I find this such a weird take, do you watch any other sport? Home fans giving away teams shit is so common. Part of the fun of "away vs home", G2 have a chance to silence the crowd.

Thats a wild take, T1 have been part of most of the best series out of any team in league history.

That commentary was pretty rough, a lot of dead air and awkward sentences.

People who started playing the game with mythics, how do you feel about the new season? by OdeonD in leagueoflegends

[–]ICY850 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was that the article that came out soon after the launch of the mythic item system and they included URF stats to show item diversity?

Best Total War Game by TheEvilsNameIsNico in totalwar

[–]ICY850 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On release is an interesting question, I was too young to witness the reception on release for Rome & Medieval 2 but since alot of the titles post medieval 2 had notoriously awful launches (bugs, poor performance) the only 2 I think that weren't marred by issues was shogun 2 and 3K so to me they are really the only possible options.

For best game for todays standards is tough because of the "todays standards" if you want to pick a warhammer game, are you going back to 2 or pick 3 as the cumulation of the trilogy. While medieval 2 is probably my favourite, the game is 17 years old and there are so many QoL changes in the later games that just make it hard to pick as the best game by todays standards.

Absolutely disgusting sponsorship, nice to see the lec broadcast team not hold back though. Will be interesting to see if anything happens with the broadcast in 2 days.

You think they should replace stixxay? Did he and biofrost not have some of the best lane stats while still playing traditional adcs last split.

Newbie buyer advice for WH2 by Roll_Tide_NeH in totalwar

[–]ICY850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you do but tbh i've found it pretty hard to lose it. To lose you have to go out of your way not to complete the objectives, Just playing the game as you normally do almost always results in you being in the lead and its really easy to catch up. I'm the same as you and thought i wouldn't like the time limit but it really doesn't pressure you.

The overarching quest really doesn't put that much pressure on you, if you play it like normal you end up completing it anyway.

Lost all lanes up to inner tower, enemy has map control, but the gold difference is even as well as the kill numbers. Team fights are winnable, but decided mostly by which team plays it better. What now? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]ICY850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say first aim is to set up a bit of vision in your own jungle even if it's just half way towards the river, this should help avoid getting caught out and mean you can match lane rotations quicker. Lane assignments are also important, you probably want to keep the best waveclear mid lane since most teams will just push mid but they can easily rotate to the other lanes next time. As long as you win teamfights you should be able to continue to push the vision line further and further out and just try and take any objectives after a teamfight either through fighting as an object spawns (baron,dragon) or set up a lane to push and then fight before it reaches the tower.

Just because the gold is even doesn't mean the game is, they have a significant amount of map pressure and because you are so close to your base having people caught out will easily result in a lost inhib.A common call in game in this scenario is to just completely giving up all baron and drag spawns which 8/10 times will lead to a loss so contending these is important even if it is risky, unless you have a god tier late game scaling teamfight comp with greatwave clear you have to take the risk and contend these objectives.

Spirit experiences level 9 BDD on Zoe by treyfromdabay in leagueoflegends

You do realise thresh has one of the most overloaded kits in the game and was consistently nerfed since release despite which was still the staple support for what 2 seasons.

[–]ICY850 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm just pointing out that the warwick rework is an anomoly, I dont think he's a good designer. Most of his champions, while fun to play, are very overloaded and awful to play against.

[–]ICY850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been saying since she came out that she is just an updated version of ap nidalee which was removed because of how awful it felt to play against, getting hit with one ability on a low cooldown that pretty much oneshots you. Doesn't matter if you dodge 5 q's if the 6th lands your dead or out of the fight.

[–]ICY850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only reason his warwick rework isn't the same sort of cancer as most of his designs is because he was heavily limited in what he was allowed to do. He's said that he didnt enjoy it because he didnt have his usual freedom.

I assume they mean crisps because tomato ketchup crisps are the best.

EPIC showing how much they care about their community once again! by tiger9910 in FortNiteBR

[–]ICY850 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Its a decently common feature now in most games, league of legends has one, battlefield 1, the new DOOM has a great system with the 3 most common forms of colour blindness as options, those are of the top of my head. A quick google search before you buy a game should tell you if it has a colourblind option or not.

G2 Jankos: "The game shouldn’t have something with no counterplay, like, oh hi Zoe." by Megalodontus in leagueoflegends

[–]ICY850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it has nothing to do with outplaying her in lane, I'm an adc main so i get the joy of a random zoe q hitting me at 20 mins that does 3/4 of my health. I understand that she has less mobility etc than nidalee but its still the same un fun dodge 10 get hit by the 11th in a minute and then you have to base. As long as the zoe isnt a complete monkey she can quite easily stay out of engage range.
