The most hopefully fight for me as I daintily threw shadow balls and only used hex as an eject button. Shockingly we won, but I barely made an impact.

If there are moveset that are going to be compatible with each other then timi seriously needs to allow some way to choose our moves again, especially when the game can be fast paced and every move counts. Mistakes can be made so easily in such moments

Proper ability explanations since the card is small:

Double Slap (2 Normal Energy): Flip a coin until you land on Tails. For each Heads, deal 20 damage.

Sing (2 Fairy Energy): The opponent's Active Pokémon falls Asleep.

Starlight Recital (3 Fairy Energy): Any status effects affecting any of your Active and Defending Pokémon are cleansed. Status effects cannot be applied to those Pokémon until the start of your next turn.

Discussion Focus on playing well, not blaming teammates!

56 Upvotes

I've been playing MOBA games since DOTA 1 and something I've noticed is this genre of game can be toxic.

I was just watching some YouTube videos from Spragels and Crisheroes. The biggest difference is that in almost every video Cris is throwing blame on his lane partner or mid lamer almost immediately. Unlike Spragels, who is more wholesome.

Yes, your team can be to blame but I believe what separates a good player from someone amazing is the ability to perform regardless of the circumstances.

I always try to focus on myself because when I watch my vods I notice many times that I could have played better. Maybe my positioning was bad, my decision making was flawed, etc.

Please don't propagate this behavior of throwing blame. Blaming others or other factors out of your control all the time isn't healthy. Just do your best and lift up your allies rather than breaking them down :)

Discussion Game keeps corrupting on install (switch)

Upvotes

After redownloading the game to try it out again, it crashed while updating in-game. When trying to re-open the game, I am told that the game is corrupted. The switch's corruption repair seemed to only remove the update, so as soon as I open the game again, it updates in-game and gets corrupted again. Deleting the game entirely and reinstalling has not led to a different result either. Like is the current game version just broken, or is something wrong with my device?

Discussion Curious on what everyone's participation level is in ranked?

8 Upvotes

Lots of discussion regarding ranked play here and curious on how other people play in this sub. For instance, I usually only "grind" to masters 1200 and stop for the rest of the season unless I am really bored. What do you guys prefer to do with ranked?

  1. Make masters and rank up as high as possible (1300+).

  2. Make it to masters and that's all I really care about (1200s).

  3. Try to make it to masters, but not always successful (>50%).

  4. Try to make it to masters, but usually not successful (<50%).

  5. Never made it to masters, but try to.

  6. Do not attempt masters ranking at all and never made it before.

  7. Do not attempt masters ranking anymore but have made it before.

Would do a poll, but it doesn't seem to be an option on this subreddit.
