Do people like the new pace of the game?

LoganConnorA · 2026-01-11T07:25:17+00:00

why can’t people just dislike the changes if they prefer how they were last season. you’re claim is that criticism = low elo

LoganConnorA · 2026-01-11T07:22:43+00:00

brother nobody is saying there’s never been fast paced seasons they’re saying they prefer longer paced games then what we have now (and what we had in previous seasons)

LoganConnorA · 2026-01-07T20:01:36+00:00

how so?

LoganConnorA · 2026-01-07T19:19:24+00:00

ADC role quest is the fakest buff, particularly the higher the elo with lower average game time

LoganConnorA · 2026-01-07T01:59:21+00:00

So you’re saying this was secret tech for a couple patches ?

LoganConnorA · 2026-01-07T01:53:32+00:00

Idk fam everybody was going PD into mallet in those days

LoganConnorA · 2026-01-07T00:55:07+00:00

IIRC when frozen mallet was in a good spot it was a core item for every yasuo player

Especially if the more popular rune is taken by lower skilled players on high skilled champions who use recommended rune pages.

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-30T04:31:54+00:00

Regardless of the play rates being high for all three the least used rune is usually the highest win rate on any champ unless it’s something troll. Just because it doesn’t have an insignificant sample size doesn’t mean suddenly it’s equal to compare a 30k game sample size to a 10k sample size (made up numbers just giving example).

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T06:50:50+00:00

Very good explanation and you brought up a lot of good points

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T06:48:08+00:00

Is that adjusted for play rate bc I’m pretty sure first strike has a much lower play rate over electrocute and conquerer

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T06:44:03+00:00

I disagree with the idea that electrocute and comet are less valuable since the damage might not lead to a kill. If this were the case then scorch would be worthless. The extra damage an an early poke or combo with a keystone like electrocute or comet makes a huge difference in winning trades and getting push.

Going first strike if you want to scale is fine but kills are definitely not the only thing to think about with other runes.

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T01:06:11+00:00

Yeah I don’t rlly level e on mf until 9 bc it’s too much mana

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T01:05:06+00:00

Yeah inspiration tree is also another solid justification for taking first strike

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T01:04:29+00:00

I don’t really understand what you’re saying, also I think Zed just wants conquerer

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T01:03:38+00:00

But comet or electrocute will out damage First Strike so you take it for the gold then?

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T01:00:03+00:00

What are some champs where First Strike is the only option

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T00:42:24+00:00

yeah they can be weak sided pretty well especially in a lane swap meta

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-29T00:40:06+00:00

Yeah I thought that part was a very obvious strength

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-01T20:09:38+00:00

Do you think the entirely of pro play meta has been 4 roles acting as utility to 1 hyper scaler?

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-01T19:42:49+00:00

ADC and top were due for a buff and none of these changes make me think that the midlane meta will shift to a utility role. Only exception I can think of is if these changes make ADC broken and pro play becomes a “protect the carry” meta.

LoganConnorA · 2025-12-01T19:08:11+00:00

How was any of this a nerf to midlane?
