If I'm not dumb, in Fire Emblem, attacks have a higher chance of hitting if the one attacking is faster than the target, and lower if the one attacking is slower.

*Looks at clock*

Not that I'm complaining, but why is this comic posted so early?

Don't forget. Dart is an axe user. Guy uses swords.

The joke is that Dart has a very low skill stat and therefore always misses, even when he is aiming at a stationary target that is right in front of him.

I'm sorry, but I can't find this page actually funny.

I get it, "Dart has low skill", but an in-game stat that keeps units from hitting each other should not correlate to simple motor functions or hand-eye coordination. I'm reminder of how Yahtzee compared it to making "jokes" about how walking requires legs in reality and control sticks in video games.

Found the comic idea! I'm sorry, is this Omnithea's job?

Not to mention, the swordmaster's dodge animation show them barely moving. They're pretty much backing up slightly like an anime highschooler dude in a fight he doesn't take seriously.

And don't worry, even with that 18% hit rate he's bound to get it eventually.

Ah, good times. Guy was so top tier back then, my favorite unit by far.

Location: That.. is actually a VERY good question.. Help?
While I don't think it's a bad comic, all this does is remind me of Evasion in elsword and how it's being removed for how dumb it is.

Now all that someone has to do is edit Dad and Gas in, with Dad trying to grab the gas.. except he can't. HE CANNOT HAVE THE GAS.

Also double posts make me cringe.

Your life must be super fun.

Incidentally, it's been a while since I've seen a Yahtzee video or read his blog. If you wouldn't mind providing a link or googlable reference, por favor.

He does update his blog, it's just very sporadic when he does. His ZP videos are weekly, but the one Trueblade is specifically mentioning is the Webcomic episode from way back. Also, there's his Youtube account.

Also, I think someone hasn't seen the marketing used for Flash Focus.

Thanks. I am aware they still exist, and the blog I was referring to was Extra Punctuation on the escapist site, not his own. It is very easy not to realize it exists with the way the Escapist was set up. I just haven't bothered to keep up with them since it started feeling like a job to do so.
