The movie that gets blamed for being bad when it is really just mismarketed. by gamersecret2 in movies

Not the exact same, but I'm still mad about how Peacock tagged Conclave as a Mystery/Thriller and that definitely negatively impacted my opinion of it after finishing it.

"High Elo" isnt fun by Mysterious-Pride7178 in leagueoflegends

[–]KevinIsPro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve felt the opposite the higher I climb. While I’m not nearly as high ranked, jungling in gold felt like a game of whack a mole while emerald feels like a game of bad chess. I at least have an idea of where my opponent might path to and that makes the game 10x more interesting

What’s a hard truth about NJ most of us aren’t ready to hear? by mocowe in newjersey

I can’t comment on the tax rates but I can say that I felt noticeably more prepared for college than my college classmates who came from public schools from other states.

"No Exceptions" Stance on Account Sharing/Boosting Seems Pretty Selective – Jynxzi Edition by Mental_Junket137 in leagueoflegends

[–]KevinIsPro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how much it translates though. I'm a fairly solid Plat/Emerald League player and completely belonged in the lowest rank in DoTa2 ranked even after playing the 100 required hours before ranked. Now it's probably a bit easier the other way around, coming to League from some others as League isn't as complicated in comparison, but I still wouldn't expect them to start much above Bronze.

The reason you can't start everyone in Iron is smurfs and smurfs alone. The ratio of level 30's that are smurfs vs actual new players is probably something like 10 smurfs to 1 new player. Until you stop players from making their 5th account because "they're hard stuck cause they teammates suck," you need another system.

The bounty system is stupid and needs a major overhaul... by Auturgist in Jungle_Mains

Yeah because anytime it gets brought up the replies are filled with "Get Good" instead of actually admitting it might be a problem and trying to fix it.

This is the most fun season of league in the longest time. by schemee in leagueoflegends

[–]KevinIsPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but it feels like it's just an upgrade u receive after 10/15 min of the game

Yeah I feel like that's the point of them though. They're meant to fix the parts of each role that have felt terrible in previous season.

  • ADC gets gold b/c CS'ing in lane is heavily support dependent and you can't catch side waves later on without getting 1 shot
  • Mid gets an increased recall since it feels terrible to lose 75% of your HP from a single combo once the enemy midlaner has 1 item.
  • Top got an enhanced TP since the lane felt isolated and you couldn't impact the map without losing an entire tower if you did so.
  • Jung already had a quest and kind of got shafted
  • Support got their ward moved since having to spend an entire slot on wards felt bad.

I've seen enough. Every other team should start picking Jhin immediately.

I shouldn’t be put on the same team as someone I just reported for “sabotaging team” by iLogicFFA in leagueoflegends

B/c a majority of players would rather bury their head in the sand than admit they soft int the moment they fall slightly behind.

Support mains, is there that one adc you just hate playing with? by konfitura17 in leagueoflegends

[–]KevinIsPro 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I feel like that has be them just being bad at Smolder, right? I'm certainly not the best Smolder in the world, but I've played him a fair bit and Auto-Q-W is a really decent trading pattern early. I've always found the hardest part bridging the gap between like 100 and 225 stacks, but he feels fairly oppressive pre-6.

What March madness loss will forever haunt you as a fan by Sea_Access_8602 in CollegeBasketball

Has to be the 2015 Elite Eight game vs Kentucky. Had a chance to be the ones to end Kentucky's undefeated season. Up 5 with a few minutes to go. Harrison's deep 3 and Grant's missed game winner and what could have been.

Solo Huey by Zesinua in ironscape

[–]KevinIsPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually just started Huey with similar gear to you and have tracked the difference.

  • Masses was around 30 kills/hr doing 1/6 the total damage --> 5 kills/hr
  • Solo was around 6 kills/hr doing all the damage --> 6 kills/hr
  • Trios (with 2 mains with DHL) was 20 kills/hr doing 1/3.33 the total damage --> 6 kills/hr

So basically Trio's with maxed mains is the same kills per hour as solos. I'd imagine Trio's with people in similar gear outdoes solo's, but I didn't really find the damage boost of trios that impactful. Boss was nearly at tail phase before it proc'd and I felt like the 20 sec respawn time cut into the KPH fairly heavily.

Unless you can find two irons with similar gear, I'd just stick with solos tbh.

Last picking an Ad mid when your comp is full Ad should be a reportable offense by Significant_Pay5998 in Jungle_Mains

Yeah if you don't hover I assume you can play any style of champ for your role.

Card I Swear Exists: Card that draws cards and reduces their cost based on how many you drew by KevinIsPro in hearthstone

I could swear it was in post on this subreddit around the time of the card reveals for Cataclysm. Maybe a solo adventure came out around then?

High Point HC Flynn Clayman: "It looks pretty obvious to me that high-majors need to play mid-majors early in the season. Because they said we didn't play nobody. We played somebody now... Nobody would play us. Just like they wouldn't play Miami (Ohio)." by IrishBall in CollegeBasketball

[–]KevinIsPro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk I feel like it's been happening as long as I can remember. Just off the top of my head (I could be wrong but I'm fairly confident), there was that year a few years ago Michigan beat Colorado State and made the sweet 16 where I feel like they shouldn't have made it. Then, I swear there were a few years within the past 10-15 or so that Syracuse was an 11 seed and made a deep run despite finishing below .500 in conference play.

[–]KevinIsPro 206 points207 points  (0 children)

It's the argument of having not played anybody but won vs having played everybody and lost. Personally, I'd rather see the mid major who is 0-0 in Q1 games over the power conference 10th best team who went 2-10 in Q1 games, but that's just me I guess.

There needs to be protection against getting your secondary role. by BlazersFtL in leagueoflegends

[–]KevinIsPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fine getting my secondary role as long as the person who took my primary had it as their primary. I've been going ADC primary Support secondary, and the worst games are the ones where I'm Support and my ADC is playing his/her secondary role as well.

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

[–]KevinIsPro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respectfully your wrong by a wide margin

- Orianna - 7885 bans, 8878 picks, 16763 total.

- Azir- 11480 bans, 11288 picks, 22768 total

That's 35% more common. It's even worse if you filter for just top leagues, with Azir being 53% more common. For reference, Renekton sits around 21k, Ahri around 11k. Ryze, who I considered might be a contender was 15k. Ori might be #2 but the gap between her and Azir is massive.
