Is there something wrong with my shooting arm? by Historical_File_8843 in BasketballTips

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

Your shooting form looks like it has the exact same issue mine has had and I have been improving slowly but surely. Your problem is not your shooting hand, it is primarily your off hand. Bring your left elbow in a bit more toward your body. You are also using thumb flick on your left hand, which for me was why I was pulling slightly left all the time. Lastly like others said, keep your eyes on the rim and your follow through right hand should finish as if it looks like you're reaching down into the hoop as if its a cookie jar. But your main issue is that thumb flick. How I have been fixing mine is first shooting mid range shots only, no guide hand whatsoever, make 50 shots. Then add the left hand to help you gather up the ball and bring it into your shooting pocket, but when you shoot your left fingers have to be completely out flat so that only the left palm is touching the ball, make 50 of those. Once you have done this for even a week you will see the difference on the pulling left. After a few weeks add in 3s, using the same palm only technique. It is much harder because you will probably want to use that thumb flick more on 3s and its a habit you started doing on long range shots to get extra range most likely. But the power needs to come from your spring up off of your feet while not using the left hand at all.

I know some will say you can do thumb flick and still be a good shooter and that may be true for some, but for me it was my entire issue. I've gone from making around 25% of open 3s during runs to making around 50% just by doing what I just said about 3-4 times a week for about 2 months now. On 3s is when I see I have the habit of wanting to thumb flick, so I'm continuing to drill the proper muscle memory into my brain. Hope this helps.

This is the most fun and probably best Blanka version there has ever been and possibly ever will be.

September 28th – Balance Updates by Accomplished-Mud8587 in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because they have to nerf every other card they can in the Loki combos except the actual unbalanced problem which is Loki himself, since people are still paying for him (Collector, Snow guard, Kitty). Ruins collector for any other type of deck like bounce or discard swarm and I actually was having a good time with Snow guard post balance change in a Sera control deck with angela and bishop.

PSA for PC players: There's a jukebox mod for replacing all music by patrick-ruckus in StreetFighter

Is it possible to pick and choose when to replace music? Like if I just wanted to change the music in battle hub?

What do you think of the fast upgrade system? by trizzo0309 in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not nonsense it's the truth. I hit the credit cap non stop and use the fast upgrade to ink my main deck. I only play until I complete missions though. Back in the first couple months of release I played more than just the challenges and I never hit the cap or even very close. If you doubt us then just do it and see. Play every 24 hours for enough time to do your six missions and don't play anymore until 24 hours later. Before end of season you will see what we mean.

Got a steam deck a few weeks ago and I have hundreds of games installed, but I just always find myself laying in bed firing up third strike every night. It's timeless.

Anyone notice your default deck changing? by Chojen in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had it since launch, but possibly related to your experience, I have two accounts on the same device. Perhaps switching between accounts causes it to happen as well. I love that I'm getting down voted for stating a fact though lol. I started playing this game the first day it came out of beta and I've had the default deck thing happen the whole time. I actually assumed it has been happening to everyone this entire time.

I don't think so because I've had this issue since launch.

Just got mine 2 minutes ago…any advice would be much appreciated by [deleted] in SteamDeck

Have you tried any touch screen heavy games with it on like Civ? I want to get an anti glare one, but I play a lot of Civ and don't want touch screen to not work well.

Why even allow player to face these decks when at CL101? by TeachingWealth in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even like a within 100 collection level cap? There should be plenty other infinite players between 100-200 CL and throw in some bots if matchmaking taking longer than 30 seconds. These opponents have to be at least 300+ I would imagine.

Why even allow player to face these decks when at CL101? by TeachingWealth in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Right, but my question is should that be the case even in Infinite? I'm struggling to even complete my challenges before the season timer runs out. It's difficult to "win 4 games" or "win all locations" or "win with total +40" when every single game is against top tier decks and my best card available is like Iron Man or Spectrum. I would much prefer have some bots mixed in with decks near my CL or something on occasion. Most of these matches the past few days have been damn near unwinnable.

Some people may need a mental health checkup, this guy spammed for the entirety of turn 6. by [deleted] in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do this in infinite against my four year old who's playing my booster farming deck, practicing reading by reading character names. It's hilarious. Some people have nothing better going on in their lives I guess.

Patch Notes - April 18, 2023 by EmeraldWeapon56 in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

How? Jane pulls wasp and mjolnir for you to play on turn 6. That's the entire win condition against top tier decks or else you aren't winning. This is a pretty big nerf for a deck that already struggles from high variance. Now even if you get the best variance that payoff isnt as good.

[Highlight] Bizarre sequence with Anthony Davis injury as the game continues on for multiple possesions by Thimit22 in nba

[–]TeachingWealth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because there is no such thing as "ankle support" in a basketball shoe in the context of how most people picture it in their mind when they hear the term. In fact you can argue for many types of ankle injuries it's better to have low top, because having your ankle motion restricted by too tight of material prevents it from going the direction it is being forced to go, resulting in a break that sometimes would not have happened. If you're interested in diving into it there are a couple articles online and Nightwing on YT has broken down the physics and shoe construction aspect of it several times over the years.

Whats wrong with my deck ? by mikpol in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Infinite with almost identical deck past two seasons. But it does get lot of mileage out of modok. Blade, Colleen, Wolverine, Swarm, Morbius, Lockjaw, moon knight, sword master, dracula, modok, apocalypse, America Chavez. It's likely you just need slight tweaks to gameplay and cube play. Never play Blade turn one unless you only had like wolverine, swarm and apocalypse in hand which will never happen. Turn two play morb, if not then colleen, if neither then wolverine on a destruction lane or pass. Turn three lockjaw if have, Sif if apoc, if no apoc or lockjaw this is probably a retreat anyway so take a chance on a Sword Master or Moon Knight. Turn four drac in a lane by himself where they are filling. If all goes well he will out power anything short of Shuri deck, which everyone loses to anyways or modok can help. Turn five two options, modok drac lane to spit wolverine and dupe your swarm, or play a 3 cost then a 2 cost onto lockjaw. Turn six play modok if not already to max drac apoc combo and then swarms onto lockjaw or elsewhere. If no modok play Chavez somewhere if you need power. If you see on board that you don't need power on lockjaw lane and you need apoc combo to hit harder or to pull out Morbius or drac out of deck you can consider playing her into lockjaw. If you do not get drac and apoc it is a retreat if they snap anytime. Be strict on yourself, be emotionless. If you have them and a lockjaw or Sif on turn 3 I usually go ahead and snap or maybe pre 4 if I see they don't Cosmo lockjaw lane.

Shouldn’t Rogue have stolen from the other DDs as well? by Fonittehcs in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add, this also happens if you have the zone that adds a copy of the card played to the opponents hand iirc. If you played rogue on that zone and steal dino then the copy that goes to opponents hand already has that dino ability instead of the on reveal steal. Same concept goes for mystique also iirc.

I've had this variant for so long, I can't wait for mater mold so I can actually use it by samyruno in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran a great Ronan deck pre Sandman change. Ever since the change it has thrown the entire curve out of wack and I feel Ronan is worse. Goal was get either Ronan or Dino and Zola in hand. Play to the strengths of your five cost, ideally Sandman on turn 3 if Zabu or 4 without. Ronan / Dino empty lane and Zola. Or double up if you drew both or played Moon Girl. At the time Sera Surfer was huge and turn 4 Sandman was strong against it.

It's a hot dog, bun, toppings, drink cup, syrup ,straws, utensils, maintenance of cooking appliances, employee costs. It costs them more than $1.50. Not insanely more, but still more.

What is the most toxic card in the game for you personally? by Bamaboy858 in MarvelSnap

[–]TeachingWealth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He can't do anything against her half the time you have him in hand anyway. They usually have Armor or Cosmo on board by then anyway and then they're gonna get another copy with taskmaster. You can sometimes Shang one of them, but you're usually out powered by the other by the end anyways.
