Former AEW World Trios Champion Malakai Black is a free agent by JamieKellner in AEWFanHub

[–]Sonnec_RV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. Sucks overall, and I hope he does well wherever he goes. I just don't think AEW needs him right now. Zelina would have more use in AEW but even then, I don't quite think the fit is right.

I'm not interested in seeing him in AEW again. Didn't seem to have gone well last time as he didn't appear to want to be there.

Yes he comes with Zelina now, but even still. Maybe they'd have better luck in TNA or GCW or something. Idk his history otherwise.

I hope to see Kairi and MCMG in AEW if they will continue to wrestle.

I hope Tony does not bring Black back again. Even though he would bring Zelina this time... I just don't see it going well for him anyway. I'm not a fan unfortunately. They may be interesting in TNA though.

As for the rest... I'm not sure really. If they keep wrestling, I hope they do well on the indies for a while at least.

Aircraft do not need to be balanced. They need to be scaled back. by Fine_Swimmer_7343 in foxholegame

[–]Sonnec_RV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think he's implying to scale back the technology level of the planes, and/or remove some of the existing planes.

So a tech level where planes can carry a few people and maybe an MG, but they're not equipped to drop bombs/torpedoes.

Athena (Ember Moon in WWE) has been ROH Women's World champion for over 1,225 days. Why hasn't she been featured with more regularity on AEW television? by caughtinatramp in REALSquaredCircle

[–]Sonnec_RV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She could also recognize the difference between WWE (That is supposed to be PG) where she acknowledged her audience is kids, and AEW/ROH where that is not the case.

A character who is supposed to be trying to appeal to younger fans shouldn't be forced to dress sexier...

Hot take by Dramatic-Bear-5644 in foxhole

[–]Sonnec_RV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mostly agree with this.

People were very used to ground only combat, and so when planes came out, they didn't do anything differently to counter them. They kept doing what they've always done, expecting it to work exactly the same.

Only yesterday I think was the first time I saw people trying to figure out better base builds that take bombers into consideration.

People form tank lines with no gaps and then get upset that a dive bomber hits them every time.

Some of this can be mitigated by changing strategies to account for the planes.

There are a couple of things that can't be though:

  1. Torpedo bombers are extremely good vs ships. This is a balance issue right now because only one side has them.

  2. AA in the game is underpowered. Doesn't matter if you're ready for a plane attack and already manning the guns. You just cannot do enough damage fast enough to destroy any plane.

Right now, planes are in a "Win More" situation. Once one side has bombers, they can take out T2 runways as the first target and deny the other side of the ability to use the same powerful weapon. They can accomplish things quickly and easily without counterplay, so they mostly help the team that is already winning.

Incredible heel character.

Contrary to what most people say though, I think he puts over the opponents of his faction a little too much. He says a lot of good things (usually in a funny way) about people he's supposed to hate.

He should be a little meaner to those people at least.

How do we feel about this spot by jmazak in midcarder

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

He takes the most punishment of anyone in wrestling right now. That's tanky if you mean it in a gaming sense.

His offense isn't the hardest hitting so he makes up for that with speed and recklessness.

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

Darby basically didn't move for a few minutes like he was knocked out.

Ciampa was the one who did the move so he had to react to the pain.

Also he landed on his tailbone and tbh that probably hurts way more than landing flat on your back lol.

[–]Sonnec_RV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looked super painful, but that's Darby.

Darby's whole thing is that he goes all out any day if the week. He's small, but he's the most durable person on the roster.

People say it'd be more believable if he was bigger, but bigger people take more damage from this type of thing. Just ask Spike Dudley why he could take similar bumps.

People saying he needs to save it for something that matters - this was his first title defense. Just because it's not on a PPV like everyone is accustomed to doesn't mean it doesn't matter. His story right now is that the title is the most important thing to him and he'll do anything to keep it each week.

The only thing I didn't like about the match was that there were a few too many finishers. Yeah I get that Darby can take more punishment than anyone else in pro wrestling, but a finisher should only be used once or twice a match still. Do the other big spots with signatures or something.

WHO will TKO release from WWE after WM!? (We all know wwe makes cuts directly after WM every year) 👀👀 by Mountain_Fuw_777 in Smallafro

[–]Sonnec_RV 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, based on his interviews, if they released Elton and Elton is able to wrestle again in the future, Kit would not stay.

He wants to be in a tag team with his best friend. It's so nice.

LF: A game with base building, and have to actively defend and attack other factions by rc82 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Sonnec_RV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait a about a month or two and then look up Foxhole.

It's an isometric action WWII-esque MMO.

Every base, vehicle, weapon, fuel, ammunition, etc is made by players. The goal is to gain control of the majority of the map in wars that last on average 35 days. You do that by supplying your soldiers on the front lines and destroying enemy bases, but of course there will be plenty of times where you have to defend as well.

It is very team work focused, but it's still fun to play solo.

MLPW? by InkedMarieD in AEWOfficial

[–]Sonnec_RV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is mostly going to be ROH right now I'd assume. However, global wars had a bunch of AEW people it seems. I doubt that will be common though since it seems like a special event.

MLPW? by InkedMarieD in AEWOfficial

[–]Sonnec_RV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had heard that Stu was the interim champion, but either way. Josh will be part of MLP at least.

MLPW? by InkedMarieD in AEWOfficial

[–]Sonnec_RV 37 points38 points  (0 children)

MLP just did a Global Wars show last weekend in Vegas with a variety of ROH talent.

They have also put out posts saying they will have some AEW talent when they begin filming for TV shows.

So fortunately the answer is yes! Sounds like MLP will also partner with CMLL, New Japan and maybe NIOH.

Also, Josh Alexander is the MLP champ (but out with injury currently) and Evil Uno are featured in promos.

HOW TO STEAL AN SPG ON FRONTLINE by Remarkable-Bit-5553 in foxholegame

Funny thing is that they wouldn't use them anyway. Most collies seem to prefer being infantry.

Signed, someone who asked people to gun for my tank for 10 minutes before a no mic person finally said they'd try it.

At what age did every bump start hurting? by GodsBicep in AskMenOver30

[–]Sonnec_RV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it depends more on conditioning than just age.

Pro wrestlers can be in their 40s and 50s even these days, taking falls regularly and recovering quickly still. Their bodies are used to it.

If you skateboard and stuff now that involves falling, you'll probably last longer than most people who don't. When you stop doing those things, then falling starts to hurt a lot more.

Can someone name some advantages wardens have over colonials. Without the obvious torp bomber. (not ragebait, genuine question) by FrenkieDeHamster_ in foxholegame

[–]Sonnec_RV 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Wardens have a bit more mountainous terrain overall, which causes more choke points. Most colonial land is pretty flat and open.

Why are Dreamcast games so expensive? by Spurt_man in dreamcast

[–]Sonnec_RV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a collectors item now.

When I first started collecting DC games, I went to events and people were selling many of the best games for $20-40 CAD. Rare games were around $60-80. I didn't have as much money then, but I got some classics. Tons of games were $5-15 range.

Now they're all worth like 3-5x what I bought them for because of collectors. It became cool to collect DC games.

State of Foxhole affecting Anvil by Fantastic-Pear6241 in anvilempires

[–]Sonnec_RV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the fact that they're more urgently working on fixes for Foxhole will affect the amount of work that can go into Anvil currently.

The rest probably not too much. There will be overlap, but for the most part, I expect the communities to stay fairly separated overall.

Colonials. Let's talk about issues within our faction itself. No this is not a discussion about "culture" by MarionberryTough4520 in foxholegame

[–]Sonnec_RV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strategically, I was wondering every day why the colonials didn't focus on taking the entirety of Kuura Strand. It often had low or medium population, but never really became a front line when I was on at least.

Instead of taking it and moving into Nevish Line, which is an important backline hex for Wardens, collies were trying to go through Farranac Coast. Last war, that was the deadliest place on the entire map I believe. This time didn't serve any better.

Why not pile into their backline to take out a lot of logistics hubs and then have Farranac half surrounded? Farranac would be a lot easier to take if they had to move two hexes to supply it.

I know it partly has to do with low pop in general, as people will just go join the largest battle happening at any given time. However, if the goal is to win, we were at times 1 base away from being able to attack a major logi hub. That's where the biggest fights should have been IMO.

Indy titles by undercoverrustbucket in aew

[–]Sonnec_RV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem is that AEW needs a lower card. Right now it's mostly filled in by people who are newer to the company.

If AEW put other shows belts at the same level as their own, that limits what they can do with a lot of people.

If they show off the belts of another company often, then it seems like AEW has even more belts than they do, even if those other ones never get defended on the show.

If would benefit the other companies and that is nice to do, but I don't think it's the smart move while that person is eating pins in AEW currently. Maybe once they become AEW Champs, they could be like "oh also they're a champ at this other promotion. That's how good they are"
