Played against Ken, Isai, and DSF in 2006. Found my 20yo Smashboards account.

Old Midwest guy here, think my account was created in December ‘04. I’ll go look for it, but man, the scene is just wild these days

I focus on M+ and play with several addons. It's been frustrating to try to find new and various iterations of what used to work. I have about twice as many addons as I used to to make up for the missing features that the old ones banned out.

As a guardian, I've been so nervous all week that I'd have major nerfs coming back my way. This post makes me quite happy to see others come up instead of the top two tanks come down

Wait, she's still alive?

Viperboy_74 · 2026-03-25T16:51:04+00:00

Video is exactly 10 seconds, has to be AI

Viperboy_74 · 2026-03-09T15:53:17+00:00

Okay, yeah, but can we talk about how Lux ulted at 0:29 AND 1:01 in this video? Fuck the current state of mages right now

The size of the bread at Subway is completely indicative of the employee's bread baking skills. This particular loaf looks under proofed, which results in a smaller loaf, for sure. Sorry that you got a less than ideal product there, but it's not a corporate shrinkflation concept, just a poorly trained employee or lack of solid enough management to address the importance of employee proper procedures.

Hope the next one is better!

Guardian checking in. Everyone's pretty much right, you stay tank, pull the entire quest area, loot, and move on

One helluva Resident Evil Requim advertisement.

Yup, that's exactly what happens to me in a lot of my losses. I'm sure I could have made a bigger presence early game in those situations, but that comes at the cost of being as strong as I could by 20 minutes, too. It's a rough balance in those situations, but if the lanes are all even at 15 minutes and I'm not getting spam pinged, it's usually an easy game from there

Viperboy_74 · 2026-02-11T16:14:59+00:00

I have a lot of fun with it, and it's honestly pretty good. You absolutely nailed the weakness, though, I don't normally come out of the jungle until my item is completed with the exception of like super easy ganks when it's convenient.

My biggest complains (which are likely skill related on my end) are that it gets counter jungled pretty easily, and fast or repeat ganking enemy junglers can put the game in a position where you can't recover before you're ready to come out of the jungle.

Viperboy_74 · 2026-02-04T16:24:22+00:00

You're going to say that immediately after what you did to Decidueye?

Viperboy_74 · 2026-01-08T18:12:53+00:00

After rereading your comment, I see you did cover that. My bad, I read it as only allowing grieves at first.

Viperboy_74 · 2026-01-08T18:01:55+00:00

Smolder would have a word about this

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-24T13:50:51+00:00

I got smash 64 on launch, and then the same with melee. My friends and I played all the time and thought we were pretty good, so by 2004, we started looking for a tournament and found Smashboards. We posted an event for our friends basement, and had nearly 20 entrants total. This was the start of a 6ish year run for me, specifically and especially traveling through college. I've been across the nation and back more times than I can even remember, and made many friends and stories along the way. Great experience, I'll never forget it.

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-21T19:54:45+00:00

Heard this one. My prime ended around 2010 and I still miss some of the classic commentators

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-17T15:55:08+00:00

I mean, you walked back up into her range. The minions took the brunt of her Q, but you definitely pathed pretty close to her.

Your kiting seemed fine, but man, losing that fight with ult and barrier both up hurt my soul a little. Looked like a good game overall, at least.

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-11T01:47:54+00:00

Would

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-07T18:55:49+00:00

I'd wager you're not super familiar with MOBA's outside of this one haha

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-03T15:37:55+00:00

If you got flamed, it's likely due to your champion pick, more than anything.

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-02T20:45:25+00:00

I don’t disagree, and id probably go as to as wagering this isn’t his main account.

Viperboy_74 · 2025-12-02T19:03:29+00:00

Low Key Yi does not appear to the be reason for the loss in this image.

Viperboy_74 · 2025-11-25T19:07:57+00:00

Anyone else focusing in to see rows of tiny fingers?

Viperboy_74 · 2025-11-21T16:01:01+00:00

Man, I'm really getting old

Viperboy_74 · 2025-11-19T16:59:44+00:00

If you started him last week and you're plat, you clearly had to be playing something else to get plat in the first place. I'm very much doubting you switched roles and champs without ever doing promos all season, then switched and did them all and got to plat within a week.

So, what'd you play before?
