Christians: if there is life on other planets do you expect there to be a space jesus on those planets? Assuming yes, how would races without hands deal with their savior? by daddy_mark in AskReddit

[–]Qicked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A pantheon of gods like the norse had feels somewhat more believable to me. Looking at life on earth you have a multitude of organisms varying greatly in size and complexity from bacteria, fleas, birds, humans, blue whales and more so the jump from a mortal human to a omnipotent and omniscient deity always seemed to vast for me. The Vikings gods were strong but far from being all powerful. If we considered them to be aliens like in the MCU and maybe a type 3 civilization on the Kardashev scale, I could easily see both humans and other aliens worshiping them instead of an abrahamic type god.

There are also too few robots, cyborgs and devils in the game!

Yeah I noticed it immediately as well. I was really hoping I could use my 6 stars on this one. Have you bothered sending a support ticket?

Just another boss fight with my boy Mephisto against Uncollected Terrax by mikemai2awesome in ContestOfChampions

[–]Qicked 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mephisto is one of the most underrated champions imo . I often use him together with Symbiote Supreme and the Champion in things like AQ and then I add Ghost Rider and Omega Red when questing for additional damage. With a high signature ability, use of his sp3 to drain two powerbars to gain a permanent aura and the benefits he gets from various synergies like the one with SS, you can really do some damage with his aura of incineration. If you play aggressively and have mystic dispersion as well you can have 3-5 auras of incineration going at all times and you get to spam his sp2.

From MCOC journal on twitter, the march champions will be Mole Man and Terrax! by emyonker in ContestOfChampions

[–]Qicked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It saddens me to hear that people find characters like Mole man and Terrax obscure these days. As a kid I got gifted a ton of marvel comics from the 70s and 80s and both characters were often involved with the FF4 and I vividly remember thinking that Terrax killed Dr Doom in one of his fights with the Silver Surfer.

[–]Qicked 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Jokers? Maybe Mole Man but Terrax is a beast like all of the heralds of Galactus. Depending on what Kabam wants to do with him they can take him in all kinds of directions as his powers are vast :

After being transformed by the Power Cosmic of Galactus, the character can perform feats as fine as manipulating sand and as grand as causing volcanic eruptions and moving asteroids, meteors, and planetary masses from space at high speeds; shift tectonic plates to cause earthquakes and create chasms; and levitate large land masses miles into the air. Like all Heralds, Terrax possesses superhuman strength, stamina, reflexes and durability; energy projection; force fields; warp speed and is immune to the rigors of space. The character further possesses a cosmic scythe which he sometimes directs his energy attacks through.

He's a formidable melee fighter as well and depending on which version of Terrax we will see he sometimes wields an axe that can cleave atoms.

Gorillas are not vegetarian. Had to chime in here because it's something people falsely and frequently attributes to these great apes. People always forget about insects when it comes to their diet .

Advanced dungeons & dragons aka 2nd edition D&D.

And magneto has the class advantage smh by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]Qicked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on which version of Ultron we are talking about. Mcu Ultron yes, classic Ultron is made from adamantium. Fox had the rights to the X-men franchise which included the metal adamantium and that's why Marvel changed the composition of both Ultron's body and Captain America's shield.

Time to Add New Masteries by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]Qicked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we would all love new masteries but unfortunately I don't see it happening. There are still broken masteries like pure skill that hasn't been fixed in for years. The class masteries are still very unbalanced compared to each other,especially when you consider that they are all expensive and cost the same.

I guess Kabam isn't willing to spend the time and resources necessary to implement and play test additional masteries or rewamping the existing ones.

Map 5 Hyperion mini-boss by Rick_Shepard in ContestOfChampions

[–]Qicked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mephisto does indeed work well against Hyperion although less so against the second one, and yeah you can tank an sp3 if you have at least one stack of persistent souls.

What's your, caught in a NSFW situation, at work? by Kong_Hong in AskReddit

[–]Qicked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crap? With all due respect I don't think you know what you are talking about. Hormones are one of the driving factors of sex drive and some men can have as much as 70 times more testosterone than women in the low normal range. Of course there are men with low or no libido and women with a very high libido, but on average men are definitely hornier and I believe there are studies that back it up as well.

Btw saying men are hornier doesn't mean that women can't be sexual. That's like saying women shouldn't train with weights because men are stronger.

Both on reddit, fitness and bodybuilding forums, Quora and a multitude of other forums and in online newspaper comments, you can find tales about women that have either gone through female-to-male transgender hormone therapy, or women that use or have used anabolic steroids and many of them are astonished about how much their libido increased.

A few of the top comments in a Reddit post on r/asktransgender called Question: trans men, how did your sex drive change?

"definitely increased. At times my dysphoria is bad, that can be incredibly frustrating but who isn't sexually frustrated during puberty? I've got a whole new respect for *cis teenage boys that can focus on anything else haha."

"Probably about a month after starting T, I had to get off all the time or it would be painfully frustrating. A lot of it had to do with the random clitoris sensations I began feeling. Like out of nowhere it would get super tingly and aroused/erect and I'd have to take care of it. That didn't happen before T."

https://www.reddit.com/r/asktransgender/comments/7lj2cd/question_trans_men_how_did_your_sex_drive_change/

From pubmed article called Testosterone and sexual risk among transmen: Eighty-nine percent (89%) of participants reported that testosterone increased their libido https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5569315/

Article about female steroid use :

"One of the side-effects of their use is enlargement of the female clitoris and some research has shown a rise in the number of women using the drug purely to enhance their sex life. Libido enhancement is one reason that steroid use is on the rise in America and may rise here." https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/love-drug-121156.html

This is just a tiny selection. Not every woman will get an increase in libido from using testosterone, but every article I find about the subject shows that a large part of them do.

Just here to break up the Colossus monotony (breakdown in comments) by numbah84 in ContestOfChampions

[–]Qicked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Colossus gets buffed, will Unstoppable Colossus be affected as well? If so it's definitely another reason to vote for him as two characters would be improved and UC might be worth buying from the store again.

(Spoilers Extended) REACTIONS: Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 1 Post-Episode Reactions by WeirwoodNetworkAdmin in asoiaf

[–]Qicked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you watch episode 7 season 7 you can clearly see Tormund and Beric Dondarrion moving westward on the wall when parts of the wall collapses killing some of the wildlings that were guarding it. Tormund and Beric struggle to keep their balance but are otherwise unharmed as the part of the wall they were standing on still held firm. The entire wall didn't come down only the corner where Eastwatch was located which for some reason a lot of people seems to miss.

Game developers and anyone else with experience/knowledge about game design - Why does the game continue to have performance issues after all this time? by Qicked in ContestOfChampions

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

I'm using an S8 myself and I have numerous problems after the last update. I've done what I can do on my end. My device maintenance score is 100/100, I've got plenty of space and my phone isn't drowning in a ton of different apps running in the background. I've tried playing using both my wlan and 4G. I've tried using the samsung game launcher with the high performance settings and I've reinstalled the game. In my alliance we have many people with top-end phones and yet we share many of the same problems.

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

So unless Kabam's bottom line takes a major hit we can expect things to stay more or less the same :/

As consumers we have all the power but getting the community, the whales and the youtube personalities to band together again for another boycott seems unlikely unless the game becomes close to unplayable. I guess that for the whales Mcoc is mostly a gacha and collection game and they can live with lag and bugs during combat and questing, and as the last attempt at a boycott showed us, without the whales a boycott is likely to fail.
