  • Yeah it made early game feel a little pointless since like you said an early lead built up on multiple good plays could get completely wiped by 1 death.

    Really happy the dev team has been tweaking things as much as they are and pretty quick to listen to feedback. Even when a buff is a bit strong in one patch I don’t get too annoyed about it since I know they’ll have a fix out pretty quick.




























  • Lmao yes famous things leftists ask for like:

    1. Stating your difference from Biden would be to have a republican in your cabinet.
    2. Campaigning with Liz Cheney.
    3. Enacting the rights border policies.
    4. Walking back a commitment to ban fracking.
    5. Walking back support for Medicare 4 All
    6. Walking back support for the green new deal.
    7. Supplying and funding the genocide leftists and Arab voters explicitly wanted stopped.

    They can’t even blame third party voters this time around because from the current tallies it wouldn’t have made a difference.

    They didn’t activate what should be their base enough and instead tried to court neocons and these mythical moderate republicans that would abandon trump in swaths for a righter wing democrat (hint: they will always prefer the actual republican).

    If the democratic leadership takes this result as anything but an indictment of their attempt to abandon popular left policies to become the Republicans of 20 years ago they are hopeless. I’m not holding my breath though.


  • It’s wild to me that when she realized she had to somewhat distance herself from Biden she chose to say she’d have a republican in her cabinet. Not something about helping the working class more, or not supplying and funding a genocide that’s incredibly unpopular with what should be her base.

    Stuff like that along with “having the most lethal military” and campaigning with Cheney alienated leftists, student, and Muslim voters which all could have been easy wins.

    Economically people don’t feel better under Biden than they did 4 years ago which while the inflation largely isn’t his fault she still needed to meaningfully project she would be different than him to get working class voters and she didn’t effectively do that since she wasn’t pushing a populist message.

    She clearly doesn’t know how to campaign well (pretty sure I heard she had Clinton staffers giving advice to her campaign lol) but that shouldn’t be a surprise since she was the first candidate to drop out of the 2020 primary.
