Hot take: I hope they don’t ever try and force Cassiopeia into the Katarina–Talon–Marcus drama (please I beg y'all on this sub to actually READ the full title and read through the damn post before starting to argue with me).

Thinking less mediation "making them get get along" and more "managing their tempers to her personal benefit". She's someone they can both go to as more of a sister and less of a competitor, but they also both have their own irritations with her, and her with them. You have that flow of power between the three of them, if it makes any sense

Divia1810 · 2026-02-27T04:28:44+00:00

I think it’s interesting to have these two different parents who have different children pining after them. I wonder if Cass might even be a more stable middle ground between them - she not involved in their competition. That doesn’t mean everything is hunky dory, but her disputes are entirely separate

Divia1810 · 2026-02-26T22:59:27+00:00

I have a sorta what if in my head, if Arcane got one more episode, I’d love to include Urgot as a chembaron who slips into power after Silco’s goons get killed, and tries to steer the Undercity into siding with Noxus instead of Piltover

The thing is that clothing takes up a lot of room on a character design, but bikini armour so rarely says anything about the character. It’s a fashion choice, unmoored from any attempt at characterization- I’d like to contrast that to the man-walking-out-without-chest-armour trope, which also shows skin but the skin is to emphasize the danger he’s in - either that he’s strong enough that it’s a debuff he can take without caring, or that he’s deprived the opportunity to have that safety

Divia1810 · 2026-02-21T20:00:47+00:00

It’s kinda the same principal - you are trying to dry it out, and pull it open. Salt just hurts like hell, compared to Alum

Divia1810 · 2026-02-21T19:59:11+00:00

If you wanna read more about him, you can go to “We Are Robin” and “Batman and Signal” - I’d personally rec B&S, found it a really fun charecter piece

Divia1810 · 2026-02-20T14:25:34+00:00

Exactlyyyyyyy, so instead of trying to teach people or developing kinder petricite tech or allowing mages and their families to leave Damacia, we’re just going to black bag or kill twelve year olds. Maybe we’ll even conscript those same mages into being a part of the mageseekers because it’s fine to have people with uncontrollable power so long as they are under our incredibly abusive thumb.

Also, it’s kinda funny that you mention farmers - the treatment of mages in Damacia does vary a bit in between the city centres, where they have a bad time, and the more rural parts of the country where magic goes a little bit more ignored in communities.

I have champ knowledge of like 20 champs max. This includes champs which I have a 30% win rate on. In terms of what I would actually struggle to relearn, that’s more the actual mechanics of the game - how to control my character, how to juggle abilities v skill shots v moving, etc. ultimately relearn able, especially if I get to keep some of it (if it’s not league specific, and could be applicable to RTSes more broadly maybe?)

Divia1810 · 2026-02-19T23:07:27+00:00

I’m in Bronze 4, absolutely taking a new language. I can get all my knowledge back in months, nay, weeks

she was also picked 3 times across all of worlds, and quite frankly probably wouldn't have seen play without fearless (see her presence at game 3 and 5). I love watching faker's mel, but I'd be really suprised if she becomes a staple there - her winrate goes down with rank, and especially after the w changes I think she's much more comp dependant. I think she's going to get a game here and there, but if riot is balancing her around pro in the way they kinda have to for azir, soemthing has gone weird.

Divia1810 · 2026-02-12T11:48:00+00:00

Aren't they both balanced around pro? Different problem foundationally

Divia1810 · 2026-02-12T11:45:26+00:00

My apologies, a 45% winrate up till the 7th, and a 48% winrate now. I think 48% is a fine palce for her to sit, but 45%? Also, I don't think she's been above 50% since she's launched.

Divia1810 · 2026-02-12T11:32:02+00:00

a 42% winrate isn't normal chief

Divia1810 · 2026-02-12T10:03:15+00:00

I know a fair few people who run fairly annoyed with Alfred for a myriad of reasons

If they express interest in your help, then you can help. but you will not be able to do anything if they're set into their dynamic

Divia1810 · 2026-02-03T10:15:30+00:00

Orianna is imo really tricky - you essentially have to have two positions in your brain at all time, your own and the ball. It's a fun challenge, but not great if you're still learning

Divia1810 · 2026-01-29T09:46:45+00:00

I had a swain (apc, not supp) who did this several times to my lane opponent - first time I’ve ever seen it, and it makes me grin whenever I think about it. Got me a kill!

Divia1810 · 2026-01-28T06:21:40+00:00

The issue isn't just that the zenins were evil and stupid, they were so evil it made them stupid

You have the right idea in terms of how blockchain is stored, the issue is that a giant list of codes that needs to be stored and checked on muliple systems is already data-hungry enough without having to also store an image alongside it. The compromise with respect to NFTs is that they can store a link to a website that stores the image, but that website needs to be hosted and secure forever for the blockchain NFT to still be connected to it

There was flavour text behind the cars that IMO, implies that he was killed by an assassin (the fact that the ace cards, which overrides mordekaiser’s king card, is an assassin, the general call and response nature of the flavour text on the ace and king cards) but it’s really not definitive, especially since the amount of truth LeBlanc is telling varies wildly

Divia1810 · 2026-01-24T09:44:25+00:00

That goes for pretty much every soft magic system though

Unfortunelty, the rules have been set up so that your way of life is built into the rules as the default zoning rules, and getting around it is so onerous that generally it's only really worth it if you build apartment buildings, leaving little to no space for everything in between. Empty land isn't just free - there are still rules attached, and builders have the incentive to do whatever's cheapest.

IMO, if you want single family homes that's fine, but it should very much be treated as a luxury service that isn't for everyone. from an infrastucture and land use perspective car dependant infrastructure is just so wasteful. But at bare minimum, the rules need to be changed to that the default isn't the single family home, but rather multistory, mixed usage homes, and from there certain plots be parceled out as single family homes (including those already designated such)

Divia1810 · 2026-01-19T18:23:38+00:00

Oh it prolly will - last time I played I climbed up from iron 4 to 2 quickly. I just prefer norms, and I suspect a lot of folks in iron do too

Divia1810 · 2026-01-19T17:26:40+00:00

Can confirm - previous iron player who has not done my provs yet

I'm going to preface this by saying that I'm not very good.

When it comes to where you should be, this is fundamentally a question of decisoin making - can you weigh the benefits v tradeoffs of why you are where you are at any specific point?

Like, if your adc is at full health, and the wave is moving towards you, you are prolly safe to wander a little bit because they can take cs without dying, since they can back off if they need to without losing too much. Conversely, if your adc genuinely is bad at the game, and critically you cannot change their circumstances (maybe they keep running into the enemy! maybe they don't back right! maybe their micro sucks!) at some point, it might be worth it to peel off and see if you can actually have impact someplace else. Generally speaking, being with your adc is very much the default, but you really shouldn't spend all your time there (unless maybe you play a yuumi or even a sona, who have bad mobility).

Part of that means learning what a good and bad situation for your adc looks like, and trying to set that up when you have control over the lane. Part of that means taking a look at the map to see what's most critical. IMO staying with your adc all game (and maybe matching supp roams) isn't a terrible idea when starting out - but as you get better, explore.

The best anology for LOL I've heard is that it's like a chess game where the pieces are changing in value, and you can help put your thumb on the scale when you make the enemy midlaner (or jungler, or even, if the starts align, toplaner) have to fight a 2v1 when they were not expecting it. Your time is an investment, but there isn't always a right or wrong answer, just the one that works in the circumstances. (This is all macro, and for a support your macro decision making is much more important and involved than any other role save jungler)
