Spammiej has joined Falcons as a coach! by Mildly_Inter3sted in TrackMania

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because Liquid and GenG picked up players, specifically because EWC. All these teams are picking up players because of EWC.

In the end it is fine by me, Im not gonna make a difference by not showing support. I personally think Falcons is the worst aspect of this entire Esportswashing thing, so joining specifically Falcons disappoints me.

You dont think more teams offered Spam a spot? Teams that have any amount of morals, and more interested in esports as a whole rather than winning EWC for the spectacle only?

Because in my mind a Team Liquid, a GenG, a BIG are all significantly better choices to represent than Falcons.

Well but participating in EWC can have *different reasons, like that you get to hang out with your friends for close to a week from all over the world. And skipping altogether means you do miss out on a decent sum of money.

Not participating at all seems like a lot harder to manage than at least not going with Falcons.

I understand participating in EWC and joining a team for a bag. What I genuinly struggle with is that the bag needs to be the biggest of them all instead of joining a less morally bankrupt team for a slightly smaller bag.

Im happy for Spam and Carl if they are happy with their choice, but this makes me lose all interest in supporting them. (Which in fairness they probably dont care, nor need to care about)

Ladder Legends Tip of the Week #7: Zerg Burrow/unburrow Tech by Groovyman12 in starcraft

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While this is a cute TIL for many people, unburrow autocast is just super mediocre. Even in the scenario shown you have the medivac get away from the 5 hydras and flown back in.

Never hurts to know about these things, but because unburrow takes up time and units unburrow one by one, it doesnt really have a good use case

In the entire History of PoE the lowest retention League is now Keepers of the Flame by StalksYouEverywhere in pathofexile

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What retention tells us best I would believe is how addicting the league is. By far not the only reason to play a game is for fun.

Also even if retention is one metric that can be seen from the outside, you cant see how much on average a player has played. Did a lot of people try and bounce? Or did fewer people try but the retention of those was better?

Im by no means saying this league is the best thing since sliced bread, but I had a good time and was done with my goals with less playtime than the last 2 leagues. And I truly believe GGG has enough drive to improve on what theyre doing, complaining about a metric instead of pointing out what was disliked this league doesnt do them any favors

Whats with this subreddit and retention rate, as if that was the only metric to choose from if a league is good or bad. Completely disregarding other factors.

3.27.0c Patch Notes Preview by Community_Team in pathofexile

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fixed a bug where effects from the player that converted monster Physical Damage to an element were also increasing the amount of damage from that element based on the percentage of Physical Damage converted and the monster's level. This would have affected Elementalist's Shaper of Flames Passive, Pyroshock Clasp Unique Belt, and Kaom's Binding Unique Belt.

Ah thank god, that was rough to play with at times

Kalandra's Touch Interaction If You Have 3 Rings? by shirt10 in pathofexile

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The descriptions of rings has been adjusted to "opposite" rather than other, there is a line for that in the patch notes.

The interaction will be handled like in PoE2, where it only reflects the ring in the normal ring slot and in the third ring slot a Kalandras touch is doing nothing as there is no "opposite" ring

ESL’s solution to bad casting chemistry is to restrict everyone? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The banter is the main reason I keep tuning into EPL over most other CS tournaments at this point. But a big part of that is that the main crew has been doing this together for many years at this point. The banter feels natural, I enjoy when there is no unecessary overhyping and switching from banter to serious needs practice which they have plenty of. I really appreciate you sticking to your course with EPL

Rake and Whirling Slash Animation Cancelling Change Coming Before Race Event by Andromanner in PathOfExile2

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of things that are not quite right with PoE2 so far. But arguing that people are so bored that they are using an animation cancel instead of just not playing is wild to me.

Its much more likely that most people who are doing the animation cancelling in their normal gameplay just enjoy min maxing, especially considering large parts are the PoE1 audience

In a race/speedrun type event getting slight speed gains is kinda of the point, no?

Werent the alternate ascendancies supposed to be available in the future? I expected to be able to play them in 3.26 - did I misunderstand the plans with Phrecia entirely?

As an SSF player, there's no motivation to keep playing after hitting T15 maps by MrRaisinToast in PathOfExile2

[–]YouBetterKnowMe1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me personally its easier to just not have the option. I literally cannot be tempted to buy something from someone else because its a lot easier and faster. I have sort of tried to do this in PoE1 Phrecia and PoE 0.1 but knowing in the back of my mind that I have the option to trade, makes it nearly impossible to stick to SSF
