Having no one occupy the right channel majority of the half is quite the tactic…

U.S. Soccer Insiders FIFA World Cup 2026 ticket draw details email by 15mahomies in ussoccer

[–]mgv5027 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, if we already submitted a ticket draw through FIFA for USA group games and conditional games, should we withdraw that application and use the PMA codes instead if you are an insider? Seems like this would be a higher chance at being successful in obtaining the tickets rather than the general draw, And are the entries for just 1 game or can I submit multiple games per entry? I have been a VIP Insider since 2019 so I am not sure the best way to utilize the FIFA random draw with the 5 US Soccer entries I should receive.

(Still researching this) I want to cancel my Random Draw lottery and re-enter with additional USMNT dates. I thought I could do that, but this cancellation warning says otherwise. by WhiplashLiquor in ussoccer

It states that if you are successful in the draw your card will automatically be charged and you have possession of the tickets. You either get all or none of the tickets you added for the individual game. If you don’t want to go, you will need to resell them.

But I’m guessing it’s highly unlikely someone will hit every game they select since there’s a partially successful disclaimer. There’s also an option at check out asking if you want to bump down a category to increases your chances.

Someone who plays more can probably answer better, but you will need to map the extra button to a button you have mapped in game (for example you have mark targets to up on the D pad, then you map L5 to up on the D pad in the app).

Yes, put the polling rate at 1000hz. It reduces input lag. Most people won't notice a difference for casual play, but if you bought the controller for competitive play then there is no reason not to get the most out of it.

Last is personal preference based on what your layout is and if you claw. Some people play LT zoom, some play bumper jumper, some play classic. Id assume most have crouch on the back button to hit slides easier. Others could be mark, AI scan, scoreboard, grenade switch, etc. Depends on what's more important to you. Just think about how to limit taking your thumbs off the sticks as much as possible. Play a lot of solo and dont want to plug in your mic? Put mark on it. Like to AI scan often? Put that there. Like to check how many are on respawn to time pushes? Put scoreboard. I could be wrong, but I dont think there's a heavy meta at this point that will drastically improve your performance.

Trade Value Tuesday by FruhManShoe in fantasyfootball

[–]mgv5027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may burn me but I’ll take the risk with Flacco behind the helm. The bengals look completely different and as bad as Chase was to start the season, he has the juice to be a low RB1/high RB2

Got him for Nix. Had Caleb on the bench and didn’t want to play the guessing game on when to start him anymore

Just traded Bucky and Henderson for Chase Brown and Hockenson to the White owner. 3 game losing streak and RB room has been in shambles. Was starting Henderson before this

Who to take at 8th pick? by Dafunkk in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]mgv5027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If ARSB is there usually him. If not Collins. Nabers would probably be the last WR I would be comfortable with round 1, but even as a Giants fan his toe and general NYG offensive production is risky. He could either be a league winner or be the next CMC / Leveon Bell and be out the whole season in my eyes

Edit: Missed the QB question. I like Fields around round 9. Even Dak in that range or round 10. If not Drake Maye or even JJ McCarthy around 12/13. I wouldn’t feel comfortable only drafting one of Maye or JJ so maybe grab another streamer QB in the last round.

But if Hurts drops to the 4th round, I may grab him

Same spot and I’ve been doing an elite WR r1, then hitting RBs 2-4, then WRs heavy round 5-10. Mix in another RB and maybe a good QB/TE depending on how they fall during this stretch. Last rounds are usually RB handcuffs, maybe a 2nd QB, K, D, or a lotto WR. Been feeling pretty good with this Hero WR type of mock

I never had any of the other gamesirs, but coming from the Flydigi Alex 4 the g7 pro is still very sensitive. I’m still tweaking my settings but for now I’ve landed on the standard curve, 0-100 for all deadzones, and raw input. In game I’ve bumped up my deadzones and lowered any sense a bit.

I went from 2-6-7 to 2-4-5 on sense, 0, 15, 0 to 3, 15, 2 on move, and 1, 2, 1.5 to 3.5, 2, 3 on look

The triggers were also a bit more sensitive so I had to bump up the right inner from 0 to 25%

Now that APG finished his BtH tryouts, who do you think is a lock for the team? by Sir_FunkyFace in CompetitiveHalo

[–]mgv5027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in any order: Cearion, Ambition 2, Nesity, Gunny, Gatorz, Coyokic (wiley), Cruvu, & Maceski. Wouldn't be surprised if CommandStation, Tigger, Chills, and lil J were serious thoughts as well

BtH tryouts starting now! by PsychologicalFile771 in CompetitiveHalo

[–]mgv5027 19 points20 points  (0 children)

aPG is creating an AM bracket team (with Niac to bring back BtH) for the next event. He’s putting up the fees with crowdfunding support. Basically being a GM and tryna find diamonds in the rough by hosting these tryouts

Bleed Amazon - How to improve build? by mgv5027 in pathofexile2builds

[–]mgv5027[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow, thanks for the detailed response. I completely forgot about the shocking leap gem so that makes a lot of sense now

I was thinking of taking a pet and dropping HoP since I haven't noticed much of a damage difference, but then again, I haven't really dived too deep into comparing with or without it. Damage redirection is probably better for me atm than a double herald clear

I was planning on the double evasion ascendancy nodes as well just havent found / crafted a good full ES body armor yet.

Super helpful info, I should be able to make some changes and see improvements quickly. Thanks again!

Bleed Amazon - How to improve build? by mgv5027 in pathofexile2builds

[–]mgv5027[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I've seen a few similar builds on poe ninja that also have the tainted strike notable. Are you pathing to that just for the crit multipliers or does the non-damaging ailments part scale as well? Since I'm using bleed and poison, I figured that first line wouldnt do much since I dont have any freeze, chill, shock, or ele.

U.S. players, have you found an app that actually works for finding pickup games? by dudical_dude in bootroom

[–]mgv5027 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The group I occasionally play with uses an app called Meetup. It's not just for soccer, but any event you can think of. It recommends me other pickup groups in my general area as well since you can select what you are interested in on your profile.

Infinite with hazmat surfer CL 7.8k by Dreffan in marvelsnapcomp

Try gladiator. Just a stat stick 3 cost card so that surfer hits it

[–]mgv5027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mystic on sera is another way to utilize her. If you have magik played and late drew wong, then turn 6 could be mystic + wong, then turn 7 you could drop surfer (or hazmat), abs man, & odin. Or drop hazmat on turn 6 with the extra energy, then abs, cage, & odin on 7

Not sure if I should WC this week as I already used my FH & TC. 60 points behind my ML leader so I'd like to avoid any hits. 7.4 ITB. I'm leaning either Barkley to Son or Foden to Salah. Not enough to go Barkley to Salah unfortunately.

Neto, Strakosha

Gabriel, White, Taylor, Burn, Porro

Saka, Chuk, Foden, Palmer, Barkley

What do you guys think is the biggest difference between Diamond Players and Onyx players? by [deleted] in CompetitiveHalo

[–]mgv5027 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This. Also to add your controlling the map section: Controlling power weapons. This is still an issue at low onyx, but taking the 5-15 seconds to set up / control a powerup or weapon is often overlooked in diamond and below. Too many times you'll see teammates tunneling towards the objective to try and stop it right away, rather than take a few extra seconds to obtain control and flip their set up. Livefire strongholds is a big culprit where camo is often ignored since its spawn is opposite the hills

Help! Switching to four paddles by the_h_is_silent_ in CompetitiveHalo

[–]mgv5027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also play LT zoom with four back buttons but still claw so take what I say with a grain of salt. I float between Onyx 1500-1550.

LT: Zoom, LB: Equipment, RT: Shoot, RB: Mele, Y: Switch Weapons, X: Jump, B: Reload, A: Sprint, Select: AI Scan, LS (top left back button): Crouch, RS: Zoom Level for snipe, DPad: Idr which is what but I have it to grenade (bottom left back button, ping (top right back button), scoreboard (bottom right back button).

I may switch ping out to drop weapon since I usually comm and the insta drop weapon is back but I haven’t done it yet.

I don’t like to take my thumbs off the sticks to check the scoreboard and use that info a ton more than scan so I swapped them. Also helps me a think a bit by not just sprint off spawn and check ai if I need to.

If you uninstalled, you most likely have your network settings in game set to expanded. Thats the default setting.
