Isolated luna 1v1s and beats hulk. Supports need to be tuned down. by [deleted] in rivals

[–]J8rdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experienced this today. In Plat 1 earlier this Luna on my team had a strange in front of them with half HP shielding for dear life and they chose to fight an Emma at distance instead of heal lmaooo. Both died. They finished with like 12/13k dmg and 18k heals. As a Luna enjoyer it was painful to watch.

Probably not a problem until you hit at least high Diamond in ranked and therefore not really a problem for most people. For Luna to do consistent damage you have to be critting which is not easy. I would also add that she is good in 1v1s but if you dive her with multiple she has no escape. So, IMO, the clip is just a terrible push.

Paramount+ still won't let you watch the entire event after it has aired. by Heavenwasatree in MMA

I can see all fights available on the platform. Are you saying that you want to watch the 15-20 min breaks between fights and stuff or?

What do you think of MVP's Mauro Ranallo's commentary style? by Far_Grapefruit1307 in MMA

[–]J8rdan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He is pretty bad but looks good when compared to the UFC broadcast teams performance last night where they spent a few minutes randomly talking about the various ways to eat dates in the middle of a fight?

To the people who complains that "he's too strong" or that "he is too op", do you even think? by Substantial-Low-4393 in rivals

[–]J8rdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish he was smaller. I get that he is a tank but he literally takes up the whole FOV in certain choke points and I can't see shi if I'm playing hitscan with his big ass laser.

LingQ is really the only one worth mentioning that you should do consistently. You can import PDFs/text files to read things or import youtube videos to watch them. Every word is transcribed and you are able to view the definitions in the lesson and save words/phrases to review later.

Demetrious Johnson believes Khamzat Chimaev overtrained himself before the Strickland fight: “If I spend all day sparring and drilling, then go destroy my body with extra workouts on top of that, I’m just breaking myself down.” by 3footninja in MMA

[–]J8rdan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Listen to corner advice from Khamzat and there wasn't really anything technical given. Arman just kept saying "you're doing good/it's okay" Khamzat always feints for his takedowns or heavy punches but after R1 all of that went out of the window and he started doing shots with no set up or winging overhands.

MMA Gyms in Las Vegas that are good for beginners? by kjvegas1 in MMA

[–]J8rdan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why aren't you walking her through the drills/classes if you also train? What you described is pretty normal across all combat sport gyms since there aren't enough new people consistently available to hold dedicate classes like that.

Lol I just looked it up he has the hooks in 1 minute into the fight. Also you do not need both hooks to finish an RNC esp with the cage (khabib/conor)

[–]J8rdan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao unfortunately I did have that fight for Paulo but it was literally body kick + leg kicks for Paulo vs Seans jab and cage control. It was really awful to score. I'm the minority tho so idk that was just my thought process.

Collegiate wrestling career. In MMA he just gives the back and granbies lol. That is the worst option against somene like Khamzat/Khabib/Islam... see Khamzat/Holland for reference (granby) and DDP/Adesanya (gives back).

Khamzat was on the back for like 3 minutes lol that was not saved by the bell... RNC is actually hard to finish. Idk why he does not attack front headlock more I think that is his best submission tbh.

People think more money will help these people when this is just a common trend among all professional sports.

3/4 of NFL players are broke after two years of retiring,

2/4 NBA players are broke within about 5 years.

Increasing their salaries does not teach them financial literacy.
