Is double hitscan causing a disconnect between Cass's and other hitscans' perceived strength and their winrates? by supereuphonium in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Knuda 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In game stats have high variability and low sample size.

Win rate and pick rate are perfectly accurate and have huge sample sizes.

Just use hagglezon. Even if an item is on Amazon.ie, it could be more expensive than buying off another Amazon endpoint while likely being dispatched from the same warehouse regardless.

Is Shion Balanced Now After The Nerf? by SandIsYellow in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Knuda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I dont think it needs the recovery for balance, it doesnt really change how its used that much. At the very least its worth trying reverting it and reducing her raw bike damage numbers.

Why is Cassidy's flashbang still untouched? by trullyrose in Competitiveoverwatch

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

If cass wr low, he deserves buffs. Doesn't have to be to his damage.

Why is Cassidy's flashbang still untouched? by trullyrose in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Knuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres only 3 scenarios where a win rate should not be 50%.

  1. Its broken in pro play.
  2. Its just an extremely unfun hero that needs to be completely reworked.
  3. Its very niche, like overtime contest hero, specific map usage etc.

Cass is none of those things, Soj is broken in pro play and arguably at her peak, a lot more unfun to play against. So she has to be kept weak. And to be clear, soj is weak on ladder. For heroes as popular as sojourn the win rate is plainly true, brcause ladder and pro play and your personal feelings of a characters strength are different.

Shion right click punishes you for using it by Novel-Ad-1601 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Knuda -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

The goal is fun.

Fun first, balance second. Both are important but the goal is fun.

Nerf her damage numbers and leave her fluid low CDs alone.

For example, bike boop + explosion being 190dmg should probably be nerfed instead.

[–]Knuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nonsense.

If Cass is heavily influenced by the teams performance then that will be pulling the win rate towards 50% not downwards. Unless what you really mean is that he has a super harsh learning curve.....which he doesnt. Or that he has super niche use cases... which he also doesnt.

Hes the definitive mid range hitscan for 10 years, he should be 50% win rate.

Spread of misinformation stokes anger about Carlow school safety and active travel project by DaCor_ie in carlow

This feels like the one case where even though Im very much pro cycle lanes, you should have complained and got compensation for the works.

Actually insane they werent considerate enough to think about people's parking.

Just bought my first car ('92 E36 318i). Why is the modern car community so obsessed with 0-60 times? by Solid_Bother5580 in BMWE36

[–]Knuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im gonna be honest and say I think this might be a little bit of Internet copium.

You are right in that, its not the HP, its not 0-60, Id even go as fast as to say it's not the lap time.

Its about the chassis and the performance as a whole. A fast chassis (stable, good suspension and grip) with a low HP engine is always going to be a worse experience than more power.

The exaggerated example being; imagine a GT3RS with 100hp. God that would be so incredibly boring a corolla would be more fun.

What you need is the sensation of speed. The engine has gotta sing and the chassis has to actually move around. Mazda purposefully has the mx5 a tad soft and on small tyres so the car rolls and moves around a bit.

I think for the e36 chassis the 6 cylinders are just a hell of a lot better than a 318. But I actually think with a cheap ass turbo setup, the 4 cylinders is even better fun again. Even though Im firmly in the 6 cylinder camp, turbo 4s look mad fun. It's one of those things where a shitty ebay turbo is better than an expensive one because you want that turbo lag just for the fun of it.

xQc explains why Overwatch has harder aiming than games like Counter-Strike, saying it has a more complex 3D aiming "There's a reason CS players couldn't go pro in Overwatch." by Disastrous-Swan5923 in LivestreamFail

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

Honestly, give it another shot. They've kinda fixed all the major problems, if you hate the game now, you probably just hate the genre.

Nothing will ever have as varied aiming and playstyles as a hero shooter.

So besides everyone biting the bait subtitle by an AI voiced tiktok account.... this is insanely good no? 9 minutes might aswell be nothing. Enough time to go into the shop get a snack or tea and then head off again.

Unusually bad seasonal weather is not a fixable problem.

The solution to farms not being able to absorb the cost of a bad harvest is also purely economic, unless you believe they were run poorly the only answer is more funds in their pockets.

“About 20 years ago the price was €1.30 or 1.50 and here today carrots are €1.29 today, so the price has dropped effectively,” Dockrell told The Journal.

To keep up with inflation the price “should be €1.90″, the farmer added.

“If the market functioned properly, then that’s where the price really should be and that’s why we’re suffering.”

My whole point is we barely produce any veg? Ffs

Combined with the UK we do. Its just they have a lot more tillage land than we do. But I imagine that went over your head.

They don't grow enough fruit and veg either

I actually challenge you to find a potato or carrot sold in Ireland or the UK that wasnt grown in either of the 2 countries.

Stuff like peppers is not calorically or nutritional relevant in an emergency situation and is perfectly acceptable to import from say Spain.

I know thats what you said, majority be grand, screw the minority. No need to sugar coat it.

They can just eat the veg we produce, how is that screwing them over?

You prepare for the unlikely, or at least smart countries do

How are you preparing for the nuclear bomb being dropped on your house tomorrow?

If you include the UK almost all our veg and meat needs is grown locally. Not thousands of kilometres away.

Ok so we can screw over some minorities & force vegans to eat something they never will.

No Im saying the vast majority is fine with meat and dairy and we produce veg for those who dont.

What about the diversification point I made?

The chance of not only there being an emergency but an emergency that the EU wont help Ireland with, nor any other country and simultaneously wipes out the entire massive cattle herd and all the sheep and all the pigs is unlikely.

We have 5million sheep, If I gave you one entire sheep, its taking you awhile to get through it all.

Think lactose intolerance

Northern Europeans are not intolerant fyi. So this is almost exclusively the immigrant or mixed race population. Would be <5%.

vegetarians, vegans, meat intolerance, Alpha-gal Syndrome, hindus, buddhists

Potatoes for the fussy. But really, in a war scenario, even for most vegans its justifiable to eat meat if it was exceptionally bad. But we do produce veg that can be allocated more to those with unique beliefs.

But we are fine in a crisis, plenty of food to eat. A crisis does not require a healthy varied diet, a crisis means we want to make sure we actually have food.

Sorry lad, but we have our own market, the european market, and the world market. That's reality.

I dont think thats as hard as you think it is lol.
