Just coming back to WoW after a long break. The hearing process for pvp was foreign to me but I got invited to a group last night grabbing crates! How often do these groups happen?!? I got about 2/3 of my pvp gear done in a couple hours just flying around with a raid full of hoard players wrecking every crate! So much better than the battlegrounds and such that I was doing! The only bad part is now that I am mostly geared I can’t blame my failures and deaths on a gear issue.

fierce elm
#

But its more valuable now due to bloody tokens/conquest being uncapped

#

So a bunch of people might be gearing alts and such

keen epoch
fickle forge
#

It's a slower grind to do it this way, but it can be pretty fun

keen epoch
#

I’m pretty intimidated by the solo shuffle world since I don’t even totally understand how my defensives and control stuff works and I have no clue on other class cooldowns but at least this gave me a foot in the door.

fickle forge
#

This and BGs are pretty much the same, except WPvP are an open sandbox with no objectives

sterile moth
#

Do people really not know what OOM means anymore? Christ I’m old

sterile moth
#

It means out of mana

green wharf
#

i play for like 13 years, only tried rated pvp now

fierce elm
#

OOM is used in every type of content where you run out of mana lmao

green wharf
#

Also, im not american, so these terms and abreviations dont flip on me

fickle forge
#

There's even a voice emote with /oom

wheat jay
#

oom is old as fuck

#

been in wow since classic i believe

#

and in other games

rancid granite
#

some people are just slow to catch on to the SLAM builds i guess

#

especially now when +30 rage talent is 1 point only

#

or well next patch

#

full crit/mast Bless build but add in slam

copper fox
green wharf

🦅🫡

fickle forge
#

It's so horrendous

rancid granite
#

i think only bless does lol

#

it like halfed my dps when i tried it

#

big bonks were fun to see though

fickle forge
#

It's not that severe

#

But haste is warrior's most vital stat

#

All builds and iterations

fierce elm
#

uhm technically Strength is better

fickle forge
#

🤓

wheat jay
#

next season will be fun

#

cuz most specs wont even play tier sets

fierce elm
#

Outlaw having a 25% chance to roll 5 buffs on RTB : )

sterile moth
#

I tried crit…it was unplayable 😞

wheat jay
#

dh and warr are dogshit afaik

fierce elm
#

Tier set combined with one talent

wheat jay
#

hunter is whatever

#

lmao

fierce elm
#

gives a 25% chance to roll 5 buffs on RTB

wheat jay
#

that's huge then isnt it?

fierce elm
#

Tested on PTR

#

it can be pretty big

wheat jay
#

sheesh

fierce elm
#

so yeah

wheat jay
#

this is terrible lmao

#

survi is kinda good

green wharf
fickle forge
fierce elm
#

5 roll: 27
2 roll: 17
1 roll: 56
This is about what you can expect from 100 RTB rolls with tier+sleight @wheat jay

so, aoe spender and single target generator will now be on a choice node

wheat jay
fickle forge
wheat jay
#

no, cuz i won't be using butchery

fickle forge
#

So you're gonna do your mega hit and then hit a mega DoT

wheat jay
#

ye, same dot as now, but with double the cooldown

#

but that leaves a free global to use raptor strike right?

#

for sweet average 250k per hit

fickle forge
#

Oh well

#

Just another day of Blizzard not playing their game

wheat jay
#

but hey i can take butchery

#

and do 50% of the dot

#

BUT

#

that's not all

#

I also lose flanking strike

#

so

#

ye

#

i guess kfc is dead

#

cuz blizz is shitting on my spec every fucking season

#

not even expansion

fickle forge
#

There's a god spec on your class that's ripe for the taking brother

wheat jay
#

bitch

#

i dont remember seeing ARMS HUNTER when choosing a spec

#

or did i miss something?

tribal holly
wheat jay
#

Lmao

#

Anyway, survi is deadge

#

Blizz should remove the spec

#

And make sth in its place lol

fierce elm
#

Artji dooming over PTR patches, nothing changes lmao

wheat jay
fierce elm
#

Nothing changes

fickle forge

Nothing changes

#

Artji is the perfect hypeman, but also the perfect bait for bad situations

wheat jay

thats literally what im talking about

number wise, always

The number changes are always a design change for you

This is the Artji cycle

noone wants to see you anyway

"SURVIVAL IS SO BUSTED"

The cycle repeats

ya'll the 5070 is huge

fierce elm
#

Dont trust the numbers

#

I dont trust them until someone turns off DSLL and we can then compare numbers

#

Dont trust the FAKE FPS

urban skiff
fickle forge
#

Wait it's using DSL and not GPL?

urban skiff
#

the 5070 under same conditions is 27 fps

fierce elm
#

Dick sucking lips

#

I dont trust

urban skiff
#

add in dlss 4.0 is going to kick ass vs dlss 3.0

#

and the price is ridiculous

fierce elm
#

I am waiting for someone to use it baseline in a video

#

Not that I have looked for it

#

because I aint in the market to upgrade

#

But I am not trusting SHIT

urban skiff
#

Bro I don't care if the frames are fake. I just squint until I can't tell

fierce elm
#

the frames are FAKE

urban skiff
#

Frames are like boobs

#

You don't care as long as they look real

fierce elm
#

I aint TRUSTIJNG

wheat jay
#

And its all frame generation and ai smoothing isnt it?

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

Cyberpunk is also the worst game to test stuff out dont @ me

urban skiff
#

I don't care if a frame looks smudged if I start filming the monitor with a slowmotion cam

fierce elm
#

that shit is impossible for any consumer PC to play at max everything lmao

fierce elm
#

Truth

#

Without the use of dlss

urban skiff
#

but you don't like the uncomfortable truth that you don't have to use 4k resolution

fierce elm
#

with playable frames lmao

urban skiff
#

You can max out graphics at 240p lol

fierce elm
#

4k resolution is max everything

#

max everything

urban skiff
#

8k is max

fierce elm
#

Alright

#

max everything includes 8k

#

lmao

urban skiff
#

or is it

#

I'm just being dramatic 🙂

fierce elm
#

yeah BITCHBOI

#

Tbf the game is wildly good looking at medium graphics too

urban skiff
#

truth

fierce elm
#

I think I was playing at High, no Ray tracing and DSLL

#

and it was beautiful

#

While still getting mad frames

urban skiff
#

But I started playing it on a 970 gtx so no matter how pretty I make it, it's ugly in my heart 😦

fierce elm
#

lmao

urban skiff
#

I just lowered the big RT button until I hit 144 fps stable

wheat jay
#

graphics are secondary

#

gameplay is primary

#

EZ

urban skiff
#

why do I keep trying to make veal fillet?

#

I'm never happy with the result

#

PSA: Bloodstones remain the source of sockets in s2

fierce elm
#

So buy as many Bloodstones as possible from AH

#

then sell in s2 lmao

urban skiff
#

bought these yesterday at 2.5k

#

Bought enough to raise the price above 3k

elfin surge
#

who remembers rift farming for sockets in shadowlands

urban skiff
#

so around 110k profit just from yesterday to today

#

Battleground bonus event next week, so i sell these if they hit 4k, then use the gold next week to buy back when it drops to 3k

#

Good plan

fickle forge
#

They have to sell first before it's a profit bro

urban skiff
#

I know

#

last time I sold hundreds they were gone in minutes

#

region sale rate of 0.8

#

pretty safe

#

and it's like less than 2 weeks since i did that

fickle forge
#

I play storm

urban skiff
#

BROOO

#

Why you riding my tail then for not having lava lash bound

fickle forge
#

Cause you're trying to play a build that circles around Lava Lash

#

And not using it

#

Lmao

urban skiff
#

is it really trying when it works?

fickle forge
#

I meeeeeeean

#

Does it really work though

#

Maybe for your fun it does

urban skiff
#

people die and I don't have to think

#

that's two success criteria

fickle forge
#

You can make anyone die in skirmishes though

#

With a legion artifact weapon if you desired

#

You're playing a build that plays around surging totem, and surging totem procs big dam when you hit sundering, which lash procs

urban skiff
#

that's true

#

but also i stack the damage mod on the totem way higher than an elementalist could

#

the theoretical max is 27 stacks

wheat jay
fickle forge
urban skiff
#

but stoooooormstrike

deft ridge
#

lash is bis :)

urban skiff
#

but lash is kinda boring

#

tbh

exotic forge
#

That's a nice argument, however

#

Stormstrike

urban skiff
#

stormstrike is GREAT

#

even crash lightning before 11.1 is more interesting than lava lash

lavish quest
urban skiff
#

you think warrior dumb? enh is spicy dumb

wheat jay
#

and the best thing is that its not even a lie

#

i once won a 2s game at like 2300 or so with legion weapon keks

#

into bm hunter

lavish quest
#

Not with how bad you are

fickle forge
#

This was his AWC moment

lavish quest
#

I killed someone with a legion weapon. It was most likely Legion

sterile moth
#

What am I missing with slayer? I seem to do same or slightly better single target dps with Thane and vastly more cleave.

#

Is it just the mobility?

lavish quest
#

Bladestorm more

#

Probably more borst

#

Not sure if than is more ST since I never run it

sterile moth
#

Yeah slayer bladestorm is probably the thing

How do I make so my enemy’s nameplates in arena show what Arena target (1,2,3) it is, instead of name?

my enemies don't have names, just numbers

Although I guess that's kind of my thing, ehehe. ratJAMMIN

#

Me go mid. Me spin flag. Life is simple.

green wharf
#

its very cringe, 3 people beating off a priest and he doesnt die keks

#

or a evoker, that shit ass class

sharp meteor
#

I just had a deepwind where 5 enemy players came mid vs me and mw

#

and we sat there as their map burned

green wharf
#

who though it was a good idea to give then immunity to 3 cc

sharp meteor
#

and not once did they get the base

green wharf
#

cause its usually mine

sharp meteor
green wharf
#

me+healer against 4 and we still lose every damn base

sharp meteor
#

sometimes it be like that

green wharf
#

is like people are playing with the ass

sharp meteor
#

also dude playing tank in blitz is a vibe so u dont do dmg or worry about kills u just spin

#

every dps meathead cant watch the flag

#

i look away from crystal or flag for 4 seconds its gone

green wharf
green wharf

trying to climb as arms, but its like you are a train of glass

#

you can deal damage, but damn arent you frail as fuck

fickle forge
#

Considering to go blitz with destro so I can turn my brain off fully

green wharf
#

after i get 1800 i will go back to warlock

#

fuck melee

#

the neat portalw arlock have is clutch for the base maps

#

one fucker wa getting market all the time because of it

fickle forge
#

I consistently see career rival destros clean fights because CB is broken in that bracket

#

Havoc in the ground and shoot 10 CBs per cast

green wharf
#

cause when i climb to 1600 was shaite

fickle forge
#

They did a bit ago

green wharf
#

had to play demo to get to 1950

cinder tundra
#

standard slayer build: where i should take a talent point from, for wrecking/shattering throw node?

green wharf
#

depends on the one you have

#

people usually get howl

cinder tundra
green wharf
#

you def need thunderous words

cinder tundra
#

got a build to share, or link to one?

#

skillcapped guide is slightly different but that doesnt have Throws, or Words either

#

kinda new-returning player on warrior-pvp-alt so don't have yet much personal insight on builds

green wharf
#

im doing this for blitz

cinder tundra
#

Thanks!

fickle forge
#

Just drop the kick cdr talent for throw

green wharf
#

ah fury

#

i though he was talking about arms

#

btw, this is a game on my bracket

#

fine when im not against 2k evoker and monks fucks who know who FC

native mesa
#

Hi guys in fury mountain thane build in pvp i have to prio bloodthirst or ragin blow

#

Talkin about shuffles

true tiger
coarse scarab
#

do u ever use shieldblock as arms or fury in pvp?

fierce elm
#

nope

native mesa
#

Why bt instead ragin

#

?

fickle forge
#

So you can proc Thunder Blast

fierce elm
#

@urban skiff Swapped Bench for incline smith instead due to shoulder

#

So starting lower than expected because dont wanna re-aggravate it

urban skiff
#

Did you try not having a bad shoulder?

fierce elm
#

Yeah I did

#

for 25 years lmao

#

But figured it wouldnt do harm to start lower and slowly increase

#

so just doing 100 first week

urban skiff
#

Curious when i last did incline bench, hang on

fierce elm
#

I PRd it Jan last year before injuries began happening lmao

#

or maybe it was april

urban skiff
#

Incline db press: 1496 days ago

fierce elm
#

kek

urban skiff
#

Incline barbell bench 2806 days ago

fierce elm
#

I threw in Incline before merely to get 3 plates on it before stopping lmao

urban skiff
#

Man i've used this app for a while

fierce elm
#

Just so I could claim 3pl8 incline

#

Then I got dip obsessed and didnt bench or anything for a while

urban skiff
#

I keep forgetting i can claim 3pl8 bench. I don't even think about how close i am to 4pl8

fierce elm
#

If I dont get re-injured 4pl8s is falling late this year or next year

#

I refuse to get Children before I can bench 4pl8s

#

Those lil fucks will know that they can never outlift their old man

urban skiff
#

On incline or flat? I'm at 148 but could have gone 152 if i hadn't been distracted by a kid moving into my weight zone

fierce elm
#

I aint doing incline 4pl8s ever lmao

#

But flat I could probably do

#

Whilst remaining drugfree*

#

Important note there

fickle forge
#

Don't let Rootfro deceive you

urban skiff
#

I should try and see what my back squat is at these days. 817 days ago since i did a regular squat

fickle forge
#

He's pumped to the brim with herbs

fierce elm
#

Been about 5 years since I last squatted kek

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

They are

#

But, GF forbids it

fickle forge
#

No shit lmao

#

You were miserable just being on herbs

#

Getting trened up prob gonna make you insufferable

urban skiff
#

Last time i squatted above 4pl8 was in 2019

fierce elm
fickle forge
#

It was fun for us at least

fierce elm
#

Also I already look sus rn to the average person

#

so yeah lmao

fickle forge
#

What is that supposed to mean

#

I remember the Afro who'd tell me it ain't good enough until you need a personal tailor for all your clothing

fierce elm
#

That its illegal and something the police are very keen at arresting for

#

And I aint tryna get a police charge on my registry

urban skiff
#

Ended up going into a zumba class until he left

fierce elm
#

And a man at 116kgs with a bicep vein benching 170+ while doing 2pl8s for 5 on pullups can be kinda sus as fuck

fickle forge
#

Just be happy you're a mutant

fierce elm
#

Cant wait to pass my genes down tbh

#

lmao

fierce elm
#

BUT, its a small place

#

They did raid the gym about 30 minutes away last year

urban skiff
#

Here they can only raid gyms that agree to be part of the system.

But if you don't join the anti doping group, then you get a sad smiley.

fierce elm
#

At least commercial gyms

urban skiff
#

But that just became a quick way for PED users to find gyms with fellow PED users

fierce elm
#

And thats the only place I can train

urban skiff
#

I can get a piece of paper that says i can use drugs but don't want to

fierce elm
#

So it can be risky af if you are already a big dude

urban skiff
#

So much work for something everyone else can do

fierce elm
#

Know a couple of guys but none of them are sus whatsoever

urban skiff
#

I think there are 10x more PED users who are casual and not otherwise in great shape, than there are huge hulking beasts roided up to the gills.

fierce elm
#

Something like that

#

Everyone I know has somewhat mediocre lifts and arent jacked dudes either

#

Looks like your average gym goer after 2 years

#

basically

urban skiff
#

Pretty much my experience as well

green wharf
#

climb myself to 1780 just to fall apart and end 1650 keks

#

blitz is so cringe sometimes

#

you think you will escape evokers from shuffle for then to fuck u up with a flag

green wharf
#

just had a dude who didnt cap the flag, when we reach 1350 in eye of the storm, and wait till we won by one base

#

and it was like, huge TF in the base, risk of losing and it was like 1350 vs 1295

#

i have to commend him for his balls of titanium

#

but what a dickhead

sterile moth
#

@green wharf a lot of people don’t know how eots works at that rating. Have had so many games thrown because of it

#

It’s also too easy accidentally cap a flag in eye when you’re trying to hold it

green wharf
#

no he knew

#

he was just a dickhead

#

now my mmv is bricked cause losing 3 games means losing 600 mmv

#

worst rating system i ever seen in a game

If you’re a weak bum yea

@green anchor dang didn’t know about it either

hasty pulsar
#

why blizz make monks the most annoying class in the game

green anchor
#

Devastation Evokers are ten times more annoying

#

it's already gg whenever i face one

#

can't stick to him for a second while he's doing 800k dps

#

I'd rather face a frost mage instead of an evoker

#

iirc the worst I've faced is a survival + bm hunter

#

sit in cc all game seramore

hasty pulsar
#

dunno i think monks more annoying but thats just me

/cast [@arena1] Pummel

Is this how a Arena1 macro for Pummel should look like?

sharp meteor
#

Pummel melee range

#

Kick 123 on warr doesn't get high value

sharp meteor
sterile moth
#

Just pummel and focus pummel is plenty

fickle forge
#

So you can off-kick casters

sharp meteor
#

I'm theory

sterile moth
#

You’re better off just cranking dps rather than looking to pull off ridic interrupts

fickle forge
#

Do both?

hot solstice
fickle forge
#

You're not denied one by doing the other

hot solstice

0 casts\

fickle forge
#

Do your rotation and look for kicks

sterile moth
#

I’m guessing he’s going to struggle to do both right now if he’s asking for a macro. Could be completely wrong

fickle forge
#

Only one way to learn it

#

Anything that's off GCD shouldn't disrupt your rotation

faint girder

@fickle forge also .. how should it look like if I wish to use it while im not in Arena?

have you played ptr arms

wheat jay
#

No

#

I played survi for 5min

#

Its ass

#

In a very bad way

urban skiff
#

what makes it ass?

#

I tried playing my shaman and with even the exact same built it felt really really off

#

for no logical reason

wheat jay
# urban skiff what makes it ass?

Rotation is dumbed down, even more than now, its counter intuitive, fuckton of automatic dmg, like hero talent trees, both of them, actually zero burst lmao

#

They removed butchery from rotation by putting flanking strike and butchery on a choice node

#

Flanking strike is worse than in df too because it used to be burst button and resource builder, now it's spender and kinda burst button but different due to tip of the spear mechanic

#

Explosive shot does like 500k explosion lmao

#

Killshot hits for fuckall, like 600k

#

Raptor strike which is main spender hits for like 250-300k

#

Or rather was main spender, now it's a filler you dont want to press unless you absolutely have to lmao

I have no idea what this means but that doesn't sounds fun

#

Are you seriously downplaying calisthenics in favour of weightlifting? You should do both, it's simple as that

wheat jay
#

Fighting is #1

sand sundial
#

fighting is in fact not #1 lol

wheat jay
#

It is

#

Better than lifting weights

#

Better than lifting your own weight

#

Dont be a pussy and hit back

#

That easy

rancid granite
#

just do calisthenics with a weight vest

#

you get both worlds plus you get to feel like goku

wheat jay
#

DON'T WORRY ABOUT MINOR STUFF

#

Unless you do full contact with the main focus on knocking someone out you won't have problems with head injuries

#

And sparring doesn't usually end up with full contant blows to the head

#

And you have helmets to protect your head too

wispy cedar

try CBT

its pussy to not wanting to get brain damaged

Like I said, you won't get brain damage from sparring

how bout fury changes and reckless abandon

boreal veldt
#

need a fury ptr player to chime in on that one, idk

fierce elm
#

if they arent dumb as hell

#

no reason to just do one type of training

rancid granite
#

i mean the ~ 2 people on youtube i followed just did it cause they liked it lol

#

good shape, liked it so 🤷

#

ill take some resistance bands and a pullup bar to play at home though

fierce elm
#

People also need a giga-insight into someones life

rancid granite
#

home gyms are $_$

fierce elm
#

Because most people who do calisthenics have no just done calisthenics their entire life

urban skiff
#

calisthenics is just gymnastics without the culture

fierce elm
#

I would not claim my gains comes from Calisthenics but its a huge thing of my training

#

lmao

urban skiff
#

You'll be hard pressed to find a gymnast who doesn't fuck around with weights

rancid granite
#

plunderstorm ends like feb 14th or 16th? and someone said if it's following the 8 week cycle it'll be ~feb 8th or so

fierce elm
#

Generally they have specific things tailored for their movements in terms of gymnasts

rancid granite
#

good guess imo

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

Someone on the rings might prioritize core+back+arms, whilst someone on a pommel horse might focus a bit more on hips+core

rancid granite
urban skiff
#

the social gymnastics

fierce elm
#

Its like deciding not to press a damage cooldown because technically you dont need it

urban skiff
#

idk what it's called

fierce elm
#

it limits you a lot

#

Oh you mean those

#

yeah they also train a ton with weights lmao

#

Every person involved in a sport that requires muscles in various ways does weight training

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

They just dont see it as Bench/Legs/Back w.e w.e

urban skiff
#

on top of actually passing school

fierce elm
#

But rather Exercise specifically to improve on what they wanna do

#

this is most prelavent when it comes to Olympic Weightlifters and Armwrestlers

#

Which imo, is something a lot of people training can take a ton from

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

Want big, HUGE legs? Start Squatting like the best Snatchers in the world. Want huge forearms? Look at Armwrestling techniques. Want huge ass biceps for some reason? Start looking at Male gymnasts on the rings

#

Yeah its specifically for that

#

There is a dude that always comes around who does bounces with like 400kg on the smith machine because he is training for the hurdles

#

and is a world champion, but he gets clowned for the way he trains lmao

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

So all he is working on is explosiveness from a moving position, but people dont understand that

#

Yeah he is always trending

#

Its also why the Chinese weightlifting team does some weird exercises

#

Because its all tailored to their lifts

#

They do a ton of weighted 'handstand' pushups for the Snatch and clean position

#

this shit

#

You do that in your average gym and everyone will laugh but it will explode your cleans/snatches

rancid granite
#

that looks dangerous

fierce elm
#

Yeah, but so is cleaning 200kgs lmao

boreal veldt
#

I do a lot of theatre/stage stuntwork, we always combine strength training with weights and calisthenics so we're not shaking when picking people up and control when falling onto mats

fierce elm
#

Nevermind the fact that Calisthenics is excellent at learning how to manipulate your body in various ways

#

Such as learning how to engage your core with your legs just dangling beneath you

#

Moving your upper body in a dip position without moving the rings around etc

boreal veldt
#

Yeah we use a lot of free weights

fierce elm
#

Also, you know, pullups and dips being straight up the best complimentary exercise on common gym bro lifts

#

Source: I am wack and look into stuff before assuming its dumb

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

I have had friends question my grip training before they realize my forearms dwarf theirs in size and strength

#

Because curling a plate with a band attachment looks dumb

#

Unfortunately most come to the conclusion that something is stupid based on someone else saying it or because it looks weird, which leads to people not exploring as much as they should, thus limiting their knowledge and bodily function

#

Peeps are too scared to look dumb that they refuse to try something and its WACK

rancid granite
#

keeping the physical therapists in business

#

bad form, impatient etc

I also despise all the videos making fun of people at the gym because they dont know exactly what they are doing

#

We have this dude at my gym who has some sort of Mental defect. He is always alone and he wears the most comfortable chilling at home clothes I have ever seen while chugging water out of a 2L Coke bottle. All he does is Curls and Rows and I am so happy for the dude

Ye and when I said i train mostly arms you went apeshit crazy on me Afro

#

Fuck you

Yeah because you can train something more lmao

wheat jay
#

I do

#

I just trained arms the most lmao

fierce elm
#

My guy is just out here grinding back and bis

wheat jay
#

I trained shoulders a lot

#

At some point I was doing a lot of lower back, cuz I had problems with spine

north thicket
#

Where is that happening? The videos making fun of people who just want to do their own thing at the gym

#

Sweden?

wheat jay

So my plan to fix it was to engulf it in muscles

fierce elm

Youtube, Instagram

#

there are a ton out there

wheat jay
fierce elm

Like everywhere

wheat jay

Everywhere

Seems to be mostly condensed to the US yeah

But its everywhere

Cuz NA people are assholes

north thicket

Yeah, US is an another human universe

#

I've lived in a few EU countries and have never seen that

fierce elm
#

There is this dude on instagram, he trains nothing but he has a dream of lifting a log above his head in his backyard

#

that is ALL he is doing

#

Because thats all he cares to do

urban skiff

#

Yeah

#

There are some absolute monsters out there

#

That just care about lifting weights

urban skiff
#

Tom fucking Haviland

fierce elm
#

I am so fucking sad Tom Haviland gained fame

urban skiff
#

I almost cried watching his latest video where he's zercher squatting and then clip to his kid also doing zercher squats

#

My own kid just started doing them with me with a broomstick

fierce elm
#

Tom Haviland, Matthew Zlat, Andrey Smaev

#

there are just monsters out there

#

that just want to lift weights

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

Yeah

#

I saw him before that from Zack Telander

#

and it was so fucking surreal

#

also how I discovered armwrestling and different training ways

urban skiff
#

My brain can't figure out what's going on. Is he strong? is it some guy super dedicated to faking it?

fierce elm
#

Yeah then you see the bar bend lmao

urban skiff
#

I know it's probably just a random guy who's roided up on everything and has been doing this shit all his life

#

AND THEN YOU SEE THE BAR BEND

fierce elm
#

People claim he is some ex-marine or soldier who gained enough money to buy a farm and retire

#

and just does this all day

#

which seems to be the case

urban skiff
#

His training can't be cheap, just blow out a bar every time you lift and trust your life on the clips not falling off because the tips are pointing down

wheat jay
fierce elm
#

The wild things arent even his lifts

#

its his athleticism

urban skiff
#

it's his cardio

#

yea

fierce elm
#

Just a casual Kneel to jump with 20kgs

#

While he is already above 300lbs lmao

#

Just a caasual 146kg trap bar jump

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

Also his progression has been really reasonable

#

He benched 240kg close grip in 2016

#

to now benching 272kg

#

We have some dude in my gym who has to be like 40 or something. Absolutely jacked peeled man and all he does is come in and do pullups

#

60kg for like sets of 8

#

and he is absolutely at least 90kg BW

urban skiff
#

When I last saw him he was doing one-handed pullups in an L-sit position

#

with a fucking rope

#

and 20kg or 40k in his belt

fierce elm
#

True chads

#

Just wanna lift

urban skiff
#

warming up with 170kg

fierce elm
#

Does w.e they want

urban skiff
#

I think he's a graveyard gardener

#

idk what the english word is for that, but it's a specific job here

fierce elm
#

They always have some physical job too lmao

#

or something thats extremely tiring

urban skiff
#

It's always extremely physical job, or they chose a career that lets them sit down all day every day so they're in absolutely full control of their gym gains

#

A danish strongman winner a few years ago said he chose a career in bio chemistry of sorts because he could sit down all day and make sure all his energy was spent exactly how he wanted at the gym

fierce elm
#

Yeah

#

Its like Mitchell hooper being a Physical Therapist for old people

you can't have @target on ground targetet abilities

#

When I'm sundering someone, I want that totem on them too 99% of the time

#

Figured I'd save mental load and just bind them together to save time

#

I've got a modifier that removes the relocate for the bind if I really really want to not move totems

wheat jay
#

that moves it to you then

urban skiff
#

yes

#

Why would I want surging totem anywhere else

How do I counter Mistweaver Monks?

urban skiff
#

yes i am

wheat jay

smh

urban skiff
#

and if I'm in ascendance i've got plenty of mental resources to keep mashing that stormstrike while i move the mouse to them and relocate the totem manually

#

I don't see a situation where moving a dps totem requires the level of precision equivalent to "mouse on enemy 24/7"

#

so yeah, I'm gonna keep moving that totem to me, if not on sundering then when I press doomwinds

Question, I’ve been doing it out of habit but wondering if it’s a leak in my gameplay….does sweeping strikes get enough value during bladestorm to pop it before?

Ah wow so no value

Thank you

elfin surge

sweeping unhinge is coded poorly

itll give double stacks and spread sharpen blade
