CMLVI

Championship game needs to be called the Battle for Buc-ees

I was hoping Vialle blew Deegan out of the line. He's too clean with it, Deegan would have blasted him if he didn't jump off the track

Commercials during the race? Thought we were done with this.

Back to the Lawrence show. We had a 1 week break lol

Shirking my duties a lil.

Sexton disappointing follow up, JCoop looking really good, but gap dropping quick.

Going through the catch up missions, 2 campaign missions, and 1 onslaught game got me about to it. I think I'm 1943?

Yes and no. I love me some long form videos. 10 hours might be much. I played through the catch up missions on the timeline last night and got through a mission or two from Final Shape. I'm worried I fall back into the same issue as before, so much content is relevant and not at the same time. Like I need X weapon or exotic from a dungeon, but I need to run Y raid to get gear to do it. But I'm not leveled for raid, so I need to run strikes. But now strikes are recommended at 1945 light, which I don't think I am yet, so I gotta do random shit til I can run strikes, to run a raid, to run a dungeon, to get into the content.

Not that that is the case, it's just so much to consider with minimal knowledge going in.

I think that was the intent. OP is also the OP of that thread lmao. Maybe he also just wants us to know?

Awesome, thank you! I think I watches his video for the expansion through to Beyond Light as well, iirc.

Anyone got info on how to "catch up" the story in game? I don't think I've played since Shadowkeep at worst, and Beyond Light at best.

I don't know if I'd even add anything to this. Jett leaving the door open, Sexton and Pless looking solid, as well as Anderson to a point. J Coop as well, he deserves some praise, as does Hunter. Deegan good, Vialle slightly disappointing. Triumph having a really solid run so far, and if anything, I'm curious how Savatgy or Swoll would do on an established team right now. Swoll has always shown flashes, just not consistent, but he seems to be a solid top 10 right now. Savatgy should be hovering around top 5.

Thoughts post-race watch last night.

Lawrence still hasn't shown any specific vulnerability, but Sexton looked pissed moto 2. Obviously this year is going to be different than last, but last year started out as a bummer because so many guys were out. It's sorta the same story this year, with Tomac and Webb, but still. Good to see Anderson looking stronger at times too. J. Cooper also looks real solid, and it's hard to not mention Hunter as well. I always wondered if he would ever be able to "match" Jett and it looks like he is probably 95% there. Honda has two solid AF riders, just wonder if they'll take pay cuts to stay on the same team.

Deegan is like the Gen Z Plessinger, but I can't help but think every action is a clout chasing thing and not a genuine action like with Pless. I don't like the Deegan family brand, so by extension I don't like Haiden much, but he looks a league above the others. Vialle real disappointing this round too, which is wild to say with a moto win, but 4th shouldn't be where he is. Savatgy with bike issues likely ruined another good weekend for Triumph with Swoll 8-8 and him 35-7. Also, 13 (!) 250 riders did not start moto 2, which is wild.
