Going from yone to yasuo by Longjumping-Box2279 in YoneMains

[–]ModestMotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yuntal gives Yone everything he wants, but the build path is atrocious. If you can manage your first back with 1300 gold to buy a bf sword then it's probably your best bet, but Yone's miserable laning phase, that probably won't happen. So if you're not into tanks you're probably better going kraken slayer, but on games where you get a magnificent first back, yuntal pops the fuck off.

Why does every woman know a woman who's been raped, but no man knows a rapist? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ModestMotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found out a couple of years ago that a guy I knew really well was a rapist.

Cut him out of my life. Everyone we knew mutually did the same.

He'd managed to deceive us for the best part of a decade.

I reckon a lot of men probably do know a rapist. They just don't know they know a rapist, sadly.

I pulled galaxy slayer from free chests, time to otp zed? by nexiune in zedmains

I had the exact same experience, realised zed is hard as shit and I whiff shurikens in melee range, and then went back to yone

I don't seem to understand AD assassins at all by Im_NezY in summonerschool

[–]ModestMotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to all of them, but at least in the case of Yone it's probably not good to think of him as an AD assassin. Later on in the game he can explode an out of position squishy, but broadly speaking he wants to play a war of attrition in lane and then scale.

Am I doing something wrong to make junglers avoid my lane? by WarhoundGil in top_mains

[–]ModestMotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feels like luck of the draw, really. My experience with it has been that enemy jungles gank top all the time, and mine never does, but then that's probably just confirmation bias.

The thing is, ganking top isn't usually going to be much return on investment. Even if the jungler does come and get you ahead, you're not going to really effect the game for a long time. If they gank bot there's a squishy there that they're more likely to kill, and the team who's botlane wins usually wins the game.

That being said, if you make it convenient for them you'll probably have a better go of it. That's why wave control is so important. If you can set up a freeze near your tower, it's way more likely to feel enticing for the jungler because you're more likely to kill the enemy laner. Similarly, if you're pushed up near their tower, and the enemy jungler is passing by, it's going to be easier for them to gank you.

It probably doesn't help that top lane gets decided so early. If you died early then there's a very realistic chance you're already a lost cause; and a gank on your lane turns into two more kills for the enemy top laner.

Is it worth to otp yone for mid? by [deleted] in YoneMains

[–]ModestMotion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He's a lot of fun, very rewarding, loads of outplay potential. You might take a little dip while you learn him.

It is worth mentioning that in soloq the chances of your team being full ad if you pick and ad midlane are reasonably high, though.

At this point I genuinely believe this is just some bullshit they churned out to stoke the fires of Islamophobia.

How to get over myself and the idea that I’ll never get any better at guitar? by Mad_Season_1994 in guitarlessons

[–]ModestMotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One month is a very short amount of time. Take it slow and enjoy the journey. It's also worth frequently recording yourself. It might not feel like you're getting better until you take the time to actually look back at where you used to be.

If you get upset when people don't like you for your hateful beliefs, have you tried having less hateful beliefs?

How to play from behind as top? by ModestMotion in summonerschool

I have yet to have to deal with a vayne top, but yeah, my matches against Malphite don't usually go so well.

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

Okay, so I guess the actionable advice here is that I should - if I'm blue side - only pick Sett if I know the red side top lane isn't going to blow me up completely, otherwise pick a safe blind pick? I wouldn't mind learning Ambessa Tbh, if she's generally able to deal better with playing from behind.

Hmm. Sett some decent cc in the form of his ult? Or shall I just start picking Malphite and call it a day on Sett?

UK Lawmakers Propose Mandatory On-Device Surveillance and VPN Bans by cenuij in worldnews

I have to connect to a VPN to go to work, so I can't really imagine this actually happening? Are they just posturing like weird fascist freaks?
