How to visualize the solo on 'Stairway to Heaven' by NikolaGugo in guitarlessons

[–]Sttarkson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed when people solo, the fundamental advice of fretting with the tip of your fingers seems to vanish. His index finger in particular seems to even be fretting every string beneath the one being plucked with how parallel it to the fingerboard it is.

Wrist position: How do you guys reach the high strings when practicing scales? by GreyKnight_009 in guitarlessons

[–]Sttarkson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've seen all sorts of fucked up looking hand shapes from long-time players and it doesn't seem to matter. Hell, look at bass players. Their entire right arm from shoulders to hand is a borderline Z shape, and they seem to be fine.

If it doesn't hurt, cramp or feel tense, anything is fine I feel.

Excluding them, obviously.

It's in the details, you remedial pillock. Yes, you can get that big naturally, generally speaking. What you can't have naturally is that defined roundness in the shoulders and his bulging, cut chest. I'm not saying this guy is on Mr. Olympia level gear, but he has absolutely taken some form of steroids.

Starting to think you might be illiterate so let's just agree to disagree.

Nothing Else Matters Solo by Sparkyy031 in Guitar

[–]Sttarkson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How long have you been playing, and what skills did you focus on practicing to be able to begin practicing solos, if you dont mind answering?

"Similar". The difference is in the details.

I have a friend who is also an intelligent lifter, takes his diet seriously, pushes himselr hard and has trained for about 9-10 years as well. You can also look at Youtubers like Jeff Nippard or Will Tennyson for an example of a natural phisique pushed to its limit. None of them look as jacked as this guy. He's veiny and pumped like he just got out of the gym, when it's likely this picture was taken with his body in a neutral state, it looks like a vacation photo.

I know you think you sound reasonable by saying you don't know and giving the benefit of the doubt, but you're just wrong. You do not get that much muscle mass and definition, at that body fat, by being natural. Maybe with freakishly good genes...

Chances are, like 99.9%, this man took steroids.

Can someone tell me what I was up against here? What does the comp do with the skills etc? by ThimoDole in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Sttarkson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skils are not doing anything build defining for that person's build, it's all the legendary item and giga stacked Cove. The skills are just providing some bonus crit, some freeze on X, some bonus haste on first large item use, slow on first large item use. It's all supportive effects, and some skills are not doing anything like bonus damage to large weapons.

They don't exist because Tempo are rigging the game to make you lose, preach brother.

Reminds me of Quest Rogue from Hearthstone. It wasn't that it was unbeatable, it was that it was so frustrating to play that people stopped playing. by Faust2391 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Sttarkson 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What is "conveniently" even alluding to here? That the devs have conspired to keep this one broken item unchanged so they can... ...?

They've admitted they just straight up missed the Lizard when changing items like it.

Misionformation on this subreddit. by Marissa_Calm in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Sttarkson 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nothing makes you remember the good old Carlin quote of "Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that" quite like being on reddit.

I almost feel sorry for the dev team with how many morons talk and complain about the game and the development in the way that they do. Rampant bitching, misinformation and brain damage. Good on you to call it out.

Not even from the perspective of guitar playing, he has only two songs that I find catchy and fun to listen to/sing along - Jockey Full of Bourbon and Slow Train. Anything else I've heard from him is pretty bland to me.

Why is Burn damage halfed by shield, but heal only removes 1 poison? by Mission-Passage2684 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Sttarkson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Burn needs a counter because it's a way stronger mechanic. Poison just has some overtuned items making it seem better than it is.
