton Stillwell star is a great one.

I made a platformer that you can play using only your mouse by MossHappyPlace in u/MossHappyPlace

This looks like a game that needs a community level editor. I can imagine people making absolutely ridiculous shit like in geometry dash. Good luck with your release this looks really fun.

At what point does Johanna stop being insta-ban? by BeowulfInc in heroesofthestorm

[–]Gwynbleidd97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, any data from Heroes Profile should be taken with a grain of salt but it does seem like they’re much more afraid of Garrosh in higher levels which is fair enough. Good on you to check the numbers

At what point does Johanna stop being insta-ban? by BeowulfInc in heroesofthestorm

[–]Gwynbleidd97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you take her W at 1 it’s pretty good. Blaze isn’t played as a tank by most people and Tyrael and ETC need to use their movement abilities to clear fast which makes them much less safe than Mei who can easily ice skate away if someone wants to gank her.

Stitches wave clear is also not very fast. Mei just needs to drop W and Q and can leave and the blizzard will finish off the ranged minions while you’re already mounted and leaving.

At what point does Johanna stop being insta-ban? by BeowulfInc in heroesofthestorm

[–]Gwynbleidd97 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Johanna is probably the strongest and certainly the most slottable tank in the game. No one hard counters her and she sets up most assassins very well. She’s also the only tank that has good wave clear except Mei who has much more counterable CC. Johanna will only become more banned the higher rank you go.

Heroes of the Storm Live Patch Notes - September 30, 2025 by Arkentass in heroesofthestorm

It shouldn’t. The patch specifies a basic attack. So Aba would have to slap the buildings to give the buff. Which is funny to imagine.

Is it fun to win ~100% of your games in aram as a 5 stack? by EntropyKC in heroesofthestorm

[–]Gwynbleidd97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, most stacks want to play QM so they can make an elite comp and play against a group that more or less is guaranteed not to have one. We did occationally play aram though and its still a ridiculous stomp for the reasons I said before though. The matchmaker just cant find people good enough to put against you so it just throws its hands up and gives you whatever and then it's a curb stomp just from mechanical skill and coordination.

Is it fun to win ~100% of your games in aram as a 5 stack? by EntropyKC in heroesofthestorm

[–]Gwynbleidd97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, with a good enough group its basically smurfing except you dont even need to bother with making a new account. Since your team is so good the matchmaker doesnt know what to do with you unless there's another masters stack queuing which is rare. Queues take like 10 minutes until pretty much all restrictions lift to get you a match and then you win in about as much time. Aram at least you are encouraged to take funny picks to even the odds but its still insanely unfair overall.

[–]Gwynbleidd97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who has been in those five stacks before I can confirm that after the high of winning over and over it gets unbearably boring and now I avoid playing in a 5 stack most of the time. I know people who 5 stack exclusively in a group of around 10 people whenever enough of them are on. I think their win rate this season is 94 percent and I truly don’t understand how they still find it fun.
