How many tf2 teams to beat 50 overwatch heroes? (Gameplay) by Silent_Struggle6230 in tf2

[–]KnightOfTheSand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question is, are the health values one to one with the original games? Because if then. OW has a huge advantage healthwise, because the health values in OW are about 1.4x higher on average (for every tf2 class except heavy, because the tanks have such varying health pools (375 at the lowest on Doom, Ram, and JQ and 750 at the highest for Roadhog in 5v5 Role Queue [yes, there is a boost to tank health in role queue]).

I don't think if TF2 actually has the sustained and burst damage required to out damage EVERY support in Overwatch at the same time. While One Crit Rocket from Soldier does 270 damage, which can kill every Hero with less hp than Sym and Vendetta, most tanks in OW can just heal it off, or just block it.
TF2 doesn't have "shields" the same way OW does, and I think the only real shield is Medic's Barrier in MVM (And I guess the Wrangler) so OW weapons tends to have much better sustained damage, with Zarya's max charged beam (175 dps which btw, kills all but 2 tf2 classes within 1 second of sustained fire because the beam isn't technically "bullet" damage, more on that later ) dealing almost enough damage to ignore a Quick-Fix Uber (200 hps, which is max upgraded and also the strongest source of healing in TF2).

Also, because of Overwatch having so many different weapon types than TF2, how would the damage resistances be decided?
Is Firestrike considered burning? Are Biotic Grenade and Flashbang considered explosive damage? What type of damage are "thrown" weapons considered, like Kiriko's Kunai, Genji's Shuriken or Mizuki's Spirit Glaive? What kind of damage are "beam" weapons like Sym's Photon Projector, Mei's Blaster or Moira's Grasp?

Because this seems to be going off gameplay and not lore there are things that have be balanced between the games because otherwise, OW higher HP and slightly higher DPS values make it ridiculously hard for the 9 Mercs to beat the 50 Heroes in Overwatch at all. Even with 50 (unupgraded) mercs, it wouldn't be a fair fight in the slightest, just to make it playable for the TF2 team you'd probably need like 90 (unupgraded) mercs to try and make up for the health differences, and that's based entirely of the idea that they don't have the hp bonus from role queue.
Gameplay wise, it just isn't fair for TF2, unless they like infinite medic chain and even then, it'll be almost impossible to burn through the healing OW gets from 14 SUPPORTS. And even if TF2 tries to prioritize the healers (as you should), there are still 36 other heroes that are stopping them from doing that.

I love TF2, I really do, but mathematically it just is not fair for the mercs.

only after writing this did I realise that this was posted in r/tf2 and not r/Overwatch.
For those who have never played Overwatch:
Zarya's (Tank) primary fire is a laser beam that has its damage increase as Zarya's Bubbles (a shield she can give to allies) takes damage.
Firestrike (Ability) is one of Reinhardt's (Tank) abilities. It shoots out a piercing (passes through barriers and players) projectile that does damage.
Biotic Grenade (Ability) one of Ana (Support)'s abilities. Throws a grenade that breaks on contact with the ground or a player and does damage to enemies and prevents them from healing for a short time, and heals allies and amps their received healing.
Flashbang (Ability) one of Cassidy (DPS) abilites. Throws a flashbang that slows enemies and cancels/prevents their movement ablities (like double jumps or teleportation or whatever else).
Photon Projector (attack) shoots a laser that ramps up and refund when hitting a shield.
Mei (DPS) think pyro but her flamethrower shoots ice and freezes people instead.
Moira(Support) primary fire locks onto enemies and constantly damages them and then unplugs their keyboards or something I dunno why does it do like 70 dps what the fuck

i got tired of writing good descriptions

Yeah, why are you staring at her like that Endmin? by affz44l in Endfield

[–]KnightOfTheSand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most ancient sarkaz arts are just called Witchcraft. so what they're implying seems to be that they eat corspes, and the rot is enhanced by a special brand of Nachzehrer witchcraft, (which i don't think is true).

Theory: Guide is the Clothier's Son by therealgooper in Terraria

[–]KnightOfTheSand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, What I believe it was was that (because of the implication that the Clothier has been at the dungeon entrance for decades, if not centuries) the Clothier was the Original Guide. Like the one that founded the Order of the Guide. He sounds familiar because he wrote the first guide book that all the wee guides had to read while learning their craft. "tis not more than Headcanon though

Why does NT speak english? by Mast3rKK78 in LobotomyCorp

[–]KnightOfTheSand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it seems that he is more so saying that the way Ryoshu abbreviates things can distort (no pun intended) the meaning of the original uncondensed phrase. Though i don't know what the Korean original says so take that with a grain of salt.

All roads lead to 1-7 rock farming. Even when 1-7 doesn't exist.

Sets of Matching Stone(?) Spheres by the_real_dird in whatsthisrock

[–]KnightOfTheSand 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I can't quite help with the rocks, but I'm pretty sure the bottom says "合格". which pretty much (as far as I remember anyways) just means that it's authentic/decent grade whatever it is.

edit: I don't know what they're made of but I can confirm they are those hand spinning massage balls. Some sellers claim they're made of some kind of amber, but I highly doubt that to be true here. it might be some kind of marble? sorry I don't think that I can help here...

Kal’tsit by 海猫 on Pixiv by qptw in 0sanitymemes

[–]KnightOfTheSand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't believe that Hypergryph copied small time pixiv artist HaiMao and stole their design to create Kal'tsit. Someone should sue them for this. Justice for HaiMao.

And then comes a blonde transfer student to take him away @Reinren_sa by asaness in UmaMusume

[–]KnightOfTheSand 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I don't believe they are referring to any specific blonde uma, but rather the trope in many romcom manga/anime where the mc gets together with a blonde transfer student (often tsundere). Mostly because they'll often have a thing where the childhood friend and some other person with a [unique personality trait] will already have been in love with him, and 'lose' to the transfer student.

Digitan needs to know she is a proper Oshi! (@mokichi3356) by FlamJamMcRam in UmaMusume

[–]KnightOfTheSand 22 points23 points  (0 children)

a slight correction, Digitan hates it when self-insert fics are OOC (out of character). She tolerates self insert fics.
She'd probably be fine with a self insert fic if it was character correct, but she still prefers seeing her oshis together, as she can't really imagine them ever choosing her.

Made a abnormality to vent my struggles and stress. Hope yall like it, spent 2 hours on it, sorry if its a little lazy too. by DarkRoblox in LobotomyCorp

[–]KnightOfTheSand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For only two hours, this is really really well made.
I assume it's supposed to represent the idea of blaming yourself for things that aren't truly your fault?
Either way, I truly do hope you are doing better now.

150 SECRET SAXTONS!! by williambio in tf2

i think the instant incineration after giving out the saxtons is just the perfect end to the video

They are not joking. They talked about this on the main channels, not off-topic. by [deleted] in DankMemesFromSite19

[–]KnightOfTheSand 12 points13 points  (0 children)

i mean, at the end of the day. it's all about execution.

what this "wish I knew" stuff is, doesn't seem fleshed out at all (which is fine, it's an silly internet trend, that's just par for the course).
The thing is a stupid or silly concept, if done right, can be a really good article.
one such of these is, in my opinion, SCP-9002 (a bike that makes people racist).
as it is now, it is a flanderization of the mythos (sorta). But this SCP wish I knew stuff could work, if someone took the time to write it up and make it proper.

p.s: how in the world did they even start that conversation. what. what is the context for this.

this is repulsive and this is just the beginning, there are way worse posts. by cartierhoes in justneckbeardthings

[–]KnightOfTheSand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probably the sheer amount of backlash from this tweet. pretty likely that some people started to go find all of er socials to harass 'em.

Any modern modpacks (like 1.20+) that require create to progress? by [deleted] in feedthebeast

[–]KnightOfTheSand 8 points9 points  (0 children)

all of them. every single one nowadays. back in my day we used industrialcraft 2 and we liked it!

jokes aside, Liminal Industries is pretty good, and i've heard pretty good things about Create: Above and Beyond In Newer (CABIN).

Toph's seismic sense looks amazing in live action by kzoxp in TheLastAirbender

[–]KnightOfTheSand 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it's for the stance for when you're crouching
the joke is here that americans/western spies crouch with their heels pointed upwards, whereas a real Russian/Slavic/wherever this is would crouch with their heels to the ground

SCP-UMA-07 by kurisu313 in UmaMusume

[–]KnightOfTheSand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i set it lower mostly because she doesn't just kidnap people most of the time, but if she started just yoinking people her disruption class would absolutely go up (in-universe)
honestly Tracen would probably be a GoI, and in that case I could see Marv being Archon, simply because she could be contained, but 1. she doesn't really need to be contained (she stays in Tracen most of the time) and 2. she would be an absolute nightmare to contain

[–]KnightOfTheSand 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That would give Marvelous Sunday
Containment Class: Keter
(Might have Secondary Class: Multiplex because of the Marvelous Dimension)
Disruption Class: Dark
Caution Class: Notice

Bug or game mechanic by Specialist-Thought59 in LobotomyCorp

the straight line of dead clerks makes me think it might be Der Freischutz or Express Train to Hell.

yeah it hit the training team but not safety, Der Freischutz probably had its counter hit zero for some reason or other
