@braykneckspeed @gayviatorr We often forget that Ana was for the longest time (might still be?) by far the most played hero in the game and on her second mythic skin already; an African old woman. All because she is just fun af to play

@taeyeonsswifey @pandasexpressed @LudwigAhgren Even in a vaccum, The Yard's ads are essentially improv bits that follow their same comedic style. I like never even notice when they transition to them so I always let them run when I literally have the option to skip ahead if I wanted anyways (which I don't during a wcup game)

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 To me it just feels like the energy is being misplaced and we are fighting the wrong fight of what is a much larger problem since globalization started

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 You are right but I like to challenge the idea of "it can't be ignored" when the most popular characters in an already inclusive game are still the most conventionally attractive and stereotypical and MR the other day announced 7 gooner skins to their ALL conv attractive chars

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 And I mean how useful it would be truly if blizzard added 40, inclusive characters to their weehee-woohoo game to the overarching societal problem that is beauty standards? Feels more like a pacifier while swimming against the current, which they already do better than most

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 @kitzunerush There's some of that for sure and it's dumb, but I mostly just see frustration when a cool character drops and it's met with a wave of expectations that the majority does not share

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 @kitzunerush I see you created a safespace with your pokemon discord thingy, that kind of thing is really cool! I mean I don't particularly care about what you do with your free will tbh, I'm just pointing out why it's clashing so much with so many people as you've probably already seen

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 @kitzunerush Totally cool to have those higher standards yourself and to push for media to follow a healthier direction but I do question if complaining on Twitter is the method of choice for this when all it seemingly does is to alienate the people with different views

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 @kitzunerush Im gonna keep it 100 I havent seen a Twitter redesign that I like as much as her official design personally
The standard you are holding to them is one that is totally subjective to each person and doesnt exist out there and making it the devs responsibility is what turns ppl off

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@corakow05 @kitzunerush Idk while she's attractive and like the 5th Japanese hero I do think they tried something different by giving her an intimidating and uncanny edge on top of the Japanese gang anesthetic. Also, you may be hyperbolic here, but ow is easily one of the most diverse games out there

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@Gugh_VR @kamimi_art @JustPinkAzure Not the chicharito pfp

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@Player222540045 @KAJOR_ Eh idk I actually thought that was lit af. It was stated that she is passing as a human as much as possible. That detail gives her a threatening, uncanny edge for being part of an oppressive mafia

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@Reeddirect @KAJOR_ So long as we can recognize that calling them out for it isnt gonna change anything and neither would them adding 20 unconventional heroes cause a dent on the overarching societal problem of beauty standards. Its just handing out pacifiers while trying to swim against the current

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@frootjuice15 @mahodgyyy @RyanJosephHart I mean you let those people complain and be prisoners of their own mind then. Many pros have said already that they actually like Ed's design and consider him to be a healthy top tier while Mai is universally hated. I'll still definitely take the lesser of two evils

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@Chunky_Milk____ @CloudSt1313 Tbf it never has been or ever even tried to be part of the fgc community. Still a fighting game

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@Runwayaways @p1nkflood I see where that sentiment over Remain In Light comes from but to me it very clearly and intentionally descends from very groovy polyrhythmical place to a darker ambient one. Wouldn't describe it as 'messy' personally

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@freightfps @Wildcat1204 @isothermic_9 @AllergyQueenOW @T0MMATHAN @Ocie_Casts That was my response to your other tweet that was somehow even less petty than what u are saying now. Literally so lame

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@freightfps @Wildcat1204 @isothermic_9 @AllergyQueenOW @T0MMATHAN @Ocie_Casts You are unbelievably dense pretending to be a hotshot under a conversation abt humbling your competitive expectations. You will never be the goat at anything in your life bc I can tell no one likes working with you lmao and thats actually how the world works. Gtfo of my notifs

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@freightfps @Wildcat1204 @isothermic_9 @AllergyQueenOW @T0MMATHAN @Ocie_Casts Since you are not giving me the benefit of the doubt in the slightest I am not going to either. I’m very certain you have not clocked as many hours reviewing diamond games or studying team matches of all levels nearly as I have and you don’t know what you are saying

[Cithiel @cithiel_]

@pcnyck @KAJOR_ @Lucigu888_ow Better than average is just better than average. You are grabbing something that’s objective and stamping an arbitrary label like “good” to it. The response tweet that got a ton of likes did the same thing but with “bad” instead
