“Poke Slop”

Pun knew cyclops could still get him so he moved away, and cyclops still got him.

This is the problem with abilites like this, Punisher did NOT get outplayed, he got out kitted.

This clip is a perfect example power/ability creep

As a Sanji Fan, I feel like Oda is Failing Zoro

Of course zoro has his fan base, it might even be top 3 if not THE largest fan based, but even his fans believe Sanji is WRITTEN better.

Wano COULDVE been when we learned more about zoros family tree, his connection to Wano, ryuma, and how his family got to his home island in the east blue, WHILE ALSO tying in his growth and identity as a conqueror

But instead he aura farmed for a dozen chapters, got a new sword, and a girl.

THEN after he didn’t get the family backstory… ODA RELEASED ALL THE INFO IN AN SBS.

I don’t hate Wano, I just feel like zoros story was rushed, and that’s not what he need especially amid complaints that post timeskip zoro “has no personality and was reduced to corny one liners”.

Edit: the comments reminded me that everyone values different things in story telling, and more importantly, just like with luffy, zoros family tree isn’t what’s important to his story, “whats important is who he is now and who he will become” and that’s not tied to his family tree the same way sanjis growth is tied to his because Zoros story isn’t hindered or led by his family history, it’s led by his ambitions

It’d Be Cool To Get a Visual of What Exactly Gaban sees when he Analyzes Zoro and Sanji’s CoC

The YouTuber “Syv” brought this idea up that maybe zoros conqs has a messy flow with no direction, and maybe sanjis looks more like a weak flame with some sort of barrier around it.

I like the way they depicted Zoro tapping into his conqs in wano. I don’t know if the way they depicted it was right but it looked like he was struggling to wield it while using regular haki, then he reflected on his goals via flashback and started tapping into his conquerors haki which required less energy because it was more potent.

It kinda of reminded me of Naruto falling back on Karuna’s chakra when his ran out

Hopefully we get another visual like this in the anime(or manga)

Zoro Gets Conqs from a Sword: “That’s so cool and makes sense”. Sanji Unlocks Conqs Naturally: “That’s a plot hole, it must mean every strawhat will get it”

Come on, the bias is clear as day, lock in.

Every other conqs user had a big emotional moment to trigger their conqs “awakening”. We now get to see an internal monologue/personality shift of someone pre awakening and post awakening and it’s called a plot hole? No. Especially not when people noticed back in wank that he talked more “kingly” when his eyebrow switches and he goes “germa mode”.

Sanji getting conqs was well set up, but people ignored the signs because they focus on the simping and the all blue, and even use these as excuses as to why he shouldn’t have conqs. But let’s not forget why Roger turned up to god valley…. And the fact that whitebeard was a family man.

Sanji has Vinsmoke bloodline.

His parallel on Roger’s crew has conqs.

His stubbornness has been spoken about multiple times in the story.

His self deprication thats holding him back was referenced all the way back in baratie.

Sanjis battle of accepting himself was introduced all the way back in whole cake where we were given his back story and family introduction. The battle of accepting himself continued in wano where it SHOWED he was afraid of what he could become.

And now in elbaph he has a chance to LITERALLY face his nightmare(Killinghams devil fruit) whether that be his family, or an evil him, and ascend to the next level.

Side note: I find it interesting how much evidence of Sanji getting conqs resurfaces after it’s confirmed he’ll get it. Sanji haters must’ve been working overtime to cover up the evidence.

Edit: I don’t mean to discredit zoros conq introduction, my wording downplays the legitimacy of his upgrade in an attempt to strengthen the argument for Sanji, could’ve worded it better

I’m Not Saying The New Zaza Guy Is Right, but I Think Both Zaza situations could be prevented by BALANCING THE FUCKING GAME

I’m sure they ran all the analytic and they’re probably maxing out the amount of money they can make off low elo, skins, and tournaments alike but bro…

  1. Every tournament ever is always a triple support fest. There are plenty of options to fix that: one of my favorites being DECREASING ult charge time if 3 or more of any role is on a team.

  2. We can all agree whatever the guys name should’ve played who would make the team win BUT, he had a point in saying ultron is a snooze fest, and it sucks that he got invited to a tournament to spend hours playing something he doesn’t want to play

And that’s why I bring up balancing, the sentiment of “I’m forced to spend time on a boring character because the meta demands it” is very common, and a good way to fix that is to:

Rework kits

Add new abilities to old characters to make them viable in this powercrept state of the game: this includes movement abilities

And nerf what needs to be nerfed. Include PICK RATE in the reason for nerfs(if a broken character is played every game, their win rate is more likely to be less than 50% because: one is always losing, and because people who aren’t good at the game in general pick them up expecting an easy win, then lose

Again, the guy obviously should’ve played uktron or mantis or whatever comp was best for the team, BUT, if the characters were more balanced, he could actually get to choose someone he likes instead of being forced onto ultron who IS boring af

Are B hops supposed to be Harder on Console or is it a skill diff?

I can only get like 2 hops and they seem to hop so far on PC sometimes getting from spawn to the point. I only hop far once in a blue moon.

I’m assuming it’s because they can bind jump to scroll wheel maybe?

We’re Probably In For Another 4-5 Seasons of Poke Meta

Sucks, but hopefully Nightcrawler drops soon as a duelist. The rest is a rant:

So many seasons of poke, we get 1 season where dive feels good again and they add hitscan moonknight right after.

As much as people complain about dive, I still feel like divers are the minority, and BECAUSE of that, our complaints are easy to ignore and treat as signs of entitlement.

The game is so OBVIOUSLY catered to poke and supports. Zhiyong LITERALLY SAID he wanted poke to counter dive….

And as for supports, compare season 1 supports to now, they’re literally Thanos(by numbers and abilities), the only thing weaker about them is their ult gain. But everything else especially new character releases, are designed to counter dive.

And the worst part, I’m only just now finding out that in other games healing DOES NOT outperform damage… what a thought lmaoooo, and not only that, but poke in this game is OBJECTIVELY overpowered since they have the range advantage AND STUNS, AND MOVEMENT ABILITES.

But again no one likes to play against dive so every dive(especially DPS) just has to call it a skill gap and deal with it.

People hate dive I get it, but it sucks that every diver is destined to be nerfed to be aggressively MID. Our Pheonix/hela was daredevil, and I have a feeling his nerfs aren’t over

But cyclops, he’ll keep his ricochet shot that glitches and takes 120 damage when he can’t see you or even know you’re coming

Side Note: Cap and DD aren’t problematic. The reason they’re both considered S tier is because they’re the most viable dive, theyre barely A tier

Balanced Buff Idea

BP can land back on walls

Hp reduced from 275 to 250, but shield gain on reset increased from 25/dash to 40/dash with an upper limit of 125 overhealth.

(After a SDSD, you’ll have 330 HP instead of 325) and your maximum health is now 375 instead of 350)

New low damage ability, pounce:
Only usable with dash on cooldown. You pounce on the target(have to land it) granting 100 overhealth and 25% dmg reduction and each claw strike lowers the dash cooldown by 0.5 seconds.

The Loop stays the same but in exchange for less health, you’re rewarded more for landing dashes. And u can use the pounce to defend yourself if chased after a missed dash, or to start an engage earlier.

PS: this doesn’t negate earthbound, but if u can escape the diameter of it, the odds of survival are 1000% higher

Come Join Us In D Teir

I want to start off by saying, I’m not a troll.

I’m gonna be completely real, the nerfs aren’t over. She’s a dive hero, it doesn’t matter how she “feels to play” it matters if supports find her annoying or not.

And because the invisibility and I frame move were untouched, they’re probably gonna nerf that too.

BUT THE BRIGHT SIDE IS… WE HAVE OPEN SPOTS IN D TEIR

Personally, think they should revert all the nerfs and put a 4-5 sec cooldown on the shop. And a 5-6 sec cooldown for the I frame move and call it a day.

P.S. I’m not a black cat MAIN, but I feel like ive played her and against her long enough to know that these nerfs did nothing to tone down how “uninteractive/annoying” she is to try to fight.

“ The Adventures of Diemne” is a DanMachi reference

This book is the favorite of Elfie’s. It looks to be about a man named diemne that looks an awful lot like Finn.

In DanMachi, Finn Diemne looks exactly like finn from Wistoria. And seeing as they share the same creator, it’s probably a reference.
