OT: Video Game Thread Part VIII

[Striiker]

I haven’t really opened any packs this week. Light 1 is dead. Try my luck next week. Of course Serie A is last.

That's definitely the smart choice.

Only reason I opened packs instead of saving for LaLiga and Serie A is 1) when the WL picks were broken I saw someone say that pack weight was broken too, so I figured it was worth a shot, and 2) I want a chance at that Messi card.

I got lucky a few weeks back with Di Maria, who is absolutely bananas with technical+, finesse+, and 99 longshots... plus 98 passing and dribbling. I'm scoring outside the box finesse shots with him like a shameless rat. Might be my favorite card all year.

I green timed one off the post inside the box yesterday. I consistently get beat with untimed shots outside the box. My green beans all get stopped.

I would have done Simons if he had a 5*. Probably going to do Garnacho. Was waiting to see if I pulled anyone else half decent. Silly me. Playing WL the last two weeks reminds me how much I got railed during Prem. I played Son and Rodri/Rice every game.

EA is shameless. That upgrade SBC is basically a fodder dumpster.

That’s basically what I figured. Simons is unspectacular but actually usable, unlike the other shit reds.

I don't know about you but I take 5*WF > 5* skills all day. I think WF is insanely important this year thanks to how messed up the finishing is.

Lies of P DLC should be coming out before the end of the year:

8 hour demo? Interesting

Sunny Soulslike Enotria: The Last Song Gets New Release Date, Playable 8-Hour-Long Demo for PC and PS5 - IGN

Enotria: The Last Song, a sun-kissed soulslike that we previewed last Fall, has been pushed back a month, from August 21 to September 19. That's the bad news. The good news is that an eight-hour-long playable demo will be released for PS5 and PC very soon, on May 22. The full version of Enotria...

Nah I need my elasticos lol. Especially when I f*** up the stepovers.

5* WF is nice but as long as they don't have 3* you can manage...unless you are ripping finneses outside the box lol.

PokeRogue is ridiculous. And I think I'm addicted.

@FLYguy3911 any luck this weekend?

Got Rudiger, Camavinga, and Cancelo x2 on Friday. Been dry since.

You?

Oh, very nice. At least those guys are usable, even though links might be tricky. Did you play champs?

Managed to go 14-6 this weekend, so I got Fekir from the objective, then Rudiger and Gundogan as reds. Nothing at all from packs.

I guess those are considered good but I’m still waiting for a single legit impact player, meanwhile half the games I play involve Mbappe, Dembele, Vini, Messi, or someone else on that tier.

I packed Rudiger when I was halfway done Kounde lol. Packed Cancelo out of an 82+ player pick and then packed him in a guaranteed TOTS pack I had saved up. Helped me finish Kounde at least.

14 nice. Those are pretty good pulls from what I have seen. I’m 4-0. I will def choke the 13 for Fekir. I wasn’t gonna play this WL but caved.

I’ve already played Vini twice. I don’t know how people pack these cards. I haven’t even packed Gold Vini yet. I guess people who pack shit stop playing.

Yeah links are tough now that they haven’t dropped new icons. The TOTS cards are superior. Mostly running a Prem/La Liga hybrid. Using Grimaldo and Davies as super subs lol.

Yeah, the duplicates are brutal. Kounde looks good but I’m still waiting for a must-do SBC to appear. Sorloth, if the rumors are true, might be the one. Looks like an even more broken Drogba.

Good luck with those games. Fekir is pretty good but he’s not a can’t-miss player. Hopefully you run into a bunch of impatient guys who will rage quit if you score first or give free wins.

And yeah, links are getting tough. I have a mix of Prem, LaLiga, Bundesliga, Liga Portugal, and icons that’s teetering on the edge of disaster lol. 32 out of 33 chem. Extremely jealous of those super subs though.

Rate this 89th minute goal by my opp. The press in this game is so dumb.

Noooooo… That’s insane

Doing anything with goalies gives me a heart attack.

The Sorloth SBC rumor was real… oh boy.
Also added a TOTS (all teams) 1 of 3 pick SBC, on top of the daily SBC/play objectives giving guarantee packs.

Got 94 Isco from the pick (seems like a win, based on the other picks in seeing people get), duplicate Gondogan from the pack, and about to do Sorloth.

Got Lees-Melou from the pick and Traore from the pack so skunked.

Sorloth is 60k. He must blow.

Ouch…

And yeah, I’m surprised. His stats and playstyles are really good.

Just did him and he feels decent. Basically cross anything to him and it’s a header on net. Doesn’t feel too slow/clunky either. His L1-speed boost is nuts too.

Yep

Only problem is I don’t know how to get his giant ass to go in front of the net. Even with instructions, he’s wandering.
