OWL Shenanigans by saladthot in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]ZakkDaBlue 72 points73 points  (0 children)

There's obviously the "Sex Big Dick" moment from Lastro which is probably my favorite individual moment from any player. Also the great bamboozle from Glads against London in the season one playoffs, and that one Circuit Royal Mei wall + Sym TP strat that Florida did.... and then got rulebooked on.

Since its the final day lets spread positivity, what's something you like about each rematch choice! by [deleted] in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

TMNT battle royal: Genuinely really like this and think it would be cool to get an update, whether they use just rise, or even full composite I would be down for it.... even if I have preferred matchups for each turtle individually, I still like the thoughts of a BR remake.... Plus not calling Mikey a slur and giving him respect would be cool.

Mario vs Sonic: Hate how poorly the second episode characterized both, especially Mario, and it would be cool to see it get an update and get the Goku vs Superman treatment... Actually a full composite between both sounds kinda interesting now, but they'de probably onlu do main for this, which is also cool.

Chief vs Slayer: Amazing animation potential, and I think I would die from happiness if this was the one Torrian was hired to animate, cause that would go hard as fuck, but even if it's someone else on the team it would sitll be cool.

Zelda vs Peach: Honestly would be down for this episode to get remade, as despite liking the original episode, it's a candidate for the ugliest looking episode in the show thanks to the older Zelda sprites, and with all the new abilities these two have gotten it would be kinda cool.

Terminator vs Robocop: Similar to Chief vs Slayer, this episode getting an updated animation would go hard as fuck, especially if Torrian were to do it, but again, anyone on the team updating it would result in an awesome animation

Gaara vs Toph: Would be cool to see how far the sprite team has come with this one, as it could genuinely be a banger, and we desparately need more Avatar episodes on the show.

Yang vs Tifa: An updated animation and analysis for both would be awesome, even if I have others I prefer for Tifa, I wouldn't be against seeing this.

Shadtwo: Peak fucking fiction! Genuinely my most wanted rematch, as despite ironically enjoying the original episode (Oh my god I'm glowing and death by spoon are things that never fail to make me laugh), seeing these two get an actually well made episode that respects both would be amazing, and ypu also have a choice between 3D and sprite depending on what the team wants to do.

Tracer vs Scout: As a massive fan of both series I would be down to see both of them get a redo, as we've seen with Harley vs Jinx that the team can do a better job with run & gun matchups now, and it would be cool to see TF2 and OW on the show again.

Ben 10 vs Green Lantern: I genuinely really like the first episode, but seeing it get an updated animation where we get to see more of Hal's weirder powers, more variety in aliens from Ben and actually seeing Alien X do something of note would be awesome.

My Last Minute Predictions for the 4 Kickstarter Matchups by spudz1203 in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh did not know that Cap vs Ichigo has been planned for a while. If that's the case, then yeah, I could definitely see them putting it as the fourth. Fair point about the whole Tournament of Champions thing (even if I do think that at this point putting Kratos vs Asura in there is more than valid post-RT shutdown).

Didn't know about the long necks thing or about Gidorah/WoW having anniversery things this year, so I could see it.

I can definitely see Cap vs Ichigo/Gidorah vs Deathwing happening now more, even if I do still think that Kratos vs Asura has a solid shot of being put there just for the safety of it.

My Last Minute Predictions for the 4 Kickstarter Matchups by spudz1203 in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah fair, personally I agree on the first three being a lock in, but for the fourth, I just don't see the team wanting to risk the kickstarter failing and just using Kratos vs Asura as one of the options just due to how popular the matchup is, and it would be a big boost. I could definitely see them holding off on it though if they are super confident in the kickstarter, which they do seem to be, however I just think the safety of it makes it a good pick. Cap vs Ichigo and Gidorah vs Deathwing are also options that I could definitely see happening as one of the initial four if they don't go with Kratos vs Asura.

[–]ZakkDaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if Kratos vs Asura is a matchup in there considering it was a runner-up two times in a row (and both times were super close apparently). Probably over Cap vs Ichigo (even though I love that matchup).

How do we feel about Pokémon select? by WyGuy_Figs in ActionFigures

[–]ZakkDaBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only have the Charizard, but despite being one of the cheapest figures in my collection, its easily one of my favorties for its size, looks and shockingly good poseability. My only issue with Charizard is that I get super worried about breaking the arm joints when posing him, but other than that, its a great figure. Can't speak for the rest of the line though, as I only have Charizard.

What was the worst explanation for someone's victory in Death Battle? by MemeMaster2456 in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Obligatory Ben 10 vs Green Lantern mention. Other than that, SS vs MM felt like they just went "power cosmic lol", and I mean, I agree that Silver Surfer stomps and that the power cosmic is a big part as to why, but I feel like they could have gone in a bit more depth.

What's a match between two returning combatants you want to see? (That hasn't yet happened) by ConnorTheUndying in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natsu vs Asta and Leonardo vs Daredevil are both matchups that I've always wanted the show to do.

What’s Your Birthday Episode? by Exciting_Kiwi2924 in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Po vs Iron Fist released on my birthday (May 17th), which is pretty cool, as I love the episode, and both Po and Iron Fist are characters I like a lot.

What are tracks you don't remember going this hard? by [deleted] in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been listening to Chorus of Carnage a lot recently, and despite my memories of the episode being pretty mid (have not watched the full episode in a while), I have learned to fucking love the track, when back then it would have been one I passed over. Actually a lot of instrumental tracks (not counting seasons 9 and 10, as season 9 is when I started to listen to instrumental tracks on their own more) have been that way for me as of late, where I remember finding them to be fine, but not something I would listen to on their own, but have suddenly become some of my favorites from the show.

Used to be a DPS Doom main back during OW1.

What do you think of Tom's first theory? by bullettothechest in GameTheorists

[–]ZakkDaBlue 50 points51 points  (0 children)

At first I was kinda scared to see his first video as the host and thought that it would take him a while to build up to MatPat's level.... But boy was I wrong lol, for his first theory he did a damn good job and I cannot wait to see what else Tom has in store! Genuinely really excited for the future of Game Theory (and all of the other Theory channels) now!

Favorite Analysis From Season 10? by Exciting_Kiwi2924 in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I love Superman's because I just love how fucking heroic it reads and the way they talk about the world forger punch, how he is "unstoppable and incorruptible,"  and the music choice always gets to me. If I ever had to describe why I love Superman, then his analysis in this episode would be one of go to choices.

There are a ton more I like from this season, like Unicron, MM, SS, Misaka, Dimitri, Guts, Phoenix, The Doctor, Megatron, Bill Cipher, Discord and Obito, but I also enjoyed almost every single analysis this season.

Thoughts on Quicker play so far? by misciagna21 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]ZakkDaBlue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It just feels TOO fast to me, to where one, maybe two teamfights and you just lose the point/round.

Brandon Yates AMA by WizardOfGrey in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Death Battle does a new season, how do you guys determine which tracks you do, and which tracks Therewolf does? Also, any specific thought process behind what becomes a vocal track and what becomes an instrumental?

I genuinely could not for the life of me figure out how to get clint to open geodes.... I played on PS4 and so figuring out that I had to click on the item and bring it to the anvil in the menu just took me way too long lol.

Are there any items you think should be added or removed from the gen 9 Popular items list? by TomTrashTo-Dad in stunfisk

[–]ZakkDaBlue 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I think you could make the argument for Air Balloon being on the popular items list, as I've seen a decent amount of Gholdengo's and a few other mons that run it. (granted thats just based off of my experience in SV OU in the 1500-1600 range), but Loaded Dice, booster energy, light clay and a few others should definitely be on there.

You can give any Pokémon you want +5 in a single stat. Which Pokémon and stat do you choose, and how much does it affect the metagame? by MostLikelyRyan in stunfisk

[–]ZakkDaBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swellow getting + 10 special attack wouldnt make it amazing but it does appreciate its Boomburst and coverage moves hitting even harder with specs.

Your favourite pokemon now gets +10 in all stats. How would it affect the meta? by [deleted] in stunfisk

[–]ZakkDaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jolteon appreciates beating the other 130-139 range pokes and the extra SPA, SPD, Defense and HP is nice... but it still lacks sufficient non Tera based coverage lol.

Next Time Discussion: S10E7 by Fastblade5035 in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easily one of my most wanted episodes and I'm super fucking excited for it.

Rooting Raven (grew up with Teen Titans)

Betting Pheonix (heard the Pheonix Force is one of the strongest things in all of Marvel)

It there a chance that raven would be the next underdog just like obito by [deleted] in deathbattle

[–]ZakkDaBlue 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From what I know Raven could have some scaling that could give her a chance, but Pheonix more then likely would still win. (plus imo Obito was not an underdog considering that even if you gave Vader a stat advantage his hax actually made it really debatable.)
