![]() Good luck getting a second controller in soloqueue (it doesn't happen).Īs Viper in ranked, you're already forced to use your smoke and wall in unoptimal ways just to cover sightlines that any coordinated team would use an orb controller for. In pro play, on most maps teams that run Viper run her as a secondary controller alongside an orb controller. Maining Viper and playing primarily soloqueue is frustrating. What I'm about to say I feel like is hard to explain to most players, but hear me out: Controllers are relatively inflexible in how they can use their utility, as a role they're generally forced to play for the team and not for themselves. Controllers generally have get less ACS and are lower on the scoreboard (in my experience, in ranked this means that people are more toxic towards you and less likely to listen to anything you have to say). Controllers are extremely difficult to find impact on without a coordinated team and comms. Controllers are punished for making risky plays because if they die then their smokes die with them. There's a reason why in soloqueue no one wants to play smokes. Viper could singlehandedly apply irreplaceable map pressure on a map where defenders only have four relatively small chokepoints to watch (without a Viper on Short).īreeze is fine, but now it's the only map where Viper's unique controller style is useful enough to justify her inflexibility.Ĭontrollers are the least popular class in the game for a variety of reasons. The reason this setup was strong was because it anytime the orb+wall was up, the defenders have no information of if someone could be walking up A-Short or not and need to sacrifice utility to get info. Though Viper couldn't be run as a primary controller on Bind, her main role on attack was to gain A-Short and Lamps control for the team with the orb+wall combo that I think was made famous by Gambit, though I might be wrong. With the 50% increase in fuel drainage rate while having both the orb and wall up at the same time, this makes it much harder for anyone to walk up A-Short during the uptime of Viper's smokes. If possible, having the ability to rotate and have smokes for both sites is much better, in my opinion, than running Viper, this is the tradeoff for being able to block wider sightlines and is what, again in my opinion, kept Viper balanced. I would argue even that it is much better and more flexible to run an orb controller over Viper on Icebox now, as Viper's main weakness as a controller is her inflexibility. Due to the narrowed sightlines, any of the orb smokers (except maybe Astra?) can cover the two main sightlines, which are snowman and top of site. Having a Viper wall for an execute on Icebox B is no longer necessary for getting on site. The main issue with Icebox for Viper now is less to do with the nerfs (though they are painful) and more to do with the B-site changes (where most Vipers call home). (In my opinion the most welcome change is the viability of a mid to B push now that there are boxes that cover the site to mid sightline.) Though the changes on Icebox are mostly beneficial and make it a more functional map. She was balanced by the inflexibility of her utility and inability/difficulty in covering many common smaller sightlines that other controllers can cover with ease. The new act starting on August 24 may roll in with a new map and also an agent, teased as Sprinter.In my opinion, Viper was in a balanced spot pre-nerf and her high pick rate was primarily due to her unique ability to cover long sightlines with her wall, which is necessary on some maps and something no other controller can do. Valorant Episode 3 Act 1 started on June 22 and will run till August 24.Įpisode 3 Act 1 brought a brand new agent Kay/O to the Valorant roster but players are now demanding a new map. This slight buff will help Viper mains squeeze the full juice out of her poisonous toolkit. ![]() However, it put her at a significant disadvantage as she’d mostly lose her ultimate points and HP by activating the ultimate and dying instantly. This wasn’t necessarily a bug since this is how Viper’s ultimate generally worked before the latest patch. The agent will now be able to trigger gas from different angles and cover a large area without revealing her position. This will allow her to remain safe while initiating Viper’s Pit. After patch 3.01, the agent can use her crosshair to determine the starting point of her gas. ![]() Streamer and content creator Lothar discovered that Riot Games has quietly buffed Viper by tweaking her ultimate.

Despite their rage at the WGA and SAG-AFTRA’s asking for more money, they have raised their rates every year since 2017. What are you going to do next? Well, the odds are you realize you control the deck and that the card game is rigged, so why not sit down and deal whatever cards you want? That’s what Netflix is doing. Which, at the end of the day, is why customers are prepared to pay each month.Think of this: You just killed cable. While detractors might see that as a risk to their business, those additional profits (or at least the money that’s not being used for share buybacks), can be used to create more content. We’re seeing the content wars continue to play out, with Netflix doubling down on their plans to increase profits. Those might not sound like massive numbers, but when dealing with millions of subscribers, that extra few dollars a month will potentially add millions to Netflix’s bottom line. ![]() The ad-supported free plan and the standard plans will both stay at their current prices. While in France, the premium plan will be bumped by €2 a month. In the UK the basic plan price will go from £6.99 to £7.99 while the premium plan will go up to £17.99 from the current price of £15.99. ![]() In the US the price for the basic plan will go from $9.99 to $11.99, while the premium plan will be increasing by $3, bringing it up to $22.99 a month. The company has obviously been encouraged by the impact the password sharing crackdown has had on the bottom line, and is looking to push the envelope further to see whether further increasing the cost on consumers will slow subscriber numbers. Netflix has announced at the same time that they’re going to be increasing prices for their non-ad supported tiers in the US, France and the UK. Which, let’s be honest, is like Exxon Mobil saying “We like oil.” Netflix to hike prices againĪlongside all of this good news for investors, was some bad news for customers. "We’re optimistic about our prospects and the future of entertainment," said executives in a statement to investors. Netflix is projecting its revenue to reach $8.7 billion next quarter, slightly below analysts' consensus of $8.78 billion. ![]() While the move garnered its share of negative publicity, in hindsight it appears to have been a prudent move. It’s clear that the password sharing armageddon that had many online forum and social media users announce that they’d be ‘deleting their account’ was overblown. There was also a significant increase in paid subscriptions, with a net addition of 8.8 million, compared to the anticipated 6.1 million. Of course it will remain to be seen how this will impact their library in the next 12 to 18 months, as planned shows will potentially take longer to be released. These numbers were helped by the writers strike, at least in the short term, with the company able to save $1 billion in content costs as development on impacted shows came to a halt. The revenue was reported at $8.54 billion, matching the analysts' forecast of the same figure. Netflix announced profits of $3.73 per share in Q3, surpassing the Wall Street analysts' average prediction of $3.49. Netflix adds 8.8 million subscribers and grows revenue So those same investors (if they’d been brave enough to hold on) will be very pleased with these latest developments. Investors who had bought in at the peak were staring down a 73% loss. By May, the stock price had plummeted to hover around $180. After reaching those heady pandemic heights, it came crashing back down to earth in 2022 as the world went back to normal and had us all spending far less time in front of the TV or tablet. ![]() Consider any adjustments for age or education as specified in the guidelines.Use the official scoring guidelines to calculate the total MoCA score.Adhere to the time limits for each task.Observe and record the individual's responses accurately. ![]() Provide clear and appropriate prompts or cues as needed.Follow the standardized instructions for each task in the MoCA test.Obtain informed consent from the tested individual, ensuring they understand the process and their rights.Introduce yourself and explain the test's purpose in clear, concise language.Gather necessary materials like pens, paper, and a clock or watch.Provide a quiet, distraction-free testing environment.Familiarize yourself thoroughly with the test instructions and scoring procedures.Ensure you have the official MoCA test materials and scoring guidelines.Knowing the date, time, and place involves seamless collaboration between the parietal lobes, responsible for processing sensory information and spatial awareness, and the temporal lobes, where the medial temporal lobe serves as a reliable internal clock and map. Generating words that begin with a specific letter or repeating complex sentences engages the frontal lobes, where Broca's area orchestrates speech production, and the temporal lobes, where Wernicke's area deciphers and interprets language.įinally, the MoCA ensures the mind is anchored in time and space. Language, the intricate dance of words and meaning, also finds its place in the MoCA's spotlight. At the same time, the superior parietal lobule serves as a vigilant stage manager, filtering out distractions and prioritizing relevant information. The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is the vigilant director, sharpening and maintaining focus. Focusing on specific targets amidst distractions, like finding the letter "A" amidst a sea of other letters, relies on the dynamic interplay of the frontal and parietal lobes. Delayed recall shows signs that memory is not functioning as well as it could be.Īttention, the mind's spotlight, is another crucial domain the MoCA assesses. Recalling a string of words minutes later depends on a seamless partnership between the medial temporal lobes, where the hippocampus meticulously stores memories, and the frontal lobes, where the prefrontal cortex acts as a retrieval cue, prompting the hippocampus to release its treasures. Memory, the cornerstone of learning and experience, also takes center stage in the MoCA. Identifying their names depends on the smooth functioning of the temporal lobes, specifically the inferior temporal gyrus, which acts as a visual dictionary, readily matching visual input to stored words. Picture yourself staring at a menagerie of unfamiliar animals. Next, the MoCA probes the realm of naming. Meanwhile, as attentive stagehands, the parietal lobes ensure spatial awareness and visual processing, ensuring the clock face finds its proper place and the cube's intricate design is faithfully reproduced. The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, a conductor within the frontal domain, guides planning and organization, while the premotor cortex orchestrates the precise movements needed to translate thought into action. Imagine the challenge of drawing a clock or copying a cube – these tasks call upon the collaborative efforts of the frontal and parietal lobes. One key area assessed by the MoCA is differences in visuospatial/executive function. But beneath its streamlined efficiency lies an interplay between distinct cognitive domains and the intricate sensitivity and specificity of the human brain. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a powerful tool in the neurologist's toolkit, offering a quick and reliable snapshot of cognitive function. ![]() Imagine this tall, blonde, fully-developed superwoman crawling on all fours toward you like she's going to devour every drop of sex slime that your balls could muster.
