Tracer vs. Cassidy with Mercy damage boost. Worth mentioning they have Torb too so his turrets also just add pressure on me for free.

I bought armor but he instantly bought the armor ignore and every interaction is 100 to 0 in one shot. Torb had armor packs and overhealth so I had to go overhealth reduction and the item where you do more damage when they have more HP than you, that’s all I could afford. It helped somewhat slightly but not nearly enough

Is there anything I can do against this? A tanky Tracer build or anything? Is it just mechanic diff? I just have to one clip Mercy or Cass?

At my job, a construction worker for the Google AI data centers came by. After some talk, I believe he said this is the 3rd building being built and they want 12 total. He said he does know that once it’s finished it’ll take up 47% of the energy in Indiana.

“And we’ll probably have to pay for it, I’m guessing”

“Yep”

He’s being paid an absolutely absurd amount of money lol. “Money’s evil” he said.

How plausible is what he’s saying and what do you guys think?

Zen's changes alone would be way more interactive and intuitive than anything we have in stadium. Zen healing with his primary?? Its so simple yet so good. Literally every single one of the Zen changes could be individual powers that completely change his kit in a more fun way than his current state.

Ana with a Jetpack?? Jetpack Cat with grenade launchers for an ult?? This is what stadium should've been. More wacky and fun kit changes. Im pretty sure Mei iceball is the most kit changing thing you can do in stadium since release. Let Cassidy dual wield, let Reaper ditch the shotguns and have a scythe. ANYTHING. Im genuinely shocked how fun these abilities are in this community gamemode and how stadium has nothing nearly as fun and intuitive.

After some trial and error. I've found that starting IE first genuinely does nothing for Samira. Even if I manage to get LDR, Shieldbow, and whatever else I need. The damage genuinely isn't there at all.
But when I start collector, the difference is immediately noticeable. Im pushing out tons more damage from start to finish of the game.

Why? Is the 12 lethality really THAT big? I personally don't view collector as that valuable of an item. My simple brain cant comprehend why this item makes Samira way more impactful than boosting crit damage. Is it truly just as simple as the 12 lethality?

May I be enlightened?

Hello, first time posting here. I'm a 21 year old amputee here, been one since 9 years old.

I don't know if this is the right place to talk about this but I feel as though I really have no where else to go ask. I have a below the knee amputation of my right leg - Basically the halfway point of my calf is gone. I do have a prosthetic but it only helps so much. All my life walking and standing has hurt. I can technically do everything a person with both limbs can, but doing it causes intense pain, hurting more with the intensity of the action.

The issue is my amputation "cut". The bone is practically poking out of my skin at the bottom. To my knowledge, most amputations have muscle, skin, or whatever cushion at the bottom of their cut, thus making it less painful. I don't have that, I have skin obviously but its not a very good cushion lol. My cut is anything but clean. Over the years growing up, me and my mom have gone to multiple doctors and asked what I can do about it. They all say that the cut is poorly done and that they should've just amputated above the knee. And that my only options are to amputate above the knee or continue living in pain as I am.

And while getting the amputation is probably the better option long term, Im very conflicted and hesitant about going through with it. I think I have.. sentimental attachment to my current state? I had to get the skin on my thighs lasered off and put on my wounded amputation so that it would heal properly, so now my thighs are pretty ugly. I had to relearn how to walk and go through physical therapy which was all very painful. At the age of nine. I'd have to relearn to walk again and I feel like I'd be losing out on alot of that motor function that I still have. I feel as though all of that would've been pointless if I got more amputated. And the big one is that I'm scared if it'll even fix my struggles. Like surely it would if the doctors advise for it right? But there's always that chance it doesn't make it less painful. I cannot hold jobs for long at all due to my pain. Recently I've had other issues with my intact leg due to issues with the amputated one. It feels like my future is very uncertain due to this and other things in my life.

I guess this was a big vent post. I want to see if I would qualify for disability checks, but I'm unsure if I would. Has anyone else had a similar dilemma like this?
