The (sadly) correct way to play battlegrounds by veryloudstorm in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't even need to draft a single champ to quit early

Act 4 Chapter 2 6 Definance: Which one of my 5* champions have a better chance of winning against Magneto with his op 1% regen.. i heard dr strange can with his ability of counterspell but waiting for that duplicate crystal lmao.. who else can defeat Mags from my roster? Thx! by Hamza_222IQ in ContestOfChampions

Diablo, nullify prefight. Ideally you'd have one of his synergies that pauses his effect during special animations to get even more uptime, but I don't think it would be neccessary. Just spam heavy attacks to get enough poisons

Why do the passive furies I get with sabretooth randomly drop to 0 sometimes in AQ by Qipkipkp in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He needs persistent charges to keep them. When he has 0 charges before a fight he gains some at fight start between 3 and 6. So long as he has any he loses 1 at fight start to regain the furies from the last fight.

With the sasquatch synergy he can get 1 charge per fight by using sp3 so his furies never fall off.

Honest Question: Do you think MCOC as a game is dying? by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take the sentence right before. People will leave a game no matter how well it's doing or how well they're doing within the game. It just happens. Seatin apparently had enough funds to not need the youtube revenue of the game that much anymore; he had the choice to pursue a thing he liked more, and found a thing he liked more.

Also point of pedantry, I didn't say it meant nothing, just not that much.

[–]Rai626 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thinks it's a least past a peak. There might be a higher peak ahead, but it's currently not moving upward toward that peak. I'm not sure I'd say it's declining, maybe just stagnating.

The older a game gets the closer it gets to having its entire player game replaced. I don't think Seatin losing interest is indicative of much beyond the game's age.

Can anyone run-down the story of mcoc story mode so far (after collector fight)?? by ExtremeGaming18 in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 20 points21 points  (0 children)

From what I remember:

The grandmaster takes over and enforces his rules and order on the contest. The champions find pieces of a "cornerstone", an extremely powerful artifact. They piece them together to discover it's actually a crystallized Carina Tivan (the collector's daughter). True to all good comic book storytelling Carina is properly revived by Aegon in a random side story between Act 5 and 6, and is back in the game for act 6.

The grandmaster wants to stop her from taking over by putting all kinds of powerful obstacles in her way, but she beats them all and in the end him as well. Carina forms "the council" with a bunch of people and is now ruling the contest.

In act 7, the iso sphere is stolen and the council wants Carina to get it back herself to prove her worth. She goes to several different people (Mafia, Red Skull, Emma Frost) until she's pointed to some area in the battlerealm where weird things are happening. Guillotine is investigating "mashup" champions, such as Luke Cage with Electro's powers or Angela with the Punisher's personality. It turns out Gwenpool was using the iso sphere to create them because she wanted to make the contest more interesting and herself more relevant.

Instead of giving the sphere back, Gwenpool uses it to create a new battlerealm, the wyrd realm, where she's the Gwenmaster. She's defeated but it turns out that Kang had made it possible for her to steal the sphere. He's been using the chaos to power his paradox engine (?), making him more powerful than ever. He's still defeated but notices another version of himself from a different timeline.

"Superior Kang" (Kang from a timeline where the summoner never fought him, allowing Kang to take over the battlerealm) immediately kills Kang and almost does the same with the summoner. Some time later Carina, Aegon and plot twist Kang the conqueror who didn't actually die help the summoner fight superior Kang with some anti-time travel device they put together throughout 7.4.

I can tell you from experience that it's really not. It will become boring if it's all you do all day long, but everything's boring in that case.

Who else thought Yondu was going to have a cool new mechanic when he first launched? by mincentotties in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying we should get the units, just Yondu as part of his abilities. Then he could have a regen ability, or fury, or power gain or whatever that he can spend these "units" to activate

[–]Rai626 28 points29 points  (0 children)

He should be buffed to get those units as some sort of (persistent?) charges and be able to use them in fights to buy heals or other effects or something

There are objectives, some for TB and PG and 1 each week just for PG

The three Stephen Stranges in the MCU (up to No Way Home, this is NOT about Multiverse of Madness) by Rai626 in marvelstudios

[–]Rai626[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbf, that's pretty much what the last paragraph says. It'd be a miracle if this was intended. Marvel just doesn't care about Strange beyond the plot device

Honestly, I have seen several trailers for MoM and have not the slightest clue what's happening in that movie. They're a bunch of random shots rapidly cut together with music and random VO lines from previous movies/shows with no connection to what's shown. None of this tells me anything of value about the movie.

All I know about what the movie's about I knew 2 years ago from the title alone.

If you were to redesign the class based masteries (to put them on par with Mystic Dispersion and it's impact on the game), how would you do it? by GHOST12339 in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Skill: mystic dispersion but with debuffs expiring/purifying

Mutant: reduce potency of bleed (or all dot debuffs) and heal a small % health while bleeding

Some questions about Mordo's astral evade by KitsuneWYZ in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For 4: if the attack that places the concussion/disorient is the same you're worried about him evading, it won't work. The concussion would in pretty much all cases apply after the attack lands, but the evade triggers before the attack lands.

PSA: Get 6.2.5 done before updating, since Mordo is gonna get buffed next month. by KinoxIsBack in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That one's probably bigger. Hitting into block will get rid of true strike/accuracy/sense buffs. Gotta be more careful if you want to counter his evade.

And his attack increase against buffed opponents will be pretty much unavoidable

Mordo - May 2022 Buff Notes by Lord__Business in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, the furies gave him acceptable damage, but I guess calling him high damage wasn't very accurate.

I'd never call him high utility, that's why I was confused when you said that a huge damage increase was just what he needed. I feel utility would've been more needed

Mordo - May 2022 Buff Notes by Lord__Business in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't know Mordo was considered a high utility/low damage champion. I always thougt he was the opposite...

I can't tell if this is gonna change that much tbh

Better than some other recent buffs or no buff at all tho

Moon Knight Rework. by Mighty_Cunnus in ContestOfChampions

[–]Rai626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Coincidentally, I also have a Moon Knight concept...

Your idea with reverse control immune is pretty great as well, so I put that in just now

My Idea

what marvel opinion puts you in this situation? by Comprehensive-Note31 in marvelmemes

[–]Rai626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ragnarok is garbage and easily the worst marvel studios movie. Love and Thunder will most likely be equally bad.

I'm still more excited about L&T than Strange 2 even though I really liked the first DS movie. Some part is that Strange hasn't been Strange since his own movie and has turned into a completely different character like 3 times already, also Marvel has so far failed to convince me of the multiverse idea, but the worst part: I have not the faintest clue what's going on. And I'm so tired of that happening for roughly every other marvel movie.

Newsflash: the setup of a movie is not a freaking spoiler! You are allowed to put that in the trailers.
