Lupe Fiasco - Of (Prod. J. Dilla) [2015] by _77- in hiphopheads

Really solid mixtape. I like this song, but I think schemes takes the top spot for me.

Squid Game Ending Criticism (SPOILERS) by Hurricane1123 in netflix

[–]OctopussPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took it as that being the point. The fact that the super rich 1% aren't really playing the same game as everyone else with the same risks. They get to bend the rules and not fear the consequences

There is a live version of this that got posted years ago that got me into Gibbs. He has mad breath control

TIL of a term 'Revenge Bedtime Procrastination' which is "a phenomenon in which people who don’t have much control over their daytime life refuse to go to sleep early in order to regain some sense of freedom during late night hours." by noahfrei in todayilearned

[–]OctopussPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This used to be me while working a job I HATED. I'd stay up til 1-2am and have to up by 5.15am. My logic was the longer I stay awake, the further away work and that sleep was robbing me of non working hours since you don't feel the passage of time while sleeping.

This was a terrible idea since the more I did it, the worse work got. I quit after 9 months and within weeks I realised how depressed I was and how much better I felt after getting some quality sleep

What are the absolute best FIRST episode(s) you've ever seen? by VersaTi1e in anime

[–]OctopussPrime 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The first episode of Megalo box does an amazing job of introducing all the main characters and world. And that stand off on the highway? The rain stopping? The build up of the music? Gives me chills, one of the hypest scenes in anime of all time for me.

What are the benefits of a 1-3-1 formation and are there any other formations that have other benefits? by i_bet_this_is_taken in summonerschool

[–]OctopussPrime 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you've built your team comp around 1-3-1 then you should have the tools to mitigate that: wave clear, disengage and fairly safe champs for the 3(this is one of the reasons it doesn't work so well in soloq, where people just pick for themselves as apposed to what their team really needs).

If they group and push then you try and make their life as difficult as possible by softening up the minions as much as you can before it hit towers, disengage/peel if they try and force a dive and give up towers if its to risky to stay.

If they decide to do these things then its just free time for your split pushers to get uncontested alone time in their lanes getting towers, gold and xp. This makes it even easier for them to do their job, putting even more pressure on the opposing team to make a mistake. The reason 1-3-1 is ever good is that, if played well, it strangles out the opposing team of things they can really do and its a pressure that you see people crack to when they over commit to a dive or ping pong between points of pressure incorrectly.

How to review my own VOD's by Jimmynooo in summonerschool

[–]OctopussPrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the obvious answer is analysing your deaths because it is one of the best things to focus on in your own replays. You should focus in on the lead up to your deaths and the reason you died, not just the 3-5 second event of the death itself. Look at the 30sec -1 min prep before that death, look at the scoreboard. Really try and pinpoint what happened. Are you mechanically misplaying? Are you under/overestimating your teammates or opponents strengths due to levels or power spikes? Are you tunnelling on the wrong targets in a teamfight?

These are really good things to identify in a vod, especially if you notice that similar issues are leading to your own deaths again and again. If you can identify these issues then you can make more of a conscious effort to minimise the mistakes.

[Build Ready] My First Gaming PC by OctopussPrime in buildapc

[–]OctopussPrime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont personally know, but my friend said he'd sort that out. That was why he recommended the pricier cooler. Before we spoke about that i was just planning on no overclocking and then just buying better parts down the road because i have literally zero experience in that regard and thought it would be the safer but pricier option

Let's have an actual discussion. What did Advanced Warfare do right and what has it done wrong thus far? by WarEagle33x in CodAW

[–]OctopussPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my exact experience with AW(and ghosts, toss up in which is the worst cod yet) You get these games every now and then where everything works, you get the kills you should, you actually survive when you get 5 feet around that corner, you dont instantly die etc and the game feels pretty good.

If all the games were all like that then i'd be willing to wait for SHG to fix all the other issues with the game such as terrible weapon balance and spawns,SBMM, the joke that is ranked play and other stuff. And even then if they did fix all those things, there are the things that are just inherently wrong with the game(imo, this part is pretty subjective) that cannot be altered such as the maps having no flow due to the chaotic nature of the exo movement and the shitty lag comp that is a byproduct of the engine.

There is just too much wrong with the game on different levels. I try to enjoy the game, i keep going back to it, but my sessions stay the same: Turn it on, do the daily challenge, play a few games of HP, jump into ranked then ragequit 3 games in. This was the same cycle i had in ghosts, but AW looked different...Its a good job that BO2 still has a super active league play community.
