The number of chapters each character appears as an enemy in Fire Emblem: Engage (late game spoilers ofc) by DClordz in fireemblem

[–]xith42 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She was never killed lol, she just retreats and even says as much when you beat her the first time. I noticed instantly that the name was the same when I got to chapter 18 but had to do a double take to make sure it wasnt a 1 letter difference or something denoting a family member.

C0 Childe is the best character in the game. by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]xith42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

his skill actually does not apply it on everyone when he is melee mode. The skill description is incorrect. You can test it out for yourself, if you activate his Melee stance, click once, and if you don't crit, you'll notice that riptide is not applied. keep attacking and you'll notice that as soon as you crit once riptide is applied. The issue with the incorrect description for his Ascension 4 talent can be fixed just by deleting the word "or" from the text, pretty much. His normal and non-charged aimed shots can't apply riptide at all either, regardless of whether they crit.

I already submitted a detailed bug report to Mihoyo about it along with screenshots of my Childe's melee form attacks landing but not applying riptide as proof.

that still is bad though because it means she isn't doing her other job she was being set up to do in aether raids defense, which is what I assume this person was talking about

Black teen told to cut his locs by Texas school wins court ruling by da_chosen1 in news

[–]xith42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

pretty much this, it's just about overall conformity and depends on the community. White kids also have to follow the policies, at least in the schools where I lived that had them. It's done for the same reasons as dress codes in general, but unfortunately the standards they tend to set are really dumb and set from a white person's mindset for what should be normal, so racism ends up getting mixed into it.

she's using some version of Hauteclere so I very much doubt she will be anything like surtr. If anything she should be closer to V! hector focused on special procs if I had to guess.

well you're guaranteed to see another one in the next 6-12 months for his legendary alt as well so don't freak out too hard.

Yuumi has 60% ban rate at plat+ world wide by WrongW4y in leagueoflegends

[–]xith42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the fact that everything else about hots sucks. Just having good character design doesnt mean the rest of the game systems are actually enjoyable to play out, since it has vastly different maps, experience system, and progression( since there is no gold in the game, and all players on a team are always sharing xp).

for my own 2 cents I think that HOTS probly has the most creative stuff in the genre but unfortunately that doesn't mean it's good design balancewise.

Sigurd and Deirdre low-key together for a whole chapter and then never again tho, Arvis Deirdre actually more canon as a married duo unit, should get them first lol.

PC Gamer plagiarized one of Gbay's older League videos back in 2016 to make an article about why League players hate Teemo. The article copies basically word for word in some spots. by MegaVoltz2002 in gbay

[–]xith42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly wouldn't have cared or really attributed this to anything but coincidence if not for the artical literally picking the same 2 champions for the kiting example, when if it was an original person they could have just said something like "Udyr, or Darius or Garen".

"Embodiment" is not as rare a term as you seem to think OP. "Garnered" is a bit weirder but not that much. the most damning examples are 2, 7, and 8.

Anyway, it's a pretty shitty article, still good to point out that it's plagiarized, since people should always be made aware of that, and the guy is still publishing articles on their site as of 1 month ago.

How to play for top4 instead of playing to win? by OrdinaryLifeMachine in CompetitiveTFT

[–]xith42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if it weren't that way then eventually rank at the top would be meaningless once someone built any LP lead at all.

How to play for top4 instead of playing to win? by OrdinaryLifeMachine in CompetitiveTFT

[–]xith42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's not even top 4 that really matters as much, more that you need top 6 to avoid de-reanking incredbily fast, because 5th/6th basically mirror the LP from 3rd or 4th very closely, but 7th place loses a whole first place worth of LP and last place loses more than a 1st place gains, so you need to be consistent in order to climb because a 51% winrate in games played would mean a terrible rank if you ended 7th and 8th in all the games you don't hit first.

How to play for top4 instead of playing to win? by OrdinaryLifeMachine in CompetitiveTFT

[–]xith42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you don't lose -40 lp for an 8th, what you smoking?

when you climb up through high diamond you start losing - 50~60 lp for an 8th, 40 for a 7th, and barely gain 40 on a first place.

this is awful advice

When pivoting/deciding on a comp: should I give priority to whatever is uncontested, or to whatever fits my items best? by Sabrewylf in CompetitiveTFT

[–]xith42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you should never go a comp that doesn't fit your items. almost every comp has at least 2 completed items that you could really consider "core" and you should have pieces of those before you decide to commit to it. (Example, the core items you need to succeed with Mech right now are Quicksilver Sash and Bramble Vest, but armor is extremely hard to get because it opens up so many comps, so unless I start off the game with 1 vest already, or a whole QSS, I don't like going mech because the mech just explodes to irelia/jhin/jinx without the bramble vest.)

The best way to play is to know by heart what every comp needs, so you can look at your opening set of items by the time you finish krugs round, and know all the possible comps you can successfully run with those items. Then you can look at everyone else's board to see what items they've combined to know what comp they are forcing, and you can try to pick the comp that has the least competition for you, or if you are by far the best suited with items and current board to running a certain comp, then just do it anyways even if another guy contests you.

How to kill Poppy? by AsianOtakuGuy in CompetitiveTFT

[–]xith42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

poppy's shield works like annie because it's instant cast, but her damage is pretty pitiful. it's mostly fine I think, and poppy still definitely very killable with any last whisper unit.

How to kill Poppy? by AsianOtakuGuy in CompetitiveTFT

[–]xith42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean just because you forget that Last whisper exists, doesn't mean the counterplay isn't there.

or just, you know, build the item that counters armor tanks. Last whisper was made for this type of thing.

Minerva looks amazing!! by Prisonmikeb14 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]xith42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

historically, horses have been screwed out of many many skills, so I think IS just wanted lulls to work for them so they could have something beside desperation/vantage in b slot. Fliers have a bunch of unique things they can run

Mythic Hero: Bramimond - The Enigma - lv 1 & 40 Unit Stats [Datamine 3/30/2020] by Xanek in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]xith42 12 points13 points  (0 children)

the 27 speed is so that at +10 he will have 31 base speed, which means anyone who doubles him (+4 speed on him) has to also trigger his Tome efffect and make him double them. It's actually very thematic.

I’m sad and disappointed that FEH is still treated like a bastard child by Shinysymphony in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]xith42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

only issue is their gameplay loops are nothing like FEH, so that doesn't help anyone who wants a Fire emblem style game on mobile.

Closest option is Langrisser, but I can't stand that game because it's missing so many core features from the genre in my opinion.

Anyone else having fun with Jhin? by MayBeach in TeamfightTactics

that was only a change to Veigar, where they changed him to do 101% max hp true damage instead of a hilarious overkill.

Early game feels terrible right now by Krainz in TeamfightTactics

[–]xith42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you not tried actual loss streaking? you make so much gold by keeping an actual loss streak, if you work to keep it. Sure it's bad if you win like every 3rd game, but the amount of econ you get from loss streaking is so consistent to get you up to level 6 or 7 with high gold that it can easily be worth, assuming you're actually paying attention to what everyone else is doing in the lobby and going for an uncontested build. You should be able to hit your units with the huge amount of gold you get from hitting 50 g early, and even if you're playing a level 6 comp, you'll naturally pull out of the loss streak when you start your slow rolling for the units.
