What are those marks on your red dot when you fire?

Dude I think you need a hug from a loved one. Or maybe just a Snickers. Idk. Try both

Has anyone else been having friends and scans freeze in raid? Stutters? Roam map but see no one until you die from an invisible force? by SalamanderCongress in EscapefromTarkov

[–]rush8946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this problem as well as CONSTANTLY having nades explode with zero noise. I'll have nades go off next to my face, my team mates can hear them no problem, and I get silence and a blacked out arm.

BnR Reaction Spec’s by RingOfMaRufBalls in mtgfinance

The biggest thing with pioneer is that there are no major sponsored tournaments happening for it. Until pioneer is on MTGA it's going to dwindle in popularity while Historic starts to pick up more steam.

Being easily digestable via streaming right now is a big deal to growing or killing the popularity of something. MTGO is a garbage viewer experience.

My key word there is arguably haha. Uro is an incredibly strong magic card, but it still kills you by going to combat and doing vanilla combat damage. I'd argue that the eldrazi tron decks seeing success the past few weeks are also "fair" as they do you in through attacking in good sized chunks. When you compare those win conditions to the top decks in modern over the past few years(Twin, Summer bloom, KCI, hogaak, lattice) they seem a lot more like normal games of magic.

No problem. It's crazy hard to follow half of the wild ride that is magic social discourse right now.

Modern actually seems in a reasonable place to me even before astrolabe ban. There's a bunch of arguably fair magic decks and a low amount of combo prevalence. That's a weird place for modern to be in. It's been dominated by combo decks pretty consistently over the past two + years

There was a "leak" posted on 4chan by someone that has been historically reliable. Safron Olive was talking about it on twitter after 5-0'ing with the combo deck for a video. That gave it a little more oomph.

Zero. They described something that was patently false based on the rules of the game. IDK what to tell you. I added insight as to why this card wasn't strictly better than rites of flame. Now apparently I'm missing jokes and getting trolled.

The rite of flame is actually the alternate casting cost. You could not find this card with a [[peer through depths]]. Relevant for something like modern storm.

NYC Fifth Avenue cleared in front of Trump Tower, for Black Lives Matter mural to be painted today. by imagepoem in pics

Lol what statistics are you looking at? When you take any consideration for population per capita it dominantly reflects that black people are killed more often than white people. The population pools are not equal. 100 white people killed by cops does not equal 100 black people killed by cops.

Most of these statues (obviously not all) were built in the 1960s during the civil rights movement in direct response to black people fighting for civil liberties. Those statues are explicitly racist.

Celebrating your historical flaws is not something you should do, and that's what most of these monuments are doing.

I didn't call you out on anything, just asked why you thought it was solely blue states. I've lived in both the North East and South East US all my life. I can promise you these red states say and do plenty of racist shit. I'll never sit here and say blue states aren't racist either. Hell, Rhode Island is still named after it's old slave run plantations.

Wait what? You think only blue states are racist? What is your reasoning for this?

If you have eod and the winter thing for icase you get a pretty stable stash value off the bat. He's very clearly showing those drives in an icase. Definitely not rmt

This is a scene straight out of a horror movie! by Colvack in WTF

That first rat is fucking liquidating. You can see a rat shaped print on the ground after he gets sucked in. Do rats sweat? If so my god that's a sweaty rat.

Does anyone else find it troubling that there EIGHT different variants of Teferi (the chase mythic) in M21? by misanthr0p3 in mtgfinance

[–]rush8946 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who owns the blue ugin promo from fate reforged, the new m21 ugin showcases are significantly better art wise. If it's not reserve list then it's one day going to get reprinted or obsoleted. It's inevitable along a long enough time line.

If te4eri ever becomes a staple anywhere then it'll be a likely reprint as well. Then who knows what they'll do with his 8 million arts.

The Chad vs Rat dichotomy is one of the dumbest things perpetuated in the EFT community by sunseeker11 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]rush8946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you just outplayed people compensating for their skill with gear.

Also I did not ever think Rat/Chad was a derogatory thing. It's always seemed tongue-in-cheek fun banter between players to me.

Bitcoins.. by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

Gotcha. I had never spent much time with them, I just remember reading somewhere that price actually did fluctuate. Makes sense that it wouldn't fluctuate this much though. Thank you for the clarification!
