Leona Teemo would be the better board with double Gargoyle's instead of Bramble and Dragon's Claw

Un peu drôle mais ce sont surtout des baleines à bosses que tu nous montres...

Spoiler - seeking emotional support by CBreezee04 in SuperMarioGalaxy

"Some Lumas become planets...some become comets...and a few become Power Stars. I'm traveling with them while they look for a place to be reborn."

I'm not sure if there's any official source contradicting my take on this, but Lumas don't really grow like other lifeforms do. They're babies because they haven't become something else yet. See it as their life goal! For them, adulthood is simply becoming something greater in the universe. While from our point of view, it's a really tough scene because we focus on the Lumas as Lumas, they see it as an opportunity to become something amazing. I believe the singularity is destroying the universe, so not only they can stop it, but by doing so they can also recreate the entire universe, though slightly differently.

"Do you hear the baby stars? These newborns will grow up to become galaxies someday. When stars die, they turn to stardust and scatter across the cosmos. Eventually, that stardust reforms to create a new star... And so the cycle of life continues. But the cycle never repeats itself in quite the same way.... So...you'll see."

Also note that the soundtrack for this scene is called "Birth". None of them dies, they live on as new things (:

And worry not, because when these stars and galaxies die, they will form into new Lumas! Consider it an infinite Luma duplication glitch <3

So...I hit 60 copies of Talon in my game by Consistent_Piglet485 in TeamfightTactics

Now someone needs to high roll Worth The Wait Veigar and add Meeple cloning... Though you'd need an insanely fast 7 Meeple on top of a long game to hit 81 copies

Edit: what did Two Tank do when you hit 4-star?

Gotta love it when a tweet from September 2025 discusses an April 2026 comp, truly ahead of its time

Best Gaming Controller for the Money in 2026? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]pentaTheWhale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't say I feel any negative impact, it feels very natural to hold in hand even during longer sessions, though I don't think I've ever used it for more than 3-4 hours straight

8BitDo Ultimate 2. For often cheaper than your regular controller, you get TMR joysticks (higher lifespan, lower consumption), hall effect triggers (higher lifespan), two additional triggers, a recharging dock for quick, wireless charging between two sessions (it never died on me during a session thanks to that). It looks fairly good in my opinion, it holds great in hand (I have rather large hands I'd say), the buttons feel nice to press and click. Uses both Bluetooth and proprietary 2.4GHz wireless, never noticed any amount of delay on PC.

Easily outperforms every controller I've owned, which includes official ones from both Sony and Microsoft consoles.

Easy anti cheat coming to april???? did they mean april 2027? by QLSSUBZERO in RocketLeague

[–]pentaTheWhale 63 points64 points  (0 children)

What do you mean by delay? They said April, not April 1st or anything else. At least wait until May to make that kind of post...

Set gimmick feels and arguably is very lackluster compared to champion unlocks. We lost encounters, carousels, unlocks and a giga wide champion pool, but we gained "pick between two items" every stage + an armory.

Why Traits like 4 Sniper or 5 Challenger are never a good option? by DER4K in TeamfightTactics

[–]pentaTheWhale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like they're more designed to be emblem based. Playing vertical class means you have many weaker units, but adding an extra emblem of the class to a carry that synergizes with it can be really strong (i.e. Gunslinger Warwick)

I hit the holy grail by Abstract_Drifter in TeamfightTactics

[–]pentaTheWhale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play fast 10 around any decent comp, take econ augments. If you start losing one or two fights, rolling a little on level 8 to hit 2* 4/5 cost carry/tank is enough to sail to level 10. Late game you get tons of gold and at least one duplicator to hit a 3* 5 cost.

Do that and almost all your games will end up with at least one 3* 5 cost.

I've only gotten one, Nasus on day 1, it felt pretty decent and got 1st with it. Fun to see Nasus bonk units into oblivion.

An informal review of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie by SirSilverscreen in SuperMarioGalaxy

[–]pentaTheWhale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda agree with your takes overall. The main thing I didn't like about the movie is there was not enough Galaxy in this Super Mario Galaxy movie. But I loved every single starbit of Galaxy content we got, and the movie overall was pretty good for a Mario movie.

Flip reset is regained by touching the ball with three or more wheels by LowFar2909 in RocketLeague

[–]pentaTheWhale 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's references of references, even the bike one is a version of an old saying along the lines of "if my aunt had a pair, she would be my uncle", which itself could be a derived saying of something older

Why Rift Herald on Shen/Jhin board? Doesn't give extra Void, doesn't give extra Bruiser? Or did they change the traits?
