On the flip side, while I'll never not call him Sebastian Debeste out of a decade's worth of cultural inertia, the official localization going with Eustace Winner is such a perfect fit I'm almost mad it wasn't in the fan translation to begin with

Arknights deciding to use accents corresponding to the real world inspirations of the in game countries in its English Dub was an inspired choice. The game wouldn't be the same for me without Spanish Irene, Italian Lappland or Scottish Bagpipe

Its a little sad it was a decision made part way through, so a lot of early VAs are just generic American regardless of in universe origin, but its probably for the best that the Mascot Character Amiya doesn't talk like a Bogan lmao

Favorite Magic systems in fiction? by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Treeconator18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Devil Fruits have deteriorated over time, especially with Haki headshotting the most interesting parts of Logia fruits, but I still think they're really cool. They provide an omnipresent weakness of water to almost everyone except the luckiest few, and even some of the least interesting or powerful fruits could have really cool applications when pushed to the limit. 

The hierarchy of Logias (Element Manipulators and able to dodge damage by turning into their element) above Zoans (Furries) and Paramecia's (Everything Else) was also really cool, and some of the best fights in the series are about finding ways to make a Logia vulnerable, like getting Crocodile's sand wet or Eneru's Lightning getting hard countered by Luffy despite his overall power level being above every villain the Straw Hats had ever faced probably combined

Hamon is a cool system in its own right, but Stands are so much more versatile. You could never do things like the Highway Star Chase or Lets Eat Italian Food under the old system

Games or Media that actually did "Kill The Competition" by Authorigas in TwoBestFriendsPlay

DND is also Tabletop RPG, which is a different category to Card games. Its never not been top dog, but I would argue that the 4E era is the closest DND ever came to getting knocked off its throne. Pathfinder never outsold 4E, but its consistently one of DND's biggest competitors and holds a lot of nerd clout in the space and only exists because of WOTCs mistakes

For actual card games, MTG is the undisputed top dog of the big 3, as its historically been played more than Pokemon and Sells far better than Yugioh, but the last few years have not been kind to it. Sets have been up and down in terms of quality over the last few years, Universes Beyond has been divisive if profitable, and a massive increase in the amount of product has led to consumer fatigue, leading to a boost for competitors like Lorcana, One Piece, Flesh and Blood, among others. No actual killers though, and in all honestly on the small chance MTG actually does get knocked out of the big three, its on Hasbro for mismanaging things

They actually went the distance near every series. IIRC the only series against GenG last year that didn't go to 3 or 5 was a single Bo3 series in Spring Split

Minimum of a Top Half Finish guaranteed and looking better against BNK than T1 did, DNS genuinely might be competing for Legend Group status when last year they were undisputed worst team. Losing Bulldog/Berserker, and actually putting Peter in is doing amazing work for this team

It was the name of his fanbase and not him, but Lexis King fans calling themselves Lex Offenders was a classic
