Cookie Thread Act 6: Cookie & Thread

I’m the laziest person in video games, replaying anything that isn’t new to me is pulling nails.

It’s kind of ironic because I’m the opposite in terms of media, and will rather watch something for the third time than something new.

anyways…

bg3 definitely has diminshing returns if you know the story but there’s lots of new moments

oh god one sec

Ever since fall semester started, all these highschool kids moved in and have tanked my internet

I struggle to stream or play most video games

:pensive:

edit: I have walked more this week than any other week in my life. Which is healthy, so there’s that at least

omega strikers competitive is weird in low ranks solo queue for me
the thing about OS is that if your goalie can’t play very well (or is non-existent) then you end up just losing because there is no defense
this does not apply to forwards unless its both of them if you’re the goalie (i think)

the problem arises when i have no friends that will queue goailie with me that are in similar ranks. and everyone i introduce to the game has a really fucking hard time with goalie because it is genuinely hard for new people
so anyone i introduce i tell them to play forward because its way easier to learn

i’m goalie main by process of elimination

both your forwards need to be good or the enemy goalie needs to suck

i should probably play with atlas more (if we don’t lag). but idk

you can live with one stellar forward but the other one needs to be at least okay in 95% of games

atlas why don’t we play together again
i play with amelia all the time we should invite you

it depends on many things

the odds of being able to carry a slacking forward go way down if the opponents have a juno or a rune, or if the other forward that’s left can’t score ever, or if they have three people all doing well

at the end of the day if they have two people to pass to and I have one person I need to pass to or we lose control of the core then like they are prolly gonna win eventually

really it comes down to whether you can make fewer mistakes than the enemy goalie in time for your non-awful forward to score (or you to score yourself)
