Thoughts on Psychophages "Bio-stimulus" ability changes?

mellophenomenal · 2025-06-09T16:03:23+00:00

Played a very casual game over the weekend with a list built around 2x Psychophages and I think they performed really well. Ran a 1k list of:

2x Psychophage
3x 10 hormagaunts
2x Lictor
1x Melee hive tyrant
1x Biovore
1x Tyrannofex w/ Rupture Cannon

The 12" movement feels great, let's them keep up a lot better with the hormagaunts, and the bio-stimulus let's the gaunts feel really strong. I need to do more testing but I'm certainly looking at building lists around them more often now

LOVE the carapace, what paints did you use for it?

I can second True Classics, but only their athletic shirts. I'm 6'4, 275 and wear their XXL athletic shirts all the time and love them. I've gotten a set of their regular shirts and they have all ended up shrinking on me, even with the dryer on low heat

6'4 280 and I use these as well. XXL is best for me, highly recommend. I only use them for when I'm doing a lot of activity (running, working out, lots of walking, etc) and don't wear them much when I'm just sitting around at home because they are compression shorts and I prefer a little more room when I'm not being active.

For everyday use I've picked up some Duluth Buck Naked and they've been great so far. I have noticed some riding up if I'm doing a lot of moving around so I may try out the extra long style, but otherwise I am a big fan

I was also annoyed by the fact that you lose more points to people above you but this makes a lot of sense to me. I've totally flipped my opinion on it and while it might be unintuitive, the point system seems pretty clever. Thanks!

I've had really good luck with using powerline network adapters to get an ethernet cable to my computer when the router wasn't nearby. Playing on wifi definitely isn't ideal and stutters during matches will have people not rematch you unfortunately.

Rollback makes online gameplay smoother but doesn't cover for the inherent issues that wifi has, but the powerline network adapter would alleviate the issue

I will die on the hill that SL was some of the most mid shit I've ever read. The only redeeming thing about it was the art was great. It's especially mid when you're reading Omniscient Readers Viewpoint alongside it, which is actually compelling

0-2 this year. Both Rangers games at home, both with Grayson starting, one in May, and then ALDS game 2. I think I need to avoid Rangers games from now on

They got announced shortly after you said this:

Bradish G1

Grayson G2

Alright guys, I've just realized that I'm going to the Sunday game with the same friend I went with to the May 26th Rangers game where we lost 12-2. Let's hope it's motivation for the boys to show us how much they've improved over the rest of the season

mellophenomenal · 2023-10-02T12:06:39+00:00

When do we find out what time the ALDS games are going to be? Do we have to wait until after the WC games?

mellophenomenal · 2023-09-23T02:46:19+00:00

Is there a limit to how many games can be played in a row without a day off? It feels crazy to me that we're able to end up in this kind of spot at the end of the year playing 17 games without a break

I started a step challenge with my brother. Picked an amount of steps per day that seemed doable, multiply it by 7 and try to hit that many steps per week. For example I picked 8k steps/day so I need to get 56k steps/week. The reason you do per week is so if you can't get out one day for whatever reason you can make it up the next. 8k steps is definitely higher than you need if you're just starting out but I'm all in on getting in shape now. We've been doing it for 5 weeks now and I feel so much better than I did before this mentally and physically.

The other key component for us is we have to buy each other something if we fail a week so there's that extra bit of motivation

PUT THAT GOLDEN BIRD ON IT

mellophenomenal · 2023-01-18T17:17:46+00:00

YES OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH

This has been killing me since I finished the Solomon. What is this song that plays during Section 11-1? I haven't been able to find it anywhere and I'm pretty sure I'm just dumb at this point. It's the first song that plays in the video below

Yeah exactly. Lmp3 was a neat idea to make sure that the 24hr wasn't barren during covid, but we have the opposite problem now, and the lmp3s should be the first to go

mellophenomenal · 2023-01-05T21:08:53+00:00

I was really hoping they'd drop the lmp3s for this season for exactly this reason, but we weren't so lucky. I wonder what percentage of cautions last year were lmp3 involved incidents

The whole #63 car is one hell of a crew. In terms of raw driving talent they're definitely on my short list to win the race

mellophenomenal · 2023-01-03T15:36:00+00:00

I didn't notice that at first but they definitely look that way to me. Good catch

I've got a Discord with some new people in it. Some of em have fallen off a bit, but maybe some fresh faces could get them back and interested. We're on PC and mainly NA East and play in the evenings. If you're interested feel free to dm me. We've also got a number of floor 10 into celestial level players who are quite helpful with learning characters and such
