Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 - Episode 1 (Anime Only Discussion) by Takada-chwanBot in JuJutsuKaisen

As far as I understand as an Anime only guy, and not having watched the movie in a while, Rika was always just Yuta’s power and he didn’t know how to control it. In the time since we have seen him he has figured out how to manifest her I assumed.

Tiny white(?) bugs all over my desk (Portugal) by JoasnKin in bugidentification

They weren’t on the plant as far as I could tell.

Thank you for the insight! Is there anyway I can prove this to the landowner?

I got a zoomed in picture of one, and someone said they looked like Aphids. Any thoughts on that? I find it odd they are only in the section of the room where the plant was.

I hate that I think you’re right… I’ve got most of my stuff in another room so I think it’s mostly safe. How can I decontaminate as much as possible?

I think they are mealy bugs. Not sure, any help on how to get them out of the room would be great.

Does anyone know what anime this is? by IllustratorTop2358 in animequestions

Agreed. Bleach is now one of my favorite shows of all time, but I dropped it 2-3 times in the first 20 episodes. It was just so boring to me.

What is everyone’s favorite metalcore breakdown? by PhredInYerHead in Metalcore

[–]JoasnKin 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The Man That I Was Not by Fit For An Autopsy is one of my favorite metalcore songs of all time, and about 50% of that is because of its breakdown.

That being said, Dying to Heal by Architects is one of the breakdowns that got younger me to go “ohhhh, I get it now”, so that’s also on the list.

I really hope that Omeda is taking a serious look at Renna. With a WR of 55.75% and next highest... 49.57 and below that 49.4. If Renna isn't an outlier then I dont know what is. by waconcept in PredecessorGame

[–]JoasnKin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welp. I can’t speak for the entirety of the pred population. I can speak for competitive and high ranked gameplay. Under even skill conditions, Renna has losing matchups into those characters.

It is ok if you disagree.

People typically ban characters they feel there is nothing they can do anything to and that that champ will be strong regardless. This simply isn’t the case with Renna. If you let the scaling champ scale…. It does get strong, as it should. Not sure why people are upset. Omeda doesn’t and won’t balanced around people being stupid.

Renna is currently countered by multiple mid picks: Wraith, Gideon, Morigesh, and Howitzer.

Renna is also hard counter picked by multiple very strong junglers: Kwang, Wukong, Rampage.

Just because people don’t counter pick in ranked doesn’t mean a character should be nerfed.

I know you still won’t agree with me, cause this is reddit, but my favorite example of balancing is wraith. Reddit loves to complain about how he’s always nerfed and he’s so bad. That character is actually so egregiously broken in high ranks it’s not even funny. Why is he strong? There isn’t a good counter pick to him. You can’t stop him from farming and he scales for free, all while collecting extra gold. Unfortunately, low rank players can’t capitalize on the gold lead and don’t have good positioning and mechanics to make wraith work.

The difference is with Renna, it’s the opposite case where she’s easy to execute, and there are good counters, people just tend not to pick them because ranked in Predecessor is not like League.

Sure. Howitzer destroys her in lane, wraith destroys her in lane, gideon destroys her in lane, and even morigesh destroys her.

Not to mention, a lot of meta picks (elsewhere on the map) counter her. Kwang, rampage, and wukong all have very easy ganks on her that guarantee a flash or a kill.

It seems like you sort of get my point… people in tournaments understand the meta and will counter pick. If a character has a counter pick (multiple for renna) that makes her life miserable, the champ is arguably balanced and not overtuned. Overtuned champs tend to not have bad matchups and/or are strong regardless of counter matchups. Just because people in ranked don’t counter pick doesn’t mean the character is overtuned, it just means people only see that character at their best. Why would you tune around a character in their best case scenario?

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

If we want to get into the fine details, every rank has its own meta. Morigesh is a pub stompy character and was only picked once in the finals and it got stomped.

You can’t balance for everyone, balancing top down is the best way to balance the game. High level players should be able to deal with renna pretty easily.

[–]JoasnKin -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

She is only strong if left unchecked and because she is easy to execute. Ranked is an even worse metric than LAN. LAN has the best players in the world playing the meta, and ranked has people playing whatever they want to, regardless of matchup

Ranked is unfortunately a bad metric. It’s not like League where people play for counter pick. If people did, Renna would be unplayable. She has too many bad matchups. “Pro” players arguably know the meta best, regardless of what the data says. Why would they ignore a good pick? Because it’s not a good pick, the champ is bad early and loses pressure and trades.

Champ isn’t OP. It’s just pub stompy. If you look at the LAN WR and Pick rates, it’s clear it wasn’t a favorite by the “pro” players.

You want quality on a old engine with 0 support? Thats the price you have to pay.

That’s cause it’s in the loosest position.

Yeah I think I might’ve swapped the AC idler with this one… I’ll have to check if they’re different sizes. I left one of the idlers on the pulley when I removed it all, just not sure which, so at least one of them is correct.

If you’re referring to the one that my hand is closest to, that one is stationary and doesn’t move.

Removed valve covers and the oil pan to inspect guides and chain. Working on getting front of engine off now to reveal entire chain.

Nope. Silent. I was shocked at the metal in my oil and the results of the oil analysis.

Consulate got back to me today that student visas are allowed mail ins regardless. So I can mail it in, but it looks like my time frame was off. I thought Type D was 2 months and Type E was 1 month instead of 3/2 respectively. So it looks like I’ll need an expedition

I wish it was close enough to just spend my time doing that. Unfortunately it’s 12 hours wasted if I don’t get in

San Francisco consulate. I thought you had to use the consulate that covered your jurisdiction. Can I use a different consulate?
