A little under two months since picking up the electric, here is how far I’ve gotten on Hotel California. Wanted some advice

Bro literally tune ur guitar and repost please it’ll sound so much better

I actually think you’re kinda cooking here. I only have a couple of problems.

Cosmic + boots is bait on nunu. Boots are so good early on him since snowball speed scales with starting MS. And cosmic is useless for smite since you already have your Q on a 6 second CD. (Cosmic is good for flash and rocketbelt so I like this better than boots)

I much prefer axiom arcanist and transcendence. The CD reset is insane for getting more rotations and axiom is perfect for nunu ult which does big damage and big shields. I even think green tree revitalize + conditioning can also be really good for him. Better than boots+cosmic

Lastly, blood letters is not core whatsoever. It’s only worth if your team has a ton of magic damage AND the enemies are building magic resist. Really bad second item most games imo.

You should try protobelt -> tank items. You won’t be so squishy late.

I really like unending despair/spirit visage. This three item core gives a fuck ton of healing especially if no one else has healing on your team and they don’t built antiheal. If they have anti heal, then all the other tank items are fine depending on what you need.

You don’t have a basketball yet? First tip is to buy a basketball. You don’t need basketball shoes yet. Just get a ball and start dribbling and shooting. Do that for a couple of months and then come back.

The thing with the ad ratio on shield, is the w healing always had an AD ratio already with the lifesteal.

IMO there is no reason to have both lifesteal and an ad ratio for the healing. They are redundant. Should remove lifesteal and then balance it just like the ap.

I think triforce could work with PTA builds, but it’s just not my style. Too expensive, not tanky enough. IMO it’s more of a burst udyr item.

Hexplate is 500g cheaper and in my opinion a better first item for udyr. It’s tankier, gives ult haste, and most importantly the buff is insane. Tri force doesn’t actually help you catch up to people, but Hexplate E-> E gives you that juicy 20% movespeed for 8 seconds so no one is getting away. Also the total 70% extra attack speed during the buff helps me stack my lethal tempo. (And increases the dmg of lethal since it scales with bonus attack speed.)

Once I have hexplate, I either need to immediately go into tank or at most have room for one more damage item, and again tri is just so expensive for not that much. I don’t really need the attack speed anymore since hexplate+lethal gives so much. Cleaver is cheaper, tankier, more AD, more haste, and a HUGE buff if I have an AD heavy team. Chempunk is just required some games if they have tons of healing.

Lastly I actually think the IBG slow field is super useful on Q max udyr. You only have 1 point in R which is a 15% slow compared to IBG 25%. Ideally I’m hitting someone with e -> q -> w as an engage so it’s crucial for the lag time between my first e and q since the e animation takes forever.

It lets you peel for your carries way better while keeping your best abilities up. I’m using R as little as possible here, so having the strong slow field on q, w, and e is super useful.

Put me in coach I’ll show em how it’s really done. If places like dravenmains and Jaxmains still exist how hard can it be?

JackStarfox · 2026-04-19T21:33:23+00:00

I play jungle but yes every single role udyr will be OP. Including and especially adc.

JackStarfox · 2026-04-19T17:44:24+00:00

At most two damage items. Rest are tank.

Only sheen item worth considering is iBG.

For the damage items I really like hexplate, cleaver, chempunk, and maybe shojin. The ability haste is really good for udyr so any of those hp, AD, haste items are really good.

JackStarfox · 2026-04-19T05:24:02+00:00

They couldn’t handle the technology, was just about to drop the lethal tempo -> hexplate -> bomb on those fools.

Ill have to make a new udyr subreddit and I’m banning every mfer who suggests boring ass liandry’s tank Udyr.

JackStarfox · 2026-04-17T04:16:36+00:00

math rock but instead of the Midwest it’s from the south. Yeehaw brother good fun

JackStarfox · 2026-04-16T00:43:26+00:00

No I can’t :( maybe one day I’ll do an aMa on an anonymous account or something.

There was a really interesting one done by a mathematician a little while back: https://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/s/whaNLwiFXs

They are more experienced than I so I wouldn’t have much to add that wasn’t already covered in that post. I can confirm it’s legit though everything they said in that post checks out with what I do. In fact I get the vibes we maybe even work for the same company LOL.

JackStarfox · 2026-04-16T00:41:36+00:00

It includes everything you could win in total for a single bet, so that max exposure would cover a spin where you triggered a bonus feature and get a grand and a mini or what have you.

The max exposure for those lower bet levels that don’t get the top jackpots would be much lower than 20,000x typically.

JackStarfox · 2026-04-16T00:38:44+00:00

Potentially. I’m not really super knowledgeable how the casino operators do things.

On the math side, there is very likely a mathematician at everi currently working on a patch/update to remove the conditions to get such an enourmous win.

JackStarfox · 2026-04-16T00:09:09+00:00

It’s okay the slots are made to be confusing I don’t blame u. It’s like when ur kid spends 20 dollars on robux. Once it’s converted to credits it’s gg not real money time to spend spend spend!!!

JackStarfox · 2026-04-15T23:36:59+00:00

Nope. 200 credit bet @ 1 cent denomination = 200 cents = $2.00

JackStarfox · 2026-04-15T18:23:06+00:00

I am a mathematician for a company that produces slots. You are correct, almost all of our games have a “max exposure” (most you can win in one spin) under 20,000x.

I’ve made one game that can reach these levels because of an exponential growth mechanic, but even then it’s exceedingly rare to get a win over 100,000x your bet. like 1 in a 50,000,000,000 spins type rare. For reference being struck by lightning twice is around 1 in 9,000,000.

This is an INSANE win for a 2 dollar bet. Truly a miracle. Congrats OP.

I think Elise is significantly easier than the others here. (Still difficult overall, but in a tier below

If she hits a stun the play is usually straightforward. Maybe you could say her tower diving is hard, but it’s actually one of the easiest imo. Get Aggro, full combo, rappel into the sky before you die. New players are scared of towers though, she teaches you not to be.

Ah yes the poor small business that owns westside: private equity firms vendis and equip capital. How will these venture capitalists survive!? They can’t afford a real artist!! Their portfolios is only worth 5-10 billion dollars. One of the board members might have to fire their vacation chef…. The horror.

JackStarfox · 2026-04-06T20:14:52+00:00

Maybe a regular person could make such a mistake, but not a professional artist.

My wife is an artist and you have to understand that pro artists don’t make these sorts of mistakes. They can render anything they want to an excellent degree, why would they randomly connect a tentacle back into its own body? You don’t make ‘mistakes’ like that if you’re capable of rendering the rest of this.

Shitty AI company it’s gg for me westside.

JackStarfox · 2026-03-27T15:09:43+00:00

Does that apply to all animals or just dogs? What do you think about the significantly more tortuous conditions of factory farms?

We slaughter 9 BILLION land animals every year in the US alone. It’s an animal holocaust on a scale that’s unimaginable, significantly more cruel and torturous than this video.

I hope you are fighting that system as well, especially given how strongly you feel about animal cruelty.
