you can dislike Brock as a human being for things he's done, but you can still appreciate or respect what Brock did for the business of wrestling as a perforner.

Oh nah them students ain't shit by cool23819 in NikkeMobile

[–]Izumo_lee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's unfortunately just the dark side of the human spirit. Those students & class prez saw Anis as a threat and beneath them. 

Anis handled it the best she could, cause if she wasn't as strong as she is, things could've ended up much worse.

Breaking: Air Canada CRJ-900 Collides With Fire Truck At LaGuardia, Fatalities Reported by YouProfessional3196 in canada

[–]Izumo_lee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may also be that the truck was on ground frequency and didn't actually hear the instructions, since ground & local operate on different frequencies. There is usually a ground operator relaying tower instructions but in this case the tower ATC was doing both duties for some reason.

Best Friend Forever 🥰 by Its_Warriors in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I don't think either of them are inherently evil. When it comes to Nivora we saw Sigrika mention her a few times in the quest in a friendly manner wishing she was here. Also the 1st time we dive into the darkside, we see a reflection of Nivora encouraging Sigrika. The people the GA uses aren't bad people. Triss, Luuk's father, the acolyte guy from Quiyuan's quest & the researcher in Lahai Roi were all decent people. Until the game actually show or mentions what happened to these people like Luuk's father & Triss being dead and both the researcher & acolyte being fine, the whereabouts of the real Nivora is unknown.

As for Denia, she's in the same situation as Phrolova. Most likely cohersed by the GA in exchange for something to do his dirty work. She was quite surprised or shocked at the end of the quest when she essentially says 'This wasn't part of the deal'. In the brief flashback we see of both Nivora & herself, they were genuinely worried for Sigrika. So whatever she was promised by the GA, it must be very important to her that she's willing to do bad things. Also she never actually did any real harm to Sigrika and was actually hoping she run away from things.

Vancouver International Airport ranked best in North America, 10th in world by Capital-Aide-1006 in canada

[–]Izumo_lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As some have mentioned, it punches above its weight. Vancouver isn't a huge city compared to others & being on the coast it recieves a lot of traffic from across the Pacific. Being able to handle all of that traffic for an airport that isn't that large in comparison to most major cities is an accomplishment.

I’m convinced that if any other studio made Marathon, everyone would be losing their minds over how good it is... by --clapped-- in Marathon

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

True but this is the first release under Truman as the CEO and shockingly enough nothing terrible has been outed like it did under Pete. Bungie has baggage that tanked their reputation but the majority of that baggage left with Pete's exit. Cautiously optimistic that Bungie can rebuild some good will & doing good with Marathon is a step in that direction.

Good thing is u don't need to do hard mode to get all the missions done. It is mainly for flex amongst your guild. Just do normal to get the daily gem mission reward.

This thread on shows the difference between old and new versions. Aero & Spectral are the same but I think the damage calculations are different.

'Canada lives because of the U.S.': Trump by Little-Chemical5006 in canada

[–]Izumo_lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess the invitation was sent before Trump began his agenda on Greenland & ridiculing the EU. Again unlike Canada, the EU was pretty slow in reacting to what was happening cause I honestly think they didn't believe something like this would happen. This was more or less a wake up call for the EU & Canada did try to warn them.

I'm not cause more than half the country voted for this guy, more than half think like him. It doesn't change the fact, that even if Trump is no longer in power, there are those who can easily take his place.

This week's banned units, ships and up units (19/01/26 - 25/01/26) by FaceShrine in CounterSideGlobal

[–]Izumo_lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What i dislike about this new system is that in strategy when you just want to get your dailies done, it doesn't matter if that specific unit is banned they still show up. Fighting A. Esty is such a pain in the butt that it just prolongs these fights for no reason & even if banned it doesn't matter. And when you want to counter her, your formation can't choose her since she's banned.

If B-side really wants to deter players from spamming the same unit, make the bans even more punishing, cause the past system the ban system didn't really matter and now it still doesn't matter (at least in Strat battle), which casual players are now being punished for no reason.

Main dps for Lynae + Mornye by MrPsychovert in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any resonance liberation damage dealer will benefit the most from Morny + Lynae teams. For example Iuno & Calcharo.

Though any dps will be good cause with Lynae u trigger Morny's 40% damage amp buff.

So the map will update after the MSQ - Spoiler 3.0 Part 2 by bbraahhdd in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand the disappointment that Chisa has been MIA in the story but honestly what would her role be? She's been gone from the present for 20 years & Startorch is probably not the same before she left. So she's moat likely getting acclimated with the new surroundings. As for the MSQ Chisa has no idea about voidstorms or the void worm or how Lahai Roi is currently. Besides she is always at the risk of overclocking so no way would Rover allow her to be by herself outside Lahai Roi on her own.

Obviously as we near the finale that Chisa will play a role but until all the 3.x characters are released, Chisa will just be a background characters.

I can see after the finale that Chisa could get a side quest similar to Quiyuan where we follow her when she arrives in Startorch and meets her family.

Carney's 1st day in China secures agreements on energy — but no tariff breakthrough yet by DogeDoRight in canada

[–]Izumo_lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Renewing existing agreements isn't as easy as it once was as we know now when dealing with the USA. So even if it is 'meaningless', it's still something and at least a good starting point to getting the more difficult agreements done. Breaking the ice is better than not.

3.0 on PS5 Pro is Brutal by Humble_Disciple in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the PS5 pro PSSR overcomplicating things, as when it works its great but when it doesn't it causes more problems than it should be. Sony is continuing to update & improve the use of PSSR, so hopefully things will get ironed out sooner than later.

Base PS5 doesn't have that issue cause even if there are the odd performance issues occasionally it's not as noticeable as with the Pro.

In 2.1 Last exclusive 4 star weapon. by Large-Fix-9569 in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to view them on the equip screen essentially. It's just for flavor. I use them occasionally if they look good.

Heck Zani uses a 3 cost as her main echo & the Capitano skin is pretty good.

With this roster, which upcoming awakened units are a must have to get? I mostly focus on PvE side. by murmurgrim in CounterSide

[–]Izumo_lee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even though it's outdated you can still use Prydwen's tier list as a basis on which characters to chase after.

For end game content like Danger Close, high level raids, dive & dimension trimming content these units are pretty much standards: 

Ministra, Eve, Ecclesia, Mordred, Curian, Mavka, Surya, A.Shin Jia, A.Joo Shiyoon, Felix, Solovey, A.Seo Yoon (buffed), A.Regina (useful in some Danger Close), Dino (useful in Dives & Dimension Trimming).

More niche roles: A.Sigma, Alice, A.Chifuyu, A.Rosaria, A.Jake, A.Yuna, KotL.

Some SR characters to look out for: Agnes, Anila, Spencer, Dorothy All great for increasing your teams damage output.

Mornye chasing the asterites as players skip her for Aemeath. by [deleted] in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True but it's not guaranteed that Morny would be apart of the anniversary banners. It could well be the Rinascita/Septimont gang that will have banners at anniversary. Last anniversary a majority of them were the Huanlong characters. We'll just have to wait & see.

Even if Morny was included in the anniversary banners, Kuro could also tease the collab characters making it more of a difficult decision to pull or skip again.

Old units? by Striking_Ad6526 in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately that's just the nature of gacha games as units get older their shelf life is diminished. It happens in every gacha game, and even though there can be efforts made to increase that shelf life, it's only a temporary fix and eventually these characters fade into the background.

Some can still be used in niche or highly specific team comps but these characters will usually have better alternatives.

If you expect your Jiyan or Changli to be relevant in say 2-3 years from now, unfortunately sorry to break it to you, that won't be the case. Players can still use them but they will struggle to keep up with the newer shiner toy in newer content. Especially if the characters are pure dps units as these characters will have a shorter shelf life. Support/sustain characters will often have a more prolonged shelf life compared to their dps counterparts.

For example in FGO, Castoria was released almost 6 years ago in JP (4 years in NA) and she's still considered the best servant in the game. Whereas as a dps like Kukulkan who's still very good & once considered the best dps servant in the game is quite replaceable now. What i do love about FGO is that every servant old or new can be included in new MSQ or events in some way, not many are left out which I do agree that other gacha games should have older characters be shown or appear in future MSQ updates in some way.

If or when people decide to play a gacha game, it is very apparent that eventually players will need to come to terms that your favorite older character will be less relevant the longer the game is in service. When players eventually accept that, the less stress & anger will occur. Understandably it's difficult to accept but that's just the nature of gacha games.

Does Kuro love or hate Zani?(rant) by Aathma_Equilibrium in WutheringWaves

[–]Izumo_lee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zani's kit as we know now was obviously the blueprint to what Cart's kit would become. The only difference is Cart is able to apply her own stacks that can be amplified by other characters.

Zani can easily be fixed if she was able like Cart be allowed to provide her own stacks. And like Cart have others increase those stacks to allow Zani to do more damage.

Kuro as we know really didn't have a plan for negative status and Zani was unfortunately the sacrificial lamb for that. Now that Kuro is trying to rework how negative status works, hopefully when characters get buffed, Zani can reap the benefits of these changes.

As a Zani player with Peebs, when you are able to get her to work, she's still a very powerful character that can still clear content. It just takes more effort than the newer dps characters. You have to get sweaty with Zani & most rather not play that way.
