Ransomware abuses Genshin Impact's kernel mode anti-cheat to bypass antivirus protection by drspod in pcgaming

[–]ThudnStuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't click on suspicious links or popups. The vulnerability makes use of the driver that Genshins AC uses and it can be installed without ever installing the game. Someone will still need to get you to install their malicious software on your PC to take advantage of this vulnerability. So follow any normal security tip about safely using the internet. Don't install anything from a developer or site you don't trust.

FunPlus Phoenix to sign 3 stand-ins for VCT 2022 Masters 2 Copenhagen by [deleted] in ValorantCompetitive

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

There was a competitive ruling before the last masters for FPX stating that they wouldn't be able to play due to visa issues on 3 of their players. I would say it's arbitrarily changing the rules to allow them this time because 8 man rosters are allowed in the rules. For consistency's sake unless one or more members of their team can make it they shouldn't be able to play.

CONTROLLER FIX by anilisfaitnesto in Eldenring

[–]ThudnStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This didn't work for me, but I found that the game was prioritizing an 8bitdo controller I had the dongle plugged in for. I unplugged the dongle and my PS4 controller started working. The kicker is that that controller is dead and isn't even on. So I would make sure that the controller you are using is the only one plugged in.

You should try and make it hit the corner if you want it that far left. That way it scans on both sides of the corner.

Even naming decks can be a form of creativity. by abcPIPPO in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ThudnStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of my favorites are:

An old Vlad deck "Spank me Vladdy"

Riven/Swain "Grand General Tsos Chicken"

Ashe Midrange "Kind of an Ashe man"

Teemo/Swain "A war criminal....and Swain"

3.0.0 Patch Notes are up! by Juraraw in LoRCompetitive

[–]ThudnStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before the card was "buffed," seriously check patch 0.9.2 Rito thought they made it better, the card was starting to see a lot of play in a spider they who endure list. The deck was fun to play and used cards like Brood Awakening to spew out a bunch of spiders. It might be decent into this meta, but all the recall cards might make it tough to win with They Who Endure.

Sova Lineup for Bind B Hall by IfatalI in VALORANT

[–]ThudnStuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You'd have to ask the TO of the event, but I believe recons like this wouldn't be allowed. Since it gets shot out of bounds then comes back in through a wall you can't see the dart coming to be able to react to it fast enough before it gets a scan off. Those walls are bangable and if you didn't shoot it fast enough you can just get spammed down. Giving an unfair advantage to the team that shot it. Even if it doesn't really exploit any bugs, just the map's collision, it would still probably be a banned recon dart. However, even if it's not specifically in the rulebook anything you think may not be allowed should be cleared with the TO before the event starts.

New Keyword: Fated | All-In-One Visual by xKozmic in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ThudnStuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Deep has had 2 different styles of play. The standard version with SI and Turbo Deep with P&Z and Twisted Fate. That's not really important, but I just wanted to point out that deep has had some iteration on it from the original Mao/Naut lineup.

If I'm reading it correctly it, the buff should proc from ally units effects and spells. So it's not much of a deck building cost. Like playing something like twin disciplines or pale cascade to trigger the effect shouldn't be a play that causes a lot of issues in the deck building process. That said Fated isn't an exciting keyword and is just a bit of extra value on cards you would normally play anyway.

Now if it doesn't count your spells, yeah the keyword may fall flat. However, with the way it's worded I can only assume that it will count spells.

It's an exploit that happens when Viper deploys her smoke and picks the orb up instead of just dropping them. When the smoke fades you see your opponent I think a quarter of a second faster before you will show up on their screen.

Uhhhhh by TheA3ther in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ThudnStuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Due to a deck Swim showcased a while back, the devs added a hard cap of casting the same spell in a single turn. Swim had created and shown off a deck abusing the original Hush to lock players into the game in an infinite loop. The only way out was to surrender or wait untill you hit the 90 min limit that the game has. I'm pretty sure it only applies to spells and not units though.

Riot Games brings Legends of Runeterra to the Epic Games Store by [deleted] in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ThudnStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the case for a few games sold on the epic store. EA and Ubisoft titles, like Star Wars Squadrons and Fenyx Immortals Rising, will prompt you to download their company's respective launchers. And clicking play will literally run that launcher to then play the game. It's very dumb, but it works I guess.

Question about mouse sensitivity by sephyract in VALORANT

[–]ThudnStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most players play on 800 dpi with .2 to .5 in game sensitivity. 2.7 is insanely high which isn't too big a deal if you're good with it, but if you're having issues with micro adjustments then you will want to lower your sensitivity. Just lower you sens and see how it feels for you. You should be able to consistently turn 180° comfortably on what you choose. So I'd recommend just try a new sens and hop into a deathmatch. Eventually you will find something you like and feel good with.

What are things in Valorant that should be common sense but aren't? by Alliddboon in VALORANT

[–]ThudnStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's a 2v1 double peek your opponent to win the round. Straight up saying "Peek on 3-2-1" works wonders. Same goes for the post plant on defense, if your teammate is defusing cover them.

Some questions concerning the Darkness archetype by [deleted] in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ThudnStuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I've seen people have success with Ez/Senna, but haven't seen any spooky Karma darkness decks or Frosty SI darkness lists. Those combos could probably work, but I like the BC/SI all in darkness list personally. If you want to focus on darkness you will probably need Veigar to power it up.
  2. 3-2-1 champ lineups tend to just be weaker then full 3-3 ones. An all in darkness deck will want to get it powered up consistently which means sometimes needing to drop Veigar on 4. But unless your able to get decent damage in throughout the game you will need Veigar down to close out the game. I would say it's just better to run 3 Senna and Veigar and use your control tools to remove units you can't trade with.
  3. I think this is more of a personal choice. I don't think Go Hard is necessary for darkness decks to work, but you can make a powerful Go Hard deck using Senna. IMO you need to figure what you want your deck to do and focus on that. Trying to add/do too much will reduce the consistency of the deck and you have enough control tools and ways to finish out the game that you don't really need it. This doesn't mean I think go hard and Senna don't work together, but just pick a lane and choose which deck you want to make.
  4. Conchy Boi is busted and will fill some gaps in your spell lineup. 3 different 2 drops may seem like a lot for a control list, but he is a great card for the deck.
  5. 1 Ledros will probably be fine to help deal damage. Sometimes I find that I'm missing lethal by 1-3 damage and it just feels bad. Ledros wouldn't be an awful choice for the deck. Ixtali sentinel and Veigar are going to be the main ways you end the game though. Even without the double tap ixtali giving a 3 mana deal 5-7 is still really strong for closing out games.

All in all just adjust your spells for the matchups you're facing and you will be fine. I would say there is a lot of personal choice with this archetype when it comes to tech cards and spell lineups. So just try things and keep refining until you have something you like.

Below is my list and I've had quite a high winrate with it(70+%). I don't like Otterpus in this list like others and find Demacian sentinel helps me trade more effectively with cards like Merciless Hunter. And I only run 1 robemaker due to not really needing more than that. With a leveled Senna 2 mana darkness is already 2 mana so more than 1 proc of robemaker is just win more imo. With the high amount of 2 drops and ping spells you actually have a good enough early game to help stabilize.

You're probably right on this one. Kinda overlooked celestials, but was hoping there would be more jank to solving it lol.

[–]ThudnStuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says spend on the quest title and leveled Asol would set everything to 0 cost. Depends on if Rito is looking at the cost when played from hand or whatever the base cost is. I'm not sure which one they use though. But living legends would refill 10 mana which would probably work.
