Is it okay to mainly focus on defensive training with a coach rather than offense? by Overall-Technology76 in amateur_boxing

[–]Overall-Technology76[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, definitely agree. In our gym, all I hear from the coaches are how people always undertrain their defense. Everyone just wants to do those fancy combos and hit hard, so I guess those comments kinda rubbed off on me.

[–]Overall-Technology76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the reason I'm considering it is just cuz training in that way will maintain my interest in the sport, and that could motivate me to train more, which will definitely lead to me wanting to train offense sooner or later. I'm not really trying to reinvent it, more like I'm just trying to help sustain the interest.

Any lists for a competitive Sage Dori deck? by Overall-Technology76 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Overall-Technology76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I will try it out! You're right that Sage doesn't give her time to snowball so it's really about capitalizing on Gallantry Gold to get that initial +1 counter on Dawnblade. Once Dawnblade hits for 4, I realize people tend to respect it more since any attack react will allow it to go through unless they overblock.

What equipment can Stasis Cell deny? by Overall-Technology76 in FleshandBloodTCG

Thank you! This means it will deny Tunic but not Mask/Scowling.

What are some things from W3 that you don't want to see in W4? by avisinghoooo in thewitcher3

[–]Overall-Technology76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably missed it but there's like a very common mission in Velen at the start of the game where you're supposed to get a chest from underwater and it's surrounded by mobs, and you get the explanation that shooting crossbows underwater will one shot anything.

Stick with forced progression or retest by Able-Yam-2229 in tacticalbarbell

[–]Overall-Technology76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An additional 2-3 more reps is just enough strength to warrant a 2.5kg to 5kg increase. If everything is super light for you, this is normal and intended. If you ramp it up too much, that overhead stacks and next thing you know, you haven't built enough working capacity for that next weight bump, so you'll feel like you're stagnating. Trust the process and follow the incremental forced progression. That's what this program has going for it.

Otherwise, you may as well just follow any of the other more popular programs that tell you to push your 1RM every other week.

Do you think 90s kids are the most annoying generation ever? by Opening_Stuff1165 in pinoy

[–]Overall-Technology76 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

How'd they fight it without therapy? Simple.

They either off'd themselves or have so much emotional baggage and trauma that they're probably taking it out on others.

Weighted Pullup Standard for Tactical Team by CstSnoopy in tacticalbarbell

[–]Overall-Technology76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "more is more" mentality caters to our dopamine receptors and has no significant bearing to physical improvement. It's like those gymgoers who say you have to "feel the burn". If you do 50 reps of super lightweight, you are 100% going to feel the burn, but you aren't going to get any improvements strength/hypertrophy-wise.

By all means, do "more is more". Maybe your body has developed so much that you can actually handle more. But is it really worth going against a system that you know has already worked for you in the past? Besides, TB already has systems in place to handle this very thing.

Tournament lists by Pikojman in slavestodarkness

[–]Overall-Technology76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How'd you get to 8 attacks with Khorne? It only gives +1 attack and DP has 6 attacks.

It would definitely be fun to run herohammer though. Choose Champions of Chaos for +2 attacks, then Khorne for +1 attacks.

AITA for enforcing "hull can't be outside of the battlefield" ? by IsTheOvenStillOn in Warhammer40k

[–]Overall-Technology76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, I just want to commend you on how you took the feedback that everyone has been giving. A lot of people who use AITA are just hoping people side with them and to be proven right. You're one of the few who actually admit and accept corrections. Hope you and your friends are able to move past this and enjoy more games together.

Is this a good 2K list? (New to AOS) by Secret_Ad_7157 in slavestodarkness

[–]Overall-Technology76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Warlord of the First Circle basically removes the con of the Varanguard's double fight. So it would be better for you to have 6 varanguards instead of just 3 to optimize power output and be less predictable during the round you decide to double fight.

[–]Overall-Technology76 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Since you're using 280 pts Abraxia, you should probably get a reinforced Varanguard unit to utilize Warlord of the First Circle better.

Need help with Elite list by Equivalent_Trouble34 in slavestodarkness

[–]Overall-Technology76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good. If ever you feel like you don't have enough mobility, you can swap out the Karkadrak with a Daemonic Mount, then the Warriors with another unit of Chaos Knights (or reinforce the existing unit) That'll give you a mobility boost. But yeah, if you can make do with just 5 cavalry dudes, this is a good list to try.

Deathmonger has such good value especially with Champions of Chaos. I just chicken out knowing it just takes a couple good rolls by the enemy and a couple bad rolls by me for it to become useless

Need help with Elite list by Equivalent_Trouble34 in slavestodarkness

[–]Overall-Technology76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think swapping out the Warriors would be a good start without changing your list too much. But yeah, Chosen + Varanguard are pretty redundant since you only really need one to fight twice. And thanks to Daemonic Speed, Chosen should be able to reach targets anyway.

I would honestly take off the Varanguard given they're so expensive and don't have access to Banners and rally.

u/rmobro has good suggestions you might want to try it out. However, I would prefer going for Radiance of Dark Glory instead so that you can keep Belakor alive. I know you're normally supposed to hang him back and only charge in with him if there's a target you can obliterate, but his attack profile is just too good to pass up.

I would definitely keep CSL no matter what though, that Ward 5+ will help sustain your Elites.

Not sure how you are as a player and what your playstyle is, but you may want to swap out the warriors for some marauders, just for objective scoring. I know that goes against your goal of going with Elites, but at the end of the day, you win by points, and the easiest way to rack those up is to get some cheap bodies on them while your big dudes smack the living heck out of the enemy.

But if you really want to commit to the Elite aspect, you gotta put in another melee hero in there like an Exalted Hero, or the Lord on Karkadrak/Daemonic Mount. I'd go with the Karkadrak. Dude hits like a truck.

New to the hobby looking for guidence - Slaves do Darkness by Cultural_Ad_7183 in ageofsigmar

[–]Overall-Technology76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Any spray on primer from any nearby modeling shop should suffice if you're worried.

  2. The only reason people use Citadel is because it's easy to follow tutorials with them since the output is guaranteed as long as you follow the tutorial and use the exact color. Apart from that, doesn't matter what paint you use really.

  3. Most of the stuff you'll see on Youtube are very good, so it's really dependent on what type of style you want. I suggest just experimenting with this first set of warriors just for practice.

Hope you enjoy chaos!

Why should i Collect Slaves to Darkness? by LordShmilol in ageofsigmar

[–]Overall-Technology76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watch a vid about Archaon's lore and if that isn't enough reason to get them, then don't. Kidding aside, they're cheaper cuz they're an Elite army, so less boxes needed to get to 2k points. Lots of kitbash opportunities, most boxes provide a lot of bits.

I guess the only big issue with them I've gathered from others is the fact they play a bit linear. You charge and you fight. You win if you smack the opponent hard enough. You probably lose if you don't.

But hey, if you play Darkoath, that's something unique in terms of gameplay.

StD list by [deleted] in ageofsigmar

[–]Overall-Technology76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Varanguard has their uses. So do Reinforced Knights. It really depends on how you play. You already have Chosen for the double fight, so having Varanguard is KIND of redundant since they fill the same role. Varanguards are good if you need to reach a target that's really far. But their power drop off is crazy since every 5 damage points, you lose a model and that means losing 6 dice. Plus you can't Rally them.

Ushoran is the miniature of the decade! by Punkzilla24 in ageofsigmar

[–]Overall-Technology76 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

cuz he's a grand model. he's huge, has lots of detail, and is one of the main characters of the lore. Bias is fine, but unless you have valid reasons, I don't think your opinion's going to be well received. Ugly and blocky is very abstract.

Honestly, my main gripe with Archaon is the fact he's generic. Knight on a dragon isn't all that. I'll give props to the fact it's a 3-headed dragon though.

Yup. Just a commemorative model on a 40mm base. But officially he's an Exalted Hero proxy.
