    Unfortunately I don't think I've used either of those weapons... Please refer to my self-referenced "Filthy Casual" nature.

    I've been wondering that too. Maybe it's a Canadian thing.

    What is your alcohol of choice? And do you homebrew? (Cheesemaking is a homebrew. I think. Many of the homebrew places sell cheesemaking stuff).

    I have participated in homebrewing beer with friends, but have not successfully undertaken the endeavor on my own (I did try once with a kit, but we failed miserably, so I don't count it).

    My alcohols of choice proceed in the following order:

    Islay Scotch Whisky
    Bourbon
    Irish Whiskey
    Single malt Scotch from Speyside or Highlands
    Blended Scotch
    Beer
    Wine
    Liquor that isn't whisk(e)y

    Ooh, nice. What's your favorite scotch? I get Ardbeg and Laphroaig once in a while and wouldn't mind adding something to the usual Islay picks.

    Laphroig 10 is my go-to because of the price here. I really like Ardbeg, Lagavulin, Caol Isla, and Oban 18 when I can get it.

    Couple of questions:

    Who is the strongest?

    What do you think of the new melee system in WF? Quickly switching between guns and full melee.

    Your favorite non-meta weapon? The one you find satisfying enough to use that you don't care if it's effective or not.

    Fixed that for you.

    Do you even so far as to want that if you like?

    I'm a big fan of Warframe too although I tend to play it off and on as new content gets released. Are there any other games you are interested in besides Warframe? There are no wrong answers here.

    And just fyi, we have a dedicated Warframe subforum for any related needs:

    I stick to three games generally speaking, Warframe, Overwatch, Rocket League. I'll add some honorable mentions, though. I occasionally pop in to No Man's Sky just to see what's going on there. I'm one of the few who actually liked the first release, and the updates have made it much better. My kids play Minecraft, so I do that with them sometimes. My youngest likes Slime Rancher, which is a cute and fun game that I play with her sometimes. I enjoy a good ol' Mario Kart/Mario Party/Smash Bros. party with friends. And when I get nostalgic, I'll fire up an emulation or remaster of Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, or Final Fantasy Tactics.

    Saitama is strongest.

    I don't notice much of a change in the new melee system, which is exactly how I wanted it to be. Seamlessly switching to combos is fantastic.

    I don't really follow the meta, I just use weapons that feel strong. Mutalist Cernos? It was the first Riven I rolled back in the day, so I acquired it and built it out. I sometimes break it out because those gas clouds are so fun.

    I will say this too about meta weapons: I don't like the Tigris Prime. I think it's clunky and slow. Sure it does good [single-target] damage, but there are a ton of weapons that can do that now, especially since snipers got that buff last year. I recently had the choice to put a potato in either my Tigris Prime, or my Arca Plasmor. Needless to say, I did not choose wisely.

    Close enough...

    And getting Rivens for random weapons can be fun and refreshing. Got Riven for Grinlok when it was buffed and then Prisma Grinlok came out. Damn good rifle. For perspectives sake, I have Riven for Tiberon P, Pyrana P and Akjagara P and still like using Prisma Grinlok over those.
