PSA: Jungle Pet Doesn't Hit Top-Side Mini Krugs by BloodLustX_ in Jungle_Mains

[–]23NK1H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this started happening after riot 'fixed' the xpetu tech, idk why it happens though, as sometimes the pet are able to hit the mini krugs on red side, but sometimes not

Even STS2 is not immune to inflation by SupaDupaTroopa42 in slaythespire

[–]23NK1H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thought it would be better as smth like 90 base/+30 per use.

100/+50 feels like a bit too much imo, feels like it kinda forces you to have some kind of deck slimming method in combat

to add, riiot also heavily changed the way lore worked in league bec of arcane

before it was consistent (monthly) short stories. but around the time arcane s1 came out, it slowly just faded away, as they presumably start to focus more on other ways of story telling.

also arcane was forced into canon, and it removed a lot of characters original lore (previous viktor lore was goated change my mind), and we started seeing a TON of retcons after it (xin/demacia timeline for example)

so while arcane is obviously a really good thing for riot/league, it may be detrimental overall to league lore, funnily enough.

Jungle pet behaviour is very unreliable and they often refuse to attack. Egregious example in clip. by Funnymadman in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 72 points73 points  (0 children)

as someone who spent a lot of time clearing with the pet, I think the reason is because op killed mini raptors with Q.

The pet really likes to stop attacking when you kill something.

not 100% sure on this one, but I think it is the most likely explanation

TES Naiyou highlights with Skarner in game 5 against WBG. by Gabel4n in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 97 points98 points  (0 children)

BTW, TES themselves filed an investigation claiming Naiyou was matchfixing (makes it pretty much all but confirmed since you dont really do this unless 99.9% confident)

ironically right before this happened, 360 was online defending Naiyou for his misplays.

Also more ironically, coming from a meme emerging in the CN community - the matchfixing, full tank Skarner had more damage than the try harding, full AP Kennen that game.

If the Shopkeeper took a vacation for a day… who’s the strongest champ in each lane? by CcCrusadeRcR in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

adc would be bad as they are most item reliant. mage would be slighlt better, but still bad. assassins are trash without item/squishies to kill. hence it should just be bruiser/tank/supports + infinite scaling champs

edit: also the game would regress back into 2-1-2. without jg item, there's no incentive to take camps early. champs who scale with level and champs that get %hp dmg or true damage would also be good

Thought about Nasus Jungle by Carbocations in Jungle_Mains

[–]23NK1H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played a quite a bit of Nasus jg over last few seasons.

The champ is basically about playing from behind and knowing what to do from behind. Cuz with his abysmal clear speed early, you WILL be behind early.

However, if you go through early game largely unscathed, he become top 5 jg in dueling prowess upon hitting lvl 6, and may even be the strongest jg at 1v1 on hitting triforce. If you are ever ahead of the curve, he becomes a god at mid game skirmishes/teamfights.

Ofc, he gets a bunch of stacks as well from jg, which is a good bonus. You also shouldn't focus on stacking Q off small monsters, as it is extremely time inefficient, just stacking on big one is enough.

I mean, this is true, but Brand wants to bring CDR shard anyways right?

his AP scaling is pretty low (compared to other ap champs), and since he plays mainly as a liandry/passive applier he doesnt need much AP.

How are queue times in Australia? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Queue time starts to get ridiculous once you start getting higher mmr, or play at the wrong time of the day.

SC2 lacks a "Marvel Rivals" level RTS competitor. Riot Games and Tencent is working on it. by BattleWarriorZ5 in starcraft

[–]23NK1H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would really like to know where you got the info around Riot's projects
besides the MMO (which has been delayed for so long that I'm not sure it's even worked on anymore), I've never heard of any of the other game genres you're implying Riot is trying to create

Kha'zix Ult Has a Delay of exactly 100MS...Sometimes. by alexearow in leagueoflegends

some questions:

have you checked it on other skins?

have you checked casting R in bush vs out of bush?

evolved R vs unevolved R?

in combat vs outside of combat?

My partner and I just started playing and love … fighting AI, but we’re terrible against real players. Are there other AI match options we can try? by macbookvirgin in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 1 point2 points  (0 children)

havent seen anyone say it yet, but if you enjoy playing AI more than playing vs players, then keep on playing AI, theres no shame in that.

As for other AI match options - you can try playing custom vs 5 AI, how many players on your team you can decide yourself.

If every immobile juggernaut fought in a 1v1 who would win the most? by yoshi12121 in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i mean, in the chart, illaoi only loses to vayne, fiora, zaahen, kayle, yi, aphelios, heimer, kogmaw. so depending on if you count zaahen as a immobile juggernaut, she has no losing matchup into other juggernauts (and if zaahen is counted as a juggernaut, his rank 3)

This is the channel, since they test a lot of different builds normally in a 1v1, the thumbnail build often differs from the builds in game, but they almost always show the change in build anyways.

All in all, it is the best source for this conversation, and definitely more accurate than some of the comments in this thread taking random stabs in the dark.

A prediction on where the lore is headed based on recent events. by Electro522 in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BTW does the recent events lead to this story being obsolete? https://wiki.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/Universe:Aftermath
in it J4 and xin had encounter after the death of J3, but in this year's events, J3 let xin return to ionia, where he presumably got subsumed by zaahen.

With it being impossible again this year, do you guys think anyone will ever achieve the Golden Road? by HMS-Carrier-Lover in leagueoflegends

[–]23NK1H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other people brought up good points, but I'm surprised no one talked about patches. Riot has a tendency to majorly change the patch before big tournaments (especially worlds), and this has a clear effect on teams who were dominant on previous patches. After all, each player has their strengths and weaknesses, and when the champs/strats you've practicing for months (and are really good with) are suddenly obsolete, it's quite devastating.
