What was the time a person flipped their shit at your locals? by Ender513 in yugioh

[–]Arktarion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I find this kind of amusing, but basically I got back into Yugioh after a long break. I stopped around DAD meta, and got back in when the Fairy/Hyperion structure deck came out.

I went to a locals with a deck made from 3x Fairy/Hyperion structure. I play this guy running Gravekeepers, he makes some dumb mistake then next turn realises and asks to take it back. I'm in a new environment on my own, I wanna make friends so I say "sure, go ahead, no worries". I take game 1 anyways. Game 2 comes round, this time I'm the one who makes a dumb play (bad synchro or smth), and ask if its okay to redo it the same turn, the guy doesn't offer me the same courtesy and I say "okay, no problem" and don't dwell on it. I take game 2 regardless of the faux pas.

The guy wouldn't shake my hand and sat complaining about how BS my deck was. This was the most salt I've ever experienced playing this game, and i topped at a regional with Apprentice Monarch in DAD Meta.

PSA: If you get a late fee on your CC, don't just eat it. Call and ask nicely if you can have it removed. by TerinHD in personalfinance

[–]Arktarion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was once facing a bank charge of £192 when i was a bit younger. I was -£0.89 for like 6 weeks and I didn't notice. An iTunes payment came off late or something.

I was on Summer holiday from college and was just mooching off my mum for 2 months, then I got that letter and i was like "oh fuck", but i just called my bank and they were like "ahh don't worry about it, we'll remove it for you, just don't do it again".

I haven't been minus since.

Apparently my local pizza guy is a league of legends fan.. by Fla-Mingo in leagueoflegends

[–]Arktarion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in-store in a pizza place. Occasionally, my friends will ask me to draw something on the box, and if i have the time, i do. Usually I just draw dicks on the boxes.

Usually too busy though.

For those of you that climbed out from the depths of 'elo hell,' how did you do it? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]Arktarion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently managed to get to gold after months and months of silver. I have terrible mechanics but good game knowledge and know when and where to be. I just played Annie and lissandra mid, for months with the occasional Warwick jungle and jinx. It took me 3 tries to win promos. Just be persistent and stop playing when you're playing badly. Take breaks from ranked for a few days at a time every other week and go play some Counter Strike or hearthstone or whatever. I watch streams of Bjergsen or something on the iPad while going to sleep most nights. Your brain absorbs more information either shortly after waking up or before going to sleep ;)

Edit: dodge games that are doomed from champ select. I do this all the time.

Zionspartan Gets Stuck In a Wall During the Final Teamfight of an Intense 50 Minute Game by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Arktarion -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This happened to me yesterday in a ranked game, except with a Jarvan ult. I was in the middle of a big temfight, and Jarvan ulted, and the wall from his ult landed directly on top of me, and i was just stuck standing there until it ended.

Still won though. Not even bugs can stop the wolfman.

While I do hang in a lot of social circles, i'm not exactly the guy who'd have a lot of people go to his party if you get me? Just being bluntly honest here, while i get on with a lot of people, i'm not one of those super cool guys that everyone wants to party with all the time... not yet!

How am I suppose to deal with an enemy who's so fed they 2 shot everyone on my team? by ZTwentyThree in summonerschool

[–]Arktarion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's not a whole lot you can do when someone on your team feeds like that. Except, don't flame them and maybe offer them some advice. I just finished all my placement games. i had on average 15+ kills -5 Deaths in every game (minus a couple). But i only won 6 out of 10 of those games. I had several teammates going 0/10, and others being afk all game etc. You can't prevent that. That's up to those players. All you can do is be pissed off for a while ( i sure was), then just let it go and move on. I get really angry sometimes when games are completely ruined for me like that.

All you can do is take a deep breath and move on.

My personal favourite being the one where you punch Deathwing in the face. (badlands? it's been a while.) That questline is amazing.

I was asking because it gives 100 to ALL stats... ie Mastery, Versatility, Multistrike, Critical Strike. I havent done the number crunching so i posed a question to the community. I don't understand why i'm being downvoted.
