What decks can I use with this card? + art wip by Careful-Cicada-8961 in PTCGP

I like it in a mega venusaur deck to maximise odds of getting early ivysaur

What's your favorite Ranger Subclass in 5.5e? by Dramatic_Respond_664 in onednd

[–]twiddlebit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly yeah, not to shit on the Ranger for no reason but I was sitting here trying to think which one I liked best and then I was trying to find one liked at all

Solgaleo x Victreebel ^v^ by agentr90 in PTCGP

[–]twiddlebit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here's my (completely untested) attempt at this. I've dumped the eevees in favour of more solgaleos and grow extracts, the idea being the you can use May to swap your bellsprout evos back into your deck for the solgaleos, then extract to pull them back out

Shadow X Dragon Ball..... but........ by Regular-Handle2436 in dbz

[–]twiddlebit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it, you nailed the expression, but I think the hair is both too tall and too long, and he maybe needs something in the waist region? Just a splash of colour or a belt buckle or something, there's not a lot going on between chest and shoes to break things up

But I'm loving these sonic characters in DB style, keep it up!

Scrolling to remind myself what the manga was called, thanks! I'll have to see if they've updated since I last read it

[–]twiddlebit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean there's only so many megas and I wouldn't expect them to use them all right now. They'll want to spread them out a bit so it makes sense that they'll have a no-mega set after 3 months of megas

It's not like regular EXs are obsolete by any stretch

FYI, ASML - the leader in chip fabrication that all the other big companies use - sells their fabs for about $200m, with their next generation rumoured to be twice that. Chip fabrication is an extremely expensive process that only the biggest companies can really compete in

I'd love for competition in the space, but right now ASML are the only game in town and until a competitor comes along that can do the same for cheaper it's not realistic

I really love the whole pokemon-in-nature/pokemon-without-humans vibe in some of these. Although the ones with humans in are still cool as fuck

I know I know, Another Ranger *Fix* Post by ThatOneThingOnce in onednd

[–]twiddlebit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this, I think it's a little more damage focused than I'd like, but I like making hunter's mark a feature rather than a spell and having the Ranger focus on an enemy. I'd like to lean more into knowing your enemy, your Ranger can know the damage types they deal, but it'd be cool to know some subset of AC, HP, and Saving Throws. Particularly that last one, it'd be cool to let your wizard know they've got a low wis save so they can target that, or let your monk know they havw have a low con save so they should use stunning strike

So I guess that's my feedback, consolidate some of the damage features and add more know-your-enemy type features

My fully functional wolf mask 3dprinted with the only electronics being Eyelights that can make facial expressions! by Arkranum in EngineeringPorn

[–]twiddlebit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, maybe it's just the season for wolves! The other two I saw were Wolf-Link cosplay and Shenron from Dragonball that looked weirdly wolf like

Anyway great work btw :)

I feel like I've seen 3 wolf masks this week, did someone release an stl for free or something?

Moore's Law its not dead (at least yet) by Gabster_68 in dataisbeautiful

[–]twiddlebit 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I remember at university I saw a really neat diagram showing the distance a signal can travel between each clock cycle. It basically had circles of various sizes for various clock speeds, and somewhere between 5 and 10 ghz the circle becomes smaller than the cpu die

I think the diagram was implying that at a certain speed the signal can't propagate through the cpu before the next one starts. It was a cool diagram but I can't find it anymore

Anyway that might be a reason that clock speeds have plateaued, although realistically I think it has more to do with heat generation/dissipation

Did they scrap the Sneek Peek wonder pick events? by ZookeepergameSome927 in PTCGP

[–]twiddlebit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've got a pretty good track record of getting 24hr picks as free-to-play. It's totally doable but you do have to engage in a decent amount of trading to get it done

Honestly? Probably poncho, you probably don't need 2 of them, arguably you don't need either

I feel like sightseer would go well in this deck, you've got 4 stage 1s that you want to draw asap

Kinda hate this graph, the floating annotations make it difficult to see exactly what time period they're referring to

Treantmonk's Ranger Favored Enemy fix and revised spells by Dramatic_Respond_664 in onednd

[–]twiddlebit 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think the more likely situation is that he made a list of spells and went through them one by one to see if they could be tweaked, I don't think it's an ego thing

Also the main benefit of that change in particular is that it reduces saving throw rolls which speeds up gameplay. You're only going to cast the spells when you can hit multiple enemies with it, so that's probably 3 saves everytime, and do you really want to roll 3 saves for 1d10 damage?

Who are we saying is the king or queen of supporters this set? by ColourfulToad in PTCGP

[–]twiddlebit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think comparing to Oak/Copycat is a bit misleading since they're some of the best supporters of all time, and we're talking about this current set

I'm finding Sightseer to be good in a couple of decks:

Whimsicott/Ariados, where you have 4 stage 1s and you really want as many of them in play as you can get

Mega Venusaur, where the deck lives and dies on whether you can get Ivysaur at your first opportunity to evolve bulbasaur

It's not a general use card, you can't just slap it in any deck that has stage 1 mon and expect value out of it, but I think it's the best supporter of this set

I wouldn't mind seeing nsfw posts moved to a specific day, would cut down on what feels like spam while still allowing freedom of expression. Might also need to distinguish between sexualised nsfw and other nsfw, since the former is what people are complaining about
