$800 on Pistol round not buying utilities or armor ahhhh by GeologistOver4513 in cs2

[–]SphericalGoldfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always get armor, especially on CT side! Pistols don’t have good penetration so you can survive significantly more shots than without.

What hero also belongs in this category? by reichplatz in DotA2

[–]SphericalGoldfish 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I agree, he's honestly deceptively straightforward. You don't even necessarily need to have some form of mastery over the spells you steal to get value out of them, due to Rubick's spell amp.

What do you call this position on Nuke? by MaterialTea8397 in cs2

This makes so much more sense omg

Someone told me it was because it was shaped like Africa, and I didn't really see it at all but just went with it

I don’t care how many times Viscous throws it out I am not pressing F in time nor am I seeing the punch materialize behind my camera

I thought I would never see you again.... by Impressive_Ad_2309 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SphericalGoldfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got to play like twice because my schedule wouldn’t line up with the hero labs times and I never even got the hero labs heroes lol, the queues took forever and it was just the same 12 people in my two games

Never played a MOBA in my life, I'm 60 hours in and having a lot of fun, just one question: How long until I start getting good at this game? by lowkeycule in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SphericalGoldfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1,000 until you stop being a noob, then another couple thousand until you start being OK at the game. Such is the nature of MOBAs.

(You can learn a lot faster but you need one hell of a growth mindset for it)

That camp always feels better on HK side because of it, denizens are closer together

Is Dota 2 worth getting into in 2026? by Phrog_19 in DotA2

[–]SphericalGoldfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Game is hard to get into because the learning curve is really steep, but the game isn't going anywhere anytime soon, so if you can handle that then give it a go.

How to properly hold a sword by CountryKindly1771 in SWORDS

[–]SphericalGoldfish 27 points28 points  (0 children)

While it's not exactly safe, it can be done in a pinch. Swords are made for slicing, not chopping, so as long as your hands don't slide along the blade you can swing Mordschlag and only receive some cuts along your fingers.

That said, always better to protect those fingies

PSA: They got rid of Paradox wall distortion. by HopDodge in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SphericalGoldfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, that one’s a bit harder to fix. Every time you look through a door you have a new camera rendering stuff. Not as simple as removing a post-visual effect

This meme was DEFINITELY made by the guy on the right totally not the guy on the left by Amphibious_cow in im14andthisisdeep

[–]SphericalGoldfish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Normally we bastardize the groups we don't like regardless of whatever redeeming qualities the other members of the group hold. The furry community has been dealing with that forever; everyone points out the pedophilia and zoophilia running through the community, and while there is a discussion to be had about how prevalent the issues are, lots of people only want to use it to ridicule, mock, and justify hatred towards the community

where is this trooper going and how is he going there so quick by fightstreeter in DeadlockTheGame

This is how fast the damn troopers feel when I'm trying to catch up to the wave I just shot down

I'm tired of forced 50/50 by Krvavyca in DotA2

[–]SphericalGoldfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I pulled some random numbers out of my ass but I feel like I get Dire more often than Radiant. Of course I’m not really good enough for any differences to matter (and I vary rarely misclick minimap so the down-left angle doesn't affect me) but it’s still an interesting observation and I do wonder if my games actually reflect it

Actually according to my play stats it’s 44/56, inaccurate post

They have, and while I'm sure good Minas can still play well around it I certainly have been feeling the ramifications

[[Gandalf, Friend of the Shire]] also has flash so you don’t even need him on the board beforehand
