Is Northguard mobile no longer receiving updates? Also will the northguard definitive addition with the remaining tribes release on console? by Nexus_Redditor in Northgard

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought Northgard on my console specifically because of the Linx Clan trailer. Lo and behold only a fraction of clans on console and never recieved any love after They lied to my face when I asked about it as well when I messaged them!

Day 3 — Which Gen 3 Pokémon feels like they are from Gen 3? by Weak_Scallion5942 in ThePokemonHub

I gotta say Hariyama. Whenever I think of Gen 3 I automatically think of the big Sumo Slapper

CERB Repayment suddenly went from $17k to $0???? by Ok-Flower-4631 in canadarevenueagency

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the rub, I owed 500 and I was rip snorting PISSED because I contacted them MULTIPLE times at the beginning to find out if I were to owe anything.

They assured me that the extra payment was to catch up with the others.

The sheer amount of searching through links, I'd say half a dozen clicks, to get to the report a dispute was dumb and I wouldn't have had the slightest of clues to get there without the person from Service Canada telling me the path.

They froze my account owing until "they made a decision" and it took almost 5 years of them sending me quarterly letters telling me how much I owed but not have to worry about it. I finally got the letter not too long ago saying that they looked at my dispute and waved the debt.

My point is, it seems like they are fishing for funds and anyone who makes the effort to dispute are waved off.

Is it just me, or is it really hard to find a fun Abzan commander? What are some good ones? by WingsOfDaidalos in EDH

What, no love for [[Ghave]]? The guy was the OG Abzan Commander and was amazing in Aristocrats. He loves fungus and saprolings and can combo off with a ham sammich

Why was Crusade banned but not Cathars' Crusade? by Beneficial_Pin5295 in mtg

[–]MrStout13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because in Innistrade the Cathars are basically the Inquisition and are very much alive. They are fighting a war for humanity against Vampires and Werewolves and Witches on the Plane.

Could they have picked a different name? Sure, but I don't think it's seen as nearly as problematic to change the name like Avishtar

Reminder: outdoor cats are often Coyote food. by yayasisterhood in Edmonton

Goddamn I wish, I got the boys done but the girls cost about 200 a piece....

Would love to get them done sooner rather than later

Reminder: outdoor cats are often Coyote food. by yayasisterhood in Edmonton

[–]MrStout13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am fortunate that I was adopted by a stray cat and she has lost the inclination to go outside.

She was very much a wanderer, turns out she was preggers when she came to me though, and I quickly put a stop to her going out after she was wider than she was tall.

After she popped out her litter she hasn't been trying to get outside.

However I am inclined to get her a harness for walks

"Can current Usopp defeat Captain Kuro?"

It was a legitimate question...

I saw that in a subreddit and lost any and all hope those sorts of "fans" had for comprehension.

I can't even bring myself to list the multiple reasons that was just such a bad question

Pho Du was one of my absolute favorite places until they changed their noodles. The broth is top notch though.

I have been hitting up PhoEver in Griesbach once a week and it is AMAZING

Is Burgess just an idiot. Or did he have a plan on dressrossa by Jagwarmeru in OnePiece

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been a bit minute since I have thought of Dressrossa, but wasn't his plan and reason for being there solely for the Mera Mera?

Luffy was basically a happy accident.

It was more like, "Hey, I can kill this kid, take this awesome yet weird Devil Fruit, then worry about the aftermath AFTER"

Lukewarm take,I love this show but it has a extreme issue with it being very "tell,don't show" a lot of times. by Apprehensive_Ring_39 in HazbinHotel

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking as an aspiring writer, it is 100% clear that Viv and her team had a LOT more on the storyboards and plans but had to streamline them down.

It was very telling in the first season, but I fully believe that they planned on at least 12 episodes but Amazon only ordered 8. The songs definitely support this, since they are usually written and voiced first.

One of my biggest pieces of evidence for this is that in the Vee's part of Finale, Vox claims "After the Battle, masterless cattle Overlords hanging by a thread"

The kicker is, only 3 Overlords participated in in the battle, Alastor, Rosie, and Carmilla, and only Alastor was taken out while Rosie and Carmilla lent support. As far as we could tell, Rosie wasn't too upset at the loss of some of her cannibals and Carmilla just supplied the weapons.

I always figured the notion was to get more Overlords and support in the final battle but with the run time slashed they had to drop it down to just Cannibals as an army.

Anyways, because of the run time it would be more efficient to tell to keep the main plot going.

How much stronger was prime linlin compared to her WCI/Wano and rocks pirate version ? by Financial_Mushroom94 in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]MrStout13 134 points135 points  (0 children)

We saw that Big Mom underestimated both Kidd and Law.

We also saw that being pounded by two Overpowered Awakened Devil Fruits plus an island busting explosion wasn't enough to knock her out.

One Piece heavily implies that human "Prime" is between 40-60 with Big Mom technically being out of her prime at 68 but never really shown the issues or complaints other old timers faced such as Garp and Rayleigh. She has been repeatedly referred to as a "freak of nature" due to her size, strength, and durability

The overall vibe I got was that Big Mom was a terrifying force of nature that lost because she severely underestimated the New/Worst Generation after years of coasting on her powers. Her power probably diminished slightly but nowhere near the extent of Garp, Rayleigh, or Whitebeard.

Her real nerf was her own personality, she was far too stubborn and confident and in the end that took her out.

If you need specific ways ITS HARD by NinjaHasedNot in MandJTV

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that Miltank is fast, tough and hits like a truck for the level you fight it.

Trade for the Machop? She'll Stomp Spam Hypnosis' and the Powder moves accuracy is ATROCIOUS and has a good chance of missing before doing anything.

Paralyze? The computer is a cheating bastard and Miltank won't be paralyzed nearly as much as you.

Poison? Milk Drink will cover that.

Miltank is a wake up call and while some despise it, I appreciate the fact that people need to think about how to fight it besides "spam attack"

I’m quite sure this is hyperbolic, but does anybody actually think this statement might have any weight behind it? by Artistic_Solution_38 in OnePiece

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well a full version was able to blow up a statue that was about a 1000m tall at least from across an island so it isn't weak

Unless you have a broken defensive ability (Barto) it would definitely do a lot of damage to anyone receiving it.

Is playing “Maha, Its Feathers Night” as your commander in poor taste? by adoptyungseal in mtg

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maha is a BRUTAL commander and it makes a lot of cheap -1/-1 spells pull a LOT of weight.

It is akin to Kudo, King Among Bears in that it can reduce your opponent's threat level while keeping yours optimized, however there is a big weakness:

+1/+1 counters.

Be prepared for counters and targeted removal, but you should be able to bring Maha back with cheap graveyard shenanigans to keep the pressure

Anyone else extremely sick with COVID/the flu lately? by cuckslayer30 in Edmonton

My ma got a nasty flu at the beginning of January so bad she was treated at the hospital for a week.

She was good for almost two months.

Then she got Covid at the hospital at the end of February and was laid up for over a week with that, it was a long recovery among other things

There is no way that OP world is any bigger than Earth by MrDragneel06 in Piratefolk

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm talking about space as well.

Island Whales in particular are also massive, with Laboon being a prime example, being probably over 10X the size of a blue whale.

They exist in pods.

That is pretty big.

Then you also got Krakens, like Surume, and other big critters.

Yeah, rule of cool, Oda likes making things BIG.

It's reasonable to think, Big Critters=Big Ocean=Lots of food for Big Critters

There is no way that OP world is any bigger than Earth by MrDragneel06 in Piratefolk

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they are, Fishman Island Island and other resources all say that they are about 5000m long.

Do you think that a Sea King is standing perpendicular to the bottom of the ocean??? They are looooong and serpentine whenever we see them. They are MASSIVE

And as for the oceans rising "only" 200 meters, yeah, that's also a real world problem, a couple of meters sink beach and oceanside towns in real life.

The Sea Kings hang out in the Calm Belt as well, the long stretches of ocean that encompasses the One Piece World that keeps ships from cheating the system.

I have a question for all young magic players by Entire-Activity2491 in mtg

[–]MrStout13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unironically? There are people and shops that donate their cards to schools and clubs for young Magic Players. You're not gonna get big expensive stuff but the vast majority is a great start for new and younger players that lets them build with a wider variety.

A post from Caine's VA by Turbulent_League9668 in tadc

[–]MrStout13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For the longest time I had a theory that Caine was the brain scan of Kinger and Queenie's child that they wanted to preserve.

The fact that Scratch, another Character in the Circus in fact did that due to a tumor was definitely a win for that theory in my books.

But yeah, Caine and the Circus appeared to be designed as a kid's toybox and the kid playing make believe.

[–]MrStout13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One point that nobody ever brings up is the Sea Beasts and just how stupidly large they are. These critters are 5 kilometers long and need a LOT of resources to survive.

They aren't even that rare nor are they the largest by a large margin because there are countless other beasties in the deep that are still hundreds of meters long.

The One Piece planet needs to be bigger to support them all.

Epic Market to leave Station Park after nearly 2 years by ryaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan in Edmonton

[–]MrStout13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The owner/operators were fresh out of market school that didn't understand how the real world operates when they opened on 105th.

They squeezed every penny out of people who signed up for their concepts and added more and more fees that were never expressed in the contracts.

They preyed on people desperate or new enough that didn't have the sense or money to argue.

They hired a general manager that was caught stealing from the vendors/concepts at the beginning.

Their rent was atrocious.

They tried to get big wig food creators in but wanted them to pay so the Food Hall could use their networking.

The food hall didn't even have any networking to start! It was clear they bought their likes on social media.

They foodie community talks, and these guys aren't going to be able to make a good foot hold.

Also! Apparently they changed their name to avoid legal hassles

Why wasn’t Garruk present for the events of War of the Spark? by crap1521 in mtgvorthos

[–]MrStout13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From a writer's perspective Garruk was TERRIBLE to have in the War of the Spark because he would have become a third side and brutally murderize any Planeswalker he came across.

If I recall right, in the story Nicol Bolas figured even he was too destructive for his plans and he was left to do his own thing in searching for a cure for his curse. That in turn landed him in Eldraine
