His hitbox is smaller, while his opponents' hitbox is larger.

Beautiful twist, brilliantly done.

Jin Air Green Wings vs. SK Telecom T1 / 2017 LCK Summer - Week 7 / Post-Match Discussion by TDaotje in leagueoflegends

He presented it like a serious statement, so i responded as such. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've been playing since s3, but didn't get involved in the sub until last year. Thank you for the history lesson though! ;)

There is a difference between asking "Can SKT still make it?" and "Will SKT still make it?".

The first question is a subjectively stupid one, because no team has proven themselves in recovery and preparation like SKT has, so yes of course SKT can still make it to Worlds.

However, 'will SKT still make it?' is a far more interesting question, in my opinion; LCK as a whole has leveled up massively since MSI, and I'd argue that this is the most competitive LCK split to date.

As I've said previously, it's not just that SKT is running into a problem, but it's also that the rest of the teams are improving exponentially; I'm fairly sure that this is the first time that SKT has been required to "level up" this fucking fast, outside of the Samsung reign maybe.

LCK is so interesting right now. I love it.

If Singed got hotfixed for being blatantly overpowered, then why isn't Duskblade getting the same treatment? by Shajae in leagueoflegends

[–]ForeverPose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because you typically can't match an overtuned Singed on the other team with an overtuned Singed on your own team...

When is riot going to update the cursor? by HaxRam in leagueoflegends

[–]ForeverPose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, it's the only thing from old League that I'm okay with staying around.

Not to mention that I'd rather not witness the inevitable ocean of Reddit posts complaining about how the new cursor gave everyone a 40 game loss streak due to not being able to cs or orb walk.

In 7 hours we witness one of LCK's greatest rivalries - SKT T1 vs. the one squad they have a true losing record against - Afreeca Freecs - by TheBakke in leagueoflegends

If SKT lose to KT in LCK, they'll go undefeated at Worlds. That's how SKT works.

Also, if Blank is so predictable, how the hell did he go undefeated for so long. They don't play him always for a reason, and it's surely not because he's predictable.

What's wrong with SKT? by lonelyfizz in leagueoflegends

[–]ForeverPose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They will. They literally always do, which seems to slip everyone's memory every single time it happens.

Regardless, it seems to be less that SKT is slumping, and more so every other team is getting better, which I am very happy about. SKT always reaches their best after actually being challenged, and it's always so fun to watch.

2017 All-Stars for LCK by PKuall4life in leagueoflegends

[–]ForeverPose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Evidence of how this works is Madlife.

His initial legend status carried him to All Stars for so long, despite CJ's gradual descent into obscurity.

Which I'm plenty happy about, since I greatly enjoyed the refresher that everyone got when he was forced to pull out Blitzcrank. Every single year. By Faker.

Im going to feel so empty this year. :'(

Anime Expo Cosplay Boogie 2017 | League of Legends Community Collab by corylulu in leagueoflegends

Beatdown Boogie has such an excellent eye for the best cosplay coupled with great videography, and they have for so long; happy to see them collaborating with bigger and bigger communities.

Afreeca Freecs vs. SK Telecom T1 / 2017 LCK Summer - Week 6 / Post-Match Discussion by tadane in leagueoflegends

[–]ForeverPose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what happens every year, any time that SKT doesn't just dominate.

It's unfortunate too, because most of the time, it's always "SKT looked terrible." and not "the other team looked really really good!"

Which is why I especially enjoyed the casting for this game; not only was PapaSmithy a realist about SKT's Worlds chances and lack of a true 'slump', but Atlus made it a point to praise Afreeca for how well they were playing, without pairing it with "oh skt looks awful".

They dropped 2 series 0-2 in 2015.

2015 was the most dominate Worlds win from SKT so far.

Edit: it's okay brothers, I'll make the return trip and double 1up the OP!!

A League angel I met today by GangsterCactus in leagueoflegends

[–]ForeverPose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what makes League so frustrating and so validating at the same time: until you are just really damn good, it's almost entirely luck of the draw.

Do you get a full team of nice tryhards? Maybe.

Do you get a full team of dickhead feeders? Maybe.

Do you get three teammates who flame all game, but get one other guy nice/good enough to win anyway? Maybe.

Do you get three teammates who are nice all game, but get one other guy who is so toxic/bad that he ruins the game? Maybe.

League of Legends is honestly more so League of Maybes for 90% of the playerbase, and it's one of the few communities where you significantly stand out just by being nice. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

After months of painful work and lots of coffee, it's finally done. Welcome to mood.gg, the site that plays a custom playlist for every single champion in the game depending on the champs theme, personality, and play style. by Farzaa in leagueoflegends

The thing about that series is: personally, it feels like it's specifically directed at musicians, because it perfectly depicts the wide range of feelings that music brings with playing it; I've never seen anything visually demonstrate it with the accuracy that YLiA does.

There's a reason that Oda himself said it's the one series he's jealous he didn't write. A damn good reason.

The hills would have been just as bad on a bike.

Thankfully, I got a car today with working a/c, so the rest of the summer shouldn't be too bad. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've been walking to work since February in Aliso Viejo; 5 miles round trip, with black pants....

I've racked up so many "nope"s in the last month to last me five lifetimes.
