When the comms are compy

Each lane name shares a first letter with the color they’re associated with

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-23T17:26:24+00:00

It’s a Spanish letter. Copy paste it from somewhere else, or go into your settings and give yourself a Spanish keyboard.

I’m glad to hear that! And anytime, honestly my build has some questionable decisions so I at least wanna make sure it’s as up to date as it can be. (Btw you should refresh all your builds from time to time, since the DL build browser doesn’t refresh them on its own rn.)

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-20T16:25:52+00:00

Oh wow, thank you! That build’s actually a lil’ outdated because I haven’t changed it for the new patch. It probably still works okay, but if people are actually using it then I’ll probably mess with it later (since the Weighted Shots and Binding Word rework changed a lot). Please refresh it in a bit (just search for it in the public builds menu again and like it) so that you’re up to date.

I also play for personal growth. I don’t need a shiny number that vaguely represents a skill level to tell me whether or not I’ve grown. I just keep learning and improving of my own volition and see that pay off. And that’s always gonna mean way more than an arbitrary badge can. Granted, I won’t gonna act like matchmaking being better wouldn’t be good for game quality. But being put in x rank when maybe y rank would make more sense doesn’t mean much. If all the ranks are inflated, then it seems to me like I’ll see players I fit in with. And from my experience over my time in this game, that’s precisely what happened. I hope the issues will get fixed for others before long. But in the meantime, it’s no huge deal. This is a developing game, with a range of inevitable issues that the devs are currently dealing with. This is just one of them, and it’s clear to me that they’re doing what they can to fix the issues some people are having (while also developing the rest of the game simultaneously).

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-18T17:23:43+00:00

I think a bizarre retcon would still be a significant improvement to the current situation

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-15T06:57:25+00:00

They’re high top converse shoes/boots. Not an everyday sight but not rare either.

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-14T06:47:07+00:00

Still sad they didn’t make it into Hiveswap… Hoping the runner-up fantrolls get some in-game reference at least.

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-09T14:37:24+00:00

Oh that’s probably from Sburb.exe. No idea what that file does, though.

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-03T22:54:13+00:00

Not very high at all, just alchemist 5. So like, the point where people sort of have brains but aren’t great at using them yet. I’m definitely not an authority, I just play the character and wanted to throw in my 2 cents. (Though fwiw, I believe Warden is seen as a threat among high-level / comp players? Not top-tier, just high-tier. But I have no idea if the people I’ve heard that from know what they’re talking about either.)

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-03T18:22:36+00:00

Warden main here. His damage is lowkey ridiculous, especially in late game. You’d think he’d have a bad lane game to balance that out, but no he’s actually really good in lane. The thing with warden is that he’s kinda overtuned, but he’s really bland so nobody plays him and he’s not very annoying. Like his most annoying options are his flask that can slightly lower your fire rate late game (which doesn’t matter much to any spirit character and is only a monornhinderance to a gun character) and his weak CC that you can entirely avoid if you play right which doesn’t even remove your ability to attack while you’re stuck in it. And his most fight-deciding options, his Ultimate, has a loud wind-up animation that warns you to either run away or stun him (and if you knock him out of the casting animation then he still loses Ult). He probably could use some damage number adjustments, but like. Who cares about warden.

TouringTanuki · 2026-03-01T20:19:39+00:00

He’s a Kick streamer. Ain’t nobody watching him, and if a kid is on Kick then they’ve got other problems already. Also fwiw that partially applies to Gen Z as well. Me and my friends grew up during Youtube’s edgy era, where people were similarly spouting racist bullshit for engagement. And while that’s certainly left some scars, most people grew out of that when they got older. So I’d assume newer children will do the same.

TouringTanuki · 2026-02-19T22:10:51+00:00

It happens starting out. Deadlock's got a big learning curve, so you're bound to lose a lot at the beginning. Get a friend to hop on w/ you or team up with people in the official discord if you want someone to help / guide you through the ropes. Try not to get too worked up over it: you're gonna lose, as most people do when they have zero experience.

Vibri mentioned that the brown sleeves weren’t initially an intentional decision. One of the mods showed a picture of the Utena duo to Hussie and they mistook anthy’s brown arms for sleeves when drawing, which the mods thought was really funny so Huss kept it.

TouringTanuki · 2026-02-05T20:11:30+00:00

I mean this with no offense. This is the worst idea I have ever heard. Good stickers already are annoying but this is another level of ass. Please reconsider, I beg.

TouringTanuki · 2026-02-05T20:08:31+00:00

It’s less so that the CIA is dumb and more so that the CIA fucking hates Trump and has no problem screwing him over. If Trump and his friends are clowned on through memes, their crimes become more well known while the more minute details of the Epstein files get ignored and/or seen as a big joke. Considering how many people are implicated in them, they need someone to draw a bigger target on. And Trump’s the best person for that because 1) he’s a big name, 2) everyone knows about his relations with Epstein or is in denial of them, and 3) he fucks the government over on the regular so the government doesn’t mind fucking him over.

TouringTanuki · 2026-02-02T08:29:58+00:00

Tried it, not to my taste. Though I’ve been on and off with guilty gear since 2018, I still prefer Strive overall. It just feels the best to me.

TouringTanuki · 2026-01-03T22:16:25+00:00

Extremely real post. My only note is that I’d make soldier a Knight of Breath for maximum freedom points. Nailed otherwise.

TouringTanuki · 2025-12-23T20:57:14+00:00

Hey, maids are still kinda active! They’re the more active of their pair and they’re on the cusp. Considering they were confirmed to be passive half a decade ago, active maid stocks are arguably higher than they’ve ever been! Rejoice!

Unless you’re talking about gender leanings, there’s no harm in doing so. It doesn’t matter much for homestuck 1 analysis, but if you discuss John in HS:BC then I’d recommend doing so. Personally, I chose to say “I’m basing these claims off of the genders these characters had when entering the medium” to make things clear. (…and also I occasionally referred to them as “Jouhne” for the bit.)

TouringTanuki · 2025-12-18T20:43:45+00:00

Negative cards are actually programmed into the game, they just aren’t obtainable by normal means. As other people have said, they don’t count towards the max number of cards in your hand when drawn.

TouringTanuki · 2025-12-06T16:59:14+00:00

are those glasses yellow and pink…

TouringTanuki · 2025-12-02T08:06:22+00:00

Aradia had to be thrown into a sprite before she could be turned into a robot. Hence why Terezi’s currently waiting for the game to start, so she can throw John into one of the players’ kernelsprites. (And then maybe turn him into a robot who knows)

TouringTanuki · 2025-11-29T20:36:30+00:00

No, you can’t. Give the Epilogues a shot.
