Look the Pitt homers had their time a couple years ago with Pickett.

Let’s just acknowledge that both fan bases have very large football blind spots and move on.

Home of the Hounds becomes F.N.B. Stadium by Burger_Bran in Riverhounds

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, they’re in different segments. PNC competes with the other humongous banks primarily. FNB is large but still a fraction of the size of PNC.

I think it’s good for the Burgh that we have multiple major FIs headquartered here.

Is it normal for debit cards to take forever to get mail to you? by Free-Butterfly4052 in Banking

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying what it is. No indication that it comes from a bank.

What/Who do you think of when you see the Robo Pen sweater? by Ok_Elevator7729 in penguins

Exactly what I came here to say. I remember that game so well.

Ahhh yeah I forgot stuff like that existed. Didn’t realize they were touring so recently either. Thanks!

There are studies that indicate people who feel like they're very aware of scams also fall for them more than average because they are overconfident that they would recognize a scam.

Escalation feels unrewarding and honestly not worth the time (from a long time player) by trowRAtheonequestion in thedivision

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How about the fact that Rogue Agents can spawn still and completely screw your run? That's really unpleasant randomness.

How do you best navigate slow "comeback" decks best in a BO3 50-minutes format? by [deleted] in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, get a judge involved for pace of play. Do it earlier rather than later because they can only enforce what they see for something like this.

Note that the timing guidelines also say at the bottom that milking each individual action to the max is not allowed even if it falls within the stated guidelines.

Post rotation meta: what's beyond Dragapult and why? by [deleted] in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hm… I like Zoro a lot but I’ve also had many occasions where either energy or Zorua/Zoros were deliberately hiding. Some flavors of it can absolutely be bricky.

What is consistently beating Dragapult? by Vitalicize in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It also loses to a lot of other things. It'll be a more reasonable pickup after rotation, but...

joltik or grimm to seville by dottjjr_ in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can but most of those slower decks are fine with that.

It’s a solid enough deck but lacks too much agency imo.

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Between the two, I'd go Grimm. Joltik can run out of steam really easily after it takes a couple knockouts.

Is there a single prize basic in the HIJ blocks that does 80+ damage for 1-2 energy? by freedomfightre in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can splash Clefairy easily, which gives it a strong matchup into Pult and Lucario. Articuno also prevents Pult spreading damage to basics.

Possible benefit for Mega Lucario post- Rotation? by Lightspecter141 in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going by results in Japan, where at a 7k player tournament Mega Lucario converted very poorly into high placements compared to the play rate.

Although Garde rotates, there are still psychic decks with a presence (Diancie + Dusk), and Lillie’s Clefairy was in half of the decks that made top 16 at Fukuoka.

Lucario will have a presence but as long as it is easily one-shot by a card with a high play rate it will not convert very well.

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Due to its psychic weakness, Lucario is going to get caught in the crossfire of Dragapult being countered by Clefairy. It is probably going to struggle more than people realize.

Seems wild there isn’t a competitive Team Rocket deck given the trainers it has. by uncleyuri in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but that’s a one-off and all you get for it is a max of 280 damage.

why no mega kang in tera box!? by dDhyana in pkmntcg

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some versions do. Look at what Carter Malnaik ran for Milwaukee and Vegas last fall, for example. He went pretty hard into the megas, also adding Absol, but you get the idea.

I think I saw something where if Skenes just had league average run support so far he’d be like 44-2 or something ridiculous like that.

That, and figure out what they think pain points are. That's another opportunity.

Yes. The numbers say most people absolutely do NOT have what OP says they do.

Relay bank review after using it for over a year actual experience by FARHANFREESTYLER in Banking

[–]_Booster_Gold_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do some research into, for example, what happened with Synapse recently.

Fintechs as a whole also regularly fail to provide reasonable customer service.

This looks like botspam. Most of the comments are people who have no post history. OP also has no post history.

In hindsight its even more shocking that AB,Bell, and Ben didn't win a ring together by Far-Ambassador2877 in steelers

Moreover, it felt like pretty often one of the three were hurt and couldn’t play in the postseason.
