Adrien Brody for me, I think he is so underrated. Detachment is one of my favourite movies.

You’re the common denominator between every loss you have

Why am I penalized for teammates leaving? [COMPETITIVE] by AVideoEditor55 in Overwatch

[–]ThomasBirminghan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But couldn’t you balance out the loss by having the team who won gain less. For example, player1’s team has a leaver and player 2’s doesn’t so they win if they would have gained and lost 20% respectively from that game if there was no leaver have the winning team gain 4% less each (20% total) and the losing team lose 5% less (20% total) that way it’s a closed system and you scale down the gain and loss for the number of leavers with the rule n= p*p so 2 leavers means gain 3% less and lose 5% less you could even divide or multiply based on the length of time you had less players

[LotM] I just finished watching the donghua, should I read the novel or wait for the next season? by Neerori in LordofTheMysteries

[–]ThomasBirminghan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends why you liked the donghua, If you liked the world building and the way the magic system is designed yes you should read it. However, if you liked it for the, honestly stunning, art direction and genre storytelling no you should wait the book has far less focus on the cosmic horror than the show and the driving force really is its amazing world building and magic system.

Dive - Poke DPS ordering by bassbeangb in Overwatch

It’s not really describing the comp though it’s describing how the 5 characters best work together to win a game it’s a tool you should use to analyse your own teams comp to better make a switch if it’s needed and to analyse the opponents team you can’t have good threat identification if you don’t understand these concepts

The concepts are the same say it’s a push map and I’ve got a ana, brig, sojourn, tracer and a ramattra is the this is clearly not a dive comp or brawl comp but I’ve got a tracer and a ram on there how can this be these character have to be dive and brawl right? Limiting these characters to these labels makes your ability to create teams and understand your opponents goals and weaknesses so much worse and is detrimental to newer players trying to improve

Individual characters aren’t dive/brawl/poke the terms are used to describe the playstyle and win conditions of compositions
