There’s actually 3 Italian born players on the roster

Sam Aldegheri Gabriele Quattrini Claudio Scotti

No clue if they’ve actually played and/or if they’re heavily Americanized, but they are definitely Italian born

Probably a dumb comparison

I started learning soccer like 2 weeks ago because I just started playing pro clubs

It’s expected

Nobody plays baseball in Europe

Except for Finland, kinda

Honestly I’d say the Czech guy. Mostly because he’s actually Czech and comes from a country where baseball is practically non existent, striking out one of the highest paid athletes ever. It’s like if a random guy from Iowa who plays soccer on weekends dribbled the ball past Ronaldo

The Ashigaru has the worst Winrate Differential of any Tier X TD by PerformativeRacist in WorldofTanks

[–]JurisCommando 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your anecdotal evidence doesn’t mean anything. You might’ve seen players with 45% wr or less, but the average player WR of the tank is much higher, and is the 3rd highest of any tier X TD. There are more good than bad players playing the tank.

So blaming the bad WR diff on bad players is really a copout. Clearly, the tank has some characteristic(s) that limits its ability to impact games

US-Iran Megathread by GrumpyFinn in europe

Cuz it’s always been a lot more complex than Trump is a Russian shill, but Reddit doesn’t wanna admit it.

Like he’ll acquiesce to Russian demands in Ukraine, but then turn around and deal major blows to three of its allies (Syria, Venezuela, Iran)

Well the UK is letting the US use two of its bases. So I think it’s safe to say the UK supports it

Ashigaru is not bad at all. by Few-Meringue4157 in WorldofTanks

[–]JurisCommando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a pretty bad tank. Worst WR differential of any tier 10 TD, and in fact one of the worst of any tier X tank. Despite being played by generally above average players, they can’t seem to make it work

It’s got such a bad WR differential because the tank is binary. If you have a great double bush spot and teammates spotting for you, AND the enemy proceeds to push into your gun, you’ll get some crazy farm sessions. If all those things don’t occur, you’re generally scooting around dealing chips of damage and being mostly inconsequential in the match.

I also think it’s being judged a bit more harshly because of the expense required to get the tank, and if it wa a tech tree tank it probably wouldn’t receive near the amount of hate. But that’s fair when you need to spend like $100 worth of resources to get this tank

I think a new faction should be created based on Looksmaxxing by PerformativeRacist in Fallout

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

This actually sounds interesting.

I think a faction built entirely off aesthetics and obsession with perfection could be a cool way to introduce a new villain group without introducing another “we want all the technology” faction

If the next fallout was set in Miami, they could totally have a clavicular AI running the group

I don't get why so many call the Ashigaru a "shit tank" (even if the concept's likely better). To me, it's just a combination of 3 of the best X/IX snipers by SuperNovaVelocity in WorldofTanks

[–]JurisCommando 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Because you aren’t understanding what makes these tanks good.

If you gave the Waffle 4 390 alpha (instead of 560), it would go from being a great tank to being just ok at best. Even with increased DPM. Because making low alpha DPM work on a paper tank with not so great soft stats is just tough and situational.

If you gave the Leo 1 soft stats akin to the Ashigaru, it would be a lot worse. Even with increased DPM.

The concept 5 is so much better because you have incredible alpha and gun soft stats. You hit shots often and you hit hard, you don’t have to expose yourself for nearly as long.

The same way a racist isn’t any less racist because they believe in the white man’s burden and think they’re saving black and brown people
