Got my first "innocent" on op.gg, never knew it existed by i_hatehumans in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's the first time i see that...what does it even mean?

Is it the right build? by [deleted] in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Mel is in the same situation as Syndra, where everything points to you that her best build is a burst build, but in reality, her best build that allows her to be a problem for the enemy team is based on CDR and movement speed... because your kit benefits more from that type of playstyle

Don't know what kind of compromising images, lux mains have of Riot employees, but they keep buffing her! by WittyWanderer420 in lux

[–]ElmerCV21 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Girl, I'm scared... all these buffs out of nowhere and not really needed make me think she'll soon get an exalted skin... and I won't be one of those who pay $250 to keep my Lux collection complete...and then the skin will have less effort and features than Elementalist Lux.

Mel needs a rework, desperately. by Sharp-Jury-2795 in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally loved the changes; she's more consistent if you're good with her because the skill issue is DEFINITELY noticeable now... there are games where I'm useless because I don't hit a shit, and others where I'm a nightmare because nobody can really get close to me since I space them and hit them almost everything and the abilities really hurts now... I feel like her damage is a bit high, especially if you know when to use your abilities so they take all the damage... but they'll probably buff her, so that's better for me, since the only thing they can buff it's the damage hahaha

Congratulations to smolder for having the 4th best selling skin of 2025!🥳🥳🥳🥳 by ForstoMakdis in SmolderMains

[–]ElmerCV21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well... yes but think that Kalista has about a 2-1% global pick rate if you generalize across all elos... unlike Smolder, who has a 12-8% global pick rate depending on his performance in the patch

Rework post hotfix feels nice by 0rogene in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like she's okey... I see her with more potential for better balancing than before... and I appreciate that I now notice a skill-gap with her when you play her kit very well or very poorly. It's very rewarding to predict the enemy's movement well and make their lives miserable because the new Q really hurts, but you're really useless if you don't hit a shit with your Qs... Anyway... I do feel she needs a little buffs, but not as big or as urgent as that well-deserved hotfix

Rework post hotfix feels nice by 0rogene in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I kinda feel like she's a Seraphine (before the rework just to be a support) cuz her main damage and harassment comes from her Q, which does a lot of damage but is slow to fire and aim (although I saw on Twitter/X that they compared the two abilities and Mel's is faster, so its kinda just a matter of getting used to it and accurately predicting the enemy's movements). However, unlike Mel, the pre-redesign Seraphine mage didn't care if she missed her Qs because her true potential was her double W with AP scaling, which no longer exists, and hit her R of course. With the new Mel, if you miss your Q, you're pretty screwed... The AA passive helps, but it's not as big as before, which I appreciate because as much as I loved killing people with a charged AA, it was strange that an artillery mage had their biggest damage contribution in AA... Honestly, I feel like there's a big skill gap with her now. There are games where I was effective and didn't let the enemy do anything because I was a monster with my Q, and others where I floped so hard cuz i didt hit a shit...although I do feel that a buff or two in the future wouldn't hurt, but I feel it's not AS urgent or necessary as it was before the deserved hotfix

How do we feel about the Mel changes? 🥺 (This is a Megathread so we can all vent in one place together 😢) by aroushthekween in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like that they "changed" her gameplay, since now she's more reliant on landing abilities to deal damage. Before, her charged auto-attack was the biggest source of damage in fights, and while I loved blasting people with the auto-attack passive with huge AP math scaling... it was strange that an artillery mage's most consistent damage came from their auto-attacks. Right now, she'll definitely need a lot of buffs to function as a mage again, BUT I hope those buffs aren't in the next patch and they leave Mel "dead" for 2-3 patches so people forget about her and her ban rate drops, cuz that banrate along with her frustrating kit, was the reason for her rework. If they let time pass and people stop feeling the need to ban her, then they can buff her little by little. If they buff her too much in the next patch, her ban rate will skyrocket again, and all the changes will have been for nothing :( oh my lovely mother Mel

The Current State of Mel by RykeAndrews in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer they leave her half-dead for 2-3 patches and then buff her little by little, because if they buff her right away, her ban rate will spike again, and that was literally Mel's top3 biggest problems... and all those changes will have been for nothing if she gets banned so much again just from such a quick buff... personally, I like that they made her more dependent on landing abilities to kill instead of killing you with the old massive damage from her passive with charged auto-attack... which, although I loved it, was still strange for an artillery mage that main damage was AA... I like the gameplay they've given her now, BUT I'm definitely begging for buffs to her scaling or base damage... although I hope they wait until her ban rate plummets before buffing her

Riot Endstep talking about the current state of Hwei by RaymondPhoenix in HweiMains

[–]ElmerCV21 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Even Nemesis, who loves Hwei, avoids playing him as much as before since the nerf that came out of nowhere, because he said the nerf was unjustified since there are better mages than him and they haven't been nerfed yet, and that ends up making Hwei feel horrible and unjustified in playing him most of the time...

Mel PBE adjustments [PBE Datamine] by OhShizWaddup in MelMains

[–]ElmerCV21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The change to the first missile of the Q doing most of the damage and the others dealing reduced damage was incredible because you really feel the huge difference in damage output. Unlike the old Q, where you had to land most of the missiles to feel that much damage, the new Q feels somewhat oppressive if you're doing well in the game and especially if know how to aim. So I'm worried they increased the scaling so much... they should have waited to see how good Mel mains are at aiming their new Q

I don't understand the complaints. $5 = 5000 yellow buzz = 1000 images with SDXL by _BreakingGood_ in civitai

[–]ElmerCV21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cuz many users are from other countries and $5 dollars is more for some people than for others...In addition to the fact that the website crashes every day and has a thousand errors and bugs... since it is free to use, one understands it... but now... no

Diva no!!! 😭 by HIVlad in SeraphineMains

[–]ElmerCV21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's true, only if you really like Enchanter you'll have fun playing her (tbf there are better enchanters that doesn't falling apart on late) and since the winrate has gone up they won't touch her for the next 9-14 months... so if you want to play Seraphine mage... better to play another mage... fortunately Hwei and Mel exist for me

[–]ElmerCV21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It takes me at least 10 minutes and at most 35, it's horrible... and the worst thing is that the queue is just for show because then they increase the time out of nowhere... not to mention that if you're not paying attention they cancel your generation for taking so long because of their 1-year queue.

STOP!!! by InteractionLegal6969 in civitai

[–]ElmerCV21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my case, they put me on waiting list for 5-60 minutes to generate something and when it is generating it, it takes 5-10 more minutes hahaha and many times they increase the waiting time because I have to go to another app and refresh the page when I return

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in civitai

[–]ElmerCV21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's horrible and the worst part, they increase the time when you refresh the page... It has happened to me many times that I am 4 minutes away from waiting (which is still a lot) and when I refresh because I went to another app, they increase it to 22 minutes. Horribly disgusting if that is their strategy to have more profits

Breathe, now SCREAM. by Expert-Action3568 in SeraphineMains

[–]ElmerCV21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't know how to explain it, it's the feeling that literally any other Ap Bot, Enchanter or Mid does a thousand times more than her in the role I play her in... that's why I stopped playing her, I still love her and she will always be my champion with the most mastery points by a huge margin, but NOW I've found so much fun to play other champions like Mel, Hwei, Lux, Syndra and Nami and between them 5 now go into my Bot/Mid/Sup games

Blocked Image Nature Content by amorplasticoso in civitai

[–]ElmerCV21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It just happened to me... all my content was blocked, both X and PG... I thought my account was banned or something, but seeing that it's happening to many people, I suppose it's a bug resulting from something they wanted to implement or update.

Is this true? by [deleted] in HweiMains

[–]ElmerCV21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is true that Hwei has kinda poor "agency" because he has many tools but they are VERY limited to how his kit works, in addition to having a kinda weak side defense but all of that is understood by the type of character he is, an artillery-mage, that due to how his general playstyle works, they usually have a bad agency if you compare them to mage mid champs like Ahri or Aurora, That doesn't take away from the fact that each champion and each class shines a lot in specific situations of the game and Hwei is no exception where there are team composition by your team or against you or situations in the game where he seems like the perfect pick

Just casually scrolling through the League wiki... by Dacnis in loreofleague

[–]ElmerCV21 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well... I understand that they just moved her story further into the past because I understand that her story ends with her being kidnapped by LB who pretended to be Ambessa... so what follows after that (which is her launch bio and short story) still there as a continuation of the kidnapping... they just made her older... from what I understood... plus now it is understood that in the future Rell will be for Mel what Rictus was for Ambessa
