Well the future is coming
Reaper rogue spec when?
Wow 2 will be a thing
Will it?
reinhardt warrior tank when?
That's what he's been arguing for the entire time. Is some different game that isn't world of warcraft.
Not if you're at the helm
Yeah for sure
yup
He cries for the olden days, disses modern wow, but wants an even more modernized wow
wtf
Yah I suppose you’re right. Just another effect of my big picture way of thinking. I guess I’m thinking that far ahead about a sequel lol
Lol
im a genious
It just happens that way
"you just cant grasp"
How are you this egotistical?
Check out the big brain on Brett.
That’s what happens when you talk to people
World of Warcraft Azeroth reborn
Just end up with new ideas
WHEN?
Yah wow 2
you just say blanket statements like that to people all the time apb?
big picture thinking like "what if we were all nice" as a system of government
Like what

you just tell them how youre so much better than them and they cant comprehend you?
dont you think that's a problem bro?
You're actually a moron
in this conversation you've literally said you're more capable like 30 times
Not many people get that distinction from me
I agree now current wow doesn’t have what I am looking for
go ahead count them, ill wait
Lol
shit im gonna go ahead and put them in a meme

cause this deserves it
You know for as big picture as you are you have no ability to actually think about the impact of your big picture
At first I thought the fourth role for wow was a good idea but alas I agree it isn’t
I mean I don’t know what the future holds anymore than you or anyone else does
stop randomly putting words together that don't make sense
Ok
im doing maths pretty good hey?
Instead of thinking you're the second coming of christ
actually think about the implications of what you're saying
I never thought that… everyone has their strengths and weaknesses
??
BOT dn
Just had some ideas and we talked about them and I have changed how I viewed certain things.. have you?
have you ever considered
that maybe
when everyone thinks you're constantly baiting
that you might just not be this big thinker that you think you are

yeah i changed my views of thinking you're constantly baiting.
stfu
Ok
me when i put ketchup on the birthday cake
"time will prove me right" i say as the 6 year old child bursts into tears
actually some kids would probably love ketchup cake
never mind
omg
lmao
you want some mustard and or a hotdog to go with your cake little johnny
Mustard on hotdog only
Ketchup is fine too. I guess I just have a more sophisticated and larger outlook when it comes to hotdogs.
pretty good
lmao hakks
I have a more sophisticated out look on hot dogs than you do!
i've recently come around to a pickle spear in a hot dog
Who love Costco hotdog and drink 1.50
i love when someone at costco suggested raising the price on the hot dog combo
now that we're talking about food, what fucking sriracha are you guys buying now that Huy Fong is hard to get
and the president of costco said "i will kill you before i raise the price"
Lol sams club had Tabasco brand sirriracha LOL… it’s not awful but not my favorite
I buy one sauce and it's chipotle tabasco
ive tried like... 10 of them and they are all shit compared to huy fong
🙌
None because sriracha is overrated
even chick fil a sriracha is meh
it is overrrated
ngl
but its just the better of the ones around sadly
The four horsemen of overhyped food:
Bacon, sriracha, Nutella,
hold up
And I forgot the 4th tbh
how dare you
I actually agree with you
why must you put bacon there
also bacon is delicious
that's how you know you have a bad take
Bacon is good
when apb agrees
I’m over bacon
It’s just overhyped
meh
Ya tbh
I eat turkey bacon
Sriracha is good though
Gonna walk that one back
nutella is def overhyped
So that I no longer agree with apb
well turkey bacon is pretty good too
Also what the fuck was the fourth I had something specific in mind

turkey bacon always comes out perfect in the air fryer
bacon would too but it's pork so hard pass
Kale
No
kale is foul
velveeta?
Avocados
Nobody actually hypes kale up as “good”
They’re definitely up there but not what I was thinking
apb said avocados so guac?
Cheoterie board
Charcuterie is rly good tho
And also not really hyped
Maybe wagyu beef
could be guac ngl
Haven’t tried it so no opinion on wavyu
Is it hotdog
Is a hotdog a sandwich
szechuan?
If it was 2018 maybe
hmmm now you got me thinking
I’m literally actually mad that I can’t remember
Like the entire cuisine? Szechuan food blasts off.
yeah i was referring to the rick and morty sauce
Chinese food so good
ok ok lets keep going
There is a lot of mid sushi in the world, but good sushi is v good.
I’m thinking like foods there are hyped way out of proportion
Like people try to put Nutella and bacon on everything
gluten free shit?
It’s just tiring
No that’s just a disability
true
Lmao
Is it chipotle
Chipotle
Is not what I was thinking but is way overhyped
Caviar
Frosting / icing
Not stuff that’s actually omega hyped up
pumpkin spice IS overhyped
living is bad for you
I agree
I don’t like pumpkin spice at all
If you do too much of it
i dont either
I was trying to guess the 4th thing
wow is bad for you
guacamole
yet here we are
They’re not bad
birria tacos is where its at
They’re just overdone
with consume
What better queso or guac
avocados are bad if they have to travel a long way to get to you
why not both
otherwise they rule
guac 80% of the time, queso 20%
queso is poggies
queso is just. a lot
Also notably queso is not that fuckin velveeta ass canned shit
Yah velveeta is gross
grid
lol
that shit's grid man
Even bots make typos
I live in south Texas I have strong opinions on tex mex
Oh nice I’m in Texas too
ive applied to any and all 21s this entire rant
Oh
highly full of yourself
LOL
oh you have new york taste in hot dogs
this all makes sense
Where? I've lived in Larchmont, New Rochelle, Mamaroneck and Yonkers.
Honestly do love a dirty water dog
bro I CANT
I try not to share my hot dog topping views in public
So nearby you
Glizzy Gobbler
I grew up in Wisconsin tho
last boss of HoI is a complete twat
town of 1700 baby
Wisconsin is the best
Graduation class of 26, beat that.
Hot wheels, beat that
My class had like 900 somethin
Or is that the wrong brand
Mine was probably 90ish
Is there any way of managing the spawns of circles? I got so many around me that I couldn't stay in melee and one of my DPS got punched to death
the UK has place names like Cockermouth and Boggy Bottom, american towns cannot faze me
I think the circles spawn underneat players if I’m not mistaken
The UK should sink into the ocean
give it time
On god
i fled, everyone else should
Florida is going first
HEY LOOK SHE GOT A "cockermouth"
bro wtf
I lived in Florida for 3 years
LOL
I don't think so; We only had me and 1 other in melee, and I had 3 circles right by me
I think we should just glass the planet tbh
HEY LOOK AT THAT GUYS "boggybottom" after taco bell
Oh, hmmm not sure then maybe spawn near people or somethin or I may we wildly wrong altogether
look at this shit
how in the hell

Cockplay
I used to live in a place called Lumbutts. It was just up the hill from Hawes Wood
literally ROFL

wait did I?
:^)
bro ive been signing up for any and all 21s
Texas towns
no invites
its what happens when youre lazy early season and dont grind the io latter
theres a town in africa called Yabewtie or something like that, my static was joking about it
lul
imagine growing up here
haha
Imagine growing up in engl*nd
When AoL first started offering internet in the UK there were several towns where you couldn't get them to accept service because their payment software would try to censor the town names. Places names "Clitheroe", "Peniston", "Lightwater" and "Cockermouth" being particularly notable
I’ll be ur friend
i'd rather unalive

Peniston is bis
That just shows how much more mature the EU folks are apparently
but fuck i cant stop laughing at Titty Ho
US could never get away with that
I'm partial to Cockermouth
case in point
that strat actually worked wtf
It was a 21 Neltharus now it's a...22UR? 23BH on pally
lmao
I shoulda grabbed you over the lock
Hoo Hole
oh bro ez
ToM BS in Nelth is bad
I recall a funny street called Pleasure Mansion in Virginia Beach
Gaslight Court too iirc
There’s a street near me called Wind Walker

lets do something
i might sandbag
but im down
nvm Gas Light Ln
ewwww, Lancashire
sec, not getting loot on the dk in aberrus
sounds like me every tuesday
Who here eatin some chickie nuggies
Nice
NO CHICKEN TENDIES IN A WENDIES BAG
Sir this is a Wendy’s
Your face is a skill issue
is what is
Nice
maybe ill start getting some 21 invites now that i have one
thats the same copium logic im using for 17's running 16's
LOL tru
The desire to live in a town called clit hero is enormous
one of the AI bidens catch phrases is "let me make something clit slapping clear"
there was some key i posted a video of with the presidents and they got trump to make a bunch of strange noises and i started to lauigh so much i lamost lost it and wiped the key
when he's making fun of the oomploompfloompa guy
if i got lost i could never find my way home tho
on last boss of HoI ?
Yeah
They get quite annoyed if you pronounce it that way, NGL
Everyone gets one under them, there are also random ones
best thing is to have your group be in same quadrant. when swirls spawn move to other side.
for tank buster, when you get your alert, hit spell reflect. if u miss the reflect, taunt, because even though u are out of range the boss will still be fixated on you for the duration of the taunt
That
the reflect means u won't be punted.
Isn't what they were referring to
If you step out of melee range someone else in melee range gets punched, it's not about the knockback
If you taunt the boss b4 u step out of melee range
he will not punch other melee
because the boss is fixated on you
I just ended up with nowhere to melee from, tried to move, one of my DPS took a punch to the face 'cos he was still in melee
for the duration of the taunt
No, the punt I reflected; it's the circles giving me nowhere to stand that was the issue
so if u need to do a cool dodge manuever, hit taunt, or aoe taunt, or leap and taunt.
Oh I see, that makes sense
Don't be surprised when it doesn't work though
I didn't realise taunt would override the "punch the melee DPS" part
or be surprised when it does (cuz it will)
I mean they won't be surprised when it does
dont reflect the punt
once again, reflect the hit after the punt
Yeah
entangling on that boss is a fucking nightmare, same with 1st VP boss
but at least
the knock can help you get out of an entangling
u're right, max damage is reflect after, but there is something to say for no punt 🙂
There's nothing to say for no punt
Entangling was a non-issue that run; Monk healer
absolutely nothing for no punt, you gain rage when charging
its a bad take to avoid the punt
we're warriors
The amount of times I've accidentally walked out of range side stepping entangling isn't high, but it's definitely not zero
and the dot does so much more damage its not even a question
My favourite punt mechanic this season is the blacksmith boss in Neltharus; he punts you, you charge out from under his slam and /mock him
No
Nah
you're gonna cause another skyhold unibomber with that attitude
are you moving him out of the anvil area?
What
You wait like half a second, the red swirly appears where he punts you to, THEN you charge and he misses you entirely
Nah he knocks you back into the wall and you wait a half second and charge
What kind of warrior are you
hmm yogi
yeah fr i dont even drop intervene on my builds anymore
well maybe for ST builds
because fuck it
Intervene was fun on Fenrir, but is there any need for it this season?
theres like 3 fixates
bloodswarmers, BH fixates, FH fixates
BH first boss you can intervene the pounce (not the jumps with the bleeds)
The fixate in Neltharus doesn't count, it dies too fast to matter; just stun it
but gotta be careful with the cleave when you do it
what fixate in neltharus
TBH i run intervene all fights / raids - the ability to possibly zoom out of danger or to danger makes me smile.
The add on the last boss. It's a total joke
Assuming your hunter is competent
As competent as intervening a magic damage fixate
warrior can reflect azerite shot right?
if you mean FH, no
There's currently more TW teams qualified than NA teams. Kekw
trying to apply to UR 16's not getting invites yet, do i need to do a 14/15 first? ugh
Does VDH/PPal survive the double tank strat or is that unironically a team that did it without the cheese, you think @strong forum ?
im not content with doing under 16s, i think im capped on t3 crests
only thing that matters is the tank surviving harlan solo
which pretty much every tank can do
yeah
BDK just does it the easiest
and has CC for add + can go full UH ST burn for first boss to get out of p1
its pretty handy to have a UH DK burst 300k dps on boss to get out of the dangerous phase 
i dont think u can switch specs mid key in tgp though
In competition since you can't swap, surely you don't do BDK though right? Because of ST?
uhm
You can during TT
im aware but i mean in the actual competition
Yeah actual competition you cannot
im aware you can physically do it i meant i thought its against the rules
You cannot swap during actual competition
It's against the rules for cup play
It's not for Proving Grounds because they can't enforce it
Because you can't have hundreds of admins
which is even more degen
"lets abuse a strat that we likely cant do during the actual cup"
that being said, it might be possible to be pulled off
¯_(ツ)_/¯
with double tank from the get go
It'll be the play to just double tank even during cups
what are we double tanking i dont pay attention
If they don't fix something this week
depends on how long the dps can survive p1
what is the reason for double tank?
bombing
harlan cannon abuse
harlan
ohhh the cannon thing
ye 🧀
1 tank sits at harlan, rest kills entire dungeon with cannons

Isn’t that out of the question for competition anyways?
right right so the idea is bdk sits at harlan and the cannon damage is greater than having a 3rd dps
makes sense
doubt they do that
you can block sharknado correct or no?
Iirc they enforced 1 healer, 3 dps and 1 tank
comps arent limited to 1-3-1
nah they got rid of that rule in SL
Since when?
for some reason
Oh
i forget, i think i also get hit by shark, which also would trigger dbm

Yeah one of them
but they removed it
weird rule to remove honestly
yeah its why we had 1-4 comps in S1
They'll probably put it back in if they don't fix the cannon range
Yeah even the competitors are like, f this.
im honestly suprised this wasnt a thing i heard about in bfa
yep
so no one bothered with it makes sense
so they stopped that with implementing 1-3-1
then after BFA
they implemented "no spec stacking"
"Oh this is why we put this rule in"
cuz 2-3x outlul and 2-3x BM comps
Yeah because triple BM hunter 
so I guess I can see them wanting more class representation but like
from a competitive stand point
why does it matter how they do it?
as long as its not abusing actual bugs
how a tournament works
They clearly haven't seen Smash Tourneys that's for sure.
It do be kinda boring seeing 3 of the same dps tbh
Falco much
i can understand it
its annoying to triple stack the same DPS
but look at what they did in SL
2x warlock + surv hunter instead
:bearclap:
But also comps are gonna be the same no matter what. Also you can't see the gameplay anyways so what does it matter what color the party frame is.
yeah
I mean I think the real solution is just to make another tournament
Have regular mdi which is anything goes
The great push
well thats kinda what i think as jordan said
And then something where you do one of those but add in an extra limiter
Something like once x is played you’re locked into playing something else next dungeon
the thing is like everyone is going to run whatever is considered "best"
so why even limit in the first place
No one said they had to do this one too
they had a few non-blizzard tournaments
where you couldnt play the same spec 2x in a row
These tournaments were really cool actually, you had to pick and choose which dungeons in a bo3 or bo5 you were going to use
People just want to see their class color represented in the party frame, but won't just say that
biggest issue of the tournament scene is just the lack of being able to do your own for fun tournaments
the lack of "custom games"
Yeah dealing with blizzard esports for tournament creating is part of the problem
Everything has to go through them.
It presents a far more interesting equation to it
Since you don’t want to use your best comp on a bad dungeon
Or just where you use a certain class
blizz is somewhat pushing wow as an e-sport but doesnt give you the infrastructure to treat it as such
:pepega:
Like Prot warrior for reflect or where you want holy pala
(:
Maybe could be interesting if there were dungeon specific comps
Made comp choice pretty cool
That’s the thing this would force that
Since you only get each comp once per round
right
The practice for that sounds so tedious you immediately cut out 90% of people that would sign up. It's already bad enough as is imo.
yes
It works great for MDI but it’s stupid for great push since tgp is all about pushing the limit of key level
Honestly MDI needs a refresh
participation is low becuase the ceiling required to compete is absolutely insane for the average person
I think you’re looking at it wrong anyways
You don’t necessarily build these around the competitors
It’s a factor for sure
But at the end of the day esports lives and dies on if it’s fun to watch
Which requires people that are fun to watch
You build the "esport" to be entertaining to watch for the viewer. and anyone who wants to compete will adjust
If you don't think personalities has a place in competitive scene, idk what to tell you
Matt, if you cant relate to what youre watching, how can you even start to enjoy it
dota/csgo/valorant/lol
That’s a different problem with WoW
all play the exact same game as you do
but wow vs tournament wow
are 2 different games
and an average player cant even comprehend whats going on
WoW also just struggles to be watchable unless you know the game
MDI and TGP would also just find more viewership, if people could make their own shitty funny tournaments
same as you have shitty low rank tournaments for other games
to get people engaged
yes
If they want to
literally my wife when i put mdi on in the living room
"oh cool they killed that thing"
its not even remotely relatable
for a non wow player
The thing is there's no one encroaching on the MMORPG esport scene, so they aren't being pushed to be better
yeah unless youre legit in-the-know
you cant tell how impressive echo is
same as me watching football
Yesnt
^ same literally
HOMERUN!
lmfao
The problem is they are actually incentivized to make it better
I also don't think people realize where the esports financial stability arrow is currently pointing
⏬
wow is literally the biggest meme e-sport
cuz unless youre literally the best team in the world
you just are at a loss
even as a streamer if you say push for a living
now those fuckers are taking over EU AWC too
who is
Personally I don’t find this surprising at all
cho
For a multitude of reasons
me either.
whos cho
ah
They've won like 3 cups now i think
Yeah they're sweeping the EU scene rn
So maybe its just me but seeing "echo winner of this years mdi" is getting old
when i look i didn't remember any of their names
i forgot how bad, but now i know
- people pumped it financially way too hard, it was a bubble that wasn’t sustainable
- and probably the more important aspect imo, you have way too many dev teams that actively make decisions to hurt competitive play because they think they know better
yeah its whazz
ye
formerly method
siege is super beginner unfriendly
It's like Misfits sold their LEC spot in league for 4 mil after paying 1mil but like viewership and sponsorships are at an all time low.
But Ubisoft devs literally said “if we’re making pros lives harder then we’re moving in the right direction”

the people playing that game are cracked
literally see 1 pixel
and identify it as a player
unreal
Used to be me now I’m just washed
🪃
ive bought like 3 season passes of the game but i could never get into it
cuz knowledge in that game is just
more than any other FPS
From a sponsor angle it's more profitable (and easier to scam) if they work with individuals instead of whole franchises.
So that's another ordeal
The big problem wiith the esports scene isn't the pros; it's the wannabes that leech all the actual fun out of casual play
well, the first and foremost issue is the companies making active pro play harder
like I stopped playing League because you'd run into hyper neckbeard "it's a competitive game" types in the lowest brackets that just drained all the entertainment out of the gameplay
Literally me

well those are just bad players
only solution is to git gud
and btfo people
GRIFF A GAMER
Once a gamer always a gamer.
dafuq
is this "we have proplay at home"?
I had my moments https://clips.twitch.tv/SleepyFaintDonkeyAMPEnergy
Used to play for my college
thats a thing?
Ye
man its too bad siege is just full of hackers nowadays
Was gonna say Collegiate R6 has like 200+ universities
Some colleges ye
Oh yeah there's collegiate league here too
thats pretty awesome
Full sail was like one of the first that has an esports arena on campus
in germany you get bullied for playing video games, and in NA you get actually endorsed
wtf
you still get bullied in NA
i've been attempting to play stalker, but surprise, surprise, im too fucking dumb for that game as well
Definitely do
its still a pretty unclear game to me what i actually gotta do
It's far cooler to play video games than it was say 20 years ago, but you still get bullied.
big payoffs on tourneys and later streamers are a big part of that change
I lost a lot of sleep to the PUBG craze
pubg was fucking fun
been shootin nazi's since 1992
i got alot of sleep from pubg craze
i heard that they put revive in recently
lol
so true.
cmon now, its not towelie
no i mean that in a positive way
at least the doc was fucking entertaining
i despise playing BRs
and still is kind of
but watching pubg was aight
watching people play stressful games is way better than playing stressful games
cuz you can just chill
quake 3 arena was actually the best game of all time for its time, same for unreal tournament 2000
i used to dislike BRs until i played them, i love em now
I agree totally wit that take nome

for the time that they were new were literal the best game as a whole
never played again
I miss pubg
But it’s another example of a game that was better before it came out officially lol
the only shooter im actively playing right now is BF2042
Devs changed a whole bunch of stuff no one asked for with 1.0 release
kill me for it but i think the changes have been good and its fun
for BF i mean
anything else is just eh
same old
CS/Valorant and/or Warzone/Apex/BRs
nothing gave you as much of an adrenaline rush as seeing a player in dayz
and of course Siege
dayz and pubg will always be the best
how is updated bf42?
totally worth the 3 hrs of just scavenging
new stuff is garbanzo
i was a preorder guy and at launch it was hella dry
im actually waiting for The Finals, it seems like it'll be interesting
still waiting for a good survivalgame
100% acheivements and like lvl 30general
that could encapsulate what dayz mod was
dunno im having a good time so far in it Brew
general ranks are paragon
im actually a big Ark freak, its too bad the devs are fucking idiots and that's saying a lot compared to Blizzard
so i was kinda excited for ark 2
until they announced all the dogshit
we just need a good dayz again
just plain zombies, weapons, gigantic and beautiful and harsh world
well player unknown is the guy who made dayz mod
zombies is fun for a while then it gets boring
ye
even a good zombie game after while its just same shit
just too bad they all had a shitty engine
and its too bad that dayz SA is built on arma2 engine
and not arma3
go through a door, loud noise, tons of zombies,zombies die or you die
yeah that's true i forgot about the arma2 engine thing
and they made it too realistic
true to arma 🙂
need the correct ammo type + correct magazine + all parts need to be in good condition
if they kept dayz SA akin to dayz mod, just like a few ammo types, not seperate from magazines, just standard water/food meter, and simple crafting/health managament
arma for me is aesthetically cool but i just cant get into it because i spend 90% of the time running around and dyeing before even getting to shoot at someone lol..
yeah i dont like them too much either
survival games are another thing but arma-clones are just not my thing
my ADHD is too powerful these days to still enjoy the slow part of dayz
i just tried it today
and i just starved cuz my player got sick
and i was eternally on catchup from the rain tryna heat back up and scavenge for food
i havent played it in a big while, but the last thing me and my friends did was just to capture people and feed em rotten food
same as doom , but it was just zombiemen far as i know, pretty nuts stuff if you ask me
yeah see.. if im playing a shooter i want to shoot things not collect food and water
lol..
fair yes
play how to survive
you might dig project zomboid if youre into that hardcore zombie survival thing
thats a good zombie game
i used to
but project zomboid only looks fun with friends
cuz you can fuck around
it gets easy at the end, i beat that game tho
all my friends refuse to play anything that isnt wow
and im kinda over wow currently

i wouldn't play rust because i would be in one of those weird rust guy clips on youtube, dunno if i'd be the attacker or defender
i don't play alot of games like that any more where its you collect a bunch of stuff make a base and then you die
yeah nah i was never into base building
i wanted to get into tarkov but it didnt take my email address to register account
so i just dont
Tarkov is actually really cool
but it falls under the run around for a while and get 1 tapped from 200 yards
im actually a founder for that game
I bought the 120usd pack and played early alpha
er maybe it was a beta test idr lol
either way got in early and i get a shit load of stuff every wipe
i remember them saying they would go open world a few years ago
but i lost hope
i wish they did, and didnt do the loot hoarding vendor shit
and went more dayz style, but i lost hope
that game going more dayz style sounds way way cooler
yup
i feel like everytime i play that game its like hmm im going to go in as a scav and see if i can catch somebody off guard and get all there stuff
instead of risking my own
it just sits in the menu inventory
yup
and or ill do the polar opposite and bring all my shit, die with it
and then stop playing until next wipe

i dunno how to check logs for position
like that one guy did, but i got hit for 795k creeping rot
click replay
replay
probably not the best for creeping rot
but if you got hit, you got hit
nothing to look for on a log
do you have a log?
probably , its not been looked at by me
we had multiple points of failure in the key
Either way based on your quite cluttered screenshot, it looks like you're standing close enough to be considered IN her hitbox.
im responsible for some of it
stuff didnt get kicked, ppl die to maggot
i might not have a log
looks like this log died
logs actual dead for me atm
good i've been playing a deplorable game
got a sick belt
yeah yogi, on underrot first boss you want to max range melee the boss at all times pretty much
and for creeping rot i attack from the side since the attack starts like slightly behind her
no idea
the animation is a little misleading except as an indicator for which direction the boss is facing
cant be bothered to care
well i'm just
letting you know for the next time you do ur idk
it's useful to know
thats the last frame before i took 795k, or should be in the last like, 10 frames before it went off
yeah the animation is just not exactly it
it looks like you're slightly too close to her hitbox from the back there
but kinda hard to tell since cow
wait yogi if you cant be bothered to care, why are you posting here?
don't be mean to yogi
im not being mean its a genuine question
it's his prerogative to take the advice!!
he learns by himself not by being told
it's respectable tbh
does he learn?
ye
Yogi deserves mvp
