Melee pressure getting nerfed or not?

so, no then :slight_smile:

Sound accurate?

depends - if you live in a world where people play 1 character, probably yep. last season i did it on 5 characters. i post on this one because its my main. are you asking me to reply to you on all 5 of my characters (or whatever amount i do it on this season, i like 9 of the sets, so probably 9) every single post? :confused:

i intentionally keep all my chars on checkpvp so you guys can’t whine about X games or Y rating, yet you do it anyway. I find it quite entertaining :slight_smile:

And are you going to substantiate your claim that 40% of your games at 1800 are played against r1s and streamers are you going to just leave it as a claim with no proof? :slight_smile:

of course not - who screenshots arena game scoreboards?

… oh

People that love arguing and want to win arguments by proving their claims are correct. I would expect somebody that’s gone through higher education and apparently received first class honours to understand that you don’t argue with just claims, you argue with claims + evidence and support for that claim.

Same logic then - I played Echo 10 times in a row, won 10 in a row. No proof, but it happened.

You could probably just save face and say something like ‘maybe 4 out of 10 is hyperbole’, but you won’t, because you’re too deep, have too much pride, and love my attention too much.

I do not think you think that i think the World of Warcraft arena forums are as serious as University. I don’t think you think they are, either. So, pretty weird request.

No, i’m not going to screenshot wins or losses. Whats the point for myself? So I can show my grandkids that I lost to Joefernandes on my rogue at 1600? Poggers i guess.

And what would be the point for you? Throughout this conversation you’ve missed several points, or shifted the goal posts on what you’ve said.

First, I made a sarcastic comment about 3k in NA being the equivilent of 1700 in EU. You missed the sarcasm.

I then made another comment wherein I said I face streamers and rank 1s and glads at 1800-2200 MMR. You took this to mean “every game.”

I then made another comment saying, yeah, no, not every game obviously, but enough for everyone, including yourself, to notice “probably around 30-40%” is my guesstimate.

You then took this as scientific data and said that no, that doesn’t happen.

So, I linked you a video of Snupy, a rank 1, playing at 1800-2200 MMR, against multiple different teams, most of whom were glads/rank 1s.

Your reply to this was to say “well, yes, he is a glad, playing against glads, but those glads don’t count, because he got them in XYZ season.” Who said Obsidian Glad?

and now you want me to go into the game and play presumably 100-1000 games, checkpvp every single player, screenshot all of them and prove to you that exactly 40% of them are Obsidian Gladiators, a claim I never made.

and even if I did do that, you’d just reply “well, this guy doesn’t stream.”

So why would I bother? Nah, i’ll just write my forum posts, play my World of Warcraft and water my flowers while I watch you try to aggro me with weird things no one has ever said, or twisting things people have said :slight_smile:

I mean, you obviously didn’t take much from it, the whole point is learning and applying it outside of your studies.

Asking for substantiation to claims is not weird at all. If I say something like ‘Frost DK is a broken spec in 3v3 and needs nerfs’, but all the performance statistics indicate that it is not, is my claim weaker?

Of course, why would you support your claim when you can just spew it with no supporting evidence :clown_face:

Proof that 40% of the games at 1800 mmr, as you claim, are played against R1s and streamers. Don’t even need to screenshot wins and losses, just the names of the players you’re against at 1800 mmr.

Yeah, I genuinely thought you were serious when you said 1700 EU = 3k NA :expressionless: Computer science degree > flowers is making more and more sense.

Nope, you said 4 out of 10 games is against R1s and streamers. Here you are:

says he faces r1s and streamers 40% of the time
asked to provide evidence
says no

Factually an unsubstantiated claim that means absolutely nothing. In other words, you’ve made it up.

The only R1s in that video were at the end and they were at 2k-2100, 200 mmr above where you claim they’re at. ‘Most of the glads’ in that video haven’t been glad since shadowlands season 2. Are they the same level as a DF s2 glad? Are they the same level as a TBC glad?

A claim you did make though, as linked above. Play 10 games at 1800, show me that in 4 of them you are against r1s and streamers.

Which part of this is me twisting the claim that you said 40% of your games are played against r1s and streamers? :slight_smile:

Even in your Snupy video, they aren’t ‘multi glass’, they’re mostly 1x SL S2 glads that benefitted from a global lockdown + 9 month season with giga inflated rating.

Can we get a nerf to DH? Just casually dealing 2x-3x the DMG everyone else is dealing. Every single game in solo shuffle is 1-3 DH… I think having 3 DH in a single solo shuffle is proof that something is VERY WRONG. 200k Death Sweep, 300k Elysian, 100k Essence Break, 100k Fel Rush. Pressing 1-5 kills someone in a stun…

Nah, just more clued in. Imagine unironically thinking making unsubstantiated claims about things and people is credible.

I hope one day you don’t go into journalism or any form of media with this mindset that you can just say whatever you want with zero supporting evidence. Won’t end well for many reasons buddy.

But hey, you do you and keep lying about the level of players you play against at NPC mmr if it helps you feel better about being bad at a game you’ve invested 13+ years into.

Brotha, i am replying to you while dead in blitz. I know you’re in that “facts dont care about your feelings! :nerd_face:” phase of your life, but trust me, it’ll pass. i had mine. i dont care about this conversation and i will not write a thesis for you

I hope it doesn’t. Should have stayed in that ‘phase’, because now you just look silly making unsubstantiated claims with zero evidence.

Do it in a newspaper about a public figure without any facts, let’s see how well your feelings in the absence of facts prevent you from losing a defamation lawsuit :+1:

Doesn’t care about the conversation but has spent hours replying to me.

Not asking you for a thesis either. Just 10 screenshots at 1800 mmr, where ‘4 out of 10 are against multi glads, r1s and streamers’.

Won’t because you can’t.

you’re too easy to detect

yeah? i’m doing blitz and wqs. im omega chilling

why do you keep changing your character name btw?

Keep backtracking.

‘4 out of 10 games are against multi glads, r1s and streamers’…’won’t prove it though’.

Equally, I beat Echo 10 times in a row. No proof though.

Because I do what I want with my money. Why did Nancy change the name of her Warlock?

she aint a goblin anymore, nancy is 100% a goblin name.

Lmk when you’re big boy enough to show us the multi glads, r1s and streamers you’re facing ‘4 games out of 10’ at 1800 buddy

No.

Thanks for backing up my claim though, that glads are roaming around 1800-2200 mmr

1x Gladiators from SL S2 is not the same as ‘4 out of 10 games being against multi-glads, r1s and streamers’.

Key word: multi. Meaning, more than 1 time Gladiator. Hope that helps.

And now you’ve increased the threshold yet again when you’ve been talking about your personal experiences at 1800 mmr:

:yawning_face:

nice, you quoted some posts and not all :slight_smile:
