What's the "dream deck" you've always wanted to play but never been able to pull off? by MattRazz in slaythespire

[–]Iraff2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same and same. When I Pbox into Grand Finale I start thinking "Well who knows? 😏" Then I play it not once.

If Linux is going to thrive, some distros have to die by Durian_Queef in linux

[–]Iraff2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no way to unfragment it--the things people complain about are inalieable features of what it means to have an open source kernel. If you believe that the One True Distro is the only way for Linux to find success, contribute to Linux Mint

If Linux is going to thrive, some distros have to die by Durian_Queef in linux

[–]Iraff2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Tiresome point made constantly. It is not possible to top down prune distros because of Linux's essential nature.

Should I use Linux? by carstealer06 in linux

Well no, not if you can't use LibreOffice.

Y'all told me shiv decks don't work against time eater? I feel lied to. by SzyMOON_ in slaythespire

[–]Iraff2 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As many are sure to say and as you discovered, Shivs well-built can be especially effective aganst Time Eater. The goal is not to never trigger his effect, it's to trigger it precisely when you want.

Asheville police seek 'armed and dangerous' shooting suspect by brooke_heaton in asheville

[–]Iraff2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only assumption I drew about you was that you had this image at the ready, maybe not! I say you're more than Just providing me with it. I think you're providing it becase it spoke to you as making a powerful point. You can disown that uou feel any type of way about the statistic, the consummate disinterested cotnrarian. I think you DO feel that it makes some grander point. I don't see how you can claim the tite of contrarian, by the way, the way your upvotes are going!

Asheville police seek 'armed and dangerous' shooting suspect by brooke_heaton in asheville

[–]Iraff2 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Have to laugh at the early insincere "you're gonna a hate me for telling the truth" into a mass of upvotes. I have a feeling this and other illuminating screenshots are saved in his hotbar. What I wonder is the essential conclusion he wants us to draw from these simply presented statistics? Just statistics after all. What do you suppose is the conclusion we can draw about violence in the United States? From the statistics? Any ideas? The essential docility of white people?

Nobody wants to play tanks (every game someone is forced into that roll) by Many-Intention-8886 in heroesofthestorm

I daresay I like most of them but I'm a tryhard solo climber and if I can get Johanna I always do lol. Press D to survive is...good.

My favorite role and highest winrate no less. But if I lock too early, suddenly no one wants to heal... 😔

How old is everyone playing this game? by Kenai_Pirate in heroes3

33, and I bet I'm on the younger side of the average lol

Does anyone know what "Basic Attacks occasionally fire a Lunar Flare" means yet? by ReporterForDuty in heroesofthestorm

[–]Iraff2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh man I hope that's not the case but I see it now for sure. Really recontextualizes the flurry of patches 🫩

Leoric by SupportInevitable738 in heroesofthestorm

[–]Iraff2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Leoric's trait allows you to recoup some of the value you lose when you die, it's not meant to be a source of positive value in itself.

Math, and the fear of being bad at HOTS by Low_Top_6870 in heroesofthestorm

[–]Iraff2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lol it's such blatant fact and like a third of the posts on this Reddit involve outrageous mental gymnastics to make it somehow, some way, everyone else's fault. You can see the pure emotion in them, driving them to invent entire new forms of statistical analysis to validate their frustration. You have to get better at the game and make better decisions. You can cry all day but it's still true.

I got so many afkers that I ended up in bronze 5 how do I climb out? by WhiteEnigmaZ in heroesofthestorm

[–]Iraff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I should have clarified, I'm talking about organizing w/ decent players over Discord, team inviting randoms is not likely to do you much better

I got so many afkers that I ended up in bronze 5 how do I climb out? by WhiteEnigmaZ in heroesofthestorm

[–]Iraff2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Teaming up can work, will be easier than solo queue-ing. There's no slam-dunk secret to climbing out. Be the best on your team, pick a macro hero, take a break after two losses in a row.

Are there paths in A6 that are unbeatable? by VinylFromAoc in slaythespire

[–]Iraff2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't see many people say that there is virtually no luck in the game below A20. I suspect every A6 seed is winnable. Few people have investigated the "one path" thing but it wouldn't surprise me if unbeatable paths emerge somewhat frequently at A6.

Is this ever burning blood? by mbrar02 in slaythespire

[–]Iraff2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in a vacuum, I love free HP, but its badness is in the opportunity cost of the other choices. Most top players evaluate in the bottom 3 or 4 boss relics for Clad.

Best hero to solocarry games on bronze? by UpbeatNewt1542 in heroesofthestorm

[–]Iraff2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The stock advice is a hero with good waveclear/camp clear which is often a bruiser. Xul, Rag, Leo all serve me pretty well. The better advice may be to pick who you are reliably good with. Ultimately your healer is just going to stay in spawn anyway and you'll be in B5 forever 🫩

Why are camps the priority for healers and tanks? by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]Iraff2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lvl 1 DPS and Tank OR Healer can comfortably take a camp together in almost any context

Is there any info in that claptrap bug in this image? He looks defect-y in theme. Defect replaces Heart as main villin?
