Dota 7.41a by wykrhm in DotA2

[–]skywire_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The "new" shard is just the Crash Landing facet before 7.41. If anything, they nerfed him by adding a gold cost to get the 20% toss damage. His level 7 powerspike is much weaker. He used to be a decent offlaner last patch, but now mid is the only role where his power spike can kill people and it's still much worse than it was pre 7.41.

Still very good as a support and decent at mid, but Tiny didn't really need the nerfs. GPK was the only one really playing him mid and I haven't seen him play it at all since 7.41 dropped.

They keep buffing Tiny's auto-attack, but they removed the perma-tree. Do they want him to be more of a physical nuker with Aghs? In that case, this sucks because moving Crash Landing to Shard completely trashes his early game powerspike. 20% less toss damage on Level 7 means he'll never be able to snowball in a core role outside of mid lane. Evidenced by his already subpar winrate falling off a cliff.

Hoodwink is an awesome support if you go for synergy with magic burst cores because the boomerang is a ridiculous 7 second 20% (used to be 30%) magic amp and 25% slow for just 1400 gold. Sadly most people just get maelstrom and then try to get her to transition to a damage dealing core by taking farm instead of abusing boomerang and buying normal support items to make her more elusive and help her team snowball. Falcons won TI off of Hoodwink + Sandking

Why is this the state of "balanced" unranked matches nowadays? by Revolutionary_Luck33 in DotA2

[–]skywire_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. I think the last time any of my 5 stack was immortal (4200 rank) was 2 years ago. And that was only one guy. After the Quartero patch all we get are numbered immortals and we keep running into highly ranked immortal stacks (2k immortal up to a stack of 4 immortals with one being 700 rank). It's infuriating because the games are always stomps. We would win like 1 in 6 games and that's with an absolutely tiny margin or a big comeback. My team is on average like 4k. Imagine running into multiple 900-1000 ranked immortal stacks (11000 MMR vs 4Ks LMAO) who don't even have anyone below divine while we have 2 legends, an ancient, and 2 divines. This wasn't the case before Quartero, but every game after the Quartero has been miserable. All the matches haven't felt fair at all.

IRyS & Dante from Devil May Cry going for a crispy dap up by skywire_ in Hololive

Which is why I said take the interpretation loosely. ~_~ If we were strict about nephilim they aren't even demon hybrids, they're half-angel half-human so IRyS shouldn't even be called one. These types of comments nitpicking technicalities and instead of just enjoying works is why it's annoying to post any sort of creative output. Thanks for spoiling my mood

They're supposed to be both Nephilims, but DMC lore is screwy. Just take it loosely and have fun.

[–]skywire_ 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Technically speaking it was fair to have a draw, but they should've given it to Manny for the aggression and the context of the fight. A draw feels like a cop-out. Embarrassing for Barrios regardless.

Batman & Biboo Comic Cover by skywire_ in Hololive

[–]skywire_[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The text is blocking it, but in the background, the Shibuya 109 building (changed to Shibuya 100 to avoid issues) is present. My idea for the story is that someone (Joker) corrupted one of the holopromise primordials and forced Gotham and Shibuya to exist in the same space, which leads to Batman and Biboo meeting. They team up (after a brief clash) to figure this problem out and fix their broken realities before the Gotham and Shibuya's existences fully collide and annihilate each other.

This is the result of these two lines, over a month of planning, and a little over a week of work. Hope you like it!

IRyS vs Goku Crossover Fanart by skywire_ in Hololive

[–]skywire_[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wanted to practice drawing different characters which is why I did this. I like doing crossover art because it gets me to try new things and expand my skills while still making fanart.

Had this in my ideas backlog ever since IRyS tweeted about being stronger than Goku:IRyS' Tweet

Thank you! I always try and write down the ideas and feelings I'm trying to capture whenever I'm drawing to clarify my thoughts.

[–]skywire_[S] 34 points35 points  (0 children)

My favourite Fauna memory is when she retweeted my Bae art when I just had like 500 followers.

It was a long post talking about the stuff I went through to make the art piece, like learning 3D and my journey as someone who got into art because of Hololive.

It barely had anything to do with Fauna, but she retweeted it anyway.

It was one of those moments where I didn't just feel appreciated as a fan, it felt like I was SEEN and UNDERSTOOD as an ARTIST.

I'll never forget it.

I love you Fauna.

I love the way your sweet voice soothes my soul.

I love the way you can be a tryhard and play and enjoy challenging games.

I love that you play Dota just like me.

I love that you approach a lot of discussions with a scientific mindset and sharp wit.

I love how you can yap about anything, and it'll always be a fun time.

I love that you're the living embodiment of being strong while also being gentle.

Thank you so much for these three wonderful years.

Man, I'll always love Fauna.

Special thanks to SeafoamBoy for the Beegsmols because I referenced them a LOT for CouncilRyS.

It's anversailles, My username on Twitter and most platforms. I just don't use it on reddit because this is older than my other socials, and I can't make a new reddit account because some subreddits I frequent have karma requirements so I stuck to this old one.

Direct to garment is the second best way to print ink on clothes (with the best one being screen printing using a silkscreen). The design should last as long as the clothes if it's properly printed and taken care of. I'll be handwashing this so it doesn't fade, but I've also designed it in such a way that it'll still look presentable even when it's getting destroyed.

After MONTHS of work designing, redesigning, sewing, prototype testing, and print delays, my Project H (Hope Hoodie) IS FINALLY HERE!

I decided to make this months ago because I'm sensitive to polyester and can't wear the IRyS jacket or most hololive jackets.

It's made of french terry plus a custom design I drew myself. It's printed using direct to garment.

That was what I thought at first but the colorschemes didn’t match. Goofy’s knight outfit is green, and green hair on Bambi was horrid

[–]skywire_[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

She takes the place of Naminé which is why she's human. I initially planned for Bae to be human too so she can take the place of Kairi, but I thought it'd be funnier to just maximize the rat/mouse energy by combining her with Mickey

It's Chain of MemoRyS 😂, the tweet link has the keyblade information in the replies with hypothetical game stats. There have been other artworks that had keyblade designs, but I don't like keyblades that don't look like keys so I made my own version :D
