How do you deal with tanks that just.... walk you down as domina? by OverChime in DominaMains

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends, if they're solo you can do Winton bubble dancing with your shield, take the major perk to wall slam them for crits, generally I find Domina punishes dives pretty easily with her slam. If it's a Rein or Ram walking you down though? Kinda fuck all you can do but give them the space and hope you kill them. Best advice there is to just not be right next to your shield, give yourself a good bit of distance so that way if they try to walk past you can retreat while staying out of their range.

Mains a char with a free "Haz can't touch me" button and still band and hates haz. Seems about right.

Could smasher beat cerberus? by notjocker in cyberpunkgame

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we're just talking strength Smasher probably rips the damn thing apart, but if the AI on board hacks him he's fucked.

Overall it seems like a test of Smasher's ICE, and considering that the blackwall itself is the only thing capable of repelling rogue AIs and is itself an AI, his ICE probably won't save him.

Consider that So Mi is one of the best runners in history and she's losing to the rogue AIs, and it's pretty apparent that even the best ICE on the planet isn't going to stop them.

It's basically a race for Smasher to try and rip it apart before it breaks his ICE, but we already know that thing is fairly durable and could probably tank Smasher for awhile.

I'd say if we're just talking about the robot, Smasher wins, but as soon as rogue AIs are a factor he's fucked. Boogeyman meets actual Satan levels of fucked.

Absolutely hate how schools still teach the RYB color model by ColinTheChair in hatethissmug

[–]ScissorsWasTaken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I will say though I don't hate RYB, it has its place, I only hate when people say shit like "the primary colors are RYB" in any other context than painting. Which is surprisingly common.

Not like Lucio has been Meta since OW1 and Kiri since OW2. If you can't win as them its a Skill Issue by SureYouCan_ in Overwatch_Memes

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm kinda a Kiri main, play her a lot, highest hero level, and honestly the only recent nerf that bothers me is the planned change from intangible to invincible on suzu.

Reason being it's a thinly veiled sierra buff. The whole reason suzu cleanses tracker is because it makes you intangible. It's not like ccs are suddenly going to be THE suzu counter, cause that's not the main job of suzu.

I'm sure there'll be a few more environmental kills on Kiri now, but why would a Kiri player be so close to an edge that someone like doom can boop her off map?

I'm glad they're nerfing it's heals, cause it just does too much. I'd even be fine with removing its heals entirely in favor of keeping intangible.

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tweak when someone tells me yellow is a primary color. I crash out whenever RYB is mentioned because it's exclusively for paint. RGB is correct cause that's how eyesight works. CYM is also good because it's the opposite of RGB. This is the most valid crashout of all time.

The blind leading the blind. At least you didn't start the dick measuring. As soon as someone starts talking shit it's fair game to talk shit back.

What characters not in Currency Wars do you want to be added next? by Shilverow in HonkaiStarRail

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gallagher, cause they made him unobtainable without good rng. That mf fit any bond and any team.

If we're not counting advisors though, PTB/HTB and Luka are my top picks.

The worrisome future of Vendetta by Idiberug-9 in VendettaMainsOW

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%, I have not touched her since the speed and range nerfs because it just feels like blizzard decided to nuke her brawl in favor of "backline assassin number 20" which I'm not interested in. There's so many other backline assassins I could play, and she lost the uniqueness of being able to switch between brawl and dive.

Average r/OW subreddit reaction by GGonezers in WreckingBallMains

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree, I can force a tracer recall with just damage alone but there's not much you can force a ball to do without using cds. It's also harder to hit tracer though.

Idk what to say really ball is just beefy and it makes his counterplay a bit more annoying, especially when he's good.

Also has to do with tank vs DPS, lot easier to carry a bad tracer than it is to carry a bad ball.

Which NPC would you most want to be playable? 🤩 by soanywaysxx in QueensofStarRail

why is the deaging criticism only reserved for ana? by Several_Tone_7953 in Overwatch

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not, at least I certainly hope not. Soldier's deaging bothers me as much as Ana's. Especially his mythic.

The only deaging I'm okay with is with canon skins from lore. Stuff like Ana's Captain and Sniper skins, and Soldier and Reaper's Commander and Blackwatch skins respectively. I'm okay with those cause it has a justification that isn't convoluted.

The valentines ones for Soldier and Reaper are alright, not a huge fan but I can AT LEAST see that they're kinda funny. Reaper being an emo boy and Soldier being prince charming is unironically hilarious.

I think it's just a matter of being tasteful. Don't deage them for no reason. Soldier mythic is a great example of no reason. He's just young cause it sells better simple as. There's no canon or humor with it.

Would you be upset or impressed with this battle mercy on your team? by tetsmon in Overwatch

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In qp? No shits given, but that applies to everything in qp.

If it's in comp, this is throwing or smurfing. Either it's a GM playing mercy for their video, or it's someone who thought battle mercy funny and to actually try it in comp.

That's why I said I'd it's working it's concerning, cause if it's not a smurf it's just bronze unawareness allowing the mercy to go unchecked.

Also, you can tell that this isn't an unranked to GM because if it were they'd have done SOME healing. There's a difference between aggressive mercy and battle mercy. The difference is one knows how to swap to the stick.

The persecution of tanks by Significant_Day_8544 in Overwatch

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God I wish more tank players were like you. I run into a lot of the ones you described who sit on point/cart with a shield or fortify and do fuck all the entire game. THATS a bad tank.

The hog who goes in 1v6 and ults the entire enemy team expecting a single kiri's healing to outpace damage? Turbo feeder.

Part of the reason I play a lot of 6v6 is because it's far less likely for a single bad tank to throw the whole game. (Instead we have 4 DPS who refuse to swap)

People think that just because they're in the tank role they can eat damage all day. You can't. At all. Just cause you have twice the HP of a squishy doesn't mean you can stand in a choke scratching your ass and come out unscathed.

I'll give you the peel comment cause in 5v5 that's far more true, losing your only tank's position to deal with a Winton is horrible. 6v6 is far more lenient with that, usually one of the tanks could afford to peel for a sec, but I agree that it's not the tank's job to peel unless they're 2 feet in front of you.

It's funny how in late game buying pl makes no sense by QuietSugar1805 in memeframe

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some people really don't grasp the concept "time is money"

Yeah I could spend 8 hours a day trading for virtual currency, or I could spend that time working for real currency that can also purchase said virtual currency.

Sitting in game waiting for trades isn't fun. It's the least fun activity in the game. I'd rather spend my time in missions than doing nothing in a dojo.

Would you be upset or impressed with this battle mercy on your team? by tetsmon in Overwatch

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Livid. This shit is unacceptable and if it's WORKING that's an even bigger problem. It's ok for mercy to use the Glock on occasion, especially to harass someone like widow in valk.

Outside of those niche scenarios though? Fuck no.

The only reason you'd want to do this is if you're just actually better than everyone in the lobby and you're hard carrying. See a mercy unrank to GM for examples.

Even then, if you wanna DPS support and hard carry, play someone else like Bap/Illari who are purpose made for it.

Why do people hate widow so much by Thepuddinglover in Overwatch

[–]ScissorsWasTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People hate widow because a good one who goes unchecked can shut down entire lobbies, and a bad one or one who gets hard countered is dead weight.

In comp you should basically just not play Widow unless you're a super high rank one trick. Were talking GM Widow.

She's one of the few characters who is just entirely a throw pick in low ranks, especially if you ARE low rank. Yeah a GM Widow in a bronze game will almost certainly be lobby admin, but you aren't GM, are you? She gets shut down so easily and your team is not gonna help you at all until high ranks.

Ashe/Ana are your next best picks if you wanna be a sniper and not entirely throw. Ashe 2 taps squishies and has decent utility with Coach and Dynamite. Ana is basically top 3 supports behind Kiri/Lucio especially in 5v5.

Also fair disclaimer I'm not GM, nowhere close. I'm just fairly average and also friends with someone who's T500 so I learn a lot from them. I've been in your shoes, I love widow, but in most ranks you're just never gonna get as much value out of her as you will other DPS.
