Beastmaster definitely. Roar is the 2nd best single target spell in the game. And aura + the bird are also amazing. Can delay pushes with axes.

Drow offers a silence and then dies. I mean, she dies even WITH items a lot so without no way.

Don't tell me you disagree with his point on whether people should wait till they go to uni in States?


also, feels like CS:GO has reached the Dota level of pausing in each match. Everytime i bother tuning in for these daily/weekly matches, players/teams have issues.

No, I object to his fifteen-minute sequence of pronouncements about Swedish politics, kicked off by an admission that he's totally ignorant.

(And it's also entirely possible to get out of school without debt if you're prepared. I went to a college that charged between $35k and $40k a year and had roughly $5,000 of debt when I graduated. Paid off within a year. It also helps if your degree is in something that will get you hired.)

So basically only study things in university that will get you hired, pay your debt off within a year (given what you are hired for pays well)

Honestly not touching that argument with a 10 foot pole. Best to let it be before it becomes infamously dumb and we devolve into general discussion forum levels of stupid.

EDIT: Is it Community general, or general discussion forum? I don't know the best way to describe that pit of black hell that is apparently a subforum here.

Amusingly, I triple-majored in history, classics and Asian Studies. None of those things are even remotely worthwhile.

On the other hand, a buddy of mine in high school got his Master Electrician's license and is making $150,000 a year.

It just takes a certain amount of foresight and the willingness to look at things rationally and without romance. No matter how many professors tell you otherwise, or how stupid it sounds, a degree in Gender Studies or Creative Writing qualifies you to work as a barista, while a certification in pipefitting guarantees that you'll make enough money to do whatever you want to do for fun.

Quick search on Monster comes up with $70,000 a year + dental/medical, retirement and PTO. Ain't bad for a job you can have out of high school.

In Alaska its way better than that, had a friend who did it our of highschool. You do have to server apprenticeship period or something where you don't make as much. But he made 120k when he was 20.

This is working on the slope though, spend a lot of time away from home.

It's practical to go and study fields that are in high-demand, it's just not the basis of university at all. It's even dumber to reject someone's perspective on university and debt by saying: "all you have to do to avoid paying debt for decades is to study something that pays well"

*let's not forget that the majority of social science jobs do not pay very well at all, especially if you don't pursue a higher degree; thus higher debt.

If people knowingly make shitty decisions, they shouldn't be surprised when those decisions have consequences.

If you take out loans to pay for an expensive liberal arts college, and you get a degree that doesn't have career potential, it is no one's fault but your own that you're stuck in debt. It's no different to buying anything else you can't afford.
