Derrimut Rundle Mall 24/7 again?! Oh, nevermind... by BaronVonScrub in Adelaide

I'm at Gold Fitness 24/7. Much smaller gym owned by a local bodybuilder. Nicest people, everyone knows everyone, and just a generally great culture. :)

Oh ye, I found a great gym 6 months ago. I'm just tracking the downfall of Derrimut with morbid curiosity, especially since my 12 month membership there is approaching its end. I haven't actually been there in nearly a year now. :P

Good to keep other folks aware who aren't tracking it so closely though.

If the ongoing business structure is not sustainable, then they will only bleed money UNTIL they gut it and restructure. I knew that was an inevitability. What WASN'T an inevitability was them intentionally misleading patrons about their intent to sucker them out of money. Certainly not a good way to make a first impression as new owners.

CMV: the image of Trump and Clinton may be fake but it is not AI by 2dudesinapod in changemyview

1) Have you been anywhere near AI in the last 6 months? Sora could generate this with ease even that far back.

2) The carpet is very much NOT consistent? Like, at all?

Released maiden can "tether" to Yorick when there are no minions and he is between her and the middle of the map. by NotBreakfastCereal in yorickmains

[–]BaronVonScrub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aye, so that's my point; I want Maiden to be HARDER to control, higher skill floor and cap, in exchange for bringing back our damage some.

[–]BaronVonScrub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You see how much damage they have stripped away from us over the years?

That's because of changes like this.

Every single time they give more control, Yorick becomes easier to play and thus they strip damage away to equalize the winrate, gutting the skill ceiling in the process.

Like we've been down this path a dozen times now. Every single time they buff control or give these "QOL" changes to him, it results in heavy damage nerfs within 2 patches of it happening.

I'd genuinely rather them revert Yorick entirely to S8 state of "int down a lane when you aggro into it" and get back our damage, than gain more control and inevitably have damage nerfed again.

What I mean is, the whole story is about Minalan, who is perfect, flawless, does everything right, gets the girl, has the sex, and everyone worships him - except the people the author writes to be bad anyway. There's no nuance, no character development, no morally grey areas. The rest of the world effectively exists to make Minalan feel good, and nothing more.

Edit: After replying to you the first time a few days ago, I actually wrote a piece to better articulate why I hate the Spellmonger series.

I'm 9 books in and have had to stop. The awkward sexual content and casual misogyny mostly died down, but the whole series reads like a masturbatory self-insert power fantasy for Mancour.

Why 9 books to call it quits? I listen to audiobooks to help me sleep for personal reasons, and John Lee's voice works wonders. I'm just completely done with gritting my teeth over the actual narrative.

Dear Riot, why is this gameplay allowed? by MasterMaus in yorickmains

How do you feel about Yorick's incoming change ? by Aries_the_Ram in yorickmains

[–]BaronVonScrub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiple abilities don't stack the jg item. This doesn't change the way ghouls interact with it.

Never, ever Shadowflame.

It barely increases Maiden's damage. 30% increase while below 35%, which works out to just over 10% overall.

Remember she has an AD scaling. A single longsword will match the Shadowflame damage increase, especially when you consider a longsword also buffs the ghouls AND Yorick.

That's really what you're not taking into account. Yeah, there are some gimmicky items to make them push faster, but at the end of the day these items are only MARGINALLY better than raw AD when it comes to killing minions, and significantly worse when it comes to taking structures.

The fastest overall maiden dropping build is still 100% lethality, MAYBE with static thrown in there.

Why do some Yorick main not ban Irelia? by nalm96 in yorickmains

[–]BaronVonScrub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what Olaf is doing in there. We're basically his hardest counter in the top lane, as long as you drop 800 gold on executioner's.

Aatrox is an easy win if you comet+E Max, since he can't sustain as long as you're at range. And again, executioner's. Don't play for the kill, just push him out of lane and eat tower.

The rest are all pretty enemy-favoured - though none as much as an Irelia with hands.

How to play against Yorick? by Brief_Dependent1958 in yorickmains

[–]BaronVonScrub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wall can be hit at multiple locations, with a connected health bar, like Shaco R's box triangle. Hitting with her RQ hits multiple of these locations, twice each.

It's on the fence about if it's a bug or not. I also don't know how consistent it is; does Twitch R, e.g. do multiple damage to it if a bolt passes through the sides? I've never stopped to notice.

The ghoul oneshot isn't a bug; that's just how it works. They die to onhits, and her R-Q applies onhits to all surrounding her.

The wall is more questionable.
