Looks like I'm a little late for the clothes eating conversation... bummer. But I was summoned by @Zoroarking, and I want you to know that your quiery has been seen.

(Regarding a bet to eat an article of clothing as a bet)
The shoe is the best article of "clothing" to eat, in my opinion. This is because 1. It's close to the floor, and dirty, and the humiliation from eating it is compounded. 2. It gives new meaning to the phrase "foot in mouth".

Also, hope everyone's doing well, it was nice to be tagged, at least someone remembers me :')

So, what does everyone think of Smash for Switch? From the rumors I've heard, it's going to launch within the first 6 months, and be a simple port, with all of the DLC. If I'm not mistaken, that's pretty much what @vaanrose predicted over 2 years ago.

lol What the **** Legacy of Goku 4 is a thing.
There was a problem fetching the tweet
The first game was awful, I remember the second one being much better, I never got much farther in the third.
Yo what?

Legacy of Goku 2 and were so awesome (if absurdly imbalanced). I would love a sequel on modern hardware!
EDIT

Well it isn't exactly a pretty game in its current form. Thankfully this is "Pre"-development >_>

Finns definitely a go. Not planning on a Team Pack yet, waiting for next weekend. I was thinking of Superman because of his flight ability. Supergirl looked like a lot of fun when you were using her in your stream, so I wanted a character who could fly as well.
Yeah, Supergirl is basically a straight upgrade to Superman. Does all of the same stuff as him except she has faster combos that are just as strong, and she can also transform into the Red Lantern form (which I didn't show, but it's there).

If you're getting Sonic, he has the ability to fly when he is in Super Sonic form (which is an unlockable within his level, but once you unlock it, you can use it anywhere you want). So he can cover you for that if you want to minimise on buying characters with similar abilities. However, do keep in mind that it functions like in an actual Sonic game - Sonic has a meter that you need to keep filled up by collecting Rings/LEGO Studs. Sonic's Tornado can also fly, of course.

Supergirl will also be available more openly in March. Though if neither of those options fit, Superman is a good choice for a flying character.

Here's a list of characters and vehicles that can fly, in case you want to weigh your options.

Ugh Sombra is really pissing me off.
What's the issue? Playing against other Sombras or playing as Sombra?

If it's playing as her, you just gotta keep playing her and understand how she works. Playing against her, be sure to listen for a ton of sound cues and try to be aware of where she may lay her teleporters and hacked med kits.

Hi guys. I'm back again :)

Kurri ★ Kurri ★ Is there some sort of Overwatch tier list I could see? I'd also like to see more of the competitive side of the game.
A tier list?

Of course there are heroes that are better/more useful than others, but I dunno if I'd look at it like tiers in a fighting game. Gotta look a multiple factors. That said there is a usage chart I found
Just hop on over to the /r/competitiveoverwatch subreddit or follow guys like OneAmongstMany on youtube.

Basically, Lucio, Lucio, Lucio, Lucio, Lucio, Lucio, Symmetra sucks, Lucio, Lucio, Lucio and Lucio.

Doesn't help that Blizzard is practically nerfing the poor guy down to the ground without actually dealing with the actual problem with him. Basically, he's at the top of the list because he's the only AOE healer compared to the others who are single target, and he can also AOE Speed Boost, which is big for Control Maps where the team has to get there fast. They keep nerfing his damage, bullet size, healing and speed, but he's still around because of the fact he's still a AOE healer.

Does Overwatch not have high team diversity? It seems like the same few classes are being used often

People are already saying SuMo's plot is the best in the franchise, I didn't think I could get even more excited.

Yeah, OW sorta has that problem, where at high level play things get a bit homogeneous.

Ana has (well had, new update) an insanely good ult that very rarely would you not want.
Lucio has his speed boost which is always useful.
Zarya is considered to be the best tank due to her utility and dmg output.
Reinhardt plays a very large part in controlling the pace of the game
McCree does insane dmg from afar
Reaper does insane dmg from close

After that, everyone else generally does what they do, but maybe not as good, or they have something that's useful in certain situations.
i.e Aside from a few utility, McCree does what Mei does but better. McCree also does what 76 does better (although new update I think fixes that).

It's not because some of the heroes are not good. It's that either the higher heroes have fewer counters(like Reinhardt) or are practically mandatory picks for certain reasons like Lucio(for his AOE speed and heals) and Ana(for her Nano Boost). In Zarya's case, her case comes from the fact that a Good Zarya is a dangerous foe, but it also comes from the fact that no one stops shooting her when she has her barriers up. Basically, when her barriers are up, any damage she absorbs with them is added to her in the form of Energy and she deals more damage the more higher her Energy is. And a High Energy Zarya is a really dangerous force to be reckoned with.

Winston, the monkey.

So already I'm liking the changes to Torbjorn and D'va. Pharah feels a bit more smoother when flying. Widowmaker charges faster when sniping. That'll go well with her past buff. And Soldier does more damage in general.
Now I just need to give Sombra, and at some point the 4 Halloween costumes, some attention. And I need to do Heroes of the Storm later so I can get the sweet Genji skin.

I think Mercy will be the most important hero for 3v3
I think she's a good hero, but I don't think she'll be the most important. Rezzing your team is really useful, but that's assuming you even get the ult. That and she has no dmg output

Soldier 76 is a lot better of an option because he has the dmg output and can heal the team enough to keep them in game longer.
Roadhog would be another great option because he has a large health pool and can heal himself.
I think after that it's Lucio because healing and speed boost.

Yay! Junkrat says, "Get ready for a shock!" when he uses a Rip-tire as Junkenstein!

I wish there was a way to truly know when a store is going to have the NES Classic Edition in stock.

Don't want to pop in/call my GameStop daily just to get the same answer.

I don't know for certain, but I guess some of the major chains are probably going to have it on Black Friday

Probably Walmart?

I just finished taking a survey that I only now realized existed. Nintendo is taking feedback for ways to improve their social media and they posted the survey link on their Twitter. They even asked a couple of questions about your opinions on the Switch towards the end. If there's anything you'd like to see change about their social media approach, I'd suggest you take the time to fill it out.

. . .It is fairly long, though. Just fair warning on that.

*EDIT* Holy smokes Nintendo just congratulated Xbox on their 15th anniversary.

If I recall this is the first time Nintendo has done something like this. I know Sony and Microsoft have done this before.

If Phill Spencer was willing to tell Nintendo he's picking up a NES Classic Edition, seems all right to me.

He did that last week not that it should really matter to anyone what executives do.
