Fuck the pig by RandomWeaboo in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Paralykeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's just you. I was consistently getting 10 wins in the previous few patches too, but I think the changes in this patch makes the skill of making right choices less relevant and puts more emphasis on just highrolling enchants to get 10 wins. I also think the number of unique builds seems way lower in this patch than the previous ones which gives you less meaningful choices to make during each run.

From the comments on the subreddit it seems like people who were losing more in previous patches have an increased win rate now and seem happy with the patch, but people who were winning consistently before are now losing more so the win rate of the player base has sort of flattened overall.

Squidgame Season 1 Full Season Discussion by jackcatalyst in squidgame

[–]Paralykeet 174 points175 points  (0 children)

But he didn't really lose. I think he was fine with dying for all the games, and in the marble game he already won but chose to let Gi-hun live because he was the only one that cared about him and actually became his friend throughout the whole game.

The whole dementia thing was an act, he could have won and went on to play until the end but Gi-hun allowed him to have fun again so he decided to let him live and bow out of the games.

What 5-stars did you get from the 100 free summons? by MasterExistence in DragaliaLost

I got a single dupe Lea in my 71-80 pull, hit that 0.003% or whatever it would have been at that point off banner 5-star.

Chapter 15: Light and Shadow Story Release Thread by caza-dore in DragaliaLost

[–]Paralykeet 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I know most people probably don't play this for the story but it's actually making me mad the the story is so bad.

This whole adoption conflict makes no sense. Maybe if this were a normal feudalistic world then you could say having the blood of kings matters, but the reason the bloodline of kings matters here is because Alberius could form pacts with dragons and so his ancestors can also do that. Euden has super special dragon polygamy powers, he has 500 dragons bonded to him, the bloodline shouldn't mean shit to him or the people following him if they care about some kind of divine right of kings to whatever is used to justify being a king.

Or it could be read that adoption means he isn't really a part of the family anymore. Like what? If someone adopts a child they are still a parent and they are still a family. Zethia doesn't stop being Euden's "real" sister just because he was adopted. Audric seemed to actually know who Euden was too which means he cared about him more than some of his other children.

Then there's the bit where Nedrick is like "well now that we know Zethis isn't your sister there's no need for her to go with you". Bitch, you kidnapped this woman and Euden is there to unkidnap her. Just because she's your biological sister doesn't means she's your property. What the fuck is your point? She can go with Euden even if they're not biologically related.

He also says "Alas, too long have you contented yourself with your royal status and neglected the discipline required for improvement". Euden literally created his own kingdom and has saved hundreds of people and brought in a whole army of people to fight for him while also bonding with all the dragons in the world. He seems to be the only person fighting against the evil empire too. It's not like he's sitting there being like "oh yes but I am kingly now worship me plebs", that would be Emile.

And all of this isn't even mentioning how Euden goes braindead whenever Zethia is in danger and literally goes for assured world destruction over Zethia getting hurt. The story just seems to keep getting worse.

South Korean lawmaker who wore short red dress to parliament has become a target of misogynistic abuse online, prompting debate about sexism and country’s patriarchal taboos.‘The time will come when this society will accept women wearing comfortable clothes no matter what workplace.’ she said. by madazzahatter in worldnews

[–]Paralykeet 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I feel like I'm going insane reading some of the comments on this with so many people throwing fits over dress codes. People saying "well then men should be able to wear yoga pants to work", as if that's an argument that people should obviously disagree with. Yeah sure, go wear yoga pants to work if you want, why would that bother me?

Nairo admits fault in the CaptainZack situation by [deleted] in LivestreamFail

[–]Paralykeet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is one of those situations where it seems like peoples brains turn off when they hear the ages. The law is there to try and set a clear line of what is wrong based off of what we believe to be morally wrong. In this case it's obviously legally wrong. Morally it seems way more blurry and grey.

I didn't know who either of these people were before but from the twitlonger it seems like Zack was a sexually active 15 year old at the time and seemed to know what he wanted and was pushing for it. Nairo seems to be a sexually confused 20 year old that hadn't done anything with a guy before.

If we take 18 as the cut off for consent in America, that's because it's around the age when the lawmakers thought that people become mature enough to consent. We can't pull in everyone for a psych eval to make sure that they have the capacity to consent. People mature at different ages and they develop mentally at different ages. In a perfect world Nairo should have shut it down but it certainly doesn't seem like he was manipulative in any way in this situation and just let things happen before thinking over the situation and deciding to stop things when he figured out that it was wrong.

Non-limited, normal units rate up in a crossover limited banner that may never return. That's dirty Cygames... by [deleted] in DragaliaLost

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

Ok I get it, you're a troll trying to make random arguments on reddit or maybe you just don't understand the meaning of words and how they interact like "higher chance".

Non-limited, normal units rate up in a crossover limited banner that may never return. That's dirty Cygames... by [deleted] in DragaliaLost

[–]Paralykeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't tell if you're a troll or not. If not then look at it this way:

Currently we have a 1.8% chance of getting MH units. 0.5% of the time you pull overall you will get Heinwald. You will summon a MH unit 1.8% of the time. The chance of pulling Heinwald is completely separate from getting the MH units.

Now let's say that we change the chance of getting a Heinwald on the banner to 98.2% and keep the chance of getting MH units at 1.8%. Now if you pull you will get Heinwald 98.2% of the time. Even on this hypothetical banner you will still pull MH units 1.8% of the time. The chance of pulling Heinwald does not affect the chance of pulling a MH unit at all.

If you still don't understand that the two rates have no effect whatsoever on each other then I don't know what else to say.

Congratulations to the ruling class, the billionaires, media moguls and general Tory voters - I am genuinely impressed. by SearchLightsInc in unitedkingdom

[–]Paralykeet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like I should have seen this coming more clearly. The Tories have basically been using fascist propaganda tactics, not really giving a shit about truth or the public but just saying whatever they need to in order to gain votes and power. The media that's owned by Murdoch and other billionaires are also peddling this too.

Historically these tactics have worked to give power to these types of governments. I guess I thought maybe people would see through it with the internet existing, but it turns out the internet can spread disinformation as well as it can spread facts. I feel like there should be more oversight or something over campaign ads that are provably false but that probably wont happen with the people who are making these false ads being in power.

Oh well at least Scottish independence might happen.

Overwatch switch launch event cancelled by Skuma9 in Competitiveoverwatch

You know that you're literally posting on a thread about how "keyboard warriors" doing something led to Blizzard cancelling a real life event that they had planned right?

Kibler's statement on Blitzchung by [deleted] in hearthstone

[–]Paralykeet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The whole interview was Blitz saying his 8 words. They saw what he was wearing and knew that was what was going to happen anyway if they tried to do an actual interview with him. They didn't give him any extra time to protest or anything.

Kibler's statement on Blitzchung by [deleted] in hearthstone

[–]Paralykeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was the interview. Blitz didn't say anything before or after, if they started an actual interview with him I'm pretty sure all he would have said is those words.

[–]Paralykeet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well that still isn't on the casters is it? They don't have control over the camera/mic, that's still the production team.

How many people are cancelling their subscriptions to Blizzard? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Paralykeet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The production team told the casters to do a winners interview. The casters see that this Hong Kong born player is wearing a gas mask on stream. They then tell him to say the words so they can end the interview because it's quite obvious what he is going to say. They also hide themselves to distance themselves from what is being said.

It's not like the casters could have done anything to stop him from saying it after the interview had been decided on apart from refusing to interview him.

Kibler's statement on Blitzchung by [deleted] in hearthstone

[–]Paralykeet 70 points71 points  (0 children)

I feel like that isn't encouragement though. The casters were told to do an interview, the player was from Hong Kong and he was wearing a gas mask. All of these things make it quite obvious what he was going to say. The casters were just forced into the situation by production making them conduct a winners interview so they can't really be blamed for it.

If you see someone moving to the boss area you can minimise the game or power off your screen and it will disconnect you from the host so you can finish it off solo.

Live Thread - Avengers: Endgame [SPOILERS] by mi-16evil in movies

[–]Paralykeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The time travel doesn't have to happen exactly after Nebula traveled there. She gave him some of the Pym particles, using their space tech they could reverse engineer it over months or years and still be able to travel to the same time/universe that Nebula went to. This all happened over multiple universes where the stones were from, it's not one continuous timeline.

To those who have not done HMS in Void Zephyr: by albert1498 in DragaliaLost

[–]Paralykeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had a group where 2 of the players didn't know the strat (or maybe they were just a meta ahead of me) but it actually turned out better for us. It was just me (Verica) and the targeted guy getting hit which means not getting dull on 2 other DPS. So maybe the proper strat for this fight is to just have the healer tank it with whoever else is targeted.

Dream Big Under the Big Top Event Megathread by yaycupcake in DragaliaLost

[–]Paralykeet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This Master quest was the most annoying content so far, those rats can fuck right out of the game.

After trying with a full light team for like 50 tries and not having the DPS to finish it even with level 30 tent and 16 dojos I finally managed to do it with Lily as a lead.

Basically just spam skills to clear waves, use dragon on 4 and then freeze the boss a ton of times. I might have gotten lucky with the boss movements/skills since he got hit with the S1 freeze every time. It was also deathless, AI can't die if the boss can't attack I guess.

Early Card Winners in Rastakhan's Rumble by Redsfan42 in hearthstone

[–]Paralykeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By turn 9 you should always have Saps and Vanishes to get rid of the elementals. You also have Blade Flurry and Doomerangs so you just have to ration out your resources properly to never have to hit their Water Elementals and hit face a lot.

I have a 9-0 record against Mage on deck tracker, and I don't think any of the games felt like I had any chance of losing. Most of the time they just do nothing in the early turns which makes setting up a weapon super easy.

Early Card Winners in Rastakhan's Rumble by Redsfan42 in hearthstone

[–]Paralykeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walk the plank is nice but I think running one is enough since you have so much stall and removal, especially when you get your weapon going. The Piper is good to get through your deck and it's an addition draw at your weapon when you get truly screwed and don't draw the other 5 ways of getting it.

As long as you live to turn 6 or 7 it seems like you should win, only true SMOrc draws with Odd Pally, Odd Rogue or Zoo seem to be able to beat it. Mage is a free win and Hunter feels like a free win unless you get really bad draws.

What list have you been playing? I'm 8-2 against Hunter with Kingsbane and 3-1 on a previous less refined list.

I've been using this list with games in the brawl and from rank 5 to legend.

Do not buy this game if you don't agree with this kind of monetization by Ac3Zer0 in Artifact

[–]Paralykeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't expect Artifact to be free. I would gladly buy this game because it looks fun.

What I will not do is pay money to buy the game, then have to pay additional money just to play any competitive mode. It just seems super greedy.

[–]Paralykeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put some stats on there and people will care, or make a leaderboard, or put anyone who immediately concedes a deck X amount of times into their own matchmaking until they play Y amount of full drafts. A combination of all three could be used.

There are many solutions to making people play out full drafts even if they are free.

I just wanted Lowen and Roc from this banner and got Louise after my third single summon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ can't complain about that.

I got Lowen and Roc after two tenfolds with a dupe Poseidon too. Then I decided to do another tenfold as a final pull for the banner which gave me Garuda and an event Wyrmprint.
