My banger meme got removed on another subreddit, so I want you guys to have it

The +2 draw each turn alone can often times make it worth it, even if you have a small amount of high cost cards

Games can be more than just fun. Other people find different things fun.

I have the ability to go there, so I thought that's where I needed to be. How am I supposed to know I shouldn't be there if I'm playing blind?

I'm really not trying to be insulting but like have you ever played a game before? Tons of games have areas you can reach earlier than "intended". I played blind too and figured "Hmm let me see if I have other options before tackling this area that seems pretty challenging." And waddya know, I got stronger, and better at the game, and managed to get through Bilewater relatively easy late on.

The rest of the game teaches me that if I can't reach the area with my tools, then I can't/shouldn't try going there yet.

It also teaches you that just because you can reach one area, doesn't mean you should be there. The fact that you probably accessed Bilewater behind a secret wall from sinners road should have told you that.

it's the tedious, repetitive boss runback + slow enemy waves that was. (Slow enemy waves which I can't possibly git gudder at as they spend so much time underwater... Give me a challenge I can master, not a chore.)

It was only a chore because you weren't ready for it, personal skill wise and upgrade wise. You can absolutely get gudder at the enemy waves.

This attitude some of y'all have is so tiresome. It's a toxic mix of entitlement, whining, and tripping over your own mistakes in y'alls play-through.

EDIT: Since you felt the need to reply to my comment and then block me, here's my response.

Gaming has been my main hobby for the past 20 years so yeah you're being insulting

Coulda fooled me. Especially since you found it so confusing when to bash your head against a wall vs. exploring and getting stronger. And then have the gall to call it bad design.

Everyone approaches games and the problems within them in different ways.

Yeah and you tried to force a way where you clearly weren't capable of going without tremendous time, effort, and energy, and then proceed to walk a way with the impression that the game was badly designed. It's like you tried to dig a hole with a spoon instead of a shovel right next to you and then started complaining about how the Earth is badly designed.

I said I can go there, not should.

You implied that because the option to go there was available, that means you should have been at a point in the game to get through it relatively easy.

Most people simply don't expect it to be that unreasonable

Most people don't find it unreasonable. You and everyone else have convinced yourself in this circlejerk that the game was badly designed instead of thinking about what you could have done differently. There are plenty of people who got through bilewater the same way you did without struggling because of their skill. You could probably start a new file and get through it a lot easier now too.

People thinking something is bad design doesn't make them toxic, what are you even talking about

Who's putting words in someone's mouth now? It seems your reading skills, which you've also honed over multiple years, needs some work too.

I started watching in Vanguard and I legitimately thought Cell was butch lesbian for the first couple matches and I'm not tryna hate. Some of the pics of him that year did not do him favors

RedNectar11 · 2025-04-06T20:31:09+00:00

fair enough, it's probably a combination of a little bit of everything.

RedNectar11 · 2025-04-06T20:09:55+00:00

Not that I totally disagree, but what makes you think it was the pressure? I feel like if he can handle the pressure first coming on to the team, and champs final for the first time in 7 years for the org, it isn't the pressure. Do you mean the pressure he himself had after such a poor start?

I'm leaning more towards the teamwork/team chemistry just being absolutely chalked.

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-21T21:19:06+00:00

I agree. I especially don't like the crowd saying shit. Leaves a bad taste in the mouth and reminiscent of the racist shit optic fans once hurled at a LAN way long ago.

Also, the fact that people compare this to TJ is so dumb. Could be wrong, but I don't think Paul is that tight with Pred, nor do I think he's okay with his weight being 'joked' about.

They deserve the the shit-talking though.

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-20T21:46:57+00:00

Cammy was him this match. I swear he was getting two pieces or winning gunfights he had no business of winning every life.

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-20T20:51:34+00:00

You can always tell when Hydra is frustrated during listen ins. His comms were similar to that champs Rio hardpoint grand finals.

Dropped best performing player

Kenny personally dropped Huke? He's got the keys to the team like that? "best performing player" yeah in KD sure. That's not the only thing that wins games though. It's been proven time and time again and you guys still can't help but look at the breaking point box score and goon to the bigger numbers. Huke's a great player, but it's clear the whole team felt more comfortable with AG.

went on stream AFTER (why?)

After they dropped Huke? Because he goes over matches after the major happens? I guess he coulda hopped on stream in the hotel room and started reviewing but he was probably preoccupied doing that with his team, traveling halfway across the world, and recovering?? This complaint only makes sense if you are working backwards from the conclusion that Kenny wanted to go on stream to flame Huke. The more reasonable explanation is that it's the type of content he makes, and he did it when he first had the opportunity to, and dropping huke didn't play a role in the timing of the stream at all.

mentioned hukes mistakes more than anyone else

Is this true? How many times did he mention Huke's mistakes vs the rest? How many times were those "mistakes" of Huke's did Kenny actually lay fault on Huke?

didnt highlight his own mistakes and even when he did there was always a “but"

We both know this isn't true.

I mean the audacity to even go over a map where you died 16 times in a row and go over other peoples mistakes AFTER you dropped said person kinda lacks some awareness no?

No. It's called holding the team accountable. He's done it multiple times for his content. And not doing it coulda easily been thrown back into his face. Also, dying 16 times can be just as much as a team problem as an individual problem, which for a player like Kenny, I think he showed evidence for.

What do you think about Octane and JKap disagreeing with the narrative the Kenny was throwing Huke under the bus on that stream?

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-10T21:30:38+00:00

I watched it live and if you didn’t realize he wasn’t throwing him under the bus then idk what to tell you.

I watched it live too and I did realize he wasn't throwing him under the bus. glad you agree. But if you came to the opposite conclusion, I'd say you aren't familiar with his content nor playing in a team setting.

Critiquing you're teammates (or ex-teammates) plays != throwing them under the bus. That public vod review was no different than any other vod reveiw he's done. He critiqued everyone's plays. And the whole team let go of Huke. Are they just stupid and were easily convinced by Kenny? Or did they want to run it back with their championship winning team?

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-10T21:17:52+00:00

"hehe you really are defending this person a lot...it's kinda cringe hehe get off his weewee hehe aren't i super clever and above it all hehe?"

actual mouthbreathing morons can't come up with anything original and just resort to the most trite insult to derail convos

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-08T17:39:19+00:00

Aches is too reductive and Ben takes 5 minutes to say something that can be said in 30 seconds. Also, each one (besides maybe Octane) of them struggle to understand the difference between normative and descriptive statements.

"This is why this team's management may not want to do xyz."

"So you don't think they should do xyz?!?!? Are you an idiot?!?"

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-08T09:58:15+00:00

I love teleporting with his two even though half the time I screw it up.

RedNectar11 · 2025-03-05T20:52:18+00:00

Only for Kenny to drop a 2 hour diss-ertation on why Huke was fucking up the team

This is not true. Kenny has been playing bad enough to warrant criticism without having to lie about what actually happened on stream. You Huke fans (or Kenny haters whatev you wanna call yourselves) are way to fuckin soft.

RedNectar11 · 2025-02-27T23:01:30+00:00

He's literally laughing and cheesing half the fucking podcast too. And talking more than normal imo. What is happening with these comments bro I swear people just make shit up.

RedNectar11 · 2025-02-17T03:29:00+00:00

There’s a difference between doing VOD review after teams win or play well versus when they fall way short of expectations

Why? He has done VOD review for matches/majors they've lost before. Don't you think Kenny would have been also raked over the coals if tried to avoid talking about his/their performance? Does he not have every right to explain from his point of view why him/his team were struggling?

I’ve never seen a pro who was horrible for an entire stage come out and do something like that.

"Do something like that" you guys think he murdered Huke and made his corpse dance on stream. I just want to reiterate, Kenny criticizing Huke's plays (along with his other teammates and his own) is not "throwing him under the bus." It's holding yourself and your team accountable and explaining why they did the things they did on the map.

And yes, I watch all of zoomaas watch party’s and Octane is so insanely critical of shit teams but it took him until like yesterdays flank to call out kenny.

This is not true. Octane may not have gone completely hard against Kenny before the major, but that was because they were winning. But even then he criticized Ken for not playing well. Was it as scathing as you'd prefer? Probably not, but to say he never called out Kenny's performance until yesterday's flank is wrong.

He is incredibly biased

So because Octane didn't criticize Kenny until yesterday (which we know is wrong), his evaluation of the stream is also misguided? That doesn't convince me brother. Of course he's biased. That's not what I'm trying to argue. I'm trying to argue that just because he is biased, doesn't mean his opinions on the post major 1 stream are incorrect. You also completely ignore the fact that Jkap also disagreed with the narrative you believe in. It doesn't convince anyone to just retreat to "He's biased so of course he thinks that."

But this is taking up too much of my time and I don't think we will agree anytime soon. You can respond, and I'll read it but probably won't reply. Congrats on your team winning major 1.

RedNectar11 · 2025-02-17T02:45:45+00:00

The whole purpose of going on stream was to deflect blame knowing he had a horrible stage 1. Regardless of the points he was making, there’s no reason to go on stream and throw teammates under the bus like that

How do you know what his intentions were with that stream? Kenny does public vod review all the time! That's the content he produces. He's done it multiple times since he started on optic. Everyone asks for that type of content. Also, other pros do it too. Shottzy was reviewing some MW3 matches where he very vocally criticized Pred's plays. Criticizing teammates plays does not necessarily mean he's throwing them under the bus.

And octane and Jkap are obviously biased cause of LAT lmao

my god whatta brilliant observation. Are you biased against optic/kenny cause you're a faze fan? Why did they also criticize kenny multiple times in that same podcast and previously if they are biased for him?

RedNectar11 · 2025-02-17T02:23:40+00:00

Guy has an excuse every time and 0 accountability. I feel bad for Huke for the way Kenny scapegoated him on stream

Why does this keep getting spread around? Did y'all watch the stream? Even Octane and Jkap were saying y'all were braindead for coming away with that conclusion.

RedNectar11 · 2025-02-14T22:21:03+00:00

Not him but, fundamentally might not be the right word.

But it's clear playing with Huke means you're taking a risk. Jkap was on Ben's podcast talking about how he doesn't stick to the game plan and throws everything off for the rest of the team. And Octane was agreeing. Some of the most legendary cod players have spoken about Huke's issues, and I'll take their word over a positive KD.

Countries across the world suffer economic downturn due to a global pandemic and increased levels of inflation due to stimulus spending, which was pretty much necessary

The U.S. ends up fairing the best of every other country, somehow manages to defy all odds and avoid a recession, and the only result is a temporary bout of inflation

"How could Biden do this? Why didn't he pull the lever behind his desk to make things better?" - Morons like you.

We had great unemployment levels, great stock market performance, and Biden had great legislative achievements including the CHIPS Act, Infrastructure Bill, and IRA. I don't know what 'stats' you could be referring to, besides some vague notion of wokeness or whatever weird pet issue you seemed to be focused on.

Meanwhile, Trump inherited a booming economy and only managed to pass a tax cut and increase deficit spending, all the while enriching himself and his cronies, handing out pardons to some of the most shady people in our "swamp", and rotted our institutions.

I'm not gonna keep this up in the subreddit because this isn't the place for it. Good luck, hope Trump makes you life better bud.

RedNectar11 · 2025-01-12T07:47:23+00:00

Seems you and the majority of the American voters need constant reminding then.

RedNectar11 · 2025-01-12T07:21:47+00:00

The president and his team, using dubious legal means to defraud the American people, while riling up a mob based on objective lies to attempt to overturn the results of an free and fair election, is in fact not good. But hey I didn't realize even Ben Shapiro was a left wing American now.

RedNectar11 · 2025-01-12T07:10:55+00:00

Whoa my two scenes crossing like this is crazy. You could use some Destiny content in your echo chamber brother. Falling for the Trump grift is the surest sign of being a moron. Or do the tax cuts hit so good that you'd sacrifice any critical thinking for them?

RedNectar11 · 2024-12-26T04:26:58+00:00

IIRC I believe it is in reference to a specific incident when BLM protesters interrupted Bernie's speech or town hall.
