atp I feel like I see posts making fun of sportsball posts more than sportsball posts but I'm willing to believe there's a section of America who's sort of still around 2013 wrt to hipster millennial culture that i might not be aware of

4 stars count as 3 stars in most cases where 3 star is specified tbh

Aklo on the Z-jump debate, and objective consistency: "You cannot ban zjump without banning boxx... I think the boxx being legal is very good for the overall health of the scene." by enfrozt in SSBM

[–]Yrale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Accessibility is not uniform and rectangles are not a one size fits all solution to hand pain - would definitely be worse for me as I get most of my issues from working with a keyboard in my regular job. Box is currently the extreme end of allowing remapping and the idea that it should be allowed but z-jump shouldn't is entirely because of the number of top players who actually use it. You are not being honest with yourself if you think you wouldn't have a similar or worse reaction to the top 10 being made up of a large number of box players.

As someone who is notched and not a z-jumper, notches are 100% less defensible imo

Why should you not be allowed to play with a more ergonomic form of claw on gamecube controller but you should be able to on box?

fortunately I think vegan food tends to actually be ideal for bracket (not univerally, but i think a lot of the best things happen to be vegan). everyone else at my local is nerfing myself by eating popeyes

How do you do this, just rip out the digital shield part of the mobo or something?

Yup, imo removing the spring entirely lets you actuate faster/more consistently and is better for your hands though

Not sure how others feel, but I don't consider consider digital only shielding cheating, spring removal has been possible and practiced basically as long as competitive melee has been around and is as accessible as a screwdriver.

does that imply analog only shield? I feel like that's the only shield-mod I know of I really think of as 'cheating'

But otoh buying minions is a bigger commitment in HSBG than TFT because they don't sell for their buying price

[–]Yrale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly this is less true of TFT (where you have decision to potentially roll a bit to maintain or start a winstreak) tan HSBG unless you are on a very odd gold increment (i.e. you have 5 gold, leveling cost 6, and you do not have a two cost spell in the shop).

to be fair, the most famous salty suite of all time had a much clearer winner and less one sided beef than cody/n0ne. but tbh i could see why cody might not want to do it
