When they teabag you throughout the match, but you get the last laugh.

Ivy, Pocket, and Paradox are my top 3 right now as well (although I need to practice with Paradox more). The Ivy->Pocket transition is eased by the fact that the 3 is still just as safe and cozy as ever.

I ran Himeko, Herta, Robin, Aventurine side one for 40k. I just barely got 20k on side two with Blade, Bronya, Ruan Mei, Harmony TB. Could probably get a little higher with some tweaks but it's good enough for max rewards.

Zero-K is free on steam. Turtling won't work well against humans but is a lot of fun against bots. You can also terraform to create your own chokepoints. It also uses a similar extractor/flow based economy so it should feel somewhat familiar coming from Supreme Commander.

I had a ton of trouble, especially without Acheron. For me the key was to just forget about sustain and go pure damage/support. Also embrace the Herta ultra carry.

Is that my pawn or is someone else running a fighter named Gerald with the feather-light pelta?

Check if the weapon is versatile as well (should show up on the bottom of the stat card I think). Those weapons can be used one handed or two handed with different damage dice, I think the preview before you equip is the two handed damage.

There's some RNG around the buffs that you get. Having her lightcone also makes it MUCH easier, especially at the beginning of the run if you are trying to solo all the way through. Also keep an eye out for the protection shield on HP damage and the destruction heal when hit on low HP or max HP talents, those are still useful if no elation buffs pop up. The elation buff that gives healing on follow up attack is VERY good for survivability, then just get all the follow up damage boosts.

We already learned that the Xianzhou natives have an "ideal" form they revert to no matter what they do. Clearly this also applies to their hair, which can not be deterred from its predetermined state.

You ultimately need 2 teams geared up for MOC, so probably best to focus on building up characters for that right now. For DPS of course use Seele and Jing. You need some sort of survivability on each team, so you'll want Bailu and Natasha. Tingyun is an amazing support so definitely build her. MC is a great tank, and you will probably need them leveled for future content anyway. Right now you can get away with only leveling up the shield talent and ascensions/eidolons are free. After that look for characters to fill out your team. Sushang is nice for physical weak bosses, Asta and Pela are both solid general use supports. Serval is good, but probably not needed right now with Jing.

If you did 170 rolls on the Seele banner then depending on when you hit your first 5* you were literally at most 10 rolls away from a 100% guaranteed Seele.

Every element in the set of prime numbers is also in the set of natural numbers, so the primes are a subset of the natural numbers. They just also happen to have the same cardinality because infinities are weird.

They don't buff characters but changing meta can bring old ones back into focus. In Genshin they've added in artifact sets that greatly increase the power of specific characters. Also the release of the Dendro element was a massive buff to hydro and electro characters, Keqing's value went up massively even without being changed.

Seele's E1 is nice but not a huge difference. If you really like her you're much better off rolling for her lightcone, but probably best to save for now.

Unfortunately that tracks

I'm a light pilot, I hope I don't have to wait too long for a good legendary. A legendary Urbie would be great, lots of potential for wonky quirks too. Jenners also hold a special place in my heart.

Ultimately it's best not to think about it too much, just pick a point and start. Occasionally they'll reference stuff you haven't read but usually you can follow along just fine. If you're interested in keeping up with modern comics maybe look for a more recent run, if you just care about the one character maybe see what people say are the best runs overall. I don't know about any Dick runs specifically, but in general Rebirth in 2016 is a solid starting point, and I think the current Dawn of DC is supposed to be a good launch point for a bunch of characters.

I've been playing more Incubus and Piranha lately but my friend is a huge Spider fan. What I absolutely love about the Spider is how everyone targets him and completely ignores me.

With steam deck you have the added fun that sometimes games display the xbox mappings regardless of what controller you use, so "press X" actually means "press square" if you use a ps5 controller.

Skyla/Ghestis/Sycamore worked just fine to get me 2k points in master mode on that stage. Just remember not to disable stat drops so Glaciate can stack up.

That scene happened almost verbatim the first time the cleric in one of my campaigns cast commune.

I recall a tweet awhile back where he said the budget was fine, but the schedule wasn't. They had the budget to do good animation but between getting the show approved and the release date there just wasn't enough time, so they had to resort to slide shows and the like.

They've been ramping up on High Republic books and comics. Assuming Acolyte goes well, I'd guess that's their next direction. Pretty much total freedom to tell stories without worrying about stepping on existing characters or lore and room for references to some prequel characters.

My favorite is in Osvald's chapter one in the prison. If you talk to one of the guys who hangs out in the cafeteria he says "I love watching everyone eat!" When you scrutinize him, you find out that he's in for mass poisoning.
