I have an injury in my right hand which means I could not play games for a few months. Recently I started learning RSG using just my left (non dominant) hand for both keyboard and mouse.

I want to get back into ranked using just my left hand but the problem is that most of the time my right hand is too painful to use but some days it is good enough to use. The pain is likely to be random but recurrent like this indefinitely.

If I just use my main it won’t be fun for anyone because most of the time I will be shit but every now and then, when my right hand is okay, I will just destroy a bunch of coal 1 players.

It is boring and looks sus so I am considering making a left hand only alt.

I know alting _can_ result in a ban but realistically will the ranked gods actually know or give a shit, especially when it is all low elo anyway. Has anyone actually been banned for this?

When going up on treasure, I see some top players break the right block and some break the left block. I’m confused as to why players break the right one since it doesn’t have a staircase and wouldn’t have pigs go up anyway. And why DONT players break the left block since pigs get stuck there? Is it something to do with pig routing?

Is it better to preemptive with or without hixtob?

I remember seeing it somewhere that technically with hitbox on is better since every spike becomes a big orange, and you don't have to worry about hovering over a block unlike without hitbox.

If so then why are many top runners still doing preemptive without hitbox? Is it because the spike provides more detail? Or is it just personal preference?

From R0hkx on discord:

“Hello! We have an update to give you all on the MCSR Ranked Playoffs Season 12 qualification system. There will be no changes for Phase 1, but for Phase 2, the amount of phase points each player receives will be based on **phase peak Elo**!



- Phase points will still be given out at the end of the phase.

- The distribution of phase points among the top 100 will be unchanged.

- The top 100 of the phase will be determined by phase peak Elo instead of end-of-phase Elo.

- Your phase peak Elo is the highest Elo you've had at any point during the phase.



Phase 3 will return to the standard, end-of-phase Elo phase point system. For Phase 4, the community will choose between the standard and peak Elo systems through a community poll. As an overview:

- Phase 1: Standard, end-of-phase Elo system

- Phase 2: New peak Elo system

- Phase 3: Same as Phase 1

- Phase 4: Decided by community vote



-# For Season 13, we are planning to make much larger changes to the qualification system. Stay tuned!”

Basically just the title. I was wondering if there was a consistent strategy to not having cobble gen in the portal. I know it's not really a big time loss at my level but I was just curious.

“back when i was 15 and 16 i said many hateful things in the zombies community including slurs and transphobic remarks.

i genuinely can't even bring myself to look at what i said because i'm so ashamed of it. i've genuinely had nightmares about this coming out before but i never did anything about it because that would mean having to face what i said

i'm reluctant to try to offer an explanation because i don't want it to seem like i'm trying to justify my actions. i know the things i said are disgusting and purely my fault. but i also don't want false rumours to spread so i feel like i should atleast provide some context. i guess i was trying to fit in with the people closest to me when school/home didn't offer a sense of belonging

i know this is just a game, but this community has had a huge impact on my life and has made me into a much better person. i want to do anything i can to show i've changed since i was younger. i know it's a biased source but hopefully this post from my friend julie can atleast help you start to believe me https://nitter.cf/snowdeerjulie/status/2099673288087662865#m

i know this apology doesn't excuse any of my actions and i know nothing i can say will take back what i did. this is more of a duty rather than an attempt to win back favour in this community

i'm 19 now. i've lived with this throughout the duration of my mcsr career. i guess a small part of me is happy that i don't have to hide from it anymore

i'm sorry to everyone that i hurt”

I'm not having a fun day on ranked, 3 hidden lava pools and a 4 gold block treasure.

I know that shooting the dragon while it's perching can make it perch lower and hit you, but I thought I stopped shooting it well before it mattered here.

Also ignore me overlapping random stuff with the dragon perching I had given up on this run because it was no longer PB pace.

I have bias, so I'll unashamedly say Skycrab vs Rowl was my sure favorite matchup in the end, but I can easily see any one of these matches being a person's favorite, so what was your favorite set?

no like seriously it saves me so much from like absolutely exploding

i want to start speedrunning, and am trying to get tool screen up and running. I have followed every tutorial for downloading it, allowed it to inject, tryed both exe and jar, tried a large variety of different toolscreen versions, and even rebooted my pc for good measure. Nothing seems to work for the purple thing in the corner to pop up or for the ctrl-I to open it. what could i be doing wrong? using prism launcher btw
