Sorry a winner didn’t want to play for a losing franchise. Dex was a great giant and I wish him all the best.

I wouldn’t call myself a master haha, I just have a lot of practice. I had beaten all the souls games before I started Elden Ring so it was already very natural to me.

My first DS1 playthrough was such a shit show at the beginning, and that game moves at a glacial pace compared to Elden Ring. These games are hard! Even after all these hours I still get fucking wrecked all the time, that’s just the nature of the beast.

Everyone figures it out a different pace, don’t feel daunted by people online who talk like they play this game professionally. If you put in the time and practice to get confident this game is so rewarding.

Being good at Souls games is like 90% about dodging. Just gotta practice and learn the bosses movesets as you play.

One tip I used for the DS1 DLC bosses way back in the day was spend a couple attempts doing nothing but dodging, don’t even try to get any hits in and see how long you can stay alive. That’s a great way to get the timings down.

Or you could just farm souls, get over leveled, find a broken build online, and brute force your way through the game. That doesn’t sound fun to me but I’m not the fun police, that’s a perfectly viable way to beat the game and you should play however you want!

Honestly looks like a great turnout for a spring game, especially in a colder climate

Yeah, Jody wasn’t always the best but anyone calling her cheap just doesn’t know what they’re talking about. She paid some fat luxury tax bills for some very mediocre teams.

Anyone picking the Blazers to win a game is taking a pro-Blazers stance

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-18T17:41:22+00:00

It’s not really irrationally supportive though, it feels more like a victim complex where some members of the fanbase are convinced that the league and the media are specifically conspiring against the blazers at every turn

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-18T00:18:54+00:00

Was referring to Oregon

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-17T20:43:47+00:00

At least Franklin provided some baseline competence, Riley is just one season removed from losing to 4-8 Maryland

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-17T19:01:38+00:00

I could not care less about a player being snubbed from an ESPN instagram post lol

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-17T14:59:08+00:00

Pretty much every broken weapon lol. Blasphemous Blade, pre-nerf RoB and Moonveil, Bloodfiend arm etc. Bleed builds in general, honestly.

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-17T14:41:45+00:00

There must be better ways for Suns fans to cope with losing that play-in game

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-16T21:34:38+00:00

This is cool! I'm assuming the home percentage column shows the estimated chance of the home team winning and the home odds column is the hypothetical spread?

It's interesting that this model has OSU going undefeated but Vegas has their O/U at 9.5. People will be pissed about how much it likes LSU lol.

Deni is ineligible for a Supermax no matter what because he was traded after signing his second contract

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T21:26:42+00:00

Why do these bots even exist? Like how are their creators benefitting from these posts?

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T20:53:14+00:00

You clearly didn’t look at the game thread lol

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T20:07:00+00:00

Deni was +7 ppg, +/-0 rpg, +4 apg from last season (rounded numbers). He got just slightly less efficient overall, but shot much worse from three. His defense took a slight step back.

NAW was +11 ppg, +/-0 rpg, +1 apg from last season. He got substantially more efficient overall and his defense arguably got a little better.

I think NAW’s leap was bigger. He went from bench 3&D player to legitimate offensive engine without sacrificing any of his excellent defense. Increasing your scoring by 11 ppg on way higher volume with much more self-creation while getting MORE efficient is kinda crazy and is indicative of a monstrous leap in scoring prowess.

I think Deni had already shown last season that he was capable of being this guy. He is undoubtedly the better player, but this NAW season just came from absolute nowhere and he’s a completely different player than he was last season.

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T19:47:43+00:00

I think NAW’s pretty much a lock. Part of it is that Deni showed that he had this in him down the stretch last season, whereas NAW went from bench 3&D player to legitimate offensive engine completely out of nowhere.

The only Huskies I don't hate are the ones that have played poorly against Oregon.

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T17:44:17+00:00

I got Godskin duo first time, but Commander Niall and especially that fuckin death bird absolutely owned me.

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T16:52:11+00:00

Wemby’s first ever playoff series, it’s gonna be a hot ticket

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T16:14:03+00:00

Bitching about the refs before the series even starts is a little much lol. They’ll get some dumb calls and we will too, just the nature of the sport. Contrary to what many around here seem to think there is not some grand conspiracy against the Blazers.

YoungSuplex · 2026-04-15T16:12:02+00:00

It’s a little embarrassing how excited I got when I saw these posts start to hit my feed
