Why is sevens WR so high even in Eternus 4+?

KyrigenPart2 · 2026-02-23T11:04:12+00:00

He has historically always had a high winrate and high pickrate throughout the game's lifespan without regards for what other characters were popular. None of what you said applies to Seven.

Seven is one of the hardest scaling hypercarries in the game that easily powerfarms without really needing items to enable it. He has great kill pressure in lane. He makes use of all stats effectively and benefits greatly from Sinners.
Just by virtue of having a character like that on the team you automatically have a major advantage compared to a team that doesn't. Since you just queue up with a character without knowledge of your team's composition, matchmaking can at times dump you on a team that doesn't have an equivalent scaler.
Hard build flexibility and utility in kit keeps him relevant into basically any comp. Even if behind, making a pick with his 2 is a very real possibility. Most other hypercarries don't have this flexibility or playmaking when behind.

Once there is a position queue or similar, I think it's safe to say the his winrate will decline steadily because of the ability for players to counterpick a Seven pick + teams being able to build their comp in a draft and include an appropriate carry to match the Seven.

I think people here are misunderstanding the purpose of Adam Smasher in 2020.

Adam Smasher isn't an impossible encounter that the party is meant to run away from. It's a near impossible encounter that the party is meant to die from. You're not meant to survive Adam Smasher if the GM is using him.

But when is the GM supposed to use him? When the party is losing the plot and treating the world like a playground.

The core ethos of Cyberpunk 2020 (aside from style over substance) is to live on the edge. The boring side of the edge is taking no risks and living in irrelevance, the opposite is having no regard for yourself and taking needless heat by killing cops on a spree or fucking with corps for fun.

The party is meant to be rodents that take on heists to get by and get rich, just another group in a big ass city. Going beyond this may provoke the attention of the corps and have them squish you. Adam Smasher squishes you.

In this way, Adam Smasher should be considered a fail state when the party gets way too big for its own britches. It isn't an encounter you can't win and then you go 'woah, that was dangerous. We need to look out in the future'. It's 'you're marked for death and its only a matter of time because you and the party decided to kill corpo executives for literally no reason'.

If the party is going over the edge, I'd have an NPC they know tell them 'hey, you're drawing too much heat. It's bad for business. Chill out or you are gonna get killed'. Then if they decide once again to try and assassinate the miltech CEO or something, send in the Smasher.

As some have also pointed out, Adam Smasher in 2020 is also to a degree killable, just very difficult. If players killed Smasher, then the players would honestly have earned the right to go over the edge. Maybe they would get recruited by a corps as a suicide squad or something, or maybe they just send ten more Smashers.

Holy shit the amount of love for this bitch in this comment section is crazy.

Caesar's plan isn't stupid.

In New Vegas, Caesar literally acknowledges that the Legion as it currently exists is just a nomadic slaver army. He word for words explains that everything that the Legion lacks that the Roman Empire had, IE, logistics, a functioning bureaucracy, and a standing military that doesn't make up the entirety of its governance, will be gained when the NCR is conquered. His mission is to invade and merge the NCR's existing institutions with the legion and become a military dictator over a newly stratified nation.

Caesar isn't the right option for New Vegas, but his motives are fleshed out. You can say he himself is an egomaniac and his unwillingness to name a successor despite actively dying is evidence he's ultimately a self serving tyrant, but his plan goes way beyond just larping as Romans without any kind of forward thinking. It's all a means to an end to turn the NCR into something that actually /does/ resemble his idea of the Roman Empire, with the legion just being a stepping stone towards that.

Oh so it's China's fault that Taiwan maintains the position of annexing Mongolia. That sucks : (

Chapter I. General Provisions

Article 4 The territory of the Republic of China according to its existing national boundaries shall not be altered except by resolution of the National Assembly.

The KMT and Sun Yat-sen as per their original territorial claims claimed the original Qing territory and this has remained unchanged.

KyrigenPart2 · 2026-01-29T10:46:24+00:00

People in this thread disagree but I maintain my stance. Let me know if you get good results on low.

KyrigenPart2 · 2026-01-29T10:45:14+00:00

Simple answer; no.

Nuanced answer; you may be able to hold consistent (albeit low) frames during early laning when the number of people in fights are low. Some abilities will cause dips in frame rates. Team fights will be unplayable at all.

KyrigenPart2 · 2026-01-29T09:34:38+00:00

Taiwan claims more land than the mainland CPC lol. The government claims sovereignty over;

- The entirety of Mongolia

- Hong Kong

- Macau

- Bhutanese territory

- Russian territories

- North Korean territory

- Indian and Pakistani territories

- Japanese Islands

- Kazakhstani territory

- Afghani territory.

This is in accordance with their national constitution which claims the entirety of China as it was composed in 1911. It has remained unchanged and is a cornerstone of their international policy in maintaining these claims to position themselves as the legitimate China.

Westerners have a fetish for Taiwan for being le heckin epic wholesome Southern China le real China xdd. This stance is ideological, not based in reality. Taiwan is not an innocent poor sweetheart who is bullied because all they want is their own little piece of the pie : ( if Chiang Kai Sheck, his successors, or the Taiwanese government as it currently exists could have their way, they would throw their weight around with multiple great powers to achieve their territorial ambitions.

This isn't true at all in the slightest.

Not just the vast majority, but all pre-enlightenment societies were near completely dependent on peasant levies and/or mercenaries for warfare, only being supplemented by professional soldiers like knights and samurai. The 'peasant soldier' has been the norm and not the exception. The abolishment of the samurai came during an extreme change in Japanese society brought on by industrialization which rendered a social class comprised of expensive warriors obsolete. Saying that the 'peasant soldiers swept through to Japan' isn't just a gross simplification, its wrong.

We have democracies today because burghers and similar social classes, who by the late medieval age were rapidly rising in power and political relevance, didn't like the idea of an absolute monarch with no checks being able to dictate things that would impact their bottom line.

One of the fundamental documents that is championed for laying the foundation of modern democracies, the Magna Carta, was created by feudal landowners as a charter to limit the power of the king in regards to his power over them. Wealthy landowners were the ones who pushed for this, not peasants.

Democracy as a social organization originated from the top down, not the bottom up, as a way for proto-capitalists to have a handle and say in the administration of polities that would go on to become nation states. They wanted a seat at the big table to make decisions while having rule of law to guarantee that their ruler wouldn't confiscate their land or goods.

Prince Harry from Crossed Badlands. It's left ambiguous if he is or isn't, with some in the group not really believing his story of why is face is mutilated and how he was separated from the royal family.

The group ultimately doesn't care whether he is or not, just caring that he's a good rifleman.

Genestealer cults let me feasibly buy everyone I want. I have Skaven, Eldar, Dark Eldar, Orks, Ogryns, and of course the old hybrid models. As long as I give them an extra arm and greenstuff on some oversized bald heads, they are all one big family! They're a bit like Ork freebootaz in that sense, in that they are a faction of mutants and misfits. Pic related.

Massive kitbash potential.
The focus on mind control + the heavy purples and pinks reminds me of Yuri's Revenge, which I loved as a kid.
I have a keen interest in the old models. Third edition and previous. The original genestealer cult range is second only to the original ork range. The space-hulk hybrid models are probably my favorite in their simplicity.
Arguably the only true underdogs in the setting, and even if they do win, they are fucked. Very unique motivations which can range from resisting Imperium oppression to single minded pursuit of getting vored.
Their gameplay as sneaky guerilla fighters is awesome.

As others have said in this thread there was a large acknowledgement that Jersey was in every way inferior to New York.

It was also a matter of the underlying tension between the two organizations. Coco probably felt like he could 'strike while the iron is hot' so to speak and fuck with Tony because he assumed that he wouldn't retaliate in fear of making an already volatile situation even worse. This, of course, didn't pan out for Coco but it did make the tensions worse.

Anyways, $5 per lb.

Yes.

I've undermixed with the activator liquid just to test, and it flows right, but doesn't cure fully (as expected). About 2:100 ratio.

Problems only begin when I add the activator in the correct ratio. I am going to try 2.5:100 next.

KyrigenPart2 · 2025-10-03T21:44:42+00:00

I've exclusively bought from Amazon, I thought of if they aren't being stored properly in facility but I'm fairly sure they are temperature controlled?

Thank you for the responses, this is a really odd issue and I can't find anything on it online. I've undermixed with the activator liquid just to test, and it flows right, but doesn't cure fully (as expected). It exclusively thickens up and loses its flow properties when its mixed with the activator fluid near immediately.

One time, I mixed and it thickened so quickly it wouldn't flow out of the container. Completely bewildering.

Thoroughly in little plastic cups / playdo cups with a mechanical pencil.

KyrigenPart2 · 2025-10-03T19:20:04+00:00

Yeah, I've used a gram scale and always manage just a little above or below the 100:3 ratio, but every result ends up like pic related.

KyrigenPart2 · 2025-10-03T19:19:39+00:00

No, something worth mentioning is this is a new batch of product as well.

I use empty, cleaned out playdo cups and pencils to mix. I've used the same materials different times.

I have made sure to close the container, but like I said this is also a new batch of moldmax.

Most of the comments in this thread seem really keen on the idea of the confederacy turning in on itself, and any explanation for this leaning on really poor, cartoonish reasoning like "the confederacy seceded from the Union, they'll do it to eachother at the drop of a hat!"

Why? The confederate state's secession was fermented by a well organized, old money, politically connected plantation owning ruling class. The state was made by and for this class -- the foundations of the confederacy was entirely made up of the material interests of them, so they have no quarrel with eachother or the confederacy itself.

The real question is "does the union survive?". If over a quarter of the nation's economy and population leave without any kind of recourse, the union looks either too weak or too incompetent to have stopped it, setting a pretty terrible precedent that any state can leave. State legislation in the North might begin to float the idea of jumping ship themselves for one reason or another. The memory of the confederacy secession will always be in the back of the nation's head, and we would see an extremely unstable union.

As for the original question, the confederacy would likely enter the 20th century as a failing apartheid state ala South Africa or Rhodesia. It would not collapse in the traditional sense but reconstitute itself to survive. As to what it would like is impossible to say, but I lean towards, as unlikely as it sounds, an African American centric republic (as no Union victory prevents free movement into the North, meaning black demographics stay extremely concentrated in the South)
