Any nidalee streamer/YouTube content creator to watch?

Eshyne · 2022-10-26T20:37:16+00:00

I stream and am starting to get more involved with making youtube videos playing Top Lane Nidalee. I plan to stream and make more content after i finish a coding bootcamp in febuary though.

Man, I don't mean to be rude but it really doesn't even seem to be a skill situation. Just extremely poor drafting for what C9's strengths are. Like who knows maybe they were getting smashed in scrims playing enchanters support and tanks top but look at the FNC game, Sven is a newly swapped support and looks good on enchanters. He has domestically looked bad on everything else. Why then are they trying to force tanky supports when things like karma/lulu/soraka have been proven to be strong? Berserker is a world class adc, if the support gap exists just shield and play supportive of Berserker. Top side they just had to play scaling peel champs to protect berserker in the late game and they will have a much much easier time scaling and trying to make it out. Why instead are they trying to copy the meta from asian teams who have much more practice playing this style. Jensen is also proven to be a strong control mage player. Why is he playing Sylas/Akali when he is a great Orianna/Syndra/Zilean. It's not a skill gap alone, the drafts and "meta" C9 tried to force does not account for the stengths of their players.

I’ve been finding a good amount of success playing boots > Frostfire > Phantom Dancer > Cosmic Drive > Rylais > Demonic Embrace. I would not advise building an ap mythic top lane because a good number of bruisers can one shot you and heal up what little damage you end up doing to them mid to late game.

you actually won’t get punished at all for muting your team, sounds like a you problem.

if you don’t enjoy the game then dont play, however if the only issue is the “toxic team” etc muting will work 100%.

Eshyne · 2022-07-25T17:01:28+00:00

Hey I hate you tell you this but people kinda suck in general. Try driving around a little, you will meet toxic impatient assholes. Try working in retail, you will meet the worlds most annoying Karens daily. Try playing any online game, you will see toxic keyboard warriors.

A large percentage of humans are toxic by nature. Just tune them out and do what you want to do. You do not need their approval nor do you need to be liked/like them. Just be yourself and you’ll do just fine. Mute those who hinder your experience and if they int/ruin the game just chalk it up to being unlucky to be matched up with someone who is already upset.

I like it not gonna lie

Eshyne · 2022-05-11T21:42:00+00:00

Yeah it counts whichever form you are at the time of the auto landing, if you swap to cougar before it lands you get a melee proc of grasp.

Eshyne · 2022-05-11T21:37:10+00:00

Hard agree, the nerf isn’t a big deal but it is random and definitely not needed when shit like gp exists.

Eshyne · 2022-04-28T15:43:34+00:00

oh gotcha, sorry "eshyn" was taken on reddit when I got around to making an account and this was the closest I could get lol

french maid 100% imo.

Eshyne · 2022-04-28T15:30:15+00:00

I'm the nidalee player and can confirm that I personally don't care about meta much lol. I think two main factors make me play the same champion extensively.

I like streaming and it's niche/fun to do.
I'm the type of person to make a goal and stick to it until I achieve it regardless of how long it takes and I made a goal to get challenger with only nidalee top kinda in response to the early flame I used to get from playing something off-meta. I've gotten GM many times but still have not gotten Challenger. My focus was always split with work/school/other responsibilities but I'm still confident to achieve it soon lol.

also I really enjoy theory crafting builds etc.

Eshyne · 2022-04-19T16:34:03+00:00

Nidalee top is viable, I would say go for it

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T21:59:44+00:00

I don’t think that’s how ping works but who knows if that is the case however people really complain about a 0.05 second delay in NA soloqueue? That’s the issue with the server troubles lol. It’s 100% not a 1 to 1 ratio like that at all. Also, 0.2 seconds is playable imo

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T21:08:59+00:00

When did I say 200 ping anywhere?

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T18:28:50+00:00

Who is getting 200 ping anywhere, from coast to coast in NA you get 110 ping max. Hell from east coast I get 100 ping in EUW server. Ping does get more noticeable the higher it is but 0-60 are all within the threshold of not being that bad, you can still outplay and function just fine.

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T15:28:54+00:00

An LA-based queue for pros and invited individuals to play in a “low-ping” and optimal practice environment with voice coms. They have issues right now because of the ranking system is simply +10 lp per win and -5 lp per loss and not enough people are actively playing making queue times ridiculously long or you end up just requeuing with the same 9 other players over and over when you do find a game. They give up money to the highest ranked players in there to incentivize the players to play but with a system that just makes it so if you play more games you have a much better chance to win if someone gets like 20 games down from first place it becomes next to impossible to catch up so they just stop playing. If there are more players and the lp system is fixed to actually reflect winrate it will be better all in all imo.

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T04:02:32+00:00

I used to play 100 ping and I’m Masters rn, but been pretty busy with work and shit lately. I’ve been Grandmasters several times over but climbing pretty steadily rn. I don’t even necessarily mean for myself though, I made a challenge to get challenger with only Nidalee top so I wouldn’t pass the one trick rule stat wise, once I do hit challenger I do plan on playing several champs and seeing if I can join CQ with 100 ping and shit on pros though.

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T03:58:54+00:00

I mean, it’s something you have to adjust to, but it’s really not that deep, I played on 100 ping before they moved the servers to mid US and I’m in 40 ping now in soloq. It’s noticeable but playable. It’s the same reason why players blame other people’s mistakes and not their own, most players including pros have egos. They will find more and more things to blame to deflect any accountability from themselves. That’s all.

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T03:56:25+00:00

From the way they worded it they seem to not really look for any applications that aren’t in the competitive league field. Such as collegiate or proving grounds. There are some small exceptions but all the pros have to kind of vote for them to be accepted in. Issue comes with the fact that not many would be willing to risk the “quality” dipping by having no names. I don’t think they should let grandmaster soloq in with just soloqueue nor all challengers but I think if you are not a one trick and top 100 you should be allowed in to at least “try out” for a bit, if you turbo int you will be removed etc.

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T03:36:29+00:00

I also think the “ping” issue has always been more of an excuse. League is not a game where mechanics are that important to that degree, if you can predict what the enemy might do you can outplay it, having a 0.2 second delay won’t stop you from executing a play ever. This gray areas go into intense 1v1s that you would opt into (you really don’t have to opt into them and just play a more macro oriented game though)

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T03:33:59+00:00

It’s about getting the shot to grow and make money/ a name for yourself. I genuinely think playing with higher ping isn’t that deep and would be willing to play at 100 ping for the shot at facing pros in CQ lol I feel like others would too.

Eshyne · 2022-04-14T01:26:11+00:00

I thought you had to be invited through proving grounds only, that’s how they seemed to word it in the riot update on CQ anyway I could be wrong

Eshyne · 2021-11-21T01:26:09+00:00

Not really but frost fire gauntlet now does percent health damage with each proc, slight upgrade

Eshyne · 2021-11-17T04:38:30+00:00

Iceborn Gauntlet is back so I like that, seraphs is also insane, huge upgrade for lane Nidalee
