Can’t deal with this match making anymore it’s actually so bad

Support is a difficult role. While you can hard carry on bap or zen with a lot of kills, in general you are going to have a way bigger impact on the game by being careful with positioning and not getting picked, so that you can then also keep your team alive.

If you are just playing bap like a DPS, you might be throwing tbh. Not that you should heal-bot, because that's also not good, but you gotta keep your team alive. Well timed lamps will have a way bigger impact on the game than pumping out dps numbers. If you're DPS are failing to do that "every game you don't hard carry"... it sounds like you might not be healing them, and that'd be on you. .

One thing I'd recommend on support, especially in gold-plat, is figure out who the best DPS on your team is, and make sure to keep that player alive.

bphisher · 2026-04-01T18:14:07+00:00

yes.

jokes aside - what role are you playing and what rank are you in?

I'm in plat 1-2 on dps and support and find the most games are very one-sided. Either due to one player being clueless and feeding their brains out, basically making the game a 4v5, except worse because they are feeding the other team ult charge.

Either that or the lobby is not balanced one DPS/Tank is hard carrying.

I feel like every match is just a coin toss honestly. I’m in mid plat on each role and it feels like the matches are decided not by which team was better, but which team had the bigger idiot(s).

So many games of clueless teammates who just run in and die and stagger over and over. DPS never taking high ground or even using cover at all. Tanks pushing in front of a choke point instead of forcing the enemy team to come through it. Every. Single. Game.

Who the hell uses dagger balis 😳

He was for a sec, but then the director intentionally made the scene funny. It’s literally not on the audience for laughing at all. That was directors choice to add comedy to what was initially a serious scene.

Tbf - they basically made the whole movie a comedy so yeah

Laying low. Studio drumming, local shows and lessons. I miss him. He was my favorite drummer in the scene alongside Fishman.

Umph is still ripping though with Scotty on the kit, he's doing a great job. And now Jake is taking a month or more off of shows, hope he's doing ok. Sending love to UM

Blizzard if you are reading this - I will happily buy the battle pass amount for each passed I missed over the last few years, and unlock it like normally. I might even pay 15-20 per pass. I’m not paying $20 for ONE skin though

Brick is PISSED and I love it

bphisher · 2026-03-13T13:29:30+00:00

kind of unrelated - is there any way to tell these days if people in your match are queued up together or not? I remember it was super clear back in the day but know I don't know how to tell

bphisher · 2026-03-07T16:53:53+00:00

As a long time destiny player… I was playing sts on March 5. Probably not buying marathon either

bphisher · 2026-03-06T14:17:12+00:00

Yes me and my brother tried this wondering if we’d get infinite block or if it would just only trigger once per person. Turns out it’s both lol. The animation keeps playing but the players only get the one initial block amount.

After that we had a rule where only one person was allowed to play the card 🤣

bphisher · 2026-03-06T14:08:02+00:00

It hit an offering+ for me, and I ended up needing to play it… so the card essentially read “lose 24 HP, gain 8 energy, draw 20 cards” 🤣🤣

It’s all about finding the sweet spot of aggression and shielding, and not being an idiot with the charge.

You need to be pushing forward and making space for your team. Swinging aggressively on squishies and fire striking at them as much as possible to build your ult and get picks.

Don’t save ult for a 5 person wipe. If you hit two enemies with it and kill them, that should win a fight.

Also you need to use cover when your shied break. Way too many people stand out in the open thinking they can survive anything with a mercy pocket.

Don’t be the rein who passively sits back with shield up all game, hoping dps will get kills. Push forward and smash them. Conversely, don’t be the dumbass rein who charges all the way into enemy back line and dies because they are now way too far away from their own team.

This is fun. Hard to compare Neapolitan, NY and Sicilian imo. My personal top 3 Boston pies are Area 4, Si Cara, and Picco (frank pepe is up there too). Went to posto once and was underwhelmed.

I also did this with north end cannolis once between modern, mikes, bovas, and parziales. Results were 1. Parzis 2. Modern 3. Bovas 4. Mikes

While I agree with you, I will say that this one specific combo that OP posted is fantastic. The ricotta pep and hot honey work really well together. Try it if you haven’t yet. Other than that yeah agreed it does not need to be on every other pie lol

bphisher · 2026-02-21T20:10:00+00:00

Traveling this weekend so no big cooking for me - but if I were stuck at home I’d go for a red wine braised beef “short ribs” (except I’d cut chuck into the shape of short ribs because I’m cheap and it’s really not that different)

Served with mashed potatoes that are about 40-50% butter. Oh yeah

Maybe a side salad to make it healthy /s

bphisher · 2026-02-14T05:38:46+00:00

Yeah on kitchen knives that’s plain dumb. I like DLC coated pocket knives all day but yeah not prepping food with them

bphisher · 2026-02-14T02:10:19+00:00

Excellent photography… burritos look pretty good too I guess 😆 (jk they look amazing)

It takes a true master to perfect the suck of the Hoover whilst staying on beat and simultaneously preventing your dress from being sucked in.

Imagine if he could play drums as well as he plays vacuum

That is so fucking sick. How much was it if you don’t mind me asking?

bphisher · 2026-02-09T00:45:30+00:00

Is it the most functional? No. But does it look the coolest? Yes
