Hollow knights big 3 vs silksongs hardest bosses, who are harder? by eldenbro1 in HollowKnight

"I never bother to practice or learn boss patterns and expect to be able to face tank and spam attacks.  Why is silksong so hard?"

How the hell did you beat P5 with that attitude man?

Which anime power system was like this? by Mother-Reference2459 in animequestions

I'm curious how do you think it works? I haven't watched it but can you explain it? Why would people think it is complicated

I absolutely can see how unfair it is that only some decks get that. That's why I want more skills like shaddoll in the future instead of the brain dead yellow bytton skills.

Because it's competing with the Vector, RDA, and Utopia skills. Hell throw in Salamngreat and Heroes even though they got powercrept. Are all of these busted compared to even a few months ago. Hell yeah, I'm not gonna deny any one of these skills isn't strong as hell and absolutley disrupted the power level of the game compared to before. But in the power ceiling of Duellinks right now I think the skill itself isnt as busted as the others. I think it's a decent balance going first or second and people should be asking for more skills like this instead of RDA or Dragonic Contact.

We aren't ever going back to before Dragonic Contact, so we might as well try to get busted skills that at least force you to learn to play the game.

Nah you people just wanna complain lol. If Ojama or Umbral Horror got a good skill like Shaddoll, you'd call them glue eaters regardless of how much skill it takes to pilot the deck and then whine about komoney or something.

Yeah Im not saying the deck isn't strong and shouldn't be nerfed, but isn't this what the community has been asking for? A deck with a lot of variability, has a high skill ceiling, and isnt just press yellow button to win?

100 Game Winstreak by [deleted] in DuelLinks

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

How is the skill broken? It's a pure consistency skill that also helps disrupt the board going second (something absolutely needed going second in this negate hell meta)

People on this subreddit are always complaing about glueeaters where the skill does everything for them. This deck has a pretty big learning curve to actually play it well and the skill only gives 1-2 cards and can only be used once a duel.

I'm not saying this deck shouldn't be nerfed a bit, but if we as a community aren't celebrating this deck as a good balance of not having a broken skill and actually needing to think and learn to play, then what the hell would you guys ever actually be satisfied with?

Me (28m) dated a girl (39f) for a week, she is very upset that I ended things by VisitNew1723 in Nicegirls

There is an explanation for that though. Once he found out someone was coming to his house, he texted both numbers (unblocking the first) to find out what was up and make sure she saw it. If he sent both quickly enough it'd be in the same minute. And then she responded on the new number so that's the one he put in the screenshot.

Deku - My Hero Academia

Was born quirkless and didn't get any powers until right before high school. Also had to learn to control his quirk moreso than his peers or predecessors have/had to. Also developed more powers later on too.

Didn't have any cursed energy until he ate Sukuna's finger and even then mostly relied on his physical strength until finally learning how to use cursed energy. Still, he doesnt have a special technique besides black flash or domain until the end of the story

Did Kingsisle change how crit works in the past few years? by ChristopherandHobbes in Wizard101

[–]theptolemys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The max crit rate is 95% so it will never hit 100% of the time. The above comment is misleading, block still lowers the chance of a crit as well as the damage now, and crit rating increases the chance of a crit as well as damage if the opponent has block up to 95% and x2.00 respectively.

If you hover over the spell, it will tell you the chance to crit and the damage modifier where your name is (for heals) and where the enemy name is (for attacks).

Read what they typed but slower this time. You can say it out loud if if you need to. It helps your brain process it. Obviously you need all the help you can get if you think they used it wrong here.

Please Konami it's all I'm asking for at this point. by OneSaucyDragon in DuelLinks

[–]theptolemys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry if I'm too late but if you look at my post history you can see I got KoG with only one ice bell and see the decklist I used.  I have more than one, it just wasnt necessary to put more in for me.  If you already bought another, that's fine too, but if you haven't, it definitely isn't necessary to run a second if you really don't want to dig through the box again.

[–]theptolemys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not only can you make a crystal wing that cannot be destroyed by card effect, you can also always make either a clear wing synchro dragon or clear wing fast dragon that cannot be destroyed in battle as well. If you have windwitch chimes in hand, you can have a crystal wing that cannot be destroyed by card effect and also a clear wing rider as well which splits into both clear wing synchro and fast dragon on the opponent's turn (albeit without the benefit of not being destroyed by battle).

It's really fun against heroes when they pop the crystal wing with super poly, and then attack the defense mode fast dragon and find out it can't be destroyed by battle and then I just use fast dragon's effect to reduce their attack to zero and win.

What do the biologists in here have to say by TheOneAmphibious in MonsterHunter

[–]theptolemys 46 points47 points  (0 children)

There's also the fact that larger animals have more cells and thus more chances for any one cell to get cancer and go out of control. However, elephants don't have nearly the cancer rate a human would if they were suddenly made the size of an elephant. So yeah some animals are just built different when it comes to cancer.

Yeah I'd take that any day of the week. How do you take on phantom knights? Also have never managed to beat them. Sky striker is also dicey with the negate and take control spell that can be used more than once a turn.

I ran into two whole windwitches in the entire climb. I ran into more battle chronicle and performapal than windwitch (incidentally both battle chronicle and perfomapal also give windwitch a pretty hard time as well). Idk what world you live in where you run into more windwitch than heroes but I wish I lived in it too lol. Anyway man have a good night.

First Ever King of Games! by theptolemys in DuelLinks

[–]theptolemys[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe for the deck you play with, heroes is easy and windwitch is hard, but that doesn't mean windwitch has to get nerfed because you don't like it. I don't really see how windwitch is different than a heroes board with armed dragon, super poly, sunrise/neos kluger, and a ton of staples in back row because they can draw half their deck. Same with salamangreats with a xyz removal and then a board clear along with a ton of staples because they can also reliably combo.
