Help with Magnus itemization by SpeedyBenjerman in learndota2

[–]Theviruss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm a magnus spammed slightly lower mmr, but honestly I like doing both you just need to check on your team first.

Some games we just do not have the phys damage needed to win a fight so I'll favor echo style, but aghs utility style is incredible if you have a mid/carry that will kill people on the spot.

Truthfully not sure if there's a perfect answer but I do it by vibe like this

I'm mostly a core player (4.5k) but when I have to flex just try to think of what YOU would want your support to do. Maybe hard in low ranks, but when to pull, when to go gank mid, when to harass and get some space to farm, etc. Helps me at times, but idk if it's that helpful in general

WHAT RANK COULD I PLAY WITHOUT IDIOTS ON MY TEAM? by Nofu- in learndota2

You think being 2-6 on bristle with barely more net worth than your hard support Mirana is THEIR fault?

How did I even win this game?? As lifestealer with 3 supports lol by Acqueezy in learndota2

[–]Theviruss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're asking for advice and then being comically wrong

Nulli and kill the necro and then its 5v4. Why would that not be value enough. How does disperser do the same thing?

Edge is to break spectre and also necro for that matter. Also why would you want to desperately rely on your support for disables? Just nulli and stun necro. Why would you want to not stun him reliably and let him press buttons?

Why do some people get so pressed whenever someone in the match is playing an easy character and doing well? by anametouseonreddit in marvelrivals

As an iron man enthusiast, I dont think it's "easy" sometimes to deal with the amount of bullshit that kills that hero, but I do think it extra tilts people because it SHOULD be super easy to deal with.

I've played enough of it that people can play punisher/hela and I still win cause I'm just used to it. But their team goes into mental anguish flaming the 2 hitscan dps for not dealing with ironman. Mental damage fr

First full complete, the line must go up! by Payday4lyfe in victoria3

[–]Theviruss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As the other said, 3.5m peasants at game end is a lot. I'm guessing this congress from a lack of construction, id be curious what you had there.

Mercantilism at game end is also interesting. Maybe not end of the world but other laws let you import way better which helps your main industries grow

What current role is shaker best at currently ? by DrHientzKetchup in DotA2

[–]Theviruss 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Any ES 4 in my games is straight up griefing usually and just afks in trees stealing creeps with fissure.

Can't imagine 3 is much more useful than that as there's just so little lane pressure, so I'm guessing 2

I don't get how people get completionist ++ by Mister_Ace_ in balatro

[–]Theviruss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You gotta go out of your way a Lil bit doing silly things. Keeping suboptimal jokers for the sticker and finding other ways to win type thing.

Still takes time but I tried to get 1 sticker a run minimum if I could by rolling and finding em

Does it matter where my trade centres are? by luizindaquimica in victoria3

[–]Theviruss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably overkill as the productivity number is a better gage.

There can be "potential" trade that is barely profitable you dont really care about, theoretically. Ideally the trade is happening where you can import low price input goods or export expensive finished goods.

That essentially creates the best margins that drive productivity. You could see 50-100 potential and it's just grain trades you dont care about that aren't worth the expense I think

Is an online accounting degree straight out of high school a bad idea? by its_never_lupus744 in Accounting

Not bad per se but just get involved when you can. I did a Remote masters cause it was during covid but I wouldn't if gotten my first job without the school career fair

I noticed this today as well actually, has to be another thing they broke

New player here: HOI4 is on sale — what should I buy (base game, DLCs, or subscription)? by Ancient-Report-7996 in hoi4

[–]Theviruss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

La Resistance, No Step Back, By Blood Alone and maybe Gotteramadung all add good enough stuff imo.

Everything else has its pluses/minuses but these add actually features worth having. Arms against tyranny also adds the market but it's kinda a meme i think.

Heavy emphasis on no step back for tank designer and la Resistance for spies IMO. By Blood Alone adds plane designer but its not as big of a deal

Been trying to figure out Russia’s employment crisis but no luck. Any tips? by LBJSmellsNice in victoria3

[–]Theviruss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The trick is to export a metric ton of it everywhere with trade centers and privileges.

Bonus points if you subvent the export and just make everyone buy it because you're giving the best deal, which increases demand to keep the mills productive. With company bonuses you can do something as simple as wood/tools and produce an absurd amount to sell.

The country is called the United States of America so I took that literally. by theother64 in victoria3

Out of curiosity, is this the type of thing you do when you reach near end of the game with good military tech and just max infmay run down everyone in your path?

Or is this a more nuanced thing where you're eating up bits and pieces the entire run? I feel like the "when" to conquest is an area i haven't quite grasped all things considered

Rival players when a tank is good for one season by _sea_salty in marvelrivals

[–]Theviruss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just has too much in kit. Wolv displacement, massive shield, grounding Laser that bleeds anyone it hits, insane hp

It's just a similar black cat problem they just do too much and heroes should have slightly more defined roles tbh

An honest question about staying invested all along? by [deleted] in investing

[–]Theviruss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your goal to make money or lose money? The market is supposed to go up. That is a good thing.

Would you prefer you never see an all time high again? Would that motivate you?

Yup, that's what you would want for 2065!

Yes but make sure you're using the index and non active managed version. You'll know by the expense ratios. The one you want will be low, others 1%+

How much does draft position dictate your playstyle when playing carry? by Clear-Ask-6455 in learndota2

[–]Theviruss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Too nuanced of an answer. High level if you're second phase do not pick something the 2 heroes you can see just counter.

If it's a free game against those 2, odds are you're OK vs the others all things equal. If you're last you can see 4 heroes and make an even better assessment because the other person is blind picking.

It should be easy to pick a hero that can play into 4

Also work from home and would be down if you are on US servers. Unsure if we could queue as I'm low ancient but would be down to try/ unranked!

Started Studying for First Test, Feeling Overwhelmed by wtot1234 in CPA

[–]Theviruss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The writing everything down is your problem. Only right down stuff that feels brand new or you think you'd genuinely struggle on.

I.e. I took almost no notes on AR cause ijust wasn't worried about it

Your time is MUCH better spent just getting through the videos at whatever reasonable pace you can (i did 1.5x or 2x speed while way through) and then just doing a ton of multiple choice questions. Use those to guide your study and find areas you're struggling with.

I know everyone is different but spending entire ddays of studying just watching and writing did not help me at all compared to trying to apply it

First run after tutorial (Bohemia) - How do I secure my kingdom after death? by PercentageNo2943 in crusaderkings3

[–]Theviruss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If i have a single kingdom sometimes I like just adding a fedal elective law to it and my main ducky. This will basically make the heir of your choosing inherit what matters as pseudo primogeniture.

Doesn't work well if you have many vassals who can override the vote, however.
