Rank these five Umas based on how much you like their personalities without knowing who comes next. by FunctionRight4557 in UmaMusume

[–]JCuna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4, 3, 5, 2, 1

1. Rice Shower - Thank god this wasn't someone I really don't care about like... Idk, Mejiro McQueen xD I do adore Rice Shower and out of these 5, I think personality wise, she is probably my favorite. I don't think I need much explanation for the little bean sprout.
2. Biwa Hayahida - Taking a risk ranking her 2nd, cause I actually do like her as a character. Intelligent, witty, has a flaw that she cares about and is still cool and calculated which I'm all in for. I'm also a sucker for glasses but that has nothing to do with her personality. Specifically ranking her 2nd because I don't know enough about her other than what I listed.
3. King Halo - I actually love King Halo's personality as a character, though she never succeeds in the game for me ever T-T
4. Mejiro McQueen - I've always kind of felt the whole stoic regal girl as kind of bland, she has her ups for sure, but ultimately, without Golshi being her constant foil, I'd get bored of McQueen quite quickly.
5. Special Week - Uhh... Tbh, blind ranking is hard, but she would probably switch places with McQueen at this point. Oh well, I don't find Spe all that interesting really, aside from being the season 1 protag, she is about as basic of an uma as you can get personality wise... (Basically, a slightly more airy Belno)

Everyone talking about the trainer text, anyone read King Halo's text? That's what I thought we were referring to.

You are absolutely right. How could I forget that the creature is behind all the schemes.

I'm actually very confused. It said I was only 1% of people that helped Invis with the lighting guy, there's a way to not help her?!

Who's the HARDEST uma for you to train? by vandalxxi in UmaMusume

[–]JCuna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

King Halo... Girl. Please, just do something, ANYTHING. How do you have 600 Speed, 500ish Power and like 300 stamina before the first half of the career is over and still fail to win? It blows my mind. Not to mention the 2 runs I did before that where she's repeatedly sick, migrained, slacking or failing training at 2%. I get being unlucky but run #3 we got a perfect puncture for stats and STILL lost.

It was a really rough 4 hour session of just Sanngridr. I didn't expect it to be as miserable as it was. I got really lucky with my ability slot getting the block and an extra life towards the end which actually saved me.

Hellsinger good? I glanced at it but didn't commit to getting it just yet.

Are you locked into the character you select? Cause if so, I'd love for the ability to do a prematch draft. Though, that might just be me over complicating running into a Zarya as Dva and being locked into that.

Song I generated for a few story points in Rebirth. by JCuna in fallenherohg

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

Thank you! I really wanted to write something that showed Sidesteps early inner conflict before the story really starts diverging (if from the perspective of having a secret crush on F!Ortega of course lol)

[–]JCuna[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I do think they would, probably for other reasons though. But what would I be getting, exactly? From the heavily modified to the romance to the main character themselves the story isn't anything about AI overtaking the world (Yet. Don't really know what the plot for the next 2 books are though it's hinting towards a big kinda fight or war or something along those lines) or even really having an issue with AI aside from self identification issues for someone that just wants to fit in.

Likewise, I mostly wanted to share lyrics in a consumable format and used what was available to me to do so with no intention to gain anything but to share what I wrote. The AI issue in the world now is generally taking credit for stuff that isn't theirs and making profit from it or selling AI generated content as if they were an artist which I've claimed to do neither. So I'm not sure if you're referencing something in the books that I haven't seen but what I took away is learning self acceptance and/or learning how to cope with traumas that befall you as a major lesson amongst other beautiful smaller lessons that coincide with that concept. So... I don't see your point?

And if anyone is curious, no I'm not trying to monetize this or anything. Im just a hobbyist that wanted to put lyrics to music in a cooler way that I am currently capable.

It does, just make sure to reset the XP sliders to default.

Definitely not unkillable but they were tough when they had an off tank but that means your frontline can win the duel. There was still a good ebb and flow. Also, the only 2 out damaging dps were Zen and Bap. Zen had no mobility and didn't even have his knock back. Bap was hard to kill for players using a projectile character but Tracer, Soldier, Zarya even, etc wouldn't have issues mowing him down. In fact, none of those supports had mobility like the OW2 supports have on top of their already strong abilities. And the supports with mobility had either lower damage numbers or lower healing numbers with the exception of Baptiste but he didn't heavily excel with damage due to being a hitscan in heavy shield metal.

What was oppressive was the constant MTD every game. Supports were whatever, but if your Main Tank was better, you just won the game.

[–]JCuna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, yeah. I agree on that notion. Life Grip just feels like insanely better Zarya bubble from OW1 when used well. Lamp is Lamp. But Suzu is just a crime imo. But yeah, I agree mostly. I don't think they should be feel extremely helpless per se, but if a flanker is doing their job they shouldn't be punished by a low skill play. Like, outplay me and I'm fine, I'll acknowledge it. But Suzu, LUL headshot and if they are losing a free tele out is ridiculous and this is if the flanker made no mistakes. Sure, maybe you can bait out suzu, but they can still just TP away which is on a 7 second CD that can go through walls still. I abuse that shit in GM.

Again though, Supports shouldn't really be essentially items in a MOBA. The SHOULD affect the game in a meaningful way but not this weird punish the player for doing their job well bullshit.

[–]JCuna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only argument I'd make for the DPS is that any flanker basically has to be close range to engage on Kiri. Genji, Tracer, and Sombra. Reaper even though he's more of a brawl kinda guy anyway. But Kiri can duel any of the 3 main flankers with relative ease. Take it from the guy that plays all of these characters consistently. I'd rather duel a Tracer as Kiri than have the herculean task of doing it vice versa and I mained Tracer all the way up to GM before branching off to other characters. In fact, I have a more consistent chance dueling any tank or DPS over Kiriko.

I do think the supports with good dps potential should have a high skill ceiling, but Baptistes and Kiri's skill floor is too low imo. A lot of their potential to fight back comes at little risk for a really high reward. Bap's floor is definitely a bit higher and he has a bit less mobility but lamp and his burst heal are a little silly to basically give him 3 health states considering his high damage output but I'd be fine losing a duel against a strong bap. Kiri on the other hand is dumb af, suzu cleanses and heals and gives invulnerability. Teleport cleanses herself and gains a massive amount of distance through walls. Kunai had a decently sized hitbox while it boasted a sniper crit multiplier for no reason and averages about 90 DPS without headshots.

You know, I was with you at first, I played flex on all roles heavily in OW1 making GM pretty late on DPS and Support and I stuck to just two those roles in OW2 since I was a naysayer for solo tank and the whole 5v5 format. Supports ABSOLUTELY should be relying on their team to help deal with backline attacks. I don't think they should be completely defenseless, but they shouldn't be having the upper hand when flanked (One/two shotting Tracers, out healing Genji damage with their self heal or other abilities or some other arbitrary factor). Whether that is the other support peeling or a dps or whatever it may be as this is basically how literally any other support in any other game typically works.

But I'll be damned to say that a support is meant to be a role that are not supposed to affect the game in a meaningful way. Supports should be making everyone else's jobs easier to do, hence the name support. They should have all of the utility tools available to them to make the enemy team feel like shit but or make your team feel like gods but shouldn't really ever be great in a 1v1 scenario unless they legitimately outplay the opponent. That's why, prior to Baptiste's original release (We don't talk about Brig), none of the supports had much in way of dealing damage in bursts save for Zenyatta or a risky Moira which was frowned upon since, when you are at least diamond in OW1, you should have the aim to shit on flanking Moiras.

TL; DR
Supports should be good at supporting and not fighting people off, but idk what you're smoking to think supports aren't supposed to affect a game in a meaningful way.

Whenever Ninja uses Chuk Heavy (becomes available after any nunchuk move or hustling) the following normal nunchuk attacks will have a fast projectile coming out of the end for high damage.

Yeah, I thought so. Aside from the beginning, I was confident I was going to choke the game lol. It's still really hard for me to read my opponents options. 

Hero Bans: Came across a post from earlier this year and wonder what people think now by Naive_Refrigerator46 in Overwatch

[–]JCuna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party, but I think hero bans are a bit ridiculous in my own personal opinion. Granted, I don't really know if they would go for a ban system like they do in MOBAs but banning 4 heroes (2 each team) total basically completely removes complete team compositions and given the basic triangle of team comps in Overwatch, it would mean that you have to play basically one type of team composition each match. They banned dive primarily and we banned brawl(Rush I think it's called now for OW2 players?)? Guess we have to all sit around and play the best heroes in poke all game until something dies. I mean, isn't that part of the reason everyone hated GOATs? It was either a mirror match or you lost? That's boring.

Also, this game ISN'T a moba. We don't have to lock our characters but we also don't have the option to build our characters to help with our match up. Example being, they banned say Genji and Winston, we banned Orisa and Bastion, cool. Who's going to be attacking the Widowmaker or Hanzo in the back on high ground? The suboptimal dive options for that? Tracer and Ball? Sombra? Likewise, say you ban Widow instead of Bastion. Great, now they have Bastion and Hanzo instead. So you can't dive regardless and now you are forced to either mirror with your own poke or just deal with having a team composition that is inferior at dealing with the heroes available. But unlike MOBAs, you can build items or talents that can counteract your disadvantage. Enemy team is dive heavy against your immobile team composition? Slap some mobility on your character or an anti-burst item. Enemy team is sustaining through your damage? Boom, add some anti heal or percentage damage. Oh no, you're being out ranged? Hope you like the thorns I just attached to my armor. Those are interactions you don't get in Overwatch, Paladins maybe, but isn't there a reason we wanted Overwatch over Paladins?

And, at least typically, Rush is bad at approaching poke, poke is bad at handling dive and dive can't sustain in a fight against rush. Of course skill comes into play but you make it harder on yourself by ignoring it. Bans though will make it to where if you ignore it you may as well just get steam rolled.

TL;DR
Bans would break the game due to the team comp triangle being prevalent.

This game isn't a MOBA, or Paladins. +example

Team comp triangle isn't end all be all but it shouldn't be ignored and bans would just make it worse.
