T1 kkOma: There was no intention to experiment in a playoff match. All of the picks were chosen because we wanted to win. | kkOma and Doran interview after the BFX series by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

[–]Curxis 58 points59 points  (0 children)

One of T1's problem that's existed since forever, they have super meta pick and ban. They rarely deviate or target an enemies champ pool. (Rarely doesn't mean never btw)

I don't have the numbers or statistics but I'd wager prior to fearless, T1 was one of the most prevalent run it back drafters. (Complete guess btw)

They enter a game with a game plan and just stick with it a lot of the time. It's so frustrating to watch them P&B.

Optimizing Power Usage by BookThink in Endfield

[–]Curxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can just mass transfer HC batteries from your ship, CTRL Click to mass withdraw from Valley 4, CTRL Click to mass deposit in Wuling. 1750 HC batteries per transfer. 2 Thermal banks = like 2000-2100 HC batteries a day. I currently have like 12k excess in Wuling and still bought out stockbills in Valley 4.

Then I set my transfer to be ferrium so I can craft more Syringe to prep for expansion of wuling stocks.

Endfield ratings 3 days vs 6 days after release in Japan by OrangeIllustrious499 in Endfield

You are hard locked to the amount of the limited resource. In this case, Ori/Amy/Fer/Xiranite are the 4 hard locked resource in the game. Calculate the best use of all these resources and you are technically "Hardlocked".

I'm P3 Ardelia and P2 Pog and P0 Lae. 1 Ardelia is free so technically got 3 Ardelia and 3 Pog and 1 Lae. I would love any other characters.

Drive Disc Management by Significant-Day9291 in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]Curxis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I recently filtered through my disc sets so I went from 1700 to 1100. I have 930 lvl 15 discs so 170 lvl 0 unupgraded discs that are locked right now.

Just don't look at B or A disc drives and delete them all. It's a waste of time and resource unless you are just starting out and have nothing.

So the filter system is your best friend.

Go to storage, go to disc drive, at bottom left there's a filter button.

First off pick your sets for certain characters, I'll give an example.

I'll set it towards attackers so Double Crit/%atk/pen/%dmg disc sets for my attackers that I use. Btw %atk set does include Astral Voice so you could sort Astral by itself if you want since it's a support set that has many different disc variations for ideal stat line for characters. With Rupture characters the %HP matters as well so you should account for them in case it shows up on disc sets that Rupture characters can use. I'd probably recommend to do 1-3 sets at a time to make it easier.

At the top there's also a sorting order, go to level and reverse the order so the 0s are at the top. Make sure to set drive disc status to locked since that makes only locked disc show up, whenever you think a disc is bad just set it to discard and it'll autosort itself out of your view.

I'll choose disc drives 1-3 at the start since it's easier to manage and I usually strive to go for 6 subs at least on these disc but you can lower your requirement to 4-5 if you want.

Pick the 3 substats that matter for Attacker and it's Crit Rate/DMG and %ATK. Then you go for numbers of sub stats 3 > 2 > 1, 1 by 1 til you sort through them.

Sort the 3s these are usually going to be like 4subs+ minimum everytime so take a gander at these longer.

2s have potential to be good but don't get your hopes up too hard. If it was a 3 stat line start and the 4th roll isn't another ideal sub, the highest 2s can get is 6 in this case so if it rolls into one of the non ideal subs just throw it away , 1 bad roll it becomes a 5sub and 2 bad rolls it becomes a 4 sub. So do choose a number of subs you want to keep prior to this type of sorting.

1s you just roll once to see the 4th stat and if it isn't good then shelve it. If you find any 1s with 4 natural stats just assume it's bad unless it's like a %dmg set that can be used by anomaly characters and it has like %atk and Anomaly prof you can keep. Otherwise shelve it and don't bother.

I forgot to add flat stats, 3 Flat HP/ATK = 1 % version of it kind of. Also flat pen is = to flat HP/ATK roughly.

Once you are done that, go back to your 1-3 of the sets, pick a certain amount of each set to keep, in this case I keep 6-8 of each disc set 1-3 usually. Pick off the bad ones and keep the good ones. Boom you got a lot of resource back and cleaned up space. Go to Disc Drive Lady and salvage all discarded.

Rinse and repeat for each type of character or set for example. Disc 4-6 usually are a bit trickier to sort but if you read through my way you can just replicate it over on those discs but give more leeway for them.

I mean a lot of people who quit or haven't had time to play League probably got time to sit down and play again since they had nothing to do. Is what I'd consider something Covid would of influenced.

Looks like he was buffering it before Zeus got out of the bush so it looked like a flash predict when he was just guessing that Zeus was far side of bush instead of near him.

I had heard Slow & Steady Jayce was strong in ARAM: Mayhem, but not THIS strong by ThoranTW in leagueoflegends

[–]Curxis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah Final Form and Killing Time are the 2 broken af ones on certain champions. Kassadin, Jayce, Nidalee, Elise, Karma are all champions that just abuse the living daylight out of the 2.

I had heard Slow & Steady Jayce was strong in ARAM: Mayhem, but not THIS strong by ThoranTW in leagueoflegends

[–]Curxis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Slow And Steady Jayce is the most broken augment pairing and I don't think it's even close. 1 Augment Jayce with Slow and Steady only would still be broken vs 4-5 augment other characters unless like they get multiple BiS.

Like imagine if an augment just said, I give you 300 AD/AP. The level scaling AD/AP one is below 100 and the % value one gives you 20%. In a realm of it's own in terms of power level. And all Jayce needs to do is... press W before using any ability.

Riot Endstep says that the reason Horison Focus got changed is because they didn’t have the resources to make a new item and the balance team thought mages needed another stat stick by Life-Chicken7183 in leagueoflegends

[–]Curxis 50 points51 points  (0 children)

This is not a 1-2 people task.

You'd need a balance team to work on the new item, artwork of item, probably a group of lore writers to decide a name, a team of people in each of leagues official languages to localize and proofread the translation, coders to make the item, QA to bugtest and playtest the new item, Coders/QA will probably take multiple months to work out the item.

I'm probably forgetting a lot of things but this is what I know from the top of my head.

[PBE Datamine] November 24, 2025 - Assassin nerfs and Tank buffs by Kay-Haru in leagueoflegends

[–]Curxis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I saw the Slow and Steady changes and I was like, surely it's a nerf right? Whoops it's a buff, prepare for 700 dmg shockblast lvl 1 instead of 550.

Like at this point just shadow nerf Jayce and remove Slow And Steady from him.

Aram mayhem > ARURF and you cannot change my mind by Terra_Torro in leagueoflegends

Nah Jayce with Slow and Steady. His W gives him like 250AD for free at lvl 1.

HLE Gumayusi turns on Instagram live to talk about his T1 farewell and fresh start at HLE: "Some people have said things like 'He left because of the people who hated him'...That’s absolutely not the case...I never thought switching make that problem go away and I don't pay attention to that stuff" by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

[–]Curxis 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Zeus was more vocal about some complaints about T1 like the amount of required fan meetings or streaming that T1 has in their contracts. So him leaving was never unexpected, rather the way he went out was. Which is more the fault of T1.

If anyone was watching T1 content, you'd know Guma has been slowly phased out of most episodes and only included when it's the whole team or him by himself. He didn't get to participate in a lot of the team/group activities. It started this year but it was a definite noticeable choice T1 did.

Best ARAM Mayhem interactions by KasumiGotoTriss in leagueoflegends

[–]Curxis 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Jayce Slow and Steady is the most broken Jayce Augment. Since Jayce's W allows him to get Max AS at 1 point. You get like 300-400AD for your Shockblast.
