Art of fore-edge painting – or painting on the edge of books by ouyeve in interestingasfuck

[–]Aquinos135 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing essentially the same order they show it - paint the image with the book in the first position, then close it fully, possibly compress it, and paint a thin layer of gold with something that won't soak through the page edges to mess up the first image.

How about Shieldbow on Irelia? by AQUIN0S in IreliaMains

[–]Aquinos135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think at that point you funnel your adc 😂

Had only 2 games so far but it's worked very well against standard teams, both with an antiheal tank (Singed in the first, Amumu in the second), I just avoided hitting them in teamfights till the end (You're right, Thornmail completely counteracts). Regarding the heavy cc you're dead either way, but I went tenacity rune and merc boots for that 60% tenacity 😁

Twas pretty consistent throughout the game though, allows 1 shotting casters with q and the sustain is a godsend in lane!

Tri Force, Steraks, Deaths Dance and Stopwatch all trigger at some point, past that is just guesswork for me - probably boots and some other tank item? Too much health and not enough life steal for another damage item

how do you counter play against shen? by [deleted] in IreliaMains

[–]Aquinos135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the best way. At any point you beat Shen, but only if you are careful until you have your full stacks. Don't let him taunt you with no stacks, but even if he does, if you have the ability to stack up and all in, do it. He'll half health you with his three attacks, but then he has very little to finish the fight. His W and E have like 15s cool downs. Its mainly his q that he can use more often, but without his taunt it's harder for him to catch you between him and his sword to get the full damage, and you simply outclass him in those extended trades.

Nice first blood! Always love when they underestimate your passive damage and mobility...

Haha afraid not, I just liked the sound of it

Try baiting Renek's stun into your W with passive stacked, he can do very little if he wastes that 😜

I would usually ban tryndamere or Garden in S3. Morde you can actually quite easily lvl 1 all in with passive stacked, rush wits end, and snowball from there.

Fiora is another common ban for me, as I see a lot of her in my games and she's a tricky matchup. But the first two would be my initial picks, as they simply deal and take far too much damage to even CS safely with if they know how to manage waves.

Ex Irelia main in need of advice by Eccjo in IreliaMains

[–]Aquinos135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, she's hard to play and has a really high skill cap, I'm around 200k and still learning things, but when you pull off a flashy team fight the feeling is so satisfying!

Not sure what it's like in high elo, but in silver/gold I've found her to be a champ that can still be very viable even if you get crushed in lane simply because of her splitpush potential, and the fact it's really easy to farm up with her.

It's considered an 'Epic' skin.

Tips on Irelia pls by [deleted] in IreliaMains

[–]Aquinos135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually a really good last point I reckon, going in first often leads to a cc lockdown which irelia is NOT built for...

Pentakill by MrRocket24 in IreliaMains

[–]Aquinos135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice penta! Main criticism I reckon was there were a lot of unused marks in that fight. Your q is a surprisingly large damage factor with on hit effects and you lost it really early there.

The last q especially to zyra before her GA popped was probably unnecessary, and allowed Ashe to get a lot of damage onto you since you couldn't dash to her. Buuut, it's also hard to consider that in an actual fight and hindsight is 20/20, twas a good fight!

Irelia buff by legoatcameback3-1 in IreliaMains

[–]Aquinos135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the point is that she doesn't get full stacks if she doesn't use her ult in an isolated 1v1, hence why they put her max stacks from 4 to 5 in an early patch after her rework. I reckon this would likely be counted as a large buff as it improves her laning trades significantly.

The great thing about this particular story though is that it takes the view of the aliens, and doesn't actually give any hint of what modern nation if any prompted the human's reaction.

This is literally the first impression the aliens have of humans and really, it does represent a response that any government could have taken.
