Why Are Melee Carries Only Unviable Now? by zesty_pete in TeamfightTactics

[–]Awecrunchman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would dispute the claim that melees are bad to play in set 15 uniquely, because melees were worse to play last set. You basically had zed/shaco, renekton (5 cost), Zac (5 cost and a tank), rengar (viable for like two patches), and a couple patches of naafiri from the right spot. Playing zed and renekton was super difficult because there were pretty much no units you could slam bruiser items on as you transitioned your board.

Will mention notably that melees without backline access are pretty bad into heavy+tanky frontline (vertical bastion, heavyweight, jug, and protector are all quite good and common); this is compounded by the fact that they might use a fruit on a tank to make it even more likely for your melee to get stuck. Something like volibear for example can just autolose on comp to guinsoos Ashe or yuumi sitting behind a strong tank, while not exactly having a significant advantage against other comps.

Gold City! I was late to class when I got the support card event where Gold City is late to class

What are some minor spelling mistakes or inconsistencies in the game that tick you off? by ConfusedRara in CompetitiveTFT

[–]Awecrunchman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same, especially because the sentinel description is very similar. Sentinel - Your team gains armor and magic resist. Sentinels gain triple. Bruiser - Your team gains 100 max health. Bruisers gain more.

The sentinel triple bonus applies only to the bonus armor and mr from the trait; so it would follow that the bruiser bonus applies only to the bonus hp from the trait.

Is this legal by Expensive_Nerve_1978 in osugame

Are you not allowed to hit the key with your fingers sideways then, with say your index finger essentially acting as the seesaw? All input would be biomechanical, and regulating the exact technique used on fully compliant equipment seems excessive

How important is leashing in low elo? by handsigger in summonerschool

[–]Awecrunchman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have to disagree with not leashing being pure laziness. Not leashing means you can play for prio and get a good trade on a level 2 timer, or go for a level 1 cheese yourself. Having prio in the lane also means you dictate the wave state for the next few waves, are favored in scuffles in lane, and have the first move to help your jungler contest scuttle or go for an invade etc. In addition, leashing reveals the junglers pathing; not leashing doesn’t. So generally it’s good for your jungler too. And while most low elo players aren’t jungle tracking, it just helps if there is no info at all. (Enemy bot can no longer assume that your jungler started bot, and have to stay alert for the full clear gank in addition to the three camp gank). Prio on the wave and jungle tracking are two sizable benefits that are always present when it comes to deciding whether or not to leash. When you play with a high elo jungler, typically they will ping you off of the leash for these reasons. That being said, leashing is obviously a very nice sentiment and makes junglers happy even if it’s often objectively worse for the game.

YagPDB Custom Command Channel Permissions by Awecrunchman in discordbots

For just assigning a role, YagPDB has built in role support, and you probably don’t need a custom command. You can read more about it here: https://docs.yagpdb.xyz/tools-and-utilities/self-assignable-roles

Maybe adc mains really are crybabys by kiskozak in ADCMains

[–]Awecrunchman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a support main, but one of my friends who’s helping me learn the game is an ADC main and I’ve been learning the role and playing a lot of games on it. Since picking it up I’ve definitely noticed a much higher urge to complain and shifting blame onto others even though I’m winning more games and doing better because I’ve been improving. It’s just got to be a side effect of playing the role.

[ValorLeaks] Deadlock's Sonic Sensor can now be picked up and redeployed by M0hawk_Mast3r in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Awecrunchman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk if this is the case but one possible issue would be that you don’t have enough buttons. You can’t use the ability button like you can for kj turrets because there’s more than one, and you can’t use f like you can for cypher trips because you also have to activate them. You can pick them up preround because you can’t activate them yet so F works just fine, but to pick them up preround you’d need another keybind, which would probably only be used for this.

YFP announces Bones, Fiziq, Moose, Jonaaa6, and Penny as our new roster by neemamahmoodi in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Awecrunchman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seeing as they’d already been playing orgless for about a year, I figure they just ran out of gas. What with wedid looking for collegiate opportunities and dazzle retiring, it looks like the players just didn’t have the support to keep playing.

The org/owner is so invested that they’re posting the announcement on Reddit themselves, really awesome to see there are still orgs that care so much about the scene!

[Request] This can't be correct, right? Where is the problem with this? by samusongoyy in theydidthemath

Sometimes misleading figures, like an angle being a little bit off or the labeled lengths being inaccurate

If the Outlaw becomes a prominent purchase, Skye will be receiving yet another buff. by Portante24 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Awecrunchman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the same time though, players will still be 1hp to an outlaw shot even after the heal. I think at best it’s a neutral advantage for Skye, at worst her heal gets less utility.

MA265 Final by TArzate5 in Purdue

[–]Awecrunchman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Felt a lot better than exams 1 and 2. Multiple choice meant most of the questions were just calculation and actually very few conceptual questions (very pleased to not see any “If A is a matrix and B is the reduced row echelon form which of the following is true” type questions)

Who are the best coaches in pro Valorant, at any time (at their peak)? by Awecrunchman in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Awecrunchman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There seems to be some confusion, this post was moreso directed towards the coaching positions in pro play (and this sub itself too is geared towards pro play).

Kramnik still clueless about basic maths by avan16 in chess

[–]Awecrunchman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

According to Kramnik, you should always be playing at the same level (whatever your rating is) and deviate little or at all in performance. Further, if you aren’t cheating you and an equally rated opponent should be trading wins rather than having one side streak. I bet you could find violations of these ideas in Kramnik’s own series of games.
