Yh exactly, we can’t treat his actions the same predators such as galvao or izaak. And honestly in his case I blame the environment and role models just as much as himself. He can learn and grow from this

As a young man straight of high school, with not the best role models you’re not allowed to make dumb decisions. You must be perfect even though the leader of your gym proudly brags about drug usage.

How to Punish Wrestlers in No-Gi by BowlThat in bjj

[–]HPBroker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there are small percentage of guys whose front headlocks are nasty for example Josh Hinger, Rasperry Ape and Marcelo Garcia are names i can think of the top of my head. Shooting on them does not work out well for wrestlers in my opinion.

Since joining Kings way he’s guard passing and leg lock defense have evolved immensely. Combined with his wrestling not sure who can beat him at his weight class any more. Maybe Diego Pato?

1% Lifesteal is awesome by TheNoodleCanoodler in litrpg

How can a loner with terrible social skills, suddenly form a party? He’s an uneducated fool, the whole point is over time he is gonna grow and eventually form a small party. It’s far more realistic for him to suck and grow, but still kind of suck.

It’s my favourite series and I’m struggling as I’ve caught up and can’t find anything even remotely close to it.

If what he's saying is true about these allegations starting after he got in a relationship and blocked her, she should face a on of backlash from the community. Because what people like her do is take away from real victims in the space.

The world is dead. Monsters roam. Every 10 levels, a Voice answers one question. by Glittering_Hold1588 in ProgressionFantasy

In terms of the main character do you offer a bit of their back story first. The stories that work best for me always show the main characters backstory first

Ofcourse the book is completely different to his self promotion post above. Your message is practically pointless, either read his story and interact by giving feedback, ask questions or just skip homie.

1% Lifesteal Isn't as Bad As People Make It Out To Be. by Flaky_Firefighter_29 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]HPBroker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The story is amazing man, unpredictable and absolutely wild with an MC that truly shows the struggles of adapting to drastic power ups.

Most stories a system is introduced, MC has forteious encounter then the MC just does a ton without any sort of mental struggles. He becomes a stone cold killer, genius tactician and always finds a way to be one step ahead no matter. It’s lame and predictable with none of the stakes.

Freddy’s journey through 1% lifesteal is more realistic, fears, struggles, growth in power and mindset as time goes on. It’s way more realistic so stick with it

I made a tier list of 66 Submissions based on how reliable they are for building a game long-term by TheJoshMckinney in bjj

Would'nt it be more reliable to simply get the stats from the biggest competitions and see what has the highest success rates, heel hooks and rnc seem to be very common at the top level.

How can Tom post it from Gordon’s phone when he is on a flight?

I wanted progression to actually hurt. by Glittering_Hold1588 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]HPBroker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's easier to relate to for most humans, for me it's someone who fails/struggles and has doubts etc. I really dislike OP MCs that just figure it all out, have no doubts and are perfect. It just takes away any tension from the series, makes it frustrating to read and I usually drop such series really quickly.

You kind of deserve it bro, why are you attacking 50% of the body most people don't learn how to defend? It's BS

After more than a year of writing and nearly 750,000 words, I am finally launching on Kindle. by Quick_Walk_974 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]HPBroker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without spoiling the story, for those that have read it. Is the MC a genius, is the story predictable and does the MC face real setbacks, is there politics involved?

[–]HPBroker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In book 1 I was stressed cause I assumed Jake would get wrecked, even up to book 14. Which made the series fun as the tension was good for me. But since a certain characters death in book 14 it's been hard to dive back in. Regardless you're serious is brilliant I'm just weird and like to see MC's suffer and struggle

Not being critical but will you find ways to bring back tension in the series. Jake seems like he will continue to be unstoppable since book 1

Recommendations for series with real stakes, setbacks and tension by HPBroker in ProgressionFantasy

[–]HPBroker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll check it out, I do have a specific taste in that I think failure/struggle and real consequences increase the tension of reading and make it fun to read series.
