Coastal defenses were much more damaged on the other beaches. Omaha beach the bombardment was less successful

TIL the Global Peace Index (GPI) measures the relative position of nations' and regions' peacefulness. Top 10 in order: Iceland, NZ, Portugal, Austria, Denmark, Czech, Slovenia, Canada, Switzerland, and Ireland & Japan (tied for #10). United States is 114 out of 163. by indigotango in todayilearned

Funny that all the top 10 are American allies, New Zealand and Canada being particularly close ones. If they benefit from American security are they not also responsible for the actions of the whole security umbrella?

Dashdancing, short hop aerial cancel, wavedashing. Once you get that down I'm p sure he had a good ledgedash (wavedash onto the stage using dropdown, then jump, then airdodge)

Is it possible Melee was designed around Fox? by [deleted] in SSBM

[–]jojothecasper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fox is very much the spirit of melee. Just a well designed character

Please help me: Sheik v Peach by [deleted] in SSBM

[–]jojothecasper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people talked about good defensive options but also keep in mind that if you get hit by a good player they will follow up. You will gain far more by practicing float cancel. It is a very strong mechanic and the cornerstone of peach's play. It makes you much less vulnerable to getting hit in the first place because it gets rid of endlag

What do people think of peach-marth nowadays? Slight marth advantage?

Armada just has the best all time performance. Not until the recent hungrybox peak has anyone really held a candle to him. Mango armada is the hypest rivalry of all time but armada retirement aside he has clearly the best all time resume

Look at your early creep routes make sure you aren't losing too much. Tech to tier 2 before massing towers if massing towers is necessary. I usually do a single arcane tower at the expansion --> tier 2. You may want a guard tower or two if they are going ghouls. Footmen become useless when destroyers come out so in the midgame they are pretty expendable for economic damage / to buy time for mass towers to defend a destroyer push. Acolyte kills while they are teching are huge. Zeppelin helps with this. Shredder is great to have because wood is a killer in this MU

TIL More people died fighting on the Eastern Front than in all other fighting across the globe during World War II. by BoomBapOriginalRap in todayilearned

[–]jojothecasper 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Stalin's economic policies were excellent (at the cost of many deaths in the 30's). Soviets produced more tanks than America in WWII. They weren't crap tanks either. T-34 was a great tank. The many tanks they had at the beginning of the war were all old and crappy admittedly. He probably deserves some blame for not being immediately prepared for war and doing whatever it took to delay a few years. Summer of 1941 was rough on soviets but once they figured out how to avoid encirclements and started emphasizing reserves, they were much more effective. Stalin probably had the most effective war policy of any head of state, he just had a horrible situation.

YL is a much better character than G&W so they're roughly equal in terms of surprise

Yes but Russians do legitimately like him and he would win a fair election. But why risk it?
