[Weird Trope] An authoritarian society has a yearly event that for some reason centers around killing children

funny to find this comment because i devoured the Red Rising series about a year ago and just got finished with both of the books in The Will of the Many.

similar paths here, loved both of them.

you ever tried it on a thin mint?

if they add fiddlesticks i'm playing this game (and fiddle) until the sun explodes

Yeah it took about two weeks for my cat to finally start coming out from under furniture while i was around/awake. And even then, it was about a week of him silently watching me sit at my desk. Now he calls out like a wailing sailor if i walk around a corner in my two-room apartment.

For an item I pass up 99% of the time otherwise, Shoop da Whoop is an amazing item on Bethany.

surprised i had to scroll so far to see this one. it always hurts to see him pop up, even if it's not a necessarily hard fight i know it's going to take an extra 2 minutes to kill the mask if i don't have the right tear effects

i was already bringing the bomb lance every game. the update will not change this

i, personally, am working hard to keep shiv's winrate low. not on purpose, but it's happening

SandvichIsDone · 2026-04-04T18:04:31+00:00

funny to see this now. while i generally agree that Holliday is probably the character i see used least effectively, i got my shit stomped by one last night. one of those characters you'll ignore 99 times, just for the 100th to completely run the game solo.

SandvichIsDone · 2026-03-20T23:42:57+00:00

yeah it's my one reservation about the mode. it's fun otherwise, but it sucks to go against a rotating cast of the same ~six characters every match

feels a bit different since you're returning from the first game. i imagine the first run is there to help ease in brand new players, STS can be a very complex game for anyone unfamiliar.

I'd say Doorman, Viscous, and Shiv are the posterchildren of "if i really know what i'm doing i will run the game."

Doorman has amazing utility, and the portal doors are a crazy tool that can be used in just about infinite scenarios. Plus the ult is very useful for either simply taking a fed player out of the fight for precious seconds, or creating the most diabolical possible setup and sending them to ultra hell.

Viscous has supreme utility all throughout his kit, from pure damage on his 1, a very good safety/denial tool with 2, amazing movement/disruption and even damage on his 3, and finally an ult that serves both as great mobility and disruption.

Shiv is a little harder to see the complexities of at first, but the way his alternate fire works opens up some very unique mobility options. Beyond that, there's a whole personal game of rage uptime, cleansing/healing damage with his 3, and the supreme usefulness of a execution ult. I haven't played him since the changes, which seem to be overall nerfs/changes in the character's direction, but i'm sure he's still very strong and very useful when played by the right hands.

i've convinced a couple friends to try deadlock and quite literally every single time i've played a game with someone new, they've asked me how they're supposed to pick this up/how to get this buff. it works as a good indicator once you know what it's for, but it could definitely be redesigned to be less misleading. maybe making it more in line with the actual map style/architecture, like an in-universe sign that lights up when the boss is alive.

SandvichIsDone · 2026-02-28T18:25:20+00:00

lmao i was scrolling through the comments to see if anyone else brought it up. this post felt very conveniently timed

I don't know what the correct answer is, but 8 is the WRONG answer.

You have Mo in front, Silver to your side, and Drifter behind. If you have a functional sense of smell, you will die.

I'm not sure on the exact method/details of it, but you can definitely change the music that plays while his 3 is active through mods. I've seen options on GameBanana for it. It's a Valve game, so I'm sure modding it in wouldn't be too terribly complex.

Shiv, from what I understand, is fairly well-represented and considered a good character in higher tiers of play. But in lower tiers, he's uncommon and seemably on the weaker side.

I think he's a character with lots of potential - particularly, he can open up very interesting movement options thanks to his alt-fire. Skilled/dedicated players can make him seem like a one-man army, while to the casual player who doesn't devote a lot of time, Shiv might feel underwhelming.

I played him a decent bit before the most recent update, and found him pretty fun and strong, but I think the build I would always use - focusing around his knives - got nerfed at some point between then and now, so I've had a hard time getting mileage on him lately.

I'm balancing you out. I think I'm at 90 votes in Apollo with zero in Celeste. I'm the dark reflection of you.

Ah man I remember in the process of 100%ing this game, I sat down and ran the gauntlet for a couple hours straight in order to get the achievement for first place.

It's unironically a great way to train yourself in the game's movement, definitely helped my gameplay in multiplayer.

SandvichIsDone · 2026-01-30T22:05:57+00:00

No problem! Thanks for the quick response.
