    I kind of wish Reaper was a less ridiculous character... I like his gameplay and find the need for him to counter X thing pretty frequently but I feel like a jackass playing him.

    Overwatch

    The problem is the people who suck at Winston (like me) that go him to try and counter Widow and she just machine guns them down because they fuck up and it's pretty easy to gun him down still. It actually buys less space than a squishier flanker in some cases. Edit: As far as raging at...

    Overwatch

    Also keep in mind that if the enemy team is dedicating resources and time to stopping you from getting to Widow, you should STILL be getting close enough and annoying enough for her not to focus your team, plus whatever resources I just mentioned chasing you, buys your team tons of space...

    Keep in mind that Black Hole thingy isn't real CC. I got hit with it on a final push as Reaper last night mid-ult and all it did was make me move super erratically while I gunned down their team :P If the enemy team isn't offering up free damage or easy charge then Zarya just turns into a...

    I said Zenyatta fits into the support role :P The main difference being, Zenyatta is far more situational than Mercy or Lucio. Whereas Symmetra would never really be classified as filling your teams' support role no matter the situation. All the characters have a time and a place but some of...

    Overwatch

    There's a bunch of characters that shouldn't really be flagged in their role. Symmetra is NOT a support, D.Va isn't a tank, Zenyatta is actually close enough in certain situations to be in the support field but those situations are not that common.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (2016)

    I didn't see the 2014 one (because it looked terribad and everyone said it was terribad) but honestly I liked all the trailers I've seen for this. Feels way more like my memories. Who knows on those reviews. I'll wait for feedback from you guys :P

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I dunno if it was called a "panel", it was the whole cast of TNG (sans Stewart ;_doing a Q&A with Shatner as the host. Even Q popped in at some point. I think it may have been just a more expensive ticket but it was 2 years ago and I barely remember what I paid for last week. Also learned...

    League Of Legends

    That entire thing is just madness. I've never really been in support of solo Q and dynamic queue both existing (I think the complaints people had about 1 person going into pre-mades were vastly, preposterously overblown and the data seems to support that) but everything they put forward...

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Hulk Buster armor actually beating the Hulk is pretty significant. Anything stopping the Hulk actually. But as everyone else says... MCU != Marvel Comics. It's just like the stupid Spider-Man argument from the Civil War thread. It's like going to see Transformers 4 and complaining that they got...

    Star Trek Beyond (2016)

    Star Trek 6 is my favorite of the original movies, and even 2 (everyone else's favorite) didn't have that much action. Fuck, the shows themselves run 50ish minutes, and some are back-to-back 2-parters, that's a movie right there.

    Reinhart being able to pin D.Va suicide mech actually seems like the biggest deal out of that myths video. If you have the reaction time you can nullify the attempted big-play-clear-everyone-off-the-defense-point D.Va plays by just jumping on the grenade yourself.

    Overwatch

    Reinhart can additionally spin around so his shield is between him and his team and the bomb won't damage through it I believe, although the bomb isn't very large anyway. Some interesting tidbits in that Myths video... attaching things to props is kinda amusing but doubt it will ever mean...

    Overwatch

    Tracer really has nothing she can do vs. Reinhart either so it's a mutual disinterest agreement pretty much. It takes like 23 clips in his head from behind the shield to down him, it's so pointless. Even if he's the last enemy standing I'll just dart off and go set up my next opportunity to be a...

    It's a significantly different use case though. He doesn't feel like he's in a terribly over-powered spot right now, his abilities mostly make sense, but he is very strong in a lot more situations than some other characters (although some characters are insanely strong in their own 'niche'...

    Fallout 4

    I downloaded the Creation kit thinking I would start messing with it, and while it kind of resembles the FO:NV/3 GECK, it definitely isn't. Couldn't even figure out how to get started :P time for some reading and video watching again I guess.

    Overwatch

    Decent McCree's have definitely been the bane of my playing so far. Mainly Flashbang is stupidly against my method of sneaking around through side passages because you're always in close quarters. I think I spent ~5 minutes at less than 500 damage as Reaper because every time I tried to get...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    The Spider-Man argument is retarded. His powers were only inconsistent in this movie if you are referencing his collection of stats from the wiki, which is pointless as that hasn't been accurate for a single one of the MCU characters so far. In the movie world, it's 100% consistent. He's a...

    I definitely play this like I did TF2. I am a spy and trying to go around and behind the lines and cause havoc as basically any character. I don't even know wtf to do in the middle of a big fight :P

    Overwatch

    I've definitely been focusing on a few characters for now but eventually will dabble in all of them. Pharah and Tracer are my best so far, then Reaper/Honzo/Widow, then everybody else right now :P. Edit: I really want to be good with Genji but his Shurikens feel awful to use

    Yea I played like 4-5 matches solo tonight to have some fun and it was. I got a lot of medals and two plays of the game in those few games soooo maybe I'm biased :P

    It really irks me that they owned the casting so hard and continue to not make Star Trek with the characters. If the casting was shit it would be easier to tolerate.

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    Not to mention the level of gore in R-rated movies is often as unrealistic as the level of not-gore in these. There's like... 2 movies I've seen that did violence reasonably accurately and they weren't blockbusters by any means.

    I have gone to the KC Comicon for the three years I've lived here and it's the only convention I've been to. I'm normally extremely introverted but for some reason I love the comicon atmosphere.

    Federations do count towards victory according to what I've read. So that's the "diplomatic" victory. 4 decently powerful species in a Federation already control a huge chunk of space and probably have similar distaste for other races that you can work on annexing.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Uliana's is pretty great, yea. That and the generator builds for monks are my favorites out of all of Diablo, but I think they struggle a bit with higher GRs. They can both roflstomp TX all day long though. I have both of the One-Punch-Monk 1Handers as ancient and I still feel a bit weaker...

    I mean, I got it for $30 and have 6 hours in it from the 2 times I have had time to click "play" and I really really want to play more of it. I guess that is a bullet in a way :P It is true that it is only going to get better though from the looks of things. I have no ragrats!

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    Damnit. The vibe from the trailers was always Last-Stand-2-ish but I was hoping they were just showing the most overdramatic parts and hiding the quality. Last Stand is BvS level bad so I'm still hopeful this is marginally better because <3 X-Men but... damnit >.<

    As far as 2 goes, I would try to prioritize spreading your borders first for sure, but if there's a planet in the same system with great potential resources then no harm in grabbing it. Lot easier to protect too obviously. For 3, I don't know what the accepted strategy is (if there is one)...

    Frost nova + Coldlight is even gayer than Ice block + fireball fyi and beats more decks. Fireball + ice block loses to anything that heals or armors. Mech warper + Gorilla bot is also annoying as fuck. Biletide + Evolve is probably the most fun so far and throwing evolves out wildly to get heals...
