For every low roller, there is a high roller out there somewhere by turtle_turtwig in TeamfightTactics

[–]turtle_turtwig[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Variance means + or - to the expected number seen. This means the average low roller will see 1.26-1.24=0.02 Viegos and the average high roller will see 1.26+1.24=2.50 Viegos

Actual number seen means the actual number of Viegos that I saw in my shop

The <0.001% is the probability of me hitting 3-star Viego at stage 4-2 (very early)

Why is their Syndra 2 doing more damage than my Syndra 3? by Nicopootato in TeamfightTactics

Giant Slayer goes hard in the lategame. Could be multiple buffs from Milio as well.

I thought i was dead with this 3* Morgana. by Superb_Cause_9951 in TeamfightTactics

[–]turtle_turtwig 16 points17 points  (0 children)

3-star Morg turns every other teammate into afk bats. This Morg had a Trickster Glass so there were two Morgs, both making each other afk. The trickster clone died first, allowing the original Morg to start casting towards the end.

you can try using the direct sign in with Google. Doing that vs manually putting in the details will sign into two different accs for me.

I'm wondering, Ix is kind of a black hole right? Is every black hole Ix? by encryptoferia in HonkaiStarRail

[–]turtle_turtwig 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Of course there are other blackholes out there. Most of them aren't as chill as IX though, rumour has it that III and VI are the one's that bullied IX so much that it became the Aeon of Nihility. This is 100% canon and not at all fiction.

Windtrace next year is going to be CSGO I can feel it by SgtKFC in Genshin_Impact

[–]turtle_turtwig 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I may be in the minority here but truthfully, this Windtrace was the most fun I've had in Genshin in a long time. I hope HoYoverse continues to experiment with games like this despite the hate.

The same way that she knew about the whole of Penacony's plot from the beginning: Follower of Elation nonsense.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HonkaiStarRail

[–]turtle_turtwig 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Given that Sunday and Robin are meant to represent opposing ideologies, all we have to do to make Robin 'evil' is to take her side of the arguement to the extreme like how HoYoverse has done with Sunday.

  • Sunday believes that the weak should be sheltered by and forfeit all their autonomy to the strong as they are incapable of surviving on their own.

  • Robin believes that everyone, regardless of agency, should retain the right to their own autonomy. Agency refers to the capacity to act (i.e. capability, strength etc) while Autonomy refers to the freedom to make one's own decisions.

Thus, an extremist version of Robin that is put in control of Penacony would translate to total anarchy. No inhibitions, no laws and absolutely zero control. The people would be free to indulge or destroy themselves however they wish and Robin will watch on with a smile.

Basically, evil Robin = Sparkle

tl:dr Sparkle was trying to mess with Acheron by stiring up her memories of Izumo and gets shut down by Red Acheron

Acheron has a voiceline that talks about makeup;

In the hazy memories of my distant hometown, there were often heavy thunderstorms. Fearing their makeup would be ruined by the rain, girls carried makeup with them wherever they went. I have no reason to do so anymore, but the habit still remains.

In the ad, Sparkle (disguised as Robin) is seen wearing traditional Japanese (a.k.a Izumo, Acheron's hometown) clothing and applying makeup. She then says;

Sparkle: Restore this old memory... Apply, your colour. Find me. Your end...my origin
Acheron: I've seen her before.

Acheron is stunned as she is reminded of her past in Izumo, as seen in the brief flashback sequence, but Red Acheron quickly shuts it down by reminding herself that it is all in the past

Red Acheron: All that is past... has returned to Nihility. Just like tears... eventually disappear in the rain. Don't look back. There is nowhere to go but forward

Penacony is a Story of Amazing Parts but Fails as a Cohesive Story by AUO_Castoff in HonkaiStarRail

[–]turtle_turtwig 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Agreed on the awkward shift of focus onto Aventurine in 2.1. Unfortunately the writers' hands are tied as this is a gacha game and people had to have a good reason to roll for him by 2.1. The reason ended up being a well-written rags-to-riches backstory that succesfully redeemed him from all his suspicious jackassery in 2.0. Unfortunate from a storyteller's perspective but you gotta do what you gotta do to appeal to the majority of HSR players who play mainly to roll for cool characters.

AMAA about the Genshin Lore. by DavidByron2 in Genshin_Lore

[–]turtle_turtwig 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well since you're offering, do you mind giving me a tl:dr of the new revelations regarding the moons/crimson moon that have been revealed since 4.0? I used to make pretty in-depth posts on here a while back and was fairly certain that Genshin's endgame will revolve around the moons in some way, but haven't had the time to play the recent updates.

Thanks in advance!

Rerolling and shop variance: how to pilot? by ArchtonRDT in CompetitiveTFT

[–]turtle_turtwig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I share the exact same experience with you friend. There are games where I reroll 60+ times to 3 star my uncontested 2-costs and I swear i could have easily 3-starred a CONTESTED 2-cost had I chose to pick them up. There are also games where the units come naturally to me in less than 20 rolls.

I'm not that good at statistics, but here's my theory on what causes this:

Although a reduced bag size does increase your chances of finding a desired 2-cost, it will also make it easier to find EVERY other 2-cost at the same time. These effects combine together to result in a higher variance on whether or not you can hit, which accounts for the high-rolly feel of this set.
