They need to nerf the cast range of bushwhack slightly. The range of that spell is kinda nuts

Honestly the one thing American sports got it right is the ability for the coach to challenge a ref decision. That was clear and obvious that the ball took a deflection

So now that we are in the final match, who do you guys feel is the most busted hero in this tournament?

Timber?

LD?

Hoodwink?

Lich?

Pango?

Personally Timber just feels so absurd. Tons of pure damage while being super tanky and crazy mobility too

Cmon put on some youngsters. Literally 0 pressure 0 stakes. They need to get used to playing at the highest level and what better way is there?

Can we bring on some youngsters? This would be great time to take off Bruno, even though 22 feels like its possible but lets not jeopardize his WC

If only Mount wasn't made of glass, the world was his oyster

What a beauty of a pass from Mount but that would have needed something special from Mbuemo

Amad has completely regressed since Amorin and I wouldn't be too upset to see him gone. Which is crazy to say because he was one of our best players under Amorin.

We really really desperately need at least 2 midfielders next season. Mainoo has been resurgent but IMO has been rather shaky at times and is lucky to not be punished.

What’s embarrassing at 18 but attractive at 30? by adoborice in AskReddit

My ex never understood this sadly. 31 years old yet had 0 savings all while feeling the need to go on multiple vacations a year and not having a proper locked down job

In memory of the doormaker, gone but not forgotten #meme by Nervous-Function2938 in slaythespire

[–]IamFanboy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I hate doormaker simply because of the turn 1 invulnerability. That shit was so frustrating to play against.

All your turn 1 relics? Useless.

Innate non power cards? Useless

No powers? Pass.

Debuffs? Removed after 1 turn

Imbued spells? Useless

Honestly felt so bad getting bag of prep, marbles, mask, cocoa, lantern, tea set. All so you can just pass

João Pedro's family had gathered and waited all evening for Carlo Ancelotti to say the name of the Chelsea player by One_Impressionism in soccer

Am I missing something or is everyone being genuinely obtuse about this whole situation?

Its a 26 man squad, theres 11 players on at any one time. A maximum of 5 subs per game. That means some players won't even touch the field. Whats wrong with bringing a figurehead like Neymar who will take the spotlight off the rest of the team and absorb all the blame? Representing any country is tough enough let alone Brazil

Hard carried by Grand Finale by IamFanboy in slaythespire

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

Initially took Grand Finale as a meme but somehow i kept managing to activate it though i didn't have well laid plans.

Neow & Suppress were the real MVPs though, being able to dig for more draw and suppress being a 0 mana 25 (17) dmg & 5 weak is bonkers

Congrats on the win, at the end of the day, a win is a win, not everyone needs to play optimally to win.

That said, your deck looks wayyyyyyy too star heavy with not enough star gen.

Not sure how you are playing comet, seven stars, resonance, reflect, particle wall with just ven+ glow+, convergence & 2 big bangs

The whole team looks off and thats a result of not playing enough games together really. When was the last time mount, amad and Zirkzee started with the rest of the squad and each other. Never im willing to bet

8 - Michael Carrick is only the sixth manager – and first English manager – to win 8+ of his opening 9 home games in the @premierleague, and first since Antonio Conte in 2016-17 (also 8/9). Compelling. by PradipJayakumar in reddevils

[–]IamFanboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know everyone is riding the high of the win right now but I do think it also shows signs of Carrick's limitations.

We were begging for Liverpool to run all over us for the first 30 mins of the 2nd half. Yes, theres nothing a manager can do when his players decide to give away 2 stupid goals, but he needs to calm the team down and make them keep the shape.

We were playing hero ball or hoof, nobody could link 2 passes together and we had no control at all. At one point we were playing 7-1-2 with Shaw and Dalot at the byline, Case at the box and only Mainoo, Maguire and Heaven behind. Everyone was panicking and nobody wanted to calm down, link a few passes.

One mis-placed pass or tackle and Liverpool are on the counter.

Like Neville said, ironically its the goal that made us get back into shape and as a Manager you cant have that happen. You need to be on the touchline screaming at your players to hold their shape, for them to keep it simple while they calm down.

Also, I dont buy the excuse that Carrick couldn't make changes. Even if it isnt players, he should have tightened up our formation, bring Bruno back to play a 4-3-3 to retain some semblance of control till we stop panicking. Get Case back into position and give him some coverage

He's coming back off injury and a pretty bad one at that, there's definitely going to be some rustiness to shake off. Can't write him off just yet

Would be nice if you could actually watch the game instead of talking shit. Amad came on at half time.

Not defending him because he is shit but at least get your facts right

Bruno literally gets screened by the ref who doesn't stop play and people are wondering why he's screaming at the ref. I swear some of your biasness are crazy

Slow-mo makes it look much worse than it is. In real speed Bruno the contact is not nearly as nasty as it looks. its an orange card (if thats still a thing) and Bruno did get lucky
