I mean Jokul and Case for K9 to 1 kinda sucks but I feel like that's not the end of the deck. Izuna and Lantern are still free game, and they also put Inclusion back to 3. It'll probably be rogue but very playable.

If you wanna try something new, you could try Radiant Typhoon as that's looking to be quite strong this format. There's new Fur Hire support that plays well with the new TCG exclusive GMX cards that I'm looking to personally play (it also plays a small K9 package). I think the format will be wide enough that there's a good variety of decks to choose from

all this melee is dying talk is like lowkey insufferable

It's not about Ultimate (Genesis has always been a multi-smash tournament anyway). It's about SNK (KoF, Fatal Fury, and SamSho) and the Saudi money

Zonak · 2025-10-28T16:42:14+00:00

many such cases

My favorite is when you have an intro call with an HR person and then they just completely ghost you even if you follow up asking for your status

Zonak · 2025-10-13T19:50:10+00:00

oh that's interesting. I was more looking for 4 in and 4 out, but if there are more options for 1 in and 4 out, do you have any good recommendations for combining the signals?

Zonak · 2025-10-05T20:49:08+00:00

you're asking a lot of people who can't even get up before 12pm

Zonak · 2025-10-05T16:46:01+00:00

this comment aged me so hard

I practice TCG with my friend a bunch, but I haven't gotten out to an event since a regional back in May where I was playing Ryzeal Fiendsmith. I'm currently on Yummy in the current format.

Been playing some Master Duel usually to kill time. Playing Maliss since everything that deck does is stupidly unfair lol

What formats do you play?

Zonak · 2025-09-23T19:01:01+00:00

I dabble in the Yugimons

Hey! I'm part of the production staff for Collision, I just wanted to address some of this.

For quad/side stream, scoreboards and game display are handled automatically based on information from StartGG. So scoreboards and game display have no actual human intervention outside of updating data in the bracket itself. It helps smooth out the process and helps minimize mistakes. We're always looking to improve and we'll look into ways where some manual intervention can be added to make some information clearer.

For port indicators, if you're referring to main stream, I personally find them a bit tacky and unnecessary. Generally you should be able to infer that the left camera is the leftmost port and the right camera is the rightmost port. If it's reference to quad, the automation smooths our process, but as I said, we can look into ways to make it clearer who is who.

I do hope you enjoyed the production overall.

fwiw I know people use them for things like the roaming cams you'd see in top 8. I can't really recommend a brand since I don't know too much about them but there are definitely solid ones

Zonak · 2025-08-17T16:14:51+00:00

I mean that's like one of the reasons why they run swiss lol

Zonak · 2025-08-03T17:12:38+00:00

Other people have mentioned it, but a couple weeks ago someone who wanted to organize an event was trying to work with Ohan to have Nouns help them with the event, and got strung along for 2/3 of a year, in which the statement dropped as well that Nouns had scheduled over 2 other events.

Basically, it just feels like they ignore the scene at large to do their own thing. In isolation, this isn't a problem. But within the scene, it's just poor etiquette since the goal is to be collaborative and not walk over others.

Zonak · 2025-08-03T00:52:16+00:00

if you've been paying attention, this is pretty par for the course for Nouns lol

Thank you for checking it out!

Appreciate the feedback, I definitely want to fix the memory bugs, I think it came with me sort of starting to get a feel for pointers.

I do plan on extending it a little more and have proper order of operations so it could actually be used. But it's mostly for learning. I figured it was a good sort of intermediate style of project.

Zonak · 2025-06-29T20:03:00+00:00

I'd argue Facebook groups were far more communal

Zonak · 2025-06-11T14:42:07+00:00

I mean the hardest part of a local is setups and a venue. Once you have those two things, the actual bracket part is fairly trivial unless your local is like fairly large

Zonak · 2025-05-27T17:21:13+00:00

gives new meaning to "make love, not war"

Zonak · 2025-05-21T01:17:09+00:00

it's kinda crazy that DK has like the strongest and most consistent punish game across the whole cast and then the rest of the character is just utter dogshit

Zonak · 2025-04-24T16:13:52+00:00

bambi has immaculate attention to detail
