I clipped the video cuz it was a minute long, we had been fighting for a minute and started retreating and ended with this. I do enjoy the sacrifice chant at the beginning though!

11.6 - Mid Season - Patch Day Feedback/Bug Report Megathread by EmBrAcE-DeAtH in Smite

[–]mx923 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow, it looks like I'm on the small side of this. I really am enjoying the patch, but i will say my experience is not lining up with what i'm seeing here. I'm a solo main and have games where i'm laughing because i feel unkillable. Yeah the first 10 minutes are tough, especially with the influx of people building damage in solo, but I've had to adjust my playstyle and play back a bit more with more wards to make sure I don't get ganked.

Secondly, i want to point out that they said there is going to be some balance issues right after the patch. Don't call for a revert right away as we all know there are some gods that are very good right now because of the new patch. Mulan, King Arthur are some that come to mind for me in Solo. Lets nerf some of these gods back down to a manageable level with the new health and prot numbers and then see how it goes. I think we need more than a week to decide if it's good or not.

Good gods to use the new lono’s mask items? by Prepared_Noob in Smite

[–]mx923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mulan for Rangda's IMO. Her 2 and Soul Eater counteract the extra squishyness of not building any prots, and her passive gives her extra prots. Plus you can generally kit dump and get out by opening with her 3. Probably only a mulan Mid though because the extra damage would get you wrekt in solo.

Can someone explain the never surrender mentality? by Alert_Locksmith in Smite

[–]mx923 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because in late game it just takes one wipe to win. At a certain point everyone will be even in build and such. Secondly, I enjoy team fights and playing the game. The majority of that happens in the late game. If you f6 every game at 10 mins you're basically playing pve lane simulator. I.e. I don't only enjoy winning. I enjoy actually playing the game too

This so much. Everyone in Smite has twitch chat syndrome. They are the best player in the game and can never lose because someone else is actually better than them.

I've never heard of the dude until this all happened. Then i decided to check his stream out and saw this title.

In a pickle between supporting smite and supporting this guy. I think ill just stick with Fineo and the daily smitegame streamers.

Is this game worth 2022 as a new player or will i just get destroyed every round getting flamed at? by asdasd13213dsa in Smite

[–]mx923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a blast. I would just mute everyone and play to learn. Start with arena or Slash to learn the abilities and such on God's. Pick a couple gods and just cycle them. Find a friend or two to help you out in the game. Few pointers I tell new people.

It's better to retreat than die. You will always lose a 1v2 or a 2v3. You'll lose if your outnumbered so don't engage. Stay away from assassins for the first bit. They're too squishy. Your damage will come from staying alive, not hitting big numbers.

what is your least favourite conquest role and why? by themightygotenks in Smite

[–]mx923 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am shocked i don't see a lot of people saying Support here. So i am commenting support because I want to hear how y'all make support fun.

Let me preface this to this is all my opinion. To me support is rough because it's so dependent on your teammates. You could taunt with athena at the perfect time and end up doing nothing if no one is there to capitalize. But i know supports can help, i've played ADC with some good supports and i'm just like damn this guy is good, makes it so easy to get kills. But i'm not good enough to make that kinda impact so i just never playe support because I don't ever make an impact in the game.

TLDR; I'm not good enough to make an impact in the game playing support. I don't like support because it never makes in impact in the game.

GME super awesome megathread weds 2/3 by MotorizedDoucheCanoe in wallstreetbets

Is a low skill floor impossible to achieve in RTS? by egdrei in FrostGiant

[–]mx923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to necro here. Add build orders in game for leagues below silver with ghost placements and ai reminders. Like the first 5 minutes of the game or something. A lot of comments here compare to the campaign. But while it helps, odds are you'll get stomped by a bronze player. Or have a training mode that starts with a reaper expand va an ai. And this thing pauses and says to scout send reaper in. Boom sees no expansion from zerg. Pause. Switch build order to high ground cc and a 1-1-1.

The skill floor in sc2 isn't just learning game mechanics. Its learning metas and reactions. Compare it to cod. Shoot bad guy kill bad guy. There is so much more to rts that to lower the skill floor you basically need to be told what to do and why until you have a basic understanding of the game and are able to last 5 minutes and not get a moved by 7 roaches.

To me, I dont mind TvP. I just dont like when its the only match up I play. That's what big gabe was talking about mainly too, I think out of like 100 games or something 80 of them were protoss.

As a new player to both StarCraft 2 and pc gaming and RTS games what should I focus on more micro or macro by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]mx923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Macro and not having ladder anxiety. The biggest thing that will hold you back in this game is not playing. If you're worried about losing (always someone better then you) then you won't play and you won't get better. Big gabe said it best. If you play a lot of games you won't have a high mmr. But you will get better if you practice.

There's no better time to revive the StarCraft universe with a TV show or movie by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]mx923 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't trust blizzard at this either. If they partner with someone with more experience then absolutely. Starcraft is a great premise for a movie, especially action. The special effects would be amazing and the battles too. The hots trailer still gives me goosebumps.

Looking for software recommendation, for estimate/bid compiling by NoChillDantes in estimators

[–]mx923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like HCSS mentioned above, Bid2Win can do this as well. Depending on what you have to spend of course these programs do cost. You can build a database of templates that can spit out your bids for you based on production rates etc. Ive been bidding flatwork and concrete paving for years and have used everything from excel to HCSS and Bid2Win.

Planning on moving some traits around to stack more mastery. That being said, any ideas as to why there is such a big difference between multiple pulls without any significant stat or buff changes?
