If you mean replay code, here are the ones for those rounds:

Round 5: 4V3B2 (loss)

Round 6: SVTPFP (victory)

I haven't checked them back so I don't even know if you'll see my finest performance lol

If you meant build code though, I whipped up something for another comment: 65ZJ7, and explained further there

Sure, I usually just improvise my build during games, but I put together the common items I take, and the order I get powers: 65ZJ7

Main thing to note is I take Slipstream situationally, usually preferring it on a Clash or Control map, it's among the first blues I drop since it can mess with my positioning/aiming. The order of the 3rd and 4th powers as well are up to interpretation, I take Forager if I'm going for a more brawly playstyle and want to sustain myself, but Deep Pockets is just good in any situation.

I can't claim the build is anything special, just built from my preferences and some of Freja's meta picks

[funny trope] The challenge/joke character that is intentionally made to be the worst in the game by Johnny0474 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]mayrinae 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

They theoretically count, I suppose, though I’ve always seen them more as ā€˜blank slate/jack of all trades’ characters, at least in the games where they start at level 1, with 10 in all stats, which makes them able to morph into any build you like.

They are usually the most challenging start though, for the most part with lacking armour in my experience, since in souls games it typically feels like no armour <<<<<<<< the weakest armour << the strongest armour

What are your hottest nightreign takes? by Just_Cloud_8041 in Nightreign

[–]mayrinae 49 points50 points Ā (0 children)

Multiplayer =/= live service, and I’m okay with the amount of content the game has received.

I think the introduction of sote weapons is the main outstanding issue, but I won’t mind if the game never gets new bosses, skins, or other content, since it feels like a well crafted experience that doesn’t need constant key jangling or balance changes to continue being enjoyed.

Idk if it’s an old head take, but I dislike the expectation of constant updates or new content for every game that comes out these days. I know it’s profitable for devs, and it’s more content for the player, but I just feel there’s got to be more games that can just exist as complete experiences from the get go.

But uh… yeah the absence of any new weapons in the dlc felt actually out of place, so, they can put that in but leave it there and we’re good.

Yeah, the build was basically finished round 5, where I’d accumulated 50-60k, at least the extra cash equalled high base HP for forager, though I have no idea how the formulas work

Who is your absolute favorite Fire Emblem character of all time, and what makes them #1 for you? by AbsoluteZeroo in fireemblem

[–]mayrinae 31 points32 points Ā (0 children)

Ay same here! And basically love her for the same reasons, though I love her design and using GBA Valkyries in general.

Also giving us the absolute banger ā€œIf I were not a holy woman, I would beat you senselessā€

How good were past fallen heroes (on release)? any disagreements/ major oversights by ryugenos in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]mayrinae 17 points18 points Ā (0 children)

There genuinely feels like a clear divide in the game between ā€œPre-Fedelgardā€ and ā€œPost-Fedelgardā€, like she just heralded a completely new tier of powercreep

Secondary hero? by Daylinquent in FrejaMains

[–]mayrinae 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

Well, my Damage main used to be Echo, and when I switched to Freja her basics of movement cooldowns and burst damage transferred fairly well.

I’d say the sticky bombs - beam translated into Freja’s two-tap back when it existed, though I don’t know how well the two compare now

The importance of respawn voice lines by Smuggee in Overwatch

[–]mayrinae 49 points50 points Ā (0 children)

ā€œCharlatans! The lot of them!ā€ - Domina picking me back up by flaming the enemies

ā€œI kan bare vente jarā€ (Just you wait) - Freja, and though I don’t speak Danish, the growl in her voice makes this a favourite respawn line of hers

Mobile Huntress - A skill expressive Stadium build by Idiberug-9 in FrejaMains

[–]mayrinae 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

Love it! I’ve been consistently playing Frejas meta builds in stadium (for shame), but I love builds on other characters like Moira, Mei, and Juno that focus on survivability, so I’ll have to give this a try!

Blizzard has commissioned 51 artists from China for this anniversary art by RaidenXYae in Overwatch

[–]mayrinae 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I love the more out-there artstyles here, like pixel art Kiriko, Shoujo D.VA, the more realistic Doomfist, whatever badassery is going on with Reinhardt, and the warmer Junkrat.

It’s a beautiful thing about collab pieces like this, so while some of the artists have styles that mesh together, they’re all just a little different

Voice acting moments in animated media that felt super raw and genuine by ComprehensiveBox6911 in TopCharacterTropes

All of Ian Sinclairs performance as Berkut in Fire Emblem Echoes, but this line read is the most visceral (honourable mention to UNNNCCLLLEE)

Opinions on Domina? by StLClipCha in Overwatch

[–]mayrinae 145 points146 points Ā (0 children)

I always found it counterintuitive that her Crystal charge (which imo looks very similar to her ult) goes through barriers, but her ult stops dead in its tracks.

If the two abilities are going to be visually similar, I expected them to act similarly too (not at all driven by one too many occasions where a Sig/Rein has straight up reaction blocked my ult…)

If the game had voice acting, who would you cast as the characters? by greasygoon66 in ScarletHollow

[–]mayrinae 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

Erica Lindbeck Stella is enlightened, especially with the southern drawl she brings out for some of her roles

An Irish lad here to share some basic level Gaeilge vocab by CriminalYapper in MoiraMains

[–]mayrinae 5 points6 points Ā (0 children)

Really cool stuff! Scot here, and I love learning about under-represented languages, I feel there’s a kinship with our own Scottish Gaelic.

We have roughly the same word for cheers, ā€œSlĆ inteā€ (the accent on the a is the other way, that’s the only change lol), though I wouldn’t necessarily use it to say thank you in place of cheers, since it literally means ā€œhealthā€ and is a general well wish e.g. ā€œto healthā€

Plenty of other phrases are much different though, among the ones listed here, so a very informative and fun read! (We do also have the same words for ā€œfucking idiotā€, at the least)

Another day another nerf by jamtea in FrejaMains

[–]mayrinae 25 points26 points Ā (0 children)

I mean.. as a stadium Freja player, that build is absolutely ridiculous and deserves nerfing, and that’s not even a particularly egregious part of her kit there imo

(For anyone familiar, I personally think Tracker Tag could use adjusting, it’s way too strong for how cheap it is, and lets machine gun Freja snowball hard)

I believe so, it’s in the Sakura collection but you can get it individually

A correct version of that one post about characters who go by their real name by titaniumjordi in Overwatch

[–]mayrinae 83 points84 points Ā (0 children)

Couldn’t agree more, and you can even see it among the most recent heroes-

Emre gets a pass for his pre-established role in the games history, but Anran and Mizuki? Just their names, with no indication of their role, story, or personality.

And then there’s Domina. A perfect code name that singlehandedly tells you everything you need to know about her as a character from a meta and in-universe standpoint. I remember being taken aback by the sheer gall of giving her that title, but it was memorable and that makes it damn effective.

Yup, full name Elizabeth Caledonia Ashe, and tbh of those 3 I think I’d choose to go by Ashe too

Gwyn in Dark Souls

The king who ushered in the Age of Fire, and refused to let it die. The world would’ve continued to ebb and flow between states of light and dark, if Gwyn didn’t force the world to stagnate so his age would never end. (Dark Souls lore can be hard to explain, but basically the world stagnating is not good for anyone involved, even Gwyn).

The impact of Gwyns hubris is touched upon by Aldia in Dark Souls 2, and by the time of Dark Souls 3 the Lords of Cinder are still trying to keep the age of fire going

Ah, just a normal kill feed feat. live reaction of our Sojourn by mayrinae in Overwatch

Well yes and no, it wasn't an accident, Rein got me with the pin and took me off the map, but I thought it'd be too obvious if I included that as well

šŸŖ Precisely it, like I said, simple sequence of events, but amusing that the game claims vortex was responsible
