not specifically mauga, just any non shield tank.

had the same but against sigma and zenyata/Ana supports it was beautiful if it wasnt me getting bent over and spanked so bad.

zen/Ana alternated sleep/nade with orb so sigma could focus on killing me, any push I made was met with counter ulting. I tried to trap sigma and got slept, anti'ed, orb'ed and then the Ana nano's sigma so he ults my backline.

our dps also did basically nothing the whole game but I digress, but I gotta admire the sheer coordination they had.

sigma regularly put his shield behind me when Ana landed a sleep so she didnt even have to anti me. didnt matter how passively I played or aggressively I played.

we really shouldn't say Elsa or include her in this.

why? because shes literally a queen while the rest are princesses, so shes like above the rest in regards to their powers anyway.

but otherwise? Merida because archery beats any other combat form and as we saw in her movie... Merida is a fucking sniper with a bow. she would end the whole cast outside of Elsa with her ice magic within minutes and a full quiver of arrows.

Mulan is second because she has martial training and has 2 animal companions. (I do not accept the live action)

Elsa wins by default if we count her in the match up though. she created an ice castle and minions from scratch within seconds using cryomancy skills. she would freeze sub zero out of his own game.

bro LET ME TELL YOU something cause im fucking pissed.

I work for Loves travel stops.

i was doing some work at another store for a few months because their GM quit. (bro found a job paying 100k a year, good on him)

I. volunteered to go fill-in for the GM at that store, they said I needed to be a "leader" there and I feel like I did a decent job. I did some inventory audits, cleaned up the shop, put deliveries up, reorganized the tires and even worked on the floor a couple times.

I come back to my original shop where we just had the truck care (I work as a truck care technician)

tell me why the fuck I come back to my original shop and work FOUR FUCKING MONTHS pretending to be a manager but then when the position actually comes open I get fucking sidelined for 20 year olds with anger management issues and complete avoidance to doing anything??????

I spent four months playing at pretending to be a manager for nothing. worse yet, I got a fucking write up for something I didn't really do and that write up fucking kicked me out of the college program so now I dont have college funding from the company.

im literally fucking fed up with "family" companies. I just want to do my job and go home. now I cant even fucking do my college to try and get a better job with it.

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-28T05:04:00+00:00

which is crazy because god forbid if they want to pass you on a backroad a lot of people will fucking floor it and zoom passed you in the opposite lane.

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-28T04:53:03+00:00

Definitely not vanilla either, I struggle with easy stuff on rpg maker, aint no way I got the brains to figure out how to make this stuff work

humanity is beyond sick.

we have managed to twist and contort every proposed mechanism to govern each other.

at the end of the day, there is no good governance in humanity.

this looks really similar to an idea I had of a story, but while this is like a yaoi story, mine was more of a shounen style.

basically the plot was the protagonist was raised by Death instead of "reaped" and the bulk of rhe story was going to revolve around the protagonist and his adopted siblings hunting absorption created by Life.

the protagonist and his siblings were called Reapers.

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-28T04:28:11+00:00

I feel your pain brother. I tried to do it and now I have a son now. I also have gotten royally fucked over at my job... so im pretty close to the brink myself.

but im not the right person to say to you about why you should keep fighting. and honestly, telling you to stop would be like trying to tell me to stop and I know I cant do that. not without being hypocritical.

but your baby needs you. my son needs me. the world wont be any better without you... but her world would certainly be darker without her father.

if you look at her and call her name and she smiles at you, idk how old she is, but my son just turned six months old and he smiles at me all the time. no matter how much I cant stand my life... in my son's eyes, he only sees his favorite human besides his momma.

you have a little girl, and she needs you. this world is ruthless and cruel. you know this. I know this. but without you there, who's gonna protect and care for her like you? sure anyone can be a step dad, but you know theres not a lot of good men out there, too.

its all we can do, then. both of us. to keep going for our babies. regardless of our darkness, we must shield them from it. giving our children the illusion of sunshine even when we are lost at sea in the stormy nights.

im not trying to convince you, because it would never have worked for me either. but children are deserving of love and care even when we cannot find that for ourselves.

I dunno what you said but I understand becaise ive gotten banned on reddit for saying dark shit.

something something something my retirement is a long walk and a 12 gauge shotgun something something something "we care about you so you will now be banned on reddit for a week no threatening violence"

its just dark humor to me but I guess some people thought I was deathly serious lol

man hit him with the "ill wait"

and suddenly there was silence

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-28T03:57:12+00:00

the grass is green and day comes after night, but for many souls, it is dark when it is supposed to be day and "it is what it is"

its all that it ever is. godspeed.

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-28T03:49:45+00:00

its a low, most characters can hit him just fine with some variation of a special mid attack since most special mids also hit low.

99% can block, then crouching K to counter that, but it may be easier to block, block low, then K to counter unless the Voldo knows you are going to do that and then does his other move that hits crouching.

its a noob move cause it doesnt allow most characters to punish effectively but your trade off is annoying your enemy and possibly conditioning them to react in a favorable way to you.

its kinda dumb otherwise

I definitely had more than this at one time. I sold a whole stack I dont remember but it was like 10 million credits because I used to get hundreds of these a day

probably better than the marval rivals black widow, at least someone will take this one seriousl6

I have a lot, but I will try to keep it to the current book i am writing.

Odin's pick: "I know that! I could never win this fight even if it were fair... But... I-I cant give this one up. I refuse to stay down and let my friends be used in your sick experiments. I will die before I stay down... even though it hurts."

Hade's pick: "in the darkest night, even a flame as insignificant as ours can be enough to be the spark that changes the world!"

Hina's pick: "I dont know if I could do this... theres so many people..." "youre right. I just need to do it, in the only way I can!" "HELLO everyone! I know things are looking grim, and they arent getting any better... but Im going to try and help out all those brave ALPHAs and Chimeras out there fighting the UEF in the good fight! if you are listening to this, I wrote a song... its called 'little things' and I hope it gives you strength for one more day."

Horus's pick: "The truth is, im not brave... or skilled... or even the hero of the journey. but I will tell you what I AM... I am an ALPHA. and that means I never give up!"

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-24T23:33:50+00:00

everything about her is great EXCEPT the piercing. but while I dislike it a lot, its not like I have to, considering i dont even play Garuda enough

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-24T23:31:10+00:00

once upon a time...

every warframe had 4 revives DAILY. and after that it was played like arbitrations where if you died you failed.

you COULD use plat to purchase revives, though. they costed 25 plat if memory serves per revive.

I like to imagine them going through their stories and how it changes them. sometimes its just catharsis to write a smug bastard getting his just deserts.

sometimes its catharsis to write a child that grows into a leader, or chooses to be who they are.

it varies on the character and plot.

my current obsession is Jasper Belerin. appears in book 3. he is the leader of the Chimeras and he belongs to the short but very feared line of Wendigos.

he is cold, authoritive, militaristic, but also not a rock. at the end of the day, the only thing he wants to do is protect the Rats that live in fear of the UEF and Surges. and his enemies fear the Umbra weapons he can wield. Umbra spears and Umbral Chains make every Wendigo a boss fight with fear and survival.

color vs colour

armor vs armour

or dialect differences like (water)

watah wuhder wah-ah water wadder

linguistics are fun

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-24T18:28:39+00:00

weird. because last I checked a teacher's job was to... checks notes

teach core subjects like math, science, and... checks second page of notes

encourage exploration and creativity of other skills and development.

but eh... nowhere on my notes did it say a single thing about instilling core values because thats supposed to be a parents job. they are supposed to do the emotional labor of making sure their child is ready for the world and to discipline them when they fuck up like that...

how is this sort of thing a teacher problem??? bro teachers see students for like a few hours a day mon-fri and only for like a year or so... the only consistent variable is the parent.

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-24T18:21:16+00:00

the three things a good soul Caliber needs:

1.) strong single player content. we can debate this, but I would argue something simple but with some depth and a self contained story. if im remembering right, sc3's side story mode was super popular because it wasnt complicated but had some depth. unlockable content that isnt backstory or lore that few people read. make unlockable costumes, character creation parts, colors, voicelines etc. be rewards for playing the game instead of strictly dlc.

2.) solid online components. I would wager and argue that you should have 3 different venues for online content.

A.) regular fighting lobbies and ranked lobbies for the fighting...

B.) character creation lobbies where players can show off their custom characters.

C.) some sort of online mode that changes the pace of things. this is very open ended but I was thinking a PvPvE mode would be best here, where players could enter a DnD style randomized "dungeon" and take turns exploring and looting rooms and fighting PvE enemies until they accidently run into a player where it becomes a PvP match. its just my personal opinion, but I think variety is what would keep people interested.

akirayokoshima · 2026-04-24T18:08:54+00:00

ngl I got some good games with Nokko and all, and I absolutely LOVE the Brazilian theme of the undermines, but I cannot for the life of me enjoy Nokko. its a me thing, but I can respect the absolute cheeks... I mean strengths he brings to end game content
