    Yes but the point is that with Frieza <<<< Trunks <<<< Androids <<<< Perfect Cell <<<< Buu, three out of four of those steps have absolutely zero actual impact. If Frieza, who can blow up a planet without even getting up from his space-chair, powers up four times and brings his fucking dad, still gets wrecked by Trunks in a matter of seconds, and we go at least three levels of ant-versus-elephant above that, then it just loses all meaning

    I dropped Naruto after the first season of Shippuden so I'm not sure if it applies to that, but powerlevel wankery only becomes annoying to me the moment it loses all impact and value The most jarring example of that to me is still in DBZ when Frieza, who could already easily blow up a planet in his first form, comes back as a cyborg which supposedly tripled his strength plus he brought his dad (lol) to come beat up Earth, but then Trunks comes up and beats them both like it's nothing. And then we're presented with human made androids against which he doesn't stand a chance, who in return get annihilated by human made Cell like it's nothing. Speed up a bit further and we have Buu who, if the power scaling had any impact at all, should be pretty much blowing up the solar system with the shockwave of him lifting an eyebrow The powerscaling doesn't mean anything after Frieza, it raising the stakes by saying the stakes are raised. And on top of that it is often just completely unnecessary, people would've easily believed shit was getting real with the androids without having Trunks shit on two powered up versions of the space-Satan Goku spent several seasons yelling at

    Holy shit Tracer looks like so much fun I want to do that The fovcap is still awful though and the guns don't feel like they have any impact, especially Symmetra's charge beam shot feels like you're firing a soap bubble. The voicelines might get pretty fucking obnoxious as well after a while

    There was a Naruto thread on /v/ and now I kind of want to watch Naruto again. Nostalgia for the first 3 seasons and curiosity about how nuts the powerlevel goes after I quit Also "artist rendition" of Naruto's daughter grown up is 11/10 waifu tier
  6. lookin' good You could maybe pad your shoulders to look more intimidating, and I think the tshirt should be green? Also be aware that many cons won't let you bring in the bat, not sure about the gun.

    I actually didn't know who he was and for me the scene didn't feel awkward or out of place so I guess that means it was subtle enough?

    Magic The Gathering (TCG)

    Just got back from GP Utrecht I arrived Thursday since I wanted to do the early bird trial at 9:00 the next morning. Bought/traded to finish my UWr geist list and found a quiet corner to cry in at the realization I just burned ~100 bucks on cardboard within ten minutes. Watched a friend play Legacy, he went 2-2-1 with Goblins and got some star points Friday morning took the MM15 sealed trial, opened an Emrakul but decided to not drop and pass it, got a shite pool without any value and went 1-3 drop. Didn't do much for the rest of the day, three other friends arrived and we finished some trades to complete our decks. One friend did a Modern pickup with his Stompy deck and hilariously enough crushed with it, winning it by beating Twin, GRTron and Abzan. The twin player was salty as fuck about it, and the Abzan match was super intense when he got one creature through to Aspect of Hydra it trice before it got Slaughter Pacted. Everyone around laughs (us too), the abzan played untaps and draws his card, forgetting the pact trigger. He jokes about it and shakes my friend's hand, saying my friend deserved winning anyways. Great guy. Saturday was the main event, I had a crap first pool but passed it for an even crappier pool, with the only value being Tezzeret and Remand. It was however a pretty damn sweet pool to make a deck out of, and I managed to go 5-2 before I drew against my eighth match, to which I conceded since a draw would've meant neither of us would be able to make day 2. I did two modern pickups but lost both immediately, which left me a bit annoyed especially since my stompy-playing friend got third place twice. Sunday I was going to do the Modern star event, but we'd have to wake up super early again and I don't think I could've played like that, so we slept an hour longer and just did pickups. I wanted to do one MM15 draft because there was no way I was going to end this GP without getting any value out of MM15 and boy did that pay off: Kiki-Jiki, Cryptic Command, Surgical Extraction and another Tezzeret. I immediately lost match 1 since I was too busy raredrafting to get any removal but totally worth it. I then did four more modern pickups, of which I won two, lost one and got fourth in the other, netting me a boatload of star points which I traded in for eight packs of MM15, opening a Daybreak Coronet, Eye of Ugin, Remand and Mox Opal. I traded my Mox Opal for the Cryptic Command a friend opened (he also opened a foil Mox Opal btw) and traded a remand and Daybreak Coronet for another Kiki-Jiki and some EDH bling 8.5/10, Saturday was a bit disappointing getting so close to day2 and losing both pickups but Sunday completely made up for it. if I knew how easily those pickups give value I would've started taking those WAY earlier

    I finally beat Rogue Legacy just now, after I realized that always wearing all extra money armour isnt always the optimal strategy Im really looking forward to do new game+

    The Binding of Isaac

    Yesterday I got all non-lost normal mode bosses with all character, yaay Most eventful death by far was when I had 8 red hearts, no soul/evil hearts and accidentally used a Hematemesis pill right before fighting Satan Only spawned one red heart, right on top of Dark Bum, which ate it to spawn two red spiders which then killed me. This all happened within like half a second

    Apparently the Happy Mask Salesman's design is based on Shigeru Miyamoto, with his constant broad smile But hey, that's just a theory

    I thought the Monster Musume manga was pretty cute It actually did start off as just straight-up porn before it became a manga so there'll be r34 of the anime before it even airs
