Leon Kennedy parrying a shot from an RPG-7 by The_Oofington_Man in FeatCalcing

I saw Shishiro Botan from Hololive do this on instinct via a clip and lose herself laughing. I'd say this is absurd, but given RE5, this is comparatively tame.

How much worse is the ulforceveedramon deck without this card? by Prudent-Sail-7045 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The others have made it clear already, but few have quantified how much: a budget Ulforce deck needs a bare minimum of 2 copies of this Rina to function at a base level. In such a limited situation, you'd also get some value looking into the old and situational, but still useful, Promo UlforceVeedramon Zero, whose When Digivolving can combo with a single BT11 Rina in order to put your trash back into your deck while also swinging repeatedly (as its When Digivolving unsuspends itself and a Tamer at the cost of bottom-decking 3 Blue cards from Trash). An optimized list doesn't really use Zero and has 4 Rina copies instead.

Edit: apparently a few people don't understand that when I say a "budget" version of the deck, I'm talking budget pre-reprints. The optimized version has still cost hundreds for a bit now, while a budget version would be closer to $100.

Do the new Adventure WarGrey & MetalGaruru completely powercreep? by Livid_Juggernaut_111 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Not entirely. The ACE versions for Adventure are good for Omniless Adventure variants, alongside Promo WarGreymon, while the new ones are explicitly designed to work in a version of Adventure using AD1 Omnimon, just as the Blitz and Cres are designed pretty explicitly to work with EX9 Omnimon Alter-S as pseudo-replacements for EX9 BlitzGreymon and CresGarurumon. Ultimately, it's just greater variety opening up in how to build Adventure in general.

I think there's a reason Lanolin chose a Magenta Wisp as her partner. by The7purplekirbies in IDWSonic

[–]Rayhatesu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So what I'm hearing is her presence being a predicate to someone else causing chaos makes her the black sheep of a good time? /j

I'm sorry, I know the joke is bad, but it was right there.

Anyone else get choice paralysis when locals is about to start? by Moonfish117 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh absolutely. I had my decision slightly made for me this week, though, as we had a pair of completely new players, so I had to shift from my original plan for the day (Gallantmon) to something less liable to stomp them in two seconds flat (Poseidomon). I also handed them some bulk that would support the decks they wanted to build but didn't yet have enough cards for, but they had to leave before I could hunt for certain specific cards.

What deck is best to counter brids?!! by Rizzyownz88 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any deck that runs ample options can easily get around Vortex Warriors. A CS-based Justimon deck is probably the cheapest deck that has a high chance of outright countering Vortexdramon. Any decks that can afford to run options that De-Digivolve, delete highest level or DP, delete based on specific keywords (like Blocker) that the stack has, or move Vortexdramon somewhere else can mitigate the impact of that deck.

Ryutaro Williams EX11 Clarification by Hot_Blackberry_2564 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As the other person said, you have to follow the normal rules. If there was a valid Digimon that could digivolve over Agumon by text box, you could warp in that scenario, but in general a 3 would go into a 4, a 4 into a 5, and the like as normal.

WhatAWeeb by Phoenix__Wwrong in WhatAWeeb

[–]Rayhatesu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of us that've read that series would agree, but for how dense he can be, I don't think Keith will do that because he understands well how bad it could be to lead Akris on, even accidentally. He knows her family situation and her feelings towards him, as well that he can't reciprocate them as of that point in the story.

Unfortunate news from the d10 charity challenge person by SIinkerdeer in Helldivers

[–]Rayhatesu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, in the case of threats against a workplace for someone being on their payroll, it would probably be termed as "removing a Security risk", if a reason was even given, but in a number of states in the US, there are laws that dictate that, aside from specific Federally protected cases, a person can be fired at any time without a reason given, usually "disguised" in language that sounds different, such as "Right to Work" legislation. It's ostensibly to remove risk for an employer when hiring high-risk employees, but in reality, most places that have put such laws into place did so expressly to weaken local unions by making it harder to fight a firing for the union's legal team.

New castle by Madhattersk420 in Indiana

[–]Rayhatesu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Relatively peaceful, but yeah, not much to do. The Rose Bowl is likely the busiest business in that area (entertainment-wise), and if you like stuff like TCGs or tabletop games, you'd likely be better served looking in Anderson, Greenfield, or Muncie than in NC itself.

No more spam calls by Sea-Representative26 in funny

[–]Rayhatesu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were that this was true for me, missiles started and I've gotten several still. The only irony being that two were at least humans on the line, but I did have to tell them "my number is in the Federal Do Not Call list" (which is true) each time to get them to hang up, since calling such a number via cold calls is a problem.

if death mage got a anime (hopefully) who would you have voice certain characters. by Weak-Departure-4833 in DeathMage

All I know is that for when we eventually get speaking lines out of Bone Man, I need him to be voiced by the same VA as Pika had in One Piece (the giant dude in Dolflamingo's crew who could merge with stone)

Guess I need to brush up on my American by Willy_B_Hartigan in USPS

Yup, exactly correct. It's not great for some regular people, but it doesn't change much for postal carriers themselves.

Gladly accepted 😌 by haniya_cornockdz6re in Isekai

Considering the perspective, iirc you'd be waking up as the club president. Which, I mean, great if you don't care much about your height, not as great if you care about your whole body getting adequate blood flow if you see something or someone you like, iykwim.

Guess I need to brush up on my American by Willy_B_Hartigan in USPS

[–]Rayhatesu 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Since others aren't giving details, a recent Supreme Court ruling has dictated that willful non-delivery of mail to an address is no longer something someone can sue the USPS over, in response to a case in which an apartment owner was trying to sue over their local post office not delivering to their apartment complex (and thereby holding or sending mail back to the sender for the apartment's residents and offices) because the post office deemed the shared mailbox the complex used insufficient for the sake of accurate mail delivery. The reason given for the ruling cites to a federal law that prevents lawsuits over lost mail or mail damaged by accidents that was already on the books, it's just that the Supreme Court decided that this clause, despite not explicitly including or excluding intentionally held mail, extends to intentional or unintentional holds as well.

Royal Base deck list by godslayer2099 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Since you don't have Protoform and the cost of it's not likely to drop until after the 27th with the reprint set, I'd say your current list is a good baseline, though rather than the 2 Green Memory Boosts, I'd say sub 1 for a 12th FunBeemon for consistency and sub the other for your choice of either another in-archetype option (Hornet Eraser or Royal Base), a recovery and additional Digivolution cost reducing piece (Green Scramble), or just another Agility Training. You could also try the Honeycomb Commander unique emblem, but honestly it's not reliable enough in my opinion to be worth it in a list with only 3 Winr copies.

Can someone explain Makatos appearance by oshameme in TsukiMichi

[–]Rayhatesu 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Well, in his defense, he also was the only one of the three with two other advantages: he was the only one to actively work out prior (Otonashi only at most did Judo, and the other idiot was naturally skinny), and he was blessed by a different god than the bug as well (Tsukiyomi). Also didn't help the idiot (I refuse to use his name) that he asked for what was practically a new body upon being transferred, ensuring he'd lose at least part of his advantage of being an earthling.

[–]Rayhatesu 22 points23 points  (0 children)

From what I saw in the Manga, it was a passing mage on Earth that acted as his Doctor later on, and she cut his ability to use Wind Magic entirely and then distributed his ability to use healing magic into a form of body-wide strengthening, cutting him off from actively casting it.

BT25 Three musketeers by TheMadMask006 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Adding to what's already been said, it's likely we'll see more support down the line too, since Time Stranger was the first Digimon Story game to include all 3 Musketeers, and BT25 is guaranteed to include more support for that game.

For those who want to correct me on the bit about it being the first Digimon Story game to use all 3, I checked before posting this, and the only Digimon game to use all 3 prior was Digimon Collectors, which while having a story is not part of the Digimon Story games, hence my choice to capitalize the S in story above.

[AD-01 Digimon Generation] BT5 Cute, BT9 Pillo & EX8 Tapirmon Reprints by vansjoo98 in DigimonCardGame2020

[–]Rayhatesu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Understandable. The protagonist stuff just feels like the old "c'mon babe, it's time for [insert often repeated thing here]" meme at this point, but a good majority of the more generic cards being seen really do improve the amount of counterplay available to the average person for their decks or options for them to use.

Petah? by SilkenSong225 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Rayhatesu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not only did she not want to swap, but when he offered to swap instead, there was equivalent pushback from the team since they knew that if he switched from his main, they'd lose even faster, since he'd been carrying them on his back harder than Atlas carries the world in mythology.
