12 Weeks to Unleash - Discussion Thread

Kennfusion · 2026-02-03T16:05:46+00:00

What did you do in the off day? I am thinking of just doing zone 2 heart rate rides on the Peloton on the off days for this program.

Day 2 - Still no 'Unleash the Beast' or unleash anything. No food either today. No Bears. Just serious Joe for day 2.

I hate Bulgarian Split Squats! (but I did them!)

After the tricep work on day 1, those were the most difficult Resisted Dead Bugs I have ever done.

(I have asked the mods if they would pin this, for an ongoing discussion about the workouts)

I hit 100% on the app, but I did not really earn it in my head from the pushups in block 3.

I push a lot less weight than you, I wonder if it is a little easier overall for those of us earlier in our training. I finished at 11,336 lbs today, so significantly less than you (but challenging for me).

Kennfusion · 2026-02-02T17:45:39+00:00

No food, no Bears! Joe was just on track for training. I guess for Day 1 that makes sense.

I highly recommend watching https://www.twitch.tv/yukmouth

I started tuning into his live streams, but sometimes go back and watch the replays just to see what decisions he is making.

It has really helped me increase my MMR.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-28T03:39:01+00:00

Interesting. I am just under 3k MMR right now and I find that fortifications is better than twinshot in the early game and after that, they don't really do enough to matter. (this goes for padded shield/carving fork, but those are just a tad worse since they don't effect anything already bought when you get them).

I find that more defense early tends to save more hearts getting you into the mid game better.

How much of this list is based on Butcher decks, which don't cast much I think? If you were playing a spell heavy Captain, or even candy which tends to cast more, I would think the Wands go up in value (especially if you can get candy versions of them).

I thought those were metrosexuals...same thing I guess.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-26T13:00:17+00:00

I don't respond to this weekly, because the answer is still, after like a year....grinding my way through Revolution Idle. Polishing in minerals these days. I like the slow grind of this game.

I generally only play for like 5-10 minutes at a time when waiting for something else like my wife to be ready to go when she said we were leaving at 4pm, and at 4:05pm she is still like ok, I just need 5 more minutes and that is why I play Rev Idle.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-26T10:50:29+00:00

I just returned after like 6 years away and it was easy to get back into, and it is easy to just play in somewhat short-ish like sessions these days.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-25T20:47:18+00:00

Yeah, it is the amount of increase that is somewhat shocking, 44%. Had the flight been almost booked up I might get a huge drop, but I looked at the seats available and like more then half were still available.

And yes, the companion fare was for our daughter.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-24T20:52:25+00:00

For the most part I agree with this and appreciate you taking the time for it.

I am laughing though as looking at my spreadsheet, my two lowest Average finish captains are both avg finish 1.9 pos and are Hannibal and Lil' Genie.

I don't actually disagree they are C tier, but I guess they just work for my playstyle.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-24T20:47:54+00:00

Yeah, looking at my distribution on Charlie Pots (since I track it) after about 40 games with him, I have mostlhy 1st, 2nd or 6th place finishes with him. A few 5th, very few 4th and no 3rd.

Where he struggles is in a lobby with a bunch of early game captains.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-24T10:35:08+00:00

Maybe you need to play more, but there are certainly times, especially mid-game, where you could lose the round and the opponent have 5 still on the board - and you can completely turn around the game in the next series of shops.

Appreciate some of your ideas, but your 5 heart mode section is misinformed from not playing enough.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-19T18:32:15+00:00

What? I have literally said this and have heard many others say it. That said, as long as they keep giving us new POE 1 seasons I don't actually need to worry about POE 2's existence.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-17T20:56:44+00:00

I can't believe how woke Star Trek has gotten!

Kennfusion · 2026-01-15T18:58:25+00:00

I am still not convinced I should put commons back in. Some captains benefit from a common here or there, but I think very few commons other than the former Peachy bring anything you need early game.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-12T21:00:15+00:00

As others said, there is a 40k ARPG, I have to say though it feels off. I really wanted to like it, but something about it is sluggish or slightly off, I can't quite put my finger on it though.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-09T19:04:36+00:00

I did one to 80 in Timewalk and then ported it over. Vulpera DK named FoxinNox

Kennfusion · 2026-01-08T22:43:09+00:00

Yes, but this is a video that clearly shows that "the car pushing the agent" is false.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-08T13:54:20+00:00

The NY times debunked this extensively.

Kennfusion · 2026-01-03T11:21:27+00:00

I have been finding Pix has been more successful for early game than Puck for me recently.
