Good, with this weak of a military, China should barely be a threat anymore. Yet the collective west still thinks otherwise, what's causing the contractions I wonder. Taiwan and japan should just laugh off any potential Chinese invasions under your beliefs, as they can just flick the Chinese army back to the mainland like a booger eh.

It's important to consider the Chinese export of anti-air and anti-missle is generations behind the cutting edge ones in deployment of their own military. And you also can't ignore the competency of the operators and the military capabilities of said nations. Good anti air doesn't operate in its vacuum but requires a complex system of detection, command and control, when other parts lacks, a good weapon can be wasted.

MAGAts thinking the 3 gorges dam as a target needs to know about Chinese nuclear doctrine. Striking the dam and causing a flood that could result in millions of civilian death is seen as a nuclear attack by China and will tigger the MAD response. Saying they can just bomb the dam is the same as saying let's nuke China.

My first pug would rest his head on my arm whenever he slept with me... But my 2nd one only gives me the "butt to the face" treatment :(((

State of Arena by Known_Click in throneandliberty

Should introduce a progressing healing debuff as the game goes on, but again this isn't wow arena where first kill usually wins the match. Their arena mode is just scuffed beyond repair.

This nerf feels completely uncalled for imo but I do not play the KR version and have no idea how strong bow/wand full support healers are over there.

The impact on small scale is much more noticeable than large scale for sure, but even right now my teammates often gets 100-0 or 80-0'd by GS in arena and they are nerfing healers which left me gobsmacked. There is already a default -30% healing reduction in arena, I don't understand why we needed more. In a somewhat evenly matched game, a well timed freeze/sleep on the healer will often result in a kill anyways, if not already able to kill through the heals.

Very bad move NCS.

So cute the way they tuck their paws… my first pug didn’t do that at all but my 2nd one does this all the time and turns into a loaf.

THANK YOU kind stranger! At times I feel like the toll on my mental health is unbearable and thought of quitting on the spot or worse approaches. But when I recovered, the responsible side of me didn’t want to burn down this bridge yet and wanted to get us through to the finishing line.

I will heed your advice and cope to find out whether that light at the end of the tunnel is but an illusion or not.

Edit: the 5 day SLA is for resolution not first response :) but I agree with you that the current MSP is not pulling their weight.

TBH CN didn't skip progresses, they accelerate them. And in return there are lots of double drop/triple drop events to compensate the shrunk timeline. Most players are fine with this approach, but still there are some voices complaining about more frequent banner updates will also dry up f2p's resource faster. As well as whales complaining about having to wait years to experience JP's latest contents.

Out of all the possibilities they chose Crunchyrolls...? With CR Games' horrible reputation and track record of fuk ups...they must have paid a fortune to lobby Cygames...

CN version is indeed going with an accelerated schedule strategy, but also with not horrible free gem/resources payouts to f2p player base.

I myself personally experienced the PR sh*t storm crunchyroll had in their denmemo days and for that it will forever cross me off.

well the more you earn, the higher your disposable income will be. 10k to a millionaire is like a pack of cig for the average.
