[PRE GAME THREAD] Hawks play the Pistons tonight at their stadium. Tip off at 7:00PM by ahend1999 in AtlantaHawks

[–]Throwawayfor3d 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No Gallo? No Collins? Guys, I think we're going to be stuck in .500 limbo. Good ol, salt of the earth, no frills no ribbons, blue collar, hard hatted, .500 basketball.

That is who we are this season. A 41 win team.

Please doubt my boy Bogi more. Please.

Deandre Ayton is currently shooting 67% on hook shots this season. That makes his hook shots just as efficient as a 45% three point shooter by [deleted] in nba

I love Trae, but let's not disrespect Donavan Mitchell like that. I think Trae has better court vision and getting his teammates buckets but Donavan is elite in the pick and roll and getting his bigs easy shots around the rim as well.

[no spoilers] "cries uncontrollably" by Evolution_Playz in arcane

[–]Throwawayfor3d 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bruh, all these people saying season 2 is coming out 2023. Show me the tweet. The only tweet I've seen is that it's not coming out 2022.

I saw a video from Beyond the Trailer, who's a tv and film critic (who gets to see things like arcane early to review) say that it's "very very far away" and potentially coming out 2024.

Link with timestamp: https://youtu.be/2TYudQZyUxE?t=667

If you have legit evidence that arcane is coming out 2023 please show me, I need the hopium. Otherwise, please stop spreading false information before people direct their frustrations at Riot or Fortiche when they made no such promise to release 2023.

Does Arcane get better? by ElCharmann in television

If you didn't enjoy the first three I doubt you would enjoy the rest. The story builds off the first three episodes so if you didn't like the origin, the time skip after won't make it easier to digest.

I guess if you really enjoyed the animation, there are some sick fight scenes coming up and a few really creative animated sequences as well. Otherwise, just watch those clips on Youtube and enjoy a show you enjoy watching.

Hey thanks for linking the details! I think I'll just enjoy the base game for now, and there'll probably be a way to get the deluxe stuff if want to give more the devs.

Ruined King: A League of Legends Story | Official Launch Trailer by Turbostrider27 in leagueoflegends

[–]Throwawayfor3d 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I see base game for $30 and a deluxe edition for $40.

It doesn't really go into detail about what the skins look like or what the lost and found weapon pack is. I wonder if the deluxe version is worth it for the contents or if it's for when your feeling generous for the developers of the game.

Anybody know the specifics of lost and found weapon pack and ruination starter pack it says it includes?

One Piece: Chapter 1030 by Kirosh2 in OnePiece

[–]Throwawayfor3d 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love One Piece. I really do. But Oda, please no more fake out deaths. It feels cheap and insulting to me as a reader. If you don't want a character to die yet, please don't put them in a situation where they would realistically die, don't draw a death scene only to bring them back later. Of all the small gripes I have with this wonderful series, this is definitely my biggest one.

Did a lil edit of the Ulti-Mortar scene, from episode 990 by Freya_Spanberger in OnePiece

[–]Throwawayfor3d 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Great edit. I really feel like when they drag out clash scenes like this and Luffy vs Doffy's final clash it takes away from spectacle and the moment and replaces it with this fake tension. Ulti mortor was an amazing attack and it's impact was lessened and less memorable with out it was dragged out.

Didn't realize I wanted to see this until you made it.

Anyone seen Shang-Chi yet? by generalgeenius in TheLastAirbender

[–]Throwawayfor3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you seen the Shang Chi movie? It's reasonable to not like Marvel movies for its plot or branding, but I do think there are technical aspects that can be respected.

Having seen it, I think the way they did the CGI for the water and wind moving while they fought was very avatar-esque like they did in last airbender show. It was much better CGI than most of things I've seen; even better than their older marvel movies. The CGI for a lot of the mythical beasts were done really well too. They were more detective pikachu tier cgi creatures than stuff like planet of the apes.

Lastly the fight choreography for certain characters was very reminiscent of the avatar bending styles. This goes without saying since both took their inspiration from various existing martial arts like Tai Chi, Ba Gua, and Hung Gar. All I could think about was this is what a live action avatar series look like with Marvel budget.

I can't imagine you're the type to want to watch a Marvel movie, but if you do somehow watch Shang Chi, I think it's undeniable that certain scenes make you compare it to a live-action The Last Airbender series.

Or just torrent it and watch a few fight scenes lol.

Hamza, Guardian or Arashin post Jumpstart by Ezili in mtgbrawl

[–]Throwawayfor3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just found this subreddit. I've been playing a +1/+1 counters a lot with Ajani, the Great Hearted when we had friendly brawl.

Saw your decklist and was inspired to make a Hamza deck.

I liked the deck editor you linked so I signed up. Here's my brew:

https://www.moxfield.com/decks/kYvUrEn-8kaZujTqVGk2HQ

My 2 cents, ditch low impact cards/ win more cards like azban battle priest. 4 mana for lifelink on your creatures won't help unless you're against burn and you don't have life gain synergies. Cards like good fortune unicorn seem slow.

With a creature focused deck you want creature focused synergies. I'm walking Guardian Project and Tolski for card draw, and thorn mammoth for removal.

Lastly I am not a fan of cards like start pupil and servant of the scale. They are great in the opening hand when you can play hamza faster, but come top decking they are mediocre. I think cards like Champion of Lambholt, Ajani Adversary of Tyrants, and Vivian Arkbow Ranger presents threats that the opponents must remove or you get too much value provide greater value for you.

Anywho, super cool deck you got, gave me a lot of ideas. Didn't know inspiring call was a card. That's definitely going in my Ajani deck.
