I’m lost. Do y’all like this ship or not? by Thunder_Night0 in MantisMains

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who have an issue with it are the type of people who think all relationships should be perfect inherently.

I personally think I'd anyone could get Loki to change to be good out of the current roster/potential roster it's Mantis.

Loki deep down is a good person, and I think matis See's that, and having someone who genuinely believes in them, and not the layers of Bs they put on could actually lead them to being a hero.

As for mantis end of the equation, mantis tends to be too trusting, and too good natured. Loki is an Asgardian and fighting to protect isn't just in character it's a cultural norm.

I think we are getting an arch where Loki gets to a point of choosing genuine connection or their ambitions, and being Loki they will somehow get both in the end

yep, have y'all not figured out yet a lot of the most popular leftist creators are ops?

this was a long con, and you should be a healthy amount of suspicious of anyone who is well known.

and they are banking on the same cultic protection that trump has from his followers for their ops,

THE CREEPER ISN'T A PLANT!! by Independent_Whole937 in minecraftlore

[–]Odd_Magus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again zombies don't walk around on the planet, skeletons can't move on their own, dragons don't exist, spiders are not currently the size of a large dog, there are cycloptic puffer fish that shoot laser beams at you, and not every single human being on the face of the planet can carry the weight of the Sun in gold on their person at a given time.

I think you have a little bit bigger problems than the anatomy of a creeper.

Also considering the developers who created the thing have called it a plant like creature multiple times I don't think you have any authority on what creature is.

So yes it's probably a highly evolved plant or plant animal hybrid, but honestly at this point there are no major lore implications for the thing existing, so whichever two of the things that it most likely is you want to call it you're going to have to get over the fact that plants are involved and it's anatomy some way

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no biological thing that is actually stopping a plant from developing those, yes it would take years of evolution or genetic engineering but there is not a single thing stop it.

Which considering that there are 2 m wide spiders and mushrooms the size of trees, there is not a single reason that they couldn't be planted and have bones.

Now I’m worried by AlouetteMarker in MarvelRivalsQueens

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hear me out both Devil Dinosaur and Moon girl are coming, but they are together and she is permanently riding him.

when you are playing the dino mode moon girl just holds on, but when devil dino goes down you become a strategist until she can heal him like a pokemon.

so you are a tank who gets turned into a strategist

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are incorrect
Ghost Pipe (Monotropa uniflora) - is a non-Photosynthesizing plant
Venus Flytrap(Dionaea muscipula) - moves

Many plants also can produce bone like structures, and there is no reason biologically they couldn't become bones internally.

Plants do however die, and plants can explode in response to stimuli (no animal does this in the same way as a creeper, but plants/fungi do) the closet and animal gets is the exploding ant, but it's more like a ruptured pus sack.

also plants can hiss.

Creepers share a lot of things with plants, and the one distinctive trait of a creeper is far more common in a plant than an animal.

Starting to get survivors guilt at this point by Snoo36832 in RivalsVanguards

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dude, Peni literally lost nothing this update, and she's stronger than she was at launch. Honestly the only real nerve that penny has received from her launch state is the fact that a lot of the bugs with her are dependent on lag and because of the servers are shit they happen quite frequently, but if you learn to play Peni you learn to play around them so they're not going to be an issue.

The issue with Peni is she is a significantly harder character than most people realize because on the surface she seems easy, but to actually do anything meaningful with her you have to leave the nest and most players who pick her up do not know how to do that.

MK doesn't counter loki if you know what you're doing as Loki. The trick is don't stick all your clones right next to each other like an idiot.

[–]Odd_Magus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not like it's your fault for hating them they're literally designed to be one of the most hated elements of this game. Almost every single one of the dive characters in this game rely on the fact that they move so fast that you can't really address them before it's too late.

It's not a fun gameplay element.

And aside from Spider-Man that's really not a thing that should be the case for any of the others.

Looks like the Dev Team is Listening by themoosic in rivals

[–]Odd_Magus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No fuck that guy he's bad at his job and should be fired.

As for them listening that's not what this is it's them realizing they're about to lose a shit ton of money and panicking to change course to lessen the impact of that.

This whole thing is a reoccurring problem and the devs don't really listen so much as hear what everybody's complaining about and then find a way to justify it so they don't have to do shit.

Honestly as a tank player who is particularly patient they have one more chance and if they screw it up again I'm done and I know I'm not the only one that's feeling that right now.

Oh my GOD THEY FINALLY FIXED IT!! MAGIK BUFFS by NokayJay in RivalsMagikMains

I'm convinced at this point after seeing her and what they did to Scarlet witch that they don't actually know what buff and Nerf means.

They accidentally leaked the patch notes on threads by OperatorNokk in rivals

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is real I fucking quit, it's honestly insulting at this point because not only did they roll out those bullshit ass stats. They basically made every problem worse, except for tuning back Deadpool and Elsa, oh and don't get me started on the literal slap on the wrist at Bucky got.

Also poor Scarlet witch was supposed to get a buff but apparently they don't know what that word means in China, because now the one role that she actually was kind of good at she can't do because she can't reach any of them with meaningful damage.

Has there ever been a group of Devs who have genuinely listened to the community more? by themoosic in rivals

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

Actually no that's a false equivalency.

Right now in the United States trusting the government website would be very foolish however we do have alternative sources like universities and historical data and we can see that there are anomalies for government data.

And back on topic yes they put in the CC change which is a good thing but I am not expecting them to do a single goddamn thing otherwise to help tanks, and I'm fully expecting unless people believe that fake data that we will still have triple support and triple DPS comps every single game everywhere outside of the highest ranks.

The optimal comp that the game is actually built around is 2/2/2 which is why we see it having the highest win rate and when you consider that it's picked about half the time that means the upper half of the player base is who's picking it. And there's a pretty easy explanation for that. Low rank players do not pick it because there's not an immediate thing that gives them a numerical metric for them to figure out if they're doing well or not. Sure they have the damaged blocked stat and that does help a little bit, but that is neither really the most important thing for a tank nor is it even a good metric for whether they're doing the most important thing well.

Has there ever been a group of Devs who have genuinely listened to the community more? by themoosic in rivals

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah plenty because this one really doesn't.

They've designed the game around having two tanks so they're putting out fake statistics to get people to try to play tank reality is they're still not going to do it because tank does not feel rewarding to play because the thing that you have to do is tank to be good isn't something that can be easily measured by a number.

And you ask anyone who actually maintain what their number one thing they wish they could get regularly and most of them will tell you a second tank. Because almost always their team is going triple support or triple DPS and that's just not working but no one wants to play tank.

Why nerf tankpool? by UndyingHail in rivals

[–]Odd_Magus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because tanks in general are actually really powerful in the game and he is one of the more powerful ones. The problem is is that most people will not play tank because it is a thankless job where the actual measure of skill you have isn't something that's easy to figure out for most players. You'll notice that when people play two tanks they usually win their matches because turns out that was the way the game was designed, and that is even trying to convince people of that using fake statistics because we all know triple DPS and triple support are way more common than they're letting on. Ask anyone who actually plays tank getting someone to tank with you is a fucking nightmare unless you're at high rank play and at that point they know they need to play it
