I am an avid gamer and have a decent understanding of what good pc specs are, eg. 50 series graphics card, 32gb of ram etc, but I don't really know what the best budget options are. My girlfriend wants to get more into gaming, but she mostly plays fallout and Skyrim and wants to play more settlement building games so she doesn't need anything top of the line. What is a good point to start at so we can get her a pc that does everything she needs, but isn't too expensive?

It feels like since M&K came to console there has been way more people leaving ranked games and way more people seem to be playing at a skill level below their rank. It could be a coincidence, but I feel like it is due to more console players playing in pc lobbies. I don't think all console players are bad or anything, but I do think that since it is generally a younger demographic, the player base as a whole is less mature and probably not as knowledgeable. I would really like a way for PC players to be able to turn off crossplay so we can choose whether or not we have to play with people on controller or just people who leave more often. Is there something I'm missing or is this actually a decent idea?

The Goyo and Kapkan combo is so fun to use and can get you some almost instant kills

I just won a match in ranked but when I got to the ranked screen at the end of the game it said I needed to play placement matches to receive ranked points. I'm about 30 matches in so I'm way past my placement matches so I'm a bit confused. The only think I can think of is both teams had a player leave so maybe it didn't count. If anyone has a clue what happened please let me know

Was thinking about how to use some trap ops lately and I was wondering if any of them would combo with volcán canisters like they do with pipes. I'm imagining a thorn or kapkan might be able to set them off and if so might be able to insta kill attackers basically anywhere on the map. So do any trap ops combo with Goyo like that?

Update: Kapkan and Goyo are an awesome combo
