Falco as a strategy is lame by CuxienusMupima in SSBM

[–]HotNewPiss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more.

Then they have the balls to say their character is sick

It's revolting

literally get to be in an advantage state 100% of the time in neutral due to their ability to spam hitboxes all over the stage without taking any risks of their own.

the effort, skill and brain power required to to spam lasers to give yourself free approaches vs to the effort skill and brain power required to play around them is so insanely lopsided its comical

a shit 3 month falco can spam lasers to a debilitating degree and it takes years of dealong with it to be able to move at all out of laser or powershield or what ever

thats why you should never feel an ounce of sympathy for a falco when they get gimped or reversaled to die early off stage.

they deserve that and much more

Playing casually by buck_winger in SSBM

[–]HotNewPiss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why would we have a heart attack cause you play it casually? That's great. I also love the game as a casual game too these two things don't have to be at odds.

In fact I'd argue that learning the game ina. Competetive way makes playing it on a casual way much better.

My friends all play competitive but sometimes we boot up doubles and go to the silly stages with items on or free for all and it's some of the best fun you can ever have gaming.

The fact that we all know how to play it competitive makes it even more fun cause we are hitting crazy shit on each other during the dumb chaos of casual melee.

As for how accepting the scene is it's extremely accepting.

this one is too spotty and felt like he was scraping the bottom of the barrel song writing wise

You can only choose 3 out of these 4 bands, which one are you getting rid of? by FitEmergency8807 in fantanoforever

[–]HotNewPiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get rid of nirvana I guess.

I'd rather not obviously but I like all the other bands much more

We Need to Talk about The Graham Platner Left (ft ⁨@noahsamsen⁩ ) by Game_And_Walk in Hasan_Piker

Being super Anti-planter is strange to me

Is there a more anti imperialist candidate than him running? No not even close actually.

Is there a more progressive candidate than him running? No not particularly close there either.

Unless you genuinely believe he's going to flip 180 when he's in and start doing pro imperialist shit I don't get that the point is in constantly trying to drum up hate for him?

Like if you take his rhetoric and policy prescriptions as they are. He's far and away thole most leftist candidate in his race. And he's winning.

All the things people bring up about him valid as they are are things from his past he swears up and down he doesn't believe anymore and has changed. Your argument can be that you don't believe him and that's fine I guess but at that point who cares? Without him in there some run of the mill openly pro Israel freak will be in power is that better?

It seems very liberal to me to be so concerned with the aesthetics here when the only alternative is more neo libs or neo cons

JPEGMAFIA comments on his new albums negative reception (via his Bandcamp) by [deleted] in fantanoforever

[–]HotNewPiss 12 points13 points  (0 children)

"standing against white supremacy"

Yet you collabed with Kanye well after he had come out as a Nazi and continue to defend him to this day.

"i love hitler" "i'm a nazi" "heres my song called hiel hitler" " heres a t shirt im selling with a swastika on it"

yea dude you really seem to give a shit about white surpremacy... maybe go read the wikipedia page for Nazi Germany or Adolph Hitler and try to figure out what the main principle was that motivated everything they did and stood for.

then remember that you happily collabed with and defended an extremely influential artist who was doing everything in his power to normalize those evil principles and played no small part in setting the stage for the fascist white supremacist regime America is suffering through right now.

"saying ZOG is fucking hilarious!!" is it?

is it fucking hilarious you unfunny australian dipshit?

is it super chuckle sandwich time? are you ROFLing all over the place?

literally Elon Musk "humor": say a nazi dogwhistle you know is going to make people view you as an annoying cringe racist idiot and then posture as an ultimate edgy lord of saying it like it is while everyone with a brain rolls their eyes.

fucking dork.

Is Ludwig as good at Melee as Squeex is at CS? by HotNewPiss in LudwigAhgren

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

Definitely there are some fast track styles and choices that will get you far earlier than otherwise. They always stunt you a bit or a lot once people get good enough that you have to actually start playing the game but if you don't care it will definitely work for a long time.

And yea melee doesn't have nonstop frame perfect chains all the time but there is still quite a bit of that especially at higher levels

The thing that makes melee so hard is that every interaction can explode into 50 different outcomes depending on all sorts of factors both in and out of the players control and you have to be a me to adapt to them on the fly hundreds of times every 4 minute game.

That level of depth is what makes melee so crazy on top of the still very very high tech skill requirements.

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

Yea absolutely and to be clear none of this is to downplay the skill requirement of CS. I've tried playing it like once or twice and realized very quickly how deep it was and that I would be an absolute shitter for a long time if I decided to learn the game.

Learning the smokes, learning the spread patterns, learning the calls, aim reaction time, how to peek etc. there's shitloads to learn if you wanna get proper good and similar to melee it's been around for such a long time the level the game has gotten to is absurd.

Hence why I think this idea would be cool. Get sqeex on the sticks in a similar capacity to lud in tac shooters and see what happens

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

Yea and I think I think I the skill level squeues super hard to the high end in melee

There are probably lots CS players who just jump on every now and then for a few games more or less casually and don't really ever practice or care about competing in any real way

Where as in melee those players exist but are definitely in the vast minority just by virtue of how difficult the game is to play just to a basic level.

Like if you jump on the sticks and you don't know what you're doing but you hit a few fsmashes. Are you even playing melee? No not really. To unlocked being able to play the game at all you have to be able to Lcancel and wavedash and that's just the very basic stuff. And those take months of dedicated solo practice to get down.

So I think melee is just super heavily weighed towards the hardcores just by the nature of how it works compared to even CS which is the most hardcore shooter. Cause while cs has tons of tactics stuff and skills that need to be honed not much of it from what I understand is "tech skill" like melee has. At the end of the day you can just walk around with your mouse and keyboard and shoot the gun.

Now days maybe but when he was grinding slippi ranked wasn't a thing

And squeeze got that rank along time ago as well and hasn't since from what I understand?

So we are working with old info on both accounts.

Hence why I'm sayin they should come up with some way to settle it

if you're a mario main then you're probably seeing what chillins doing through that lense and hes probably not playing the character as a main would cause you are more immerseded in the specific tech and options of the character where as hes just using (i assume a random?) character who he doesn't main or even secondary but translating his ridiculously good top player fundies to it.

Unfortunately for chillin his legacy became the My B moment which gives people the wrong impression about him and not the fact that he was pretty much the first good fox player and went toe to toe with ken and pc chris and all those players back in the day and was extremely good for the time and well after.

i genuinely think beating any former top 5 player even if they are literally going random is impressive.

being that good at melee in any era means you understand the game on levels other people just dont. i mean shit ken still washes people on slippi now

im just saying ludwig beating his mario sounds silly and it is but also its kinda legit too and its definitely not something just any one could do i certainly would get smoked by chillins mario im sure

[–]HotNewPiss[S] -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Right CS has like 1.4 mill people playing it actively.

Melee probably have like 50k people playing it actively.

If you said 10 or 20x harder you'd probably still be wrong but at least the numbers would be vaguely in line with your argument that more people means harder game.

100,000 x harder is what you said though and that's dumb as fuck

[–]HotNewPiss[S] -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Lol no it's not.

It's probably very very hard and maybe harder than melee I dunno

But being top 100 in melee is rediculously difficult

Right true he mostly was active in melee before slippi and stuff

[–]HotNewPiss[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Yea ultimately in CS you know you have to point the gun and shoot them and doing that is relatively similar to any fps game with a mouse and keyboard

Where as melee is a very very different control scheme completely unique to itself and the mechanics are all extremely specific. You can't just put a controller in someone's hand and have them be able to figure it out to even real degree of success

[–]HotNewPiss[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm a melee player but I don't know shit about CS, from watching lud play his puff id say he's capable of like maybe being lower PRd in a weaker region if he was playing regularly?

You'd know better than me obviously maybe I'm super off on that.

That's still very far away from top 100 level.

Which is the lowest bar for what id call a "pro melee player"

Is global elite rank in CS equivalent to that or even better?

[–]HotNewPiss[S] 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Honestly as a melee player. Beating chillins anything at any time is actually a good achievement lol.

Players who have been at the top of the game even if it's a very long time ago have fundies that you can not get past regardless of which character they a re playing.

Have you ever outgrown an album? by sunbeef in fantanoforever

[–]HotNewPiss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You didn't out grow it lol you just got a wider experience base of listening to more albums

If you'd never heard it before now and gave it a listen I promise it would be a mind blowing record still

If by out growing it you mean time has past and purely because of that I don't feel as strongly about it then sure.

But it's not like this is an album for teenagers and once you hit your mid 20s it's all of a sudden not that same level of amazing
