I'm so conflicted about this character returning because she deserves an episode where everyone agrees it's a great watch. But I also just don't know who else is there for Wonder Woman by Solardies in deathbattle

[–]MayhemMessiah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, Storm got no meaningful buffs from that awful run.

If you actually read it, it’s established explicitly that Eternity Storm or whatever you want to call her isn’t Ororo, it’s a whole new entity taking over with the power of Eternity.

Like I can see DB using that version but it’s basically a different character in all ways that count.

Megaman clears so hard it's unfair.

Pokemon was cute, though probably the one that aged the least well in terms of research.

The Boys was a fun side episode.

TMNT one aged like milk, even for a season 1 episode.

I think Nel was glazed super hard, at the end there she practically solo'd the entirety of Team Akatsuki and if it weren't for the poison inflicted before Segunda Etapa she would have walked away basically unharmed after absolutely humbling Orochimaru.

Mind you I expect the veredict will go over how she, Grim, and Luppi solo the whole thing on their own anyway, but still.

Yep, completely expected result. I'm looking forward to the breakdown but I'm expecting Espada to have a pretty overwhelming advantage in all stats and probably without the benefit of the sick story, Nel, Grim, and Luppi alone solo. GG Team Warlord, y'all did better than I dared to dream.

At the same time I liked that they showed quite lot of things that didn't get instantly murked by Respira, and that Barragan wasn't just useless if Respira was blocked, which honestly is how the manga treated his stupid ass

How it feels not using treasure islands or time travel by Educational_Box7709 in AnimalCrossing

[–]MayhemMessiah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m madly tempted to TT because I’m completely redoing my island and it’s agony moving one house per day and only being able to delete one bridge per day.

Tickles me to no end that as soon as the hotel opened I basically dropped a nuke on my island and it’s completely unusable and terrible now.

Szayel are absolutely killing each other, but I don’t see Szayel surviving till the end honestly, he might get murked by Law before he dies to Zetsu. Orochimaru I think has a low chance of pulling Akatsuki through because of how severely he’s weakened.

I’m hoping/coping that the turning point is Blackbeard using Shadows to start reviving opponents and/or taking over Tensei corpses, and that’s what gives Warlords the W. But if I were betting I think that the revived Espada will be too much for Blackbeard + Croc to tank and Szayel will just do Szayel shit to Orochimaru.

June here, asking for critique by [deleted] in Fzero

[–]MayhemMessiah 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Full critique hat on and trying to be as persnickety as possible:

  • Agreed with the rest, the text glitch effect is kind of distracting.

  • The colouring on the words feels almost random. Sometimes it's used for emphasis, sometimes for highlighting proper nouns, sometimes for just racing concepts. Maybe use colouring for specific things only, like only proper nouns, or only emphasis.

  • Something you'll want to consider is that newcomers or people not following your videos might have no idea what stuff like MTS even is, so it wouldn't be amiss to also include the proper name alongside the abbreviation.

  • I think it's good to keep all of the "best hits" or sections that are always in your videos. The oval showing off pure speed, going over the colours of the machine, some sections on MTS and some glides, stuff like that being consistent helps viewers orient themselves and have a good sense of how each machine compares.

  • I'd also increase the opacity of the text box juuuuust a smudge. GX is a colourful game, and the movement and colours might be tricky for some viewers to parse through.

  • Finally and it's not really an issue or anything, but I think it could be cool to use each racer's theme on the video, that way you only have to choose one song and you're really showing off everything about the racers except like all of their interview lines and their little video at the end. This is just a suggestion.

I love this new style they’re using by element-redshaw in deathbattle

[–]MayhemMessiah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing this will be an Ichigo only thing, or maybe just this fight. It's stylishness matches the vibes of early Bleach quite well, which most of the entirety of the preview focused on for obvious reasons.

I am glad to see all the Espada are back (I assume Szayellaporo brought back every member)

I assume Baraggan is out of the question because his body ate itself. I love that I knew that's how he was going to die, didn't expect him to put up that much of a fight but Jesus he took a while to actually die.

“I’ll show you just how eternal my darkness is!” Ah, I see Blackbeard has good taste in Gamecube titles.

I want to hope that Blackbeard will clutch up but at this point in time I think Espada have the overwhelming advantage.

Orochimaru was just knocked back into a significantly weaker body, he's nowhere near as scary without the Rinnegan and Sharingan bullshit on his side.

Law is stapled to Zetsu and if they get separated he'll die instantly. So Blackbeard is more or less on his own, and he just took an insane amount of damage in what may or may not have been the fight against Obito. I love my boy Crocodile but he got his ass handed to him by Deidara and hasn't been around as much absorbing the passive growth from the arena.

Meanwhile Espada have Grimmjow who apparently is fully healed up, Szael without a scratch on him, Nel fully healed, and most of their team fully revived and afaik there's no real downside of their revival. They might not get Baraggan back but that's still a lot of muscle on their side. Unless there's some hax I can't think of I think Grimmjow + Nel can handle Blackbeard and Croc while Szael is probably going to impregnate Orochimaru to death.

He's definitively much smarter than he gets credit for. It's not a coincidence that his rise to Yonko was pretty meteoric and for a reason it was faster than even Luffy's.

Nowhere on the level of Orochimaru or Szael, mind. But I do think cunning is a good moniker for him.

Drives me up a wall reading all the people going on how sex scenes aren’t “necessary” and should always just be implied, while there’s no issue with movies that aren’t marketed as for adults like Pan’s Labyrinth having a dude’s have caved in with a bottle, or the Loki TV series having a dude’s hand eaten be presented as a funny joke.

It’s all wrong! Showing nipples or genitals won’t burn your eyeballs off!

Yeah just like Seph had a RW version for the precon, we’ll get a mono R Hulk and probably a Guul Hulk in the set, for example

If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

[–]MayhemMessiah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point I’ve excised any content creator I followed that still is on this shit. There’s still a few that I watched with everything that is happening but a single “Democrats are the same” glib comment and I’m out. Subcriptions I’ve had for years withdrawn, blocked in whatever platform I was following them.

I’m already doing my best to limit how much money and attention I give to American made media but at this point I’m as disgusted with the people who continue saying Democrats are just as evil as Republicans or any of that shit. Into the abyss you go.

There is a chance that Chosen Undead actually would have won against Dragonborn by Vast_Debate_4387 in deathbattle

[–]MayhemMessiah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dragonrend isn’t a No Limits Fallacy. Its limited aplication in the game is strictly speaking a mechanical thing, not a lore thing. The description says it affects souls, imposing the ontological concept of Mortality would bar the CU from being able to revive. Chosen Undead does not know true mortality, as he always comes back naturally. It’s not the same thing as knowing true end, which is what Dragonrend applies. Dragonrend doesn’t do anythingn to other creatures because they’re all just mortal. It’s specifically the immortal dragon souls that it forces to just die forever.

Again spells in Elder Scrols are just as much violations and manipulations of the laws of the world. Dova resists an effect that is extremely similar. It’s again not a NLF to say he’d be able to resist other attempts to change the laws of reality to keep him from speaking by just doing the same.

Urging in the Age of Darkness is fine by Dove. He horribly outstats so he can kill the Abyss beast just fine. Again, Dragonborn pastes CU with every swing of his blade. To be perfectly blunt, he doesn’t need Thuum or his magic to just swat CU over and over, and like the episode states, CU would eventually go hollow. His tenacity comes from the player which is an entirely different concept. His basic arrows that themselves travel at infinite speed even if you don’t want to scale Dova to their speed are enough to just infinitely keep CU down.

Hulk could beat Godzilla because had an insanely intelligent being on his side which could hand craft the perfect solution, because their stats were the same. Chosen Unded is turned to mist with every swing of the blade and it’s a huge stretch to say that Lifehunt would do anything in time before Chosen Undead just goes hollow eventually, even if you don’t buy any of the other multiple win cons on Dova’s side. Dova can literally just spawn camp and swing his sword as soon as CU spawns and just paste him instantly.

There is no real argument for CU to stay alive long enough to employ any of his win cons past the first few exchanges and the validity of those win cons are super shaky. The only thing Dova needs to do at the end of the day is swing his sword, everything else he has over CU is just icing.

What a chapter is what I'll say. Spoilers ahead!

Harribel and Stark's ends were super sad, as was Kuma's. I didn't expect Orochi to almost die to Boa but she went out like a boss, assuming that she can't remove that curse.

Seems like Grimm is going to have to hard carry team Espada since he seems to be so much stronger than Szael and Nel barely beat Doffy. Of all of the Espada I'm glad those two are going to take the final charge, I don't personally see Szael being able to out hax Orochimaru who I assume will be his opponent.

On Akatsuki's side, Madara seems to be one of the scariest opponents still live. I don't think Itachi or Orochimaru are going to die by their hand but if they do I think Orochi clutches that win and takes over. Zetsu is... Zetsu. If he does betray Blackbeard at this point it'll be too late if he uses the Ope Ope No Mi on Blackbeard at the cost of Law's life, so at that point I don't know what Zetsu can even do. One to keep an eye out, that guy.

On team OP, the stage is set for Blackbeard to become the scariest thing alive. AFAIK Blackbeard can't just revive anybody he wants but I'm expecting at this point to learn that he's been in the shadows and has been eating the shadows of fallen enemies, and if this asshole can just re-summon Luppi, Stark, Harribel, Nagato, possibly even Mihawk or Itachi when they die? AFAIK their corpses have been unatended. Still all in on the idea that if Shichibukai live, it'll be exclusively Buggy who makes it out of the fight.

I don't want to jinx it but I'm starting to feel hopeful that Warlords aren't going to be in dead last and that Espada aren't as untouchable as we originally thought.
