The link that Emiya and Tohsaka make so Emiya can use his NP
I didnt think there was a mana transfer in Fate route lol

There's one in every route, if I recall.

And there's a reason why it was censored in the UBW anime too ;^)

I have not seen a Julia or Deirdre on Arena for months now. Like none. And I haven't even seen either of them on Grand Conquest either. And Raventomes are often not without Triangle Adept, which allows Cancel Affinity to kick in.

The only real worry are Falchions, but why would you use her to fight them? That's not any different from Hinoka against an Archer. Heck, Hinoka dies easily against Distant Counter users with Quick Riposte if she doesn't have a Firesweep Bow, compared to Robin who can at least survive most melee attacks thanks to her decent DEF.

I decided to upload a video of my Leon sort-of soloing the Kana GHB, because I want to show him off a bit :p
I'd do these more often, but my phone isn't the most reliable at trying to both run the game and record video at the same time (which is why the image quality is a bit wobbly in a few places). But you get the idea anyway - he hits like a truck, can take physical hits when I need him to, and can pretty reliably deal with just about anything I throw him at. :p I'll get him to +10 eventually, he deserves as much.

Nice Leon! I’ve built my up too and summoner supported him. I don’t use the brave now even though mine is plus attack but I might give him one. He does good with life and death though.

I’ve been using mine to be fast and hit hard, especially when ignis triggers. I hope to plus 10 him as he is a great unit. Mines only plus 1 atm though.

I’d say probably hinoka. Although if you want just power, halloween Jakob would be fun. Although that’s a two to one chance. At least if you pull a focus in hinoka’s banner that’s colorless, it would be just her.

I went through a lot of my life losing friends, but the past few years I've ended up making plenty that are worthwhile so it's certainly possible for anyone to do it, you just gotta keep trying and be caring.

Agree! I had my fair share of losing friends when they ended up moving, getting into arguments, etc that by the time I graduated from high school, I ended up having no real best friends

Now I'm post-grad of college and ended up being friends with many. So like Koko says, you just gotta keep trying and push yourself to get the motivation

Oh he's plenty workable, just gotta know how.

He's a great big wall against red physical units of all types. His Atk's usually too low to close the deal, but that's what teammates are for.

He gets cleaned up by bows and anything attacking his Res, but there's a lot of nifty swords running amok right now and he stops plenty of em.

Mfw I made 50 Orbs to go for gray balls but I can't choose the Banner.

FEH Pros; should I go for F!Grima or Sky Hinoka? :V
Click to expand...
In a vacuum, my vote is Hinoka. She's phenomenal.

I'm going for F!Grima personally, but I'm chasing merges. And I still very much want a Hinoka when I can chase again.

The Stoopid Unikorn said:
F!Grima is bad compared to other dragons, imo. She's just never able to be in a state of advantage, which is important in the meta.
Click to expand...
She works great on my team, but that's a full crew of dragons, all of which enjoy stupid Reposition and Guidance tricks - M!Grima most of all - and she typically leaves the walling and whacking to her teammates.

She does bait bows like nobody's business, thanks to Dragonskin, and tears them to shreds on the retort. But Tiki does that equally well.

Alright, it's been 3,000 years since I've posted and I'm quite interested reading through these older discussions. My apologies in advance for these very late replies.

That's why I fixed my post. I agree with you.

It's nuclear genocide that I feel is beyond politics.

General genocide like, say, killing civilians with guns and blowing their buildings down with tanks, is a strategic, and, admittedly effective political strategy, if your political goal is conquest. It's morally wrong to most people and for the most part, we are past that as a society, but if your goal is to expand territory for your people, then genocide is a valid political move.

Nuclear genocide isn't though because it leaves nothing in it's wake.

ChikoLad said:
Yep, on more than one occasion, and even the Britanian Empire deemed it as beyond politics. The Britanian Empire in Code Geass is a ruthless nation that conquers other nations, but even they run by a policy of "killing is done in moderation". Killing everyone is just madness.

Nuking is just inherently beyond politics because actually committing a nuclear genocide is never a good thing for political relations. It either makes other nations your enemy, or it wipes them from existence, which might in turn create rebellion among the few who survive. That's what I mean when I say it's not a political issue.

Now, bluffing a launch of a nuke, or manipulating information to make other countries believe you have one in your possession, is a political move. It gets people to talk with you and makes them more likely to meet your demands, though I still wouldn't consider that a good move in the long run since your relations are being cultivated out of fear and not out of genuine trust and shared goals. But regardless of how I feel about it, one can't deny there is strategic merit in nuke bluffing.

Actually launching that nuke though? There is no strategic, political merit to doing so. You destroy the people who you could have political relations with. You destroy the land they live on, so even if conquest is your goal, you can't cultivate their land. And then everyone else hates you.

If a nation's leaders are unironically considering launching a nuke on another country, that nation is nation ruled not by politicians, but by anarchist madmen.

The reasons why we as people oppose nukes is both humanitarian and environmental, not political. Saying it's political is, like I said, selling the issue short. None of us are thinking of politics when a nation threatens a nuke, or when it goes off. We are thinking of the lives that will be lost, and even for those that survive somehow, the land that they live on can no longer be cultivated and it's natural beauty is lost to us.

Granted, this may well be just me being overly semantic, but this is how I feel on the issue.
Click to expand...
I definitely disagree. Launching a nuke is political. Sure, you have mutual assured destruction, which is very effective. But I would if it weren't for that, of course there'd be people who'd use it for there own benefit. A lot of political leaders could care less about environmentalism and humanitarianism as long. WW2 or even post WW2. Post WW2 US would have definitely loved to use some nukes if needed, especially on communist countries like China or Russia. It was only later when the Soviet Union had nukes that US became more hesitant from actually using them. But they still would definitely use them if necessary. It's their own loss of power that prevents even the maddest of leaders from launching any nukes.

Other than that, TBH, the sheer power of nukes in general is pretty overrated. When it comes to the power of the blast itself I mean. The fallout is pretty deadly and is what would effect the majority of the population around that blast. The core blast that'd instantly kill people isn't that big in the grand scheme of things. We don't really have enough nukes to kill all of humanity TBH, at least not in the way that's portrayed in media.

Most of it would be due to radiation and the climate. Which, really, we're already ****ing up without the nukes anyway. Point is that a nuclear war would not wipe out everyone regardless, sure, goodbye population centers and country capitals, but there'd still be means of politics.

This is a subject that I've been looking a lot into BTW, the destruction of humanity. Most apocalypse scenarios would not be as bad as people think, going with the realistic numbers.

Your best bet for us being wiped out is either another KT meteor(which produces a billions of times stronger than all of the world's nukes combined, and the one that wiped out most of the dinosaurs was 10 to 15 kilometers wide. There's no way we'd spot something that size in space ahead of time unless we were extremely lucky. Just way too small and fast.

Other than that, an efficient disease would be the second best method of wiping out humanity quickly.


And on another subject that was being talked about:
God why do I love talking about people dying in mass. SMH.

Thanos was the best movie villain of the decade IMO. And this is coming from someone who's usually not that big on marvel movies. If you told me that Thanos would be this good, I would have laughed at you due to his previous portrayals and just how much marvel villains usually suck.

But Thanos is pretty much the villain protagonist of the movie, it really is his movie. Which is why I don't get people complaining about the lack of LGBT characters in this movie. Like, that's more so the MCU's(or actually, cinema's) problem if anything, not just this movie. All of the characters in this movie only have so much time and it's really just extensions of their already existing arcs.

The only new gay character that would have mattered in this would be Thanos. Even that's not needed though for the same reason Death was not needed as his lover. More so the father/daughter dynamic that was powerful in this movie.

In all fairness...

Thanos having a massive crush on Death is actually taken straight from the comics.

It's his motivation for everything he does, iirc. Even the whole "wipe out half the universe" schtick is really just to impress her.

I know it is. But in the movie it comes across as more of a genuine concern and not just to impress someone who ends up rejecting him anyway.

I felt he was worked way better in this movie than in the comics all around. Josh Brolin's performance probably helps a ton too. But in general, never really cared that much for him hitting on Death.
