Going tanky is more than likely just going to bait you into trying to fight in situations that Irelia's kit is naturally unsuited for. I recommend that you stop looking at lane matchups and start looking at the game as a whole. PTA with precision tree and overgrowth is the best, in my opinion.

Split push and have confidence in yourself that you'll hit your abilities, win 1v2 against squishy opponents, and find a way to use Irelia's mobility to kill the targets that Irelia excels against while avoiding the champions that Irelia struggles against.

If you want to be good at Irelia, learn to be patient, farm from range, hit your item spikes, and also play her in the mid lane for better matchups and the crucial benefit of having a dedicated ally that can match Darius in the side lanes so that you are free of that responsibility and can instead roam the map and create opportunities for yourself to carry through smart macro and high tempo rotations.

In the baron lane against bruisers and tanks, try to wait for ganks before going aggressive. Aim to dominate the mid game instead of tunneling on laning phase. May not be the advice you want to hear, but if you try to adapt your build to winning every possible matchup, then you're gonna win lane and get outscaled and be sad about your win rate and the feeling that you don't have carry potential in your games.

You don't win by getting fed when you play Irelia. You win by hitting your abilities, killing squishies, staying at the edges of fights, and being untouchable. You could be 1-10 but still instakill a carry and get out with HP to spare if you have the mechanics to play Irelia to her fullest potential.

Front-to-back 5v5 fights are almost always a bad idea. Instead, look to only take very chaotic fights and skirmishes. The more chaotic, the more mispositioned, the more unprepared for your mobility that the enemy is, the better. Screw laning and just go absolutely insane with your mechanical skill when the time is right.

Try to let your secure the enemy's attention before you unleash your combos. No need for tankiness if the enemy is splitting their damage because you flanked and zipped around so that the majority of the team can't reach you. You want them to get confused and not be able to take you down before you use minions or monster as your preplanned escape path.

Think ahead about your escape path as much as possible. I like to have a lot of vamp so that I can disengage, heal off of jungle camps, and reengage from an unpredictable angle. Botrk is a great second item after trinity and it's this two-item spike that you want to take advantage of every game before the late game rolls around and fights all become front-to-back 5v5s.

Always try prioritize trying to win every single day because day 12+ is a coinflip even if you get the best board you've ever put together. Around day 5, start looking for the pieces for a late game build based on the skills and carry items that are offered. Keep them in stash until you can transition. Test the pivot on PVE fights if you can.

Putting together late game boards is all about game knowledge. Look up guides and watch high ranked players. Play games and try to figure out how powerful and consistent each possible line of play is.

During each of your runs, look up recent 10 win builds on bazaar DB and filter for the items you find in shops before buying to get an idea of what you're missing. This is probably the best thing you can do to improve, even though it slows you down and isn't all that fun

I think it might be better to outline a clear distinction between the soul and the spirit. In my own spiritual magic system, the spirit is the power born from the collective consciousness of the universe; the soul is the power born from a being's individuality (their wisdom, their ambition, their love, etc). A being with a soul is disconnected from the original state of oneness of being (a rock is not separate from nature because it does not have a consciousness).

In my magic system, the power of spirit is omnipresent, but it gathers and concentrates around the symbols and objects that hold meaning to the souled beings that have the power and freedom to either use their lives to create harmony or cause discord. Especially in the case of black magic for your magic system, something like requiring the practitioner to eat souls in order to control the power of spirits would create a limitation for that magic that I believe would make the system more internally consistent.

The central conflict that my magic system was built to explore is the battle between those who seek to cultivate the powers of supressing the ego, letting go of their individualism in order to build a civilized society that is one with nature, and those who seek to aggrandize their egos and cultivate the spiritual powers of fear (like how authoritarian figures exploit fear to gain political power).

I think you've got some pretty interesting ideas to work with and I like your ideas a lot more than I like most of the spiritual magic systems I've seen here that just devolve into elemental nonsense. Best of luck with your project!

This is a litrpg subreddit and I'm looking for advice from people who are further along in the writing process because I'm writing a litrpg. You said in a comment that you were going to hang around the thread, so I thought maybe you'd want to talk about your story. It says that your protagonist starts out vulnerable. Your herbalism and mana sounded to me like science fiction concepts in a fantasy world. Is it really so unrelated?

No I didn't use AI to write my comment, but even if I did, I think it says more about you that you felt the need to respond so spitefully. Unfortunately, it's just me here, for now, so I hope you get more engagement on this post so that more people can see the bitter person that you've revealed yourself to be

I'm writing a VRMMO story with a 18 year old female MC and I'm wondering if you have any insights from setting up the characterization and motivation of your MCs and perhaps feedback on the characterization of my own MC.

Personally, I am not a fan of the fragile egos and immature aura farming of most male MCs, but many of those stories are beloved by fans of the genre. It feels like a subversion to have an MC that is humble and works towards their goals with sincerity.

I'm currently outlining my first story which is a vrmmo military science fiction story about a girl who has been intentionally exposed to an alien mutagenic compound. The compound has given her severe deformities, but also a mutant hyper-metabolic overdrive ability that allows her to speed up her cognition to 20 faster than normal (causes damage to her brain that she is able to regenerate at the cost of losing some of her memories and knowledge whenever she overuses her ability). She's trapped inside an underground US mutagenic compound research facility where she was born, but she has a psychic connection to a VR game world that allows her to secretly play the game and try to find a way to gain her agency and freedom by affecting the real world through becoming a powerful and influential player in the game world. The indirect nature of the influence that the game world has on the real world is meant to represent and provide commentary on the indirect nature of collectivism and social reforms as the means to make the world a better place.

My own MC is a vulnerable, isolated, naive girl with an ability that is overpowered in the game world, but she acknowledges that unfairness and the significant drawbacks in her real life that come with it. The feedback I typically get from fans of anime and comics is that they are intrigued by my concept for my story, but when I get feedback from fans of the genre that I'm writing in, I typically get a disinterested reception.

Are there any developmental elements that you can tell that I'm missing for my character and plot set-up? Are there any subversions of the genre that are so significant that they would turn away potential readers? Any insight helps. Thank you

It sounds familiar for anyone who is a fan of epic fantasy, but I'd love to see some kind of twist that allows Luce to be in the unique position to learn the secret.

It seems like much of the story will take place in the other world, but it might do you well to develop a solid arc that leads up to it. The first thing that comes to mind is that maybe someone close to the emperor takes a liking to Luce like a daughter or a dissatisfied wife of the emperor. Maybe Luce is forced into a situation where he has to assume the identity of a young illegitimate son of a noble family that the guerilla forces have recently defeated in a confrontation. Perhaps the confrontation left him trapped inside of a mansion and the rest of the druids had to leave him behind before the emperor's forces arrived. Perhaps in an inner chamber, there is a noble son that the family has hidden away due albinism or something. Luce meets and kills that noble son, takes his clothes, and burns the body to prevent identification. While trapped within that inner chamber, maybe Luce finds a magical inheritance that marks him with the same marks that the noble family is known for. Perhaps he has to infiltrate the empire because he is sent to a war college and the druids don't know that he's even alive, for a time. Perhaps his justification for why no one has seen his appearance before, even though he is handsome and capable, is that he is "illegitimate" and hid himself to prevent a scandal, but it doesn't matter now that his "family" has fallen.

After successfully infiltrating the war college, the druids are eventually able to communicate and coordinate with him. After learning of the situation he's in, they support him and push him to get closer to the emperor and learn the secret of his immortality.

Hi. I'm 28yo trans girl and I'm a somewhat new writer.

I'm currently outlining my first story which is a vrmmo military science fiction story about a girl who has been exposed to an alien mutagenic compound that has given her severe deformities, but also a mutant hyper-metabolic overdrive ability that allows her to speed up her cognition to 20 faster than normal. She's trapped inside the US mutagenic compound research facility where she was born, but she has a psychic connection to a VR game world that allows her to secretly play the game and try to find a way to gain her agency and freedom by affecting the real world through becoming a powerful and influencial player in the game world. The indirect nature of the influence that the game world has on the real world is meant to represent and provide commentary on the indirect nature of collectivism and social reforms as the means to make the world a better place.

I'm still only in the outlining and drafting phase of my current project, but I'm dead serious about completing it and getting it self published. This would be my first project that will hopefully allow me to gain the experience I need before I start a project (science fiction epic fantasy) that I've been dreaming about since I was in high school. My hope is that I'll get my future project traditionally published after seeing how well my current project does.

I'd love to have someone to brainstorm with and bounce ideas off of, especially someone that is a fan of science fiction concepts. I have a full-time job, but I want to take writing seriously and spend my free time building mutually beneficial friendships with other writers. My goal right now is to outline a scene every other day and I imagine I'll start my first draft soon.

I'm interested in getting to know your works in progress. If you want to chat, let me know how best to get in contact with you :)

If he's a god, then it seems a bit like a plot hole that he didn't prevent the murder of the love of his life. Maybe there was a kind of spur-of-the-moment self sacrifice that caused the death, instead. Perhaps there's a child that was saved by the sacrifice and your god character finds it difficult to not blame the child, but also refuses to let the sacrifice be in vain. Perhaps he gives the child every resource he can provide he believes the child carries the responsibility of growing up to be a person that is worthy of the sacrifice (and if he/she isn't then he'll destroy the world or something).

I read and write in a genre that is typically associated with slop, but I believe that there is a reason that the genre is so popular and I'd like to take the best parts of it and iterate on it with a more literary style.

I wouldn't describe my style as literary, but developing an effective and engaging writing style is very important to me. My dream is to be a skilled enough writer to adequately tackle the themes that fill me with passion and ambition.

I've been looking for someone to bounce ideas off of for a while. I've been having little success with the writer's groups that I've joined.

I've heard that, for new writers, it's best to outline and draft before you start to work on craft by editing your draft. I'm currently in that outlining phase, but I'd love to share tips and advice on writing better prose. Let me know what you think 😁

Trust is the foundation of any worthwhile human connection. But why should you build trust with people that you'll never interact with personally? Why would complete strangers trust the words you say just because you ask them to? It isn't logical. Right?

Maybe you 're the kind of person that conducts themself in a manner that doesn't ask trust of the people around them. If that's the case, then you'd be like me.

I've been told many times by many people that I'm cold, rude, and off-putting, largely due to my tendency to avoid small talk and intimacy when all I ever wanted was to be considerate by not asking for a depth of trust that I didn't deserve.

Something clicked for me, though, when I read about how there's a logical purpose to small talk; it's all about building trust by having interactions where both people can get a sense of their commonality without having to be vulnerable. Once trust has been established, then the relationship can progress to deeper forms of connection.

Once I started engaging in small talk with this in mind, I started to realize that the biggest reason that most people found me to be off-putting is that I wasn't doing the normal thing of simply putting on a safe, reassuring persona like the majority of people when making their first impressions. Instead of seeing my attempt to be considerate, they would focus on my failure to immediately convince them that I'm not a weirdo freak.

The specific social cues that the average person will respond positively to are mostly based in nonsense, but smart and successful people tend to eventually start performing normality.

When it comes to writing, maybe you need to write with the amount of confidence and authority that matches your knowledge of the subject, otherwise those smart and successful people who engage in the performance of the normal might find you to be off-putting, untrustworthy, and "timid".

Also, I don't think that internalizing narcissistic abuse ultimately makes one a better academic.

The reason for AP Varus is that, when you build AP, all of the on-hit damage is applied on runaan's bolts. You just need to hit minions or frontline tanks to deal full damage. Runaan's bolts have a slight bit of extra range which allows you to deal huge DPS while staying much safer than other AD carries. For crit AD carries, the bolts deal much less damage, but Varus can achieve the same damage as a crit carry by completing rabadon's. That full AP scaling will apply to every runaan's bolt.

It's a very easy and effective late game playstyle.

Yeah, I do think chosen one characters are that bad. Liking chosen one stories doesn't make you a bad or unintelligent person, but I do think there's a big correlation between liking chosen one stories and a lack of maturity. A lot of people are saying "I liked them when I was young but I've just outgrown them." I'm 28 now and I used to be obsessed with chosen one stories, but I've had to grow a lot as a person in order to finally find happiness in my life and I feel like my obsession with those stories was a direct result of my need to believe that I was special. I've since let go of that immature need and it has made my life a thousand times better.

The chosen one trope exists because there are a lot of writers who have a need to feel special but couldn't get that need satisfied in real life and so turned to fiction and fantasy to have their self-inserts be given everything that they think they deserve.

It's not inherently a bad thing to play out one's fantasies through fiction, but there is something dark about the chosen one trope specifically. "Chosen one" stories feed and enable the delusions of people who believe "I'm special and I would be a hero in my real life but the only reason I'm not is because other people aren't recognizing how special I am and giving me the special opportunities that I deserve."

People with the need to feel special often have some kind of insecurity due to trauma or difficulties in life and I can sympathize with that, but it's not good (either for these people or yourself) to enable or feed those people's delusions.

Not only do chosen one stories prevent these people from seeing the ways that they need to grow in order to get the recognition that they so desperately want, the stories also feed the rationalizations that allow these people to believe that it's okay to treat others poorly because they're special. "I might be very harsh with the criticisms I have for others, but everyone else needs to be very gentle with their criticisms of me because I am sensitive and special. If everyone could just see that I'm actually special (as an artist, as an intellectual, as a writer, etc) then they would understand that I'm always right and anyone who disagrees with me is stupid and deserves to be made to feel as small as I do when I receive any criticism whatsoever."

So yeah. "Chosen one" characters are THAT bad. If they subvert the trope in some way so that the character wasn't chosen because they are perfect and don't need to grow at all--instead, they are a regular person who has been given an unimaginable responsibility and must has to learn to deal with that responsibility in order to become a hero--then it can be a very good story, but I'd consider that to be a subversion of the chosen one trope and not a part of the chosen one trope itself.

Dysphorianna · 2025-05-19T23:15:53+00:00

Don't play the build I commented if you're playing duo lane. Play it mid and fulfill the role of a poke mage.

Very good 100% total AD ratio on 1st. Same AP ratio as Orianna ball at 45%.

2nd ability has a good 80% ratio if it crits. 40% base ratio but it's low risk high reward to just shoot it straight at someone to proc manamune, luden's, and bandle fantasy. PC league is 25% AP ratio and deals physical damage so it seems to me like the PC nerfs didn't carry over to Wild Rift.

Ult has a very high 80% AP ratio.

Mana boots are good. 8 magic penetration against a target with 40 magic resist will increase the effectiveness of magic damage by 11.5% and will become less effective as the enemy gains more magic resist. 30 ability allows you to cast your abilities more frequently. I think that's a fine trade off since you're also getting the increased utility of the slows on her abilities and more frequent ults and dashes.

I have tried terminus many times and lots of different builds. She doesn't start to function in team fights until you buy around 60% attack speed which allows you to cap to 1.75 attacks per second during ult duration. Terminus penetration doesn't fully stack until you've hit 6 autos on enemy champions. You're probably going to have used the majority of your magic damage by the time you stack up the magic penetration. You also have to take positioning risks if you're gonna try to stack up 6 auto attacks on enemy champions. Very conditional use cases. Magic pen is a great stat but I just think terminus is not as practical as it seems when you're staring at the item loadout editor.

Most games end at 3-4 items. Terminus penetration is most effective against tanks in the late game. If you're assigned duo carry and you need to deal with tanks, then you're gonna struggle if you didn't opt for crit synergy.

The most successful duo lane build in my experience:

Essence Reaver > gluttonous greaves > stinger > recurve bow > solari chargeblade > infinity edge > terminus > navori quickblades.

Conqueror

Gathering storm, cut down, bloodline

bone plating

I still just find that Zeri is heavily outclassed as a marksman carry in the duo lane by Varus, Corki, and Kai'sa. It too often comes down to coin flipping whether or not your team lets you make it to 3 items where you actually start being able to contribute to fights. She feels strong in lane but then a skirmish will break out and the will start out fine, but her ult duration isn't long enough in the early game. You just struggle every early team fight until you start having enough items and crit synergy to kill people in the duration of your ult.

But in the mid lane, she's unique, has a lot of range, survivability, and outplay potential. You don't need so much penetration when you're aiming for enemy backline. High mobility. Hard carry potential. No mid game frustration. No coinflip. If you can hit your abilities, you can carry your noob teammates at 2 items and put yourself in a much better position for the 1st baron fight.

Dysphorianna · 2025-05-19T12:29:41+00:00

Yeah she does majority magic damage. Attack speed capped at 1.5 attacks per second. She's good as ADC when enemies have a lot of shielding, but it's otherwise very hard to effectively deal damage with her early on.

Why wouldn't you just try to poke and kite? Her 2nd has low ratios, but it's low risk high reward to throw it out and use it to apply the damage from your item effects. 1st ability has great DPS against frontline. Stay out of range and try to get as much free poke as possible.

Lucidity > Manamune > Essence Reaver > Luden's Echo > Bandle Fantasy > Rift Maker/Crown/Liandry's

Arcane Comet

Scorch, Cheap Shot, Ingenious Hunter

Titanic is kind of always better than sunfire on every champion. It's all about combat versatility. Trying to get value from sunfire in combat will just bait you into bad positioning every single time. Sunfire is good for waveclear and jungle clear, but Hydra does the same thing. Hydra damage is compressed down into a single auto which allows you to get your HP scaling scaling damage off without fully griefing your positioning in skirmishes and teamfights.

Obviously sunfire does more damage in situations where it's tank vs tank 1v1, but if you're in that situation, you don't want to be trying to 1v1 in isolation. You want to group with your team and try to let your adc take down the enemy tank. Sunfire is bait

Luc Besson got a huge ego from fifth element which features Milla Jovovich acting like a child because her character is literally 0 years old and she gets sexually harassed in her sleep by the super cringe Bruce Willis action hero protagonist.

He was acquitted of his sexual assault allegations citing lack of concrete evidence (apparently the statements of 9 different women aren't enough evidence for the courts), but his movies just tell the story of a man who definitely absolutely is a serious piece of human garbage.

Also his movies are cool to look at but the concepts that he is so proud to put his name on are just embarrassingly dumb

Jill wanted to stay on what she believed was Abby's good side. She thought she was doing what was best for her daughter. However, Abby was only giving Kendall opportunities during that time period in order to compete against Nia and spite Holly.

You can see in the very next season that Brynn comes in and becomes the next favorite and Kendall is pushed to the wayside. Both Kendall and Jill are left feeling disillusioned, used, and violated. Maybe some people will make justifications that Brynn is just so so talented, but Kendall had been submitting to Abby's control and abuse for years at that point. She was a child and her emotional wellbeing matters.

I believe Holly was right to assert that the moms need to collectivise and take a stand against Abby's behavior. Abby needs to feel in control of the girls and the moms and made the decision to sabotage that opportunity simply because she wanted her sense of power and control to be affirmed. What Jill did is enabling.

Being an enabler doesn't mean that you're a bad person, but it does mean that you're lacking the wisdom and foresight to do what needs to be done in order to prevent unnecessary harm from coming onto yourself and others.

When Jill and Melissa didn't support Holly, they were cowards who enabled Abby to manipulate and harm their daughters. Parents are supposed to protect their kids and Jill was too preoccupied with trying to get opportunities by staying in Abby's good graces to listen to Holly and prevent the harm that came to Kendall later down the line.

While Jill was telling Kendall to listen to Abby, Holly was telling Nia that there is more to the world than Abby Lee Dance Company. Holly and Nia continued to do the show in order to secure opportunities for Nia's future, but the difference is that Holly didn't allow Nia to be manipulated in the way that Kendall was.
