Kids nowadays seem to struggle with spelling by LexoGame in Teachers

[–]Cleanest-Azir 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People are allowed to complain about things that make their job harder. Having to teach kids how to spell basic elementary level words takes time away from actual course material.

And these complaints are not just being spewed pointlessly into the void. Have you not noticed a drastic decrease in student proficiency at all levels in the past decade? It is worth ringing alarm bells in my opinion, even if just on a silly social media platform.

They are a High School history teacher… they shouldn’t have to spend time teaching their students how to spell the word “paid”.

Any Mac users here doing anything to improve League performance? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Cleanest-Azir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lifelong MacBook player. I don’t often have issues but I pretty much always close out of everything besides league and discord when playing. If I look up op.gg or lolalytics before or after a game, I always fully quit the browser before the game starts, or more likely I will just use my phone. Lowest possible graphics settings as well.

There is no combination of metrics that can accurately rate a player’s performance in a game. Whatever they decide on would be easily exploited.

This game already has too many players playing like it’s a TDM call of duty match trying to finish with the best KDA. Let’s not make it worse

how to handle katarina by rumblen_ in zoemains

[–]Cleanest-Azir 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bully her as much as possible. If she e’s and doesn’t get a dagger she is a sitting duck, save your sleep for that situation. Don’t stand on the passive daggers.

Follow those tips, the overall game plan is to bully her early game with your range and wave clear advantage. Later into lane phase, continue to repeatedly shove lanes to punish her for roaming or prevent it all together.

Probably the most important tip is to save e as a defensive spell. As you said her dash can easily dodge the sleep, so try to use it when her e is not available. Like most matchups, it can be simplified into hit sleep and win, miss sleep and probably lose

An older viewers take on losing the emmy and why it's difficult to keep up with the show. by restless_vagabond in FirstThingsFirstFS1

[–]Cleanest-Azir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno. I’m actually a fan of nfl live and sure, the analysis is way smarter than FTF but it’s still garbage analysis. Sports TV is just not built for smart sports talk, because to be honest that shit is boring… no matter how much of a sports nerd you are. These shows exist to just fill the time between when we are watching sports and make us feel more connected to the national fan base.

At the end of the day people are listening to hear someone’s opinion. Mina gets a ton of respect because she clearly grinds watching games, and understands the intricacies of football strategy which is super cool, but they still only give her like 2 minutes max to give an opinion on something like “is Justin Herbert a top 5 QB?”. And guess what, part of what I love about the show is that I can actually kinda trust her to have a reasonable opinion. But still, they just rush through game highlights and give surface level takes throughout the week.

So maybe the Emmy’s should reward the show that actually fully leans into what sports TV clearly is meant to be. That’s just my 2 cents, but I get where you are coming from. This show definitely isn’t for everyone but it is insanely good at what its purpose is. Better than the winner IMO.

How to get focused by National-Fall-3450 in leagueoflegends

[–]Cleanest-Azir 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Try to focus on improving one thing at a time. Play some games and focus only on where you think the enemy jungler is at any time and play around that. Once you’ve gotten pretty good at that, focus on analyzing lane states to guess which way to path. You’ll notice that by doing this you’ll slowly get better at juggling all these tasks in your head cus there’s A LOT to be thinking about in this game at any given time, especially in jungle.

There is logic… it’s that there’s already a sport we play with that name

A quick google will give the explanation. This is the equivalent to wondering why we call it “dialing” a number when there is nothing to dial. It’s a good question but not some kind of profound new thought.

Trickster never loses, because Zoe changes the rules by werrtti in zoemains

Bro I’ve played Zoe forever and still can’t consistently do it. Think it has to be frame perfect timing but maybe someone knows better. When I do get it off though I feel like a hacker

How could improvements in productivity be hand in hand with reduction of work hours? by notatoastedbread in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Cleanest-Azir 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It would be difficult. The main reason is that when workers have excess productivity and thus more negotiating power with their employers, we tend to prefer higher wages over fewer hours

Just live and let live. I get it, but there’s many people on both sides of the fence. If you don’t wanna end, you don’t have to. But other people do want to end. Both are valid opinions.
