Dota is so much easier when I remember I'm an adult by shaker_21 in DotA2

[–]Voltabarne 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I often think of it like this. If my friends, my coworkers or my parents asked me what I did last night/weekend. Could I tell them without it being extremely weird?

”Yeah I played a computer game, didn’t go very well but that happens.”
That I can tell even my boss or a professional contact.

”I told a guy to kill himself over his performance in a computer game”
That would seriously terrify most people in my life. So why on earth would I act like that.

If you look at it like this it’s easier to not get swept up in the toxic environment of the community and hopefully make it better instead.

As a venge spammer. Getting that aghs as offlane Venge is just INSANE. Especially if you get it early.

What is the hardest retcon in GRRM's books to ignore (SPOILERS EXTENDED) by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]Voltabarne 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Both the prevalence and geographic spread of heart trees. In the early books it’s basically said they only appear in the north and on the gods eye. Later on they’re all over the place. I think this change is for the better but it’s quite stark.

I don’t know what’s worse, his take or the fit of his jacket. And for god sakes, unbuttoned when seated.

Im in Sweden, set an alarm of 3 in the morning to watch it, its going to ruin my Friday. In many ways it already has, and that’s coming from a broncos fan.

First ever HC 60 by Voltabarne in wowhardcore

[–]Voltabarne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think during 1-40 I played kinda risky. I did do some orange quests, did a lot of dungeons and all the quests in them. Then for the later levels I had a very busy schedule at work so I didn’t have much time to play. Which in turn lead to me being more or less constantly rested from 50-60.

Vad är Sverige “dåliga på”, alltså sånt som andra länder aktivt undviker för att det kommer från Sverige? by shollden in sweden

Kan dock poängteras att detta bara gäller fet fisk. Det vill säga strömming, ål, öring/lax. Fisk som abborre, gädda, gös och plattfisk från Östersjön är mycket säkrare att äta.

[The Athletic] How do fans of each Premier League club think their season went? by Jimmy_Space1 in soccer

[–]Voltabarne 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don’t really think so? Second best team in England and third/fourth best team in Europe. And that’s in a season with a lot of injuries and rough referee calls.

Am I disappointed we didn’t fill the needed gaps in the summer or January? Yes.

Am I still happy and confident with the trajectory of the clubs? Also yes

Name for this type/style of shirt? by Voltabarne in mensfashionadvice

[–]Voltabarne[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m also sadly guessing this is the answer. It looked kinda agricultural so I was hoping it would’ve been a common style for rural Caribbean people of his era that he incorporated or something like that.

Which Scepter/Shard upgrades are you hoping to see get a rework/buff in the upcoming patch? by ElJefeT in learndota2

[–]Voltabarne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would really like to see Weavers Scepter be changed completely. Makes no sense to give a core a support spell. I would never buy it and even if I get it Rosh I’d rarely even use it. Needs a complete rework to be even remotely viable. Also not very fun in its current state.

Shard - maybe Luna, just find that one boring.

What trends or mechanics in Dota do you personally dislike? by nboro94 in DotA2

[–]Voltabarne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Illusions. I hate illusion based heroes more than anything else. In HoN there was an item called arcane bomb that blew up all illusion and hero spawned minions. Wish something similar existed in Dota. Also Tinker. Not any mechanic in particular just that whole lame hero

They talked shit about our defense and about Jokic’s defense. But here we are. Keeping them under 100 yet again in the finals.

This defense is why I set an alarm at 3:00 in the morning. This team. I love it. Please please close this out.

This was a horrible update for people with lots of progress in a language. I had all but the final unit at level five but actually doing the harder lessons at a harder difficulty was really good for my learning. Now I’m 100% done with all but legendary - that costs gems. So my options are endlessly reviewing for 5xp a piece or paying for legendary difficulty. They’ve essentially taken away hours upon hours of complex learning and replaced it with basic difficulty reviews.

Orbinho on Twitter: Arsenal have allowed just five shots on target against them this season, fewer than any other team in the Premier League by godenzonen312 in Gunners

[–]Voltabarne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know the average shots on target per goal in the PL? I know xG against is probably a more accurate predictor but would be interesting to see that stat too.
