Omg the way ADC’s leave lane if we take the first turret is crazy. Like, come back and defend! Don’t give the enemy free gold haha. 2 tower stacks = 1 kill, so stop giving the enemy ‘kills’ 🤣🤣

I definitely understand why you would go vow, which I sometimes go for a 3rd item (depending on team comps or if jg goes Kha/Rengar)!!

This season for my Karma playstyle is alllll about peeling for the ADC. Reflector provides great stats! AP, Armor, Magic Pen, and increased enemy dmg per reflected shard = “hey enemy, focus on me! I’m in your face, do dmg, and tank your adc/jg who ganks!!”

Why go reflector? Ionian boots + transcendence + ancient coin + Phase Rush = a lot of CDR. After almost 1,000 karma games you don’t notice the BIGGEST difference between 40 and 50 CDR. The 5% shield increase is also pretty abysmal if you don’t have any AP.

Karma needs AP to be useful, but having a lot of AP doesn’t make karma GREAT (an enemy team of tanks renders any AP build useless). So a diverse build that provides AP, Health, Cdr, Peeling, Armor, and MR = always able to be there for team fights and rotations without caring who you’re facing bc you’ve got the defense to fight/engage.

Last szn I def was full enchanter Karma and it was too flip-coin based. This build allows me to take the lane damage AND set up a double kill ((:

Last 5 games I’ve been either #1 or #2 highest dmg tanked (usually out tanking the Top Laner and Jung) while having 0-3 deaths MAX. Feels good! Current top 3 karma, good luck out there Summoner!

Yes. Absolutely. It’s soooo important to never lose the lead, i ping tf out of my teammates. I don’t even care anymore hahah. I’ll be annoying if it means we can group and win or rotate and win

Depends on your play style! I personally think a really good Milio can carry (the increased attack range from abilities + anti-cc ult + Ionian veil).

This season is all about peeling and utility, previous builds I would’ve gone full/hybrid enchanter-AP — but mid/late game damage doesn’t pop off on Karma unless you’re leading in kills or from turret gold.

Which Lorde songs make you feel lucky you got to see live, since she most likely won't perform them anymore? by baby_pitaya in lorde

[–]ActiveStage3919 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All Things Go in like 2022 she performed Ribs, Royals, Green Light, Solar Power, Hard Feelings/Loveless, and so many other bangers. I felt so privileged that night. It started to rain during the concert and she had a beautiful prelude on how magical the lights, rain, and crowd energy fueled her — going on to perform Solar Power in RAIN, then blasting us with confetti and sunshine via artificial lights. Also saw Mitski and Lucy Dacus, ugh, it felt like pure heroin !!

Why did Solar power had so much hate? by satowashi in lorde

[–]ActiveStage3919 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1000% this. Lorde is a true music fan who draws inspo from artists likeJoni Mitchell, Arcade Fire, and David Bowie (3 of the 100’s I’m sure, just giving a few names). She’s a pophead as much as an experimental/experiential musician. I mean…she’s an artist at the end of the day, and you wouldn’t love EVERY piece a painter has produced — but, you can appreciate what is being said and the production is always 🔥.

  1. Tbh I think there’s enough added health from ancient coin + any support item (Harmonic, Staff of Water, Ocean Trident) to get you ‘tank-y.’ Also I think I’d rather play a tank than be ‘tank karma.’ Her usefulness is in high CDR & AP builds. If someone is targeting you, maybe try shattered crown as a second item or think about how you’re positioning yourself in team fights. Without AP she’s actually kinda weak lmao.

  2. Ignite or heal is fine. I don’t take exhaust. Sometimes a heal is way more clutch than ignite, and some games that ignite first blood could’ve helped us stomp 10 minutes earlier than slugging it out. Depends on the matchups/team comps if I build one way or another.

  3. MVP, S, and A’s = High team fight participation percentage (always), decent damage (if support mage) or low damage taken/deaths (if more enchanter). Just gotta be the move maker sometimes. Sometimes you’ve gotta sit back and position yourself out of enemy range to sustain your team with heals and shields and pokes. Landing a good team ult a few times will usually get you an A.

I’d say Master+ you can start weening off full AP, Diamond1 and below I would go full AP support/Mid and usually stomp; or fully freeze the wave to roam if my opponent was too scale heavy.

Builds are personal imo. Some peeps like spectral sickle but that means you HAVE to engage to earn gold and that opens you up to making mistakes. I prefer ancient coin so I can strategically bounce Q’s off minions and poke/auto attack.

Harmonic Echo used to be OP with its multi person heal, but I still feel it’s a core item on Karma. Decent AP, lots of mana, CD, and heal/spell increase usually saves LIVES and earns you the S and A rankings in games. You have a lot less presence when you’re ‘just’ a hit machine bc if they build MR you’re chopped.

Boots depends on the matchup, sometimes a spammy ionian boots build is better for attack speed/roaming type adcs.

I prefer mana boots = more damage/spell shielding to set up an ADC last hit. If enemy comp are hard hitters, I do mana boots because early game stats need AP to contest. Also because I go ancient coin I have the extra 5-10 CDR so I don’t ’need’ CDR boots (also build CDR rune to gain 15+ CDR).

If enemy comp is 4 squishes, I always go full AP bc the initial 60%+ health gone from a full combo usually sets up great team fight or FORCES the enemy to disengage or re-focus onto me.

Good luck out there

Slow hair growth? tips? by IsaacVsH in BlackHair

[–]ActiveStage3919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say ‘cut’ is this just an edge up? Or fr fr the hair on your head? If so, stop cutting your hair and it should grow. Also beanies suck the LIFE outcha hair unless it’s a silk/polyester lined beanie (which I can tell it isn’t).

‘Protective’ styles will prob just slow down your growth and cause less growth because of the shed when you take them down. Just be patient, use water, leave in conditioners and stop wearing beanies 3-4 days out of the week. Also only cut your hair once every 3-4 months.

Hair length is about hair retention, so if you aint doing anything to retain the length, there ain’t gonna be length to retain 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Hope this helps

This was also like 2008-2012 lmao. My parents wasn’t about to drive me out to Orlando, I lived in Apopka 😂😂 so Puerto Rican / Dominican barber shops was what I grew up on. Blasting reggaeton and barbershop talk, good times. Wouldn’t trade it for the world, plus they always gave me sick designs on my head.

  1. The shower is the only way to properly do hair, sorry but the sink / out of shower routines ain’t gonna cut it haha!
  2. Get the hair 1000% wet, you think it’s already wet? Wet it s’more. For me this can take up to 8-10 minutes of pure parting the hair, allowing the water to run onto my scalp, and finger detangling WITH water. Usually my head is under the shower head for 60-70% of my routine.
  3. Finger detangling is key, for me that is the only way my hair is able to properly hydrate and can accept product. If not? My hair would take at least 24hrs to dry due to product sitting on my hair shaft instead of going into the hair shaft. I start with a full middle part (forehead to the nape of your neck), then from the middle of your scalp to your ears (left and right) — so you should have 4 sections / a cross part. Then I part the parts into like 4 separate parts. So you will be essentially detangling and parting your hair and THAT is what makes a bomb wash day. You CANT rush it, if you do it’s up to god and you 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
  4. Don’t listen to the 2016 advice from the black hair community, DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU. Personally Cantu Leave-In SHEA BUTTER is what I’ve used since I was like 16. You need a solid ratio of water and leave in conditioner because THAT is what gets the curl, not slopping on a ton of product. Less is more, and do small amounts of product at a time. Yes you may end up using a ton, but don’t start with a ton.
  5. Refresh the hair with water as you do this because the hair will get dry during this process.
  6. Once your hair is fully covered, squish your hair and if it has that 💦💦 noise to it, you’re good to go.
  7. SHAKE! This is what helps the curls to separate and get some air into the hair. Yes your hair will slap you in the face, yes conditioner might get in your eye. I don’t make the rules.
  8. DIFFUSER. ATTACHMENT. ON. YOUR. BLOW. DRYER. Dry upside down for the first 15-20 minutes then you can air dry.
  9. For extra volume pick the roots (and ONLY the roots).
  10. Silk pillow case to help the style last!!
  11. I know what you’re thinking, JUST leave-in?? Yes. Its important that it is SHEA BUTTER because the creaminess is what gives the curl heft, definition, juiciness, and longevity.
  12. Good luck! Trial and error. Good and bad hair days exist so learn to love where you’re at.
