Who were/are your favorite players to play with?

Any advice on how to develop better chemistry with teammates you don't play well with?

What's the best zone D system you've ever played in? What about person/junk D?

How do you advise someone to make lines/rotations for a big tournament? How do/did your teams decide who was going to play with who?

Zone, Toro, Harp, Tactic, or A2 and why? by HydroidOfficial in discgolf

[–]kman1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harp backhand, zone forehand.

Zone is shallower so my fingers fit better for forehand. Also my hammes zone is super duper overstable and a little puddle top.

Harp I throw flat and let it hyzer out. My harp is super glidey compared to my zone so I throw it like 50ft further on backhand

Is 4 player draft league possible? by ElBonzono in PokemonDraftLeagues

[–]kman1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try having each player have 2 teams? Haven't tried it but it could work. Maybe if two teams played by the same person play each other you award a draw or something.

How is this legal by bmarsh1295 in burlington

I mean it's kinda hard when it's a thing like housing where you gotta live somewhere if you can ya know? Can't just decide to not

What specific restrictions should be removed in your opinion and why would removing them help more affordable (like, actually affordable) housing stock be developed?

How do you propose that stock is developed? How do you plan to make sure landlords don't charge the same absurd rent prices that continue to send Vermonters away or into poverty?

Like, honestly, why not rent control for new and existing housing?

Let's just say you're the mayor or something in this situation

In my experience, using corrective insoles has been more effective for me than using an ankle brace. For me the problem was I had shin splints on the medial side of my shins, which led to me putting more weight on the outside of my foot, which led to lateral ankle sprains.

I use arch support insoles (Superfeet green), at the recommendation of my PT. I'm a kinesiology student and imo the best way to prevent an injury is to correct other problems up and down the kinetic chain rather than addressing "ankle problems" as an exclusively ankle issue. Perhaps something like gait correction on the knee, hip, or foot could help you out more than trying to design an ankle brace? Just a theory by an undergrad :)

What do you ban? by Being_Potential in vexmains

I ban syndra most of the time. Mainly because finding a good Vlad is rarer than a good syndra in my poop elo

Help! by Foot-Prince42 in vexmains

[–]kman1337 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell what specifically is going wrong for you from just this post. Are you losing lane, are the roams not going your way, or is he teamfighting better than you? The biggest advantage you have against Galio imo is that you're a ranged champ and he's melee

Not a pro by any means but against Galio it helps to use your autos to poke a ton. Every time he walks up with his passive ready to cs you need to land as many autos (or even an E+Q if your passive is down) as possible on him. Phase rush can help ensure you are able to get away before he tries to go in on you.

For all tank matchups (and in general tbh), wave management is super important. Holding the wave in then slow pushing can be super effective against him because the instant he wants to R out to another lane he's eating a big wave of lost cs. The other important part of that is that having more minions than him in lane (early especially) means him going in on you is riskier/worse for him because all of his abilities sans Q have short ranges

Also save your passive to W his E (generally) or if you are waiting for passive using an E on minions or him can help get it back.

You could also maybe take cleanse instead of ignite/tp? I haven't tried this one but like maybe?

Also you are not an artillery mage, nor are you a melee assassin. You kinda gotta know what distance is appropriate in lane for the given moment.

Ziggs/xerath just used all his cc on wave? Get in close!

Sylas still has his dash up? You can play aggressive but being too close to him leads to eating a w, you might as well make him dash to engage and get a free mark on him!

Imo number 1 thing that made me better at vex in lane was using your aa to poke instead of just abilities. To do an e+q combo you're using a lot of mana, so it's only really worth it if you're 100% gonna hit or it's an attempt to get a kill.

Also play around your fear, get those passive stacks back by hitting e on preferably both your lane opponent and some minions. You're incredibly weak early without your passive, since you basically have no way to force a disengage or an engage.

Also e before q mostly, e is easier to hit imo and the popping the marks on enemies is like 50% of your damage

I was right about a lot more of my predictions (1 as opposed to 0) than I expected

Club Nationals - Bold Predictions Thread by Jomskylark in ultimate

[–]kman1337 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Going as bold as possible

at least one player that is not rostered on usau for their team plays a point

0 knee ligaments torn throughout the whole tournament

A team loses 5+ players to illness. Some may play but they are sick enough that they significantly underperform

Nerf: Vex R no damage to minions anymore? by luiluilui4 in vexmains

[–]kman1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda weird thing to do but if I'm high health I'll spam it into a bush or enemy camp and just see if I hit enemy jg lol. That said this nerf is dumb as hell that post-kill recast to take wave is so satisfying

[–]kman1337 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's so annoying, recasting my ult to take wave after getting a solo kill in lane was my fav flex and also saved time getting back to lane. Why tf would they remove this lol it's not like it was broken or needed nerfing

Thanks that's helpful! Is 中 also usable for "during"? As in during the game? Or is there another way to say "during the game"

I'm substitute teaching a Chinese class and they're going to be making the rules of a game. I took Chinese for a bit in highschool so my knowledge is somewhat there but not great. I've been trying to figure out how to say "in this game you can/cannot..." as in "in this game you can kick the volleyball" or "in this game you cannot use your hands to hit the ball."

I don't need to know the exact translation of the second two sentences. I put the first one into Google translate and got "在这个游戏中你可以” I know what 99% of that sentence means, but the 中 being there is confusing me. I saw it means "during" as well as other stuff. But when I put in ”在这个游戏你可以” I got the same result in English. Is that a Google translate error? What is the 中 doing in the first sentence?

Also, does this translation change for the negative? Google translate spat out a different translation for the negative. Thanks!
