For what it's worth, when I used to play I thought you got credit as long as you hit an esper/limit damage tick when the boss's lifebar was depleted. So if you hit a long chain that killed a boss and the esper finished all its attacks before the lifebar was actually empty you didn't get credit even if it was involved in the fatal chain

Maybe I was wrong but I feel like every time I failed that was the reason

I'm a little late to the discussion but the ratings are not going to change any of WWE's strategy until the networks actually start taking issue with them.


Well I'm interested because they're getting dangerously close to the point where they should. At the rate of decline in the past few years they are gonna be below the USA network average in two or three years. And Fox should already care unless the WWE gets a huge viewership infusion entirely from moving to Fox which I'm skeptical of to be honest.

It's how they treat Roman

Everything else seemed inconsequential because you knew it was all just building to Roman being on top


Yeah. This could be it. For me, anyway, the way the storylines have come off as very telegraphed has definitely contributed to me being like "this shit is too fake" a lot more lately. I'd imagine you probably shed a lot of the more casual fans as these feelings start to build up. The way the product is framed definitely feels a lot more sterile than it has in a long time-- like you could easily skip months at a time and still have a general idea of what's happening because no meaningful risks are taken and things evolve at a glacial pace. I feel like it's gotten significantly worse recently in that regard.

Looking at the history, assuming this dude is right, the ratings started really taking a precipitous drop in 2014. 2016 to 2017 leveled out a bit but 2018 is looking to have another drop as bad as every other year since 2014.

We're definitely getting to the point where it's not going to be ahead of USA's typical stuff (keep in mind USA has fallen well below its peak-- it's already well below USA's lineup when it was actually relevant) by much at all

Fox must be kicking themselves about now. By the time it shows up on Fox it's possibly going to need to go up pretty substantially from USA ratings to be competitive. I wonder if Fox has an out if the ratings are crappy enough.

I don't really think Archuria is anything different. She just magnifies Saber's love for food at the expense of her other traits, mostly.

I don't think those lasers can hit him under any circumstance. The lasers are very scary looking. They don't profile as the type of attack he's going to facetank for fun. Even under time slow they're just not fast enough given the estimated time slow and speed of the base lasers. At best they're providing a distraction for him to need to avoid, which yeah, has some value, but yeah, just overall wear and tear in the match, not putting her away easily, Dante's not going to treat her as a total joke once she starts getting a fair share of hits in with her sword.

Well he already met Nero earlier in the game when he was a punk kid, and to him the only thing that has changed is he has that sword now.

Realistically, the issue is that it's kind of a catch-22

If 2B is a threat to win this match, Dante will at some point take her seriously due to her actions in the match.
If 2B is not a threat to win this match, Dante wins regardless.

So really it's not something to be exploited in any situation. I feel like you need a teamfighting situation or a very specific opponent for that personality "flaw" to realistically matter. It's just a straw to grasp at otherwise.

Like basically to exploit Dante's carefree attitude you have to

1. Carry yourself in a way that leaves Dante to believe you're not a particular threat
2. Be able to wreck Dante suddenly enough that he isn't able to "get serious"

A big problem with this write-up allowing his canon regen is 2 becomes a lot lot less viable for much of anyone, much less someone who you've got people who have played the game saying it's unlikely. 2B just seems a bit out of her depth here.

Yeah I dunno

Dante seems like he's going to win this one, to me. The 2B votes feel like wishful thinking more than anything. Like to me it feels you have to make Dante play like an idiot to lose this one. If he plays a smooth game, careful precision strikes, he's not flipping the time slow much-- the big thing is that 2B's self heal is entirely based on damage dealing whereas Dante just heals passively, and that I'm convinced that a Dante who isn't intentionally facetanking hits or tripping the time slow excessively isn't going to get hit all that much-- he may very well start the fight this way but... well... one of the people I trust to be informed and unbiased in this match in particular, KP, is skeptical of 2B's ability to burst Dante down, so I see this one going a good while and Dante eventually learning how to exploit 2B's gimmicks.

I think if 2B's trump cards were less dependent on the enemy's action or inability to avoid her stuff this one would be more debatable, but it's like... Dante is always healing, Dante can always flip slow time whenever he refills his gauge rather than needing to dodge an attack to do it, Dante just looks more impressive when the gimmicks aren't in play, etc etc.

Also keep in mind a full bar of quicksilver is around 15 seconds, which is over double 6, and I don't see 2B being able to dodge any attacks whatsoever while he has quicksilver and she doesn't especially if it starts in a surprise situation. So I mean even assuming he's aggressive with the quicksilver that could make a fairly decisive flip in how the fight goes just because of the longer duration, especially if he flips it towards the end of one of her uses.

Video is actually pretty useful. Gives you a decent idea of what the actual time slow is. Especially with youtube's 2x speed feature. I'd estimate it's somewhere between 2.5x-3x. You watch it in 2x and you see the robots are only moving a bit slower than they normally do. Would guess it's somewhere over half their normal speed (keep in mind they're kinda slow to begin with). 4x would be an overshoot I think.

I also don't think 3x speed death beams are in the realm of stuff that can hit Dante honestly (assuming they even get full benefits from the time slow-- if they're firing from external pods this isn't a given). Not if he's trying to dodge them, and they look very imposing enough that I feel like he would.

Honestly the big thing I'm feeling might tip this is I don't think Dante's going to quicksilver right away and instead just try and dodge normally as it's not really a goto technique of his historically and she's going to be time slowing frequently so he knows he can't just use it all the time. Now sure he'll takes some hits as a result but he can survive these. I think the moment he does flip the switch to Quicksilver he can really make it count and wreck 2B really hard due to the surprise factor.

Depends on how much speed up it actually gives her.

"Timehax" doesn't automatically make something unable to be dodged. A slow ass death beam in like a 2x time slow for example is still kinda slow. It also doesn't mean Dante needs to use Quicksilver to keep up well enough to not just get exploded depending on what the slow actually is.

Keep in mind Dante fights Geryon who gives him Quicksilver without him being able to use it and is able to at least not be blown up while the horse is time slowing, even if mustering offense is difficult.

You can pronounce it either way really. The way the word flows they sound pretty identical if you say it with an us or an is.

The problem is the "is -> "esu" approximation is much much closer than "us" -> "asu" which is a hackjob at best so it's significantly less offputting as an approximation in this particular word.

Whoever katakanaed exodus probably theorycrafted some hard and fast rule like you did too instead of actually saying the words
