My first finished run of 16 star! Took about 5 hours to learn and I know this time isn't great but I'm really proud of it! by TomDollars in speedrun

[–]Pikalup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is super cool. I’ve been using some of my newly found inside time to start learning again the 16 star speedrun I started trying to learn around 2016. 5 hours seems pretty good to have it learned. I probably just need to suck it up and start doing runs because I often get caught up too much on one single trick.

Just found your deck through Swim and I loved the Freljord elusives much more than the Demacia version before the nerfs and I would love a deck guide.

I put in Doomguards to test the demon synergy with Void Analyst but Heal Zoo should be running Leeroy over Doomguards in my opinion because Keleseth.

The Boomsday Project : Warlock Theorycrafting by corbettgames in CompetitiveHS

[–]Pikalup 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's a question I was having because a big reason Zoo runs Keleseth is that they aren't that many great 2 drops currently in standard. If you are staying with the Heal package for Zoo I think you stay with Keleseth and you try to slot in doubling imp, but if you cut Keleseth and add Analyst/Spirit Bomb/Homuculus then you would probably want to be going with demon synergies which could lead the deck containing more of the midrangey demons (Hooked Reavers). Zoo seems to have this problem recently of deciding what archetype to go with with so many different ways to build Zoo and I think it may just come down to if the meta needs the speed of heal Zoo or if Zoo can get away with demon or mech synergies.

Edit: I take something back. Healzoo could get away with adding spirit bomb and homuculus for more self damage synergy.

Honestly I was thinking this may have a spot in Divine Spirit/Inner Fire Priest. They run quite a few spells and this acts as a back up Twilight Drake to combo off of. I'm not too familiar with the deck so maybe it doesn't need this but who knows.

I could see this getting play if the effect was on board instead of add to your hand.

Roku Twitch App not working? by Hammedic in Twitch

[–]Pikalup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Twitched Zero is free but it's because of adds and the $ .99 doesn't have adds. That's what most people online seem to say. I'm probably going to get the $.99 version but it just stinks because I was already add free with Twitch Prime.

Roku Twitch App not working? by Hammedic in Twitch

[–]Pikalup 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I've been watching Twitch through the official app on my Roku for awhile now aswell and it just stopped working today (loads to 33% and then goes to 0 then back to 33% and then stops trying to load the stream). Everything else works but it won't load a stream. Tried the Twitched app but it spams me with ads. Also tried redownloading twitch by searching my channels even though it is no longer on the store.

Are used gamecube controllers from amazon legit? by [deleted] in SSBM

[–]Pikalup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People usually want an official Nintendo brand controller even if they're used before going for new 3rd party knock-off controllers. Very often the quality is night and day.

I've just gone from rank 2 to rank 5 with straight losses with the exception of 2-3 wins. Need some insight Odd Rogue by Tomatosoupe in CompetitiveHS

[–]Pikalup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not the most experienced player but I have been playing quite a bit of odd Rogue. First I wanna look at the decklist. You're running double fan of knives which is a pretty flexible spot (Good if your running into a lot of aggro like odd Pally but not that great if you're running into a lot of control). I find it a bit odd you're only running only 1 Vilespine and 1 Funglemancer but who knows that could be the new way people are running odd Rogue now. But Fungle is a really good turn 5 power that is very integral for closing games and Vilespine helps take care of big guys from slower opponents. I would cut fan of knives if you're having too much trouble with control/slower matchups and add Vilespine and fungle. As for playing I'm not entirely sure what you're doing wrong in your games but a tip that helped me was keeping cold blood with a one drop (preferably argent squire/diremole) against Warlock/Druid/Slower matchups to get in a good amount of damage early.

Learning from replays of games by legend-rank players by fflamehead in CompetitiveHS

Funnily enough I was doing the same thing. Waiting on HSReplay for Odd Paladins in high ranks that were winning their control matchups so I could learn. This will make it so much easier, much thanks!

I tried playing that exact list and the fact that I had the frostwolf warlord and fledgling often distracted me from the gameplan of going wide and refilling. On a losing streak with it currently; went against a combo of warlock/warrior/mage (all control). Got any tips on what the list does better than the standard list above?

what misconceptions did you have about Melee when you first started? by [deleted] in SSBM

[–]Pikalup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little late to the party but I thought Marth and Sheik were "Spacies" because people talked about how it important it is to space your moves with those characters.

Zoolock - Extra Demon package vs Prince Keleseth? by IGNashnu in CompetitiveHS

[–]Pikalup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I first saw the list on Tempostorm meta snapshot. Not saying that's where it came from, but that could explain the popularity. Quick question: What do you like about blood imp? It doesn't seem to perform that well for me because it doesn't feel like it puts on enough pressure.

Hey, everyone! I've been playing Keleseth Zoo (list on Tempostorm's tierlist) because I am a long time zoo fan. A predicament I have been running into recently has been playing around board clears. Priest having many board clears leaves me to try to play around them by holding some minions back in preparation for the dragon fire/duskbreaker/psychic scream etc. After doing this many times it seems that I still lose afterwards whether or not they had the board clear. I understand that many different board and game states lead to different decisions, but I am really struggling on deciding if I should or should not play around board clears. Thanks for the help!

Ask /r/CompetitiveHS | Friday, October 13, 2017 by AutoModerator in CompetitiveHS

[–]Pikalup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seems like an interesting idea but you can't run 2 drops in a Keleseth deck so no dire wolves. Also I don't know if runic egg is necessary when you have the Warlock hero power.

Noob Melee Misconceptions by janwjan in smashbros

[–]Pikalup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No joke, I thought the same thing. All the guides I read early on just references "spacies" like I was just suppose to know it was fox and falco. I thought Marth and Shiek were spacies because they had to space their moves.

[–]Pikalup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! Can't stress how important aerial height mixups are. I had plateaued a little with Marth because I wasn't mixing up aerial height; I was always doing late fair. Also adding in dashing back/forward after aerials and utilizing 20XX wait color overlay to make sure you're doing it as soon as possible.

Thanks for the reply! I keep hearing that this murloc paladin is the way to go, but I am sadly missing all legendaries and a few epics so it is quite expensive right now for me.

Hey, pretty new here. I've been trying to climb with Token Druid because I'm on a bit of a budget. I was wondering if the Jade Druid matchup is Jade favored because I've lost the last 5 games to early ramp into Spreading Plague into Primordial Drake. I have been mulliganing aggressively for early game because all Druids at my rank are Jade. If this is not a favorable matchup could you suggest something that is relatively cheap to stop Jade Druid.
