.: Just to update, I always failed at predicting - particularly DotA2 Compendium predictions. Data is out there, but my inexperience with data sampling and arithmetic stuff makes me looking for other ways to participate in this annual event, the TI8.
Here comes the scrub, aka SavageSkillet : The guys who excels at TI7 compendium predictions last year in reddit. Not to say he's a pro in leaking predictions, but like Apple or Samsung leakers, this scrub SavageSkillet don't have inside guys to feed him info. So, if you have similar inexperience mathematical stuffs like me you might want to follow his predictions too.
Here it goes,
2018 DotA2 TI8 Compendium Hero Predictions
and,
2018 DotA2 TI8 Compendium Tournament Predictions
While I do agree with SavageSkillet arguments and data mining, the one I love is Hero with the most GPM avg : which I absolutely picks Alc as my #1 predictions. This is the easiest prediction ever. Lol~
Long story short, as I browse some anime site out there I found an old school crush of mine : a new Digimon animu appeared. Yes yes yessssszaaa~~ X-D
As today October the 17th, it's already aired the third episode so far, and I found it to be pretty good. I just love the drawing style, the design, the sfx, while at the same time I had this love-hate vibe watching the MC struggling on how to be a really good MC. Why the Taichi "Tai" Kamiya Digimon Adventure Tri psychological trait has to be inherited momentarily in this season too? Whyyyyyy???
I will restart my post again. I'm so sorry for jumping here and there.
My own noob description: As DigiMon is the short form of Digital Monsters, like Pokemon is Pocket Monsters, Digimon Universe: Appli Monsters is another innovative twist from the original concept of their early pioneer Digimon anime, because Digimon exists in other universe too.
Screenshot of Digimon Universe: AppMon website (Japan)
In the old pioneer anime, Digimon comes from the real Digital World. In this latest seventh tv series installments Digimon now comes from our smartphone apps.
"The digital part implies that their monster exists in digital world, so anything that is digital can turn into or it's already has monsters in it." - Neat concept eh? Hehe.
I don't really know if this anime continues from Digimon Adventure Tri, but the story gives off this 2015/2016 aura with the smartphone apps bloom thingy. If it really comes from the year 2045, I think the concept would be everyone is wearing Google Glass or virtual reality headset. And Digimon should be presented in augmented or virtual reality gadgets.
Maybe that will come in as the next Digimon anime concept - VirtualReality Monsters, or VRMon. Lol~
Carry on, the internet comments filled with mostly hate about this anime. As some diehard fans would say that this Appmon is not the real Digimon, for me I think it was a fresh new idea to deviate a little from the normal Digimon anime route.
By the way, the Appli Monsters comes from Application Monsters (hence it from the smartphone app), with the other shorthand name for it is Appmon. Pardon me for the late heads up.
Why restrict ourselves with just one idea, if you literally have tons and tons of new exciting digital monsters? As long as they're digital, it really has the Digimon genetic in it.
Or take it like movies in the cinema. Reboot of Spiderman movie, Batman movie, Superman movie, Red Riding Hood movie, Cinderella movie, blah blah blah, they all have some new innovative way to tell the same story from another point of view. So, it's the same thing happen to this Digimon Appmon anime.
I acknowledge and appreciate innovation and creativity. But this Digimon Appmon anime is beautifully drawn compared to this one season damn I forgotten what it's name is, but it was really, awfully, badly drawn...
Digimon anime drawing styles that I like in order from the best to medium is:
Digimon Universe: Appli Monsters (of course),
Digimon Adventure Tri (really close in term of styles there),
Digimon the Movie (oh the memory lane).
Other Digimon anime I didn't cared much because it was not aired in my youthful time. Lol. Maybe later, lolled again.
And to conclude my lengthy post, as always, here is a multitude of things I want to share or embed in this single blog post. Feel free to visit them, if you're occasional Digimon fans like me, you might want to watch Digimon Appmon now~~ X-D

.: Was skimming Youtube popular music playlist until I stumbled...
David Hasselhoff - True Survivor (from Kung Fury)
That 180 degrees side split, that lambo...
I dunno what kind of epicness watching Hasselhoff doing his 80's music video but that Kung Fury is just...
KUNG FURY Official Trailer [HD]
Permit-ticcally denied~~ Hahaha X-D
I thought it will be worldwide movie like Avengers - Ultron movie, but sadly it was a 30 minutes free-to-download Kickstarter movie. And it will be 2007-ly real feature movie if you help to achieve their 2015 goal, which is to join making this Kung Fury $ 1,000,000 goal become a reality !
So who's Sargeant Rex Colt and Dillon Markey???
Sgt Rex Power Colt is a robo-ball from Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon.
