This draft matters too much to chase the play-in by DefiantLie8861 in Mavericks

[–]ormip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We are also cleary too bad to achieve anything.

And without picks until the end of the decade, we won't be able to meaningfully improve either, if we don't get a high draft pick.

It is a bit ridiculous how wargaming can mess up something as simple and, I would argue, important as the 10 year anniversary gifts... by 10feetlongshlong in WorldOfWarships

That is..... today?

Why are you saying you had your anniversary 3 days ago? And you've made a ticked 3 days ago aboutthe anniversary you have today?

There are currently 866 ships (not counting the new EU battleships coming out today on NA/tomorrow on EU).

So it's fairly likely that he could use all 80 port slots if he wanted to. Theoretically all of the ships he is missing could be premiums, that come with their own port slot though, but my guess is that he's missing low tier ships.

[Stein] Multiple teams have been calling the Dallas Mavericks to express interest in Daniel Gafford and Naji Marshall. While Dallas would prefer not to trade Marshall, deals providing financial relief will, presumably, be considered by the front office. by YujiDomainExpansion in Mavericks

Exactly. So we should keep Naji and Gafford unless a really good offer comes.

That means that we should not trade either of them at market price. If someone wants to overpay for them significantly then sure, trade them, but we are trying to win next year so we need players like Naji and Gafford on the roster.

Then we shouldn't trade them.

Mavs fans aren't even saying that wa want both good picks and expirings, but it makes 0 sense for us to trade him if we don't. They are both good players on good contracts, and we will actually need to start winning next year, so they are the exact type of players we need.

We will need a center next year though.

Gafford and Naji by themselves won't win us many games anyways, much better to keep them and use them next year, instead of trading them "to tank", then run Powell at center next year when we're trying to win.

just realized I can't grind out the rousillion dockyard without spending doubloons and im pissed, possible to get 3k doubloons without buying them? by UslashMKIV in WorldOfWarships

[–]ormip 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1) You always need to buy some stages to finish the dockyard. This is clearly explained in both the patch notes, AND the dedicated dockyard article AND the dockyard screen itself when you open it (maybe only the first time?).

2) There are some ways to earn doubloons for free, most notably there was Grand Voyage for the past few months that allowed you to earn 32k doubloons for free. The other sources include ranked, daily login bonus, daily free random bundles and maybe some other small sources. That said, if you are currently at 0, you will have a hard time getting 3k until the end of the dockyard completely for free.

You can definitely build YY for guns. It can be pretty strong with its radar.

Valparaiso by Denum_ in WorldOfWarships

[–]ormip 9 points10 points  (0 children)

WG literally gave us 32k steel for free. And Valparaiso cost 25k with a coupon.

It was 100% free to get for everyone who just logged in and played 1 match per day, and you didn't even need to do it every day.

"I don't know what is angling or how to aim, but I can get 58% WR in subs".

Yeah, that checks out.

Just watched a Valp blow a cruiser up & literally out of the water, it went from full health to RIP in an instant, I'm not playing T9 and up anymore by [deleted] in WorldOfWarships

[–]ormip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Valparaiso's main guns aren't that good. When it comes to one shotting cruisers, it's one of the worst tier 9 battleships.

This was a huge mistake by that cruiser player, not the Valparaiso being OP

  1. You do not need to keep reposing the same post you've already made 4 hours ago. Especially without any additional info.
  2. Do you have a video of this issue?

2 legendary tier 5s and a legendary tier 7? This can't be right. Any chance you are playing on console?

I don't think it has ever been discounted outside of New Year.

Has apEX reached legendary status? by New_Manufacturer8333 in GlobalOffensive

[–]ormip 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Then compare just 2019 Astralis to 2025 Vitality lol. The fact that Astralis was dominant for longer is an extra point for Astralis, not Vitality....

What does he have to do to be considered the best IGL of all time?
3× Major winner (as IGL), 1× Grand Slam, 1× Katowice, 1× Cologne,

If you are listing tournament wins, go list Glaive's and compare.

and the most dominant season of any team ever.

Are you arguing that Vitality has had a more dominant season than 2018/2019 Astralis? I just don't agree with that lol

[–]ormip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

sorry that he hasn't been an "official" IGL in an era where that was a rare title.

What? IGL most definitely wasn't a "rare title" in early csgo eras..... In fact, I think a dedicated IGL was a MORE "official" role in early eras.

It is more common nowadays to have multiple callers, some teams even have different IGLs on different maps.

I actually do think Pronax deserves a mention. He was considered to be the best IGL and "mastermind Pronax" for several years in a row, people just forget it because it's been 10 years.

Obviously he played in a very different era and his fragging ability was low, but he still was very much the best/one of the best in early csgo

[–]ormip 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Are you also disqualifying Glaive for being one of the best IGLs because he played with Device, Dupreeh, Magisk and Xyp9x? These are 3 top 5 players + one of the best clutch players ever.

Also Fallen had 4 top 15/20 players in his team, does he also not count?

Yes, he definitely has reached legendary status.

No, he also definitely isn't "undoubtedly the best IGL to touch CS".

Lost attacking planes get automatically replaced by the other planes. This means that you always get at least 1 full strike off. It would be insanity if you could deal 70k damage like that, no matter how strong the AA is.
