    Barnett has tested positive at least four times, dating all the way back to 2001 when anti-doping was laughable compared to today's standards. Has he even revealed what he tested hot for? There's more to it than "tested positive" and "tested clean." Jones receiving little punishment makes...

    And he was financially penalized – he gave 30% of his purse to Rockhold, he wasn't eligible to win any performance bonuses (another $50,000+), and he couldn't win the interim belt ($100,00+). Khabib walks around at 200+ and cuts down to 155 to make weight. That doesn't happen on a whim. You...

    Hate on Dana White all you want, but he's a predictably simple guy. Romero stepped up to fight when he wasn't scheduled, missed weight by a little bit and dominated that fight and got a spectacular win. Dana isn't going to hold 3 pounds against the division's top contender. Romero had a chance...

    That fight was a load of shit. Dude grabbed the inside of the gloves and went for the eye gouge – neither of those things happens accidentally. My money is on Dana not ranting too hard, though. That shit is 100% on the fighter, then 100% on the ref for allowing it. UFC has a growing eye gouge...

    Weight cutting is the problem again. What a surprise? Romero lost out on $$ but as long as he wins he's next in line for the title shot so he's happy. Rockhold got more $$ and gets to fight a dude that spent 2 hours to cut half a pound so of course he's going to take the deal after milking the...

    Dungeon revamp in 2 weeks! I swore off doing DU luckies but pulled on this one anyway. Penelo LMR is my first double-white. I've her BSB and USB but haven't used her much as she doesn't help with speed runs, but this could change things.

    Middle heavyweight would be Stipe vs DC. Both those guys would run over everyone else in the division.

    I had the Machida fight 47-48 and there were a few iffy rounds - split decision was good, 49-46 was home cooking. I thought Anders won, but he didn't do enough convincing. Good fight by Machida, Anders should learn tons from this. Five rounds in Brazil against a legend and probably collected a...

    The stuff that's good on the FFT banner is insane, but they're all relics likely to recur on other banners. TG Cid's USB is great, but right now it's not going to enable anything you aren't already doing. I've looked at a lot of banners through the lens of "x relic is super good" without...

    Congrats on the pull! Welcome to Cloud USB world! Tactics banner is a trap for veterans, don't feel bad about skipping. It has 2 LMR's (Ramza and TG Cid) and 2 USB's (TG Cid and Marche), the rest is crap unless you still need shout.

    Yes and no. Right now, you could probably beat everything with 2* weapons. To continue on my FFRK analogy: pulling a Unique Soul Break for Cloud or Tidus or favorite_character_23 on day 1 will eventually see that weapon get powercreeped into oblivion, but that weapon is going to be pretty good...

    Some of the passives suck, some are very powerful. Some make good characters great, some are just bad on bad characters. Cloud's Ogrenix turns him in to a stunlocking champion, whereas Bartz's Chocoblade makes him a little better at brave attacking enemies after his third try. The stats work on...

    The 4* don't need imperil – their superior stats make them better, at least for magicite usage. An imperil can still come in handy (against an omni-resist or whatnot), but they're fairly safe to disregard. Unicorn and Wendigo are the main 3* to keep, the reset you can use to feed your 4* if...

    Midgarsormr down, consistently sub-30 with very little RNG involved. Ran Malaris through the EXP daily yesterday got her to 99, inherited a Salamander for the 8+5% crit damage boost. That concludes my chains. Isgebind sub-30 might be possible, but it'll take me another week to get King Bomb to...

    The League's success doesn't depend on the quality of athletes - plenty of college football teams are fun without being loaded with NFL talent. Just 8 teams concentrates the talent plenty. They won't have 8 Tom Bradys but there are plenty of QBs, skill players, kickers, and punters out there...

    Physical ninja wrecks water, dark, and (soon) earth. With the buff they'll be 7-hit with increased multipliers. Such good damage any SB is basically just a finsher. I think Edge's SSB2 shines for speedruns with buffing chains (e.g., Zack) but it fits well onto my 4* Earth team. Also, wind/fire...

    Waiting til Sundaily to level up my Maliris. Comment about one uber/broken DPS complemented by another strong DPS seems true. Not in a huge rush to get these all down since leveling up Magicite is a limiting factor. I can probably sub-30 Ice and Wind, then planning on pulling on the V banner...

    Probably not much. He's not any lighter than Stipe, just means he doesn't have to cut - same as Stipe, gets to eat and diet normally leading up to the fight without dehydrating himself. No point in putting on a lot of weight/muscle for a HW fight that he might have to work extra hard and cut...

    Congrats! For the 4* vs 3* magicite I think it will depend - King Bomb might crush Mom Bomb at level 65, but Marilith won't replace Salamander until level 80 because that's when the crit fix sets in. The offensive magicite give options that we didn't have before (e.g., Bomb King has Magic Boon...

    Yeah, with the quickcast from chain I'm not sure how much time that first BSB saves me, but it's sweet to have every action from Tidus be ~100k instantly. The first BSB does ~7k non-crit but everything besides the chase caps at instant 9,999's after that. You can totally equip Quina's hairpin -...

    That's why I give Conor a shot - he's got a puncher's chance, but Conor needs to stuff takedown after takedown. It's a great matchup and why Stipe's last fight was intriguing - will the striker win before he's exposed by a superior grappler, will superior power defeat superior endurance? Make...

    Tony has no chance in that fight. Conor needs to stuff takedowns and get a clean shot. If Khabib can land a takedown, it's going to go just like Barboza and Conor can only hope it's with 30 seconds left in the round not 4 minutes of ground and pound. Conor can win by knockout but he only gets...

    Yeah. Short turnaround from his last fight - why not skip camp, not train, and lose all your fitness when getting a title shot?

    R1 Mug Bloodlust on Vaan treated me well for awhile, but I don't bring him often anymore. The new dances kind of replace it if you need the debuff, but the buff aspect is nice. And SSS rocks.
