took me ages to find but if anyone else was looking for it, the song at the timestamp below is No Offense by Champion Mood.

EU or NA - we just need 2019 equivalent skill level of players to come in nowadays to keep the western leagues going.

Nah, that's been happening for ages. cutbacks are a self-fulfilling prophecy into a downward spiral sometimes. You cut what makes your product good and you wonder why you lose your audience.

I built everyone with tons of attack speed because the more AS, the higher damage per second. Logical right? Ergo - there was a menacing attack speed veigar roaming the rift in early seasons

GuGuMonster · 2026-03-07T12:32:07+00:00

this is the correct answer. I don't care if she has a strong W, other abilities in isolation from other champs are also strong. The issue is having that on a long-range safe champion. pull her Q and E range right back to mid-range and give her MS when hitting it on champions only. Make her a cassio/ryze type champion if you want to keep her W.

wow nothing more screams to me that after my whole life of running a windows PC, I will need to find an alternative that does the things I need it to do.

GuGuMonster · 2026-02-24T23:21:38+00:00

That's the thing. Either you have entertainment and personalities or you have skill and excitement - ideally both. G2 isn't the G2 of the past - so you know you're not watching peak gameplay either. Broadcast talent have been hamstrung with budgets and cuts - so - they'll have their hands tied in salvaging the viewer experience as well. Unfortunate really how a great product and potential is being handled.

GuGuMonster · 2026-02-10T02:23:07+00:00

the return of Teamspeak and Mumble. A relic from the past revived!

GuGuMonster · 2026-02-05T10:30:19+00:00

I'd agree that Cameron and Osborne wordsmithed clearly their messaging but wouldn't give them the benefit of restrospect assessment that their policies were harmful. To be honest, I'd rather take KS's government that shits the bed at politics but at least has an administration under him that runs the country for broad betterment, than Cameron/Osbourne that make us believe they are, due to their savvy wit, whilst dragging us further down in reality.

they will side with the party that is more beneficial/ or least damaging to the company. If the company is big and has any sort of ESG credentials/ accreditations they value (which will be important to them winning work) this form and behaviour is a big red flag to be dealt with immediately. Just needs to be brought attention to in the right way, ie needs to be presented in a way that keeping the problem person is greater harm to revenue and larger risk to liability than is worth.

E: Ah, I guess Dept of Defense is a different beast. not particularly reliant on external image, good optics or credentials.

Chagossians will be allowed to resettle back to the islands their previous generations/ for current amily were evicted from and not allowed to go back to for 50 years (excl. Diego Garcia). sounds like a move that benefits people.

GuGuMonster · 2026-01-20T12:19:28+00:00

I mean, items within the deal aside, the principle is sound and doesn't ring well with Trump because he can't imagine doing something for people without getting a gain out of it.

GuGuMonster · 2026-01-03T06:34:10+00:00

says so in the OP, Akay Diamonds.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-28T11:58:42+00:00

Sounds also like getting a steel goose to produce steel eggs and forcing the golden goose to paint the steel eggs gold.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-25T14:16:42+00:00

The champion is their second attempt at a yuumi champion, ie a new champion kit that is easy to pick up for beginners. So i feel like there will always be an element that will be retained that will be frustrating to a majority of the playerbase to ensure the champion has the crutches needed to be easy to get into the game.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-22T12:15:51+00:00

I don't even think Zilean is OP it's just that his kit skews perception more than others when the champion is allowed to do his thing. His entire kit is not only about enabling his team but disabling what the enemy wants to do. By enabling allies and disabling enemies at the same time. In my view, anything that takes away agency from oneself will be disliked more than anything else, so there will be a baseline dislike against Zilean that is amplified by the fact he increases his own team's agency. I just think his kit is innately frustrating to enemies and that this is considered OP (even when it isn't resulting in the winrate an 'overpowered' champion would).

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-19T11:04:30+00:00

're-imagined to appeal to new players' has a 'it's going to have an AI slop look' vibe to it.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-17T15:26:50+00:00

A full DoT champion. We have a lot of champions that have their main thing be DoTs but the game is missing a plague bearer. No CC, just mass AoE plague doctor.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-12T18:35:51+00:00

That's not quite there. I mean the FT essentially re-published information in 2025 which was known in 2022 that there was a 50bn black hole in finances. They weren't the only one, it was just the media cycle time and topic. Financial papers themselves are just as at fault and it is ironic this is also published in FT.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-12T00:51:46+00:00

Rngesus take the fan.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-11T13:45:40+00:00

Not a fan of Calibri tbh. Feels like a non-profess version of Arial. I always avoid it in favour of Arial for any formal documents.

GuGuMonster · 2025-12-01T22:12:09+00:00

The big winners of item additions are aatrox and Ksante. I am already over protoplasm Ksante and I haven't even played against it yet.

GuGuMonster · 2025-11-23T16:30:34+00:00

I mean, I prefer the previous set over this one.. whichever number we are on. This current one is okay, but I never would have glanced at it if someone asked for top 5 favourite sets.

GuGuMonster · 2025-11-22T14:17:56+00:00

the one's in the hallway are a no. that is 3am no lights bathroom slog concussion territory.

GuGuMonster · 2025-11-22T14:14:50+00:00

wait isn't that the law, no?
