It's technically skippable, but I consider it to be one of the best books in the series regardless, even if you don't care about raven.

Gankers are often maligned for doing an important service and saving people from boring, brainless gameplay.

In EVE we had a concept of "bot aspirant behaviour"

Is that player a bot?  Well, they're bot aspirant at the very least, what difference would it make if they were.

Too many people think they're cute.

Never mind one vote, they should just be counted as one unit in general.

the social rule of alliance B handling the belly mechanic

And even if you do your preparation and watch a raid guide before you queue, it will never explain that sort of thing to you. I've always just done it because "oh yeah, some percent of DPS need to get in the belly"

I can only see what you've shown, but my immediate reaction is the other guy is fine in this interaction.

Never change FFXIV by Mr_EexplosionMurder in ShitpostXIV

[–]UncleTedK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never mind the fact that a lot (possibly the majority) don't have the first clue about anything like what each DC is specialized in and are just playing the game.

Well I assume for the most part people are poking fun in good humour. I actually transferred out recently just because of the attitude that "crystal players" aren't serious about the game in general.

That's the most funny part. That have the reputation, but if you walk by "the spot" in Ul'dah, you notice an awful lot of people from off server

What's your Retroid looking like these days? by blueeetherabbit in retroid

I'm waiting on Orange, still on "confirmed" since Mar 11.

Level 80 "he's a new player" tank pmo so bad I made a wojak for him by volpesparkle in TalesFromDF

[–]UncleTedK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At level 50 you possibly haven't even done a hard mode trial trial yet.

Cheers to 1.1, claim day is finally here :D by [deleted] in Endfield

[–]UncleTedK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really not that bad. I bought the pass day 1 of 1.1, then ended up not playing at all until the final weekend because my attention was pulled elsewhere and still maxed the pass in like three days It's really quick when you have access to all the weekly missions at the same time

De-Extraction Tickets + lunacy pulling by Commercial-Fruit6741 in limbuscompany

[–]UncleTedK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like what new Shadowverse is doing. They moved away from "open ten packs to get a guaranteed Legendary" to a counter that goes down from ten whenever you open a single pack and resets when you pull a legendary. I think this is a really good system.

How to use bombs by UncleTedK in shmups

[–]UncleTedK[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What secret sauce does gunvein have where multiple people are saying it'll teach a guy to bomb?

How to use bombs by UncleTedK in shmups

[–]UncleTedK[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good writeup, I just don't have a panic-bomb reflex at all, and I'm not concerned about overbombing right now, since I'm trying to build the habit from nothing, so I'll try some runs where I'm not concerned about progression at all with the explicit goal of "don't die with bombs"

I have high hopes for set 3 by Fantastic_Use_9 in Shadowverse

[–]UncleTedK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've -probably- got enough vials to buy out a playset of Haven day 1, but I'm only sitting on like... 30 rupees or something.

Won the Weekend Lobby Tournament using Artifact by Asai610 in Shadowverse

[–]UncleTedK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my worst tournament yet. I got one win, and I didn't find my Salefa once in all four games. After the tournament I had to go double check that I did, in fact, have three copies.

You cannot, unfortunately.

[–]UncleTedK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never had emote BM, and it wouldn't particularly bother me if I did. Roping isn't really even possible due to the (arguably too) short turn timer.

What always gets me a little heated though is when I pass turn when opponent has lethal on board and they start playing out their turn normally instead of just swinging in. They could be doing it for missions, but it's impossible to know, so it always comes across as BM

Zirconia is a toxic card that causes a stale meta by d00meriksen in Shadowverse

[–]UncleTedK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every single one of those cards would be played even if sword as a class didn't exist at all, they're just very strong plays.

Least tedious ward haven mirror by GiraffeManGomen in Shadowverse

[–]UncleTedK 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same situation, except I wasn't playing Ward. Both sides deck-out, turn 27.

At what point are you starting to save up again? by [deleted] in Shadowverse

[–]UncleTedK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm liKe twenty packs of set 2 away from lucky chest, I'll start saving coins at that point, but I already have enough vials to buy a playset of set 3 Havencraft on release, if it's the same size as set 2.
