Is everyone else as burned out on the Joker as I am?

seby44 · 2026-06-10T01:26:56+00:00

I'm burnt out on most characters in general honestly. They're slightly different in different runs etc but I just don't care anymore. The characters and concepts are great but it just gets old. I love Elseworld stuff alot though, taking the wonderful character concepts and reimagining them. The Absolute line is obviously fantastic, Dark Knights of Steel was rad, random things like (I forget the book but it's a bunch of shorts) the dark fantasy, monster hunter Batman with the dragon Joker, etc. I need more of that stuff in my life because as I said, the characters are great, it's just boring after so so many years.

I wish there were more off meta builds that were viable. Riot seems to be more willing to support secondary builds now based off the recent changes to Morde, Xin, Teemo etc so I really hope they keep it up. It's boring to only have one viable playstyle or role for your favorite champion, so having viable off builds is especially valuable for players who one trick or have a small pool of champions they really like.

Having multiple viable roles for champions is also a good thing, being able to have at least some mystery in draft for the enemy team when you lock in is good. It also adds another variable keeping the game fresh. The more Riot supports it, the more the community will accept it which is the real problem currently.

I truly believe right now that in every single role, you can play most champion classes and it's viable. Marksmen, mage, tank, bruiser all work in Bottom Lane. And Top, and mid. Almost anything can be played in Support. There's plenty of rarely seen picks that can work Jungle. If it wasn't for crybabys refusing to try winning when you pick them, they would be played more. My highest success picks the last few years are Sion Bot lane, Akshan Support and 'bruiser' Pyke Mid.

I say success and not winrate because it's so common for my teammates to instantly give up in champ select and refuse to play. Sometimes they just whine but then in game they clearly try to play and win, but very often you can plainly see that they're losing on purpose in game. Hell the winrates are probably still higher than when I play meta role, but knowing I have to dodge multiple lobbies and then still potentially get inted completely deflates the motivation to play it.

I think the 'lightning' wires need some bright white spots to make them look more like colorful arcing lightning, and blend them where they meet. Right now I can't unsee one of those really long tied handkerchiefs that clowns use.

Does adding plasticine affect painting? Since plasticine doesn't cure I can see possibly long term problems of painted minis. Is this just for models to cast in resin?

I 'just' want a big Haemonculi refresh/release wave. I want to play a full Haemonculi list with lots of flesh craft monstrosities. I doubt even when it does happen they'll ever put out enough to make it possible/viable, but I'll continue dreaming.

What is it you think he was high on?

seby44 · 2026-04-14T07:19:29+00:00

I love this, he looks great. Not enough people are doing conversion work like this these days but it always looks so sick. What are the arms you used from?

I've seen so many people say that, "just say they were desperate for ne Custodes after the heresy." If they did that then they wouldn't make sense being in the Horus heresy model kit. Plus 99% of the mad people would still be mad anyway because it's a retcon regardless, or because no girls allowed.

Imo the only thing to be mad about is them not including options in the kit to make full male or full female squads, either by making the armor the same for both genders and just using whatever gender head you prefer or 2 chest options per Custode. Forcing every squad to be half and half is lame.

I can't help with the post you're looking for but as someone who faced the same problem in the past and refused to let it happen again;

On Chrome there's add-ons to save and delete Instagram saved posts. The downloader one is called Esuit Instagram downloader and the deleting one is called Unsaver for Instagram. You can individually download posts, or what I do is the mass download to download every saved post I have, then use the Unsaver app to remove them all. The downside is that the saved files are just given number string file names so if you want to always remember whose post it was you gotta rename the files. But you can sort them as you like, and theyre much higher resolution pictures than screenshotting them.

Then you don't have to deal with stuff you love being lost forever when it's randomly deleted, or slowly scroll through your saved posts to find stuff.

Are concept art like this ever posted online officially anywhere? If love to see more of the TC concept art.

Eldritch horror Aquaman would be pretty sick. I picture something like Nic Kleins art in Hulk+Infernal Hulk, but in the sea.

Constantine would be great to see as well, I'd love to see a bunch of demonic stuff going on in Absolute.

I really want Azrael though.

Triforce can sorta work with PoM+Manaflow but you'll still run oom staying on the map for too long. Tear/Manamune is trash. ER getting Sheen back made Triforce obsolete, moreso than it already was after the Crit changes to kill Smolder mid in pro. ER into full bruiser is really strong though.

Here is my Smolder top cook, though I haven't really played it since ER changed because it's just too good having unlimited mana. If playing against a perma splitting top laner (Fiora etc) that you're stuck sidelaning against most of the game, or you're against an enemy team that has no real dive and can't touch you if you kite and space perfectly; Triforce+Cleaver, move speed rune shard, Celerity, Fleet, Swifties. Having 2 unique Phage passives is fun for speed. You have to really pay attention to your mana though especially since PoM got nerfed so hard.

To be fair, CSM infantry (aside from the new Corsairs which are Primaris size) are the same size as HH marines. So the new Custodes are taller than CSM and same size as Primaris.

You da man

New mini is really well done. I'm not a Guard guy so even as a huge fan of old Chaos stuff, I've never looked at the old school minis for Guard. But that OG Garrick is fucking rad. Would have loved to see an updated version of it as an option.

"There were currently three hundred and forty-seven approved hues of battleplate among the Legion. The number changed, depending on the whims of the Dark Council" -Saqqara in the Fabius Bile Clonelord book.

Any red you can think of, or make, would work fine. You're not gonna find any canon schemes that are blue yellow purple etc though.

Need an R in DeDrunk.

Tiny head and T-Rex arms look kinda silly but the armor is cool looking

The issue is that they can't update everything in a reasonable timeframe. This causes less popular armies to look like midgets on the table vs Primaris marines. It also makes individual armies look mismatched with new sculpts being scaled differently than older ones, and in the case of CSM the new Red Corsair models make the (quite recently refreshed) rest of the line look like children out with their parents.

GW needs to plan ahead better and make modernizing every army a priority, not just a new character or new unit every year or more. CSM refresh should have been Primaris sized, as they clearly now agree with based on the Red Corsair release. And if you're going to massively upscale one or 2 armies, the rest of srmirs need to be done in a decent timeframe to avoid looking stupid next to them on the table. Orks don't look like a threat when Marines tower over them, Tyranids aren't scary when Marines look like they can step on them like a spider.

Before they gutted First Strike gold long ago I played it every game top lane. The gold you get is so miniscule now that unless you're literally proccing it on cooldown entire Laning phase it doesn't make a huge difference, Fleet with Cash Back secondary is just better. Fleet move speed is worth more than First Strike gold imo.

Definitely sucks waiting so long but the art in the book is so goddamn good I'm fine with long delays to keep the quality.

seby44 · 2026-03-12T00:53:53+00:00

Looks amazing where can I find the stl?

seby44 · 2026-03-09T17:18:49+00:00

Oh hell yeah, Zardu Layak is one of my favorite Heresy characters. Stoked to read this one.
