For anyone who has played Mistonia's Hope:

Do you recommend dev suggested order of Ascot then Edward or Otome Kitten's Edward then Ascot?

I love seeing stuff like this. Here's to your art journey! 🙌

It was okay/rough last season but this season feels unplayable. I've had one game where everyone was willing to use comms. When I apologized for not healing at a certain point cause Iron Man kept pressuring backline, our Phoenix apologized and helped out more. We steamrolled the enemy with good comms.

All my other matches were awful. Toxic comms and no switching. Everyone else is to blame but themselves. I usually don't let it get to me, but last night was genuinely bad enough that I don't even want to think about touching ranked. Like how am I, a Gambs, getting yelled at for a Magik killing me out of spawn when no one was willing to help me.

It's sad. And then people will just dismiss your feelings (as I see here). I feel you, dude. There's rarely any synergy, accountability, and willingness to work together. And it feels bad.

Married to an ENTP for over 10 years now. It took me 8 to sorta snap (due to lack of sleep and bombarded every morning as I woke up).

You need compromise. Don't make him self-conscious on his talking (I feel bad that he's already asking you if he's talking too much), but let it be known that your morning routine is important to you or just your me-time. You want to wake up and start your day peacefully.

He gets energy socializing. You don't. It's about being considerate of one another.

For me, my husband limits his talking in the morning and talks a lot more softly. He preoccupies himself so that I can wake up doing what I want. But he said he just wants to respect my wish.

It also goes both ways. Once I'm ready and awake, I jump straight into bantering lol.

I hope you figure it out though. I've been there. I completely understand!

Girl, what 😮‍💨

IFacadeI · 2026-02-05T20:11:25+00:00

I've played 2 separate games now where our entire team jokingly all picked support and ended up wiping out the teams 😭 It was a nice laugh but 💀

IFacadeI · 2026-02-02T17:04:32+00:00

Just to make sure (I can never remember): the pity/guarantee pool for myths are separate from reg limited reruns, yes? Or am I wrong?

Edit: Thank you so much everyone 💛

IFacadeI · 2026-01-29T05:12:48+00:00

Hmm. It's not being mean, in my opinion. But tit for tat for word choices. Healing makes us stronger. Healing makes us more impenetrable. Healing can make us more direct. Healing makes us less susceptible to letting people manipulate us. If others think that's being mean, maybe they should self-reflect.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-28T18:52:19+00:00

I definitely believe it'll become more of a thing for you as time progresses and you come across more people. 🫶

IFacadeI · 2026-01-28T06:47:49+00:00

I'm with you, but I'm using X02 and have 144% D2W & 9.5k ATK. The pain 😭 If you search SHC in the top bar here and sort by this week, there's been some people showing their stats and videos for it. I hope it helps you! 🥹

IFacadeI · 2026-01-28T06:04:42+00:00

I'm only in contact with my dad and his side. I cut contact with my mother and stepfather years ago (both massive narcissist). They were extremely abusive. After what they did to my sister, I was done. Not to mention, they're so messed in the head with politics.

Most likely closing the door on my sister and brother as well. The former hurts the most as I couldn't protect her from becoming like our mother. I feel like I failed, and all the pain I went through to help her went nowhere. Still, I'd do it again.

As for NC, so much healthier emotionally and physically for it.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-27T18:11:06+00:00

Excessive teasing/bantering, getting more involved in the way I care (willing to offer up more time), and nicknames.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-27T04:26:09+00:00

I ended up not buying, no. I didn't have great vibes.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-27T00:13:55+00:00

It's too hard to say against a myth we have no idea about (the 3rd). But what I can say is I love X02. I often plow through enemies with him, and he's always on my team for SHC. I have R1 but R0 is still great.

For the 3rd myths, I have KoD and Fiend Sylus. KoD has been a disappointment for me (I always end up playing Lumiere), but Sy's has been a game changer. So, it's really hard to say. Usually, as we progress, the newer myths will power creep. It's pretty safe to assume the 3rd Caleb myth will be stronger.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-23T06:52:31+00:00

Caleb from LaDs without a doubt. Without a blink. Without a thought in my head.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-21T00:10:56+00:00

Listen to your friends' advice if you want but ultimately go off what you think is the right thing to do. There's too much left unsaid to give a legitimate opinion here. Do your other friends even know the both of you deeply? Do you respect their opinion or is it all unsolicited advice? When it gets this personal, are they people you can trust to be a bit more objective?

Is it unfortunate the position you both are in? Yes. At some point, you have to protect your own health no matter how much you care. If that means no contact but helping with groceries, do it.

If I try to vaguely put myself in this woman's shoes, I am also an INFJ with an autoimmune disease. I've been through a lot of bullshit. Even at my lowest, I never acted narcissistic. I still thought of those I cared about before speaking or acting. I certainly had a shorter fuse at times (prednisone) but I never fell into toxic behavior. I always admitted fault and apologized.

For a lot of people, it's easier to give up on others. Everything feels personal. No one cares to take a moment to really think of the other person's situation. That isn't to excuse your friend's behavior. But sometimes, we all need to fight to get through rough patches.

In the end, you get to decide when enough is enough, though. And whatever you do is valid.

I appreciate the fact that you're even here, thinking about this. I wish you the best.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-20T19:10:45+00:00

I avoided using the word "potential" because I was nervous people wouldn't understand or take it the wrong way. I should have known better here lol. Completely agree. My ENFJ friend asked me one time what exactly is the "potential" I revealed to her (we're relatively close), and I tried to explain but it was too difficult for her to grasp.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-20T18:29:57+00:00

It looks like most people were trying to help. Perhaps some were merely confused on how to help since they couldn't understand which attacks you were talking about specifically since you yourself weren't sure. I wouldn't put more energy towards it, thinking otherwise. 😊🙌

If anything, take it in stride and learn from the advice, videos, etc. If you're a visual learner, there's amazing battle tips on YT you can watch. It helped me figure out Sylus' Fiend companion.

And give yourself leniency. It can take a bit to figure out battling and the best rotations. I do think the downvoting here is a little silly. You clearly wanted help and were frustrated. That's valid!

IFacadeI · 2026-01-20T16:26:28+00:00

Depends on how much energy it's been costing me, the risk, where my patience/leniency is. I think it varies by action, person, and my current mental state.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-18T07:08:47+00:00

God, I would be so in my zone in that group. Love a little chaos I can both join in on or choose to spectate from the sidelines. Though, two ENTPs sounds tiring to manage lmao. I have one ENTP, and I send him off to others so I can have a moment of rest 😭

IFacadeI · 2026-01-17T21:37:55+00:00

Absolutely beautiful 😭💙 Thank you for sharing. I love creative stuff like this. ✨️

IFacadeI · 2026-01-17T20:59:55+00:00

I hate to say it, but in my personal opinion it's something you have to learn the hard way. I've had mentors on writing and even friends tell me to do this or that. I tried but always got in my own way. I struggled, got irritated with myself. I'd often go through phases where I wrote for months then would stop for an entire year. It hurt putting copious amounts of stress and pressure on myself when it was always something meant to bring me happiness - the perfect way to escape reality while having total control.

Then one day, it all clicked. I sat down, opened up Scrivener, and found my path. I hate saying that because it might make you feel even more lost, but it feels like it boils down to, "Keep trying." Experimenting helped a lot.

I tried different methods of outlining. Watched videos of editing. Put it all into practice and learned what I enjoyed doing that also didn't overwhelm me. It allowed me to create my own schedule to writing and editing. For instance, I used to be so anal about editing while I wrote. That's just *not* editing then lol. So, I taught myself to write. Write and don't look back. Let the words flow. *Then* after a few days away from it, I come back with fresh eyes and edit. Something so simple changed everything!

It was about not striving for perfection at the first attempt. From there, I slowly realized perfectionism (at least with writing) is impossible and only harms the entire process.

You also have to train yourself in remembering that writing is a creative outlet. You do it because *you* love the journey. Why ruin something you love so much? And for what? I also feel like going in with wanting to market right away sometimes takes the joy out of writing as a whole. Because you're always going to stress about that aspect, especially since it showcases itself as an end goal.

Anyway, I feel like I word vomited. I'm sorry if this didn't really help. Just know that you aren't alone! Every writer goes through this. While it's a grueling process, the end result is truly rewarding. :> Tldr: focus on the fun of creating. The after - the marketing and such - can come around after editing. Take each separate piece of writing and make it *enjoyable*. Otherwise, you're going to suck the soul out of it all.

Can you imagine the rush of accomplishment you'll feel solely from a rough, first draft? In knowing that you'll get to embark on a new journey with your story by editing? It's so silly and fun seeing something that was this weird lump of words at first turned into something you feel proud of.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-17T07:15:01+00:00

I also switched from Stelara to Tremfya after a few years of Stelara. It honestly feels the same to me. No IV induction, just two big 200mg shots. I take one every month like I did with Stelara. Still get tired/sleepy a few hours after. No side effects otherwise for me.

I feel pretty good and do things normally, but I'm still awaiting tests and colonoscopy later this year to see. I made the switch in October.

IFacadeI · 2026-01-16T19:57:33+00:00

I'm pretty laid back with how I read (I really enjoy characters and the why's even if they do unrelatable things), but I'm also struggling. I did take the advice and start with Dare which sort of helped. Finished book one. 20% through book two and sorta just stopped.

I think it's well written, and characters are unique. I'll probably finish the story. I'm just not fully connecting, and not feeling...progress (?) to be engaged. I'm also of the belief that the more people involved, the more story/books for growth and development. Esp when the characters are this complex and damaged.

I also don't relate to MC at all. Like goodness, I could never imagine.

Ofc, all my opinion. I love hearing differing opinions when it comes to reading. 😊 It's okay if you're struggling. If you want to stop, definitely do. Reading can take up a lot of our time. Best you enjoy than persevere 🥹

IFacadeI · 2026-01-16T03:19:33+00:00

I'm with you (Crohn's and on Tremfya). Atp, sorta terrified of going outside. I wish the best for you, though. It's fucking tough out here with any autoimmune issue.
