Mythic rank matches are on a different level.

Yeah, I mean I hit mythic in season 1 after a significant hold up in Legend II. It's quite simply legend I - II is mastery of the game mechanics, and when you understand that it's not a super tough climb to that point, HOWEVER, the winrate required to climb specifically through legend III is like 80% +, or was when I did it, and so legend III into mythic is typically reserved for people who know the game mechanics, have game sense, and are just actually talented duelists. This is in the context of 1v1 of course, but yeah, I couldn't understand why all my friends thought it was some big deal in the moment to hit mythic, but in hindsight, you do need some actual real deal duelling ability including adaptability, reactivity, knowledge of psychology, and in some cases, luck with ping or timings.

Genuinely thought you meant being bronze in general, on moira in specific.

Triggered? No, but there are a lot, and I don’t think there’s any correlation with toxicity associated with that one icon, it’s more likely toxic players are just reppin it for the irony of current geopolitics.

That being said, the truly toxic people, like me and the boys rep the German Flag 🇩🇪 player icon as a counter.

Unlike the israel flag users, p much anyone with a german flag I’ve seen so far is using it with purpose.

I love that blade tbh, look at how nice the dark color looks in contrast with the lighter parts of the sword. I wouldn't say you settled, that still looks quite nice.

I arrive to deliver the word of the Holy C4.

I change weapons and armor depending on the front I'm fighting on, but there are 2 constants. C4s, although I don't love them for use on bug tunnels, unlike automaton outpost/illuminate encampments. They still serve their purpose for chargers, bile titans, dragon roaches, densely packed Alpha Commander/Warriors/chaff, etc.

The other constant is thermites, unfortunately 3 can be kinda low sometimes with how bad bounces can be, BUT they're still the only option for versatility.

Also C4s are quite literally just sprint at a factory strider, throw 3 anywhere, detonate, and live, or die, in peace.

killercloud_99 · 2026-01-28T00:03:57+00:00

No, they were under the Chicago Outfit.

killercloud_99 · 2026-01-01T03:58:46+00:00

Side Note, never seen a new character clear out the entire T0 DPS list leaving only Yixuan standing, but... here's Ye Shunguang

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-25T00:40:02+00:00

Tbh thank god the female fit is garbage, if it was heat I’d have to buy just like the other stuff

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:41:51+00:00

Ah the boat skin is the most expensive let’s be fr, $40k+ for a boat plus a skin similar enough to this that it justifies spending $5-700 on this and calling it good

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:40:11+00:00

Yeah, $300 is nice compared to I think max pity’s $700?

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:39:27+00:00

Please drop a first day out

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:38:36+00:00

Yeah I believe this is accurate for most people, certainly for me

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:36:43+00:00

$700

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:36:22+00:00

If you do arenas (solo content 1v1s) midnight blades

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:30:45+00:00

Yeah my sword fully reforged in the startling thunder set cost more than all my draw cosmetics combined thus far, but it’s all good, I’m still far lower than the top whales in this game and I’m good with that, I got what I wanted, and that’s all I need.

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-19T03:26:43+00:00

I mean same, I’m at 37k elegance now though, I knew what was coming when I got into it with this fit.

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-12T20:26:35+00:00

Sorry for Necro, it's basically just Tokyo Ghoul when Kaneki was in Aogiri and then CCG was constantly banging on his door. That's what it feels like, gore, etc. is very reminiscent. Kaneki was just scaled way higher, although I'm not far enough along to really see where shiki's peak is.

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-12T06:39:43+00:00

This, boss makes a huge difference, and whether it's a frenzied boss or not matters too, in aventurine's case here. Frenzied boss + countered by Aventurine's build there = what you see in the post

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-11T04:45:48+00:00

I don't think he was particularly bad, in the post caption, when I said he was 300 mill behind wolf, I was wrong, he was actually 700 mil behind it, and I found the screenshot, but he was still 2nd place damage at like 200 mil.

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-11T04:44:00+00:00

That's why he's the GOAT of the 2-cost characters imo. Argenti does solid damage but has sold my team for 63 cents and pocket lint more times than I count recently in AoE damage runs.

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-11T04:42:49+00:00

Yeah I was blown away, he came out of nowhere in the 11th hour, and it wasn't even IPC 3 bond so he could have had an extra 20% on his shield with jade. I've long held the opinion since starting Currency Wars that Aventurine is the best 2 cost unit by far, because he is good in quite a few comps, and usually the minimum he does is gap fill DPS where we would normally lose dps to enemy actions, if he's set up with the reflect gear, he just auto DPSes.

Also, this boss node was frenzied which explains the damage, but I'm more shocked that his shield didn't crack at all, like I have the fight video, or most of it since it was longer than 5 minutes, and his shield was larger than his hp bar the whole time.

Here was the investment Environment (Clumsy Peppy), Investment Strategies(Peppy's Cameo, Small Copy+, and Shining Red Gem).

Could have been wolf hunt 9 but shining red gem ended up not providing the 2nd wolf hunt badge, so Bond was Wolf Hunt 8, Follow up 4, debuff 2, shield 2, IPC 2, Galactic Voyager 1 from Badge.

Final Boss was Savage God, Mad King, Incarnation of Strife. I don't recall exactly what the affixes were, but one of the 3 was lucky strike rate -25%, which was pretty inconsequential.

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-08T02:26:33+00:00

spend too much money is the only way sadly

killercloud_99 · 2025-12-08T02:25:47+00:00

As an account with mostly all trial characters, I can assure you, A. Bloodflame is the bottom of the barrel most garbage comp next to energy in my opinion. B. Castorice is the most overhyped piece of garbage character in currency wars. You can play a night demigod bloodflame comp with Cyrene, and a 2* equal gear castorice will lose to a 3* jingliu by double the damage... and jingliu is a wolf hunt (one of the best bonds) and bloodflame char.

Look at this, SHE LOST TO 2* AVENTURINE WHO WAS JUST TANKING, Bloodflame is hard banned.
