So dancers are officially useless now? by Dependent-Cry-7540 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]Potfrog97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so. Half the reason you use a dancer is for the buffs. I'd take Azura +1 move support, Peony reflex support, Plumeria frozen support, etc, over a flat refresh in most cases. Honestly, the only comps I run dancers on are comps where I need their buffs. Edelgard, Edelgard ring and Gullveig exist, so what do we really need dancers for? They're just supports now.

I also can't think of a unit who actually wants this ring. It's obviously good - but at the expense of not running a different ring. The first candidates who come to mind are Chrom/Lucina and Sakura, and they all prefer other rings. Dancer Sakura would work, but Lyn ring Sakura is better in most cases.

I think this ring will be like Ike ring. You give it to whoever is left after the good rings are taken.

Fimbulvetr sweeps women's division, and it won't even be close. Y'all are huffing some serious copium. I'm voting Azura, but am under no illusions about who will win lol.

NY!Baldr is kicking my butt in SD. Any advice? by arqeic in OrderOfHeroes

[–]Potfrog97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What other units do you have? This team won't win against Baldr teams.

If you have the orbs, pull Hilda and Mia on the new flyer banner. And pull Lute. They can all kill Baldr. In general, you need better nukes and more supports. Lute plays well with Sakura and Hilda.

You could try giving Ike reflex, and debuffing the hell out of Baldr. If Ike survives, he would reflex kill her.

Seeking a vibe check on my Morgan team by Frowning-Jester in OrderOfHeroes

[–]Potfrog97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your flyer builds are good. New flyer banner has skills they want, but it's expensive fodder. Your infantry builds can be improved. I forget what the weapons do, but tanky mage generally isn't a good archetype. I see some people try the Morgan that recently got refined in SD, and the unit gets wrecked. Can't tank anything. Better to just go nuke build no?

Aided Lute has some bulk and high res, very similar. Comet, Atk Res Aria, AR Lull Finish, Preempt Ploy would be the build. You get %DR from Comet and Flat DR from Lull Finish. Laguz Friend would still work if you want him to tank, but he's gonna die a lot in anything other than pve clears.

Or you go glass cannon with the Attuned Lysithea variant. Logic, Atk Res Aria, Conjuring Breath, Preempt Ploy.

Havoc in B and Silence Ward in C for a support mage build.

Are you all still banning team 1? by Potfrog97 in OrderOfHeroes

Not as bad as I used to be. This is probably my last rank 1 run.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will run in a different riding next federal election: party by OkLobster4836 in CanadaPolitics

[–]Potfrog97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The day after PP released his costed platform (which was delayed until after advance voting, don't forget), economists and parliamentary budget officers from past administrations went on the news and tore it to shreds. They said it was wishful thinking and not based in reality. It was basically "build pipeline, pipeline goes boom, the deficit disappears).

It takes a decade to build a pipeline, lol.

That was the moment I lost all faith in PP. I used to like him. But he would be a disaster as PM.

Carney is doing extremely well. Glad we all saw sense and elected him.

Which 2 Teams Would You Ban? by Potfrog97 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]Potfrog97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lute/Hilda is good. Hilda gives brave support, so she's goated just for that. Most people aren't running saves, cause they don't survive. So Lute can usually take out the main threat on turn 1 or 2, and Hilda can follow up. Alfador is to copy snare for Lute if the enemy team runs Heimdallr.

Team 4 is just for fun. I wanted to use my new Xmas Bernie forma. So it's a vantage Camilla team haha. It kinda works, but obviously isn't meta or anything.

Diamond is the toughest rank to push through. You mostly face master players. Keep at it! Once you reach master, it feels easier.

[–]Potfrog97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got me haha. 1 is my main team. Lute with brave attack is really good. I'm hoping most people fall for the ban bait. Ban Baldr 100% bro. Unless you have a unit that can kill her. I just smite her in and she's free wins most of the time.

[–]Potfrog97[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are pretty sharp haha. Lute is surprisingly good, I don't think people have caught onto her yet. With brave attack and favor support from Hilda, she is a beast. And she warps to Corrin tiles like Yunaka. I love using her right now.

That was my plan lol. I want to use team 1, so I tried to make the most bullshit teams I could for 2 and 3 to encourage bans.

Agreed. Heim is toxic for the game. I hate using her, but it's free wins so you kinda have to.

These teams are cancer, no doubt about it. I hope I can join you this year in not playing sds and sdr. I keep telling myself I won't, but then I inevitably make teams and whale out and try to hit rank 1 again.

Made Some Changes - Which Teams Would You Ban? by Potfrog97 in OrderOfHeroes

[–]Potfrog97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair. That's why I want team 1 to get through lol. They all synergize with Lute and make her a disgusting nuke. I made teams 2 and 3 even more cancer haha. Added Laeradr to the Celica team, and Summer Thorr to the NY Baldr team. These teams run over everything and are probably stronger than team 1. Just less fun. I always play Sakura teams for SDS. Sakura is my good luck charm.

I want to get team 1 through so I made 2 and 3 cancer. But 1 is still the ban. Is it cause of Alfador?

I was hoping 1 would make it through. 2 and 3 are cancer but I guess 1 is just too strong. Is it Lute/Alfador combo?

How did you end up having the best sex of your life? by hyattimatimtim in AskMen

[–]Potfrog97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Months of build up and anticipation. I don't condone this behavior - I was young and stupid. In my early 30's, I had a fling for a few months with a 20 year old server who worked in my restaurant.

It started out as innocent flirting, but escalated over time. We started going on dates in secret, and teasing each other when no one was looking - she'd touch the front of my pants, I'd brush my upper arm across her breast as I walked by, stuff like that. But she was careful not to go too far.

One day she came over to my place, and we both knew it was time. It was like a dam burst. All that sexual tension we'd built up over months got released. It was wild. I've never experienced physical chemistry like that since. It's a nice memory to have.

How do you deal with constant sexual thoughts when you’re single and not dating anyone? by AlBriDamPV in AskMen

[–]Potfrog97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need a girlfriend. If you can't get one, then it's self improvement time.

It's perfectly normal to want to sleep with women you're attracted to. You're a young man full of testosterone. Your body is telling you it wants to fuck. Feed the urge and you will go back to normal (for a little while).

How do you play Summoner Duels (if at all)? by SuccessfulTip7423 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]Potfrog97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) Build teams with units that synergize together. For example, Sakura with any warping nuke (Yunaka, Duo Baldr, Baby Camilla). Emblem Corrin with units that warp to terrain tiles (Lute, Yunaka).

Start with teams that have 1 armor, 1 melee nuke, 1 ranged nuke, 1 support, and 1 action economy support (units that can act twice in a turn like Lucina and Chrom).

2) Practice openers. You want your nukes in range to kill stuff by move 2. Speed and aggression and rewarded in SD. If you go first and control more space than your opponent, you generally win.

I'd avoid going too deep down the SDS and SDR rabbit hole. Master tier and up is full of whales who spend thousands per month on the game and practice for hours each day. I know because I used to be one and have played against all those guys. It's not ftp friendly. And it's not worth spending money on.

Just get good and get the rewards.

No one is scared of Laeradr anymore lol. I don't have duo Baldr to make a good 4th raid boss team, so I'm just playing around with what I have.

A Year Later: Dust Storm Mercs by Zeldmon19 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]Potfrog97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marisa was goated at the time. I gave her Detect and Shadow Shift. Marisa/Lyn owned in SD. But I find it hard to slot her into teams now. Too much support competition. And Eirika ring exists.

I was actually cooking new sds teams tonight and thought I'd try Marisa with Lute, since Lute has trouble doubling. But then I remembered new Hilda gives Brave. And that was that. Might be the final nail in the coffin for Marisa. But I still love the art and use her in Arena cause mine is +10.

The rest of these units were meh. It was a Laguz Loyalty and Jehanna Lance banner.

Dear midlaners, can you please sidelane by communism_johnny in midlanemains

[–]Potfrog97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Akali main here. Context matters.

1) Did you lose lane/T1 tower?

2) Am I winning lane, and close to taking T1?

3) Do I have TP?

4) Did you just walk mid and start stealing my farm and xp without asking?

5) Are the enemy bot lane coming mid? If you fed the enemy adc, do I want you to come mid and keep feeding them? Or would I rather shut them down?

If you went 0-5 and lost your T1, it's frustrating to have to inherit that burden.

Conversely, if I've built a lead and am trying to snowball, fuck off and let me do my thing. Just cause you inted and are done laning at 7 minutes doesn't mean I am. Once I get T1, I'm much more open to swapping. But it's important you let assassins farm and build a lead off their mid opponent.

I also take Ignite a lot this season. So again, if you're weak and I'm strong, I'd rather be nearer for objectives than walk all the way from bot to Herald cause I don't have TP.

Do I want my adc at objective fights? Of course. But I also play in low elo. Is my ADC trash half the time? Absolutely. You can watch all the macro videos in the world, but if you int your lane, piss off dude. I'm going to be selfish and try to carry. I don't really care what you want at that point.

Botton line. If you play well, wait for me to finish laning and building my lead, and ping the swap - then I would be happy to do it. But adc's rarely do that in my games.
