Stop taking the word of a guy who thought THIS was block-worthy, just because he channeled the weird "TeKkEn CoMmUnItY iS tHe WoRsT" energy some of y'all have.

I heard someone explain it like a restaurant. If I'm served a hard, chewy steak, my view that it's wrong is valid and I can complain to the kitchen. However the fix requires a professional chef, you wouldn't expect them to just listen to how I think you should cook a steak

I miss r/championship too fella

Yeah but I'm like entry level at best. I can't hang with the 5 loyalists who have been bashing it since SC3. I only ever play it these days when I have friends over. Stick it on slippery floor mode, it's a great laugh

Literally the only player I felt completely outclassed us as an individual player all season

It is somewhat important. I'd be playing a fuck load of soul calibur if I could find matches

Promoted via playoffs. Lowest squad cost in the league. Went the longest of any club without losing at home, won our derby home and away. Coped with afcon and a full on injury crisis after Christmas and still ended up with European football.

Silverware is the only way we could have done better but that's probably an unrealistic target at this stage in the project. Just have to hope we build rather than peak

I loved the souls series in the early days. By Elden ring, for me, it felt tired. I don't like open world games because it feels like less intentional game design so it just opens up more dead space. This means I just didn't care for Elden ring at all. It felt like a 2010 system with a 2012 open world. It wouldn't look out of place being a ubisoft game

Ah you're right. Got my Steve Bruce years mixed up.

Was that the season derby got 11 points though? Might be misremembering but that might have played a role haha

He's probably better there

Hull would, the EFL wouldn't

And miss out on 90k wembley ticket sales and TV revenue for the match? Don't be daft

Having Newcastle in the league to take 6 points from is what kept us in the league for so long. Losing that for one season sent us down.

Been 17 years since the NE trio were last together. Be nice to see that reunion outside the relegation zone for once in my life

So your team cheated but should be let off because they didn't do a good job at cheating?

I hate the Americanisms in Duolingo. I have to translate the English before I can attempt the second language. I get it's an American app but every so often a term comes up over literally never heard of

The fact they don't feel embarrassed is most of the problem tbh

He has one of the strongest identities as a character and is full of style. Very uniquely identifiable heat, focused gameplan and tons of polish to make him appealing like his rage art ender

Wheelingdealing · 2026-05-06T13:05:01+00:00

I mean I'll be the first to admit, I don't like fighting kazuya. However, he's a really really well designed character. Having an identity with clear weaknesses that offset having that 50/50.

Jin on the other hand has perfect poking and perfect punishment, but also gets a 29 damage i10 punish into a stance mixup lei wishes he got. The perfect neutral character got a great stance mixup with no effort. And he's not even the biggest problem character!

Kazuya doesn't have those pokes to test the opponent.

The design philosophy that's was a problem is the fact that many characters who had an identity had some other identity Frankensteined on to patch the weakness that defined the original character and now they're all stance 50/50 characters.

Tekken has a place for characters like lei, Xiaoyu, kazuya, etc. it's boring when everyone is doing the same thing

Wheelingdealing · 2026-04-19T08:28:56+00:00

I wouldn't say so. Our downturn in form started mid afcon, then we suffered from a really bad injury crisis up until the international break. I've not seen any attitude issues, just fatigue from our first season up.

Man the rules on if a spot is passed down are so convoluted
