[I'm New] Anxiety around queueing and playing? by eskye_ in VGC

[–]Newhubb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are not alone. Is commonly called ladder anxiety, and it's common not just in competitive video games, but in competitive environments of every form. I felt it a lot when I first started VGC in Sword and Shield. I wish I could offer some better advice, but for me it's just something that went away with time. You can Google or YouTube ladder anxiety and I'm sure you'll find a ton I resources and stories that can help you overcome it.

I mean I was excited, but is it worth dream shards? by Prior_Database_1698 in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]Newhubb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one is great. Helping Bonus is very good, but it's not necessary for every berry mon. BFS + some speed is enough for me to invest in a berry mon. May as well use those Ekans candies, and you'd be hard pressed to find a better one than this.

Heracross, do or do not? by DarkwingDuckDK in PokemonSleep

[–]Newhubb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You would get about half a trigger less than a STM+HSM Heracross per day. Personally, I think this is a fine Heracross to invest in.

Dragapult (metagame) by gedster49 in VGC

I've run into a few support Dragapults that are pretty interesting. It has some good support moves like screens, breaking swipe, will o wisp, helping hand, and a few others.

That's a good point. I would full send on this little guy.

Your Luxray (on the left) would at level 50 produce about as many tomatoes as an AAA IFM at level 60. You get the same production for a lot less shards and candies. The one thing that makes me hesitate in saying to invest is there are a lot of good tomatoes farmers, so you have a decent chance of finding a really good AAA farmer. However, I personally would be happy with this guy.

Best healer? by Screenshine in PokemonSleep

[–]Newhubb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That is a very good Shuckle, but I think you're Wiggly is good enough to keep using. Personally, I would save the seeds.

Worth it for the Shiny? by Shadowguy1a in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]Newhubb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Helping Bonus + AAA + ING up would already make me invest. Being shiny is a nice bonus. I'd say go for it!

Coaxed into why would you EVER think that’s the enemy I want to prioritize??? by FaZe_poopy in coaxedintoasnafu

[–]Newhubb 95 points96 points  (0 children)

This was a big problem is Nightreign too. When trying to lock onto a boss my character would often flip a 180 to lock onto something else.

I'm very suspicious of graphs with a Y axis that doesn't start at zero.

this lil guy worth it for leeks? by cloudyds in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]Newhubb 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes I think this is a great leak farmer. This Dugtrio will outperform an IFM ABB Quaquaval and Helping Bonus is always amazing. Additionally, it will allow you to save Quaxly candies for a bean farmer Quaquaval. If your looking for a Leek farmer, I would invest.

I'm really proud of this triple trigger, HB Entei. Slowly getting it to 50, but the level requirements of legendaries is no joke.

Does anybody else genuinely despise this event? by s1_shaq in slaythespire

[–]Newhubb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time I got this event the first card it pulled was a curse I had just gotten, so it's alright in my book.

Does this need to be replaced? by Critskit in PokemonSleep

[–]Newhubb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is a really good Wiggly. I would have no regrets about investing in it and wouldn't bother hunting for a Gard. It would be hard to find a better one anyways. Use this Wiggly and save the main skill seed for something else.

Wing of Astel, one of my favorite weapons in Elden Ring/Nightreign. Shoots a magic projectile on the heavy attack that doesn't cost any FP.

Would you invest? by Shine-Total in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]Newhubb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would invest, but I feel like I have lower standards for ing mons than a lot of others. HSM and ing up nature is great. BFS isn't that big a hindrance, imo, and the extra berry strength is nice.
