    I'm starting to feel the people who point out Tychpos should be the one to pay a fine, because I have never noticed one in my fifteen years of reading the comic.

    I was hoping to get it out of the way so we could talk about the comic. How foolish I was.

    Today was the first I've heard of Koga. Judging by the description, I assume he's a flank champion. Hi-Rez loves them OP flankers :P

    Wait... so a game called Paladins has ninjas in it?

    That's false fucking advertising right there.

    Definition of paladin
    1 : a trusted military leader
    2 : a leading champion of a cause

    "The Kōga ninja were recruited by shōgun Tokugawa Iemitsu against Christian rebels led by Amakusa Shirō, who made a final stand at Hara Castle, in Hizen Province."

    Turnbull, Stephen (2003), Ninja AD 1460–1650, Osprey Publishing, ISBN 978-1-84176-525-9

    They were both trusted military leaders and champions of a cause.

    I thought Paladins was a game that did not do very well and was pretty widely panned. Was that not the case, or is it just that G&T love them some arena shooters so much that they play all of them?

    What is this I don't even.

    Ninjas (though I'm sure Koga is Magistrate and not a Paladin)
    Turtle Gods
    Golems
    Little... Bunny Person(?) wizards that ride doofy two headed turtles
    Ents
    Cat obsessed French-ish OP rogues
    Orcs
    A Space Marine

    Paladins has it all baby!

    Paladins had the misfortune of releasing its beta pretty close to when Overwatch came out I think. Everyone wrote it off, but it's actually a pretty decent hero shooter. It doesn't have quite the level of polish that Blizzard can give their game, but I kinda prefer Paladins myself.

    G&T made quite a bit of fun of Paladins when it first launched, but they've said in the stream (and I think news posts) that it's quite a different beast today.

    Sounds like someone that Grimm Shado would team up with. When they're not fighting each other. Or having a romantic subplot with each other.

    Paladins are, by definition, lawful stupid. And that is why Ninjas can never be one, since they are totally sweet.

    I refer you to OOTS in how this is in fact demonstrably false.

    IIRC, Paladins is the decent one that's done alright.

    Gearbox's Battleborn is the hilarious trash fire of the genre, which died instantly and lead to the director peddling porn of it on Reddit to try to salvage some hype.

    The only way that picture could be more 90s is if it had Cable and Spawn flanking him.

    Battleborn was a great game as well. It also held firm to its very close to Overwatch release date, and since everyone already decided Overwatch was the best, no one wanted to give it a chance. I'm sure the Colonial Marines debacle didn't help things either. Gearbox tried to hard to push the competitive MOBA-esque mode, when they should've focused more on the excellent singleplayer/co-op content.

    It doesn't take much to hurt your soul, huh?
