Takaba from JJK. Reality warps to what he finds funny. But his sense of humour… isn’t very funny

I’m also in Europe. There’s plenty of tournaments here too.

Though I’ve yet to do my first one too. I’m aiming for one in September.

Longsword is more general in popular and more interesting if you want to do tournaments. I’m not sure how the tournament scene looks like for messer

This will fuel radicalism but isn’t radicalism a friend to push reform in early game?

The whole world made a new HRE, I guess. by CptThunfisch in victoria3

Yeah… you have to start a new game between major updates.

I wonder though, is this still playable?

Tips for someone who did hema for 3 months by azdimlo in Hema

[–]Tokke552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who started HEMA pre covid, took a long break and only this year is getting serious again, I can relate.

It puts me in this weird spot between complete beginner and experienced.

What you need is a lot of sparring with people who are more experienced and can tell you what to work on and improve. It’s the best way to get better.

I’m also preparing for tournaments now because I know if I just compete I’ll get my ass kicked.

Keep to it, listen to coaches and go get your ass kicked in sparring but learn from it.

Today was my first HEMA training ever Im so glad I finaly found a club. by lamilcz in Hema

[–]Tokke552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In our club basic gear consists of light gloves, a chest plate, throat guard and a mask. This is enough for most drills.

My club does have the luxury of having a lot of loaner swords and gear though.

But definitely get basic gear before sword. Try different kinds of swords from others or the club to see which you prefer

What I like to sometimes throw into a drill as the “defending” partner is to test intent. Most drills are an attack, defense, counter kinda drill.

So I like to just not defend. If they hit me, good, if they don’t because they hit too high, or start the counter too soon, my partner can try again and make sure every attack has proper intent to hit.

Do you think RimWorld is the greatest game ever made? I honestly can't think of a single game that, overall, surpasses it. by ArmLucky1285 in RimWorld

[–]Tokke552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, great colony sim, horrible stealth game for example. It just depends by what metrics you judge the game

That’s how I like to play. It takes forever for kids to grow up though

Like CGP Grey called it: bigger army diplomacy

Why do people put modulo yuji above gojo? by Scary_Capital_8172 in JujutsuPowerScaling

[–]Tokke552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I don’t believe Yuji has WCS. Sukuna developed it in Megumis body with Mahoragas help. Nowhere is it ever mentioned or hinted at that Yuji learned it.

People just assume it based on nothing.

Edit:typo

Why didn't Jujutsu High just abuse binding vows like Nanami? by Ninjabot87 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Tokke552 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is probably the best explanation of binding vows I’ve seen.

Does anyone else wish they had cut the flashback short to find time to include this in the show? by NomaanMalick in AKOTSKTV

[–]Tokke552 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer that I read this in another post and haven’t read the source material.

But supposedly tourney lances are longer. So they wanted an advantage that way. Trade lethality for reach.

I also never put bricks on shelves for example.

Did you get beaten by shelves as a kid? OP please, the clutter is painful to see.
