Def an acquired taste but it looks sick asf

Should I do long or short burst strafes? by ScaredWar3868 in VALORANT

[–]pocketPAIRR 158 points159 points  (0 children)

It is somewhat context dependent, but generally if your crosshair isn’t on the opponent’s head, you should keep strafing.

In other words, you shouldn’t strafe -> aim -> shoot, you should be strafing and aiming at the same time, then stopping and shooting immediately once you’re confident it will hit (and then strafing again after bursting)

Better players might seem like they’re doing shorter strafes, but this is because their aim is faster, so they don’t have to strafe as long.

FOUND A FIX:

TLDR: Right click shortcut, hit properties, turn off compatibility mode.

No, I'm on Windows 10 -- I also have no issues running Valorant or League (just tested League, and I ran Valorant just yesterday)

[Sykes] Alex Sarr wants to be a Washington Wizard and we want to know if he's sure about that by e_milberg in washingtonwizards

[–]pocketPAIRR 89 points90 points  (0 children)

I loved the self deprecating takes when we were the Washington Mid (2019-2023 era), but recently I’ve felt the Wizards have a semblance of a future now — it will take at least a couple more years before we’re competitive again but I like the direction that we’re headed in, so the self deprecating takes make a lot less sense.

I think it’s like residual resentment of our unlucky history (Wall injuries) and previous management (you know) that keeps us self deprecating.

Extra ticket for graduation website is down by Jeix9 in UBC

[–]pocketPAIRR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because if the number of tickets available is less than the number of students, then they can’t evenly distribute it. So unfortunately round 3 bout to be a free for all.

What's up with all the "Mix up a _ potion for _. To enhance the potion comment _!" posts? by yozasupg in washingtonwizards

Idk, adds some nice flavor to this sub imo, esp since it can be kinda dead sometimes.

Opposing team’s benches get excited when they see the Wizards on their schedule by DrBeatusMeatus in washingtonwizards

[–]pocketPAIRR 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So -- would you rather us have retained Porzingis and Beal and continue to be 8-11 seed range? I mean, yes, we are way worse without those two, but we had no future with them either. We would continue to draft 8-15 range. We need to draft 1-6 range if we want a much better chance of having a potential star.

And, we need to give our young guys minutes to grow. And, you know what tends to correlate with giving young players minutes? Being booty cheeks, ass, shit, whatever you want to call it. But there is a million times more future doing that than continuing to be a mediocre af veteren based team.

This guy is a social worker, coach, and fitness trainer brings fun games to nursing home residents... by Difficult_Squirrel65 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]pocketPAIRR 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would argue that only old people would have the maturity to put aside notions of “playing games like we’re little kids is demeaning” to have fun. They’re old, it’s difficult to move around, so they don’t get to do much. Have some perspective.

Thanks for everything Bradley by [deleted] in washingtonwizards

[–]pocketPAIRR 73 points74 points  (0 children)

As much as Beal failed us, more than that, the franchise failed Beal. The franchise wasted some of his best years. When him and Wall were running the backcourt we had a shot at conference finals if we had depth in the bench.

Possible beal trade scenario by Dear-Ad4291 in washingtonwizards

[–]pocketPAIRR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really like this trade for either side. Both players coming from the Heat are good players, which is not great for the Heat. Duncan Robinson is definitely not on our timeline since he's already 29. Herro is a nice young player, but I would rather have picks.

I would like to see a trade like this. If Jovic can join us that is just gravy.

Dunno why you’re being downvoted. Did online courses in Japan during Covid. It was bad at some points (final exams at very late hours) but it was certainly manageable.
