    I'd argue tick rate has a bigger impact on low MMR / solo Q than coordinated play. In general coordinated play is about getting behind a Rein shield and executing. It isn't so much about popping corners trying to frag before they frag you.

    What was your dream growing up before life kicked you in the nuts/vag?

    My dad was an air traffic controller in the Navy so I had a brief stint of wanting to be a pilot as well flying Tomcats. But back then you basically had to be born with 20/20 vision to be considered. I'm sure now with lasik it isn't a requirement.

    For how disappointed I was with last night's GoT I thought this was the best episode of Silicon Valley this year. I was laughing out loud multiple times. I felt Gilfoyle in the coffee shop w/ the jacket was the best scene this season.

    The storylines are getting a bit cliche. Arya being able to do hardcore parkour days or weeks after getting her abdomen ripped open is a bit beyond belief. Dany showing up at the end is so fucking gay but I'm used to her storyline being so fucking gay. The BWB storyline w/ Hound being mostly...

    Alright after using RedFin for a bit more I'm liking how I can more easily see the overall perspective of the homes for sale in an area. Their list-view is far and above better than Zillow or Realtor. I also like when I search for a single family home it, for the most part, shows me single...

    I know so, so many people that were in my freshman CS classes wanting to develop video games but never wrote a line of code in their lives. The found out that they absolutely hate everything about development and swap majors. It was ungodly common.

    Hanzo has far more outplay capabilities than Widow for a variety of reasons. I don't disagree Hanzo rando headshots and scatters are frustrating but its not an apt comparison.

    This WM vs AWP comparison is beyond bad. AWP is about making sure you hit the 1 shot you're given because you're scoped down a very narrow hallway or doorway slit. With WM you are pumping shots left and right because you have a 100 foot sight line onto the objective.

    Yeah its hard to think that Sandor who was dying from a festering, infected wound would die in the middle ages where medical technology consisted of drinking herbs and praying to the 7. Its crazy to think Syrio would die armed with a wooden stick against a heavily armored knight brandishing a...

    I'm not sure where this myth comes from that WM is such a high skill character. The fact of the matter is 150 damage body shots is absurd and the 100% scope charge rate is too fast. You don't have to get the insta-frag to dictate the team fight. A simple Widow bodyshot + McCree bodyshot kills...

    I don't think Blizzard would design a character with the intention of blinding another character. Its basically the definition of anti-fun. If she does have a shrouding mechanic I assume that would be reserved for her ultimate. Blizzard has also said they're fairly against cloaked characters...

    I don't think the cancel actually saves much time at all. It does give a free melee so its worthwhile.

    Generally because people move predictably with the tire. You really should be flinging your mouse around like a crazy man when there are enemies in LOS of the tire instead of just driving it straight.

    She doesn't but the reason you probably feel that way is you miss fewer shots on her since she can't juke in the air. She's a slower target so she gets hit easier. Like how Roadhog doesn't "take more damage" but his hitbox is so massive its hard not to shoot him with everything you throw at him.

    Balon's plan was all about taking land in Westeros. Euron has a different plan. It stands to reason that Balon's plan wouldn't call for nearly the amount of ships as Euron's.

    I think it depends on how the general population thinks redesigning a UI is in the software world. They clearly have all the options already in their platform so it would be as simple as detecting your file type and setting appropriate defaults. I know it would be trivial and you know it would...

    Also re the "Junkrat dies during tire" thing. A smart habit to get into with Junkrat is to lay a mine at your feet and then Rip-Tire. That way if you're being assaulted right when you exit tire-mode you can just fly away. Probably the best habit to get into is to not tire where your flanks...

    Selling real estate is basically a scam so I wouldn't be shocked if realtors protect their jobs by making sure to never discuss by-owner homes. But now with so many people using Zillow you'd think the exposure for a by-owner would be decent at least.

    Kind of like Genji/76 you don't want to initiate with your ult. Wait for the other team to be distracted and then ult. Pharah is too easy to pick out of the sky if the opponents have nothing better to do than shoot you.

    DVa's ult zones the same as High Noon without any of the killing potential. It sucks. If anything it should be buffed so it doesn't take forever to explode.
