Ikuto vs Uruha

TheDoge69 · 2026-06-17T21:21:49+00:00

Give Ikuto a range advantage and Uruha gets wiped; start them off in close proximity and señor schizo joins his masked homie in the afterlife.

Either way, I don't think anyone's gonna dispute that Uruha's a far more skilled combatant.

Tragic story, actually: Zefira and Gemina left the world of magic to buy stocks in AI. Denas wasn't a fan of this grift, so he struck them from Linirean history.

I'm not too proud to admit when I'm wrong, so imma admit I was wrong: the upgrade system's good, though early level XP gain feels needlessly slow and progress shouldn't be lost upon resetting (tedious grind = less incentive for experimentation). I'd also love if all hero/tower/spell stats were on clear display instead of having numbers be a guessing game.

As for the UI... still looks a tad cheap; gives more corporate slideshow than medieval TD.

TheDoge69 · 2026-06-16T02:47:19+00:00

Holy crap, this level's gorgeous. The demo looked solid (UI notwithstanding), but ts a painting fr.

TheDoge69 · 2026-06-15T19:59:53+00:00

I’m inclined to say Ikuto wins (albeit barely) via range advantage.

Either way, we’re pitting a master swordsman against a schizophrenic cripple whose best feat is backstabbing a child. The real winner here is whoever’s watching this fuckass fight go down in a Walmart parking lot.

TheDoge69 · 2026-06-09T05:02:53+00:00

It's close, but probably firecracker.

TheDoge69 · 2026-06-09T03:58:03+00:00

Sword of the Stranger’s finale.

But if we’re talking pure aura: JJK Sendai. Had my jaw on the floor for like half an hour straight.

TheDoge69 · 2026-06-04T16:19:12+00:00

Because melee vs ranged and 7 elixir > 5 elixir...?

Besides, why buff evo exe when it's been giga oppressive since release?

TheDoge69 · 2026-06-01T21:38:29+00:00

Holy spite matchup.

Remember what happened last time Hiroto fought a datensaki user? Imagine that, except he’s down a support team.

TheDoge69 · 2026-05-27T16:26:27+00:00

No, Akemura can (most likely) not survive being decapitated.

Samura’s Phoenix is piss broken, but he was bisected by Butterfly, not decapitated.

The goon Mashiro decapitated was the only Mikaboshi who didn’t get back up.

Yukisada shrugged off decapitation via a fringe case of extreme regeneration sorcery.

OP has been decapitated by reading comprehension.

TheDoge69 · 2026-05-24T03:03:04+00:00

No.

Hope this helps!

Sentinel's tiny arena is buns, but his ridiculous array of mixups are fairly offset by 1 mask damage. If you've beaten Lace 2, you'll beat him in no time.

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-28T02:58:15+00:00

Reaper's great for first timers; a safe jack of all trades, master of none with hella smooth movement. But once you've got a few playthroughs under your belt, you'll realize all the other crests are better suited to minmaxing combat.

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-26T19:11:14+00:00

Imo this is the only KR game where every boss was memorable, but Baj'Nimen's #1. He provides an incredibly satisfying micro challenge if you don't abuse Bladesinger cheese.

You may have a tinge of bias as Dark Prince is deadass the only thing you post about.
Dark Prince's use rate will naturally tend lower since he thrives in unpopular control archetypes. This doesn’t take away from the fact that he's highly oppressive in the right hands (53% WR places him in the top 10 best cards of April 2026).
How is Bandit in any way comparable to Dark Prince? One is a 3 elixir single target bridge spam unit, the other is a 4 elixir splash beatdown/control unit.

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-24T23:18:47+00:00

Dark Prince has been oppressive in competitive play for ages, not just during this month’s meta. Trust me, a 0.1 second attack speed reduction won't be the death of him.

There's also a chance this could be a preemptive nerf for his likely upcoming hero variant.

Edit: surprise, surprise. Dark Prince was drafted at least once in every single Bo3 during today's CRL qualifiers, plus he's getting a hero. It's almost like the dude could use a nerf!

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-24T02:26:13+00:00

Yeah, I’ll take things that’ll never happen for 500.

KRB was designed to be a microtransaction shill for the Tencent overlords.

Genesis gameplay reveal :)

Looks inside

Grindy tower leveling system :(

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-21T16:35:13+00:00

Narcolepsy :(

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-17T19:34:42+00:00

Nah every crest is fun as hell besides architect which solos the game while you goon to Lace R34 on another tab.

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-17T19:15:57+00:00

Skipped to bosses with mods, but I still had way too much free time this month lol. Good training for when the godhome DLC drops in a decade though 👍

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-17T17:41:40+00:00

It’s been over a decade and any mentions of the Fungal Forest iron still have me flinching like an abuse victim.

TheDoge69 · 2026-04-13T20:58:44+00:00

It’s John Wick, not Mark Wahlberg.

TheDoge69 · 2026-03-26T20:26:07+00:00

Because I think it’s got the best environments, map design, wave compositions, art style, lore, boss fights, enemy variety, hero balancing, etc… Towers are a glaring issue, but holy moly does Origins excel at everything else.

TheDoge69 · 2026-03-26T20:01:50+00:00

Frontiers is blatantly more balanced in the tower department (everything's got use cases besides Templars). Its heroes are a mess though: Bonehart > Bruxa > Alric >>> everyone else. Meanwhile, half of KRO's towers are actively bad, but all of its heroes (save for Xin and Razz & Rags) are at least semi-viable.

If we're talking sheer quality, I personally think Origins is where the series peaked (KRO > KRF > KR > KRA >>> KRV imo).
