@themeasuredtake @MalloryMcMorrow This would be the greatest president/vice president duo of my lifetime. And I'm old.

@spencerpratt You just made Abdul more relatable. This look speaks to Michiganders who are so underpaid that we shop at wholesale clubs and so overworked that we are too exhausted to think about what we'll wear every day. Almost my entire wardrobe is black T-shirts and khakis from Sam's Club.

@WEdwarda @Umaixer @AbdulElSayed @MikeRogersForMI Well... his home is Michigan. I'm not sure calling people from Michigan "goatfuckers" is a winning strategy, especially when his opponent is also from Michigan. You didn't think this through, did you?

@_Final_Man @PlayGuildWars3 The fur races need to look and feel like distinct fantasy creatures. Taking something that already exists, like bears, and making them walk on two legs and talk is weird, lazy, and cringe.

@athenaheart_OW I'm sorry, but I do not get hyped from "Look at all the exciting new ways you can give us money!"

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@robert_ovw @chazm_ball This is what people aren't understanding. Adding a tier in that MMR range means more tier-restricted matchmaking for players in that range, which, in theory, means higher-quality matches/less skill variance. (OP falsely assumes MMR is evenly distributed across tiers.)

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@ReshiRed_ @chazm_ball Also, people don't realize that the "MMR gap" isn't evenly distributed across tiers. It narrows as you go higher, and there are matchmaking restrictions based on tiers. SO, the point of adding more tiers at the higher end is to make matchmaking more competitive.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@chazm_ball Adding tiers tightens matchmaking restrictions at the higher end. (High gold/low plat is actually in the middle of the curve.) Many people don't realize this, but Bronze 5 actually has the widest MMR range. You can "rank up" from Bronze 5 to Bronze 5. (Hidden wood/plastic tier.)

@filmbrix @NextBestPicture I'm convinced that the "book readers" who complain have only read wiki articles about the books.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@Airaasayss Not enough information. There could be additional holes on the back.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@the_marahfa 💯. She is too exposed and the middle doesn't have enough support. You didn't have to be an engineer to see how awkward this design is. Maybe the in-game lore is that future South Korea cut funding for STEM programs.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@OWCavalry @emonggtv Having a de-mech mechanic for Wreckingball would be amazing. Hammond could be like the mini Mauga from the April Fools event.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@pmaEGG @conorgoldenboy @PlayOverwatch 6v6 has been back for a while, but recently, they have been testing alternatives to the current "open queue" format. That's it. Anything else is conjecture or wishful thinking.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@Greenpig117 Agreed. There are too many heroes with simplistic, outdated kits or bloated, impossible-to-balance kits that need massive reworks. I think a good cadence would be alternating between a new hero and a massive hero rework with lots of fanfare, hype, skins, a themed event, possibly.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@EricMPerez_ I still have whiplash from the massive, mounting global Null Sector invasion about to kick off only to have Vendetta show up saying, "Yo, Omnics, I'm really happy for you, I'ma let you finish, but Talon are the best badies of all time!"

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@WHAATEVEN Slightly off topic, but this would have been a great opportunity to introduce their first paraplegic character. Pointing out how she is sitting made me think of it.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@GarBarbarian @WHAATEVEN To be fair, Australian women are built different.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@blenderwatch D.Mon's cobbled kit of familiar abilities actually looks coherent and synergistic. Recently, heroes have been given bloated kits with abilities that lack a clear design philosophy- just too many random ideas thrown together.

[Kastle @JamesKastle]

@PlayGuildWars3 Anthropomorphic animal races is not it.
