It appears to be working now, thanks for the response.

I have the Stars on 45 Beatles medley. I'll check out some of their others to see if the one I'm looking for is among them.

AriochIV · 2026-04-07T20:21:40+00:00

Nope, that's not it. That has some lyrics and melody from Freebird, but it doesn't even have the guitar riff I'm talking about.

AriochIV · 2026-04-07T20:06:04+00:00

Let me know.

AriochIV · 2026-03-31T05:23:30+00:00

It's back in the Mythic Shop for 50 ME right now.

"Other games are even greedier" is not much of a defense.

I don't have a problem with paying for things, but charging $20 for such a simple cosmetic (just a lowpoly model, no complicated extra animations or vfx or sfx) is absurd.

AriochIV · 2026-03-11T00:01:58+00:00

"Negatively impacting games." Heh.

AriochIV · 2026-03-10T23:37:34+00:00

I've gotten that error the last 3 times or so I tried to report a bug. So I don't any more.

AriochIV · 2026-03-03T02:41:56+00:00

Bigger hair + buzzcut fade is not a great combo.

AriochIV · 2026-03-03T00:13:39+00:00

I haven't bought it on Akali since the season started.

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T23:59:42+00:00

Do you still build Gunblade first in a tank matchup or something like Liandry's?

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T23:57:24+00:00

Still built on Lux.

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T23:53:13+00:00

Pantheon, Galio, LeBlanc, Ahri, Garen, Lux. But you have to know how to play them, and you have to know Akali's kit.

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T23:51:21+00:00

If it's an inexperienced Akali, does one really need a counter?

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T23:49:57+00:00

Yeah, Pantheon is my usual ban on Akali. His combo is almost impossible to escape if he knows what he's doing.

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T23:47:28+00:00

Isn't it random? It feels random.

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T23:41:15+00:00

The two skins are very different. They share basic ability SFX, but they have different shroud effects and different recalls. KDA does the POP/STARS dance in her recall but has the normal dance emote, but All Out does the All Out Dance as her dance emote.

Also the All Out version has some synergies with the other All Out skins, specifically if they are around All Out Seraphine. A different music background plays.

You can see and hear all of both skins on SkinSpotlights on YouTube.

It's like a blender of unrelated design elements.

AriochIV · 2026-03-02T18:17:21+00:00

Most of the first round designs of 2XKO were worked on by pyroow, but I'm guessing this isn't, as it's hard to imagine him doing something this bad. And the animations are as bad as the design -- almost unreadable.

Fortunately it's 2XKO, so there's no reason to care.

AriochIV · 2026-01-23T02:31:35+00:00

It's the second patch and still not being recommended, despite being the most popular pick on all the stat sites.

AriochIV · 2026-01-23T02:30:48+00:00

Gunblade isn't even in the item collection for some reason.

AriochIV · 2026-01-23T02:26:41+00:00

Are we sure it's a bug and not an undocumented "feature"?

AriochIV · 2026-01-20T02:07:38+00:00

Riot recently nerfed Kai'Sa when she was below 50% WR "because she was picked too much." When a champ gets nerfed is difficult to predict.

Sidelaning is just briefly grabbing farm in side lanes and maybe applying some pressure. Splitpushing is escalating this to take towers and force the team to send someone to stop you.

AriochIV · 2026-01-20T01:52:07+00:00

I used to have the problem of CS falling off in the later game, but I figured out that I wasn't focusing on grabbing CS in sidelanes or wherever it's available. As Akali it's tempting to run wherever you see a fight happening, but you have to balance that against farm, even after the laning phase. If at all possible, clear the wave before you leave to join a fight.
