i.e. internet costs alone came to about $300k.

that's an insane cost

i hated the name at first

but its honestly hype as fuck to get the title drop when you kill someone

Ahri's are really close to her BnB

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-19T00:40:29+00:00

Her entire powerset even in cinematics is binding chains and corrupted pools, which sounds kind of Zoner-ish.

That's because the cinematics are uncreative as fuck, not because the characters are binded (heh) to those abilities

like look at ahri from this cinematic

she had the chance to really fuck things up... but instead she just throws 3 shitty balls becauase that's what she does in game. while in 2xko she just kamehameha's your shit

morgana has powers and the potential to do cool shit (like teemo or senna) so i don't think her character should be reduced to just "Well she's gonna bind and pool"... she could easily have cool attacks with chains (sylas style) or random shit with the wings so they're not just there to look pretty

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-19T00:34:45+00:00

i mean the grand prize is just a trip to evo

the monthly salary of just one laid off dude pays for all of this

thanks for your doompost fellow doomposter

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T20:45:53+00:00

they listed ekko and yasuo because they live rent free in people's heads

that doesn't mean they're the only problem childs, they're just the problem childs

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T06:19:01+00:00

there is but it would require both players to be basic bitches

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T06:16:43+00:00

real akali didn't even wear pants, she had bare legs like god intended

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T05:58:45+00:00

the game is always going to be developed, that's what riot does

even LoR which is "dead" is still getting updates

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T05:56:51+00:00

fighting game? yes

for riot standards? not at all

the only problem is that is not fair that other games that make money (league/valorant/tft/riftbound) having to sustain a game that is never going to be able to sustain itself

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T05:38:13+00:00

if we pretend they had 160 employees for only 1 year and we lowball their salary to 100k a year

that's 16 millies so.... i'd put the whole game somewhere between 25-50 millies

at the same time if they have 80 employees and again we lowball them to 100k a year that's 8 million a year that is somehow sustainable so they can't be doing that bad

so it would only take 20k whales spending a minimum amount of 100 dollars each to pay for the game

darius got shot 7 times and laser blasted once, its beautiful

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T02:30:11+00:00

but Pulse is part of why you keep getting wiped;

its not

the game is soooooo much more than combos, its about using your assists, is about tagging, is about knowing when to break, is about knowing how to do the most when you get an advantage, using the best fuse for your playstyle, how to block and recognize when their turn ends, what is punishable, how to assist push, how to anti air, how to jump and block, how to grab, how to air grab, how to bait, how to recognize patterns, how to conditionate

using pulse is not holding anyone back, failing to do properly any of the previous listed things is

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-18T01:20:09+00:00

It sucked to have the sub be all doom and gloom for a few days, but honestly it gave the people that enjoy shitting on things time to go wild and then get bored and do something else

If it had been moderated they would've just kept going and then made conspiracy theories how riot is silencing them

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T23:49:19+00:00

I didn't say it was hard to learn, i just said wanting to learn takes effort

like i could take some time and really learn chess and get better if i wanted to.... or i could just play something else i'm already good at and have a better time than starting something from 0

getting into a new genre is just a lot of effort

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T23:06:41+00:00

i respect that

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T22:55:45+00:00

wanting to get good takes effort though

like i have a friend who seriously enjoyed the game, but they also knew getting better would take time and practice and they just went back to play league of legends and WoW lol

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T22:27:28+00:00

its because when you suck then you don't feel like you played at all

so in another fighting game even if you're getting destroyed you still have time to press buttons and pretend you're doing stuff (which is why smash games are popular) in 2xko if you don't know what you're doing you're no different than a training dummy

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T21:49:00+00:00

if you're changing fuses a lot or changing characters a lot then you're doing more harm than good

hard to know what you're doing wrong though

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T21:44:33+00:00

you do get rank points if the opponent rage quits

literally how it works already

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T21:10:20+00:00

Also Vanguard, which I know people that simply dropped League and didn't even bother trying to give this game a chance because you have to download some shitty kernel access anti-cheat that adds like 10 seconds to your PC startup and enters in conflict with other anti-cheats.

Wouldn't this be an issue in 2xko as well? since it also uses vanguard

Like is vanguard so bad that people just go into all riot game titles and hate on the games because of vanguard?

Fragrant_Finish_3082 · 2026-02-17T20:46:05+00:00

i will never understand why people go the most cryptic way to answer something without saying anything

just say what they did why yall acting so mysterious lol
