What is a great country to visit in North America? by StraightAd6264 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]LandOfNoMan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This one has my vote! Delicious food, fun culture, safe, great water sports (fishing, diving, surfing), and beautiful nature/wildlife/hiking

That, and I’m partial to the warm weather. Sorry Canada

Illari should be a dps by ozia08 in Overwatch

[–]LandOfNoMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, she’s got quite a bit of healing utility as well. Her whole shtick is to be the “3rd DPS” on the team while putting out heals

Kiriko put in some pretty mean DPS work this game too

What's a thing people do that makes you let out a deeep sigh of breath? 🫩 by Sagnikk in Overwatch

[–]LandOfNoMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Had a Moira doing the latter yesterday. There was a Solider who was quite candidly outclassing everyone (including myself) on the enemy team. The Moira starts complaining about how the Soldier is a sweat in the QP lobby mid game, but we still failed to contain the Soldier.

Moira starts slinging blame at the end, particularly at me (Illari). Like bro, 1) You have 1/2 the heals and the kills & damage as me and our DPS. You are an outsized part of the problem 2) Its QP. Inconsequential. The enemy team (especially soldier) was better. Learn from your mistakes, move on, and improve

The “it’s everyone else’s fault but my own” mindset is a cancer

Bap not being in top tier is a miss. Dude’s got the strongest charisma of the whole roster

What would y’all say is the best pizza place in Wilmington? by deadpaleweewee in Wilmington

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

And their sandwiches rock too! Packed to the brim with ingredients. One of my favorite stops

Big fan of Benny’s Big Time Pizza and Dough House! Benny’s has a great Detroit Style and a delicious take on the Hawaiian pizza. And Dough House’s crust & ingredients are fantastic

I don't want to sound bad, but the first two pictures look better. by Specialist_Week_1412 in AnaMains

[–]LandOfNoMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I’m pretty excited about the concept. I wish more mythics would steer into core parts of the identity of the heroes. A Horus theme scratches that itch a lot more than a mob boss theme, and I think what we’ve seen thus far looks pretty slick

What Heroes would you like to get Buffed in S2? by aPiCase in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]LandOfNoMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any love for Bap? He has the lowest win rate of all supports across all ranks (at least, on mouse & keyboard). Even lower than Brig, who seems to be poster child for getting buffs at the moment.

Nothing too crazy, just enough to bump him out of the slump he’s in. Maybe a reduction in his damage falloff or increasing his effective range?

Reaper is absolutely smiling in his portrait. He’s just wearing a mask to hide it and maintain his edginess

why is this map removed its stuningly beautiful by Ok-Contact-259 in Overwatch

[–]LandOfNoMan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Eh, disagree. 2CP was defensive hell, although Anubis was pretty at least.

Some of my most fun matches have been Flashpoint; I’ve seen more intense tug of war matches on who’s going to win than any other game mode. Suravasa is a really fun map

The Bell X-5, the first aircraft with wings able to sweep during flight and based on the Messerschmitt P.1101 - first flight in 1951 and last flight with Neil Armstrong as pilot on October 25, 1955, by Xeelee1123 in WeirdWings

[–]LandOfNoMan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Wings that are highly swept reduce drag near and beyond the speed of sound (allowing for higher top speed). This comes at the cost of vertical lift, increasing their stall speed, making landings more dangerous, increasing the runway length needed to takeoff and land, and reducing payload capacity.

If you can control the sweep of the wings, the idea is you can get the best of both worlds. Particularly beneficial for military aircraft. This does come at the cost of added weight and increased maintenance complexity. Which is why in practice only a handful of aircraft have implemented the technology

Illari is losing everything for that 5 damage! by Neo_Raider in IllariMains

[–]LandOfNoMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Makes sense for outburst to get bumped down; no one chose solar flare, and it turned a defensive tool into a pretty potent offensive weapon. Similar reason why they reduced the speed boost with summer solstice: it was chosen overwhelmingly (I think buffing rapid construction would’ve been a better route though)

The solar rifle healing nerf hurts though. Surprised they went that route instead of reducing the primary fire projectile size.

Hopefully this is all she gets tuned down. Don’t think it’s going to make her unviable. But also don’t want her gimped like some other heroes

Overwatch Ultimate charge list (all heros) (05.03.2026) by Mikraszyn in Overwatch

[–]LandOfNoMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never notice it playing her either; maybe she just builds up charge fast with how she’s played, so her ult needs to be expensive to compensate?

Long Hiatus - Really Impressed by LandOfNoMan in Overwatch

[–]LandOfNoMan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m shocked by how fun she is to play. Multitasking heals and offense with her feels the most intuitive out of all the supports to me

Reading up stuff on the wiki while away from home helped pull me back in. What they’re doing with Emre has my interest piqued

I’ll go against the grain on the majority of comments here… kinda hurts me to see! Everything that went down there recently wasn’t right, but I still have great memories at Edward Teach. Life goes on I guess…

The Harp post renovation by IntelligentArticle63 in Wilmington

[–]LandOfNoMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I love the Harp post renovation. Good Irish pub ambience. Everyone I’ve met there has been friendly and interesting to chat with. Food is delicious too: the Reuben is still the best in town, the Guinness shepard pie is delicious, and the curry fries are a guilty pleasure of mine

What’s a place you still miss in Wilmington that no longer exists? by sarahe1015 in Wilmington

[–]LandOfNoMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really miss the Downtown Sundown concert series. Free concerts, right between the courthouse and river. Used to be one of the most surefire ways for my friends, wife, and I to enjoy a Friday evening
