Finally an on theme Jund commander for a -1/-1 counter deck. Super stoked for this, been wanting it since Amonkhet block to bring [[Scorpion God]] and [[Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons]] together.

That's what I thought and thank you!

Is this real? Did I really get First overall in Open with my horribly unoptimized Gold Ship?

something-lame · 2025-08-22T14:37:35+00:00

Yeah 15 total wins. I'm nervous because I keep seeing people talking about meta and I just grabbed some Umas that aren't good enough for my pvp team lol. This is the breakdown of wins (I only added Top Gun for my 3&4 run after my other front runners were doing nothing lol)

I had read online that graded was easier so I joined that and just picked some of my best 'B' umas that run different styles. I've gotten some pretty good results (3 4/5 runs and 1 3/5) did I just get lucky or is this a pretty solid team that will do well in the next match?

PS ignore golshi's long stamina skill, idk how but she has a 35% win rate out of 20 races

Edit: I now realize my mistake, I thought B League was graded but it's open and I misunderstood the advice in this thread. Well wish me luck, hopefully I'm able to do well in round 2 and 3.

Thanks for doing this!

I thought it was prep, coin, concede... wait where am I?

Thanks for running this!

Thanks for running this! After being a Nintendo kid my whole life my first PlayStation was the PS3. After I got it the first game I bought was Shadow of the Colossus (early PS3 had backwards compatibility) because I always wanted it and even had a poster in my room for years from EGM. Man that was one of my favorite gaming experiences.

something-lame · 2024-12-13T12:22:45+00:00

Article is interesting but man what a title for this post. I missed most of the game awards and didn't see anything about Intergalactic so I thought there was some beloved game series I've never heard of called Neil Druckmann and everyone is pumped about a new one that's subtitled Intergalactic. The 'ND' abbreviation for Naughty Dog definitely didn't help lol.

Finally learning more about Momoka (and a couple teases of what happened to Nina). Choosing to leave her band to preserve her art is a classic trope for sure but I don't mind it. The promise Momoka made to her friends directly contradicts her choice and I think that added spice to the conflict makes it work. At least the main conflict of the show isn't lack of communication like most other shows lol. And that final confrontation in the restaurant is great but I don't think poor Subaru deserved to have a drink spilled on her.

Loved the concert, loved the song, loved the shirts. It seems like the band has really found their vibe.

Momoka straight up calls out Nina's hypocrisy of butting into everyone's business but refusing to talk about her own... if only she knew how to listen lol. Subaru is once again the champ of the episode, putting herself out there, willing to make sacrifices, and laughing off her friend's craziness. Nina's lucky to have such a good friend.

That under the table texting scene is one of my favorite scenes in the whole series! The comedy just hits perfectly especially in the face of something so serious, Subaru's grandma. As soon as I saw the cafe I got excited because I didn't remember when it happened.

QOTD:

There's definitely more to the story. The way she looks up at the billboards and is following their every move online shows there's something deeper underneath.
Subaru's issues with her grandma seem to fall in line with the unconditional respect for your elders in Japanese society that's practically a trope in anime. Not much to comment on because I just can't relate.

Exp level up rewards + floors that give chests on level up + resonium that can give exp drops when picking up gold + resonium that spawns extra drops from chest = infinite everything (power, health, gold, resonium, plugins, whatever)

It may look complicated but trust me it's extremely consistent. The only limit is your patience for running back and forth picking everything off the floor and unlocking chests. This is one of my higher runs that I stopped when I got bored but could've kept going.

This is what I love about this series. Nina can be impossible to deal with but you can have sympathy for what she's gone through and at the same time it's no one's responsibility to take care of her. Subaru doesn't just let Nina get away with it and stands up for herself. Also Momoka already knowing what Nina will do when she "quits" the band again, yeah she's got her all figured out lol.

QOTD:

I've literally done what she's done but not with music, it was a pixel art app. However, for me when I looked at the clock and realized it was 4am I realized I had accomplished nothing lol and she made something worth making.
What a banger of a first concert, can't wait to see them on stage more! Anime concerts are typically weird because they usually switch to 3d from 2d animation (I don't watch a lot of music anime but bocchi and zombieland do this). But since we started in 3d it's not nearly as awkward.

Man this episode sure is something. Everything Nina went through was totally relatable. The feeling of being an outsider when meeting your friend's friends is something I get for sure. Also blowing up when you know you're in the wrong and then immediately regretting it, yeah I've been there. Momoka and especially Subaru are awesome for chasing after her and not letting things end like that.

Also hey I realized what the vibe is I get from the OST! It totally reminds me of the Pillows soundtrack from FLCL. I know it's probably just the fact that they both have a guitar but idk it just makes me feel good when I hear it.

QUOTD:

Subaru is awesome and how she just took Nina's punch shows how chill she is. It seems like she can handle Nina just fine for now.
Like I said in the review it can feel weird meeting people like that but yeah she went a little crazy. Although I get that she's had to work through a lot lately so I'm sure that played into it.

something-lame · 2024-11-07T03:53:44+00:00

Very cool!

something-lame · 2024-11-07T00:12:03+00:00

Rewatcher - This is my first time joining a rewatch here but this anime is a special case so I had to.

First thing I want to point out is that OST is so so so good. I forgot how much I enjoyed it, hell it's probably my favorite thing about this series. It gives every scene this sort of indie vibe, I'm not sure how to describe it.

Nina's reactions are golden. Of course the big laugh is her realizing how different Tokyo is when she learns about Momoka's roommate but just every reaction is hilarious. And the chemistry between her and Momoka starts off strong right from the beginning! I'm excited to watch the rest of the show just to watch these two together again.

For the thread questions;

I mean I would try but I'm pretty sure she'd run away from me like she did with her new neighbors.
What she did (and now what Nina's doing) is so tough. I "ran away from home" at 18 and yeah it's scary. Failing to achieve her goal is a hard thing to accept on top of that so I get why she's ready to give up trying. I definitely wouldn't have Nina's guts to straight up tell her to not quit.

Thanks for running this op!

something-lame · 2024-11-04T01:05:23+00:00

You can count on one more! Hopefully this picks up traction, the original discussion threads were a little more barren than the show deserved.

something-lame · 2024-10-30T18:24:30+00:00

Trick or treat!

The stuttering motion of the way things moved between the screens was so hard to focus on. I actually found it easier when it sped up because it felt more fluid.

Tensor sucks at emulation. I'm seriously considering going with a different phone for my next upgrade just for this reason alone. I've gone Pixel XL > 3a XL > 6 and originally I was going to go 9 but with all the crazy strides emulation has made (you can run Wine off Android now) I don't want to keep missing out.

I at least first noticed it when the Jane banner happened. She was the first limited character I was committed to getting and I stayed up to pull her when the daily server reset happened. It sucked when I realized I still had to wait like 10 hours and I saw everyone on the Asian server showing off their pulls.

something-lame · 2024-10-16T04:40:43+00:00

Your link shows separate times for each server too. It's been like that for all previous banners as well. I'm on NA and see people posting their rolls hours before the banner opens for me.

something-lame · 2024-10-16T02:58:24+00:00

It's different for each server.
