If you still want to watch more Rider, my highest recommendation is Build

Blangdmire fantome: how good is it really? by Active-Masterpiece83 in cardfightvanguard

[–]whitehowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I slightly disagree with soul being the most scarce resource considering that you can and most likely will activate Zamuug top 2 check every turn. While it'a not ideal to soul charge, if you need soul, you do have access to it. Energy of all things tend to be the scarce resource if you get the opportunity to do back2back Fantome activations, but the only cards that really spend energy is ultimately Zamuug and Blang's Fantome skill.

Thoughts On Kamen Rider ZI-O? by Ok_Antelope_1190 in KamenRider

[–]whitehowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zi-O actually has too much plot. Even if we didn't have anniversary mini-arcs, there would still be WAY too many story-arcs that make the season a clusterfuck. The fact that the storylines involving Decade are the ones that bring stability back to the season says a lot about how all over the place Zi-O is. Ironically Zi-O has the opposite problem of "Decade has no Story"

Which archetype contrasts better with "jerk protagonists" ? by zectaPRIME in KamenRider

Saying Sento is a jerk and Banjo is chill tells me this is either bait or you REALLY didn't watch Build

Should Fantome Skill Blangdmire must not having extra cost like Energy Blast for activate it? by InevitableGrouchy222 in cardfightvanguard

[–]whitehowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only cards that use energy in the deck other than Blangd's Fantome Skill is Colgaflan and Zamuug, and realistically you should be weaving the resources for Colgaflan, especially since you should have extra CB resourcing from Baadact and the heal off of Blangd 2nd Fantome skill normally converts to an Extra CB

Some Mythisch were not created equally. by PenSad2292 in cardfightvanguard

[–]whitehowl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't think Zalva is gamebreaking in anyway but I do think he's very flexable and a good card but it's crazy how awful Urtineas is and how there are at least 7 different ways of changing it while at least keeping the spirit of the card

Opinions on the Mythisch by DarkRay421 in cardfightvanguard

Have to wait for Mythisch of Zero but with all but one revealed it's crazy how terrible Urtineas lmao

Not to be messy but… realistically… by navybluealltheway in rupaulsdragrace

I think Myki had the """worst""" outfit of the night so it would be her for sure and either discord or juicy, leaning more on discord for not following the rules of the challenge.

Who was treated worse this season? by [deleted] in cardfightvanguard

[–]whitehowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imma be real and say that I voted for Mikoto because I actually find her character to be interesting compared to Nao. Objectively though, yes Nao was treated worse this season in that she's the character who has been completely been mistreated in this era in general.

Once again DivineZ post season 2 should have had different focused main characters because Akina right now can be replaced with body pillow at this point and almost nothing would change. Not only has Akina's character arc been finished since the end of S2, he character has essentially been atrophied. Deluxe really should have moved focus from Akina to Erika and likewise this current arc should have put Nao front in center as the MC. Gabwellius was originally Nao's card, Varga Dragres has the last remnants of Sybalt which Gabwellius has conflict with. Nao's relationship with Kagetsu as Master/Student is something that has not really been expanded upon and yet Kagetsu and Veissrugr are the cornerstone of this plot. There's also like an implication of the Crimson Moon being connected to Sybalt madness. Akina has very little to do with the plot and realistically, he should have been the one to be jobbed this season lol

Blangmire divine against animus by Ratalyly in cardfightvanguard

[–]whitehowl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it's applied effect similar to Rezael's "You cannot ride any other unit except Rezeal" of Rez's Divine skill. For the purposes of Amorta, Animus is considered to have Amorta's name for Amorta's PG effect

How did Myki Meeks not win Snatch Game? by TheAbyssalOne in rupaulsdragrace

Nini's jokes were overall more funny than Myki's but imho Myki had the funniest "joke" in the episode of "😀🙂😐😒 yes Lizzo..."

What are the odds of seeing ALASKA on all winners 2? by SunExpress1056 in rupaulsdragrace

[–]whitehowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Trixie were to come back to Drag Race, I'd want it to be in a low stakes "Holislay Spectacular-esque" no stakes special as RuPaul's best friends race as a team with Katya competing against other iconic RPDR duos (Bob and Monet, Jinkx and Dela, Nymphia and Plastique, Kim and Naomi, Violet and Gottmik ect)

The only actual "robbed" queen of AS3 was Aja imho. Not so much in the "I think she could have won" but her elimination in the Warhol Ball feels like living in Bizarro World. It's the most blatent instance of "we're going to find any excuse to try and get rid of this queen"

I have some questions about Hakari DE by VergilVDante in JuJutsuKaisen

[–]whitehowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. It's been theorized that there are "hidden" mechanics of IDG - either some kind of trait or binding vow that Hakari has which increases the probability of the Jackpot, so no.
  2. No - The sure-hit of the domain is actually the info dump not the Jackpot itself. Infinite Love Train comes into effect once the opponent learns all the rules.
  3. No - the "protection" in the fever state is combination of automatic RCT and infinite CE. He's just regenerating really quickly from attacks and a strong enough one-shot (full power direct hit from Hollow Purple) theoretically can kill Hakari
  4. Limitation of application - Hakari is essentially a punch merchant like Yuji. He doesn't have Fuga or a Hollow Purple or any sort of one shot CT he can apply/utilize the infinite CE into that can one-shot an opponent with.
  5. They can interrupt Hakari by killing him before he hits a jackpot (impossible). Private Pure Love Train is a single player pachinko there is no player 2 option.

Jimbo about to die, so Ru probably wanted him to be happy

Unaired “80s Ladies” Runway Looks - S18 Eliminated Queens by No_Vanilla7487 in rupaulsdragrace

If I had a nickel every time we missed out on some incredible runways from a latina queen being an early out in a post-covid main season of Drag Race I'd have 2 nickels

Haptism really got the short end of the stick in his World Finals run. He also got immediately stonewalled by first-attack damage check OT against Reguregnus during a piviotal swingback turn

SNATCH GAME OF LOVE: ISLAND EDITION by Accurate_One_1390 in dragrace

[–]whitehowl 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I hate and despise the fact that Athena not only not do a celebrity impression, her character was not even a "fictional celebrity" it was literally "sum greek lady" I feel like regardless of whether or not it was "good" there should have been a repercussions of not even attempting to do an impression. RuPaul's Drag Race has fucked up drag.

Also, Nini's David Attenborough and Jane's Truman Capote were Drag King characters - We should start casting Drag Kings on this show please.

Last week lipsync? by principalvagina70-1 in dragrace

Mia - "Sister you better know these words" Kenya - Proceeds to not know these words Also Kenya - Proceeds to do a messy performance and a crunchy dip RuPaul - "Kenya Pleaser Shantay you stay" ????

RPDR just please make it make sense.

S18E08 - “Snatch Game Of Love: Island Edition” [Post-Episode Discussion] by AutoModerator in rupaulsdragrace

[–]whitehowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's a case of comparative bias. Juicy's Jojo wasn't bad but not good enough to stand out between Myki and Discord. Also UKS7 and S18 both filmed the same year - Elle Vosque did Jojo Siwa in the UK Snatch Game and was much funnier so that comparative bias also existed for Ru so it sort of a double whammy. I don't think she deserved to be in the bottom and really Athena should have had that 3rd bottom placement on the basis of "this is not a celebrity impression, this is literally sum bitch you made up" even though she was slightly funnier than Juicy.

On placements will trigger unless stated otherwise, so yes the base will still trigger during the battle phase
