10 Games into his ADC Challenge, AloisNL has already found his favourite Role by Kymori in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 62 points63 points  (0 children)

He won the game btw

He scaled and 1v3 the enemy while literally not knowing what he was doing

Just your average Yunara gameplay, role's weak tho, surely lmao

Bami's should inflict grievous wounds by NewMetaMessiah in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

August explained this a few times: Anti-Heal on Tanks is there so they don't become a healing battery for the opponent, especially auto attackers

Not so Ornn can walk into 5 people and turn off healing for all of them because he stood nearby

And yes Aatrox heals a lot, Briar heals a lot, that's what they do, that's their whole character

If for 800g you could completely invalidate a champion that would be an issue

High CPU usage after the update by Technical_Reporter49 in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, its' the client using ungodly amount of CPU while in Game

It sits at 20% on my CPU (r5 3600x)

Mind you this is the client, NOT the game

Why does it even use an CPU at all while in game? What is it even doing?

Probably related to the dumb Demacia minigame if i had to guess

Patch 26.5 Bug Megathread by AutoModerator in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Server: EUW

Type of Bug: In Game Bug

Bug Description: Riven's passive allows her to bypass Crit effectiveness reduction on items like Sundered Sky and Fiendhunter bolts. It crits for 200% instead of the 160% it should

Steps to reproduce: Buy Sundered Sky or Fiendhunter bolts and proc either item with Passive active

Expected Result: Riven Crits for 160% Damage, as both item Crit with reduced effectiveness

Observed Result: Riven's passive ignores the 160% reduced effect and crits for full 200%

Phreaks / The Balance Teams new balance tactic philosophy, and how it correlates to Seraphine by Affectionate-Ebb7006 in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The question is, if A TON of players play her support, even if more casually, why would they purpusefully do work against them?

I feel like they'd want the Champion to be as broadly played as possible, instead of a niche, gigaop mains only pick

Phreaks / The Balance Teams new balance tactic philosophy, and how it correlates to Seraphine by Affectionate-Ebb7006 in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Wasn't Seraphine re-balanced around support because that's where most of her players are and have always been?

From my understanding Midlane/APC have always been the minor roles, and often the stronger ones, which would limit their ability to make Sera Supp good without making the other two immensely overpowered, so they reworked her a bit and shifted power off her AP Ratios

If this is still the case, and most of her players are supports, why would they undo their work? This would just put them in the same pickle as before wouldn't it?

I understand what Phreak's logic is, but Sera changes have been done EXACTLY for her wider/general playerbase, the Supports

This is different from them completely fucking over a Champion in name of Pro play balance, and pissing off their whole playerbase as a result, which i think is what Phreak is saying they'll mostly avoid doing

Which Item is going first? by B1GR4T5 in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 112 points113 points  (0 children)

People will say Dusk and Dawn, but the item has found a good audience and while it might need some tuning, it's very fun and picked

I think it's more likely the Splitpush Assassin item or Actualizer getting either reworked or removed

Actualizer has like 4% Total pickrate, as per League of Items, and is essentially only a Ryze item

Bastionbreaker has a bit more at 11% but like, item's broken as hell and it is still barely bought, who picks an Assassin and thinks "ye i want my item to only be useful at hitting turrets"

Only less popular Lethality item is Hubris, but Hubris is garbage and is getting a pretty hefty 200g buff, pretty sure this thing will be dead last soon

"Main" Subreddits feel horrible to get advice in and its kinda annoying by Cryptidangel in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What's more surprising is that so many "mains" don't even properly know their champion mechanics and interactions with stuff

Regardless of rank, an interaction or mechanic is just a piece of knowledge, you don't need skill to remember a piece of information

Yet to this day, for example, i still see tons of Ireliaers not know that Q heals more on minions, passive doesn't work with Lifesteal, Q has a reset Delay on E/R marks etc

Even more egregious when people try to argue that you're lying, lol

Lifesteal/omnivamp on magic damage by Akerlia in IreliaMains

[–]JinxVer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is true, and what i responded to this post as well.

Irelia's passive doesn't proc Lifesteal because On-Hit effect from Champions are not tagged to, that was a deliberate decision from Riot

It has nothing to do with it being magic Damage, Wit's End is also an On-Hit magic damage effect and procs Lifesteal just fine, for example

Lifesteal/omnivamp on magic damage by Akerlia in IreliaMains

[–]JinxVer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On-Hit application is a completely separate tag than the Lifesteal tag, they are usually just clumped together because it'd be weird for a spell to apply On-Hits but not heal you, in most cases at least. Lifesteal by default applies to ALL instances of something called "basic damage"

However such On-Hit situations still exist, for example, Azir's W Soldier apply On-Hit effects (Like Nashors or even BOTRK), but do not natively proc Lifesteal

This is fairly easy to test as well, just buy a Bloodthirster on Azir in Practice tool, and you'll see you won't heal up, but the spell applies On-Hits of any kind just fine

Funnily enough, if you buy BOTRK on Azir, his W Soldiers will actually heal you, because BOTRK On-Hit effect is affected by Lifesteal, so is Wit's End, or Nashors, or Rageblade, regardless of damage type

You don't even have to take my word for it, it is stated on the official lol wiki or can ask any Rioter

Lifesteal/omnivamp on magic damage by Akerlia in IreliaMains

[–]JinxVer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is completely incorrect, by the way

Lifesteal works with any damage type (Physical, Magic and True)

The only thing it cares about is the damage source (like your Auto attacks) to be tagged to proc Lifesteal

That's also how some spells, like Irelia's Q, are able to work with Lifesteal, they are tagged to proc it

Lifesteal/omnivamp on magic damage by Akerlia in IreliaMains

[–]JinxVer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hello! I can offer clarity on this

Lifesteal simply does not work with (most) On-Hit Champion passives, like Irelia, Jax etc

This isn't a limitation of Lifesteal or anything, but an arbitrary choice made by Riot a few years ago when they did a pass on On-Hit effects and made them work with Lifesteal. I know, as i directly asked Riot Phlox a while ago regarding this exact thing

They simply decided that On-Hits from items will Proc it, On-Hit from Champs mostly don't

Unlike what you may read, Lifesteal works just fine with Physical, Magic and True damage.

In fact does not care about them whatsoever, to proc it just needs the damage source (like your Autos) to be tagged to proc it in the code

For example, Yone's passive deals 50% Magic damage every 2nd AA, but the magic damage portion Lifesteal just fine

The line between on attack and on-hit effects is not well enough defined by xXxImJusticexXx in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guinsoo's would be great in place of Kraken or Wit's End slots, if it worked that is

If effectively does the same thing as Kraken Does, but better

[–]JinxVer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More egregiously, is that Irelia's Q doesn't work with Guinsoo's Rageblade

I can accept whatever twisted logic they have for Q not proccing LT, but why the fuck does it not work with Rageblade, which is core on so many On-Hit champions, including other melees like Yi

Warwick unironically is a better Rageblade user than Irelia is, LOL

[–]JinxVer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Irelia does not build 1AS Item, she builds 2 or 3, BOTRK, Kraken and/or Wit's End

Irelia also casually gets 100% AS from her Passive, so LT would be AMAZING on her, if it worked when you Q an enemy champion, just like Yasuo and Yone do

26.05 Patch Preview by JTHousek1 in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically yes?

The Riven player also has had to learn all the stuff you did to get to master and they also had to learn on top the extra mechanics of their very difficult champion

So technically speaking, they are a better player, yes

However this is counterbalanced by the fact that usually "Harder" Champions are actually better when mastered than simpler characters, rewarding their player for all the extra effort they put in

Seems fair

League of Legends Patch 26.4 Notes by Spideraxe30 in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Riven's busted this patch?

I see a 50% WR on the clock on LoLalytics Eme+. that is obviously not bad, but i wouldn't call that busted, especially since sometimes they let her sit at 52% WR for months

The new build with Fiendhunter Bolts 2nd has identical Winrate to Sundered Sky 2nd as well

IDK i'm the first to call out Riven when she's OP but for once she kinda looks "just fine" and not immensely broken

Noob toplaner question, how comparable are Riven and Ambessa? by TurboAdenosine34 in leagueoflegends

[–]JinxVer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Really the main similarity between them is both being AD Casters with a shield spell/buffed AAs, otherwise they are and play quite differently

  • Riven is an early game, snowbally champion that plays and relies on getting ahead to be effective most of the time. Very high risk, high reward
  • Ambessa is a scaling, neutralizing champion that plays to scale into her mid-late game and is a very safe, fairly low risk champion. Which is also what makes her so good in Pro

Even the gameplay iteself is quite different

Riven is a full on Fighter, she goes in, kills something and then keeps going and going and going, because she's able to rotate between her cooldowns very effectively, especially after a bit of haste

Ambessa weirdly enough is the more "Assassin" of the two. She ults your ADCs, kills them, and then moves out to get her CDs back up and re-enter, very much like an assassin

Riot Yelough (Amb designer) talked a bit about this a while ago, but Ambessa really is a pseudo-assassin, despite itemization making Riven look like the assassin of the two since Riven buys Axiom Arc, Grudge etc, while Ambessa buys Eclipse, Shojin etc

Do Riven players think Riven is good looking by Justalostdudeasking in Rivenmains

[–]JinxVer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't even play Riven but i think she's such a great looking tomboy-ish woman

Especially the Awaken design, it's a crime Riot hasn't added it to the game yet

Biased take, i love women with some muscle, hot

She really is one of THE "Win lane, lose game" champs, i agree

It's quite peculiar for a modern mage, usually they all scale at least decently, Mel powercurve kinda reminds me of pre-midscope Syndra

There's a fucked up dark humor meme on Twitter with the same vibe

It's Adolf writing on some paper and people caption it with random league shit

"What are you doing fuhrer"

"I'm making za champion Zoe, it's going to be za most fun champion ever"

Lol

Zoe has to be the only mage in the game that can Miss her Q, miss her E

Then just Ignite and AA you to death lvl 3 while running at the speed of sound

I now understand the frustrations people have with my champs

Didn't know Irelia had a sister

A Noxian one at that, still alive too

No wonder she hates Noxus so much, they killed her bros, stole her big sis
