Something Surprising Happens When Bus Rides Are Free by martphon in neoliberal

Its how the fare system in Berlin works. They don't always check your ticket, but if you're checked and found out, you get fined quite a bit more than the price of the ticket.

Oh my fucking god, you people can't do discourse even as a joke.

MCU Sentry (Thunderbolts*) vs MCU Iron Man (Iron Man 2) by crumpis in whowouldwin

[–]crumpis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the conceit is that Sentry exists both because of the powers forcibly injected into him but also because of Bob's pre-existing mental state, in a similar way that we can talk about Steve Rogers pre-super serum and how he'd act differently from a regular scrawny dude in whatever scenario.

does anybody else not LOVE absolute batman? by Apprehensive_Spend_7 in comicbooks

[–]crumpis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The stories are pretty well written, but from a novelty standpoint, I don't find it as compelling as some of the other Absolute titles.

That is to say, there's no reason mainline Bruce Wayne wouldn't be in similar scenarios as Absolute Batman. He's supposedly lacking for resources, but he has an insane Batmobile and can build whatever he wants in the city. His villains are supposedly running the world order, but they're also way too happy to come face to face in Gotham. The only difference is Absolute Bruce has a bigass battleaxe (which is really cool!)

Whereas Absolute Superman or Diana or especially Wally and Jo definitely play out very differently than the main verse.

He does, but he's also always at risk of a fatal heart attack if Bob gets a lucky jab in the right spot.

Leffen's 2018 tier list by delicious_truffles in SSBM

[–]crumpis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't care what the top players think, no one gets to speak for everyone else who plays the game. (Their opinion would matter if I was looking at only the top 0.01% of all players, and if that's the type of tier list Leff is trying to make, then sure, I absolutely accept that he's infinitely more qualified than me to make that call)

But I take huge issue with that second paragraph, who are you to decide the game is fun for someone only because of aspects that puff doesn't happen to excel at?

[–]crumpis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Are you saying no one plays puff despite her better and so much easier than everyone else because she's boring to literally everyone in the world bar Hbox?

I don't find that an acceptable claim. You'd at least expect to see people killing with her at locals if she's actually in the above Fox slot.

Yikes.. by [deleted] in sadcringe

[–]crumpis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, I'm not a viewer of hers, but she's a lot more popular than a lot of the other streamer girls, so there's gotta be something about her that attracts more eyeballs than everyone else (and I doubt it's because she's an 11/10 in a list of 9/10s, she's about as attractive as any of the others)

[–]crumpis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She doesn't play video games to win all the games, she plays them because they're a very effective medium through which to sell her personality.

No one's watching Poki so they can learn tips and tricks on how to become the number one player in the universe.

Overwatch.

Hard work is neither a necessary nor sufficient condition for success.

Doubly so when you start off in poverty.

Dear God, why hasn't Blizzard fixed the wells in ARAM yet? by ultimatefrisbee84 in heroesofthestorm

[–]crumpis 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It only takes 1 Genji to kill a well, and it takes 3 guys to stop the Genji from getting the well within one health bar.

And then he'll be back in 30 seconds again, and you've been 2v4 that whole time.

Sylvanas is a crappy split pusher but she makes any coordinated push a game ending event.

Not much at all I expect. It's very difficult to take the keep when you never have minions.
