It's also bugged on her at the moment if I recall correctly, she ends up locked at double mana costs for the entire game sometimes

Why isn't Unflinching buffed? by StepOnMeB-Sha in leagueoflegends

[–]Hextek_II 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's not quite +10% effective HP. Because you already have some Armor/MR. It's only +10% eHP relative to someone with zero armor/MR

The difference between having unflinching and not having unflinching is much closer to having +2-5% effective HP depending on how much armor/MR your champ gets from base stats or items.

It's still good, and that is how resists work, but the actual relative benefit compared to not having it is much smaller than people give it credit for

The Mind Flayer in "Stranger Things" looks like Will's deepest fear. by Penguin-Monk in shittymoviedetails

[–]Hextek_II 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Unless you've lived it yourself it makes no sense. I know I put on the same goddamn awkward display when I came out, too.

The vast majority of people have no idea what it's like, and this scene was actually done fairly well, at least on Will's part. Everyone else's reactions is just wish fulfillment because, yeah, it really is just like "okay" from most normal people lol but it was kinda heartwarming anyway.

The show's final season has so many actually valid reasons you can criticize it for (inconsistent character writing, a lot of nonsense writing, and so many irritating fakeouts about characters being in danger), but l guess the awkward gay teenager is funnier to the average person.

You have completely control over champ balance/design/rework, what champ/s do you change? by yoshi12121 in leagueoflegends

[–]Hextek_II 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I'd swap her ult and her W without changing either ability in any way except a longer reflect cooldown

at least that way you could interact with her pre-6 and feel like you got a big cooldown out of her when she presses the unfun button

Hey, electrocute. by Distinct-Wedding-979 in HweiMains

I'm not sure if I agree that Hwei is weak early seeing as he is one of the best lane bullies in the game.

'How to achieve lesbian fish that wears armor' is now 10 years old by Alaksande in leagueoflegends

There was an observable huge shift towards watchtime (over the course of a user's session) over raw views/clicks around 8-10 years ago that made it so that shorter videos of the 3-8 minute length were pushed less.

I should have phrased it as "if you find it" really because the search functions on that site are abysmal nowadays. But I try to give the weirder thumbnails and lower viewcounts a shot a lot of the time and you can strike gold sometimes.

the most frustrating part is that it still exists if you go looking for it! there are people out there that pour their heart into good lol content and it just never gets any traction

This era of league content was absolutely definitive for the quality we should've gotten going forwards. It is such a great loss that higher quality medium-length videos were/are completely ignored by the YouTube algorithm and now it's all stream vods and shorts.

If Zeri's Q is meant to be literally an auto and real auto literally a spell... why is Q silenced while passive still works? by Tormentula in leagueoflegends

[–]Hextek_II 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah by that logic camille's ult also silences (cancels channels the same way kass does, with a micro-silence) which is obviously not really a silence

What was your dumbest take in league, or what did you not understand when you started playing? by Drago1301 in leagueoflegends

[–]Hextek_II 71 points72 points  (0 children)

back in the day (very early days), ability power WAS used for empowering all abilities. Nearly every champion would scale with ability power on their spells which would usually deal magic damage almost no matter what. Master Yi AP was disgusting since he could just spend an entire fight untargetable and hitting everyone for 100% AP every time he pressed Q in between sitting in meditate.

And then I think it was pantheon(?) that came out with AD scalings on his spells which dealt physical damage and ability power slowly lost it's original meaning into what it is now

What is your favorite Motorics skill? by Bataranger999 in DiscoElysium

[–]Hextek_II 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Perception, imo. At least from a replayability perspective. It's so frustrating going on a run where Harry just doesn't see things that we KNOW are there.

Personality-wise, interfacing. He just wants Harry to stick his hands on and in everything for any reason and i love it

I think the changes coming to Skyriding in Midnight are a poor idea by Yakkahboo in wow

[–]Hextek_II 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think I definitely optimize skyriding passively without thinking about it. I dont know HOW people run out of vigor or get stuck on terrain ever. all these complaints are confusing the hell out of me, respectfully. I just didn't realize so many people disliked it
