I lied, I have one more high tier match cause I want a bit of data on an old character, for a change. Next one will be a low tier match though, taking suggestions for people you'd like to see!

The Doomslayer is as he appears in Doom 2016, equipped with all single player weapons and equipment, fully upgraded alongside his maxed out Praetor Suit, as well as the In-Flight Mobility, Equipment Power and Rich Get Richer runes, fully mastered. He may perform Glory Kills on opponents, which will not make him invulnerable, but will award health and ammo.

~VS~

Valla the Demon Hunter is as she appears in Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls, wielding dual Lianna's Wings crossbows. She has the skills Evasive Fire, Elemental Arrow, Shadow Power, Vault, Vengeance and Multishot, as well as the passives Steady Aim, Single Out and Hot Pursuit.

Terrain: The Void - A barren featureless landscape with no cover or anything to speak of. There is no obvious source of light, but visibility is clear and the terrain otherwise has similar gravity, atmosphere, etc to Earth. Teams start 100m from each other.

---

Normally I'd say a 6/week vs a 7/week is a strong mismatch, but I can't help but wonder if the Demon Hunter wasn't overupkeeped in M4. This seems like a good chance to debut a new entrant and put her to the test.


The consensus in Draft Mercs seemed to be that Demon Hunter was a trap, and I think some people wouldn't even give her credit as a 6.

I dig the idea of a stars of destiny merc in any case. Thing is you have such an imbalance in the power levels of the stars that it's actually a trap merc since I'm pretty sure you can actually solve the right 6 to pick most of the time.


So what if you just choose the 6 best ones and made a merc out of them?

The plot was garbage, the dialogue was garbage, and the characters were garbage, the pacing, art direction, save point allocation, crafting system, quests were all garbage.

This is the exact sort of thing libertarians have always been saying about regulations. They exist to make it so that it's harder for people to actually collect damages from big companies. So long as the company can prove that it did everything the government told it to do, they won't be held legally liable, even when their behavior clearly damages individuals.


I mean, in a hypothetical libertarian society, do you think that the casino should be liable for damages here?

Okay so I looked around. MWC seems to have gotten a usermap axe. His alts all got banned and his main is in purgatory, probably for a very long time once again. Only, unlike last time, he won't be making any alts.

No wonder there hasn't been much contention. MWC would have argued for days about this.


Wow. That's impressive. It takes a lot to actually get axed these days.

So far my favorite part is edge finds an injured dude on the ground who says "hey we took a piece of the meteor in our ship and it resulted in me having to blow up the ship."

and then Edge asks "Why???" and shakes him so hard he literally kills him.

and then Edge finds a piece of meteor on the ground and decides to take it back to the ship.

From the comments:

Now that last one is problematic in it's own right because it implies performing oral sex makes you weak/subservient, an idea usually applied to women or gay men. The old "bend over for him" joke is problematic the same way, But I don't think either is inherently anti-gay.

I have him on ignore temporarily and it sounds like I made a wise choice. I just dislike his modus operandi of being confronted with facts and lying in response. I don't have anyone else on ignore and never have before. I just needed a break from that. Dishonesty really, really bothers me.

I also turned off the board games tag until the current round of KotM is over.

I figured this would be your dream KotM.

Not even remotely. I get way too invested in Save Mys to the point that it becomes too competitive to be fun. On top of that, I have very strong opinions about superheroes and seeing other people take it less seriously or in a way that's just counter-intuitive to me is extremely frustrating. I have long had a passion for what superheroes can tell us about ourselves and our society, but for some people it's fun to just get in cutesy nominations. Furthermore, there aren't a lot of comics readers on the board, so the stuff I really care about wouldn't last that long, and it's just not worth it to watch John Constantine get 75th place while Sailor Moon or something equally frivolous and meritless place Top 10.


We should have a Save My Most Pretentious Post of 2018. This one would be a strong contender!

I actually think Obergefell itself is safe. I don't think Roberts/SCOTUS is willing to wade into the nightmare that would be flying in the face of public opinion


I really, really don't see Roe vs Wade being overturned for the same reason. I'd personally put it at less than a 5% chance no matter who is confirmed to the court. Of course, it's still possible for abortion rights to be subtly eroded/undermined from the current status quo without outright overturning Roe vs Wade.
