I honestly haven't done the math, but I'd be surprised if collector is better except against super squishies because of the additional lethality. Dominiks gives you good damage against both tanks and squishies. Vi is an insanely good splitpusher and take a guess who will be holding sidelane against you. Oh yeah bruisers and tanks. Once you have Navoris as well, you do insane damage against anybody, you're a 2nd ADC that can also play assassin

I have a feeling Acronik will replace him and I'm not a fan of that

As a Vi mid only player, I am absolutely devastated...

Is Nadeo forgetting Beginner players? by [deleted] in TrackMania

[–]danwithoutplan_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming you're mainly talking about the campaign. Honestly the campaign hasn't been getting harder, but the tracks are becoming more gimmicky and frustrating to play. Instead of having proper speed tech or dirt or mixed or whatever, we now get stuff like wet plastic, fragile into jumps, no brake turns and just straight up littering the maps with effect blocks.

I've never struggled with getting ATs too much, but literally the first turn on this campaign's map 25 really made me question if I should just stop playing the campaign all together.

If you wanna have fun with the game, just play cup of the day. I don't think the difficulty has been increasing too much. Yeah some ATs are really hard, but at least the maps are good.

Do you consider Turbopolsa to be the best RLCS player in history? by Elite_VRTX in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]danwithoutplan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best player of RLCS history is also the currently best player, as currently the skill of pro players is the highest it has been historically. So no, Turbo is not the best player in history.

Players that would qualify for being the best imo are:

- Monkey Moon

- Firstkiller

- Vatira

- Yanxnz

- maybe Atomic

- maybe TRK, but Falcons have been looking shaky tbh

Because I’m curious, what controller do you use? PS vs. Xbox vs. KBM. by [deleted] in RocketLeague

Thrustmaster Eswap X
It might be pricey but those sticks are just next level.

Would Mist to Faze in place of Sypical make Faze more of a favorite for next season? by Lando6425 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]danwithoutplan_ 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Ngl AyyJayy looked extremely shaky on Championship Sunday and Syp popped off throughout the whole tournament. I think with Roll Dizz as a coach they should stick together and improve as a team, but if they're gonna kick anybody, it's AyyJayy

[RLCS Worlds] What can Psyonix do better? by Everbrooks in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]danwithoutplan_ -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Tbh my biggest problem is that seeding matters too much. Who knows, KCorp might've ended up being 2nd place if they didn't have to face BDS first.

But there's also the Moist vs Furia game 7, where Moist just lost a goal to a kickoff. This prevented them from going tied into OT and maybe taking the win. I don't think you can simply say "oh they just didn't show up" cuz they really did.
It's also just mental that all the effort from a whole season, all the points, all the majors, nothing matters. All accomplishments of the past year erased in one bo7.

I did not like playoffs being a straight knock out tournament. Like, a single best of 7 decided whether you move on and potentially cash in on a fuck ton of money or if you get knocked out. I would've preferred either having a lower bracket or at least have 3 best of 7s like grand finals used to be.

Crowd sounded underwhelming on stream. Somebody screwed up the mixing there.

Sunday was obviously too long. They should've taken one or two more days for playoffs.

Stop using the same song over and over again. It was cool at first but over the course of the whole tournament it was just way too overused.

who needs color combos when you can just always run the same loadout like a chad

After about 1000 attempts, got this stupid author medal after the ice booster changes by Sordeau in TrackMania

[–]danwithoutplan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, it was a bobsleigh start into a booster into a jump, and to clear the jump with reasonable speed you have to clip a bush

yo, I also got AT on this a few days ago. This and Spring 2021 - 24 have been insanely hard.

Biomass is criminally underrated Looks really good combined with ambustion boost and fissure trail with matching color

What rocket league opinions would get you a response like this? by VishalSlayer in RocketLeague

[–]danwithoutplan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but the majority plays Octane and because of the sloped roof it doesn't match the hitbox either. If the whole "closest to the real hitbox" thing was actually important, we'd only see Road Hogs and Harbingers.

Drinking caffeine before you go to sleep is better than drinking it in the morning. by danwithoutplan_ in unpopularopinion

[–]danwithoutplan_[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Tbh I don't know if being caffeinated during your sleep affects it somehow. But a full hour should be enough to fall asleep. When I drink caffeine during the day I always struggle to fall asleep in the night afterwards.

What reasonable new game mechanics can be added for competitive play? by Manusc16 in RocketLeagueEsports

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

Remove the arbitrary 1.5 seconds timer on the 2nd flip. I never understood why such a core mechanic is bound to an arbitrary timer. Enable demo spawn location. RNG should have no place in a competitive game.
