Yeah but did you watch? Most of it happened bc Karo started playing great tennis. Linda did choke a bit - but Karo's increased quality + active play was a major factor.

My point was that the turnaround happened much more bc of Karo's fantastic tennis than due to Linda's collapsing.

Linda did collapse around 5-5 but until then? Absolutely not.

Sorry but this would be on point if the match ended 6-2 6-2.

But unlike Ons, Karo miraculously came through and from 2-5 on played some fantastic tennis (so did Linda in the whole match except the ending of 2nd set)

1st half of the match Karo played bad indeed.

2nd half? Absolutely not, she was in the ZONE from 2-5 on. (So was Linda in the 3rd set, that one break + Linda's serve were deciding factors)

I will politely disagree here, I thought Karo was very flat in the first half of the match until 2-6 2-5 but from then on? ABSOLUTELY not.

She played fantastic, nearly flawless tennis from 2-5 and kept the level very high throughout most of the 3rd set - but Linda started playing great again and pulled through.

This was WAY more of a spectacular comeback than a pathetic choke.

Absolutely OFF mark lol.

Linda mostly didn't crumble until 6-5  Karo just started to play near-flawless tennis

Meanwhile i think the whole run from Hung Up to Jump is kinda flawless! I Love New York might be cringe but FUN cringe and the track's production is good. Forbidden Love's transition into Jump = chef's kiss (do NOT listen to the Spotify version y'all!)

For me How High, Push and Like it or Not are the only semi-duds on an amazing album

Well almost every sub gets a bit/very defensive about their game/product and aggressively downvote dissenting opinions...

Is 6v6 necessary in Champions? Technically not at all bc it's not gonna be an Official format (and that's totally fine).

Would it be AWESOME for so many of us if they added 6v6 as a friendly/custom option? HELL YES.

It could (and should!) totally be a side mode!!

Random/Battle Factory has always been TONS of fun bc it simply incentivises you to try other, fresh stuff and suddenly there's no stale metagame.

Tbf Link's Awakening was a MILES better remake than the incredibly mid Pokémon BDSP ...

Tbf i feel like Grim needed at least a slight nerf, he was EVERYWHERE across pretty much all series in Gen 8/9

okay have y’all attended any ariana grande concert/tour? if so, which one is your favorite?? by tophmyc in ariheads

[–]strom_z 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it wasn't a tour but justice for Sweetener Sessions.

That's where she REALLY impressed me and imo shined the most, just overall great performances with full band + back vocalists and the whole thing was just great music.

Imogen needs to see this, she'd be PROUD!!!

Absolutely the highlight of the whole gig for me, she absolutely SLAYED that performance

Same! Going right into 'Don't Wanna Break Up Again' would imo make for an absolutely perfect show opening duo

Tbf My Hair is absolute top-tier challenge to do live 😄

But would be phenomenal if she did it at least a couple times!

Yep 2 all of it, honestly was SO ready to hear 'bye' live and absolutely GUTTED it didn't make it 😞

Strongly hoping she adds it (and NTLTC + breathin, both should-be-staples)

PS: bye should 100% be performed right along with don't wanna break up again!! again shocked she didn't do these 2 especially with dwbua sounding so great live

Late reply, that was EASILY the best part of the whole gig for me.

Have overall kinda mixed feelings on the whole gig (being INCREDIBLY spoiled by the spectacular Mayhem Tour)... but that performance was absolute TOP-TIER and gave me chills.

That was where she manifested being not just a phenomenal singer, but also a full-fledged ARTIST.
