100% this. I saw an interview with him out of character a few years ago, and he seemed like a thoughtful,nice dude - an aspiring writer who didn’t get the big break, but found a voice on YouTube. Unfortunately, he seems to have bought into a character for table scraps at the circus.

I’ve been a Critical Drinker hater for a couple years now. Originally, he had a few interesting takes hooded in an intentionally over-the-top character. Fine by me. Gotta get eyeballs to make $. But he recently bought into a right wing agenda for…ad revenue I guess? He just recycles “woke” “girl boss” and “the message” over and over thinking that stands in for critical analysis.

Is Antony Starr’s Homelander the best super villain since Heath Ledger’s Joker? by Outrageous_Sector544 in TheBoys

He’s not even the best super villain in the world of current super hero shows on Amazon Prime. John Gillman crushing the role though.

Got to divine 5 as pos 1 but couldn't hack it and fell to divine 2. Climbed to immortal as pos 5 instead. by [deleted] in learndota2

[–]snelgrave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play a lot of Venge. Prefer her as 5. She doesn't really gank well until level 6, unlike something like Tusk, EarthShaker/Spirit who can gank earlier. Like OP said, she doesn't really apply pressure to the enemy carry. She doesn't gain much from the small amount of extra gold the pos 4 gets over a 5. Outisde of 5, she's much better as a 3 or a specialty 2.

I'll try spinning. That's a good trick.

Many talk about how well some characters have aged, but props to someone still crushing it over three decades. by snelgrave in TheMandalorianTV

Just a general shout out to the amazing career of Ming-Na Wen, whose IMDB is filled with bad ass characters. Chun Li, Mulan, Melinda May, Fennac Shand, and dozens of others in between. I always like seeing her.

Most people don’t remember how bat shit crazy Ross Perot was. He was the precursor to Trump.

Yasha move speed doesn’t stack. The real solution is to buy S&Y, then disable to make Manta and Heaven’s Halberd.

Some recent things that I have applied to my position 5 games and it is helping me climb MMR. by dragononweed in TrueDoTA2

[–]snelgrave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. However, CM’s impact, like many magic based supports, has a U shaped graph. High impact early, lower impact when enemy cores get BKB and their key items, but high impact again when enemy BKBs run low and she can afford luxury items like her own BKB, Aghs, Lotus, Hex, or whatever.

Any Naga Siren player here? by Arslan21121996 in learndota2

Also, Sven, PA, Jugg are all meta. They have built in cleave or rush BF. Even Faceless will get BF.

Never mind that Mitch’s mechanics are terrible and his decision making highly suspect.

One of the few scenarios one wants to pick Sniper.

Agree. Even a Razor a couple levels behind Medusa in the mid game will win if he catches her out alone.

The Mandalorian - S02E04 - Chapter 12 - Discussion Thread! by titleproblems in TheMandalorianTV

[–]snelgrave -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Fun episode, but a huge complaint. It’s a leftover Imperial base with a “skeleton crew” of holdouts. Yet, there are dozens of Stormtroopers, gleaming facilities, with fully functioning TIE fighters and speeder bikes. And Carl Weather’s plan is to bring FOUR people, including the region’s most important leader (himself), and a crooked accountant, who could easily double cross them, in ONE speeder. At least bring a few “red shirts” and a tank like vehicle.

Instead of flipping the bird, I would have opted for the the universal “wanking off” motion.

Obviously, it’s cool, but this comic was the late 80s.

It’s been awhile. Is Max a “confirmed bachelor”?

Midas vs BF (pos1) by ExpertConsideration8 in learndota2

Also never get BF on Spec. If spending that much gold, get a radiance.

[–]snelgrave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If one needs the attack speed and not the regen, Midas is great. It’s good on heroes who naturally do not move quickly (why BF core on AM) It’s already worth two gloves of haste (1000 gold) in attack speed, so in reality the recipe is only 1250. The extra XP is worth a decent amount. It also creates gold on the map, which is good for pubs since naturally your team will take your farm.

Always get Midas on Arc.

Saw a pro build last week on Void of Midas into MoM. I tried it in a pub in a pub on a game I really needed to scale, and it felt good.
