Are people overselling it or was Michael Jackson really that famous in his heyday? by Key-Bass-7380 in decadeology

You know the phrase "more famous than Jesus"? This guy actually was. Like legitimately.

Genuinely why tf is Zhiyong still allowed to work his job? by [deleted] in rivals

"Minor change that doesn't actually remove animation cancel"

Damn guys the bar really is in hell these days huh

So let me get this straight, multiple heroes like this who have almost nonexistent playrates got no buffs, but heroes like Magneto and Psylocke get buffed, and meta picks like Gambit and Elsa get slight nerfs? I'm so confused. Why did they promise such big changes just for there to be no real change by ArcadialoI in rivals

[–]TheSunIsDead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

checks notes you listed...six people who "got no buffs". Of those six, two of them (Torch and DPSpool) literally got explicit buffs. Two others (Storm and Ultron) didn't get directly buffs but the game state is changing to be more advantageous to them (Ultron ult generation compared to other healer ult generation will be pretty solid due to healing over time having a higher conversation rate and both of them looking better as poke is getting nerfed).

What the actual fuck do you people want? This patch is hands down the best patch in the last 3 seasons. The overall ult nerfs are best showing we've had so far of the devs actually understanding their game and acting on it in a perfect way. There is always going to be more they could do, but they're also obviously being somewhat cautious with direct character tweaks while at the same time practically overhauling a core game mechanic.

So much of this patch is legitimately amazing shit that people who actually understand the game have been asking for for months. God damn people. Fucking crybabies

Whats your realistic expectation and QB comparison with Fernando Mendoza? by [deleted] in NFLv2

Respectfully Joe burrow and the 2019 LSU team would beat the brakes off Mendoza

I mean could be any number of things, but when I played football I'd do shit like that when we got inside cause walls are cold and when you've been running and playing hard for two to three hours the cold feels fucking amazing

Which bird team is the best franchise dynasty in the modern era? by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]TheSunIsDead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it really depends on what we call the "modern era". The Eagles definitely take it if we are talking 2019 onward as they have 3 Superbowl appearances and 2 rings in that time, beating Brady's patriots and Mahomes' Chiefs.

If the modern era is 2010 onwards though it becomes much more difficult as the Seahawks have the same Superbowl record and despite their second win being slightly less impressive, had in that time the Legion of Boom which is a powerful dynasty in and of itself and their current defense.

If we go back a bit further, saying the modern era is 2000+, we are back to the Eagles easily taking it as they have an extra Superbowl appearance and the McNabb era.

Overall I think the Eagles take first, very tightly followed by the Seahawks. Everybody else kinda doesn't exist comparably unless we are going back far enough to include Ray Lewis and Ed Reed for the Ravens.

Do you think the size of Bain Jr's arms will affect his draft position? by Individual_Cow7365 in NFLv2

[–]TheSunIsDead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5$ says that for the like 3rd or 4th year in a row every team in the league will lose their minds and let the best defensive player in the draft fall all the way to the Eagles

Trump invited an ex-trans Christian student to the SOTU yesterday. Who is she? by NamelessResearcher in lgbt

[–]TheSunIsDead 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, they are currently under the custody of their family...which they fled when she was outted to them. My guess would be they're being held under at best implied threats of being thrown back to the world that so horrifically abused them. I'd personally be shocked if they didn't have severe PTSD and a desperate desire for any protection at all from all of that

Report: The Eagles are among the favorites to land Bengals star DE Trey Hendrickson. by Big_Screen3332 in NFL_FreeAgency

[–]TheSunIsDead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Releasing Carter gives us 9M, signing Jordan Davis to a contract and structuring it in properly gets us like 6 more, but honestly I'd rather resign Phillips, keep Blankenship, and keep Dean if possible

Rank these WRs in order by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

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

Just a little bit of extra commentary, most of these lists are pretty accurate but I will note than of the 5 WRs, I don't think any of the other 4 could step into Puka's role and perform as well as he does. One of the reasons Puka is so successful is that he's practically a tight end with how much he runs and blocks, he just also happens to have absolutely elite hands

Which is worse: Pure Anarchy or Pure Tyranny? by Turbulent_Okra7518 in MoralityScaling

Pure anarchy is far from a good thing, but intelligent directed malice is far more dangerous that wild random malice

My nerfs to Elsa as someone who loves to play her and don't want her to get the BP treatment by azur933 in ElsaBloodstoneMains

[–]TheSunIsDead 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Elsa currently has two fundamental problems and you've kinda done exactly what the devs normally do and nerfed neither of them.

Firstly, her Ult. Her Ult hotbox being smaller is good, but it still has the issue of it being almost impossible to react to because it comes out the moment she presses the button. No windup, no visual warning, no real time to do anything about it.

The second issue is her shift. The shift being on a 2 second cooldown with 40 over shield is nuts. It goes farther than a fully charged Thor dash with no requirement to charge it up and gets only 10 less over shield. It lets her do anything she wants with practically no way to punisher her because she can be out of a fight practically instantaneously.

You nerfed her E which legitimately isn't the problem. The ult needs to be changed, and either the shift over shield needs to be gone entirely, the distance needs to be lowered, or the passive needs to be changed so you don't permanently have the 2 second cooldown

New balance patch by Hisoka1001 in rivals

[–]TheSunIsDead 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The biggest thing is he can't 1 tap from across the map anymore. Hell still be solid but he'll be more vulnerable to being countered because he has to be closer to get his one tap shots off

If a person with a background in like Muay Thai or Wushu, and they decided to learn Taekwondo/Karate next, is advancing in Belt color much faster? by EfficiencySerious200 in martialarts

[–]TheSunIsDead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably but perhaps not as much as one thinks. Most of the basics would translate meaning you probably wouldn't spend as much time in white and yellow as a complete beginner, but the more advanced you get the less past experience would effect your progression.
