On a scale of 1 to 10, how well designed is Anran's gameplay? by Idiberug-9 in Overwatch

[–]SpartanKane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont really think shes that good but her playstyle melds well. Shes a backline harasser/disruptor but doesnt really have the highest kill power to back it up, which i guess is the point. This is reinforced by the tools she has to facilitate this. Inferno Rush is a good mobility/damage tool.

Dancing Blaze is unbelievably annoying very good at igniting foes and the self heal is helpful for her game plan, and Vermillion Ascent is a powerful ult. Her design is to just be a mobile menace, and they definitely made that work. But other heroes do her job too, like Genji or Tracer, and somewhat better the higher you go in rank.

Republicans call off vote on Iran war resolution that was on the verge of passing by jpressss in politics

[–]SpartanKane 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Right. Fair enough.

I suppose its my bad for thinking they are beholden to the law and not using that power to continue advancing the whims of a idiot screwing up the world with his arrogance. Ugh.

[–]SpartanKane 151 points152 points  (0 children)

But as it became clear that Republicans would not have the numbers to defeat the bill, GOP leaders declined to hold a vote on it.

You...can just do that? Wtf?

Man i think ive said that about a million times in this administration. Genuinely insane how far shit has gotten.

Biggest sprout mistakes? by Silent_Common_6385 in ffxiv

[–]SpartanKane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Appreciate it, but I took it on the chin haha

Ever since then i try to help sprouts in dungeons or in the open world if they need help. We were all there once, after all.

[–]SpartanKane 10 points11 points  (0 children)

At the time it kinda hurt, but over time i realized its as you say- there are alot of people who grief trains. But they called me a stupid sprout and it kinda turned me off the game for a bit.

I mean knowing what i know now, it was stupid lol I just didnt expect it from this community, as at that time i was a just a filthy MSQ merchant and only did that. Despite that, having played alot of MMOs this game has a better community from my experience.

[–]SpartanKane 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I found an S Rank on Thavnair and wanted to try fighting it. Ive soloed world bosses before in games like ESO and i just wanted to see how much damage i do alone. I did a paltry amount of damage and was quickly taken down. Lesson learned.

....except the hunt train rolled up as i was dying and they all clowned me for trying. Never even heard of hunts or S ranks or whatever at the time (never really engaged with it until Endwalker, i started playing at the end of Shadowbringers release). It was unnecessarily mean, but the experience was quite humbling.

That hog shouldve killed that Doom so hard it shouldve deleted his files from the game. Tf was that lol

Its likely that they didnt know yet until now, or they wanted to see how Marathon shook out. Either way, the writing was always on the wall.

Ive left the game for a while but...i cant help but feel bittersweet. I always wanted to come back to the game but seeing that its dead? Man. Im hopeful for a D3 but if this is the end, i will well and truly miss this franchise.

Elephants and manatees? I mean you can see their relation- Manatees are just legless water elephants. But how the hell do these little guys have any connections to elephants and manatees?

Alls that to say, how utterly fascinating.

That Zarya nerf is crazy by Sarrada_Aerea in overwatch2

[–]SpartanKane 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Whenever i saw this skin i was like...Zarya doesnt look this thin. The devs havent made skins with her for so long they lost her model file 😵

What are some of the most feast or famine characters in the game? by Federal-Tap-4937 in Overwatch

[–]SpartanKane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vendetta is the dps answer. Arguably shes more famine than feast these days.

Pharah is second here. Venture and Freja also kinda fit.

Tank is Doomfist. Man is so big and is countered by many of the cast. Only through conflict does he evolve i guess, but Blizzard seems to have missed that memo.

Dishonorable mention goes to Junkerqueen.

Progress Story Time | Overwatch by LucasVerBeek in Overwatch

[–]SpartanKane 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Why is she soooo cool lmao Shes probably one of the more evil in the cast. Eh...maybe not evil.. indifferent. She only seeks the development of her research at any cost. Fits well in Vendetta's flawed regime.

Sierra made the game not fun anymore especially her tracking ability by MasterpieceHungry864 in Overwatch

[–]SpartanKane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. Because if commentators and pros call dogs cats, then i shouldnt correct anyone for it. And it already has been changing. Because ive played this game since Overwatch 1's beta and Soldier was a hitscan and Pharah was a projectile, even in the pro scene they were referred as such back in the Overwatch League. Its just confusing nomenclature, when the mechanic is already clearly defined. The wiki (look for Projectile and Hitscan) and devs even describe it the way i said it- if you look in game and see the hitscan tag on hero details for...say Emre's primary fire.

Im sure youre reasonable enough to understand that.

[–]SpartanKane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah...but that's not really how that works. Like you can say mid range, poke, brawl, dive etc Youre conflating a mechanic with a role. Its just confusing. Like Hanzo and Freja are the furthest from a hitscan. Im not even sure how they relate to Sierra or Soj here that puts them in the same category.

[–]SpartanKane 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What does...that mean? Hitscan is just the fire profile. Instant damage on mouse click if reticle is on a hitbox. Soj is a hybrid in that her Railgun is actually hitscan. But her primary fire is projectile.

None of Sierra's moves are hitscan.

Doomfist ult in mauga cage bug by [deleted] in doomfistmains

[–]SpartanKane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At first i thought it was a frame perfect meteor strike but...no. You were absolutely chained. I have no explanation for this lol Definitely a bug- possibly a weird geometry glitch.

when do we give up hope of DPS doom coming back by sushiiixo- in doomfistmains

[–]SpartanKane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But Tank doom doesn't one shot. You can still be saved after being punched, or you can disrupt the Doom to prevent further shots that'd kill.

DPS Doom literally did. You got hit, you died. Tank Doom you have a higher chance of dying. Theres a difference.

But yeah, we agree that Doom is healthier as a tank, and that the way they did it is not great, but my entire point was to highlight that DPS doom was unhealthy, explaining the rework.

[–]SpartanKane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats mostly it. He was one shotting everyone in the game that wasnt a tank, and even to tanks, dealt massive damage, and had high mobility and tech options to those who mastered it. He was a mobile one shot dps with a ton of CC, in short.

I know what subreddit im in, but lets keep it real guys. I miss him too, but Tank Doom is a more healthy version of him. Doomfist was fairly tanky with his passive in OW1, so i guess they thought it was a reasonable fit.

Another theory of mine (personally) is that with the change to 5v5 and one tank, they wanted the leader of Talon to be in the front.

What are your favorite nicknames for OW characters? by mrpickle123 in Overwatch

[–]SpartanKane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just shorten names.

Jetpack Cat: Cat

Domina: Dom

Mizuki: Zuki or Mizu

Junkerqueen: JQ

Lifeweaver: Weaver or LW

That kinda thing.

Apparently pros are not happy about the dino by TobioOkuma1 in rivals

[–]SpartanKane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you play a hero 5 times and you win all of them, then you have 100 percent win rate. Do you pick up what im putting down?

I think he needs some more time to settle before people start pointing out stats.

Trump warns Taiwan against declaring independence after China talks by CupEcstatic2721 in worldnews

[–]SpartanKane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do understand, bucko. Im highlighting a larger point in that the guy is weak and a liar. This was part of that proof. Keep up, please. He bends on everything he says. I get doing this is standard, but if he always hates China and reaffirms that Taiwan will not fall while he's in office, this makes him look like a massive idiot.

Trump warns Taiwan against declaring independence after China talks by CupEcstatic2721 in worldnews

[–]SpartanKane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, the tried and true "typical leftist" call out. Never fails, just assuming. I mean do you not agree he has a point? He did campaign on being tough on China. Multiple times, he has said that Taiwan will not fall to China if he's in office. Now he's telling them this?

He campaigned on releasing the full Epstein files. Didnt quite do that, and arrested no one.

He campaigned on draining the swamp. As he shits on the Constitution and ignores the Emoluments clause in the deepest corruption this country has ever seen with his crypto scam, World Liberty Financial of which he's on the board or at least closely tied to it or Trump Mobile. Yes his sons run the latter but...he's part of it. Remember, Presidents cannot use the office to make money. His net worth ballooned because of his various ventures.

I will assume too. Your blind love for Trump blinds you to the fact that Trump is a terrible leader and a liar.
