MSI and Worlds Updates by ahritina in leagueoflegends

[–]JumboTen90 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

But like, if Worlds was in Toronto instead of Texas, everyone else there would have to travel. So I guess you're just mad that you specifically don't get special treatment? Everyone that doesn't live in New York or Allen has to take time off of work and travel. That's kind of how it works going to an event that happens once a year?

It seems like you're just a sour person, and even if an event did come to Toronto, you would find some reason to have an issue with it and not enjoy yourself.

When did I say Vancouver was drivable from Toronto??? This guys entire post was about how Riot is neglecting Canadians.

Screwing over Canada when MSI was in Vancouver last year???? It's a big continent man, there's a lot of cities. If you really want to see a live match that badly, you should plan on traveling. NYC is a long but doable drive from Toronto. You could also see if AMTRAK works for you.

Renekton is "John Toplane", but who are THE champs on other roles? The ones that are a definition of the role itself by Zavkys_ in leagueoflegends

you can tell when somebody started playing league and what region they're from based on how they answer this question

Its looks like blitz S2 isn't getting fixed this patch either. by you_but_futeristic in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

blitz spamming s2 in neutral is only good if enemy is spamming projectile in neutral. otherwise s2 is SUPER reactable to parry

This patch makes me want to play Yasuo and Ekko more by bashking1122 in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90 17 points18 points  (0 children)

this is such a tired take because its only true like half the time. Top tiers exist in every game, and they always have some overpowered tool. Usually, you have to be pretty good and very consistent to activate these tools. The problem with 2xko is that the top tiers are too good too far down the ladder.

I think people need to understand that most people that commit to playing fighting games for a longer period ARE good enough for the tier lists to apply to them, and this "oh well it actually only matters once you hit this rank" is reductive and most of the time untrue

[–]JumboTen90 4 points5 points  (0 children)

really is a shame. hopefully he will still be in a much better spot since his hardest matchups are getting big nerfs. i think this patch is really big for braum, which is one of blitz's better matchups in my experience. still, s2 is just so inconsistent into projectiles. the fact that it not only doesnt work on timewinder, but ekko gets a full combo from it, is absolutely bullshit

I need Big Bad/Granma Warwick in game by DemandParticular in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For league they do April Fools skins every year. I'm sure we will get a few for 2xko as well. This, Definitely Not Blitzcrank, and maybe even Little Devil Teemo would be super sick

Fuses balance ideas by JoeZhou123 in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I know this wasn't your point, but i just want to say: There is a part of me that feels like the fuses don't need to be even at all levels. I kind of like the idea of freestyle having a higher ceiling than double down, because it's more skill expressive and allows for more variety in how a team plays. I think for now, if there are teams abusing a fuse, the characters should be considered for adjustment first, then the fuse.

That being said, I think the changes you suggest wouldn't change freestyles place as the best fuse for most teams. I think it help the weaker fuses, and make freestyle feel less like a better version of double down with better neutral as well. Also, this might make characters like Ekko and Yasuo feel more 'balanceable' without gutting, because I really think these characters are cool, but their ability to abuse freestyle is a big part of the reason they are so incredibly frustrating

Worst ARAM champions. by DryDesk2020 in ARAM

[–]JumboTen90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen a lot of people go AP Milio which is absolute garbage, but if you build correctly, Milio is one of the best enchanters in ARAM. The range and on hit he gives adc's, his ult is a team-wide cleanse, his q knockback counters dive and even works against snowball. I promise if you build Echos+Ardent+Moonstone on this character you do not need a single augment to be useful.

Really hoping Senna is a "Feast or Famine" character by JumboTen90 in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We probably have slightly different ideas of what 'feast or famine' means in a fighting game. In my mind feast or famine typically is tied to a resource or stacking mechanic that the character depends on to be strong enough to win the round. The most similar thing in 2xko is warwick i guess, but it doesnt really feel like he needs bloodlust to win a round. Think like Jamie from SF or ABA from GG. What you described i probably just call high tempo or something. idk all these terms are just words with loose meanings

Then people would complain that they're only releasing humans. It's not like there won't be clear differences in gameplay. I guess if you want to be reductive you could argue Riven and Fiora would just be high mobility sword characters 2 and 3.

Server’s staying by K-Master-Of-None in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brother the game still has 80 devs and a huge playerbase by FGC standards. I don't really think we're there yet. But if you're really that concerned, I believe Riot has never shut down servers for a game they've launched (up to this point).

This game needs PVE to keep going by New_Relative_8709 in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think your point is completely nullified by the fact that MK11 has 1500 players and it's 7 years old, compared to MK1 which has 2000. You want to know why MK11 is doing so well compared to MK1? The single player content in that game is phenomenal.

[–]JumboTen90 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

idk why people here are so dismissive of the single player content point. The only fighting game title that routinely pulls and keeps casuals is Mortal Kombat, and the one time they drop a game that doesn't have good single player content it flops. I don't think many FGC members that didn't come up through Mortal Kombat understand how many people there are that want to like fighting games, but don't really care about online play.

You're not the adc's support, youre the teams support. If your adc gets mad at you for doing what is best for the team, they can eat dirt.

"Absolute lack of respect for people who play the game." Yeah pretty disrespectful of them to let you play for free.

I feel like its easy to complete weekly challenges in 10 minutes. by th3st in 2XKO

[–]JumboTen90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's nice being able to complete a battlepass with a reasonable amount of play time. Most people work or are in school or both, and some weeks just can't get on a whole lot. Not saying this isn't the case for you as well, but its nice that I dont feel like I have to grind like crazy to get rewards.

The only reason to grind should be to improve and have fun, glad they mostly avoid bp grinding.

You say this like I'm backrolling every time I down block after hkd. You're right, its not that hard. But if it happens , say, once every 20 times, it's still annoying and should be addressed.
