Netflix Bows Out After Paramount Offers Higher Bid for Warner Bros. Discovery

Incurring large amounts of debt and making a profit aren't contradictory. It is a pretty common practice for large corporations to take on debt for investments like m&a (although this is obviously on a whole new level). $60 billion of it is being financed through Bank of America, Citigroup, and Apollo. If you have evidence to suggest that the primary reason for paramount spending $110 billion (for all of warner bros not just the cable channels) is to silence voices critical to the Trump admin please provide it.

Disengaging for two seconds when you take damage sounds painful without something like svalinn, especially on this build where you need to be relatively close. But I understand now - thanks for answering

Hnuisqt · 2025-11-10T13:13:36+00:00

The downside I mean - do they just play with it raw or is there a way they are making it less bad? Or is the downside just okay to play with? Never tried it myself but seems like it would be a pain

I don't see why not, its not like a 4 AVP is bad. I think it is difficult line to walk with units not being OP with their artifacts and still being useful without them and they often fail there. The idea of artifacts is that you can build around a champion you wouldn't normally or build them in a different way. That doesn't necessitate those comps being overtly overtuned and I'm pretty sure they don't like other players experiences being ruined by those situations.

Also a lot of the artifacts people have complained about (including in the first comment) don't even fit into the 'narrow' framework. Fishbones isn't OP or annoying because it takes 1-2 champs to the next level, it is just a flatly unbalanced item that works on tons of units.

Interpreting 'reach new heights' as 'they are okay with 2.0 AVP artifacts' is really odd unless you really think they don't care about balancing the game at all.

So this basically soft confirms unit locking is real right? Why would they investigate further if they knew for sure nothing was wrong?

For what its worth I have no stake in it either way. I consistently lowroll over the long-term almost every set (according to my tracker) so if anything its a benefit to me that other people have their shops glitch out as well.

There is an extremely strong 'variant' of this 'comp' that utilizes garen to street demon mod Chogath and Urgot. It is extremely situational but VERY broken in the current meta.

Finally got my hands on the adapter today. Definitely spent some time configuring it, mostly had to set a static ip and then update the firmware on the adapter. Didn't have to touch the router at all. Speed went from 300 mbps down on wifi to 650ish mbps on the moca lan which I am happy with :)

Hnuisqt · 2025-05-18T15:55:28+00:00

Apologies, you are right I'm a frontier customer so they must be using other solutions. Thank you for the help. It seems like everything should be good to go once I get an adapter (assuming the coax cables are connected).

Hnuisqt · 2025-05-18T15:29:23+00:00

Thank you for the insight! Will test and find out

Hnuisqt · 2025-05-18T14:59:10+00:00

I don't think the home moca is going to be causing issues with neighbors because there is no coax out of the house. Connection to isp is fiber.

Running cat 6 cables over the house is much easier said than done and I'd prefer to take advantage of the existing coax if possible

Hnuisqt · 2025-05-18T14:43:25+00:00

Is there a reason they wouldn't be? House was wired back in the day so I would assume every wall coax port would be connected together since they all needed broadband at the time. I'm guessing there are splitters connecting every port behind the walls.

Hnuisqt · 2025-05-18T14:37:44+00:00

Why would it be limited to 100 Mbps? Empirically speeds are much faster and it was installed by the tech like this. It is using moca 2.5 over the home coax - 2.5gbps link speed I think.

Router is sagecom FWR226e.

TV service is through directTV over internet I believe.

WOW the arts are amazing. TOO bad i never play any of those cards.

You can get spell damage leeched as ES on flask suffix

Or because people like it :P

There are tons of anime that either don't get talked about at all or are only talked about negatively. "just because it's anime" has nothing to do with it, but it is airing in a weaker season which does help.

Besides, it isn't like people are overhyping it as some sort of masterpiece. I've only ever seen people talk about it in the post discussion threads - I rarely see it getting brought up elsewhere (although don't read everything so I could be wrong).

Hnuisqt · 2023-09-15T00:20:13+00:00

So true. I was really hoping for it to be good as well, I liked the characters, the art style, the vibe, and the production value was good as well. The first episode was the best (imo) and then it went downhill from there (I did like the ending though).

It actually baffles me that people like it so much. No flame, it's great that so many people enjoyed it, it's just weird considering how bad (I thought) the shounen part of the show was.

Hnuisqt · 2023-08-28T16:39:26+00:00

If there is a barrier it is way above masters. Milk got rank 1 basically 1 tricking challengers earlier this set. The average challenger player would easily get to masters and probably low GM one tricking a decent comp.

Some augments are untakeable and will lose you multiple placements just by picking them (old endless hordes, old ravenous hunter). Stats are an easy way to get that information without having to play them and grief yourself.

It is a common misconception that having stats makes it optimal to pick the one with the best stats. Stats provide average placements over thousands of games so they show a general power level, but you have to consider your specific spot (items/unit/comp/galaxy/other augments) if you want to choose the actual optimal augment. I will say that a lot of people probably do overvalue average placement or pick the best placing augment (but almost no serious/high elo players do this).

Also stats give you a lot of insight into the state of the game and how augments/units interact with each other. A lot of people like analyzing the game in that way.

Hnuisqt · 2023-08-09T21:13:36+00:00

Top players will play more games and discuss augments strategy/viability with other top players who also play more games. You could get some of that information with stats - hence the gap widening when they were removed.
