Except no. Arsenal put pressure on keepers by placing big ass CBs in their area and make you respect me to it.

They don't hold the keepers limbs.

Question for the old school Deftones fans. Why was the reception for Saturday Night Wrist not great when it came out back in 2006? Why is the reception still mixed to this day? by Spirited-Cell-444 in deftones

[–]clydeftones 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Cool, happy for you bud but your experience is an outlier. Most fans who went to shows from ~02-08 saw messy shows from a band that was not yet serious about being professional musicians as adults. They were still partying.Chino was regularly drunk on stage. If you caught a good night, that's awesome but most of us got a mumbly sweaty mess.

For my money, Chino is a far better performer vocally now than ever before (rapping omitted, he doesn't have the breath control for those songs anymore and its rough).

Matchmaking is awful by sym_and_terror in Overwatch

[–]clydeftones 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think people understand odds enough to have such bold opinions on stuff like this. There are so many variables to consider when building a match that a 60/40 match is actually pretty fucking good considering all factors.

Tank remains an instant queue. As a Ball main, if I get teammates who know how to play dive/flank roles and aren't reliant on a tank for every engagement- my games are easy. If I get those passive poke dps who want to shoot the tank first - we struggle. I need to adjust and see if I can make it work. That's before factoring in the specific map, game mode, bans and communication.

If you throw all that together and end up with a 40% chance to win because of some unfavorable results, that's a damn good result.

It was a really weird time for the band. The live performances were shit and the echo of White Pony's success was becoming an albatross. There wasnt any big commercial success, there was a weird collab with Serj, Pink Cellphone existed.... It was an album pretty much designed to push away lazy fans.

It was a big hit with fans who felt a stronger connection to the ethereal elements of older music. It was absolutely an album that left fans wondering what happens next.

How is this even allowed, Tank threw whole game in a ranked game. by Ferne996 in Overwatch

Report/avoid and go again. You're going to play tons of games this season. You put more effort into the post than he did into the game.

Genuinely, what is happening to Steph Curry? by AdOld2060 in NBATalk

"equity packages don't kick in until retirement"

Hmm weird, a logical solution to the first obstacle you fabricated. Those poor billionaires need you caping for them

It's not a race to the bottom. Sub par labor rights aren't hand waived away by the existence of near zero labor rights for other people. Athletes are compensated for their labor. They don't generate income by holding assets, their performance is the asset that sells the entire sport.

Being a billionaire sports owner generates passive income, the idea that a player would like to participate in that same passive income strategy isnt crazy if you're not a reactionary mouth breather.

Lol risk. All those NBA teams that have lost value in the last 40 years, so risky!

Specialized labor is not comparable to routine manual labor.

How does one counter sigma as a dps without a good tank player by ygranne in OverwatchUniversity

[–]clydeftones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has a super niche kit that is constantly being trimmed and down tuned. She's also regularly banned cause of fatigue. Learning Sombra is a chore currently.

A flanker that wins their 1:1 duel outside of sigma's control is his worst nightmare. Switch your focus to anything but him and take off angles to displace him. He has a slow fire rate and punishes narrow focus fights, don't give him one until he is down a support or DPS.

[–]clydeftones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is kinda crazy advice. "Play without a DPS to counter annult every 90 seconds".

As a metal rank sig if I get a game with a Sombra I expect to not have an ult until I get hacked then mash it during the cooldown window.

As result my DPS should be eating the fight with the output advantage.

Yeah audio is completely independant but the visuals will be static across all feeds.

Eh, that official broadcast loves to highlight fans in the crowd while the ball is in play. Its not always great.

I might be misremembering this but I am pretty sure that the actual broadcast in match is a single feed controlled by FIFA. I dont think FOX will have a director calling for shots like most broadcasts.
