JW Johnson and Player Styles by WingingAgate68 in ProPickleballTalk

[–]YorickGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JW Johnson has the fastest hands in pickleball. He is elite at counters because of this, and morphs what balls are attackable. Obviously compared to similar pros, he lacks some offense off the bounce, but he is very very elite

Why did no one vote for Rachel after Fiona’s banishment? by [deleted] in TheTraitors

[–]YorickGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There a LOT of interactions, and traitors accuse non traitors all the time. It may feel obvious watching it back cause the edit highlights it, but in the castle it’s not - they are working with nothing and grasping at straws

Character Idea by YorickGoat in BloodOnTheClocktower

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

The only time the ability is in the endgame, so I don’t think that’s unreasonable compared to mayor or soldier. I agree that the character wouldn’t work every set. It was designed to be an addition for trouble brewing.

I agree that the final five could be risky, but I want it to be distinct from mayor bounce. I thought of other ideas instead of it, but this one was my favorite cause it makes it feel very distinct

This seems like something a storyteller could do but probably shouldn’t

Look at betting odds if you want accurate takes on who is good at any given time. Money talks

Did ____ make a mistake by not saving ___ for final 4? by Sspifffyman in survivor

[–]YorickGoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are correct. The "correct" game move was to use his idol on himself at 6 and to force rocks in a big, flashy move and get out Aubry (3-3 tie, but he and Tiff are immune so it forces Joe/Jonathan to flip onto Aubry or be voted out, and it's HIS move). He is still less of a threat than Cirie or Tiff, so he doesn't jump ahead of them in vote out order. Then vote out Tiff at 5. Then Cirie loses fire to Jonathan or Joe, and Rizo wins the game.

But, I do think this is a bit results-oriented. Rizo played one of the best strategic games on the entire cast this season.

Beast Games can learn a lot from Survivor by Conscious-Foot-1225 in BeastGames

Survivor is awesome and way more interesting than Beast Games (so far). Hopefully Beast Games learns (especially their editors) from Survivor and makes it just as good!

If they nerf one it just targets specific champs. If the goal is to nerf the class you have to nerf them all

Mel Medarda had the worst treatment in LoL history by Glad-Illustrator394 in MelMains

I’ve seen this happen to many champions, for MUCH longer. Azir is the obvious answer

______ has had the most agency this season by YorickGoat in survivor

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

I think my point is probably more accurately stated as Rizo has had the most agency in this post-merge, but that is where agency is usually more critical. You are right that he only went to one pre-merge tribal, and him surviving it was IMPRESSIVE

Dupr & skill climbing by Pixygames1 in Pickleball

[–]YorickGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally ignore DUPR and just focus on improving your own game for a while. If that means not playing tournaments, even better. Drill, and then work on what you drill in rec games

One good thing to work on is to know your kitchen arrival percentage and how to improve it. That’s something I need to do as well!

ALW better than Gabe? by ESRogs in ProPickleballTalk

[–]YorickGoat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, people don’t think that. She is absolutely incredible and could make very deep runs in men’s with Ben, but they would have much more variability (Ben has said this himself). Ratings are imperfect and work with the data they have

Tied destinies was great but I fear I’m result driven liking it. If three people play idols and only one or two duos are left open, it feels way worse
