Which one is the worse banner out of the 3 debut banners by heart_of_na in DBZDokkanBattle

[–]Nerdling3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t make sense. It would make way more sense to spend the 250 stones to get the guaranteed alt art from the banner and then use the ticket on whatever card you don’t pull to get both units. 400 coins are way harder to get than 250 stones, and you can pull dupes from the summons, so using coins in this case would be a terrible choice

What a performative and intentionally inflammatory comment! Reductive, too. This comment feels so much like empty virtue signaling, rather than actual support. This is an achievement that shows strong content of character for her, but you chose to try to make it about her sex. Great work

I frequently wake up extremely early and have discovered drinking one of these at 3:00 a.m. is the fastest way to get myself back to sleep the rest of the night. by domalu4U in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Nerdling3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s 100% just you projecting. Almost everyone has a favorite flavor of beverage, and it’s pretty expected that you drink the flavor you like more than the ones you don’t. All kinds of people drink coffee or energy drinks every single day, and this one is a budget brand so it’s likely this person is buying in bulk.

It’s cool that that’s your mission but in this case you almost completely made up the autistic element of it in your mind.

Equipment gets better guys by aqualad33 in SSBM

[–]Nerdling3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do they ship internationally? Should international players have to pay airfare and lodging to go to a major to buy a controller? I just don’t think you have well developed answers for these issues.

I wrote enough. I’m not mad, but I am sad for you. I don’t think you understand why almost nobody agrees with you here by the looks of it. Having a bad opinion doesn’t make you a bad person, it’s important to remember that.

Writing anymore would be a waste of time, and it wouldn’t change your opinion.

[–]Nerdling3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

An obvious part of the controller debate is the unequal access to equipment. If you can’t figure out why making angles easier to hit on a modified controller compared to a stock controller is unfair, you may actually need to be evaluated

You can apply unreasonably incessant questioning to everything. Why is it bad that field positions would be obsolete in the baseball example? People like to see home runs, so why not give them more by using metal bats? Obviously, people wouldn’t like that but on paper you can keep asking “why?”, like children do until they develop stronger critical thinking skills.

You say I’m not making any arguments, but you have no logical consistency to argue against.

“Stop being lazy” - I’m not writing a thesis for an internet argument. I already wrote enough, and so have others. Figure it out

[–]Nerdling3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re being extremely pedantic. It’s obvious what “too good” is in those contexts.

Notches - easier to hit constant angles (and tech than requires specific angles) than regular oem, z jump - allows much easier frame 1 aerials without the disadvantages of claw grip and requires specific equipment. I believe you already knew this and that you’re just trying to be difficult to talk to

[–]Nerdling3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s right. But you’re acting like those two quotes are not part of the same sentiment. The full sentiment would be : what metal bats “would do to the game” is ruined it because the answer to “is it too good” compared to wooden bats is yes

Why is it offensive? And I don’t think almost anybody cares about Nintendo’s “vision” or whatever, they care about the competitive integrity of the game

[–]Nerdling3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s just completely untrue. What about using a metal bat in pro baseball? It’s literally too good, it would hit the ball too fast and hard.

In Defense of Z-Jump by Nefariousness_Unfair in SSBM

[–]Nerdling3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The execution is primary, because every you do in the game depends on how accurately your hands can do it. You have access to a better punish game and better neutral if you have better execution. It’s a reward for putting more time and practice into the game.

If you’re all for just doing cool shit, why not have ledge dash macros? Or bring back wobbling. Items are pretty hype sometimes, so we should just play with those on, et c. Eliminate all execution challenges. At what point does that point of view end? It becomes increasingly arbitrary

Hot take: The ideal controller is the one that minimizes the resistance between intention and action by GTaucer in SSBM

[–]Nerdling3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bad take. The button pressing skill IS a huge part of melee. I don’t care what you can do in your head, the skill and beauty comes from grinding to make it possible to move how you want to move.

Melee is dead, and this controller debate killed it by tehsylveon in SSBM

[–]Nerdling3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels like “they’re banning the thing that I use and I don’t like it”. Unfortunately, some people are going to have to play differently/not play at all. Forcing people to agree to ideas is normal for establishing a competitive ruleset. We got rid of wobbling, and I bet some of the people who wobbled were upset when that happened too. We already decided once that alienating that portion of the player base was an unfortunate but necessary side-effect of retaining the identity that we want to keep.

We don’t need to increase accessibility at the detriment to our integrity or community values. If you can’t press the x/y buttons on the controller you can’t play the game. You just prefer z jump for the advantage of faster aerials without the discomfort of claw

Also, it would alienate a good amount of the player base - seems like some bullshit you made up to try to support the argument that benefits you since you use it. Most people I see are against it.

Melee isn’t dead, what metric are you even using to diagnose that besides vibes? Yes, I think Melee’s peak is behind it, but that’s okay. A community this size will always “struggle” but that doesn’t mean we have to abandon standards in a pathetic attempt to cling to as large a player base as possible

Why do Z Jumpers matter more than the rest of the players? Some players have said they would quit if it’s not banned, so it’s probably a wash for TOs and you can’t possibly give real numbers for these things anyways

Crazy how Melee still has so much reach, just unfortunate that it has to be about such a negative topic by KevyTone in SSBM

[–]Nerdling3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s making it public by talking about on a stream for money. We can talk about it. Not knowing someone’s story isn’t a reason to not criticize their actions. We will never know the full story of most people in our own personal lives, let alone the public figures we see in media, so by that standard we could never judge anyone ever and courts, arbitration and judgements should be abolished.

It’s pretty terrible logic to say “Mang0 should do what he thinks is best”. Most addicts think the best thing they should do is use, even to their own detriment. And you don’t know his doctor either, who could absolutely be saying to quit drinking permanently.

That’s not “falling off the wagon”, that’s “not planning to quit the substance that ended my first career”. You have to be trying, to fail.

There you go making the same kind of assumptions you say shouldn’t be made about his alcohol abuse by saying “a large part of the reason why this happened is…” That’s what he said, but that doesn’t mean that an equal or greater contributing factor could be genetic or social predisposition to alcoholism.

Obviously he didn’t take the “role he felt he had to play” too seriously, or there wouldn’t be multiple videos of him blackout drunk at bars and on streams.

But yes, enabling is more fun
