In this Community Update, we will be covering all of the new content coming to COD:M in Season 3 â RUSH, including the new Battle Pass and Battle Pass Vault, new MP Map, new weapon, new scorestreak, new quality of life changes, and more. Letâs groove! https://preview.redd.it/x2l2l4u6frqa1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=1349816984be8c8523c4852dfb336640e4ce51db As always, letâs start with a quick look at all the newest events launching throughout the next week:
In addition to all of the modes and events listed above, this season has a ton of new content coming like new operators and blueprints. You can see some of the new content that is coming now and later in the Season in our Roadmap below â https://preview.redd.it/7adkupjefrqa1.png?width=974&format=png&auto=webp&s=f6ba44f1462554fb752a2039c516b774f90e46da Battle Pass The Season 3: RUSH Battle Pass is now live! This new pass features Epic operators: Rivas, Darkwave, Domino, and Stitch. The weapons in the pass include the KRM-262, ASM10, KN-44, Razorback, and the new sniper the HDR. Also in the Battle Pass is the new Scorestreak the Wheelson as well as a variety of other items and blueprints. Below youâll find highlights of both the free and paid versions of the Battle Pass, as well as our Battle Pass trailer so you can see the operators and weapons in action! Free Battle Pass
Premium Pass
~ Parachute â Oil Spill ~ Glow Stick â Oil Spill ~ Avatar â Besides Oneself ~ Frame â Oil Spill ~ Calling Card â Rainbow Renegade And on top, of that, we have our Ground Forces Subscription! Join Ground Forces and unlock the following â
In addition to our Battle Pass offer, we have our usual Battle Pass from the past in our Battle Pass Vault. This season in the Battle Pass Vault is the 2020 Battle Pass from Season 10: The Hunt. This means if you happened to miss The Huntâs Battle Pass the first time now is your chance! The Battle Pass Vault Season 10: The Hunt will include â
https://reddit.com/link/12659vh/video/7fouhsa1grqa1/player New Weapon â HDR Sniper lovers rejoice! Now available at tier 21 in the free path of the Battle Pass is the new Sniper â HDR. The HDR is a bolt-action sniper rifle originally from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. This new functional weapon is a powerful, heavy sniper that sacrifices movement speed for its high damage. However, you can mix and match attachments like any of our weapons in-game to make the build that fits your playing style, one recommended build we have can be seen below - https://preview.redd.it/qpfxl7s3grqa1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=8d7a0b9436650f95c61726be4689a5599751e376 In addition to the base version of this weapon at tier 21, an Epic version of the weapon â the HDR â Iridescent Lines is available at tier 50 of the premium Battle Pass. And, if you keep an eye out, youâll see a Legendary version of the HDR available in a draw later in the season! New Scorestreak â Wheelson Available at tier 14 of the free Battle Pass is the latest scorestreak coming to Call of Duty: Mobile â Wheelson. Popular in the Modern Warfare series the Wheelson has rolled its way into COD:M Season 3 â RUSH. The Wheelson is a UGV (unmanned ground vehicle) with a powerful turret. After calling in this scorestreak, players will be able to control the Wheelson by remote control, driving over rough terrain and eliminating enemies with its incredible firepower. The Wheelson is deceptively agile and can fit into tight spaces, so donât think you are safe from an enemy Wheelson just because you ran into a building! New MP Map â Rush First seen in Call of Duty: Black Ops II and again in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War the colorful MP Map Rush has made its way to Call of Duty: Mobile! Rush takes place centered around a paintball field where players can engage in fast-paced high-intensity closer encounters. If you are planning on Rushing to the paintball field we recommend doing so with your favorite SMG. Outside of the paintball field is an area of admin buildings filled with various tight corners to continue close encounter engagement, but also various windows and long sightlines for players who like longer-range combat. Rush will be launching later in the season, so be sure and keep an eye out on our socials to drop in! https://preview.redd.it/po2egk0cgrqa1.png?width=975&format=png&auto=webp&s=dace10f127d21ba8f42116b17afff45523e72089 Safe House Safe House is the newest âquality of lifeâ update in Call of Duty: Mobile and it's now live in Season 3!

JoJolity | Errok | 26(9-8-9) - 21 (7-6-8) | Reasoning |
Conduct | Tie | 10-10 | A strat time extension was issued without penalty, but do note that these are given wholly under judge discretion with sufficient notice and good cause. We have been more liberal than tournaments past, but even we have limits. So far extensions have been in lucky spots where they did not interfere with the schedule of other matches, but there is also the consideration of fairness to both teams and when an extension is necessary by circumstance or become needed due to not being able to finish in a given timeframe. The reason we delay granting match extensions for the latter case is because we are uncertain whether or not they are actually necessary or if the team will be able to work and have gotten in their strategy in anyways. And ideally we want people to work as if they will not be getting an extension to prevent procrastination or effectively squandering time that could have been utilized. Final note as a reminder, turning in a strategy late for a conduct penalty, while it can feel bad, is an option for a reason in the sorts of cases where we cannot grant an extension in good faith. |
The game of modern Senet is simple! Each player has 5 pieces; whomever got all of their pieces off the board first won. The board itself is a 3 by 10 grid, with each piece starting in the first row. Each turn, players roll senet sticks to determine how many spaces they can move one of their pieces. If an opponentâs piece was in the slot they wished to move to, the player could swap the positions of the two pieces. However, if the opponent had two or more of their pieces adjacent to each other, those pieces were âprotectedâ and could not be swapped. Though many of its rules have been lost to time, itâs easy to see why Senet was such a popular game!DĂ©dalo stretched out his fingers and wrists. He had heard that Cullinan enjoyed board games, so he decided that he might as well humor him. This way, he could get on his good side and get the opportunity to ask a few questions.

2023.03.30 01:48 ToadBrigade5 Scizor, Shuckle, & Heracross (Johto Bug Gang!) - Toad's Daily Pokémon Ranking, 212-214
![]() | Introducing... submitted by ToadBrigade5 to pokemon [link] [comments] ...the first Pokémon evolution to not increase BST from it's previous stage! ...the first Pokémon with a field ability (technically). ...the first Pokémon to be treated as a counterpart to a Pokémon in a previous generation (arguably). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 212: Scizor It's the metal Scyther! Scizor is a super cool Pokémon, and I have a friend who actually picked it for their Ace Pokémon! They are considering switching it out for Kingambit though, which I'm rooting for due to my absolute Paldean bias. Be that as it may, I think Scizor is a really cool idea as an evolution that doesn't actually increase a base stat total but instead redistributes it. Unlike many Pokémon evolutions that feel like they invalidate their previous lines, or at least try to be the definitive version of the Pokémon, Scizor and Scyther stand side by side very well, both in terms of being balanced as alternative options to each other, but also visually. The green blades and red claws contrast with a Mario and Luigi esque vibe, and they honestly look like they could star in some show together, and I think it's a neat effect. It'd be cool to see more evolutions like this duo in the future. You honestly can't ruin Scyther, though, it's a giant badass mantis that plays it up perfectly - the appeal is so strong that it would've taken a lot to make Scizor bad. And admittedly... I do think Scizor has to be my least favorite of the trio. The thing is, scissors just aren't scary, and the claws just look less cool than actual mantis scythe blades. But because it adds to Scyther rather than competes with it directly, and because it's still a cool Pokemon all around, Scizor will get a solid B Tier placement. Fanart by Maud Beurskan In case anyone is curious though, my favorite of the Scyther family is Kleavor - but it's going to be a long time until I can talk about that! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 212+: Mega Scizor I'm honestly really lucky I remembered this one existed, to be honest... But I'm really a little upset that Mega Scizor exists but Mega Scyther doesn't. The whole gimmick to these two is that their equal alternates, and yet you treat them differently? But there were a lot of Mega Pokémon that got more than their counterparts did, and it really played a lot into why I didn't like Mega Evolutions in the first place. I still genuinely dislike when gimmicks treat different Pokémon unfairly. The other issue I have with Mega Scizor is... it feels like it misses the mark on where Scizor's appeal is. Scizor is sleek, metal, and agile looking, like a power ranger or battle android, only a bug. By making it blockier and emphasizing the scissors aspect rather than the sleek design of it's claws... it just feels less cool and more like a cringey, edgy reboot with a costume design that looks awkward at almost every angle except the one in the poster. Fanart by Mian If this guys your scene, then hey, more power to you! But it just feels a little off to me, even if I do confess that the blue light is pretty cool and I would've liked to see blue motifs on the original Scizor. Overall though, I don't quite like this one as much but - it's still Scizor. It's not a bad design by any stretch, I just find myself skeptical enough that I can't say I fully like it. As a result, it goes in the C+ Tier with Pokémon I personally feel some reservations for. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 213: Shuckle It's still a bit hard to believe that Shuckle is a real Pokémon and not a meme created by Dorkly, to be totally honest. I really didn't care for the way they treated Shuckle as a comedic bit. Most of it was just unrealistically self referential pathetic humor, with an added slice of gore, and while I didn't really enjoy any of it, it's still the first thing I think of when I see Shuckle. Which is a shame, because it's actually really cute? It's a defense turtle that's actually a bug hiding in a rock with many openings, and it has such a cute smile! What's not to like? It just wants to hang out, hide in it's shell, and make berry juice for it's friends. It's such a cute little dude! Unfortunately, Shuckle is... kind of forgettable which made it into the butt of all those jokes in the first place. Despite having the first ever 'unofficial' field ability to turn berries into berry juice, it kind of lost that gimmick, and since then never got an evolution or was used in a notable way. It just got buried among the sea of single stage Johtonian Pokémon, which is a shame, because like many Johto Pokémon we covered, it had so much potential! Fanart by Masshu In short... I stand with and believe in Shuckle. I want to see this Pokémon come back with a new signature ability and maybe an evolution while it's at it! But as is, I don't feel comfortable ranking it too highly because the only times I really remember it's existence is when it's the butt of a terrible joke. I'm placing Shuckle in the C+ Tier alongside some other comedically driven Pokémon like Alolan Exeggcutor or Gigantamax Meowth - after all, it's just as funny but it's got a good deal more potential. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 214: Heracross Heracross is memorable to me because uh... something something, Heracross is Alpharad's dad? Like many Youtuber in-jokes, I have no idea what they're talking about, but I sure do laugh anyway. I also caught a Shiny Heracross in Pokemon Violet at full odds! I don't talk about Shiny palattes much in this series unless Emi's talked my ear off about them before - I'm not a shiny hunter at heart. I don't see the appeal, admittedly, but if I see one, I'll catch it to trade to my friends. It was still a memorable encounter, spotting it in the bamboo forest like that. As for the Pokémon itself, I... It's kind of just a stag beetle but anthropomorphic and thick. It's colors aren't visually interesting to me, but it looks kind of cool, I guess? But then again, that's just stag beetles in general. I think it's neat, and I appreciate how friendly they manage to make a giant bug. I think it makes a really neat face counterpart to Pinsir's heel, but getting associated with Pinsir doesn't do me any favors honestly. I think in the end, I'm giving Heracross a C+ Tier placement. It exist, I have more positive feelings toward it than not, but I can't deny that it just doesn't have enough for me to say I unambiguously like it. The C+/B tier barrier is a tough one to overcome for me, and I just don't think Heracross has enough, sorry people. Fanart by Polyacryla 214+: Mega Heracross Okay but part of that "it might not have enough" ruling could be bleed over from Mega Heracross. This existed? Yeah uh... I'll be honest, Mega Heracross just looks bad. It ruins the only positive vibes Heracross has going for it, making it try to come across as aggressive and instead creating just another uninteresting bug monster. It's proportions look impractical and the colors just look garish together. I don't outright hate it or anything, but it feels really weak and generic as far as Mega evolutions go. Slightly bigger! Redder! Spikier! And then they call it a day, it seems. C- Tier. Postscript: Big post today! Which of these Pokémon are your favorites? Anything I missed about them?
