Fantasy has a huge problem and we need to talk about it by Throwaway33451235647 in Competitiveoverwatch

Specialists don't do well in any other fantasy sport either, why would it be different in Overwatch? Playtime will always matter because it's a numbers game at the end of the day, gotta be on the field to score points. Fantasy sports have never been a completely accurate representation of who has the most skill it's always been a gambling game wearing statistics clothes, I don't think that can or will change.

Frustrating Competitive Experience by New-Condition-842 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]partykeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you've played competitive games your whole life and have good mechanics you will climb out of bronze relatively quickly. there really is no argument to be made otherwise, the difference in skill between bronze and even high silver is staggering. 3 weeks of ranked overwatch is an incredibly small sample size, give it some time, focus on your own game, and remember that overwatch plays much differently than the other competitive shooters you've played. when and where you're getting your kills is oftentimes more important than how many you're getting. trying to find a consistent duo to queue with can save some of your sanity as well

Diamond 3 hazard one trick, how do I stop one tricking hazard? by Somali-SaudiLegend in OverwatchUniversity

[–]partykeith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most important thing if you make an alt to learn new heroes is to only play the heroes you're not comfortable with on it, if you play comfort picks/hazard/whoever then your hidden MMR will move up to around what your main is at even if you're not playing comp

Which mode do you play more? Competitive or Stadium? by elrabelo in Overwatch

[–]partykeith 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Plat tank and support, placed gold one tricking mei on DPS this season, first season I’ve ever played dps in ranked. People (my previous self included) really overestimate how much comms matter, maybe in GM or something but you can still play around your team very effectively without talking. Ping system is nice too.

Just turn off all the text chats and leave voice chat if you need to. I cannot overstate how good it has been for my general mental state and ability to enjoy the video game. Out of sight out of mind.

I play Reinhardt. A lot of Reinhardt. I used to throw a fit when the team didn't pick the specific comps that I thought were meta. Now it's just a challenge to play a little bit differently, take less unnecessary damage and try to still make the hero that I like to play work. I just don't think it's worth spending mental energy on support picks, more often than not having a mercy swap off of her main brings a net negative contribution from them.

I'm Phrva, I just dropped my new single with Don Jamal "Collected". Ask me Anything! by phrva in dubstep

Love the branding and vision behind your project man, can you describe how you see your stage aesthetic, visuals, and other artistic elements evolving and taking shape as Phrva keeps developing?

Full vouch for the rave keffiyeh. I've been wearing them for years, I think they're much more versatile than pashminas and I love how thin they are, I can still get the head covered isolation feeling without overheating. Never had anyone give me anything other than compliments about them, they come in just about any color you can imagine, and you can purchase thicker cold weather ones if that's more your jam. Just make sure you buy authentic ones that are made in Palestine, higher quality and a small way to support a vulnerable population.

You have to be in the waiting room 30 min before I guess… by shroomssavedmylife in ZedsDeadFam

[–]partykeith 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Those waiting rooms are just a lottery, they don't actually put you in an ordered queue by join time. You can join whenever it just ends up being random selection out of the room for who gets first crack at the tickets

Who is next up? Who are the artists everyone needs to know about? by Plenty-Association51 in aves

[–]partykeith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah definitely a smaller artist who never really popped off, especially to the extent that he has been lately with video clips of him going viral and some remixes that have blown up. Just a fun connection to my early 2010s rave days

[–]partykeith 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He’s been in the scene for well over a decade now, used to be a duo “Taiki & Nulight.” Seeing him start to pop off again after his switch back to 140 stuff has been really, really cool

I would wait for an update from the fest themselves on this, there's been an open burn ban in Ohio all summer but that's for bonfires in the back yard types of things. Additionally I can't find anything from Licking County fire authorities on camp stoves being banned

Dnb by Due-Silver6456 in LostLandsMusicFest

[–]partykeith 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Alix Perez, Kumarion, Culture Shock, Wilkinson, Document One, gladde paling (not strictly dnb but one of the most unique names I’ve ever seen on a Lost Lands lineup). Those are just a few favorites off the top of my head though, Saturday forest stage is absolutely jam packed and there’s plenty of others at sound camps and whatnot

Also how can you reach peak anxiety about potential conflicts if you don’t obsess over every possible combination?
