    89Mbps on my OnePlus 5 in this apartment in Nice.

    This post is really just an excuse to brag over the fact that I got a OnePlus 5. I think I get around 120 in Dublin, which ain't half bad.

    Is the OnePlus5 any good? I'm using a OnePlus2 currently but I fucked up the screen really badly and probably will upgrade in the next few months but have heard bad things about the OnePlus5s camera and value compared to the 3t.

    Exactly as venga said, I feel people thinking that the JB server lost popularity cause we didn't have enough fancy plugins or whatever, and all it takes is a bit of work and we would have a great server again. This isn't really the case, JB is a game mode that requires personalities to make it fun and interesting. You can a massive store, a shed load of maps, loads of add ons and plug ins but if you get some autistic 10 year old screeching first reaction last reaction or simon says for hours on end people are gonna be like nah fuck that. 

    I do agree with the fact that Jailbreak is made up by the players, and that's what originally got me into Outbreak; the stark contrast in personalities of the players.

    Despite this there are some things that I believe a modern Jailbreak server needs to keep up with popular competition and some of the plugins were clearly outdated or broken making the game unplayable for some people.

    Passion isn't there with the people with power. There's a reason other JB servers are still very active and OB isn't. If enough was done new players would constantly be attracted to the server and regulars (myself included) would absolutely still play.

    Probably agree with this, unless, as Skeff said it's decided it's not what we want as a community then maybe this is a good idea, but Jailbreak brought a lot of people here and life is busy for a lot of people at the moment, there is a possibility if the work is done by people then the it might have a resurgence in the summer.

    Do people play jailbreak?

    No but exam season is in full force and I'm sure Jailbreak will get a boost in players post exams.

    @Cereal Don't do 3x5 / 5x5 if you want to grow in size, i'd recommend sticking in 8-12 honor range for that.

    What helps while doing your deadlifts: Engage your core ---> squeeze your abs as hard as possible, push your chest out and your shoulders back, try to keep your head aligned with your spine, fully go up and squeeze your ass and abs, push from legs, vary your grips, take off your shoes(helps me), of course keep your spine neutral, breath in at the bottom ---> hold while going up --> blow out near top. Most important part is controlling your negative, keep that in mind. Goodluck

    I'm doing 5x5 for my compound lifts as I'd like to improve strength overall. I'll make sure to follow the steps you say, I've tried it with my shoes off, but personally I find it easier with them on as I don't struggle getting low enough to get the bar. Are the things you suggested general or based on the video?

    Hunter deck looks fine, you should craft savannah highmane it's an absolute beast and you can replace the multi-shots with them. Starving buzzard isn't that good, maybe replace it with another scavenging hyena.

    I've never played murloc decks so I can't really say much on that but it looks good.

    Crafted 2 Highmanes, replaced 1 multishot and my starving buzzard for them. Should I replace the Snipe or the last multishot for another hyena?

    Midrange hunter without Highmanes :sniff:

    Try to change some stuff, make it look as much as you can like this deck:

    as for the murloc deck:

    - get rid of the draw you don't need it (cult master, novice, loot hoarder, mana tide totem..)

    - i dont rly agree with 2 bloodlusts but its fine

    - get rid of hex , you can keep one if you really need it to get rid of some huge taunt or something

    - search up some murloc decks for any other replacements idk what cards/ how much dust u have and im not rly into murlocs

     

    For Hunter

    Added 2 Savanna Highmanes, unfortunately I can't afford the Rat Pack or the Crabs, but I don't come up against loads of pirate warrior or murloc paladin at rank 16 lol. 

    For Murloc

    I was in the process of trying to remove my novices and my mana tide totem but idk what for.

    I've looked around and most of the Shaman Murlock run 2 Hexes, it seems to work well for me.

    Should I possibly invest in Bilefin Tidehunters? or Blowgill Snipers? They're common so I could probably quite easily get them. I have a Sated Threshadon but idk if it's any good.

    Not going to comment on the murloc deck except to say that Murloc Paladin is a much better deck.

    Your hunter needs a lot of changes. You NEED rat packs and Savannah Highmanes. Absolute sick cards. 

    Remove the stubborn Gastropod, buzzard and multi shots. The snipes can also go. You're playing too many answers for a deck that aims to seize control of the board and kill the opponent. Need to focus more on cards that get you board presence and damage on face.

    Next to go are snipe, the timber wolves and the nesting rocs. Then the vicious fledgling.

    Here is a deck that is widely agreed as the strongest version right now. 

    http://www.vicioussyndicate.com/deck-library/hunter-decks/midrange-hunter/janetzkys-crab-midrange-hunter/

    100% craft the rat packs and Highmanes ASAP. You can live without the crabs but they help you a lot vs pirate warriors and quest rogues.

    Crafted the Savannah Highmanes, and am going to save some dust for the rat packs, seen them on streams and they look really fun. I crafted 2 Highmanes, replaced 1 multishot and my starving buzzard for them.

    I could probably get rid of my other multishot and my Gastropod for a 2nd Alleycat and a 2nd Hyena?

    I'm pretty poor as I'm a relatively newer player so the crabs and the Grandmother might take some time to get a hold of, but I really appreciate the help, I'll keep that deck saved for newer reference.

    He's doing the main compounds so there's nothing wrong with using machines, just gotta get deadlifts down.
    What about them are you struggling with? Record yourself from the side during a set perhaps.

    I struggle keeping my back neutral throughout the exercise, am I also told I'm lifting too much with the curve of my back to begin with (Making my spine not neutral) then lifting with my legs after. I'll try and get you video of my weedy self trying this next time I'm with a friend at the gym.

    Don't train legs and not do cardio. having a set cardio day will increase your endurance. more endurance = more gym 

    I'm going to start swimming after my exams as well as hopefully joining the Rugby team in 6th form college.

    Would you use 5x5 for my compound lifts?

    Okay, so through advice, after following the Lyle McDonald Generic Bulking Program for a few months, I've decided to switch again to a PPL 6 day program (push, pull, legs), just because I felt like I wasn't going to the gym often enough and getting the correct volume, as well as not training my back enough. This program should help with that (hopefully).

    After a bit of searching I found this. The general idea is to have a push day where you're training your chest, triceps and shoulders, a pull day where you train your back and biceps, and a leg day. 

    8e744f3e9f572f0ed74f972894c823cc.png

    I adapted it to my abilities but didn't change it too much apart from substituting hammer curls for pull ups, and dumbbell incline for barbell incline bench press (all the barbell benches are always taken at my gym). I have been attempting deadlifts, but my form is really lacking, so I'm going to try and work on them separately on a really low weight <40kg, and hopefully end up incorporating them into Pull day, but for now I'm going to leave them. I also recently hit a 70kg squat and a 55kg bench (looking to get it to 60kg before June), and am going switching to 5 reps per set should increase my strength to build this up a little. I know these are baby weights, but I really feel like I'm getting into the swing of things, and enjoying weight training.

    I just wanted to post this here for any feedback/help.

    Thanks for reading.

    This is sooo much better than the old videos you put out, the editing, actual clips and syncing the kills to the music were sooo much better. You even got the slow motion bang on at 2:22. I'm proud of you, these are gonna be really really good soon.

    Hey friends.

    I've been in Crete where it's cold and the only form of entertainment is my phone. It's not great NGL. Because of this, i have started Hearthstone again for the first time since 2015 with the help of my 12 year old little brother. I've realised his help probably isn't the highest quality and you guys probably are better. He quickly made me a 'miracle rouge' deck and i think I'm down to 21 with it after a few hours. I was wondering if you guys had any recourses or help you could give me.

    Thanks for this event, probably coming from a slightly biased viewpoint, but I thought the teams were well put together and they weren't too imbalanced. Nick and Sovman were really strong but I think you're under-evaluating how well Wurdy and LK turned up, especially for a GN4 and DMG, there wasn't one game where either of them really played badly, and I think blaming our team's success on entirely the pre-made teams, and not how well people actually played and the form they were in is unfair.

    Thanks for the tourney, really well organised and ran smoothly.
